Editorial Note and Comment Senator Bulla of Los Angeles has been getting himself interviewed in San Francisco, and this is what he says of politics in Orange county: The sentiment in the south is crystallizing around Flint. There is no doubt of it. His visit was like an ovation. When he went down into Orange county, where they had some ceremonies over the opening of a new courthouse, the people received him as if he already were the Governor of the State. I have not been in Orange county myself, but I expect the so-called McFadden interests there will be for Flint. You know McFadden, the friend of Senator Perkins and head of the big Newport Lumber company? Senator Bulla many weeks ago claimed Orange county to be "solid for Flint." Now we know upon what he bases his claim—the McFadden interests. But Jim McFadden is not the only oyster in the cocktail in Orange county—not by many. Some people used to profess to believe that whenever Jim took snuff everybody in the county sneezed; but that isn't so. Jim is a good fellow, but he can't swing Orange county against the Governor. Senator Bulla? Ob, Bulla is a "false alarm!" Rural free delivery, judging from the tenor of department reports from Washington, would seem to have been an instantaneous and widespread success throughout the country. From the report of the Postmaster-General we take the following excerpt: Rural free delivery has advanced well as the "resident correspondent" in other sections of the northern part of the county. He is a Democrat, never voted the Republican ticket in his life, and is a fit associate for Gen. Wu Ting Huh in that person's assault upon the Republican works. It may be true that there are Republicans here and there who support Flint. Jim McFadden of Santa Ana is one that we know of, and there might possibly be others in the county. But for every one who can be counted for Flint, we will wager a hundred can be counted for Gov. Gage. The Times is making a loud howl against the Governor, but if its pa-laver have no more foundation than that about Orange county being for Flint, it must be light and airy as a summer's cloud. This Times Democratic correspondent has of late had considerable to say about prospective Republican candidates in Orange county for next Fall's election. It is understood he has Otis' instructions to dish up this sort of thing, for the season that Otis is known to have telephoned some of these gentlemen (whose names were used without their knowledge, consent or authority), bidding them to come up to his office for "a conference." Otis is going to his length in trying to put his finger in the Orange county political pie; but, unlike Jack Horner, we doubt if he be able to pull out any plums, or to say, "What a great political wire-puller am I." It is our opinion that if Gage stepped out of the fight right now, Flint could not secure the nomination for Governor next year. CALIFORNIA'S PROMINENCE AT NATIONAL CAPITAL Interests of the State Were Never so Favorably Regarded as at Present—Reservoirs and Irrigation. The interests of California were never so prominent at Washington. Reports of Cabinet officials deal liberally with the state and its resources, as witness the report of Secretary Wilson on the Department of Agriculture, published in these columns last week. There seems at last to be a full realization in the East regarding the State's manifold interests which cannot be conducted vastly to the ultimate good of the Pacific Coast. Now Secretary Hitchcock has pleased things to say relative to reclamation of arid lands and conservation of water supply. These public documents from time immemorial have been regarded as being excessively "dry," but this year's reports are filled with matters of engaging interest to Californians. Speaking upon these subjects Secretary Hitchcock says: "There is no question now before the people of the United States of greatest importance than the conservation of the water supply and the reclamation of the arid lands of the West, and their settlement by men who actually will build homes and create communities." "The argument has been presented that if the government will not make it possible to bring water to those lands they should be turned over to the states, but the majority of citizens who have studied the subject are opposed to such action, on the ground that the vacant public lands are the heritage of the people of the United States and should be held for the creation of homes, and not made a subject of speculation, as almost invariably has been the case with lands donated to the states. The whole trend of enlightened public sentiment is in favor of an expansion of industries and commerce in..." Rural free delivery, judging from the tenor of department reports from Washington, would seem to have been an instantaneous and widespread success throughout the country. From the report of the Postmaster-General we take the following excerpt: Rural free delivery has advanced with increased strides. Its extension during the past year has been nearly three times as great as the whole amount of service previously established. The number of routes in operation at the beginning of the fiscal year was 1,276, and at the close 4,201. During the current year, with an augmented appropriation and a more experienced force, the work will proceed still more rapidly. At the opening of December 6,009 routes will be running, and under present plans the number will increase by July 1, 1902, to 8,600. The rural population now receiving daily service is about 4,000,000, and at the end of the fiscal year it will reach 5,700,000. The delivery system will then cover more than a quarter of the eligible portion of the country, and at the present rate of establishment the entire area suited to the service—that is, as estimated, a million square miles of territory, with 21,000,000 of rural residents—will be brought within its scope in less than four years. The mail will then, if the work goes on, be delivered at every door in the United States, except in the most remote mountainous and sparsely settled sections, and in villages of limited receipts where the postoffice is within easy reach. The demand for the service grows with the public experience of its convenience and utility. The number of applications at this time last year whose now pending and ion amount to 6.1 million routes which are only one mile away already asked for. Rural free delivery has been