Editorial Note and Comment A prominent Republican from Villa Park was in town a day or two ago, and expressed himself in strenuous terms regarding Mr. Crawford, who lately came to town from Kansas. This gentleman was in the last Republican convention, and supported Schoolmaster Davis, who made it interesting for County School Superintendent Greeley in the fight for nomination to that office. Davis had only announced his candidacy four days before the election, yet so favorably was it received by the delegates, who felt Greeley had held the office long enough, that whole precinct delegations in the convention voted for him, whom they had never seen. Davis came within a few votes of beating Greeley, and has all along been supposed to be available material for the nomination this year. "But this courthouse push has put up the cards for another man, and Davis is out of it. This Crawford system was promulgated by the present crowd of office-holders, so that they might have a cinch on nominating themselves. I was in the last convention, but I'm blessed if I know when this Crawford plan was adopted. I have been a Republican all my life, yet I see men who were not so long ago Democrats planning the ruination of our party in order to get into office themselves. It is outrageous! "There is not a man at Villa Park who favors the Crawford system of articles I do not propose to take my readers over the travelled paths of Europe, paths worn smooth by the feet of an ever increasing multitude of tourists, but to find for them, if I may, some unbeaten tracks in the lands across the seas. This may be thought a difficult task in these days of Cook's tours and personally conducted parties. But the task which calls me to Europe will make it easier than it otherwise could be to get into "fresh fields and pastures new." While there are many out-of-the-way places in Europe, one does not have to wait till he reaches the Old World before finding unexplored regions, for the great steamer which carries him across the big and briny pond, a veritable floating island as it is, contains many an out-of-the-way hook, of which the tourist, wrapped in his rugs and stretched out on his easy chair like an Egyptian mummy, knows very little. The tourist is acquainted with the promenade-deck and the dining-saloon. He speedily learns his way to his own state-room, and in smooth weather occasionally wanders to the hurricane-deck, and has a far-off glimpse of the man at the wheel, the captain on the bridge or the lookout in the crow's nest. He becomes well acquainted with the deck steward, the bustling stewardess and the obsequious waiters, whose anxiety to please increases with every day of the voyage, and who reach an almost painful state of expectancy on the last day before the tips are distributed. But he has very little idea of the hundreds of men that are working for him out of sight, but who are no less essential to his comfort and safety than the gold-laced captain himself. OUT-OF-THE-WAY PLACES In an Ocean Steamer* BY REV. FRANCIS E. CLARK, D. D. In this series of articles I do not propose to take my readers over the travelled paths of Europe, paths worn smooth by the feet of an ever increasing multitude of tourists, but to find for them, if I may, some unbeaten tracks in the lands across the seas. This may be thought a difficult task in these days of Cook's tours and personally conducted parties. But the task which calls me to Europe will make it easier than it otherwise could be to get into "fresh fields and pastures new." While there are many out-of-the-way places in Europe, one does not have to wait till he reaches the Old World before finding unexplored regions, for the great steamer which carries him across the big and briny pond, a veritable floating island as it is, contains many an out-of-the-way hook, of which the tourist, wrapped in his rugs and stretched out on his easy chair like an Egyptian mummy, knows very little. The tourist is acquainted with the promenade-deck and the dining-saloon. He speedily learns his way to his own state-room, and in smooth weather occasionally wanders to the hurricane-deck, and has a far-off glimpse of the man at the wheel, the captain on the bridge or the lookout in the crow's nest. He becomes well acquainted with the deck steward, the bustling stewardess and the obsequious waiters, whose anxiety to please increases with every day of the voyage, and who reach an almost painful state of expectancy on the last day before the tips are distributed. But he has very little idea of the hundreds of men that are working for him out of sight, but who are no less essential to his comfort and safety than the gold-laced captain himself. Since the ship sailed from Bakersfield not wonder that she carried sand pounds of white beans; she the Canadians patronize her to extent, no less than three t pounds of oatmeal must be p The passengers and crew will more than half a ton of tea; eight hundred pounds of coal all were Americans; these would be reversed; I suppose than two tons and a half of but half a ton of cheese are amonger stores; while all these provide taken with as many grains as are found in twelve hundred pounds that necessary article.

