THROUGH an inadvertence We
failed to note receipt of that
superb number OF the San Fran
cisco Examiner which was Issued
when the business Office Of that
Journal was removed to the Phelan
block. AS q single achievement
of the press OF the Golden Gate it
has never been surpassed. The
Examiner, which was always a
sound and reliable exponent OF
Democracy, has of late become an
admirable newspaper, instinct
with enterprise and fully prepared
to wage o successful battle with
any daily on the coast. AS a
newspaper, as well as an organ OF
q great party, it has attained o
splendid status. We are pleased
to learn that it has made remarka.
BILE advances in its subscription
list ami its business prosperity.
While the HERALD often differs
with its mammoth metropolitan
contemporary in minor matters, in
the essentials OF the party faith we
are heartily in accord with it. We
wish it the fullest measure OF sue
cess attainable for a great Demo-
cratic daily.

We heartily trust that the an
nounceme that the next Demo.
cratic State Convention Is to be
held on the Goth Of June is mis-
take of the telegraph. The date is
simply preposterously early, espe-
cially when the fact is borne in
mind that the elections this year
will be in November, instead of
September, as heretofore. Demo-
cratic usage has leaned to calling
State Conventions some time in
July, even when the election came
off in September. If the State
Central Committee has indeed de-
clded upon such an early date, we
look upon its course as highly inju-
dicious. The gravity of the elec-
ton this year cannot be exagger-
ated. In the first place, We have
to elect Governor and all the
other State officers. In the second
place, two Justices OF the supreme
Court are to be elected. Thirdly
and lastly, county officers have to
be chosen all over California. All
these circumstances invest the
coming election with peculiar
significance and importance. AS
to Governor and State officers, the
masses are not yet prepared to ex-
press their preferences, and we
doubt if they can get into condi-
ton to do so by the Goth of June;
or. rather, by the middle OF May,
which is what such q call means.
The time honored Democratic
usage Of primaries will have to be
gone through With, to elect dele
gates to the State Convention, so
that the buzz of politics would be-
gin over the State fully Six
months before the election. We
fail to find a single Democrat here
abouts who sympatbizes with euch
q premature prog anime, nor do We
know q Democrat who under
stands 1t. We had hardly gotten
over our surprise at the precipi-
fancy of the Republicans in calling
their State Convention in July be-
fore we were treated to this re.
mark able departure in Democratic
management. What does it mean?
What good can it do? AS DEM
ocratic journal having the good Of
the party at heart the HERALD en-
ters its protest sgaint such an
early assembling of the State Con.
vention, 1t ought to be postponed.

OUR sprightly and able Rep

OUR sprightly and able Repub-
lican contemporary, the San Fran
cisco Post, has discovered great
Democratic game to foment and
keep up dissensions in the Repub-
lican party, and it warns its fellow
partizans to frown down the base
intrigue. Really the frozen cheek
of this ingenious pronunciamiento
discounts any Arctic breezes
which ever blew either from
Alaska, the Lena river, in frozen
Siberia, or from Adelia.land, al
the Antarctic antipodes of those
frigid regions. Most Democrats
remember the conflict at the Ma.
tional Republican Convention at
Chicago, the election of Garfield
by the skin of his teeth and the
grace of John Kelly, the insolent
antagonism of the President by
Conkling, aud the startling and
almost harlequin suddenness OF
Guiteau's appearance on the scene,
on that memorable second of July.
Many Democrats as well as many
Republicans have ascribed the Re-
publican dissensions to these
causes, and the HERALD has been
amongst the number. But it ap-
pears that we were all wrong, and
that the present Republican un
pleasantness are referable to the
wicked Democrats. Really, while
we are ashamed of our obtuseness,
we confess that we cam. see it in
that light,

Protection for American Wine
Growers.
IGlobe-Demoerat.


"Of late years an impure imita-
tion Of American champagnes has
been thrust upon the market, the
wine being made by the quick
process of forcing gas into each
bottle. OF course these bogus
wines can be sold for song in
comparison with the prices de-
manded by the pure wines. Now,
we makers of pure wines demand
that we and the consumers shall he
protected from these impure wines.
At least ten times more of the inn
pure than the pure American
champagnes are now put upon the
Market
"What kind of protection do you
desire ?n asked the correspondent.
IAN act of Congress-" replied the
wine maker, "that will require a
stamp tax to be placed on each
bottle of impure American cham
pagne. The makers of impure
wines are notorious in New York
and all the large cities. If any
question be raised as to the impur-
ity of the wine TO be stamped as
such, the fact can quickly be de-
termined by official analysis.
France, the great wiue country of
the world, protects her people from
impure wines. Recently, st the
National Laboratory III Paris, cut
of 455 wines analyzed only IA of
them were found to be pure.n

"Chemists SO declare. In charg-
ing the bogus wine it is often inn
pregnated with both lead and cop
per, alike disorganizing the wine
and the consum er's stomach. Alum
and other unwholesome substances
are also used in the manufacture of
these cheap wines.n

WE are treated to u great deal of
graduation from our Republican
contemporaries anent the fact that
Sacramento and Oakland had gone
Republican. This is the old story
OF the Dutch taking Holland. The
two distinctive strongholds of the
Republican party in California
have been Sacramento and Oak
land, and both have been carried
by greatly reduced majorities. 1t
is true that, some time ago,
the ephemeral Workingmen's
movement DETECTED Alameda
county for a little while,
from its true bearings, but
that is already an old story, and is
. closed up phase Of politics. AS
to Sacramento county good, old
fashioned Republican majority
used to be somewhere In the neigh.
Dorhood of three thousand. 1t has
sunk to but the ghost of its former
self, with even q Democrat, here
and there, getting through. The
same sort of Republican victories
as those chronicled of Sacramento
and Alameda counties throughout
the State at large, means Demo-
cratic triumph this Fall, by from
ten to fifteen thousand majority.
Even the League Of Freedom would
not be needed to emphasize the
sweeping charac er of the change,
although that organization will
tell heavily in the next election,
and almost exclusively in the in
terest OF the Democracy.

The track will be complete and
trains running to Crittenden by

to reach Calabasas, as some heavy
grades and cuts have been encoun-
tered. 1t is estimated that two
miles of the road will cost $3.50, ,00G
for grading. This is below San.

65-foot cut through solid rock will
have to be made. There are 200C
men and 1000 teams now at work,
and there is great demand for
more men. Grain is five cents PER
