Is mr only authorized ujjeiit in San Francisco, and any contracts mnclc bv him will Uv recognized. Tin: Daily nml Wbkki.y Astokiax are kept on fll at his alette v Can ShkIi Things He. The Cincinnati Commercial tells how the good iople of that city are bamboozled by the politi cal dealers -who run the political game. According to that journal the first tiling needed is a gang composed of members of both par ties. The gang constitute a ring. The ringsters are especially zeal ous. They are furious partisans, foremost and loudest in party work. The time comes for hold ing the primaries. The ring has possession of some of the offices and wants some more. Actually it makes no difference to the ring trom which political side of the or ganization the officers arc chosen. In any event the spoils are equita bly divided. "We will say U. is a strong Democrat and wants tlie great office of the occasion that is, the office where there is the greatest opportunity for converting the earnings of the many to tlie profit of the few. C, being a vociferous Democrat, wants the proper Re publican nominated to run against him. Now. j. is a Republican ringster, and Ic and C. maintain relations of the closest confidence. They are, indeed, as thick as two thieves. "We will say the Repub lican primaries and convention come on first. C, having things fixed in his own party, so far as possible, is deeply concerned as to B. Now 13. is not actually a candidate for the office, but, under a ring understanding, he ruus to help C, and is to be paid for his expenses in currying the Republican convention. Natu rally, on the d&y before and the da of the Republican primaries. C, though a good Democrat, noted for being red hot on the smallest provocation, is one of the most attractive of our citizens. If B. is nominated by the Re publicans through the servants of the organizations in the several wards, C. is subject to congratu lation. He will proceed to use the same crowd to obtain the Democratic nomination. With such an arrangement, whichever way the election goes llto ringsters win. They have a hen o two eggs. One is sure to hatch. Per haps after the nominations an made, with the adjustment that C, the Democrat, is to be elected and B., the Republican, compen sated for his trouble, the people will rise in their might and smash the slate. In that case B. is the office-holder and C. is paid for his trouble; and the office used for the base purpoFes of the same persons; and this sort of thing is usually styled a reformation. Ax invention for walking the water was recently tried on the Delaware river. The invention consists of two miniature scows, made of cedar, square at the end, and slightly bevelled on the under side for a short distance from each end. The were fitted with sup ports for each arm, which also answered the purpose of assisting in preserving an equilibrium. The were also fitted with brass rods, which were used as propel lers, and to one was attached a short rudder, with a cord reachinrr to the hand of the pedestrian, by which the course could be in a measure regulated. These shoes or floats were each seven feet in length and fourteen inches wide and one was attached to each foot. When the adjustments were made the man stepped into the water, and started on his journey. On account of the strong tide running at the time, very slow progress was made by him, but finally he succeeded in accomplishing the feat. The apparatus used by him is the invention of Professor Row land, of San Francisco, who claims that he succeeded in walking across the bay at that place, a disiance of three miles. The Minneapolis Tribune con trasts the financial result of dif ferent kinds of "strikes," in the following remark : "John L. Sulli van made more money in fifteen minutes'Monday night by striking than the Brotherhood of Telegrap ers made in three weeks by the same operation." IsEW TO-DAY Administrator's Notice.