A Republican from Buena Park, who was one of the most prominent delegates at the last county convention, and is one of the shrewdest observers of political affairs in the county, spoke unreservedly in opposition to the new system. He declared he did not know when the Crawford system was adopted in the last convention, and said the next convention would most surely set aside the will of the petty Santa Ana clique which has fastened it upon the party. "I believe in calling together members of the party from the different precincts—Buena Park, Fullerton, Placentia, West Anaheim, Anaheim, Orange, Tustin, and all other sections outside of Santa Ana, and talk this matter over before we meet in the county convention next fall. It will be too late then to do any good. The evil will have been done. I believe we outsiders ought to get together and beat this Santa Ana gang at their own game. We can do it if we try. We have the votes, and all we have got to do is to agree upon a ticket and we can nominate it as sure as shooting." "I'm a little bit afraid those fellows over there are a bit heavy for us," said a bystander, who was also in the 1898 convention. "No they are not," said the Park man, with emphasis, "we can beat them if we get together, and after crops are in I intend feeling around a bit to see what the boys say." "There is not a man at Villa Park who favors the Crawford system, and it will be the duty of the next Republican convention to knock the system out higher than a kite. I don't know when it was adopted, but I presume we shall have to grin and bear it. "Every office-holder at Santa Ana is out for renomination—every last one of them. A number of them would stand no show in a delegate convention. They would meet a worse fate than Greeley met, and they know it. They have fastened the new system upon the party for the sole reason of giving themselves another chance at the public crib; but they will never do it again." And this man is just about right.

"No they are not," said the Park man, with emphasis, "we can beat them if we get together, and after crops are in I intend feeling around a bit to see what the boys say." "The Great Eastern was but a pioneer in advance of her time. Like many a great man and reformer in the world's history who lived a century too soon to be appreciated or fully successful, so the Great Eastern was launched fifty years too early to achieve success. Engineering skill could not then furnish engines powerful enough and with a sufficient economy of coal to drive her mighty hulk through the water rapidly enough to rival from a commercial point of view her smaller and less ambitious sisters of the sea. She was a financial failure, and was long ago, if I am not mistaken, broken up for old iron. But now ships almost rivalling the Great Eastern in size, of even larger carrying capacity, and vastly swiftier, are launched nearly every month by the great ship-building companies both Europe and America, and doubtless it will not be many years before the actual tonnage of the Great Eastern is surpassed by many an ocean greyhound. One of these big modern ships is the Commonwealth. To go from her hurricane-deck to her furnace-room you have to descend, if I counted rightly, no less than seven flights of stairs. So it is really a seven-story building of iron and steel that is launched when a big ship leaves the ways. Set the Commonwealth upon end and she would overtop the highest building in the world. Cologne cathedral would lack nearly a hundred feet of reaching her bowsprit. St. Paul's cathedral would be only two-thirds as high, while the Capitol at Washington would lack more than two hundred feet of reaching as far into the air. It would take two of the great trees of the Yosemite, placed on top of the other, to rival her height, while the greatest pyramid in Egypt, which has ever been considered the world's masterpiece of massive grandeur, would lack a hundred and fifty feet of being as tall as the Commonwealth. Many of my readers, perhaps, have climbed to the top of Arthur's Seat near Edinburgh, and remember that it was a very considerable hill, and that they were well winded when they reached the top. But Arthur's Seat is only about two hundred feet higher Neptune used to be represe nt harnessing his water horses to leys of the gods when they t journeys.

"I'm a little bit afraid those fellows over there are a bit heavy for us," said a bystander, who was also in the 1898 convention. "No they are not," said the Park man, with emphasis, "we can beat them if we get together, and after crops are in I intend feeling around a bit to see what the boys say. I believe we fellows ought to come together and have a little talk—a sort of a smoker, you know." "You can count me in," replied the other man. "I'm with you. I don't believe in scratching up my ticket, but I believe the party has a kick acoming, and we ought to do all in our power to make it right before it is too late." From Westminster and Orange come expressions of a similar sentiment. Crawford has got to go, if not for this campaign then most assuredly for the next. And we shall have a whole lot of fun out of the Crawford fellows before snowballing. A Horrible Outbreak "Of large sores on my little daughter's head developed into a case of scald head," writes C. D. Isbill of Morgantown, Tenn., but Bucklen's Arnica Salve completely cured her. It's a guaranteed cure for eczema, tetter, salt rheum, pimples, sores, ulcers and piles. Only 25c at all druggists. Drying preparations simply develop dry catarrh; they dry up the secretions, which adhere to the membrane and decompose, causing a far more serious trouble than the ordinary form of catarrh. Avoid all drying inhalants, fumes, smokes and sniffs and use that