OPPORTUNITY
Good Agricultural Land for $40
to $40 per Acre.

The Pacific Improvement Company has re-
Gently purchased twelve thousand .cres OF
land in the heart of Tehama County, for the
purpose of promoting subdivision and settle
ment. This land embraces lands from first
class Sacramento Valley agricultural land, to
land of fair average quality, and Is offered at
from so to $50 per acre, in subdivisions of
40, so, 12o, 160 and $50 acres.
The terms upon which these lands are offered
are especially attractive. They will be sold In
subdivisions, as above indicated, by the pay-
ment of interest only for three years, al which
time the purchaser can begin the payment OF
principal by paying the first OF five equal an
nual installments. Thus no part of the prin-
eipal is TO be paid for three years, and then
the purchaser is to have five years in which to
pay five equal annual installments, with in
terest at the rate of z per cent per annum,
making payments extending over q period Of
eight years. Intending purchasers are as
sured that this is an opportunity to purchase
land of fair average quality at $40 per acre,
and good agricultural land at $50 an acre,
with other grades of land at prices to CORE
spond between these figures.
The assertion is frequently made that good
lands, suitable for general farming and cs-
pecially adapted for fruitgrowing, cannot be
had in California for less than from $50 to
500 an acre. An examination OF the land
subject of this advertisement win prove TO
home-seekers that this is an opportunity for
the purchase of good agricultural land ut $50
an acre, and for qualities grading down to fair
agricultural land at $40 an acre, on terms OF
payment which should make the disposition
OF these lands to actual settlers result easy of
accomplishment.
! The primary object of the purchase of this
body of land was the breaking up of large
holding for the purpose of promoting its set
tlement in smaller quantities and its devotion
to diligent husbandry.

sponsibility for the act of 1878.
Now, what is the record of the de-
mocratic and republican parties on
silver since that time? Let us see.
When out of power the democratic
party has uniformly declared for the
free and unlimited coinage of silver.
Whenever they have had control of
the lower house of congress they
have always made great fuss about
silver that is, when the republicans
have been in control of the senate or
presidency, and when they knew full
we'll that free coinage bill could
not pass. But in the year 1891 their
hypocrisy was exposed to all the
friends of silver. In that year the
senate, which was republican, passe 1
a free coinage bill and sent it to the
house, which had democratic ma
jority of 139. Benjamin Harrison
was then president, and this demo-
cratic majority, fearing that he would
sign the bill if they passed it, were
forced into showing their true colors,
and they therefore defeated the
bill.
In 1892 the democratic national
platform declared in favor of the coin
age of silver upon equal terms wit
gold, and nearly every democratic
state platform of that year declared
in favor of free silver. Upon this
solemn pledge they carried the coun-
try and obtained SO majority in the
house, besides electing the president
and securing control of the senate.
Thus it will be seen that, after carry.
ing the country and securing control
of every branch of the national gov,
eminent upon distinct and solemn
pledges in behalf of silver, they were
in honor bound to redeem those
pledges and pass free coinage law.
The record of the late congress is toe
recent to require any detailed state
ment here. Suffice it to say that
the democratic party has proven it
self to be hypocrite and fraud u
pom the silver question. They have
lied to the people and deceived them
and have failed to redeem a single
pledge.

of Montana, Wis: That the demo

therefore, responsible for Legislation
for non-legislation upon this vita
subject. This is the rule laid dowr
by the democratic party itself, ant
it cannot escape the logical conclu
sion to be drawn from its own argu
ment.
The record then shows that tn,
democratic party has proven false t.
its pledges in behalf of free silver
and therefore the people of Montan;
can have no reasonable hope tina
lhey will do any more, as a party
for silver in the future than the,

DEM MOCRATS
Will Do Nothing for Silver. They
Have Violated Every Prom
Use They Ever Made.

