POSSIBLY IN ERROR.

A London dispatch says the Board CT Trade
of that city has been assured by the Foreign
Office that British trade receives the benefit
of the most favored nation clause and re-
ceives equal benefit with the United States
under the latter's reciprocity treaty with
the Spanish Antilles. 1t is quite possible
that the London Board of Trade will dis
cover that it is in error in the assumption
that the United States has made treaties
of reciprocity that Great Britain shares the
benefits Of. In strict sense these so-called
reciprocity treaties are not treaties. They
are an agreement to give something for
an equivalent. The nation with which we
make such an agreement admits certain OF
our products free of duty. or at reduced
rates of duty, on condition that the United
States admits certain of their products free
of duty. Manilestly a nation cannot claim
The concession without giving the equiya-
lent. Coffee is one of the articles which the
United States receives free Of duty. But
Great Britain imposes an import tax on
coffee. How can Great Britain claim the
benefit of the concessions under the
most favored nation clause unless she
admits coffee free as the United States
does. Of course Great Britain is at

WHO Is DECEIVED?

Those persons who have watched the
course of the Examiner since it came under
its present management must realize that
the paper has labOred' steadily to advance
the interests of a class of specializing p0liti-
clans and schemers. AT first it worked for
Buckley and his henchmen. Failing IN
placing these men i'll Office again it formed
a compact with few persons who have to
certain extent debauched the Republican
party in San Francisco. We are unable to
cal to mind single instance when the
Examiner has worked honestly for the inter
est Of the people. 1t has been steadily in
favor of any and every policy or scheme
which would increase taxation and give
power to a class of men who have been
plundering the city. This seems TO be ad-
mitted except by a few men who are profit
ing from swindles and by few persons
who, it seems, are easily deceived.
Below we give extracts from interior
newspapers relative to the increase of our
taxes.
The Red Bluff Sentinel has the following:
Some time ago the San Francisco Examiner
printed an article Of TWO or three columns In
length giving figures, in regard 10 the value OF
property upon which taxes were paid by quite
number of large firms in that city, showing that
there was lack oil duly on the part OF Tue AS
SCISSORS and perjury, eIhaps, on The part OF prop
erty-owneTs. The Examiner seemed very anxious
that something should be done TO correct the evil
But now the scales have bObbed up on the other
side by the State Board OF Equalization raising
the assessment OF San Francisco some S9S,0o0,-
600, and the Examiner is believing like young
bull In a canebrake, aud crying out that san
Francisco is being cinched by the State al large.
The EUommer should stay on one side Of the
fence or the other.
The Santa Cruz Sentinel says:
The San Francisco Examiner, Report and
Chronicle should be happy. They have long de.
manded more Improvement and greater taxation
IN The metropolis The state Board has sent
them up sos. 600 900. a raise OF thirty per cent

liberty to enter into reciprocity treaties
on her own account She may agree with
Cuba or Brazil to admit their cOffees free if
these countries will make compensating
concessions. The United States has no
monopoly of the reciprocity business, but
it is not opening its markets TO sugar,
coffee, tea and hides free of duty for the bene-
fit of Great Britain. The London Board OF
Trade will discover the true inwardness OF
racinrnnitv in tima

EDITORIAL NOTES.

Whatever conclusion may be reached by the
Irrigation Congress at Salt Lake City, Congress
sional or legislative action will undoubtedly be
found necessary 10 carry out its suggestions.
When the convention project was first discussed
the idea was to support bill before the last
Congress TO transfer practically In bulk to the
States interested all the public lands embraced
within the semi-aTid anu arid regions OF the
West. Recent discussions evidently had some
Influence on the active promoters of the 1rriga-
lion Congress, for the call advocates no settled
plan but the development OF the best interests
of the West. Colonel Hinton mauifestly voiced
the objections of the Agricultural Department TO
the proposed wholesale transference OF the pub.
lie lands In the declaration that such a plan
would entirely surrender the control OF the main
Interstate streams TO three States-Co0rad0,
wyoming and Montana. Then there was the
imprObability of the States aud Territories being
able TO properly administer and continue the
public surveys over their shares OF the ,ooO,-
900 or more acres OF land that would be divided
among them, to say nothing OF the dangers OF
legislative corruption.
The friction between Norway and Sweden is
assuming a graver aspect. Norway demands
the right Of having an independent Department
Of Foreign Affairs, and insists upon having 1t
with or without the consent of Sweden" Then
the Norwegian Cabinet and the StOIthing OBJ
stinateIy decline to vote the military supplies
demanded by King Oscar and the swedish Min
istry for the defense OF the twin monarchy.
Sweden, however. manirests no disposition 10
make the concessions demanded by Norway, a
prominent official being quoted as having pub
licly declared at Stockholm that "Swedish sol
dlers would quickly teach the gentlemen at
Chrstiania how to talk Swedish
1t Is estimated by the Fort Worth Gazette that
the demands OF the cott0n-pickers, II conceded
by the planters, Will add $50, 100000 to the cost
OF picking the crop. The movement conse-
duently has a very important bearing on the cot
ton interests OF The South.

COYOTE SCALP SWINDLE.
THE PRECIOUS PELTS BEING I'M
PORTED FROM ARIZONA.
Los Angeles County Will Have to Pay
$1,000 by Ootober-Some Counties
May be Bankrupted by the Claims.
The San Francisco Examiner of Sun

The San Francisco Examiner of Sun
day contains the following dispatch:
POMONA, July A party OF detec-
tives has been at work in Pomona val
ley for about ten days in search of
clews leading to the arrest of men who
are suspected of an attempt to swindle
Los Angeles county out of several thou
sand dollars as bounties paid for coyote
scalps under the operation of the law
made by the last legislature.
The law says that a bounty of IS shall
be paid for each coyote scalp, and shall
be paid out of the treasury of the county.
Scores of hunters and ranchmen in
this region have gone into the coyote
scalp business on wholesale scale.
1t is well-known fact that some men
have secretly gone to the mountainous
regions of Arizona, where whole packs
OF coyotes are to be had, and where
scalps can be gathered by the score
every day and sent to confederates in
this section, who may palm the scalps
off as those obtained in these counties,
and thereby obtain the bounty.
Several suspicious-looking and foul
smelling packages, thought to contain
green animal skins, have recently been
received at the railroad stations in this
! section, from Arizona. The detectives
are watching the matter.
Senator McComas, who warmly sup
ported the coyote-scalp bill in the last
legislature, says it is worse than a fail
ure, and unless something is done to
check the plans of the wholesale coyote
scalp hunters, California will have paid
tens of thousands of dollars for coyote
scalps from Arizona, New Mexico, Texas
and Nevada before the next legislature
assemblies in 1898. He is seriously
afraid that some county treasures may
be bankrupted in less than year.
Judging from the way coyote scalps are
being sent to the Los Angeles county
clerk from all parts of the county, he
says sum of over $1,000 will have gone
for scalps alone before October.
One man has already got $685. for
scalps. Two men at San Dimas expect
to raise mortgage of $4,000 on their
ranch by September, getting scalps dur
| ing the next two months.
The detectives have found two boxes
of coyote scalps shipped to this coun ty
from Phoenix, A. T., containing $50
scalps, but no one has dared to call for
the boxes, fearing arrest.