which cleanses, soothes and heals. Ely's Cream Balm is such a remedy and will cause catarrh or cold in the head easily and pleasantly. A trial size will be mailed for 10 cents. All druggists sell the 50c size. Ely Brothers, 56 Warren St., N.Y. The Balm cures without pain, does not irritate or cause sneezing. It spreads itself over an irritated and angry surface, relieving immediately the painful inflammation. With Ely's Cream Balm you are armed against Nasal Catarrh and Hay Fever. Many of my readers, perhaps, have climbed to the top of Arthur's Seat near Edinburgh, and remember that it was a very considerable hill, and that they were well winded when they reached the top. But Arthur's Seat is only about two hundred feet higher than the Commonwealth would be if standing on end. But fortunately for the passengers the Commonwealth does not stand up on her head or upon her screw, for she is a very steady-going, comfortable boat, and keeps on an even keel from port to port, scarcely requiring the racks on the tables from one year's end to the other. If we should go down into her depths, we should find a crew of two hundred and thirty men laboring in one way and another to bring her safe to port, some shovelling coal into the insatiable furnaces whose open doors seem to reveal the fires of the bottomless pit itself; others are oiling the machinery; others in the galleys are cooking the food or preparing it for the cook. The carpenter is busy with repairs, and almost every profession is represented on board. From the barber to the doctor. The chief steward's department at least three times a day will be of interest to every passenger, and perhaps those who are not passengers would like to know what the storehouses and refrigerators contain. On this particular voyage from Boston to Alexandria and back to Boston, when a hundred and thirty first-saloon, twenty second-saloon, ninety-two steerage passengers, and a crew of two hundred and thirty men must be provided for on the outward journey, with a large additional number of steerage passengers on the return, the chief steward tells me that he provided twenty-five thousand pounds of fresh beef, ten thousand pounds of fresh mutton, thirty-six thousand *Copyrighted by Francis E. Clark.* March 13, 1902. Gazette. Since the ship sailed from Boston we do not wonder that she carried a thousand pounds of white beans, and since the Canadians patronize her to a large extent, no less than three thousand pounds of oatmeal must be provided. The passengers and crew will drink more than half a ton of tea, but only eight hundred pounds of coffee. If all were Americans, these figures should be reversed. I suppose. More than two tons and a half of butter and half a ton of cheese are among the other stores, while all these provisions are taken with as many grains of salt as are found in twelve hundred pounds of meat necessary article. These figures may seem trivial, but they show more forcibly than almost anything else can do the size of the colony that must be provided for on a single ocean voyage. It is indeed a very considerable township of people which one of these great ocean liners curries across the sea, and the enormous amount of her human freight can be appreciated in no other way so well. But, when we come to think of the propelling power which drives her through the waves, our wonder at the audacity of man reaches its highest point. Here is machinery within this iron hull, this island of iron, capable of generating ten thousand horse-power. Neptune used to be represented as harnessing his water horses to the galley of the gods when they took their journeys. Mythology has been outdone by modern science and invention, and even thousand horses of steel are hitched to every great ocean greyhound. Hardened tandem they would reach ahead of the ship for nearly twenty miles. Were they actually horses of flesh and blood, and driven four abreast, Nepune would require a whip more than five miles in length to tickle the ears of his farthest steed. A hundred and fifty-tons of coal a day are required to feed these iron horses, even when they pounds of flour, five tons of sugar and ten tons of potatoes. "No One But Must Feel His Devotion To His Country Renewed And Kindled When He Remembers How McKinley Loved, Revered And Served It." The address delivered by the Hon. John Hay, Secretary of State, on the life of William McKinley, at the joint memorial session of Congress, was most eloquent and forceful. In part it was as follows: "For the third time the Congress of the United States are assembled to commorate the life and the death of a President slain by the hand of an assassin. The attention of the future historian will be attracted to the features which reappear with startling sameness in all three of these awful crimes; the uselessness, the utter lack of consequence of the act; she obscurity, the insignificance of the criminal; the blasphement—so far as in our sphere of existence the best of men may be held blameless—of the victim. Not one of our murdered Presidents had an enemy in the world; they were all of such preeminent purity of life that no pretext could be given for the attack of passional crime; they were all men of democratic instincts, who could never have offended the most jealous advocates of equality; they were of kindly and generous nature, to whom wrong or injustice was impossible; of moderate fortune, whose slender means nobody could envy. They were men of sustene virtue, of tender heart, of eminent abilities, which they had devoted with single minds to the good of the Republic. If ever men walked before God and man without blame it was these three rulers of our people. The only temptation to attack their lives offered was their gentle radiance—to