a success from the start at Anaheim. The three routes in operation here serve hundreds of rural inhabitants with mail daily, and the service is constantly expanding. Need is felt at the present moment for an extra carrier, and the establishment of another route would seem to be a matter for early attention by the department. A San Francisco correspondent, writing of the heartiness with which the Governor's name was received at the recent anti-Chinese convention in that city, says: The mere mention of Gage's name brought forth the heartiest cheer from the working men in the convention. It was very marked, and it was indeed a pity that the Governor was not present to assume and take men (whose names were used without their knowledge, consent or authority), bidding them to come up to his office for "a conference." Otis is going to his length in trying to put his finger in the Orange county political pie; but, unlike Jack Horner, we doubt if he be able to pull out any plums, or to say, "What a great political wire-puller am I." It is our opinion that if Gage stepped out of the fight right now, Flint could not secure the nomination for Governor next year. Closely allied with Otis in his senseless warfare against the Governor, is J. R. Newberry, the man who for a year past has been engaged in an attempt to rob Orange county irrigators of their rights to the water in the Santa Ana river at Rincon. Newberry and Otis are a precious pair to talk about influencing Orange county politics. With them is one R. Q. Wickham, a shabby-genteel reformer, who some time ago, in Los Angeles, made the preposterous statement that he "could swing Orange county to the support of any candidate he chose." Wickham left Orange county several years ago, owing nearly everybody in sight. He swindled men on notes, and left bills unpaid right and left. A pretty pigeon this fellow to talk about "swinging the county." But the Governor's popularity in Orange county does not rest upon the off-color of these insurgents venting their petty spite upon him. It rests upon the fact that he is giving the State the best and most economical administration it ever had. Gage has a thousand friends county where Otis, Newham have not one. Ana Bulletin, following the wake of the recent anti-Chinese convention in San Francisco, exclaims the Democrats are alone entitled to credit for Chinese exclusion, and that the Republicans favor the immigration of that people. "I know what I am talking about, for I was there!" yells this professional distorter of the truth. It is true the chairman of the anti-Chinese convention attempted to make political capital for himself and his party at that gathering; just the same as the Santa Ana paper now sets itself up to claim that the Democracy is alone entitled to the credit of excluding the yellow hordes. Whatever petty advantage either may arrogate to himself by this practice, he is entitled to. We had an election in California not so many years ago, on Chinese exclusion and the people voted as a "The argument has been presented that if the government will not make it possible to bring water to those lands they should be turned over to the states, but the majority of citizens who have studied the subject are opposed to such action, on the ground that the vacant public lands are the heritage of the people of the United States and should be held for the creation of homes, and not made a subject of speculation, as almost invariably has been the case with lands donated to the states. The whole trend of enlightenment public sentiment is in favor of an expansion of industries and commerce in ternally through wise action by the national government, rather than attempting to get rid of the duties and opportunities of ownership by giving away the valuable property. "Where reservoirs or main line canals are built by the national government to furnish water for the public lands, the administration should proceed in harmony with the State laws as would be the case with any other large landowner—States and nation co-operating to accomplish a result far reaching benefit to both. "For several years this department has been urging the enactment of legislation to regulate the sale and use of timber on the unappropriated and unreserved public lands. The act of June 3, 1878, known as the timber and stone act, will, if not repealed or radically amended, result ultimately in the complete destruction of the timber on the unappropriated and unreserved public lands." Secretary Hitchcock enunciates certain principles which will govern in future care and disposal of remaining public lands of the United States. These principles are radically different from those which have governed Congress and the Interior Department during last 100 years. The secretary declares: Third—The conservation by the government not only of forest reserves but of all timber upon government land. Fourth—An absolute dismissal of this proposition to give the national forest or public domain into the keeping State governments. These views will not meet their dorsurement of those interested in securing special privileges upon public property, but they will be enthusiastically sustained by every scientific effort who has devoted any time thought to the matter involved, and by the people of West who have been living for so many years under the hazard administration of the past. Is evident that Secretary Hitchcock has refused to be influenced by certain A San Francisco correspondent, writing of the heartiness with which the Governor's name was received at the recent anti-Chinese convention in that city, says: The mere mention of Gage's name brought forth the heartiest cheer from the working men in the convention. It was very marked, and it was indeed a pity that the Governor was not present to assume and take the place which belongs to him as the idol of the unpolitical business and labor interests of the State. Mayor Phelan and a few primary league delegates may float upon the tide against unrestricted Chinese immigration for a few days, but they can't make the people believe they are to be saved because of their thinly-disguised efforts to make party and personal glory out of it. It's a sort of scramble for credit among a lot of political glory seekers who have no better excuse for encumbering the public eye. There are hundreds of earnest, honest working men among the delegates, who are sincere in seeing a pressing danger.

