Editorial Note and Comment A valued subscriber writes to ask the man w. k. it all a question which stumps him—the first time that has ever occurred, 'pon honor. He asks, let us hope, in all seriousness: "Why is it that we elect no state senator in this district this fall, and yet a United States senator is to be elected by the next legislature?" God only knows. Perhaps it is because the last time we elected a state senator no United States senator was chosen. A story has been going the rounds of the political four hundred to the effect that, on the final vote at the Oxnard convention, Jeems McFadden used his potent influence with Steve Kelly to throw the San Bernardino delegation to Daniels and thus assist in the ultimate nomination of the man he had insidiously fought for years. Having thus scampered into what finally proved to be the band wagon, Jim made himself solid with the future congressman of the district (so the story goes), and, having done so, his endorsement will come to be necessary to all petitions for federal appointments in this county and as far east as Arrowhead if not Needles. That's the story. To all those budding aspirants for postmasterships to whom this story may come in the shape of a separate and distinct jar, I want to say it is pure bosh—utter balderdash. Let them calm themselves, quieting their fears meanwhile and give ear a very fine man, but he stands upon a platform that threatens danger to the fruit, nut, sugar-beet, wine, wool and other industries of Southern California. That platform denounces the Republican policy of protection as an outrage upon the people. It charges it with a tendency to increase prices, which is true. Take our one staple product of walnuts, for example. The price of French nuts is five cents per pound. Anaheim nuts bring ten cents. The tariff duty is three cents per pound. Thus the tariff serves to raise prices, not three cents, but five. It gives the Orange-county nutgrower a chance to market his crop at a slight modicum of profit, after paying his hired help the increased price for his toil over that doled out to the pauper labor of Europe. It gives him a chance to buy his daughter a piano, paying for it upon the installment plan; to send the boy to highschool, where he stands at the head of his class and gets his name in the paper in college athletics and mellows the old man's eyes whenever he looks upon that kid. It was different when the old man was a boy. He had no bicycle then. Well, bicycles were hardly a commercial quantity then; but it's dollars to doughnuts he had to travel to what little schooling he had afoot. The sister had no piano, there were no pictures upon the wall, no carpets upon the floor. Somehow the old man has come to wear a better suit of clothes of late. The old suit of homespun has been laid quietly away. The old man comes to town occasionally to chew the rag about politics and has even been known to PROSPERITY THE ISSUE IN THIS CAMPAIGN Increase of Wealth in California Greatest Ever Known in Its History—Let Well Enough Alone In 1897 the savings banks of San Francisco had deposits of... $100,820,765 49 In 1902 they had... 138,193,443 48 A gain in 5 years of over In 1897 the savings banks of interior towns had deposits of... 27,108,516 45 In 1902 they had... 49,545,057 25 A gain in 5 years of over In 1897 the commercial banks (state) of San Fran. had deposits of... 22,000,000 00 A gain in 5 yrs. of nearly In 1897 the commercial banks of interior towns had deposits of... 32,000,000 00 A gain in 5 years of over In 1897 the private banks of California had deposits of... 17,190,061 86 In 1902 they had... 52,647,683 29 A gain in 5 years of over In 1897 the private banks of California had deposits of... 35,000,000 00 A gain in 5 yrs. of nearly The grand total gain in deposits in all banks is over... $160,000,000 00 (Exact amount, $162,113,180 31.) Has any other community of a million and a half of people ever increased its bank deposits a hundred and sixty million dollars in five years? And does such a state of affairs indicate a need for a change of government? A Native Son Governor George C. Pardee, the Republican of the district (so the story goes), and, having done so, his endorsement will come to be necessary to all petitions for federal appointments in this county and as far east as Arrowhead if not Needles. That’s the story. To all those budding aspirants for postmasterships to whom this story may come in the shape of a separate and distinct jar, I want to say it is