eyes hatting the light that was offense enough. "The stupid uselessness of such an infamy affronts the common sense of the world. One can conceive how the death of a dictator may change the po" There were many liars in Anaheim. How Mr. Voight Once Ran for Marshal, Had Everybody Promise to Support Him, and Then Got Laft. Mr. Voight once ran for marshal in Anaheim. He got left. He was a man of classical education, of refined manners, but that wasn't the reason why he got it in the neck. He didn't know how to campaign, and this is how it came about. Some weeks before the election he announced his intention to trotting himself out for the office. He had tried to get to be principal of the school, but even the fact that he could talk Latin and Greek was not considered sufficient by the haughty school board to land him the job. So he told his friends he would run for marshal. He blossomed out as a candidate, gay with affability, extending the glad hand to all and sundry. He kissed babies, patted fond papas on the back, and said their youngsters were the finest ever. The town had about 150 voters in it, and Voight had no difficulty in getting half of them, and a few over, to pledge him their support. "The rest may go to blazes!" he confided to some of his friends. "My haughty spirit revolts at this idea of going campaigning for votes. I cannot do it. It revolts me. I've got enough any way, and the rest may be blowed to them." "But this will never do," they said. "If these other fellows know what you have said of them they will turn out and organize a campaign against you, and work against you at the polls." So Voight, early the next morning, started out after those other votes. He rounded up half of them, securing absolute promises of support from all of them, and returned and said he certainly had enough votes to elect. "The others I may be able to see, but if not, what odds is it? I'll be handed a winner." Neptune used to be represented as harnessing his water horses to the galley of the gods when they took their journeys. Mythology has been outdone by modern science and invention, and ten thousand horses of steel are hitched to every great ocean greyhound. Harried tandem they would reach ahead of the ship for nearly twenty miles. Were they actually horses of flesh and blood, and driven four abreast, Neptune would require a whip more than five miles in length to tickle the ears of his farthest steed. A hundred and fifty-tons of coal a day are required to feed these iron horses, even when they are driven at a very moderate rate of speed, enough in a day, my reader, to keep your family or mine warm for many a long year. But I will not go into further details which one may pick up in the unexplored recesses of a passenger-ship, curious and interesting as they may be; for these are sufficient to show how in this age of steam and iron man has triumphed over nature, and has brought the ends of the earth together by the might of his iron steeds. My next letter will tell something of out-of-the-way places in Italy. Looking and Seeing. There is much in knowing how to see sights. The discreet and skillful person, when confronted with a variety of attractions, will carefully select those that are for him the best and then will devise means to see them with the least wear and tear. But there are excitable people who set out to see everything, tire themselves out, see only half of anything and are dissatisfied in the end. Easily a Good Thing. "Did you say that hair restorer is a good thing?" asked the patron. "Yes," answered the barber, with some slight hesitation; "it's a good thing. We sell several bottles a week at a dollar a bottle." "But how do you know it's a good thing?" "Because the profit on every bottle is 75 cents."—Washington Star. His Fortune. "Who is that handsome young man standing over there?" inquired an old gentleman of a rich old lady at a party. "That's my son-in-law. He's a very brilliant young man; made a large fortune by the law." "Indeed!" said the old gentleman. How's that? "The law made him my daughter's husband."—London Answers. Her Pet Pig. A young woman in London took a pig in infancy and brought it up, as she says, "like a Christian." Complaint was made to the authorities the other day, and the sanitary officers who went to investigate found the pig in bed between two white sheets, with its hend on a pillow and its body covered with a white lace counterpane. Should Keep Something. New Woman—Simply because a woman marries a man is no reason why she should take his name. Old Bachelor—Just so. The poor fellow ought to be allowed to keep something he can call his own—St. Louis The stupid uselessness of such an infamy affronts the common sense of the world. One can conceive how the death of a dictator may change the political conditions of an empire; how the extinction of a narrowing line of kings may bring in an alien dynasty. But in a well-ordered republic like ours, the ruler may fall, but the State feels no tremor. Our beloved and revered leader is gone—but the natural process of our laws provides us a successor, identical in purpose and ideals, nourished by the same teachings, inspired by the same principles, pledged by tender affection as well as by high loyalty to carry to completion the immense task committed to his hands, and to smite with iron severity every manifestation of that hideous crime which his mild predecessor, with his dying breath forgave. The sayings of celestial wisdom have no date; the words that reach us, over two thousand years, out of the darkest hour of gloom the world has ever known, are true to life to-day; They know not what they do. The blow struck at our dear friend and ruler was as deadly as blind hate could make it; but the blow struck