POPULAR APPRECIATION.

IRON the rate at which subscriptions have been
coming in to The Call since the announcement
OF the publication OF the course OF home circle
studies is evident the people fully appreciate the
value Of such studies and intend to profit by them
1t is true that much OF the increase OF subscriptions
is due to the prevailing prosperity OF the State, the
approach of the holiday season and to other
which at this time OF the year tend promote
the demand for newspapers but when ample allow
is made for the subscriptions due such causes
there remains vast increase which be accounted
for upon other ground than that of the popular
appreciation OF the able series OF papers OF an educa-
tiona character which The Call is now publishing
SO prompt response the part of the public TO
this undertaking is in the highest degree gratifying
The studies are OF nature that appeals to the intel
ligence Of the community The widespread favor with
which they have been received is therefore an evil
dence that among the people OF California there are
thousands who know the full worth of the highest
culture and who literally support every effort to at
tain it.
New subscriptions come in every day and daily
counted by the hundreds They received from
every part OF the State This is proof that the bet
fer the studies are understood the they are
approved AS the series goes the circle OF readers
widens. and each new reader is a advocate com
inending and approving the Thus the crcula-
ton OF The Cah augments with surprising rapidity
both in the city and in the country, and that too,
among the best class of readers

MAUD AND THE JUDGE AGAIN.

Maud Muller jumped on her time-worn
bike
For an evening hit at the dusty pike.
An old drop frame of way down gear.
With rattle the sleeping dead could
hear.
The Judge came pounding along behind,
Out airing his great judicial mind.
He noted the figure neat and trim
And graceful motion of hidden limb.
And he said to himself in his grave de-
What's matter with Maudie? She's all
right"
He drew beside her and asked her fiat
Why she rode such an old Ice cart as that
And she said saleslady could i'll support
Such wheel as the Judge of the District
Court.
He told her she could on a chainless ride,
With a diamond frame, If she'd be his
bride.
Or, If she would bust up his solo life,
They would tandem together as man and
wife.
Maud bit at the bait like a hungry trout,
And the old Judge smiled as he yanked
her out
They ride on a tandem now, of course, -,
But Maud has to work like treadmill
horse.
But the Judge has learned how to sit and
Shrk,
And let his darling do all the FORK.
He weighs two hundred and ffty-one,
But the poor girl thinks it an even ton.
And she often says, with a pain-rent
heart:
81 wish l was back in my old ice CART"
"Of all the true words that I ever spake,
The truest are these: He's bloomin
fake!

Ignorant and dishonest according to the fine and
argumentative Characterization OF Governor NC
Cord, must see that the vast acreage needu OF rri-
CATION in California, in private ownership Is
expressly excluded from Federal benefit by the very
reason for which that benefit is asked The public
domain is Federal property and the constitution gives
Congress the power dispose of it, and that carries
the power to appropriate money TO make it market
able and tax the cost OF that process to the buyer
What California needs is constant water to irrlgate
private lands that public domain like the
Spanish and Mexican grants or that have long since
been patented by the Federal Government to private
owners. This State also constant water to
operate her patented mines and to supply therefor
hydraulic power Therefore the purposes to be served
here not directly Federal purposes They are
private purposes entirely and more be served
by the OF any grant OF. power to Congress than
can any other private purpose for personal proht AS
well might we ask Congress to appropriate Federal
money to build for any citizen on his land pr-
vate fshpond.
1t clear, then from correct analysis OF the
Federal plan that it stops short where Federal pur
poses AS far Federal purposes go in Cali
forna everybody is willing that they shall have Fed
eral service and instead of opposing all Calfornlans
will work for it Our situation requires that for Our
ger interests WHICH lie OUTSIDE any pOSSlDS
eral purpose the State shall supplement Federal &C
ton.
There are great many things involved in this Fed
eral policy. The public domain in Western Kansas
sold to settlers as agricultural lands. Year after
year armies OF farmers have moved up to those lands
to face starvation, and retreat defeated in the at
tempt to make them yield The Government received
about thirty millions of dollars for those lands The
who bought them have been making for years
an organized effort to get their money back from the
Government AS as Federal irrigation begins
fit other arid lands for fruitfulness the public
domain the case of the Western Kansans has high
color OF equity, and the question of rounding their
money has standing which it never had before. To
them will be joined every buyer of the public do
main who has shared their fate, and issue is
presented to the Federal Government
The local question is, Can California wait outside,
on the desert in company with the horned toads and
tarantulas which now occupy lands formerly part OF
the Mexican and Spanish grants which may be made
fruitful by effort at self-help?

! owed his country Germany military SER
| vice. and the fact that he deserted is
proof that he did not complete that ser
vice; consequently there was unfulflled
an obligation at the time he left The
German Government has the right upon
his return to demand the fulfillment Of
that obligation and would have the right
in addition to infiict a punishment for the
desertion. This of course applies to one

THE OFF YEAR ELECTIONS.

THERE are certain admonitory features in the
/ off year elections which may be studied by poll
ticians with benefit to their parties AS far as
Mr.. Bryan is concerned the result is a hardly polite
invitation to him the leadership OF his party,
to come down and get out of the way. He may mis-
interpret the message that is plain everybody else
and continue to divert himself with dreams, but a
leader who has lost every battle in which he com
handed gets stale. Already the term poor Bryan
is current and that prefix ends in public life.
1t drove Franklin Pierce into dense obscurty,
from the high seat OF the Presidency.
The center OF interest to Republicans in the result
is the failure OF Nash to get a majority in Ohio. 1t
surprise that industrial conditions there, supposed
to be in fourishing state should permit such
immense margin of discomfort as is shown in the
Jones vote. Future peril lies in the possible combi-
nation in that State OF the supporters OF Jones and
Mclean, which would far outnumber the Republican
strength Another matter for Republican reflection
is the fact that the Jones-McLean fight in Ohio was
made mainly and pontedy against Imperialism and
the foreign policy OF the administration. While the
result presents gratifying personal victory for Judge
Nash it leaves the administration in heavy minority
in the Presidents own State of popular opinion
upon the leading feature of his policy.
The Republicans have lost Maryland for the same
reason, and the warning that Senator Wellington
While there is ustihable exutation that the party
has Jared so we'll there is in the result admonon
that the future will be if the party hasten
to become Republican again. Then its portentous
p1uralities will be turned into wholesome majortes,
and it will not need to trembe in fear that common
ground may be found upon which its opponents can
combine to defeat it
To return to poor Bryan. His misfortunes are in
creased by the situation in Kentucky. His course in
that contest has raised up enemies for him throughout
the South People down there waspish about out
siders interfering in family quarrel, and when the
family gets together again the outsider makes the
pleasant discovery that he has friends in the
bnation. SO his appearance in Kentucky is likely to
increase the Southern tendency to buck and fling
him. H has Nebraska to fall on and no doubt there
is some local office there which he take for its
profit and not its honor, and in which he can
grow old and amuse himself by shoulderng the parts
of speech and showing how fields are lost
