convention bottled up for Omaha. This "a

get the convention for next year, but rather
than precipitate a fight and be in danger
OF losing out altogether, he formed a

Michigan metropolis for the convention for
1863 and then Detroit voted with him for
the convention for Omaha for the follow.
ing year,
Mr.. Michaelsen, who was chairman OF ths
executive committee and member of the
committee on outside wiring. was complt.
mented on a paper he read before the con.
vention by the passage OF a resolution en-
Gorsing his idea and recommending all cleo
tricians to endeavor to get it adopted in
their home cities. This is the compelling Of
all electric light, electric power, telegraph
and telephone companies TO string their
wires on one set OF poles. or in the event
there are too many wires to use cables or
place them under ground. BY this method
there would not be such a net work OF
wires in streets and in front OF ottiee
windows.
Tit electrician says he will draw up an
ordinance along this line and present it to
the city council for its consideration.

who're they arc. The democrats talk about

not. But So YOU have no deposits what
do YOU care about guaranteeing what YOU

shadows home to a crust Of bread, what
IL there to enjoin about?
Look at Mir. Bryan's democratic plat
form. u says: We, the democrats, favor
p liberal pension policy Why, bless your
heart. there is now "a liberal pension policy,
~lnaugurated and enforced by a republican
administration. 1t says: we. the demo-

When the question vas up for consider.
alton but three democratic senator's voted
in favor Of II. 1t says: We, the demo-
Gratis, favor the guaranteeing Of bank

value of Republican Congressman.
MIR. Jefferis has told you something of
the, advantages OF having a republican in
congress in this district. Let me give you
an Instance. Last spring l received a tele-
gram saying that the roof had been blown
off Fort Crook. In ten hours | had passeo
a bill in the senate appropriating 100000
for repairs. / sent it over to your disting-
uished congressman. but evidently he was
not. on good terms over there and he could
not even get his committee to agree on it.
In an hour he came back and told me he
could do nothing. l then took a now tack
placed It as a rider on another bill, and
fixed it so that he could not stop its
passage through the house. Had Mr.. JEFF"
ferris been in congress there would have
been no delay and, also. there would have
been no failure in other legislation, as
there has been.
LAS a last word let me ask you to SO to
the polls election day and vote for the
welfare of the American people and the
progress and prosperity OF the American
public"
Mr.. Jefferis spoke but a few minutes,
but IN that time he convinced his hearers
OF the eXpediency of having a republican
member of congress from this district in
thai a republican, being of the majority,
could accomplish much more, for the ma
iority rules. He rave several instances,
ore o. them being that of an old soldier
who applied through the democratic con-
gresham for an increase in his pension.
After a couple of months the papers were
returned to him with the trite Information
that nothing could be done. On the advice
of a friend, the old soldier sent the papers
to one of the republican senators and in
two weeks he had the pension increase.
The Seymour quartet sang four cam
paign songs. the Benson fife and drum
corps played. and on the whole the polit-
ical meeting was a rousing affair.

NORTON, Kan, Oct. 26.-To the Editor
OF The Bee: Dear Sir-In the present
campaign, it appears TO me that one plank
of the democratic platform has been over
looked by republican journals and speakers,
and that is the first plank after the pre-
amble. This plank condemns the republi-
can party for creating 90, Sle new offices in
the last six years, ard makes an unfavor-
able comparison with the Cleveland and
Mckinley administrations 1t goes on to
"denounce this great and growing increase
in the number OF office holders as not
only unnecessary and wasteful, but also as

TORRFNS LAW IS UPHELD
IN STATE OF CALIFORNIA

sidering the fact that our present sys-
TEN has been in use for over a thou
sand years, advocates of the Torrens
system have no cause for complaint
over the seeming unwillingness of real
estate owners to take advantage of it.
The signing of this decree is there
fore an epoch making event in the his
tory of land titles in California Own
ers of real property, and particularly in
San Francisco, should be urged to reg
lister their titles. 1t is necessary for
every owner of real estate to obtain a
decree under the McEnerney Act es-
tablishing his title. Having done so,
it is very simple matter to apply for
the registration of that title. The
time is particularly suspicious now, as
there is no long chain of "record ii
tle'' to consult and confuse.
The Real Estate Board should take
the matter up in earnest and endeavor
to have every piece of property pass
ing through their hands registered
They can do more than anyone to make
the Torrens system effective and should
not miss an opportunity to use their
influence in it's favor.

LEFT THE CROOK To
SEE HIS LADY LOVE

The case of Lieut.. Morgan was not
the only one of a romantic nature on
the Crook, for another, of humber
aspect, came to light Saturday in the
person of private of the 23rd Infan-
try. who desired that his name be
withheld for obvious reasons.
This was the regiment that came
here on the Buford recently en- route
to the Philippines However, a few
minutes after the transport had cast
loose from the San Francisco dock a
certain company sergeant discovered
that one "Brown for he might as
well be called that here-was missing.
A search of the quarters of the COM
pany, together with few hurried
questions asked, developed the fact
that Grown had been seen on the
ship within a few moments prior to
her departure, and as he was not to be
found, the conclusion was reached that
he had at the last minute taken French
leave.
I And this surmise was correct, except
that the leave was only of a tempo
rary nature, and was taken deliberate
ly with definite purpose, and not
while under the influence of anything
more potent than Loves spell.
Brown" had learned just before
his arrival in the City of the Golden
Gate that his girl, "the" one, had ar
rived there a few days ahead of him,
and as soon as his regiment pulled in
from New York he fastened to his
captain with request for at least a
few hours shore leave before sailing,
giving the reason therefor. The Off
Ger, however, did not see matters in
that light, and denied the request
pointblank.
Grown said nothing at the time,
but having made up his mind that he
was not going to do three years in
Manila without a final visit, made his
way to the rear of the ship about half
an hour before she was ready to cast
off, and at time when all hands were
forward in the vicinity of the gang
plank, and adjuring a friendly-looking
dock hand to shove a plank aboard the
ship, which the latter consented to do
on being shown couple of pieces of
silver, the young Lothario was away
and off that dock before anyone had
noticed his absence.
He reported himself to the military
authorities at the Preside half hour
after the transport had departed, in
order, as he expressed it, to "save his
face" and CHANGING to encounter
good-natured lieutenant, he was prae-
tically given his own time until the
Crook sailed to be with his girl.
81 don't know exactly what they II
do to me when / get to the islands"
said he referring to the matter yester-
day, Fbut as l have been in the ser
vice for ten years and have pretty
good record, 1 think the punishment
will not be very heavy Anyway" and
his face lighted up, lit was worth it.
