THEGROVELING OF WEALTH.

The Stockton Mail gives Senator Sharon a
merited scoring for his attempt to crawl away
from the tax assessor of San Francisco, on the
grounds that he is now resident Of Nevada.
Senator Sharon does not pay taxes in this
State, and yet claims to represent it at Wash
United States Senator worth millions would
feel that his position WAS too honorable a one
to run the chance of being sn,irched by any
action that would re fleet unbecomingly upon
a gentleman. The country is full of poor
men who have too much pride of character to
resort to petty methods to escape taxation.
and no man who respects himself Will employ
such questionable means of swindling the COY
eminent as the rich practice constantly. If
Sharon does not respect himself as a man, (and
he is certainly the one best qualified to make
the estmate) let him remember that he is q
United States Senator and should take pains
to make the office respected and respectable.
The avarice of the rich upon this coast Is some
thing which is beginning to make us contempt
IDLE in the eyes of the rest of the country.
Not many years ago there was good deal of
talk about the men on the 'fgolden shores of
the Pacific" who cared less for a 500 piece than
Eastera men did for short bits We were rep
resented as a race of enre rprising, wealthy
men who looked upon gold as dross; epen-
hearted, broad minded, lavish of everything,
with an open palm for charity and an open
door for hospitality A change has come over
our boosted generosity Of late years, and
now our big 6nanciers scrimp and save, dodge
their creditors, wrang'e over prices, cringe and
crawl at the feet Of the assessors and lick the
dust of debasement to save a few paltry dollars.
The spectacle Of all this sad wallowlng and
grovelng and perjury fills the masses with
disgust.
