Many we'll informed cotton men estimate
the present crop of that staple at four and

The Subsidized Press.

The Erening Express suggests that
q great many branches OF business can
be carried on at Santa Monica cheaper
and more economically than in Los
Angeles. AS many citizens suggest,
why the Express does not move there?
If it were published in Chicago, its
patrons would soon compel it to follow
its affections. They would stand no
such treachery as practiced by that
journal to the men who put it on its
feet and since maintained it. Verify,
Los Angeles people can say, save us
from our friends. The Express has
received its reward, but the future
will take care of itself, when the
calm second thought shall fit across
the minds of our now humbugged
people. A subsidized press has prosti-
tuted its editorial columns for the sake
of advertisement. They have directed
our people to invest in wildcat lands,
where a farmer would starve to death
on one hundred and sixty acres, when
this press could easily have directed
them to thousands of places in the
Southern counties where ten or twen-
ty acres would handsomely support a
family. Now let us wait the sting.
We have done our duty, and feel that
the curses that are sure to follow, loud
and long, will not come home to our
rOOSt.

Lady County Superintendent.

One of the strongest evidences of a
disposition on the part of the public to
recognize the fitness of women for ed
ucational duties is found in the fact
that in number of counties the pop
ular candidate for Superintendent of
Schools is woman. That the day is
not distant when this office will be
filled entirely by women, we have not
the slightest doubt. The duties of
County Superintendent are almost ex-
clusively clerical ,and to discharge these
there are hundreds of women as we'll
qualified as men. AS candidates for
this office We now have Miss ELLEN
ENDEY in Inyo county, Mrs. WooD-
MAN in Butte, Miss ACHAIA ELKINs
in Marin, Mrs. CARRIE STANTON in
San Luis Obispo, Mrs. VIRGINIA F.
RUSSELL in Santa Barbara, Mrs. ID.
COLEMAN in Shasta, and Mrs. MARY
SANBoRN in San Diego county. Some
ofthese candidates are party nominees,
but the greater portion are asking
support independent of party, and this
is as ii should be. The position is, or
ought to be, non-politicaI, and should
be kept out of politics. What is need
ed in County School Superintendent
is zeal and competency, and where
these qualities are found com bined, it
Is not necessary to inquire whether

CHANGERS AND BRANDY.

The following correspondence be-
tween the Internal Revenue officer for
this State and the Wine Growers AS
sociation of Napa, So!ano and Sonoma
counties, is of interest to all who
make grapes:
SAN FRANCISCO, June 18th.
Mdj. j. r. Snyder:
DEAR SIR-The Hon. Commissioner
of Internal Revenue has referred to
me, for report theron, the question of
whether the addition of Il small guam
tity of burned grape syrup or some
similar substance is or is not a neces-
sity to complete the process of manu-
facture of grape brandy, and, if so,
whether or not, in my opinion, the
regulations should be SO modified as
to permit the distillerto thus complete
the process of manufacture at his still
prior to at1ixing the taX-paid stamp
thereon, and then be permitted to
place his brandy, thus completed by
coloring, on the market under the
original tax paid stamp, instead of
under the rectified spirits or wholesale
liquor dealers stamp, as is now the
case.
have received letters from many
large distillers, officers of societies,
(viniculturaD etc., all taking the one
ground. My own opinion is clear on
the question, but wish to substantiate
my views by statements in writing of
such men as yourself-as President of
the Sonoma Wine Society. Your COM
munication will be forwarded to the
Commissioner and Secretary of the
Treasury. l.. J. Lose of Los Angeles
is at Washington now trying to get
the adoption of such regulations by
the new Commissioners, backed by
strong letters from Senator Sargent
and others. Trusting you will see
proper at your earliest convenience to
address me letter, giving your views
on the question referred to and your
ideas as to the wishes therein of the
legitimate grape brandy producers of
your section of the State, have the
honor to be,
Yours, Respectfully,

the candidate is Democrat or Re-
publican--a man or woman. Los An
geles county has as yet no lady candi-
diate for Superintendent, and we take
the liberty of uggesting one. With
the lady we name we have no ac-
quaintance, nor do we know that she
will accept the position. We do, how
ever, know that she is an accomplish
ed lady who has spent six or seven
years as teacher in the public schools
of this city and county. She is zeal

and she is in every way qualified for
the prompt and efficient discharge of
the duties of County Superintendent.

Il. AZ. Foulke, Esq, Supervisor Of In
terndt ReUenue, etc.:
DEAR SIR: At meeting of this as
sociation called especially to consider
your communication under date of the
18th inst, addressed to Major Snyder,
structed by unanimous vote to inform
you that the society fully indorse the
view that the addition of a small guam
tity of burnt grape sugar is necessity
to complete the manufacture Of grape
brandy; that without such coloring
matter and sweetening the distillation
would not be brandy but grape spirits,
and unstable as brandy; and that such
coloring, etc, is a part Of the process
of manufacture, and should be fully
covered by the original tax-paid stamp.
While We deem it wholly unnecessary
to revert to the hardships and loss to
which other decision would subject
every manufacturer of grape brandy,
we think that simple justice emphati-
cally demands the decision stated in
your letter, and that it is unjust to
place brandy, which is not brandy un-
til so colOred, ETC., under the same
head as if it were adulterated and
mixed, as it might be under the recti-
fled spirit and wholesale liquor dealer
stamp. The State Grape Growers and
Wine and Brandy Manufacturers AS
ISOLATION will hold meeting in San
Francisco on the Sth proximo, and will
also take action in the matter, the re-
suit Of which will be communicated to
you.
With many thanks for the interest
manifested by you, and the kind and
gentlemanly tone of your letter, fully
appreciated by US, have the honor to
be yours, respectfully,

THE action of the County Committe,

THE action of the County Committee
in postponing the Democratic pri-
maries, heretofore called in accordance
with the Crawford county plan, and
asking for an expression from the
Democratic electors of this county, as
to the best manner in which the can
didates for county offices shall be
nominated, is in good time and in ac-
cordance with the wishes of the DEM
ocratic masses. The Crawford county
plan is never an expression of the peo-
pie and is never satisfactory except in
cases where a few individuals are
permitted to manage the whole busi-
ness, and only then when they chance
to get through with it without quar-
reling. Let us have q Democratic
county convention composed of dele
gates regularly elected by the DEM
ocratic voters of their respective dis.
tricts. Such a convention will reflect
the wishes of the Democratic ma
jority.
