THE PITH OF POLITICS. (By Arthur J. Pillsbury) A certain country editor is in a prolicament and desires advice. Figuratively speaking he is astride of the top rail of a high fence with a wild bull raging on one side and an indignant mastiff standing on the other. While he is as safe as though he were in the bosom of Abraham the elevated station he occupies is not desirable as a permanent status and he feels that he must come down on one side or the other sooner or later, but whenever he manifests a disposition to descend his advance is met by a sullen indifference that betokens strained relations. It may be safe enough but it is not comfortable to be on the fence. Next to a good lover the world loves a good hater. People who pride themselves on their political independence generally have not much else to take pride in. The battle of life belongs to the man who has decisive convictions and the man who hasn't decisive convictions on such issues as gold standard vs. free silver, holding the Philippines until time shall tell what we ought to do with them vs. crawfishing out of them, the maintenance of an army sufficient for the growing requirements of a growing country vs. reducing that army to the dignity of a posse comitatus—the man who is so independent as not to know what he ought to do in this crisis is an unstable equilibrium, carries his brains parted, like his hair, in the middle and will probably vote as directed by the last man who has him in hand before he casts his ballot. Belong to something. Take hold somewhere. Don't be a political eunuch. Speaking literally this uncertain editor is in favor of an income tax, but does not think much of Bryan or his party. He is opposed to a very high protective tariff, but is delighted with the way that President McKinley avoided provoking a war with Great Britain over the difficulty in the Transvaal. He is opposed to trusts and the free coinage of silver and believes in expansion but does not want too much war. All this gentleman lacks of being a Republican is a backbone. All that the Republican party wants of a protective tariff is to have it high enough so that it will protect and a protective tariff that will not protect is not a protective tariff. Figures from the City Clerk's Annual Report. Continued from First Page. Hay averaged about $15 per ton. Barley averaged about $1.25 per cwt. PUBLIC STREETS.

He is opposed to a very high protective tariff, but is delighted with the way that President McKinley avoided provoking a war with Great Britain over the difficulty in the Transvaal. He is opposed to trusts and the free coinage of silver and believes in expansion but does not want too much war. All this gentleman lacks of being a Republican is a backbone. All that the Republican party wants of a protective tariff will have it high enough so that it will protect and a protective tariff that will not protect is not a protective tariff. The Republican party agrees with this gentleman perfectly in being opposed to trusts that strangle competition and limit production. And the Republican party not only does not want too much war but it does not want any war at all. The civil war was forced on it, so was the Spanish war and the war with the Filippinos. It never provoked a war and never will, but while the Republican party is in power no nation on the earth can walk with impudent impunity on the fluttering coat tails of our chin whiskered, star spangled gentleman who wears striped trousers with the straps. If in the interest of a manful rigidity our country editor will apply a plaster cast to his spinal column he will be eligible to wear a McKinley button, descend from his uncomfortable perch on the fence and take a place in the ranks of a party of progress and among men of action. If there are others like him let them do so also. By the way, Uncle Sam is the Republican party and the Republican party is Uncle Sam. The twain are one flesh. The Republican party is the party of achievement. It is made up of men of action rather than of speculation. It is made up of men who see things rather than of men who dream things. Because it is not emotional its opponents charge it with being materialistic, but it is not materialistic because it has faith in a national mission and a national destiny and leaves to God rather than to speculation the eventualities of the unforeseen. When cartoonists come to depict Uncle Sam sitting on a box whittling and whistling the reader may know that there is danger of his going Democratic. The Republican party cherishes lofty ideals without being sentimental. It has enthusiasm without going beside itself. It marches steadily forward, but does not go hunting for adventure. It crosses bridges when it comes to them, is wide in its sympathies without being lachrymose, looks upon the capitalist as a needful factor in production rather than as an enemy to society, and upon the laborer as a very real party in interest worthy of dignified consideration rather than of demagogic demonstrations of idolatrous affection. For more than a generation the history of the Republican party has been the history of the country and when the Republican party ceased to make history so did the country. It is a good party to belong to and particularly commends itself to those who live in this world to be doing rather than to be merely staying. The political role the Examiner is playing is offspring if not very instructive. It among reasonable men that scandals in the department of supply have been so few as they have and that the efficiency has been so great as it has, both ceasing altogether after the first weeks of preparation for the Spanish war. If the San Francisco Examiner can find no other ground for opposing the election of McKinley and Roosevelt than want of honesty on the part of the Republican administration it will do well to withdraw from the conflict, climit the fence and be a spectator. But it illly becomes the followers of Bryan to raise the question of extravagant cost in the hasty preparation for the war with Spain, for it is not contended that there has been extravagance since the military commissary got down to a working basis as it did after the immediate haste was over. Who are they who were responsible for the national unpreparedness for war that made the extravagance of haste inevitable? Why those who clamored without ceasing for the precipitation of a conflict for which the nation was totally unprepared, those who were so impatient of delay that they wanted Cuba invaded by an undisciplined mob of citizen soldiery, without clothes, or arms or commissary stores, those who regard to an American soldier as a minion of imperial despotism, who begrudge every dollar that goes to buy a gun or burn a bit of powder, and who would reduce the army of the republic to the level of a sheriff's posse. And the same men are still in the same business and if they can have their way the military arm of the United States will be just as impotent for the next national exigency as it was for the last.

