In the State Board of Trade on Tuesday
Vice-President Mills declared that Cali
fornia is i'll advertised abroad, more
poorly, indeed, than any other State and
that it suffers in consequence. Of this
there is no doubt whatever. The trouble
is that with all our industry in distribut-
ing the literature of our climate and pro-
duction, we have failed in the little details.
We assume that the Eastern man under
stands our geographical distinctions, our
technical references to climatic periods,
or our statements concerning seasons.
Thus, Mr.. Mills told of one inquiring
correspondent who could not understand
from immigration literature how it is
that we have plentiful rainfall and yet
dry grapes in the open air. Consequently
the recital in the pamphlet excited his un-
belief as to all of it's statements. The
need of the State in the matter of adver-
tising its claims abroad is that it shall be
done intelligently and with such explicit
detail that the reader of immigration
literature cannot draw any false infer
ences. The matter of distribution of such
reading matter as we prepare is simply
one of good business judgment. Prob
ably the very best means of reaching the
people at the East, SO as to attract their
thoughtful attention to the agency of
printed matter, is to use the press of the
East. 1t may be the more costly plan,
but is the most direct California on
Wheels, however, has been of infinitely
greater value to the State as an advertis-
ing medium than any scheme short of
permanent exhibitions yet advised. For
tify well superintended exhibitions of our
products at the East with lucid, well au-
thenticated reading matter, without ex-
aggeration and SO specific in detail that
no one can misapprehend it, and we will
have adopted the best possible system.
The proposition to have the northern and
central sections maintain exhibitions of
products at several points in the East,
notably in Western States, is now before
the State Board, and ought to be adopted.
If fagreed to, the means for maintenance
should not be difficult to secure.

A WESTERN CONFERENCE.

The conference to be held at Kansas
City on the 18th of April will attract
much attention. 1t is to include men of all
political faiths and representatives of the
Farmers Alliance and all industrial and
commercial bodies. The call for the con-
ference was issued by the Legislature of
Kansas, and runs to all the States from
Texas to the Territories upon the upper
rivers. The purpose is to consider all
questions affecting the economics of the
West and the Southern States imme-
diately related thereto by commercial in
terests. About one-half of the States and
Territories invited have already chosen
delegates.
Such conference, if conducted above
the level Of partisan politics, must result
in much good. 1t will be beneficent if it
does no more than to bring representa-
tive men of the several sections together,
for by their association and the exchange
of views in the convention they must
come to better understanding of the needs
of the people, and more nearly approach
unanimity of sentiment upon topics of
vital concern to the West. The West has
suffered Of late severely, and the cause
for the disquiet will be discussed and the
proposed policies for its alienation de-
bated from commercial and industrial
standpoints.
Every consultation that is not domi-
mated by party politics and that is pro-
NOTED upon the high grounds of fair play,
community of interest and wise economy,
regardless of partisan gain or loss, must
result beneficially. Such councils will
exert powerful influence upon legisla-
ton, tending to check radicalism and pro-
mote conservative and non-partisan
action, and to lead the people to thought
ful consideration of the needs of the
country, without being subjected to the
sophistries of designing and ambitious
political leaders.

DEALING WITH WHITE CAPS.
In Indiana the difficulty in punishil

In Indiana the difficulty in Furnishing
White Caps is in the terrorism of their
organization over courts and juries.
Now, however, the Legislature is about
to provide by law that for all injuries
committed by this lawless element the
county within which the outrage takes
place shall be liable for the damages.
This, it is believed, will have the effect of
giving courage to innocent citizens, and
of cowing the guilty, who will be pun
ished by heavy taxation, and will not
dare to complain. 1t is the belief that the
White Caps represent some of the heavi-
est taxpayers, and that they will there
fore hesitate to infiict upon themselves
great.eosts.

FOREIGN COLONIES IN AMERICA.