Price including the spraying tube is 75 cents. Druggists or by mail. The liquid form embodies medicinal properties of the solid preparation. We had an election in California not so many years ago, on Chinese exclusion, and the people voted as a unit in favor of an anti-Chinese law. The present Chinese-exclusion law was passed by a Republican Congress, and was carried through the Senate and House by Republican votes. This law, which expires by limitation in May next, will be re-enacted by a Republican Congress, and the bill signed by a Republican President. The California delegation in Congress, composed of two Senators and seven Representatives, is solidly Republican, and is acting as a unit in favor of re-enacting the exclusion law. Chairman Geary of the San Francisco convention sought to make political capital by appointing four Democrats to one Republican upon the committee to go to Washington to argue with Congress about the necessity for exclusion; but the California delegation in Congress may be looked upon to do their full duty, nevertheless. It is true there are people in the New England States who do not favor Chinese exclusion—Democrats as well as Republicans. But to claim that the Democratic party is alone entitled to the credit for Chinese exclusion, and to say the Republican party favors the immigration of that people to our shores, is about as near the truth as some Democratic editors ever come to it. Fourth—An absolute dismissal of the proposition to give the national forest or public domain into the keeping of State governments. These views will not meet the indorsement of those interested in securing special privileges upon public property, but they will be enthusiastically sustained by every scientific expert who has devoted any time to thought to the matter involved, and to the people of the West who have been living for so many years under the harsh administration of the past. is evident that Secretary Hitchcock has refused to be influenced by certain powerful interests, which are growing enormously prosperous through evasion of the spirit of the land and timber laws, whereby they were able to appropriate to themselves the most valuable forests and most fertile land to the exclusion of settlers and the disruption of the Western States. No Secretary of the Interior has made more radical recommendations shown a better comprehension of the needs of a part of the United States from which few cabinet officers can choose. His report will prove a strong card for the forces which will be work this winter to secure reform in the lands and a business-like thoughtful administration of the mainder of the rapidly decreasing public domain.

Senator Fairbanks spoke only the truth when he said at Indianapolis on November 14th: "Mr. McKinley was a great, true, loyal American, the ideal President of the United States. His successor is another brave, courageous American. Our country today stands easily first among the nations. No stain rests on its banner because of any degrading act. The future is assured." Secretary of Agriculture Wilson has had the growing of hard macaroni wheat started in this country, and it will not be long before we can keep to ourselves the $750,000 we have been paying out yearly for our importations of that cereal. The London Times of November 1st reports a meeting of the National Liberal Club, at which Robert Donald read a paper on "Trusts and British Trade," from which we quote as follows: "It was to the restless spirit of enterprise and improvement animating the American manufacturer that the extraordinary progress of American industry in recent years was due. Our keenest intellects have not, as in America, turned to trade. Our colleges have not linked themselves to commerce. We need a class of imperial commercial statesmen to pilot us through the transition stage of industrial evolution." All of which is a strong tribute to American methods. Our army of commercial invasion in Europe has already captured a good share of the underground railways of London, has negotiations well under way for tractionally absorbing St. Petersburg, and has just begun to turn its siege guns on the slow transit lines of Paris. The American sugar-beet crop this year will be larger than ever before, thanks to the effort of our wisely directed department of agriculture.