THE GHOST OF IMPERIALISM. The Democratic party believes in ghosts. It knows there aren't any, and yet from the very birth of that party the disciples of Jefferson have been eroding with shrill voices: "The goblin will get ye if ye don't watch out! They have profited by the cry and hope again to profit by it in the forthcoming campaign. When Thomas Jefferson returned to his native land from having represented old confederacy at the court of Vescailles it was to bring home a head for academic disquisition in relation to theory of social contract with which, preparation for the French revolution France was then seething. He came take first place in Washington cabinet. In the northern colonies, where government was purely Democratic, these leaders of public sentiment were daunted by trustful of the ability of whole people to govern themselves wisely as well, but in the southern colonies, whose government was patrician in character (the real power being confined to a few families) the academic instruction of Rousseau and his school of French essayists had taken deep root, and Thomas Jefferson was its apostle. And so it came about that political parties began to form in our newly organized nation with Washington and Hamilton favoring a strongly centralized form of government, with suffer more or less restricted; and Jefferson standing (theoretically but never practically) for a weak central government. But Jefferson had no party back him while Washington and Hamilton had a large and powerful constituency and a party he must have or be razed so he straightway fell to organizing the Democratic party of America history. Before he could organize a party must excite the public mind, and best way to excite was to frighten him, best way to frighten was to ghost, for in those days people believed in ghosts and were afraid of them. Jefferson's ghost was the ghost monarchy; just as Bryan's ghost is ghost of imperialism. Jefferson knew that he could not frighten anyone simply declaring that Hamilton Washington favored a more highly trained form of government than regarded as wise, so he suffered his life to grow long, learned how to make and ink sketches of skulls and bones and began to declare that Winston Hamilton (but especially Hamilton) were planning to establish monarchy on the ruins of young public. He knew better but, conscientious politician that he was, he knew that he must keep that horrible shape before the eyes of the people if would possess that political power which he thirsted, and his political power was justified by the results. Democratic party was born of a archical nightmare, and in our daily political nightmare is striving to deliver The political role the Examiner is playing is edifying if not very instructive. It is making pretense of supporting the tripod ticket but finds itself unable to support Bryanism. It stands for expansion, for a vigorous foreign policy, for the rehabilitation of the American merchant marine, extension of commerce, for leaving the finances of the nation as they are and for nothing whatever that Bryanism stands for except Bryan, and it stands for Bryan because it pretends to think that the Republican administration is not honest. Honest? My lord! The fakish Examiner abhorrent of Dishonesty! Satan nauseated by the smell of brimstone! Horror depicted on the face of a hag because of an indelicate suggestion! The Examiner pays a higher tribute to the Republican party and its policy than it supposes when it confesses that the only vulnerable point in the armor of McKinley is that army contractors may, at the outset of the Spanish war have obtained the bargains with the government and that a trusted employe stole stamps from the Havana postoffice. The campaign of 1884 was made on the plea: "Turn the rascals out and let us look at the books," and when the books were exported they were found to be less than a dollar out of the way. It is too soon to attempt to work that racket again. The policy of the Examiner is not only suggestive of a faint heart, but of heart failure. Even the Examiner admits that President McKinley is honest, but then the San Francisco postoffice has been slow in building, and in the hurry of unpreparedness to go to war with Spain contractors received more than they ought for supplies and too high prices were paid for the use of vessels chartered. Sensible men knew that an effort to create an army in a day, to clothe, victual, arm and transport it under rush orders would place the government at the mercy of sharp nosed contractors, and great has been the satisfaction train will leave Orange at 7:52 p.m., arriving Riverside at 8:51 p.m., Highgrove at 8:57 p.m., San Bernardino at 9:10 p.m., Redlands at 9:33 p.m.; stopping at other stations mentioned above to let off passengers holding tickets from Coronado. These trains are in addition to the regular train service, and are only for the accommodation of persons going to and from Camp Coronado—only holders of Camp Coronado tickets being permitted to ride on them. Good for Sheppard. Contractor J. C. Sheppard on Thursday completed his job of cementing the Arroyo ditch and its laterals, the Sand Ridge and Taylor ditches. The work on the main ditch reaches the Southern Pacific track near the crossing of College avenue. From our personal inspection of the work and from the report of the officers of the company, we are pleased to say that Mr. Sheppard has fulfilled his contract with the ditch company in the most satisfactory manner, both as to speed of construction and character of the work. Mr. Sheppard came among us with the reputation of being a good workman and conscientious contractor. His reputation as such has been fully sustained by the contract he has just completed—Downey Champion. What a Tale it Tells.

