Tin uvu'siion of a weekly half holiday during the summer months la one which la agitating the minds of the merchants and retail clerks of the city. The desirability of the weekly vacation Is coueeded alike by merchant and clerk, and the milliners, dressmakers and cashiers are already having of sweet hours spent in philandering in the cool atmosphere of the canyon resorts. Two years Ago the half holiday waa instituted, but through a lack of unanimity on the part of the merhants It was not the success that It ought to hnve been. The attainment of that unanimity Is the object most desired at present and tha object which must be accomplished before the movement Unwill be completely successful. less all the merchants come to a favorable decision on the question it can not be carried out successfully. The butcher and the baker, the dry goods, grocery and shoe merchant, the sporting goods firms, all must agree to close on a certain day at a certain hour (and Wednesday at 1 o"clock haa been suggested) before the half holiday will be an accomplished fact. The half holiday would work no hardship on the public, and the convenience of the buyer is the merchants first consideration. It would only mean the closing of the stores a few hours earlier and the public would easily accustom Itself to the change; but the few hours recreation would mean so much to the tired and jaded clerks. It would mean no loss to the merchant. The purchaser would transact his business the previous night or in the earlier part of the day. There would be no diminution In the volume of business. t So that the question can be maturely the considered and fully discussed Journal suggests that the Weber club take action In the. matter as it Is a subject fully within the range of that organisation. Harmony in CaliNothing But War in Illinois. Cul.. May 19. The first business at the morning session of the California stute convention was the adoption of the platform, which was read by Hon. John F. Ihivis of Amador. The platform Is very brief, leaving matters of national politics to the national convention and of state legislation to the August convention. The platform declares sllegince to the party's principles, favors protection, a sound system of finance, building of the merchant marine, ample navy, improvement of rivers, reservation of forests and the reclamation of arid lands, Indorses the conduct of state institutions, praises the administration of Governor Pardee and commends the senators and representaCalifornia tives. It pays a high tribute to President Roosevelt and instructs the delegation to national convention to vote and work for him. The following delegates at large were chosen: Governor Pardee, John D. Sprerkela, George A. Knight, Judge J. W. McKinley; alternates at large, Ferd Rule of Los Angeles, E. A. Forbes of Marysville, A. Reuf of San Francisco, Walter Ruter of Watson.