pure bosh—utter balderdash. Let them calm themselves, quieting their fears meanwhile, and give ear while I recount a tale which wafts itself down from the sugar-beet town, which besides coming as it does from a man of absolute truth, who was on the ground and had eyes to see, is characterized by the semblance of probability, which the other yarn is not. Jeems was at Sacramento and Oxnard for Smith—always against the Southern California men. When the final ballot came and Daniels was about to be declared the nominee after some fifty-eight ineffectual ballots, Jeems rushed up to the chairman and, getting his ear, demanded that the vote be not announced—that San Bernardino be permitted to change a sufficient number of votes from Daniels back to Nutt to prevent a nomination on that ballot. But the convention had wisely adopted a rule, following the action of the state convention, which prevented just this sort of an attempt at stampeding the delegates. Jeems is a sly old fox. This is the way Daniels was boiled at Newport. “You’re too late, sir!” the chairman replied sternly; “we have a rule against such practice. and Daniels is the nominee of this convention.” Jeems hung his diminished head and his wattels are said to have turned quite reddish, so much so they imparted a pink glow to his whiskers. And it is recorded that as Jim was leaving the hall, his red wattels and pink whiskers casting a lurid glow o’er the amphitheater, the man who had just been nominated, noticing the red wattles, laughed at them heartily—actually laughed at them. Whereat the red sunsets observed in that direction at the time are said to be attributable. Another month and the campaign will be over. From all points of the compass come excellent reports of big majorities to be rolled up for the ticket. Supervisor Potter and Don Marco Forster met in town a day or two ago, and happening to recur to this feature of the campaign, the former, desiring to give his home boy. He had no bicycle then. Well, bicycles were hardly a commercial quantity then; but it’s dollars to doughnuts he had to travel to what little schooling he had afoot. The sister had no piano, there were no pictures upon the wall, no carpets upon the floor. Somehow the old man has come to wear a better suit of clothes of late. The old suit of homespun has been laid quietly away. The old man comes to town occasionally to chew the rag about politics, and has even been known to venture beyond the borders of his own county to attend this or that convention of his party. The old man lives in a better house than he used to live in. He has paid off that mortgage, and he holds his head a leettle bit higher than he used to. The ten-cent nut crop will give him a chance to buy the old lady a new dress, and to indulge his fancy by purchasing for himself as a Xmas present that pair of red suspenders on display down at the store. This is what we call good old-fashioned Republican prosperity. This is what has made the Yankee nation the most powerful one upon earth. This is what has made it able to lick any nation that wants to fight. This Republican policy of protection has made its people big and sleek and fat and sassy. Candidate Smythe says this is not good for their livers. His party platform says the tariff increases the price of farm products, and this, it says, imposes grievous burdens upon “the people.” Who pays this increased price for these walnuts? Certainly not the laboring man. These nuts are purchased by the well-to-do classes of the east—the higher class of hotel men, the confectioners, the wealthy. Let the Democratic policy of a tariff for revenue only come into effect, and the price of this product would immediately fall to the level of the foreign article, for the Easterners would pay us no more than they could buy foreign nuts for. That would mean the ruination of one of the chief industries of Southern California. The crop in Orange county alone is worth $600,000. Cut this in half, and figure out the loss to our growers. Yet that is what Mr. Smythe’s platform stands for. It is to be hoped he will have a large audience and be given an opportunity to explain these things. Beautiful Complexions Are spoiled by using any kind of preparation that fills the pores of the skin. The best way to secure a clear complexion, free from sallowness, pimples, blotches, etc., is to keep the liver in good order. An occasional dose of Herbine will cleanse the bowels, reguining liver and so establish a clear boy. He had no bicycle then.

