StOneman On the Issues.
NEW York, April 14.-The World, con
tinuing its kilograms from various States,
has the following reply from Gov. Stone.
man of Sacramento, CAL:
"SIR: In reply to your inquiries of yes
terday, I have to say first, that I regard a
change of political administration at
Washington and the return thereby to
first principles as they existed previous to
the civil war, and the regulation and con-
troll OF the corporations and m~onopolies
as the paramount issues in the coming
political campaign. In my opinion the
tariff question to the people of this coast
is secondary to those considerations. The
| tariff question in time will be adjusted as
the demands and the necessities Of the
| people require. Secondly, / am not well
| enough informed as to the details Of the
| Morrison bill to give an opinion. Thirdly,
| the platform of the Ohio Democracy on
| the subject OF tariff, as far as l am in
formed, meets the views of the people OF
this State. (Signedl
GEORGE SToNEMAN."
