Several weeks ago the GAZETTE
mentioned the very reasonable protest OF
the electricians OF the Unitsd States, as
voiced by the Electric World, against that
provision Of the Mckinley Fat-Frysrs'
Compensation bill, which oontemplates
taking mica out Of the fres list and i'm.
posing upon it q duty OF 81 per cent al
yalorem. Tho electricians complain that
the egregious unlairnass Of this tax Is
that it practically lays heavy fine upon
them for discovering and utilizing raw
matsrisl Tor which there had previously
been but limited demand. Ihey have
created a large md growing market for
mica, and now It is proposed to punish
them for doing this. II the
bill passed they would have to pay Che
fnt, since they must have imported
mica, 81 there is very little produced al
home which they can uss to advantage.
Naturally Tie moat reasonable explsna.
alton Of this attempt to cripple great
industry is the same which applies to the
like determination of the Mckinley men
to embRrrass the fruit and vegetable eau
ming trRde-that some speoulators in
domestic rnics fried out FIAT" and are
now demanding their pound of a,sh.
but this il not all. Since the Mcltiulsy
bill has bssn printed electricians ars
finding out that they are to be squeezed
on other raw material, which to them
means higher prices and restricted sales
for all the maputa tines into which such
materials enter. The Electric World
sums mp the situation by saying that the
protection" offered American ele,
triciaus by Mckinley ''ls such as ont
would expect from On amiabls snd
ayaricious brigand."

Chr0aicls'S special from Los Angeles giv5s
interviews with q number of prominent
citizens on the alleged filibustoring
scheme which was exposed Yesterday
O. A. Deloy, a resident OF EDsenRda,
stated: The expose will create Intense
excitement on the peninsula, ana in my
opinion will result in President Disz de.
manding an explanation from the state
department and probably demand from
the Mexican government that the CON
spirators be punished.
Mr.. Daloy also said that the exposure
Will result in serious damage to the in
interests OF Americans ON the pepinsula,
but that the worst sufferers will be the
English stockholders in the Mexican
Land and Colonization Company and he
thinks that tho large grant which the
company now holds from the Mexican
government will be declared forfeited
and the sompany's property at Enseuada,

that as soon as the news reaches Ensenada
the company's officers there will be
arrested.

The legislature OF Massachusetts has
declared the English sparrow au outlaw

commonwealth tho duty OF exterminat-
ing him BY any AID every means except
that OF poisoning; the use of poison
being forbidden beeanae of the danger
that something beneficial or valuable
may be eXtermiaated instead of the spar
row. Twenty years ago the inhabitants
OF Boston Were chuck!ing over their good
Fortune in introducing these birds into
their city. In 1865 sbont 20 Imported
aparrows were liberated, amid popular en-
thuaiasm, on Boston Common, followed
by more the next year, when 90 others
were also introduced intn OharlesEown.
In those days the now oetraciaod spar.
row was carefully watched, protected
and, during the winter season, sys-
tematicslly led. So far did the craze 20
that, ia small towns, people ciuobsd

The Legislature Of 1886, however, ex-
cepted hawks, owls, crows and English
sparrow RON among the birds whose
eggs and nests srs protected by Law. It may

candidate for County Trustee and Tax
Collector and / now withdraw from
the race, and am no longer candi-
date. There are, or have been,
some eight or nine candidates for the
same position, with but one Republi-

cratic strength of the county into
seven or eight parts, insures the cleo

and being native born and lifelong
Democrat, I am unwilling to let my
present aspirations work a defeat to
the party, hence 1 quit the race. To
my friends who have promised me
their support I hereby tender my
most hearty thanks, and their offers
of friendship will be held in grateful
remembrance by me.