Yet that is what Mr. Smythe’s platform stands for. It is to be hoped he will have a large audience and be given an opportunity to explain these things. A Native Son Governor George C. Pardee, the Republican candidate for Governor, was born in California, and Franklin K. Lane, the Democratic candidate, was born in Canada. Ordinarily it does not matter much where a candidate may have been born, and in the present instance this question is not one of the larger issues of the campaign; but there would be a special appropriateness if in the first election in the new century a native son should be elected Governor of California. Since the American occupation every man elected Governor has been born off the soil of California. This is a fitting time to inaugurate a new departure by electing a Governor who was born on that soil. It would be an indication that with the beginning of the second half century of our history, those of the pioneers are fully of age and are prepared to step into the place which their fathers occupied before them. It would be a good proclamation to the world that California is no dependent on other communities for supply of brains or energy. It would not be possible to select more typical Californian than Dr George C. Pardee with whom to begin a line of native son Governors. He, anybody, is a product of California in fluences and conditions. He is a Californian by something more than that accident of birth. He was educated at public schools, the university and medical college which state has established and maintained. From his earliest years he has been in contact with those things which are most characteristic of his native state. He father was one of the most virile of those pioneers—a man who went into every thing which concerned public welfare and who wanted his son all trained to play a man’s part. As being youth George C. Pardee was able to front among his fellowmen and his natural ability for leadership was developed at an early age. He learned how to mingle with men and meet all classes on their own grounds Like other typical Californians both cosmopolitan. He has been broadened by contact with all phases of life: this community made up of people from every part of the earth. He equally at home in any kind of society and always self-possessed and kitted witted. He is a strong forceful member of the Roosevelt type—one whom Californians feel to be representative of themselves and of the great commonwealth they have founded. In short he is just the man to be chosen first native son Governor. Another month and the campaign will be over. From all points of the compass come excellent reports of big majorities to be rolled up for the ticket. Supervisor Potter and Don Marco Forster met in town a day or two ago, and happening to recur to this feature of the campaign, the former, desiring to give his home precinct as good a sendoff as its promised big Republican majority warranted, said to the Don: "We are going to have that banner in Buena Park this year." He referred to the banner offered the precinct rolling up the biggest majority for the ticket, and of which San Juan seems to have had a monopoly for a number of years past. "Don't you believe it," replied Don Marco, with his usual imperturbability, "San Juan wants that banner worse than ever this year, and intends to keep it. Buena Park cannot have it." All the same it's going to be a battle royal between these two precincts to see which of them is to get that flag. Each promises better than a hundred majority for the ticket. If San Juan wins, we are to have the customary barbecue in the sylvan glades of the Don's picture abode at that point; if Buena Park wins, the next county treasurer will show us what he can do in the way of a bull'shead breakfast with mint trimmings. The Democratic county candidates have not yet held a meeting here, but we are to have Candidate Smythe with us next Tuesday evening, and it is to be presumed the county candidates will all be here with him. Mr. Smythe is personally ern California. The crop in Orange county alone is worth $600,000. Cut this in half, and figure out the loss to our growers. Yet that is what Mr. Smythe's platform stands for. It is to be hoped he will have a large audience and be given an opportunity to explain these things. Beautiful Complexions Are spoiled by using any kind of preparation that fills the pores of the skin. The best way to secure a clear complexion, free from sallowness, pimples, blotches, etc., is to keep the liver in good order. An occasional dose of Herbine will cleanse the bowels, regulate the liver and so establish a clear, healthy complexion. 50c at Hatzfeld's. "Dr. Pardee is a representative Republican. He has served the people better." That is what the Examiner remarked less than three years ago, and it is as true now as it was when the leading Democratic newspaper said it. A Fiendish Attack An attack was lately made on C.F. Collier of Cherokee, Iowa, that nearly proved fatal. It came through his kidneys. His back got so lame he could not stoop without great pain, nor sit in a chair except propped by cushions. No remedy helped him until he tried Electric Bitters, which effected such a wonderful change that he writes he feels like a new man. This marvelous medicine cures backache and kidney trouble, purifies the blood and builds up your health. Only 50c at Hatzfeld's. The enthusiastic reception which Dr. Pardee met with in the south shows that that portion of the state is in line for the Northern California candidate for Governor. If other districts do as well as the region south of Tehachapi, the majority for Pardee will be an overwhelming one. "It Goes Right to the Spot" When pain or irritation exists in any part of the body the application of Ballard's Snow Liniment will give prompt relief. "It goes right to the spot," said an old man who was rubbing it in to cure his rheumatism. C.R. Smith, proprietor Smith House, Tenaha, Texas, writes: "I have used Ballard's Snow Liniment in my family for several years, and have found it to be a fine remedy for all aches and pains, and I recommend it for pains in the throat and chest." 