knows how it should be done. Mr.

TWO BRIBERY CASES.

The prosecution in the Glass brib-
cry case may be unable TO draw from
unwilling witnesses sufficient evidence
legally to convict the defendant, but
the unwillingness of these witnesses
goes far toward establishing the moral
conviction of Glass guilt.
There Is 4 wide moral difference be-
tween the case of Glass and that Of
Calhoun of the United Railroads. also
indicted for the bribery of the super
visors. though the latter strenuously
denies that there was any bribery and
he prefers the counter charge that he
is the victim of Spreckels, a rival or
would-be rival in the street car bust
ness.
In the case of Glass it Is charged.
and admitted by one Of the supervis-
or, that Glass bought his vote against
an ordinance granting a franchise TO
a rival company. There could be no
more despicable and more dangerous
motive for bribery.
In the case Of the United Railroads
il is charged that.after the fire and
earthquake Calhoun and his associates
bribed the supervisors TO grant them
permission to convert their lines into
trolley system. -
There can be no defense of bribery,
whatever maybe the motive, but waiv-
ing the denial of Calhoun and assum-
ing that bribery was committed, it was
done 10 the injury of no one but the
supervisors who received the brides
and to the financial and moral injury
of the men who had to pay the brides.
1t was done not to acquire any new
privilege or TO extend an old one, but
10 acquire something which the Unit
ed Railroads ought to have had
and what the citizens of San
Francisco wanted them to have.
me power to improve their trans
portation system and make 1t
more efficient, to make it conform
ID the popular idea OF the new and
Greater San Francisco. The with
holding of this power was the denial
81: a right of the railroad company and
the denial of a benefit to the people.
This must not be construed to be
defense of bribery in any circum-
stances. for the law, though it recog-
mixes motives and degrees in some
kinds of crimes, wisely does not rec
.gnize motives for the crime of brib-
cry The only law Of which the de-
PENDANT railroad men could AVIAN
themselves would be the unwrltten
law to (which we believe no appeal has
ever been made in a bribery case.
This is merely an Improbable COM
parison Of the moral Offense charged
against Glass and that charged against
the officials of the United Railroads.

NATIONAL HOME.
ILLUSTRATED LECTURE.
Charles Nathaniel Thomas Tells Story
OF the Civil War.

| The Opera house was well filled last
evening with large and interested
audience to listen to the lecture by
Charles Nathaniel Thomas Of Washing
ton. D. c., on the subject of Views
and Reviews of the Civil War;" which
proved to be one of the most entertain
ing AMI at the same time instructive
attractions which had been offered the
members of the Home during the fall
season. The subject was one which
could not fail to interest all. not only
those who had participated in the great
struggle, but those also who knew OF
the war as a matter of history, and
was handled in a manner which won
for the speaker the admiration of all
present.
The lecture was, as indicated by the
title, a review of the Civil War. In
his opering Mr.. Thomas gave an out
line of the causes of the war and the
principles for which it was fought.
and from there passed from one to
another of the leading events of the
conflict down to the close, each being
told in a manner so graphic that but a
slight stretch of imagination was need
ed on the part Of his hearers to bring
them within sound of the guns. The
lecture was illustrated by large num-
Der of excellent stereOpticon views
which contributed much to the enjoy
ment of the evening.
Mr. Thomas is an easy and pleasing,
speaker of excellent descriptive ability
and tells the story of the war in
way which holds the attention and
interest of his audience throughout
He will be remembered by many as
the deliEeator of the wonderful paint
,, ing of the Field and Battle of Gettys-
! burg at the Boston cyclOrama IN 1885,
81, where over 100000 people heard his
graphic description of that thrilling
drama At present he is resolution an,
