senatorship to Southern California The
only real opposition to this arrangement
comes from the Call and Spreckels, from the
Chronicle and from the personal following
of the several candidates in the field The
opposition to Mr.. Bulla in this part of the
state, eliminating the fight for governor
is not serious. The candidacy Of Grant Is
q bubble and is liable to burst at any time.
II the legislature, unfortunately for the
people, shall be again Republican. the
chances of Mr.. Bulla for election to the
United States senate are far better than any
other candidate in the field. But 1t is i'm
possible to foretell the changes which time
and many other things in politics may bring
about. 1t will be long time before the cleo
ton of a successor to Senator White and the
checkerboard of politics may present an en-
tirely different aspect when that time shall
have arrived. And besides this, while the
candidacy of Mr.. Gage is now not looked
upon with universal favor in this part of the
state, vet it would not be strange (nothing
is strange in politics. if there should be
change of sentiment towards him. He GER
tainly has some following and will perhaps
gain some strength as time passes, and just
what Importance to attach to his candidacy
as a determining factor in Mr.. Bulla's fight
is impossible at this time to determine.
Since writing the above Polticus has had
thrust at him an editorial in Wednesdays
Times of this city entitled "Where the
Times Stands" which has paralyZed the
political situation and probably the public
also, Where the Times stands in matters
political is of course important A few
weeks ago it announced Mr. Gage as cam
didate for governor Everybody thought
they knew then where the Times stood.
From that time to this the Times has been
silent People began to mistrust that the
Times was lying instead of standing, and
have been waiting patiently to learn from
II where it stands, but the sad and disap-
pointing feature of ."Where the Times
Stands is that no one can tell from this
editorial whether it stands for Gage or At
torney General Fitzgerald or for the sena-
torship or the governorship. Instead of in
forming the public where 1t stands, this
editoria! would seem to be a wall Of ''Where
II Ought to Have Stood" 1t says: 1.-THE
Times is free to confess that it would have
preferred to have Mr.. Gage stand as can
didate for the United tSates senate"
Closely following this it says it would like
to support Fitzgerald for governor. Con-
corning the senatorship it slaps Bula in the
| face by saying 1--WE must have no small men
| or untried men in the United tSates senate"
| The Times has volunteered to tell the peo-
| pie where it stands, but it has left them in
deep darkness concerning the very matter
| it pretends to enlighten them upon. The
truth Is the Times has Topped and Mr.. Gage
has Topped. Henceforth, 1t is surmsed, the
Times stands for Fitzgerald for governor
and Gage for senator. Fitzgerald is from
the north. Gage is physically larger man
| than Bulla. POLITICUS.

The nomination for state printer on both
sides of the house is prize which is being
played for by several in both ends of the
state. AL Johnston, who has several times
over earned an unsavory reputation In con-
nection with this office, and whom Gov
ernor Budd turned down and out by pre-
venting an appropriation, wants the Re
publican nomination in the hope that Re-
publican governor will be elected and that
he will thus be afforded an opportunity to
make up for lost time. John Wicker of San
Luis Obispo, Martin C. Neuner of Los An
geles and William Shannon of San Fran
cisco also want the same nomination. On
the Democratic side Ed Pueschel of Visalia,
receiver of the United States land office at
that place, wants the nomination. San
Francisco has three candidates In the per-
sons of H. Ward, j. ]. Currey and William
Benoist. In this city Robert Y. Mcbride Is
a candidate, and from all indications he will
have the Los Angeles delegation back of
him, which, as there are but few candidates
in this part of the state, will be powerful
factor.

The United States senatorial situation,
from Republican standpoint, is seriously
compicating Republican politics. In the
first place there are dozen aspiring indi-
viduals who would like to succeed Senator
White. The San Francisco Call or Mr..
Spreckels, has an unnamed and an unknown
candidate. Some people believe it Is Spreck-
els himself, while others say if it is not
Spreckels it is some one whom Spreckels
can handle to his advantage, and they point
out the fact that Spreckels interests are
so sweet and great that it is necessary for
him to control the senatorial situation
and nominee The Call is the mouthpiece of
Spreckels and grinds out column after col
umn of political stuff for the purpose of
convincing the dear public that the senator
ship must go to the north and of course to
the Spreckels following. M. H. de Young
of the Chronicle, for the third time, Is try
ing to land himself at Washington. AS a
politician De Young has proved himself a
fiat failure. The nearest he ever came to
catching hold on public office was when he
was given the management of the Midwn-
ter fair at San Francisco some four years
ago, for which he did good work and proved
himself to be good manager. Just now he
wants also to be director general for the
United States at the Paris exposition. The
Pacific coast delegation of senators and rep
resetnatives have laid his claims and plead
ed his cause before President Mckinley, and
it will not be surprising If some of these
friends will by this means find an easy way
to wean him from the senatorial bottle U
S. Grant, jr., is still in the senatorial race
and probably will remain there until he is
knocked out. Milton Green is doing the pol
itics for him and this has led to the belief
that Senator Perkins is backing Grants
candidacy, for it is pointed out that, ont
withstanding Perkins denial, the men who
are most active in making Grants canvass
are the personal friends and appontees Of
| Perkins. Other names have been mentioned
in connection with the senatorship. EX-
Governor Markham, 1t is hinted will be 6
dark horse, but there is onthing to indicate
that he is making a canvass. f. #. Preston
! of San AAateo has also been pointed out a!
| probable candidate. George Knight o.
San Francisco is on the list and Sam Short
ridge of course is and always will be in tn,
race until he dies or is ruled off the track.
AS the senatorial situation stands today
Mr.. Bula, it would appear, is far in advance
of any other aspirant. The northern par
of the state has practically conceded thu

larger portion Of our Navy under com
mand ofAdmiral Sampson is daily bonn
harding the fortifcltions in Cuba. From
the situation thus disclosed a reasonable
inference follows that the war cannot
last much longer. Apart from freeing
a cruelty ruled people the war will give
notice to the world Of the kind Of brave
" that is inherent in the bosoms of the
sons Of the Stars and Stripes. And for
ibe future the United States is master