25c, 50c and $1 at J.P. Hatzfeld's drugstore. The Prosperity of Labor The rapid growth of labor unions one of the wonders of the time, and that growth is coincident with the crease of prosperity in the country. During the years of adversity who followed the second inauguration Grover Cleveland the labor organizations dwindled away; unions were broken up and their charters abounded; the members being unable pay the dues; those unions which maintained their existence diminished in number so that in most cases they were a mere handful. To take one stance, it is said that in Oakland carpenters' union, which had always been the strongest in that city, down to 30 members. Today it 580 active members enrolled. A few statistics bearing on the greatest organization of all, the American Federation of Labor, will present facts in a striking way. In 1896 1897 the enrollment was about 425, from 1897 to 1899 there was a growth, but since the latter year increase has been rapid, and today Federation claims 2,100,000 members. The comparatively limited enrollment of 1897 has been increased five-fifth During the last year alone the growth has amounted to 500,000 members. During the same time two other labor organizations which are not in Federation have also grown rapidly These are the Western Federation Miners and the United Brotherhood Railway Employees. These two, with the Knights of Labor, probably no longer 150,000 If California alone is considered GRITY THE ISSUE IN THIS CAMPAIGN Wealth in California Greatest Known in Its History—Let Well Enough Alone Savings banks Francisco had of... $100,820,765 49 Savings banks Nor towns had of... 138,193,443 48 5 years of over savings banks Nor towns had of... 37,000,000 00 5 years of over commercial state) of San and deposits of... 27,108,516 45 5 years of over interior towns deposits of... 49,545,057 25 5 yrs. of nearly the commercial interior towns deposits of... 22,000,000 00 5 yrs. of nearly the commercial interior towns deposits of... 31,945,989 39 5 yrs. of nearly the commercial interior towns deposits of... 63,798,854 67 5 years of over the national California had of... 32,000,000 00 5 years of over private banks Cornia had def... 28,322,417 33 5 years of over private banks Cornia had def... 62,557,682 82 5 yrs. of nearly total gain in all banks amount, $162,113,180 31.) other community of a half of people ever increased deposits a hundred and sixty dollars in five years? And does rate of affairs indicate a need of government? Vive Son Governor C. Pardee, the Republican figures are truly remarkable. When the hard times were upon us there were probably not more than 15,000 members of labor unions in this state, and now there are 75,000. Nearly 40,000 marched in the recent Labor Day parade in San Francisco. In Los Angeles about 8000 are enrolled in the unions, and in Oakland and Alameda county not less than 4000. Organized labor is now a mighty army, but to what does it owe its strength? Obviously to the general prosperity of the country. The growth of power in the labor organizations since the good times began, with the return of the Republican party to the control of the government, has been as extraordinary as the growth of the trusts or the accumulation of wealth in the banks. There has never been anything like it seen. But since labor has so great an interest in the prosperity of the country, it also has an interest in supporting the means by which that prosperity has been attained, and this means the retention in the state and national government of the Republican party. Prosperity Statistics There is no better measure of the prosperity of a community than the condition of its banks. The banker is a holder of other people's money; when he is given a great deal of it to take care of it is an evidence that people are accumulating wealth. The banks are the reservoirs into which newly-created capital first flows, and, on the other hand, when the resources of the banks diminish, it is a proof that the community is suffering from a financial strangency. During the hard times following the panic of 1893, when the Democrats were in power, the bank assets fell off. For example, between 1895 and 1896 the assets of the banks of California decreased $5,318,803.18, and between 1896 and 1897 there was another decrease. But immediate action is required.

This is a fit to inaugurate a new departmental a Governor who was that soil. It would be an in-hat with the beginning of the 20th century of our history, the pioneers are fully of age prepared to step into the places their fathers occupied before they would be a good proclamation world that California is not on other communities for a brains or energy. It did not be possible to select a typical Californian than Dr. P. Pardee with whom to begin native son Governors. He, if it is a product of California and conditions. He is a Calloy something more than the first birth. He was educated in public schools, the university and college which the state has had and maintained. From his years he has been in contact with things which are most characteristic of his native state. His one of the most virile of the man who went into every which concerned the public welfare who wanted his son also to play a man's part. As boy George C. Pardee was alone front among his fellows, natural ability for leadership developed at an early age. He show to mingle with men and classes on their own ground. Other typical Californians he is titan. He has been broadened fact with all phases of life in community made up of people any part of the earth. He is at home in any kind of society, always self-possessed and keen. He is a strong, forceful man possessed type—one whom Californians feel to be representative of lives and of the great common-sense they have founded. In short, just the man to be chosen the five son Governor. Tot Causes Night Alarm "One night my brother's baby was taken with croup," writes Mrs. J. C. Snider