advantagesgto our agents and the
fact that this is an article that can

of agents ever dared to make such
offers, nor would we if we did not
know that we have agents now
making more than double the IA
mount we guaranteed; and but two

Decoration Day at ElIeIoy.

On May 3Oth. as previously ar
ranged the G. A. r. of Ellejoy sent
to different cemeteries
where soldiers had been buried and
had their graves strewn with flow
ers. Then assembling at Prospect
church formed a large procession
of ex-soldiers and citizens, and
marched to Logan's Chapel. Dis
mounted near the sulphur spring
a line was formed which marched
to the cemetery, Sons of Veterans
Bringing up the rear-follOwing in
the footsteps of their fathers.
AT the cemetery they halted; an
order from Department headquar-
tiers, was read, ranks were opened
and flowers distributed by beauti-
full young ladies of the
vacinity; then the march was re-
sumed through the cemetery, past
the resting place of old comrades,
each one casting a flower, a bunch
of flowers or wreath on the grave.
After the graves of the old SOL
diers were decorated the citizens
proceeded to strew flowers ON the
other graves in the cemetery.
Then came dinner. The crowd
was large provisions were ample.
II seemed that everyone WED with
every one else who could show the
greatest hospitality and the warm
est friendship. There was no poll
tics here. Republican Democrat,
Prohibitionist, and Alliance all
all came to show respect to those
who gave the best of their lives to
their country.
After dinner the assembly was
sounded by DIR. Perry, and the audi
ence was seated under the shade of
the stately oaks where stand and
seats had been prepared.
Hon. Henry r. Gibson was intro
duced who said he was happy to be
where we have a beautiful day and
q pleasant shade. He had brought
no basket of dinner to contribute tC
the feast but he had brought big
basket of talk. He said he propos
ed to show that we are 2 land of he
roes.
He showed from history thai

colonies would, in all probability
not have gained an independence
and this country would have beer

that but one baby had cried Will

FILING CERTIFICATES.

a con temporary thinks it would be we'll
to ask the Attorney General Of the State for
an opinion whether certif icates OF nomina-
tl0n Of Senators and Assemblymen should
be filed with the Secretary of the State or
with the County Clerk. The code says
section 1889;
Certificates Of nomination shall be fled
with the Secretary Of State for the nominal
ton Of candidates for the Offices to be filed
by the electors Of the entire State or for
members Of the Board Of Equalization.
State Board OF Railroad Commiss toner's or
House OF Representatives. Certificates Of
nomination shall be fled with the County
Clerk or Secretary Of the legislative body of
any incorporated city or town for the nomi-
nation Of any candidate for an office under
the government OF any city or town to be
filled by the electors Of such city or town.
For all other nominations to public Offices
certificates of nomination shall be filed with
the clerks Of the res pective counties wherein
the Offices are to be filled by the electors,
and where the district or political division
embraces more than one county such GER
tifcaie must be fled with the clerk of the
bounty in which the candidate resides, and
The name Of each such candidate as specified
Ia the certificate Of nomination shall be
certified to by such County Clerk to the
County Clerks of other counties within the
district or political division not less than 10
days before the day OF election"
II the Attorney-General Of the State
should find in this section authority for
filing certificates Of nomination with the
Secretary of State for Senators and Assem-
bymen his opinion would not carry much
weight. Section 1893 provides that mot
less than % days before An election 10 flI
any public Office the Secretary OF State shall
certify to the County Clerk of each county
within which any Of the electors may by
law vote for candidates for such Office the
name Of each person nominated for such
Office as specified in the certificate Of nomi-
nation fled with the Secretary Of State"
This provision applies to nominations for
Offices filed with the Secretary Of State, but
not TO nominations for Offices filed with the
several County Clerks. The Secretary Of
State clearly has the determination of the
question whether party is entitled by law
70 place on the official ballot, bat when
nominations are made by petition the pro-
visions of section 1889 must govern.