In all the dispatches concerning the
New Orleans tragedy there is constant
reference to the italian Colony in this,
that or the other city, and demands for
the protection of these colonies. Of
course subjects of Italy in the United
States must be protected precisely as are
any other aliens. The laws are for all and
the alien receives from them precisely the
protection that our own citizens are ac-
corded. But the use of the word "colony'
in these references is obnoxious. Since
American citizens are included in the
designation, its use amounts to a con-
fession that they are citizens for conven-
fence only, and are not at heart Amer
leans. We understand that in the
ordinary use of the word, which is con-
ventional, there is intended no offense.
But at all times it ought to apply to aliens
only
If adopted citizens class themselves
with groups that appeal to foreign powers
in the hour of trial, they are untrue to
their assumed allegiance, and form part
of that dangerous class against which this
journal has repeatedly protested-the
Americans who hyphenate their citizen
ship. No American citizen can classify
himself in an organization that is foreign
by title and spirit, and be trusted to deal
fairly by the United States. There is
danger to republican institutions in the
spirit manifest in more than one quarter
to consider American citizenship mere
matter of convenience, with the reserva-
ton in mind of real loyalty to the fore
sworn countries of the old world. There
is more than danger in the manifestation
of this spirit-it is an absolute threat and
justifies the gravest apprehensions. If it
augments in the next ten years as it has
in the past decade the United States will
in self protection be driven to the adop-
ton of policy that will extend the pro-
bationary period essential to citizenship
to such term of years as will justify the
assumption that the applicant has been
thoroughly weaned away from his earlier
national love.
When large bodies of professed Ameri-
can citizens ignore their own Govern
ment and address the representatives of
foreign Governments, and petition them
to move in demand against the Gov
ernment of the petitioners, the honste
American citizen may well feel humilia-
ton and alarm. 1t should have been
sufficient in this New Orleans case
for these adopted citizens to have ap-
pealed to the American Government
1t had not shown any disposition to re-
fuse justice or to condone the lawlessness
at New Orleans. On the contrary, it was
moving with energy and resolution at
the very moment that appeals were being
flashed to Italy to demand of the United
States full and complete reparation, and
advising that such demands should be
accompanied by threats of violence. In
dignation at such wanton insults as these
is only restrained by the reflection that
such appeals are the outcome of unrea-
soning heat and inhamed blood and are
promoted by rattle-headed journalistic
leaders, who, unfortunately, are able to
pose as the exponents of public opinion,
but really represent nothing more than
alien intolerance, narrow-mindedness
and foreign jealousy.

With every advance of emigration into

Hostetters Stomach Bitters. Newly
peopled regions are frequently less salu-
brious than older settled localities, on ac-
connt of the miasma which rises from

the banks of rivers that are subject to

emigrant soon learns, when he does not
already know, that the Bitters afford the

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArcH.l
SCoTTDALE, Aug. 1.-Secretary Parker,
of the knights of Labor, has returned from
visit to Cokeville, where he has been to
adjust labor dispute. The Isabella Com
pany, of that place, notified its men of an
irts1ded reduction in their wages of per
cent OF the ton, and the employees notified
Che company that the reduction would not
be accepted. The men held mass meeting
last night, and decided to strike rather than
submit to the proposed reduction. Secre-
tary Parker was telegraphed for, and to-day
held a conference with the management.
The Superintendent of the works was firm
in his demand for a reduction, and a COM
promise was finally arrived at, it being de-
cided to make the reduction 21% per cent in
stead of per cent per ton. The men are
greatly dissatisfied with the result of the
conference. The men will probably strike
if the compromised reduction is made. Sew
eral hundred men may be thrown out of
work

Mr.. George Helman, school teacher liv-
ing at Manor station, Westmoreland coun-
tv, has been one of Pittsburg's daily visi-
tors the past three weeks: Cn approaching
him at the depot he said: Il have reasons
to be verv happy man, which you will un-
derstand more fully with a little eXplana-
tion. The 9th day of last March L was
deaf and uniting me for any kind of bust
fair trial he suggested that L had bet
ter come to Pittsburg and try electricity
in some good, reputable institu-
tion where 1 would have it administered in
a scientific manner Acting on his advice
and noticing that the Pittsburg papers spoke
very highly of the Electrical and Medical
Institute at ADD Penn avenue, 1 placed my
self under their treatment. You can see
the results. l can hear ordinary converse
tion now very distinctly and will take charge
of school again the 1st of September. The
Medical Director diagnosed my case as con-
gestion and thickening of the mucous mem
brane of the middle ear with closure of the
eustachian tubes, due to catarrh and para
lived condition of the auditory nerve from
subacute meningitis, due TO la grippe.
''It is simply astonishing the number of
patients they have treating who are afflicted
with the various chronic ailments, such as
rheumatism, neuralgia, paralysis, spinal and
hip diseases, nervous prostratiOn, etc., and
tell you they are all highly delighted with
the results. 1 understand they do not treat
consumption, claiming they cannot obtain
results to warrant it, which l think is very
honorable in them"

This lump grew rapidly, and toward the