"I had a severe attack of billows got a bottle of Chamberlain's Coke Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, two doses and was entirely cured." Rev. A. A. Power of Emporia, "My neighbor across the street sick for over a week, had two or three bottles of medicine from the doctor. I went over to see him morning. He said his bowels were terrible fix, that they had been ing off so long that it was a bloody flux. I asked him if he had Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and rhoea Remedy, and he said, 'N went home and brought him my hand and gave him one dose, told him take another dose in 15 or 20 min if he did not find relief, but he took more and was entirely cured.'

The expectation in which the American people, turning from the Democratic party, entrusted power four years ago to a Republican chief magistrate and a Republican congress, has been met and satisfied. When the people then assembled at the polls, after a term of Democratic legislation and administration, business was dead, industry paralyzed and the national credit disastrously impaired. The country's capital was hidden away and its labor distressed and unemployed. Extract from Republican National platform. Political parties are gigantic organizations of men formed for the purpose of administering the affairs of government on certain, definite lines which the effective majority of the people lay down as just and salutary. These parties are beholden to the people for their stewardship and deserve to be continued in power just in the proportion that their promises and policies have borne the test of time and trial. They deserve to be judged by what they have done, by the measure in which they have performed their promises and by the proved utility of their policies when applied. By these tests should the Republican party stand or fall in the coming election. It is in vain that attempts are made to explain away the bad times that attended the late Democratic administration, and that Bryanites would explain into nothingness the improved conditions which have followed the restoration of the Republican party and policies to power and action, for there is no fact in existence that can not be obscured by weaving in front of it intricate and subtle webs of sophistry. In the eyes of the incapable all the elements and all the gods contribute to their undoing, and all the elements and all the gods of human destiny conspire to make their opponents victorious and prosperous. But sensible people know better. They know that the tree must be judged by its fruits, the workman by his work, and the political party by the condition of the country under its administration.

After Scale. Horticultural Commissioner Huntington informs us he will have his fumigating tents, ten in number, ready for scale killing about the middle of the month. Last month (July) he served 57 notices upon orchard owners, notifying them to clean up their scale. He will, as soon as he gets the tents in order, be prepared to treat their trees, and is resolved to stamp out the pests. They Struck it Rich. It was a grand thing for this community that such an enterprising druggist as P. A. Derge secured the agency for Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, the wonderful remedy that has startled the world by its marvelous cures. The fear of enthusiasm over it has boomed his business, as the demand for it is immense. They give free trial bottles to sufferers, and positively guarantee it to cure coughs, colds, bronchitis, asthma, croup, and all throat and lung troubles. A trial proves its merit. Price 50c. and $1. It is not pretended by men of any candor in Mr. Bryan's party that there is any great risk of an imperial spirit growing up in our own country, but only that in the governing by the chief executive of far away dependencies an imperialism will be necessary and that in time this may react upon American institutions at home as well as abroad. The argument is punctured by the suggestion that the governing of our insular possessions by commissioners appointed by the president is only temporary, that the power rests in congress and not in the president, who only acts while waiting for congress to act, and that the president is an executive abroad as he is at home, charged with carrying out the will of Congress. A few words of dispassionate explanation and a few moments of calm reflection will reassure the most timid. Astounded the Editor. Editor S. A. Brown, of Bennettsville, S. C., was once immediately surprised. "Through long suffering from dyspepsia," he writes, "my wife was greatly run down. She had no strength or vigor and suffered great distress from her stomach, but she tried Electric Bitters which helped her at once, and after using four bottles, she is entirely well, can eat anything. It's a grand tonic, and its gentle laxative qualities are splendid for torpid liver." For information on this report make a study of California law and decisions upon it, as illustrated by the experience of Honey Lake valley, and contrasts this law with those of States and countries. It is believed that report will command wide attention and carry much weight in favor of reform of present water laws in provision of new ones suited to needs of the growing irrigation industry. Democratic party believes in the very birth of that partyples of Jefferson have been crying shrill voices: "The goblins ye if ye don't watch out." Profit by the cry and hope profit by it in the forthcoming election. Thomas Jefferson returned to land from having represented confederacy at the court of Verona was to bring home a head full of disquisition in relation to