Editorial Note and Comment The statement published in the One-Horse Newspapers that the result of the municipal election in San Francisco "disposes of the Governor's chances for renomination" is another one of those things which Tickle the Sides and Amuse. It shows, beside, the threadbare nature of the "argument" kept on tap by these fellows who engage themselves in Tearing Their Hair and Jumping Stiff-Legged whenever they Recall that Royal Roast administered to them by the man who wouldn't say a Harsh Word to a Cat. San Francisco elected the labor candidate for Mayor over the Republican and Democratic nominees, it is true; but that wicked town has not chosen a Republican Mayor in the Memory of the Oldest Inhabitant. Jim Phelan has occupied that Ex-salted Office for six years, and he comes pretty near telling How the Wind Blows in that Wide-Open Hamlet. Schmitz's election was the inevitable result of the strike—only that and nothing more. Still, the Republicans Walked Away with the Patronage Offices. Frisco was Always a Great Town to Trade In at an Election. But previous to Phelan, the Eye runs down a Long List of Names, and I don't believe there's the name of a Single Republican among them, except one, and he was Everlastingly Snowed Under at the Second Night Stand. So far as Governors are concerned, I don't believe Frisco ever gave one a majority before Gage—not one. And he defeated the ablest campaigner and Strange Bed Fellows and their Los Angeles Fellow Recipient of the Roast have been hoodwinking themselves with the idea that all these things put aside the claims for renomination of the most courageous Governor the State ever had. Hoodwinking themselves—nobody else. Each of the newspapers presided over by these three men has been within recent years, an outspoken antagonist of organized labor. Each barred out its force of union laborers. The Los Angeles Times is now the sole remaining offender; the others having been long since "whitewashed" in the usual order of events. What weight do they carry among that vast population who earn their bread by the sweat of their brow, and those who, while not laborers themselves, give them their earnest sympathy? On the contrary, how does that man stand, to whom, more than any other, is due the credit for settling the San Francisco strike, after it had existed, in its nerve-racking warfare, for nigh half a year? And yet these newspaper pickers have held a little mutual admiration confab and decreed that unless Their Will be Done, they will Continue to Make Faces and Jump Stiff-Legged Right Along. Let 'em. The man whose nomination is foisted upon the party by this unholy trinity of evil spirits, in the present temper of the people, will find himself the most deceived man who ever chased a political ambition to death in this State. Tom Flint cannot win with such support. Proclaimed as the "anti-boss" candidate, Flint is today carved into the memory of intrepid and falsehood. GOVERNMENT'S INTEREST IN THE PACIFIC As Great as Those of Any Other Nation and Destined to Indefinite Development. Secretary Hay spoke forcefully at the recent banquet of the New York Chamber of Commerce, his reference to government's interests in the Pacific being of especial interest to the people of the Coast. Secretary Hay responded to the toast "Our Diplomacy," and various points met with great applause especially when he mentioned the name of President McKinley. The speech obtained rapt attention and the applause was deafening when in his persecution he said: "No wantonness of strength will ever induce us to drive a hard bargain with another nation because it is weak, nor will any fear of ignoble criticism temper us to insult or defy a great power because it is strong, or even because it friendly." After an eloquent tribute to the memory of President McKinley, Secretary Hay said: "I dare to come to you because you have asked me, and he would have wished it, for he held that our personal feelings should never be considered when they conflicted with a public duty. And if I fall immeasurably below the standard to which he has accustomed you, the very comparisons you draw will be a tribute to his memory." "I am asked to say something about our diplomacy. You want from me nothing but the truth, and yet, if confine myself to the truth I cannot help feeling that I shall do my profession a wrong in the minds of those who have been in the habit of considering diplomacy an occult science, or mysterious as alchemy and as dangerous to morals as municipal politics. It must be admitted that this conception of the diplomatic function is not without a certain historical foundation." There was a time when diplomacy Republicans Walked Away with the Patronage Offices. Frisco was Always a Great Town to Trade In at an Election. But previous to Phelan, the Eye runs down a Long List of Names, and I don’t believe there’s the name of a Single Republican among them, except one, and he was Everlastingly Snowed Under at the Second Night Stand. So far as Governors are concerned, I don’t believe Frisco ever gave one a majority before Gage—not one. And he defeated the ablest campaigner and most puissant politician ever nominated by the Democrats for that office, by more than 3800 in his own town, and running ahead more than 8000 of McKinley’s majority in the same town two years before. Gage defeated Maguire, the idol of the San Francisco Democracy, a man who had swept the town repeatedly while running for Congress, by this splendid majority, obliterating