of Crittenden, Ky. "It seemed it would strangle before we could get a doctor, so we gave it Dr. King's New Discovery, which gave quick relief and permanently cured it. We always give care of it is an evidence that people are accumulating wealth. The banks are the reservoirs into which newly-created capital first flows, and, on the other hand, when the resources of the banks diminish, it is a proof that the community is suffering from a financial stringency. During the hard times following the panic of 1893, when the Democrat were in power, the bank assets fell off. For example, between 1895 and 1896 the assets of the banks of California decreased $5,318,803.18, and between 1896 and 1897 there was another decrease. But immediately following the inauguration of McKinley the tide turned, and ever since it has been flowing in the direction of prosperity. The deposits in the banks have increased at a rate never before known here, if indeed there is a parallel for it to be found anywhere. In five years the growth in deposits has been a little over $162,000,-000, increasing from $206,481,597.88 to $368,594,778.19. The population of California is about a million and a half, and for that number of people to add a hundred and sixty-two millions to the bank deposits in five years is something which is probably unexamined in the history of finance. It proves beyond cavil that during these five years Republican rule the state has been prosperous with a degree of prosperity seldom attained anywhere. If the total assets of the banks were figured on, the absolute increase shown would be still greater, for during the five years in question bank assets have increased $192,263,141.68. During the single year 1901-1902 the increase has been $65,754,716.21. During the same year the gain in deposits alone was $55,405,951.28. These are tremendous figures. Another thing deserves to be noted, and this is that while the largest gain in savings deposits has been in San Francisco, the interior commercial banks have grown faster than those in the city. In five years the state commercial banks in the metropolis increased their deposits about $32,000,-000, but in the same time the deposits in the same kind of banks in the interior grew more than $34,000,000. This ought to be sufficient to prove that San Francisco is not getting all of the prosperity; the country is obtaining its share. Take it all in all, the exhibit made by these bank statistics is remarkable, even wonderful. That in five years the increase in bankable wealth should have been equal to three-fourths of all the accumulations of the preceding 50 years is as extraordinary as it was unexpected. In the face of such a showing can anyone seriously argue that a political revolution is needed either in the state or the nation in order to better conditions? On the contrary, is it not the part of wisdom to let well enough alone? The Royal Month and the Royal Disease Sudden changes of weather are especially trying, and probably to none more so than to the scroffulous and consumptive. The progress of scroffula during a normal October is commonly great. We never think of scroffula—its bunches, cutaneous eruptions and wasting of the bodily substance—without thinking of the great good many sufferers from it have derived from Hood's Sarsaparilla, whose radical and permanent cure of this one disease are enough to make it the most famous medicine in the world. There is probably not a city or town where Hood's Sarsaparilla has not proved its merit in more homes than one, in arresting Prosperity of Labor rapid growth of labor unions is the wonders of the time, and growth is coincident with the indefeating prosperity in the country. The years of adversity which led to the second inauguration of Cleveland the labor organizer windled away; unions were up and their charters aban-dened the members being unable to see dues; those unions which denied their existence diminished so that in most cases they mere handful. To take one in-initiit is said that in Oakland the workers' union, which had always been strongest in that city, ran into 30 members. Today it has five members enrolled. For statistics bearing on the great organization of all, the American Union of Labor, will present the striking way. In 1896 and the enrollment was about 425,000. By 1897 to 1899 there was a slow but since the latter year the union claims 2,100,000 members. Compartively limited enrollment has been increased five-fold. By the last year alone the growth counted to 500,000 members. Using the same time two other organizations which are not in the nation have also grown rapidly. Are the Western Federation of Mines and the United Brotherhood of Mine Employes. These two, with nights of Labor, probably numbered to 500,000. The accumulations of the preceding 50 years is as extraordinary as it was unexpected. In the face of such a showing can anyone seriously argue that a political revolution is needed either in the state or the nation in order to better conditions? On the contrary, is it not the part of wisdom to let well enough alone? Tot Causes Night Alarm "One night my brother's baby was taken with croup," writes Mrs. J. C. Snider of Crittenden, Ky. "It seemed it would strangle before we could get a doctor, so we gave it Dr. King's New Discovery, which gave quick relief and permanently cured it.

Justice and authority will always coexist under the national flag so long as the Republican party carries it. Deafness Cannot Be Cured By local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the castachian tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have a trembling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it entirely closed deafness is the result, and unless inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, bearing will be destroyed forever. Nine cases of deafness out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give one hundred dollars for any case of deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free. P. J. CHENET & Co., Toledo, O.
