The Republicans of this city have

now!
THE LAW, AND THE MAN. .
The thinking American, with the
good of his country aLbeart, will not
waste time in weighing the man
against the law, in his analysis of the
Heney-Haas affair at San Francisco.
Neither the federal prosecutor nor
his murderous assailant are of any
moment, whatever, in comparison
with the safety and sanctity of the
code and court, except in so far as
F. J. Heney stood as the representa
tive of both. "
Divested of all prejudice, with all
side issues eliminated and human in
terest elements held in reserve, the
prime fact remains that the law of
the land has been grossly violated
within its own sanctuary, its high
servant laid low by the hand of law
lessness, and its sovereignty defied
and denied. This is enough for us,
at this time; when the dignity and
power of the law shall have been
restored in this premise, it will be in
order to inquire into the prejudice,
or passion, or both, that wrought
the outrage.
We hope the people of San Fran
cisco will merge and stand, an im
pregnable phalanx, for the redemp
tion of their State from the blasting
tourge that has been put upon it by
the act of Haas. He has put a cli
max of foul transgression and dan
gerous turpitude upon the warrant I the people are demanding for the
and weight of the law that even his rights denied them.: and the imposi-
Itions thrust upon them, lhey are

Otto Peterson, candidate for tb
water commission for the four-year
term in the Fourth ward, yesterda
formally withdrew from the nomin
tion accorded him by the Citizens'
convention, and also announces that
he will not accept the Republican
and Democrat nominations for the
same position given in the primary
After consulting with an atorncy Mr.
Peerson -deemed it best not to per
mit his name to stand for the com
misibn, inasmuch as the charter de
dares a member of that body must
be a "taxpayer. It happens that Mr.
Peterson's holdings are either not in
his name or, quite largely, ore in the
form of stock in one or more corpo
ratins, and according to the Oregon
laws, it is the corporation as a whole
which pays taxes and not the indi
vidual stockholder. Thus by reason
of these technicalities Mr. Peterson
seemed to be precluded from holding
the office.
At - the city hall yesterday Mr.
Peterson expressed regret that he
had unwittingly gotten into the mat
ter as far as he did. He had pre
sonted the question, he says, to one
member of the city administration
for advice and had been told that he
was eligible, the advice evidently
having been given without due con
sideration. !
Robert Carruthers, candidate for
police commissioner yesterday filed
his acceptance.' '
with Mr. Carruther s acceptance
in, and Mr. Peterson having with
drawn, there is only one nominee
who has not accepted, namely Mr.
Smith, who received the Democrat
nomination for the mayoralty.' Mr.
Smith has accepted " the ' Citizens'
nomination given., him in convention,
but his failure to acept .the Demo
crat 'nomination accorded him at the
primary either may mean that he
is satisfied there is na seed to file
acceptance within a stipulated time;
or else that he does not intend to
accept the Democrat nomination at
all. This latter suggestion was made
by several yesterday. Mr. Smith is
out of the city. '

What was perhaps the dramatic
event of the season at the Astoria
theatre this year was the production
of the " geat religious drama ' the
"Holy City" last night. The pres
entation as given by managers La
Compte and Fletcher is certainly
worthy of all the .praise that can
possibly be bestowed upon it. The
members of the cast are all artists
in their particular line, not a weak
member being among the 16 or more
in the company. The piece at this
instance will not be reviewed in de
tail, besides, the play is a famous
one and is thoroughly understood by
any one who has made a study of
the Bible. The piece is as claimed,
highly instructive as well as enter
taining. Miss Luella Morey in -the
leading roll of "Salome," daugh