Maguire’s majority of 4900 two years before; carrying the State by the unheard-of majority of 20,000, and paving the way for the splendid McKinley majority of 40,000 at the next election. Republicans owe any Debt of Gratitude to that man! But, about the other Republican Governors whom San Francisco voted against? Cast your Eagle Eye down the List, and you will note that in Recent Years that Rare Old Town has Swatted ‘Em Real Hard. Budd buried Estee, Pond defeated Markham, Bartlett beat Swift. and so it has gone; and so the Democrats beguiled themselves into believing it would Continue to Go, with their Idol in the Running. That city had been the graveyard of Republican hopes in many a hard-fought campaign, until Gage Brushed Them Clouds Away, and put in the Entering Wedge that placed California permanently in the Column of Republican States. Now that the bay town has followed its Usual Erratic Course in Matters Municipal, this Gang of Grafters who couldn’t dominate the Governor see in it a Sure Sign of that gentleman’s foreordained defeat! Wouldn’t That Jar You? The election of Schmitz means nothing which can be by the Remotest Stretch of the Imagination be connected with the Mazy Whirl of State Politics next year. Any more than the election of Kalloch had, by aid of the bullet of the afterwards assassinated DeYoung, upon the election of Gov. Perkins twenty odd years ago. What bearing can the San Francisco election possibly have upon the contest, if there be one, in next less Their Will be Done, they will Continue to Make Faces and Jump Stiff-Legged Right Along. Let ’em. The man whose nomination is foisted upon the party by this unholy trinity of evil spirits, in the present temper of the people, will find himself the most deceived man who ever chased a political ambition to death in this State. Tom Flint cannot win with such support. Proclaimed as the “antiboss” candidate, Flint is today carrying an overweight of bosses for his years. What would be the result of the win-out of this unholy conspiracy? A candidate for Chief of Police at San Juan Capistrano would have to go to Los Angeles to assure Gen. Otis that he had subscribed for his paper ever since it started, had never thought of taking any other, and would if necessary act as resident correspondent of his paper in all the towns along Los Alisos creek. We should have to get his permission to bid upon the city printing, and Deacon Shaw of the Heraldo del País would have to use his transportation to get permission to trim his red whiskers. And Skip Craig—but he and the General have never been presented one to the other. Neither will ever know what they Missed! Flint anti-boss? Looks like it; doesn’t it, Skip? Our great and good friend, Gen. Otis, has already taken quite an interest in Orange county politics. The Dicky Birds speak of Divers and Sundry Telephone Messages coming to prospective candidates for county offices hereaway, bidding them hike up to Los Angeles for a “Conference.” Now, whence all this Solicitude for our Internal Welfare? Of course we understand the General would give his Eye-tooth to Capture this County’s Delegation to the next State Convention. We’ll tell him how he can do it. Let him close his Eyes and Open his Mouth and say “Gage!” and the whole delegation will be wid him. Speaking about Skip Craig, reminds me that he is down on the Frisco organization ever since the boys turned him down for State Printer, eight years ago. During his quest for the office, Skip wandered off as far north as that wicked city, put on his plug hat, and had his picture in all the papers. The newsboys yelled their extras: “All about Skip Craig, who ain’t going to be State Printer!” Skip went off to have a conference with Col. Burns about it; but as soon as Burns heard about his coming, he lit out for Mazatlan. Skip has ever since been “I am asked to say something about our diplomacy. You want from me nothing but the truth, and yet, if confine myself to the truth I cannot help feeling that I shall do my profession a wrong in the minds of those who have been in the habit of considering diplomacy an occult science, or mysterious as alchemy and as dangerous to morals as municipal politics. It must be admitted that this conception of the diplomatic function is not without a certain historical foundation. “There was a time when diplomacy was a science of intrigue and falsehood of traps and mines and counter-mines. It may be another instance of that cruelty with which I have often been charged by European critics when say that I really believe the world has moved onward in diplomacy as in many other matters. In my experience diplomatic life, which now covers more years than I like to look back upon, in the far greater record of American diplomacy which I have read and studied, I can say without hesitation that we have generally told square what we wanted, announced early negotiations what we were willing to give, and allowed the other side to accept or reject our terms. During this time in which I have been prominent concerned in our foreign relations can say that we have been met by representatives of other powers by the same spirit of frankness and sincerity. “As to the measure of success which our recent diplomacy has met with, is difficult, if not impossible, for me to speak. There are two important lines of human endeavor in which men are forbidden even to allude to their successes—affairs of the heart and diplomatic affairs. “But if we are not permitted to boast of what we