the social contract with which, in motion for the French revolution, was then seething. He came to the first place in Washington's northern colonies, where government was purely Democratic, the public sentiment were disheartened by the ability of the whole peoplovern themselves wisely and in the southern colonies, where sentiment was patrician in character power being confined to a few families) the academic instruction斯恩 and his school of French was taken deep root, and Jefferson was its apostle. So it came about that political began to form in our newly organized with Washington and favoring a strongly centralized government, with suffrage less restricted; and Jefferson was (theoretically but never practiced for a weak central government). Jefferson had no party back of Silly Washington and Hamilton charge and powerful constituency; he must have or the measure ambition could not be real; he straightway fell to organize Democratic party of American state he could organize a party he excite the public mind, and the way to excite was to frighten, and just way to frighten was with a fear in those days people believed rats and were afraid of them. Persson's ghost was the ghost ofothy, just as Bryan's ghost is the of imperialism. Jefferson knew he could not frighten anyone by declaring that Hamilton and King favored a more highly central form of government than he did as wise, so he suffered his hair long, learned how to make pen sketches of skulls and crosses and began to declare that Washington and Hamilton (but especially Jackson), were planning to establish a city on the ruins of the young rebellion. He knew better but, consumptivistian that he was, he knew he must keep that horrible shape in the eyes of the people if he possess that political power for the thirsted, and his political empire was justified by the results. The democratic party was born of a monarchial nightmare, and in our day a real zealot is striving to deliver the existence that can not be obscured by weaving in front of it intricate and subtle webs of sophistry. In the eyes of the incapable all the elements and all the gods contribute to their undoing, and all the elements and all the gods of human destiny conspire to make their opponents victorious and prosperous. But sensible people know better. They know that the tree must be judged by its fruits, the workman by his work, and the political party by the condition of the country under its administration. The reader knows, of his own knowledge, that when this election was held four years ago "business was dead, industry paralyzed, and the national credit disastrously impaired; that the country's capital was hidden away and its labor distressed and unemployed." Of his own knowledge the reader knows that William McKinley had scarcely taken his seat when a wave of prosperity began to form in the manufacturing and financial centers of the east and to sweep its way across the continent, that it did sweep from shore to shore and that the whole country became prosperous. The business interests of the country had confidence in the policies and promises of the party in power and no other explanation is admissible or requisite. On this unquestioned statement of facts the Republican party craves judgment. Nothing extenuating, it asks to be judged by its deeds, and where is the honorable elector who will deny that demand? "Oiling Up." Just a little oil on the engine at the right time may mean the difference between life and death to passengers and crew. What oil is to the friction of the delicate parts of the engine, Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is to the delicate organs of the body. It eases their labor, prevents the loss of power and waste of energy caused by friction. Many a man who was all run down, whose limbs ache when he walked, whose back ached when he laid down, who breathed with difficulty, and coughed constantly, has been perfectly cured by the use of Doctor Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It purifies the blood, strengthens the stomach and heals weak lungs. Accept no substitute for "Golden Medical Discovery," nor any medicine called "just as good" by the dealer. Mr. Chas. Hunwick, of Lenox, Macomb Co., Mich., writes: "I have never felt better in my life than I do now. I have taken Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discussion with a right I can now walk quite with a right, I am able to awake before long, and as I have had to use cranes for nearly two years, I think I do not cough now and I can The consistency of the new Democracy was well exemplified at Kansas City by placing on the committee on resolutions, to formulate and fulminate a drastic plank on trusts, Mr. Van Wycke, one of the participants in the infamous New York ice trust, who is now fighting an anti-trust law in the courts of New York. It may reasonably be presumed that when the antitrust plank was adopted in committee all the members instinctively turned toward where Mr. Van Wycke sat and, with true Democratic unanimity, winked the other eye.

This is an age of consolidation, and the California Consolidated Petroleum company is born of this successful principle. The "ten-cent" oil companies are of few days and full of trouble. They must strike oil in their first wells or burst, for with their money gone in a dry hole their stock is killed. If they survive they will be swallowed by the California Consolidated or the Standard, for such is the history of the oil business. There is only room for two oil concerns like the California Consolidated and the Standard on the Pacific coast. These two giants will inevitably control the oil business.
