THE HONORABLE JACOB NEFF.

z T no time in the Republican State Convention
! was the enthusiasm greater than at the nom
nation of Jacob Neff for the Office of Lieu
tenant Governor. Throughout the State there was
felt the delighted pride in the choice His nom
ination everywhere ratified with the heart well
with the brain, for honest Jacob Nef is one Of
those genial hole-soued men whom the people love
and whom they always glad to honor and to ele-
vate to high office.
No other completely represents all Califor-
MIA Mr. Neff. He has been identified with its his
tory and its advancement from the days OF the pio-
neers. He is known in the city and in the country
among the farmers of the valleys and among the
miners of the mountains Gifted in high degree
with the faculty of making and retaining friendships
he his personal friends by the thousands while
his reputation has for him the esteem OF thou
sands more who have never met him.
1t has not been by good fortune or by popular
caprice that Mr. Nef has won this high place in the
esteem of the community 1t is his because he has
tied it. He has made friends among all classes oil
people because he has shown himself friendly to all
classes. He has been kindly, hospitable helpful, in
all the relations of life He has not lived for himself
alone. He has borne his share of public duties and
has been faithful and energetic in the perform
ance of them the conduct of his private business
He can, therefore, upon the permanence OF the
esteem of his friends. neighbors and fellow citizens
because it is based upon the solid foundation OF SER
vice rendered and good work we'll done.
So great is the personal popularity of Mr.. Ne that
many persons apt to overlook the political reasons
why his election should be brought about. The office
of Lieutenant Governor is by means unirnport-
ant one the fact that he succeeds the
ernorshp under certain contingencies he is charged
with the duty of presiding the deliberations OF
the Senate and has therefore considerable power and
influence in the direction OF legislation. A Demo
cratic Lieutenant Governor could seriously hamper
Republican Senate in carrying out policies for the
general welfare, while Republican Lieutenant Gov
ernor could and would materially facilitate their
adoption and enactment
Mr.. Neff is peculiarly well fitted to perform the
duties of president of the Senate His abilities
presiding officer of deberative bodies we'll known
They have been often demonstrated. His knowledge
OF parliamentary law has been gained by large ex-
perience as we'll as by study. He is firm, just impair
tal and prompt
The voters in this campaign who have long been
residents of California hardly need urging cast
their ballots for grand old Jacob Neff He is dear
both the pioneers and to the native He rep
alike the capital and the labor of the State
the patriotism and the industries of the people His
personal popularity and political strength taken to-
gether render him invincible by any opponent. Let
his election be given by majority the State can be
proud of.

AN INSULT TO CITIZENS.
poundkeeper.

I HAT do the residents and voters in the Third,
AAf Fifth, Seventh, Ninth and Tenth wards think
of Mr. Phean's assertion that no man among
them is qualified to be Supervisor? What do they
think OF his acts and advice by which each of these
wards has been colonized with candidate of his
selection? How do they receive his 'holier than
thou suggestion OF their universal unftness to hold
public Office? How will they vote on election day
with the sting OF this insult still hot upon their faces
and burning in their hearts?
Mr. Phelan declares that his committee on nomina-
ton reported to his Committee of One Hundred that
Suitable" could not be found in any one of
these wards for the office of Supervisor What does
Mr. Phelan mean by suitable men? Does he mean
honest men? Surely there must be one honest man in
these five wards Does he mean capable men? Surely
in this large section of city there is one man at
least both honest and capable enough to be Super
visor. What, then does Mr.. Phelan mean by the
term Suitable mem? Perhaps he means Service
able men" If SO, is quite probable that Mr. Phean
not able to pick out any of his sort of Service
able man" in any of those FIVE wards But even
that should not have tempted him to commit the mis-
demeanor of inducing five other men to commit a
wrong.
