OUR FRUITS AND THE TARiff Senator Perkins Addresses Growers, Pointing Out Growing Importance of Relations With Cuba—Reciprocity The presence in Los Angeles on Saturday of California's senators, Frank P. Flint and George C. Perkins, afforded opportunity for the executive committee of the Citrus growers' association of Southern California to consult with them on the citrus tariff question. Senator Perkins arrived in Los Angeles and was joined at a leading hotel by Senator Flint and members of the committee. For an hour or so they discussed ways of defeating democratic efforts toward the lowering of the tariff on citrus fruits. Senator Perkins explained the working of the republican tariff acts and reciprocity with Cuba as affecting the citrus fruit industry of the United States, showing that there had been a steady decrease in the imports of oranges from the British West Indies since the Cuban reciprocity treaty and an increase in imports from Cuba in that time, though not in the same proportion. Senator Perkins said in part: "Reciprocity with Cuba went into effect December 27, 1903. By the terms of the treaty it is to continue in force five years from the date of its going into effect and shall continue thereafter from year to year until one year from the date when either party to the treaty give notice of its abrogation. "The exports from the United States to Cuba for the year 1903 before the reciprocity treaty went into effect, greater injury to California, dozen treaties such as the ones with Cuba. "California is largely in the tariff question, there be articles produced from our or manufactories, on which age ad valorem value duty is per cent. There are also list 258 articles; these in many cases have subdivisions which increase this number." "The Wilson-Gorman tariff in 1893. Six democratic tives in congress voted for three republicans against the five democratic representatives voted against the Dingley and the four republicans for sage, with a tariff duty horses and other live stock from Mexico, wool, hides, monds, olives, olive oil, rains currants, wine, etc. "When the Cuban reciprocity was pending in the senate copy of the treaty to the then in session in California my views relative to the stated that if it were the people of California I should the treaty and policy of the administration. I should their wishes as I did in the Paris treaty with Spain to the Philippine islands. lature took no joint action ter, leaving it to the individual of your representativegress." Senator Perkins said in part: "Reciprocity with Cuba went into effect December 27, 1903. By the terms of the treaty it is to continue in force five years from the date of its going into effect and shall continue thereafter from year to year until one year from the date when either party to the treaty give notice of its abrogation. "The exports from the United States to Cuba for the year 1903 before the reciprocity treaty went into effect, were $21,761,638; for the year 1904, $27,377,465; 1905, $38,380,601; 1906, $47,-763,688; 1907, $48,305,274—an increase of nearly twenty-eight millions in dollars in our trade with Cuba in four years. "In 1903 I said, 'Our olive oil, raisins, canned and preserved fruits, onions, beans and peas, canned salmon, preserved, canned, pickled and salted vegetables, wines and salt come into direct opposition with the same class of goods imported into Cuba from France, Germany, Spain and other countries.' By the above figures it will be seen that our improved trade relations with Cuba have greatly insured to the benefit of California in providing a market for the above products. "Under section 4 of the Dingley tariff law the president of the United States, by and with the advice and consent of the senate, can enter into commercial treaty or treaties with any other country or countries concerning the admission into any such country or countries of goods, wares, etc., providing for the reduction of the duties imposed by this act, etc., etc. "A treaty with the British West Indies was negotiated by Commissioner Kasson, appointed under this section, which proposed to reduce the tariff on oranges and citrus fruits coming from that country 50 per cent. This would have been ratified by the senate but for the efforts of your delegation in congress and by a special committee sent by your Citrus association in California.

When the Flint forces caucused, as stated in the article, and found they had enough to elect their man, I did as Senator Anderson did, voted with the Flint men, as there was no other candidate except democrats to vote for, the others being withdrawn. This is a matter of state record. You can positively state that I never violated any instructions as inferred, as none were given me by the convention that I received my nomination from. Secondly, if I had been instructed to vote for Bard by the convention there would have been no violation of instructions because I actually did vote for Bard as long as I could. If you remember, there was a resolution introduced at the Orange county convention, instructing the member of the assembly from Orange county to vote for Bard for senator, but the same failed of passage, thereby leaving me free to do as I wished.

It now finds entry into nearly all the republican households in the northern and central portions of the county, as well as into hundreds of democratic, but it is not so much to the latter as to the former we desire to address ourselves. Every democratic subscriber will be welcomed and given a square deal. To republicans we say: Your party is upon the point of being wrecked by the Southern Pacific political machine. THE GAZETTE is at once the most fearless and outspoken newspaper in the county, as it publishes more of the stirring events of the political world than any other county paper. Its political articles are more extensively quoted than are those of any other county paper, sometimes properly credited, sometimes not. THE GAZETTE will continue in its battle to free Orange county from the domination of the railroad bureau. Probably not to exceed twenty republicans in the county stand for the action of the central more extensively quoted than are those of any other county paper, sometimes properly credited, sometimes not. The Gazette will continue in its battle to free Orange county from the domination of the railroad bureau. Probably not to exceed twenty republicans in the county stand for the action of the central committee in appointing delegates to state and congressional conventions. Against these railroaders and machine sympathizers stand 2500 resolute republicans determined that this infamous act shall never be repeated. It is the desire of this paper that every republican be kept informed of the atrocious political conditions in this county, as well as elsewhere in the state. This journal will impartially record the political doings here as elsewhere from the present time to the election day in November, and will unsparingly criticise the railroad push which has brought this intolerable state of affairs about. We cordially invite the support of all good republicans throughout the county. Send 50 cents in P.O. money order and we shall be pleased to forward The Gazette to your address during the campaign.
