Incorporated That Balance of Trade America's pocketbook was enriched by practically $500,000,000 through the exportations last year of cotton the products of that staple, according to a statement issued by the Bureau of Statistics of the Department of Commerce and Labor. The exports of this product amounted to one-fourth, or 28 percent of the $1,773,000,000 worth of the domestic exports. Of the $413,000,000 worth of raw cotton exports, $11,000,000 went to Japan, a reduction compared with 1905. In quantity the record shows a falling off as compared with 1905, the total number of pounds shipped during that year being 4,137,154,935 while for 1906 they were only 3,850,229,030.

The falling off in the quantity, however, was more than offset by the increase in the price of cotton exports, the increase in value in 1906 exceeding the previous year by $21,000,000. The value of cotton cloths exported last year was $32,500,000 of which a little over $500,000 went to Europe; $16,750,000 to China and $5,000,000 to other Asiatic countries. The merchants and manufacturers' association and the chamber of commerce of Santa Ana have appointed committees to solicit funds with which to purchase two acres of ground on Washington avenue next to the Southern Pacific railroad. The land will be held and deeds will be given any manufacturing enterprise that will take advantage of the opportunity for establishing a plant in that town. Forty-two injured Greeks, victims of a smash-up of a construction train at Leith, Nevada, on the Salt Lake road on Friday were brought to Los Angeles by special train. Twenty-seven were taken to the California hospital suffering from broken arms and legs. One had a fractured skull. Two suffered amputation of legs. Two will probably die. Three dead are still at the scene of the wreck. Fifteen who were slightly injured were taken to the Hotel Avon. Most of the men have families in the old country. Douglas Tilden, a sculptor, has finished a statue of the late Stephen Mallory White, ordered for the city of Los Angeles, and a committee consisting of ex-Mayor Snyder, Joseph Scott, J. Hunt and two others viewed the work in Tilden's studio in Oakland. The height of the statue is a little over eight feet, and the pedestal sixteen feet. The stonework is designed in granite and treated in a simple, classic style, resting on a base having a flight of eight steps all around. The inscription in front is: "To Senator Stephen Mallory White."

A congestion of all classes of freight, worse than that of a few months ago, is threatened in San Francisco and the Southern Pacific officials are at a loss how to combat the blockade. The operating department has brought the matter to the attention of J. C. Stubbs. He says he believes that the only way out of the difficulty will be to increase the demurrage charge. Freight is being sent to San Francisco from all parts of the country and in order not to have too great a congestion trains are being held up on the different systems so as to allow the unloading of the cars already in the city. On January 1, 703 cars destined for San Francisco were held on the coast and western divisions and one month later 1975 loads were held back and these figures show an increase of 1272 cars in thirty days or an average of about forty cars a day in excess of what was being handled in San Francisco.

FOR GAZETTE: Both houses have read and submitted to the people Wright-Held constitutional amendment which reads as follows: Section 2½. The legislature shall be power to enact laws relative to convention of delegates to convention of political parties; and the legislature shall enact laws providing the direct nomination of cannies for public office, by electors, local parties, or organizations of people without conventions, at the time to be known as and designed primary elections; also to define the tests and conditions which electors, political parorganizations of electors may vote in any such primary nomination. It shall also be lawful for legislature to prescribe that such primary election shall be story and obligatory. The legislature also have the power to publish the rates of compensator primary election officers at such primary elections in city, or city and county, or or other subdivision of a estated population, without making compensation uniform, and in purpose such law may design population of any city, city county, county or political subject. Provided, however, that the legislature shall enact a primary election law under provisions of this section, the primary election law shall from corporate control if the people care to be free. If not, then they should have their ears pierced in token of thralldam to the Southern Pacific forever. This is Assembly Bill 794. Don't forget the number, and don't forget to write at once to your senator to push it through. Another companion measure, Assembly Bill 934, provides for the declaration of party affiliations at the time of registering, which may be changed after registration has closed by affidavit showing good faith. The purpose of this is to keep the voters of the several parties on their own side of the party fence. Write to your senator to vote for this, too. The "organization" is dead against it. The enactment of these two measures into law will enable the people to select their own legislators next time, to select their own United States senator, their members of congress and such city officers as they may have to elect. The law is not made obligatory, but it is believed that an enlightened public sentiment will lead counties to turn their backs upon the old system of nominating candidates by barter instead of by intelligent choice. Time is short. If the reader of this wants free government it will cost him but two cents in money and five minutes in time to tell his senator to stand for it and stand hard.—A. J. Pillsbury.

Provided, however, that the legislature shall enact a primary election law under provisions of this section, the primary election law shall be in force and effect." The legislature "power to laws relative to the election of presidents to conventions of political affairs" and the "legislature shall laws providing for the direct election of candidates for public office without conventions." This clash between the two methods is threshed out before the prior to the next election. It has been suspected that a "bug" was found in this amendment, but no reason that, so far as the concern is concerned, there is no desire for any direct primary voter. If the amendment stands as a judicial construction it serves a useful purpose as an aid to windward in the event of present constitutional problems prove inadequate. Good men as we have are of opinion that the constitution as well is sufficient for all purposes. Mr. John W. Stetson, a true friend of popular government, and a measure as a companion present primary law whereby, and ballot box shall be main-tail all polling places where present primary law has been used for the reception of "candidate tickets in addition to the ones" tickets already provided by the voter will mark one ballot in the selection of delegates to elections, and deposit that in one and a second ballot giving his vote of candidates for office for support, in convention, he will instruct his delegates to cast as many as 25 per cent of all vote cast, the same being Wharves at Newport The following communications, which will be found to be self-explanatory, have been received from the Corps of Engineers, U.

County Brevities Nine hoboes had a remarkable experience in a freight wreck between Yorba and Gypsum the other day, on the Riverside branch of the Santa Fe, and all came out alive and practically uninjured. They were riding in a box car. A brake beam broke and it left the track. Six cars behind it rode. County Brevities Nine hoboes had a remarkable experience in a freight wreck between Yorba and Gypsum the other day, on the Riverside branch of the Santa Fe, and all came out alive and practically uninjured. They were riding in a box car. A brake beam broke and it left the track. Six cars behind it rode safely on, but the seventh caught on an obstruction and was piled up on top of the first, crushing it into kindling. The men were literally buried in wreckage, but one by one they crawled and soon were toasting their feet at a fire. The last car was filled with merchandise principally fine dry goods, silks, satins and velvets, and $1000 worth of this was stolen before the railroad men found time to protect it. Mexicans who live and work in the vicinity flocked to the scene and took everything they could carry away. D. J. Bastanchury, E. R. Amerige and W. R. Collins, appraisers of the estate of the late Joseph Toussau, have appraised the same at $13,859. This is the estate over which there has been litigation in the superior court. Mrs. Rose Toussau, mother of deceased, contested the will, which left the property to the widow, Mrs. Constance Toussau. The matter was settled out of court. John Lapique, a refugee attorney from San Francisco, then tried to have himself appointed as attorney for Mrs. Toussau and when he failed in his attempt he began proceedings to have certain attorneys interested in the case disbarred from practice, but he made a poor showing before Judge West. Lapique left promising to return but up to the hour of going to press had not appeared upon the horizon.