Miss Theresa Mullinix of Santa Ana was married at the home of her mother in that city on Thanksgiving Day to Walter Whitson of Fullerton. Professor Ludwig Thomas of Los Angeles executed "O Promise Me," on the piano with beautiful effect. Many valuable and useful presents were made, and the dinner which followed the ceremony consumed the greater portion of the afternoon. Mr. and Mrs. Whitson took the evening train for Los Angeles, from which point they proceeded to Echo Mountain and Mount Lowe, where they will spend a week or ten days, after which they will return to Fullerton. They will be at home to their friends after January 1. Thanks Extended. The Sisters of St. Catherine's Orphan Asylum have favored us with the following: The Dominican Sisters of St. Catherine's Orphan Asylum wish to express their most heartfelt gratitude to all the kind ladies and gentlemen of Los Angeles, Anaheim and surroundings for the pleasant Thanksgiving Day offered the little orphan boys through the magnanimous offerings of these their benefactors.

The American sugar-beet crop this year will be larger than ever before, thanks to the effort of our wisely directed department of agriculture. The world's consumption of beet sugar this year will be about 6,600,000 tons. We have the suitable soil; we have the money, men and brains to work it; we have the most improved machinery to make the sugar, we know how to sell it when we make it, and the world is our market. All the opportunities are ours; let us go in and capture the bulk of the 6,600,000 or more tons for next year. Alabama has gained $18,000,000 in the assessed value of its real and personal property in one year, the figures being $284,000,000 against $266,000,000. The state is just that much richer in one year by the development of its resources under Republican national policies. Even those who have so persistently opposed the adoption of such policies are forced to share in their benefits. Republican golden "rain falls on the just and the unjust" alike. Enough freight is waiting at Chicago to fill 20,000 more cars than shippers can get; as much is piling up each day as can be got out. We find ourselves in possession of a new coal field, bordering on the Arctic, 300 miles long, all one immense bed of bituminous coal, suitable for household purposes. Surely we can say that our natural resources are illimitable. Our home consumption of copper in 1901 will be 425,000,000 pounds. By far the largest yet. On Friday last Uncle Sam was obliged to pay $920,015, so buy in $824,300 of its unmatured bonds. He had to pay nearly $96,000 bonus or premium, to retire those bonds, instead of getting that much less for new bonds, as in the Democratic years 1892-1896.

Erwin Fickas, son of David Fickas, residing south of Santa Ana, was accidentally shot Thanksgiving afternoon while hunting doves. He was in company of Charlie Felton at the time. Just before coming to what is known as the "Willows" he sighted a pair of doves on a limb. In climbing over an intervening fence to get within distance his gun was accidentally discharged. The whole of the charge of small shot passed through the fleshy part of his right hand. The hand had to be amputated. Seeds Follow Flag. Secretary of Agriculture Wilson has been making an investigation recently into the condition of agriculture in the Philippines and is surprised to find that conditions there are no better. He has decided to send one of his experts with a corps of men to the island to make a study of conditions there and make recommendations as to the best means to follow better results to the agricultural classes. He believes personally there was an unlimited field to work in and that with intelligent direction the islands would produce a diversity of valuable crops. Mr. Wilson says that Congress doubled the appropriation for seeds for the present fiscal year, and he has ample authority to send them wherever the flag floats. The expert will make a careful study of the soils and what will grow in different kinds of earth. He will furnish seeds accordingly and will give instructions as to the most modern methods of working the crops and gardens. As more men are needed they will be sent over by the department. Secretary Wilson thinks the field is a great and interesting one, and that the Filipinos should be given all the aid possible by the government to build up the farms and make them rich and productive.

The first strong and full of ginger, the second flabby, weak and tired out before he begins. The Does your horse "feel his oats"? What a difference between the grain-fed and the grass-fed horse! The first strong and full of ginger, the second flabby, weak and tired out before he begins. The feeding makes the difference. Children are not alike either. One is rosy, bright-eyed, full of life and laughter, another is pale, weak and dull. The feeding again is responsible. Sickly children need special feeding. They don't "feel their oats". Scott's Emulsion adds just the right richness to their diet. It is like grain to the horse. The child gets new appetite and strong digestion. Scott's Emulsion is more than food. It is a strong medicine. It rouses up dull children, puts new flesh on thin ones and red blood into pale ones. It makes children grow. Scott's Emulsion makes ordinary food do its duty. This picture represents the Trade Mark of Scott's Emulsion and is on the wrapper of every bottle. Send for free sample. SCOTT & BOWNE, 409 Pearl St., New York. 50: and $1. all druggists.