4 DEMOCRATIC TARIFF.

Since 1850 the United States has abs orbed,
in round rum bers, 100000 of the surplus
population of Europe. These immigrants
and their descendants are now working in
the United States al higher wages than their
kindred receive who remained at home.
The free-trade proposition Is TO admit the
product of the labor of Europeans who did
not emigrate in competition with the product
Of the labor of Americans by birth or adop-
ton. The protective tariff gives natives
and naturalized citizens a certain advantage
in our hons market. The foreign manufac-
turer has to pay the duties 10 land his goods
in our market. The American manufac-
turer has this margin TO go on. and the fact
that labor is higher in this country than in
Europe is proof that the laborer gets some
of It, Perhaps he does not get all that he
should, but If we admit that he does not his
condition would not be improved by putting
the product of his work on the European
level. The out-and-out free trader proposes
10 admit foreign products Of all kinds with
no other addition to the foreign cost than
the expense Of transportation. This would
furnish less protection to Eastern labor than
California labor has against Eastern labor.
On high-priced goods ii would not be appre-
clable. The freight on silks, satins. high
tiOiuSs NUulu UdEulh ducCL Ieldll
prices. On heavy goods. that is, goods that
are heavy in proportion to value. the cost of
transportation would be a measurable pro-
lection. The difference between free trade
aud a tariff for revenue only lies in the fact
that in one case the public revenue would
be derived in part from imports and in
the other from direct taxation. But the
imports upon which duties would be levied
under strictly tariff for revenue act would
be articles of import from which revenue
could be the most readily and cheapy col
lected. The three most important OF these
articles are tea, coffee and sugar. Other
articles that under the present law come in
free OF duty, amounting TO 30 per cent of
the whole, would under tariff for revenue
be subject TO duties. The Democratic plat
form declares even Incidental protection
unconstitutional. The only duties Con-
gress has power TO impose according TO the
Democratic political creed are duties for
revenue. Under this rule the aim Of Con-
gress would be 10 confne duties to articles
that we must necessarily import Proba-
bly, not less than $500. 000, coo would be OBJ
tanned from this source. The tax on
whisky If retained would produce another
S100.000000 There would remain only
SIo0,00Q000 or thereabOut to draw from the
vast volume of imported goods that are not
now On the free list. The rate Of duty
would be so low that the volume of impor-
tatiOns would inevitably increase. and the
greater the increase the lower he rate neces-
saTy to obtain the needed revenue. II does
not make much difference, therefore,
whether a Democratic administration adopts
a free trade or a tariff for revenue policy.
Under either policy the protection which
has enabled the United States to maintain
a higher standard Of wages than prevail
in any other country would disappear.

"To DEATHS DOOR"

A free-trade contemporary says that the
Republicans have no reason to complain if
workingmen refuse to listen when told tina.
they would be worse off under protective
tariff than at present The workingmen are
then hkened 10 a patient whom an ineOmpe-
tent physician has brought to deaths door.
1t must be admitted that the deaths door"
Of tile American wOrkingman is a COM
paraiiyely healthful condition. All Europe
ana all Asia want to share that condition.
We cannot enact laws tight enough to keep
emigrants from coming to Us across both
oceans. An exhaustive inquiry has shown
that the wages Of our deaths -door' pa
tient are Y per cent higher than the wages
in the country that holds the next rank In
the industrial world. Il Is singular that our
free-trade contemporaries do not perceive
the contrast between this condition which
they depict and the one which the masses
of the community plainly see TO exist.

