preSSions
In Representative Newspapers of In
terror California on Various
Topics of the Day.

Ing money freely 10 Lne canuerleS, anu
that the larger establishments are now
running, some OF them To their full ca
paclty. This makes a market for fruit
ana relieves the fears of the growers.
Ihe wheat ralsers are also getting accom-
mOuatlOns, and times do not look as blue
as they did.
Santa Rosa Republican: There has been
much said about san Francisco's lack Of
enterprise. 1t must be confessed, even
by croakers now, that the way the busi-
ness men there are hustling for the Mid
winter talr, very closely reSem bles en-
terprlse. And best OF ALL there is unity
all along the line.
Oakland Times: The grain and fruit
crops of California viii not be allowed to
decay in the field and orchard, for the
San francisco banks are lending out
money to farmers and fruit-growers
throughout the interior wherever 1t is
needed Tor harvesting. The
4lldwlnter Fair in San Francisco is un-
der lair way OF success, if personal bick er-
lngs and tactional disputes will only
cease. Harmony and union of efforts are
IN order.
Nacaville Reporter: The people in
every fruit section OF California have ex-
pressed their taith in the open auction
method OF selling fruit, ana we believe
that the commission men i'll Eastern
cities who expect to handle our fruit must
ADOPT TINS plan. Ii the commission men
would cease wrangling and spend the
time and energy thus wasted in devising
better methods Tor distributing our fruits
ana opening some OF the thousand avail
able markets where it is never seen they
will help to make fruit-growing more
profitable and add largely to their own
income
Winters Express, Yolo County: Since
the Supervisors Of this county have not
seen lit TO appoint any delegates TO repre-
sent us i'll the Good Roads Convention"
10 De held in Sacramento on september
1th, we suggest that the editors OF this
county, emulating the example set by
thelr brethren OF SonOma County, meet in
! the Office OF the Democrat at Woodland,
on Monday, August 7th, 10 take action in
| the premises, and thai all interested in
having good roads meet with them. The
Express Will take the responsibility and
call such meeting, for the date named,
and hopes there will be large attend
ance.
Placer Herald: The wealthy people of
San Francisco are not subscribing TO the
Mldwlntcr Fair fund as readily as they
| ought, but the poorer people and middle
classes are. and they are going to make it
a success. 1t comes as a boon to the State
these hard times, for ii pushed to the pro-
portions it should he it will bring to Cali
costs. The Press Association OF the state
has Endorsed the project and the interior
| counties, with hardly an exception, are
preparing to help NIL up the exhibit.
Placer, one OF tie best counties in the
state, must, when the time comes, have
an exhibit second to no other.
Los Angeles Tunes: Just as if the de-
pressed condition of the financial world
was not enough for us to contend with.
the country is to be visited with another
afllctlon. Governor AitgeId is to write
book explaining his anarchistic lean
lngS. 1t Is difficult to comprehend whv
he feels called upon to do this after the
exhaustive plea he has already given to
tne puDnc Some people never have an
idea that they are talking too much.
Woodland Democrat: The people are
beginning to be encouraged by new hope
and new inspiration. Let ali those who
were influenced by a senseless scare to
Withdraw their money from the channels
OF trade, turn their boarded treasures back
into the business ventures and industries
OF the country. That is the only way to
put an end TO stagnatlon and 10 start the
wheels of commerce again.
Oroville NeiC Era People of the comm
try are beginning to find out that the
tarlH Is not solely for the benefit of the
rich manufacturers as charged by the
Democrats. and that capital does not in-
vest IN enterprises purposely to lose
money, although many ventures often
turn out protitless. When operators Climb
together 1or high wages and less hours of
labor, higher prices must prevail, TO in
sure smaller saies, as the public generally
want everything cheap regardless of how
or where they are made.
Colusa Sun We hold that the man who
believes in the general dishonesty of
men IS, OF necessity, himself dishonest. |
we have been forced, in the last eight or |
ten years, into positions where we have
had to see much that was going on dur
Ing the Sltt1ngs OF the Legislature; and. |
without an exception, we have found the !
purity hoWlers, the fellows who claimed !
everybody dishonest but themselves the |
cheapest cattle in the market. When !
ever man gives expression to the senti- |
ment that dishonesty is the rule. we |
know that fellow to be thoroughly cor |
rupt. All he wants is a change. Not |
wlthstanding the fact that we have seen
so much-enough sometimes to make a |
mans hair stand Oh end-We hold To the
general honesty of men in high public
positions. If d man believes all these men
corrupt and he has a chance to make a
piece by a little crooked work, what
Is to hinder him from following the
illustrations he thinks he has before
him? They all do it," he will argue,
and why should l throw Off on myseif?''
What man would be afraid to approach
woman he had heard say, "All women
are impure?" If one wanted one of these
fellows who claim monopoly of the
honesty he need no more hesitate abont
buying him than he would about buying
a mule.
Los Angeles Express One of the argu-
ments advanced for the free COINAGE Of
silver is that it would add to the volume
OF money in circulation. But this is
faliacy. The immediate effect of the
measure would be to Danish gold from
circulation, thus creating a market con-
traction. 1t would be years before the
mlnts of THIS country could coin silver
dollars enough to take the place of the
gold now in circulation either as coin or
in the form of Treasury gold notes. As
soon as the mints were thrown omen to
the free coinage of silver gold would 90
TO a premium, and would become a COM
modify, the premium fuctuating from
day to day as in the war period, when
greenbacks were the only currency.
Santa Barbara Press: Good public roads
have an immense influence on the neigh
borhood, especially on the increase IN the
value of land.
