1ll-Gotten Possession.-vA IL. 1e. l6.
"Ahab rose to go down to the vineyard
Of Naboth:" The Septuagipt adds that
he rent his clothes and put on sack-
cloth. as though shocked at his crime,
and anxious to prove his innocence to
his own conscience and to the people.
But the hypocrisy OF the act waeshown
by his willingness to accept the fruita
Of his crime.
At the same time news of the black
crime had come to Elijah, probably in
his lonely retreat in some cave at Car
mel. God bade him go down and meet
Ahab in the vineyard. When Ahab
came to the vineyard "to take posses
sion of it," there stood the prophet in
his hairy garb.
Half in anger, half in anguish, Ahab
cried: "Hast thou found me, o mine
enemy?"
Il have found thee" said the prophet,
speaking in Jehovah's name. 'SThou
hast sold thyself to work evil before
me, and will requite it and extinguisb
thee before me. Surely the Lord saw
yesternight the blood of Naboth and
the blood Of his sons."-Septuagint.

MUST STAY AT MANILA.
General Otis Reports That He Cannot
Spare Any of the Troops
Now There,

WASHINGTON. Nov. 15.-Great pressure
is being brought upon the war department
TO have the volunteer troops now in the
Philippines return to this country. Nearly
every state that has troops stationed at
Manila has asked. through its governor or
representatives in congress. that these
troops be sent home. Some of these letters
published in the state papers at the homes
of the enlisted men have created wave
of sympathy for the volunteers in far-oS
Manila. While they do not recount very
great hardships, except among those who
are i'll. they do show that the life is very
obnoxious. and that the duty of policing
the city of Manila and remaining inact-
i've is very disagreeable.
II is said at the war department that
there is no way of relieving these troops
from duty in the Philippines at the present
time. The uncertain conditions that exist
in the island of LuZon make it utterly
impossible to get along with Il smaller
number than are stationed there at pres
ent. General Otis has been asked by cable
If troops could be spared and has replied
in the negative.
The great demand that has been made
for the muster out of volunteer regiments
or individual members of such regiments
will form the basis of a strong recon-
mendation in the annual message of the
president for increase in the regular
army. This new force will be needed TO
take the place of the volunteers who desire
to return hcme and leave the service.

 Norval of Merced nominated San Francisco. He said that he expressed the sentiments of country delegates when he declared that they wished to combine with the business of the con- vention some of the pleasures that are to be found only in the metropolis.

 Governor Budd said he did not appear as the partisan of either Sacramento or Santa Cruz. but he was opposed to holding the convention in San Fran cisco. He referred to the convention held here four years ago and said that at that time the delegates wanted to enjoy themselves so badly that they held an adjourned session in the even ing and made nominations by proxy. The result was that some of the nomi- nees were bolted by the party and others were defeated He thought great deal of time and care should be

Time Not Fixed, Because Fusion Promoters Have Not Yet Settled
 Their Differences.

Sacramento has been named as the place where the next Democratic State convention is to be held. This was de- cided at a meeting of the State Central Committee held yesterday at the Cali fornia Hotel
 The date at which the convention is to be beld is not fixed, for the reason that the Democratic party has not yet surrendered all hope of fusion with the Populists and Silver Republican parties, and 1t is hoped that delay in fixing the date of the convention will give the pro- motors of fusion time in which to come to some agreement.
 The selection of a place for the hold ing of the convention developed a strong rivalry between Sacramento and Santa Cruz. and for more than an hour the attention of the committee was taken up by the orators to whom was delegated the task of setting forth the various reasons why one place or the other should be selected. San Francisco was also placed in the list of contest ants. but the local delegation in the committee showed no inclination to support the claims of the metropolis and the name was withdrawn before the question came to a vote. The Los Angeles delegation was prepared to vote for San Francisco. but when it became apparent that the convention was not wanted here they took their choice between the two remaining can didates. some voting for Sacramento and others for Santa Cruz
 As soon as the committee was called
 
 stated that the object or the meeting was the fixing of the time and place for the holding of the State convention, a motion was made and carried authoriz- ing outsiders who held proxies to take part in the proceedings. As events proved this was a move favorable to the interests of Sacramento, as a ma jority of the proxies voted wererecorded

 Whereas, It is rumored that Boss Buck lev and his push are seeking to control the Fire Department under the new char ter and are now in an underhanded man. ner claiming recognition as body from the Democratic Committee cs one Hun dred which recognition, if granted, would merit and deserve defeat at the polls; and as watchful and determined public will expose and oppose the viper-like head of corrupt bosses whenever found in this city hereafter be 1t
 Resolved That while we labored hard and earnestly for the new charter, we Will also labor to expose to public gaze and scorn the schemers or push of Buckley, or a less offensive boss; and, further, that long and hard as were our struggles for the new charter, we would rather now see 1t killed in the Legislature than see Buck ley, his minions, or any of their kind in control of any department of our city government under it.
 Resolved, That as our Fire Department under it's present chief is the most eff cient department Of our city government be protected from the grasp. of Buckley or any other boss, free of politics and we must not allow the success of the new charter to be a loophole for the worst boss to enter by, while less dangerous bosses are being turned out.
 Resolved, That we, take no action in regard to opposing the granting of li- censes or business privileges in the dis trict so long as they are properly con- ducted under police regulation, as we feel that in no camp in the world of the size of Camp Merritt is there such good order and gentlemanly department and pride among the soldiers as is exhibited here, and they are not the class of men who are in need of guardians or restrictions; but they are what we all are proud of American soldiers in America We be-
