WORKS TOGETHER FOR 0000
The attempted assassination of
Francis Henev at San Francisco is a
revelation of a condition of affairs in
that city for which not even th? un
link record of the past hail prepared
i Ik* outside ou looker. The dynamit
ing of witnesses lii the graft case*
waf indeed a leading indication of
tliis same condition but the country
was unable to associate these des
perate methods with the names of
Tirey Ford and other associates ?
some of which names have heretofore
stood so well. It is sincerely to be
hoped that Heney's wish that he
may recover and prosecute, if not
the would-be assassin who has taken
his case off his hands, then those
who are more responsible uo doubt
than he was.
The tragedy will have the effect ol
k? ying up th? people of San Francis
co to a condition nccessary for the
completion of their varork of ridding
their unhappy city of the pestilen
tial breed of grafters that has worked
it such unspeakable harm and this
appears to be the feature that re
deems the situation. The reports
from that distressed communltty of
late have indicated a growing weari
ness of the graft prosecution with
the work only partially done. The
cry of graft has been turned against
the prosecution itself and tended to
weaken its force. The Examiner,
which In the first place was one of
the principal agents in working up
the case against Schmidt and Ruef
has joined this cry which has grown
so loud that at last Mayor Taylor,
himself elected on the reform ticket,
has "been constrained to appoint a
? ouimittee to investigate the truth
of the stories" as the wire of a few
days ago stated.

This growing public sentiment ?
which to people at a distance hail
only the appearance of another phase
of the work of the grafters in their
attempt to escape? is no doubt the
thing that lent strength to the arm
of the assassin ? causing hlui to be
lieve he would have public sym
pathy.
And *o. the evil being done, the
Examiner, so blatant in its false lead
ership turns at once and with its
largest type. ?io doubt, deplores the
act and hopes that Mr. Heney will
recover to continue the work for
which only a few days ago that
journal was declaring him to be unfit
Haas has killed himself and thus
eliminated his personality ? whicl
acts in itself is good ? so that when
Heney does recover he can continue
to concentrate his force in the pur
suit of larger game.
And the part played by the Exam
1 ii. r in this matter recalls that other
and similar part played by all the
Hearst papers which led directly ? as
everybody believed at the time and
?nll believe ? to. the assassination of
President McKlnley. The bitter at
titude of those newspapers expressed
in ???jually extravagant and Irrespon
sible statement, argument and car
toon. gave impulse to the weak brain
of the foreign anarchist that fired
the shot, and no sooner was It done

THE OCEAN.
ROLL on, thou deep and dark blue I
ocean? roll !
Ten thousand fleet* sweep over |
thee In vain;
Man marks the earth with ruin; |
his control
?tops with the shore. Upon the watery
plain
The wrecks arc all thy deed, nor doth re
main
A shadow of man's ravage save his own
When for a moment, like a drop of rain.
He (Inks Into thy depths with bubbling
(roan.
Without a crave, unknelled. unoofflned
and unknown.
Thou glorious mirror, where the Al
mighty's form
Olasscs Itself In tempests. In all time
Calm or convulsed In breeze or gale or |
storm,
Icing the pole or In the torrid clime
Dark heaving? boundless, endless and sub
lime.
The Image of eternity, the throne
Of the Invisible, even from out thy slime |
The monsters of the deep are made; each
tone
Obeys thee. Thou goest forth, dread,
fathomless, alone.
And I have loved thee, ocean, and my Joy
Of youthful sports was on thy breast
to be
Borne, like thy bubbles, onward. From a
boy
I wantoned with thy breakers. They to
me
Were a delight, and If the freshening sea
Made them a terror 'twas a pleasing fear,
For I was, as it were, a child of thee
And trusted to the billows far and near
And laid my hand upon thy mane, as I
do here. ?Lord Byron.

where do you suppose she lives ? Five
hundred miles beyond the arctic

tell its reader* who Nellie Cashmai is,
for there are very few people who have
resided in Alaska any length of time
who do not know her. She c?me to
Alaska in 1874. She was with the first
oaes who went into the Cassiar country
an<< meny a miner will tell you that If
it had not been for Nellie Cashman
they would have died in that country
from scurvey and other sicknesses.
Nellie, on that expedition was the
nurse and scores of men who fell sick
with the scurvey received medicine
from her free of all cost if they were
broke.
She was through tbe Dawson country
in ''the days of '97" and has seen about
every camp in Alaska. Four /ears ago