have done, we can least say a word about what we have tried to do and the principles which have guided our action. The brief expression of our rule of conduct perhaps, the Monroe doctrine and the golden rule. With this simple change we can hardly go far wrong. “I think I may say that our sister publics to the south of us are perfect convinced of the sincerity of our attitude. They know we desire the property of each of them and peace and harmony among them. We no longer want their territory than we covet their mountains of the moon. We are grieved and distressed when there are differences among them, but even then we should never think of trying to pose any of those differences unless there is request of both parties to it. Even our earnest desire for peace among them will lead us to any activity which might offend their national dignity or their just sense of independence. We would endow them with all consideration we claim for ourselves. “As to what we have tried to do—what we are still trying to do—in general field of diplomacy, there is reason for doubt on the one hand reticence on the other. President Kinley, in his messages during the last four years, has made uneasy subject clearly clear. We have striven, on The election of Schmitz means nothing which can by the Remotest Stretch of the Imagination be connected with the Mazy Whirl of State Politics next year. Any more than the election of Kalloch had, by aid of the bullet of the afterwards assassinated DeYoung, upon the election of Gov. Perkins twenty odd years ago. What bearing can the San Francisco election possibly have upon the contest, if there be one, in next year's Republican convention, anyhow? And how will the "regular organization" be affected by it? Fought as was its candidate for Mayor by those strangest of political bedfellows (Spreckles and DeYoung), were not the delegates to the nominating convention put through a running fire of abuse and vilification by these would-be bosses, to the end that they might intimidate and as a result possibly control the municipal convention? And what was the result? The regulars simply swept the city. Out of the eighteen Assembly districts they swept fourteen clean as a whistle; they had a good working majority in three of the others, and in the last they dictated the complexion of the delegation. But notwithstanding all this, the Frisco organization ever since the boys turned him down for State Printer, eight years ago. During his quest for the office, Skip wandered off as far north as that wicked city, put on his plug hat, and had his picture in all the papers. The newsboys yelled their extras: "All about Skip Craig, who ain't going to be State Printer!" Skip went off to have a conference with Col. Burns about it; but as soon as Burns heard about his coming, he lit out for Mazatlan. Skip has ever since been down on the Frisco boys, and leans to Flint. But Flint isn't going to win. He's going to be among the "also ran." And so will Skip, if he doesn't watch out. The Los Angeles Herald notes the arrival of James McFadden of Newport Beach at a Los Angeles hotel, and refers to him as "Editor McFadden." Hardly correct. Mr. McFadden is not yet an editor. He is Linn Shaw's angel, and is said to be "coughing up" a large-sized wad weekly, to keep the Man on Lookout a straddle of his job. This reminds us of how the Herald used to write things up about Orange county residents years ago. One time Plez James, the banker, went to town, and, in the personals next day, that great metropolitan paper announced that "P. Leg Jones, the Anaheim tinker," was in town. But that was Burton's writing, and no man on earth could decipher his hieroglyphics. Did you ever see the Governor take the train at Bandini? Bandini is a flag station on the Santa Fe, s'teen miles from nowhere—a dozen or so miles this side the Angelic Continued on Fourth Page. As to what we have tried to do what we are still trying to do—in general field of diplomacy, there is reason for doubt on the one hand reticence on the other. President Kinley, in his messages during the four years, has made suject freely clear. We have striven on lines laid down by Washington, to cultivate friendly relations with powers, but not to take part in the motion of groups or combination among them. A position of competition independence is not incompatible with relations involving not friends alone, but cocurrent action as well important emergencies. We have always in view the fact that we pre-eminently a peace-loving people that our national activities are in direction of trade and commerce; the vast development of our industry imperatively demands that we not only retain and confirm our love on our present markets, but seek steadily, by all honorable means, to tend our commercial interests in practical direction. "It is for this reason we have initiated the treaties of reciprocity we now await action of the Senate; and them conceived in the spirit of protection to our own industries and mutually advantageous to ourselves our neighbors. In the same spirit have sought successfully to induce the great powers to unite in a nation of the general principle of equality or commercial access and opportunity in the markets of the Orient." Believe that a 'fair field' and no faction is all we require; and with less that we cannot be satisfied. If we accept the assurances we have received as honest and genuine, as I certify, that equality will not be denied and the result may be safely left American genius and energy.

