UNFORTUNATE INHARMoNY.

1t is most unfortunate that our Repre-
sentatives in Congress cannot agree to
work for California in harmony. 1t ap-
pears that Representatives Caminetti and
Geary have fallen afoul of one another,
and as result an antagonism has arisen
concerning harbor and navigable river
improvements in this State, that are so
greatly needed. The radical economists
in the House seize upon the affair as
means to alleged retrenchment, and as a
result the whole scheme of saving the
navigable streams from the flow of min
ing and to enable the mining industry to
be rehabilitated and to secure needed har-
Dor improvements is imperiled.
The Eastern people have saying that
whenever Californians have any matters
OF concern in national policy they can be
counted upon to fall out among them
selves; that whenever they have a Cali
fornian to present for consideration for
place representative of the State our peo-
PIE can De relied upon to divide or defeat
the prominence this State should have
by proving its capacity to grow men
as well as soil products. There is
altogether too much truth in the charges;
there is lacking among US that repose of
confidence in each other, that unity of
sentiment and effort for State advance
ment SO essential to success. How long
are we to be the unhappy victims of the
jealouses of ambition and the weakness
of suspicion? We cannot go before the
nation and secure anything, even the
smallest of just demands, unless we are
in unity and refrain from washing our
linen in public view.

to the wilds of Shasta to see if his mount

is likely to be a vacancy on ''the force''

ground of complaint:

70 SAY that in practice the policy of re-
ciprocity is mutually beneficial is but to
repeat the title of the policy. There
have been and are captious people, either
radically for protection or radically for
abolition of all limitations, who have
sought to make il appear that reciprocity
is but a cheat; that it works injury to
those nations we have most reason to en-
courage, notably the South American
States. 1t may be safely assumed that
no export trade will increase for any
length of time if it is antagonistic to the
material interests either of the buyers or
the sellers. Our export trade with the
chief South American State upon the At
lantic side has greatly enlarged since the
adoption of the reciprocal policy. Brazil
sold to US during less than the first half
year of the new policy nearly $40, ,OO0, 900
OF its products, as against S24, 100000 in

We may count u pom it that if this aug

American industries there would have

would have agitated the whole Nation.
But there has been no protest, and no
commercial complaint has been laid that
we as well as Brazil have not benefited
by the bargain.