THE RIGHT THING TO DO,

The Democrats of Humboldt County
have decided not to put a candidate in the
field in opposition to Assemblyman Bled-
see. They have rightly considered that Mr..
Bledsoe represents in an especial sense good
government, and only represents Repub-
lcanism In general sense. These Hum
ba-dt Democrats do not think it would be
we'll TO oppose man so distinctly identified
with good government, and in this they ara
clearly right. The example they have set
should be followed BY Republicans when
parallel case occurs. The CALL was pleased
to see that the Examiner commended the
action OF the Humboldt Democrats. The
EGGD,lner, however, in a spirit of thrift
called upon Republicans to emulate the dis
interes tedness of the HUM oldt Democrats
without furnishing parallel case. 1t sug-
gested that as the Democrats of Humboldt
had declined to nominate an opponent to
Bledsoe, the Republicans of the First Con-
gressonal district should decline to nomi-
nate an opponent to Representative Geary.
The suggestion partakes somewhat Of the
character of a proposition to swap an AS
semblyman for a Congressman. 1t is not
complete in this respect, for the reason that
the Republicans of Humboldt would elect
Biedsoe without assistance, while the
chances are about equal in the First District
between the Democratic and the Repub-
lican candidates. Representative Geary
had the advantage over his Republican COL
leagues In being on the majority side. In
committee he signed majority reports and
in the House he voted with the majority. In
this way he got deserved credi: for the pas
sage of the Chinese exclusion bill and for
securing appropriations for his Congress
sionai district. But as the next House prom
Uses to be Republican. a Republican repre-
sentative Of that district would have the
advantage Mr.. Geary has in the present Con-
gress. Mr.. Geary's efficiency in getting ap-
preparations will be admitted and bis good
work in securing anti-Chinese legislation
commended, but there Is nothing in Mr..
Geary's career SO far that would warrant
the Republicans of his district in abandon
ing the district TO him.

NEW SOUTH WALES PREMIER
Sir George II. Dibbs Discusses
Colonial Affairs.
The Rock Upon Which the Proposed Fedora
tiOn split-NOt Friendly to the
Worlds Fair

Sir George r. Dibbs, Premier of the Ans
tralian colony of New South Wales. ar
rived in the city yesterday and registered
at the Palace. A tall handsome English
man is Sir George. with white hair and
beard and kindly face. He is on his way
home from England and is ACCOMPANIED on
his trip by Lord Viliers, the young SON of
the Earl of 0nslow, Governor of New South
Wales. They sail tomorrow on the Mari
posa.
Among the first subjects to be preached
was the question OF Australian federation
and Sir George discussed it quite glibIy.
We made the attempt 10 bring about this
federation of the Australian colonies some
time ago" said he. but the effort was a
failure IN spite OF the fact that the move
seemed strong.
SIR HENRY PARREs' FAULT
ITO he candid, the fault lay with Sir Henry
Parkes, then Premier of New South
Wales. He was not honest in his pretended
advocacy OF the federation. Another thing
was that our colony of New South Wales
was q stumbling block on account OF her
lack of customs regulations. The other
colonies had protection ideas and protection
laws. OF course, as we believed i'm free
trade, such radical divergence of ideas
could lead only la split which prevented
a closer union. All this has now been hap
a settlement # our troubles"
'Wll You work to secure a line of steam
ers from this country to Australia 2" was
asked.
Il think not" with a decisive shake of
the head. You see we are growing a little
tired OF paying susidies. For years we
helped maintain a line Of steamers TO this
country, and found at last that we were
doing Ii all ourselves. You Americans
were getting the benefit Of il all, but your
Congress would not pay cent toward foot
ing the bills.
REACHING FOR EVERYTHING.
Your people have way Of reaching out
for everything in sight. and at the same
time Keeping what you have got. Your
shrewdness Is admirable, and Ike YOU for
il, but you cannot expect other people
always TO coincide with you ia your views +"
When the Chicago Fair was named Sir
George shrugged his shoulders and init
mated that he was not enthusiastic on the
subject
New South Wales will certainly be rep
resented he added, but not as she would
like 10 be. We were told at first that We
could have 100000 feet OF space, and then it
was cut down to 5000. We had already
appropriated ESQ coo, and the other colonies
would have done c0rrespondingly well. AS
it is. we are not inclined TO exert ourselves
TO any great extent"

in the midule ages. But wars are rare now
adays; losses of life from casualties such as
shipwrecks are infrequent; deaths from
epidemies are evenly divided between the
sexes. On the other hand the scarcity of
women among tue early settlers Of America
was due to the unwIllingness Of men TO sub
ject the females of their families to the hard
ships of the ocean voyage and TO the
dangers of Indian wars. 1t disappeared
when ocean navigation became COMPARE
lively safe and the colonists enjoyed peace.