We was a time when diplomacy Pacific Ocean as great now as those of any other power and destined to indefinite development. We have opened our doors to the people of Hawaii; we have accepted the responsibility of the Philippines, which providence imposes on us; we have put an end to the embarrassing condition in which we were involved in Samoa, and while abandoning none of our commercial rights in the entire group, we have established our flag and our authority in Tutuila, which gives us the finest harbor in the South Seas. Next in order will come a Pacific cable and an isthmian canal for the use of all well-disposed people, but under exclusive American ownership and American control—of both of which great enterprises President McKinley and President Roosevelt have been the energetic and consistent champions. "Sure as we are of our rights in these matters, convinced as we are of the authenticity of the vision which has led us thus far and still beckons us forward, I can yet assure you that so long as the administration of your affairs remains in hands as strong and skillful as those to which they have been and are now committed, there will be no more surrender of our rights than there will be violation of the rights of others. The President to whom you have given your invaluable trust and confidence, like his now immortal predecessor, is as incapable of bullying a strong power as he is of wringing a weak one. He feels and knows—for has he not tested it in the currents of heavy fight, as well as in the toilsome work of administration?—that the nation over whose destinies he presides has a giant's strength in the works of war, as in the walks of peace. But that consciousness of strength brings with it no temptation to do injury to any power on earth, the proudest or the humblest. We frankly confess we seek the friendship of all the powers: want to trade with all peoples; we are conscious of resources that will make our commerce a source of advantage to them and also profit to ourselves. But LOCAL JOTTINGS OF INTERFST Burned Mail. E. J. Barrett on Thursday received a letter which showed unmistakable evidences of having been in the train fire the morning before near Needles, as reported in these columns last week. The edges were singed and it must have had a close call from destruction. The letter was an important document from Mr. Barrett's oil company. Postmaster Littlefield reports a number of letters simiarly scorched. Persons who have missed letters which they have been looking for from the East had better write again, making inquiries of their correspondents, for 30,000 letters were destroyed in this fire, and quite probably a considerable number of them were destined for this locality. It was at first feared Mail Agent Coons, formerly of this city, was on one of the destroyed trains, but subsequent information proved the fear to have been groundless. Oil Magnate. R. L. Bisby, the oil magnate, was in town on Monday from Los Angeles talking oil, real estate and kindred topics. Since going into oil Bisby tepds to embonpointe, and might be said to be in training for aldermanic proportions. Years ago when he was a Santa Ana pedagogue, he was thin as a sapling, but his push and energy, beside making him fat, have put him on the high road to being a millionaire. Government Land. An important document signed by President Roosevelt has been received by the United States Land Office in Los Angeles throwing open to settlement over 70,000 acres of valuable land in Southern California. The territory is on the San Jacinto forest reserve, and is officially designated as townships 8, 9 and 10 south, range 8 east.

We have striven, on the He feels and knows—for has he not tested it in the currents of heavy fight, as well as in the toilsome work of administration?—that the nation over whose destinies he presides has a giant's strength in the works of war, as in the walks of peace.

We frankly confess we seek the friendship of all the powers: want to trade with all peoples; we are conscious of resources that will make our commerce a source of advantage to them and also profit to ourselves. But wonantness or strength will ever induce us to drive a hard bargain with another nation because it is weak, nor will any fear of ignoble criticism tempt us to insult or defy a great power because it is friendly. "The attitude of our diplomacy may be indicated in a text of Scripture which Franklin—the first and greatest of our diplomats—tells us passed through his mind when he was presented at the court at Versailles. It was a text his father used to quote to him in the old candle shop in Boston when he was a boy: "Seest thou a man diligent in business; he shall stand before kings." "Let us be diligent in our business and we shall stand—stand, you see, not crawl, nor swagger—stand as a friend and equal, asking nothing, putting up with nothing but what is right and just among our people in the great democracy of nations." After he concluded Secretary Hay was obliged several times to acknowledge the applause accorded him by the diners. BOTH FOOD AND MEDICINE. Fruit Cure for Some of the Ills of the Human Body. The curative value of fruit is becoming more and more insisted upon by those who make a study of dietetics. Grapes are recommended for the dyspeptic, the anemic and for those with a tendency to gout and liver troubles. Plums, also, are said to be a cure for gouty and rheumatic tendencies. The acid fruits, especially lemons and oranges, are particularly good for stomach troubles and rheumatism. It is not sufficient, say the advocates of the fruit cure, to eat a small quantity at breakfast or dinner. One should eat from two to eight pounds of grapes a day, or, if oranges are the curative agency, the number to be eaten in a day may vary from three to six. A healthy condition of the body depends upon a perfect balance of foods taken. There are many other factors entering into the question, but this feature must not be forgotten. Few people there are who can keep healthy without fruit. How absurd, some one says, to be told to eat fruit when everybody eats it. Yes, but how do you eat it? Do you take a definite amount of it, the same as you do of meat and potatoes, or do you eat it as you do candy? If you suffer from an acute attack of indigestion after a dinner of soup, meats, pickles, sauces, salad, cakes... Never thought of such a sign for a medicine did you? Well, it's a good sign for Scott's Emulsion. The body has to be repaired like other things and Scott's Emulsion is the medicine that does it. These poor bodies wear out from worry, from over-work, from disease. They get thin and weak. Some of the new ones are not well made—and all of the old ones are racked from long usage. Scott's Emulsion fixes all kinds. It does the work both inside and out. It makes soft bones hard, thin blood red, weak lungs strong, hollow places full. Only the best materials are used in the patching and the patches don't show through the new glow of health. No one has to wait his turn. You can do it yourself—you and the bottle.