at anarchy was deadlier still. THE PROBLEM OF ANARCHY. "What a world of insoluble problems such an event excites in the mind! Not merely in its personal, but in its public aspects, it presents a paradox not to be comprehended. Under a system of government so free and so impartial that we recognize its existence only by its benefactions; under a social order so purely democratic that classes cannot exist in it, affording opportunities so universal that even conditions are as changing as the winds, where the laborer of to-day is the capitalist of tomorrow; under laws which are the result of ages of evolution, so uniform and so beneficent that the President has just the same rights and privileges as the artisan; we see the same hellish growth of hatred and murder which dogs equally the footsteps of benevolent monarchs and blood-stained despots. How many countries can join with us in the community of a kindred sorrow! I will not speak of those distant regions where assassination enters into the daily life of government. But among the nations bound to us by the ties of familiar intercourse—who can forget that wise and mild Autocrat who had earned the proud title of the Liberator? That enlightened and magnanimous citizen whom France still mourns? that brave and chivalrous King of Italy who only lived for his people? and, saddest of all, that lovely and sorrowing Empress, whose harmless life could hardly have excited the animosity of a demon. Against that devilish spirit not do it. It revolts me. I've got enough any way, and the rest may be blowed to them." "But this will never do," they said. "If these other fellows know what you have said of them they will turn out and organize a campaign against you, and work against you at the polls." So Voight, early the next morning, started out after those other votes. He rounded up half of them, securing absolute promises of support from all of them, and returned and said he certainly had enough votes to elect. "The others I may be able to see, but if not, what odds is it? I'll be landed a winner. I'm as good as elected now." "But this will never do," they said. "If these fellows find out what you have said of them they will turn out and organize a campaign against you, and work against you at the polls." So he started out again. He saw every voter in town, except his opponent. He left him severely alone. "I have the pledge of every man in Anaheim to support me for the office. I don't see where the other fellow is going to get off. Really, I feel quite sorry for him." So spake Mr. Voight. Election day drew near. Mr. Voight retired to his humble abode and read Virgil and Theophrastus Such. The other fellow saw wood. When the votes were counted Mr. Voigt was found to have received seven votes (7). The other fellow had all the rest. "It is astonishing—positively astonishing!" said Mr. Voigt, the day after the conflict. "Such a small town; and so many big liars in it." P. S.-This lesson has no bearing upon the present contest for the same office. Besides, the liars are all dead or moved away. Coyote Scalps. The Farmers' Exchange bank of San Bernardino has commenced suit to collect from the State $2000 due for the killing of coyotes. On January 3, 1893, the Supervisors passed a resolution offering $5 for every coyote scalp. Coyotes were being cleaned out at a rapid rate, but available funds for paying the $5 reward were being exhausted. The result was the resolution was rescinded and the Supervisors refused to audit any more claims. The Farmers' Exchange bank holds 98 claims, some for $5 and others for more, and it now proposes to force the State to satisfy these claims.

Olmsted, Le Roy, New York. In the community of a kindred sorrow, I will not speak of those distant regions where assassination enters into the daily life of government. But among the nations bound to us by the ties of familiar intercourse—who can forget that wise and mild Autocrat who had earned the proud title of the Liberator? that enlightened and magnanimous citizen whom France still mourns? that brave and chivalrous King of Italy who only lived for his people? and, saddest of all, that lovely and sorrowing Empress, whose harmless life could hardly have excited the animosity of a demon. Against that devilish spirit nothing avails—neither virtue nor patriotism, nor age nor youth, nor conscience nor pity. We cannot even say that education is a sufficient safeguard against this baleful evil—for most of the wretches whose crimes have so shocked humanity in recent years were men not unlettered, who have gone from the common schools, through murder to the scaffold. M'KINLEY THE ECONOMIST. "But the achievements of the nation in war and diplomacy are thrown in the shade by the vast economical developments which took place during Mr. McKinley's Administration. Up to the time of his first election, the country was suffering from a long period of depression, the reasons of which I will not try to seek. But from the moment the ballots were counted that betokened his advent to power, a great and momentous movement in advance declared itself along all the lines of industry and commerce. In the very month of his inauguration steel ralls began to be sold at $18 a ton—one of the most significant facts of modern times. It meant that American industries had adjusted themselves to the long depression—that through the power of the race to organize and combine, stimulated by the conditions then prevailing, and perhaps by the prospect of legislation favorable to industry, America had begun to undersell the rest of the world. The movement went on without ceasing. The President and his party kept the pledges of their platform and their canvass. The Dingley bill was speedily framed and set in operation.