The silver question is ad mittedly
one of the most vital questions affect
ing the interests of all the people of
the country to-day, because it is a
fact now universally conceded that
the decentralization of silver has led
to gradual but certain reduction in
the price of all the products of toll
in every line and branch of human
endeavor.
From broad economic point of
view, there can be no valid argument
advanced against the full and COM
plete restoration of silver as money
upon equal terms with gold,
and at ratio of Is to l. This is
the position taken by the republican
party of Montana, whose splendid
platform speakes in no uncertain
tones upon this vital subject, and
the coming Legislature is solemnly
pledged, if republican, not to vote
for any man in the United States SEN
ator who is not an acknowledge and
avowed friend and advocate of sill
yer. But, aside from the economic
phase of the silver question, the
state of Montana has also a vital in
terest in it from local point OF
view, because we are silver pro-
ducers. Silver mining with us is a
great industry, furnishing our peo-
pie with employment and creating
a market for the products of our
farms and ranches. Therefore, in
addition to the justice and wisdom
contained in the demand for free sill
yer, we have the incentive of strong
local interest to prompt and stimu-
late us.
In view of these facts, it behooves
the people of Montana to give more
than passing interests to the rela-
tive positions of the several political
parties now asking for their suffrages
upon this question which so vitality
affects their interests. And, first, lei
US examine into the democratic and
populist charge that the republican
party demonetized silver, and see
what truth there is in that assertion.
The basis of the oft-repeated charge
is, that the republican party was il
power when the act of 1873 was pas
sed. This is fact, but an examina
ton of the record shows that there
was no division upon party lines
whatever when the act of 1873 wa.
passed. Democrats and republicans
alike voted for the bill, and there
were hat few votes cast against it
The fact is that there were not hal
Il dozen men in Congress who knew
that ii demonetized silver! Presi
dent Grant did not himself know i
until long after he had signed th'
bill! /!
Therefore it will be apparent t.
every one that the republicans wer'
no more responsible for the act o
1873 than the democrats were, ex
cept upon the ground that they wer
in power, and were therefore respon
sible for whatever Legislation becam
f law.
So much, then, for republican re

We have heretofore said that Mr.. Walk

House of Representatives. lie discusses
questions in the pure light of reason.
and seldom uses @ phrase objectionable
to his Democratic opponents. He has stu

OF the Gamaliels OF the world. Whilst
speaking last week on the Hatch anti
option bill, Mr.. Walker took occasion
to propose what he calls "a practical
remedy for the silver question" or rather
a practical remedy for the unspeakable
wrong which was inflicted upon the whole
world when silver was demoneuzed and
gold made in effect the single measure

scheme contains several features. but the
two which we shall first name are more
interesting to us because they seem 20
us 20 have merit. though they do not
now appear to us TO have all the merits
which we once thought they possessed.
Mr.. Walker proposes:
l. To make paper money redeemable In
silver.
2. To make silver money reieemable in
gold.
.. To make silver money the domestic
legal tender. That Is 10 say. silver Is TO
be legal tender everywhere in the United
States. This last Is indeed remarkable
proposition to come from Massachu-

been thrown upon the financial question

Tho Leeds Meeting.

The much-talked-of anti-Lords meeting
held at Leeds last week seems for the
most part to have been grand aggrega-
,ion of political cranks and impractica-
bles. Men OF weight in the councils OK the
nation were rendered conspicuous by
their absence. Labouchere. as usual
made an exhibition OF himself, and the
sum total of the proceedings OF the meet
ing was to pass resolutions denouncing
the Lords for "vetoing' acts OF the
Commons and demanding that the govern
ment pass law giving the lower house
power by the reafIirmatlon OF any OF Its
acts and by the royal assent to override
a "yeto." 1t seems never to have entered
the heads of the ruling spirits or the
meeting that the Lords are as much a
mart of the government as the Crown ana
the Commons and that In order TO the
carrying out Of their programme the as
sent Of the upper house would be neces-
sary. Failing Of that assent the only
way they could accomplish their OBJECT
would be by revolution pure and simple.
When. therefore, the British public mind
comes TO realize this fact We may expect
the whole Leeds performance to be jeered
out of court. Judging from the natness
with which the resolutions passed by the
meeting fell, they are about as much an
index TO British public sentiment as was
the celebrated declaration OF the three
tailors of Tooley street.
