n DISINTEGRA7ING PARTY.

In no spirit of party persifage, but in
sober consideration of ths signs OF tho
times, interpreted in the light of polit-
ical history and social science, we con.
6dently assert that there are disintegrat-
ing forces at work in the Republican
party which must, in no long time, bring
about its dissolution.
A primary fact to be remembered is
that the Republican party, unlike the
Democratic. was originally formed of
heterogeneous elements which were only
fused os an opportunist organic alton be-
cause the Democratic party was split in
twain in 1859, and there was the assur-
ance OF certain victory by coalition OF
the Whig, Free-Soil, Abolition and
Know.Nothing clans.
Now the Wing element, or remnant
OF that day was the advocate of no dis
tinctive doctrine, save an insistence
upon the propriety of the government
"going in" for large internal improve
ments. The benefcent effects of the
Walker tariff, in practical operation,
had won for the Democrats such gem
erai acqUiescence in the doctrine of q
tariff for revenue only that even Henry
Clay felt that it was folly to try to make
an issue upon it. The Free Soilers we're
not go much in love with the idea of
negro emancipation as they were hostile
to the extension OF the power of the
slave states. The Abolition party was a
strong one in its personnel, but as
numerically weak. 1t was a special
mission party, like the Prohibition party
OF today. OF the famous proHcriptive We
Know-Knothing party, which was born OF
jealous hostility to our naturalzed
citizens, we have read much of late. II
loved darkness better than light, but i!
stole in and became the very backbon G
OF the new Republican party, and iit
spirit has ever since been the dominant
one in that organization.
1t is not difficult to recognize in the
present Republican party traces OF its
original constituent elements which

additions to California appropriations,
and when we secure our deep water
harbof, the result will be mainly at
tributable to his efforts. When the Ex-
press said that Senator White had an
tagonized our fruit interests, we quoted
q resolution adopted by the fruit growers
Of the Tulare valley commanding him
for his successful efforts In favor of that
interest. To this we might have added
resolution of the same charac-
ter passed by the Republican
county convention of Fresno county.
Still the Express has not had the candor
to acknowledge its error. 1t ia malicious
as well as untruthful. II the Express
is so strongly snti-Chinese why does it
favor the election OF Mr.. Estee. who de-
clsred that Mongolians were better fitted
for citizens than negroes? Why does it
not answer the inquiry as to whether
its candidate for senator is individually
and through his corporation. an en-
ployer of Chinese? Why did il support
the great Chinese advocate, Harrison,

does il stand in with the railroad on the

MR.. PATTON'S REAL ESTATE AT
SAN PEDRO.

There is no public question in which
Mr.. Huntington is so deeply interested.
outside OF the Reilly funding bill, as in
the location of the deep water harbor at
Santa Monica, where he and Senator
Jones own all the frontage.
Happily, however, the merits Of tho
harbor question are thoroughly UNDER
stood by the people OF Southern Califor-
mia. and public sentiment is practically
unanimous in favor of San Pedro.
1t only remains to decide who shall go
to congress from this district to carry
out the peoples wishes.
The Express, which is the railroad or
gan and opposed to the public
interest in this matter. is ar
IDENTITY supporting Mr.. McLachlsn. the
Republican nominee, and ingeniouely
among other things suggests that Mr..
Patton should not be elected, as he is
largely interested in real estate at San
Pedro and would become q millionaire if
the desp.watsr harbor were located at
that place.
II Mr.. Patton's sincerity on the ques-
tion were al all in doubt this certainly
would be clinching argument in his
favor, for if he can carry out the wishes
OF his constituents, and become a mill
ionsire by 80 doing. there can no longer
be any doubt of the eminent propriety
OF electing him.
To the Express, which is Mr.. Hunting.
toms organ in Southern California and
favors Santa Monica. the fact that Mr..
Patton owns real estate near San Pedro, is
of course good reason why he should be
beaten. Mr.. McLachlsn was nominated
by Hervey Lindley and G. F. Webber
He doubtless has permission from Mr..
Huntington 10 say what he pleases on
the stump, if he votes right when elected,
and of the latter Mr.. Huntington has
probably good assurance or the Express
would not support him. Mr.. McLach-
Ian owns no real estate at San Pedro.

were only held in solution by the war
spirit and for awhile after the war, by
the cohesive power of public plunder.
Then the badly amslgamated organism
began to crack. First the Abolition ele-
ment began to desert, and has been de-
serting ever since. 1t has found its way
into the ranks of the Mugmumps, the
single-taxers. the Prohibitionists. and
many are Democrats. The substantial
Whig element OF the party is becoming
restive under high protectionism. 1t
Is learning the lesson OF the old
Whips of 1857 that a tariff for
revenue only is the only defensible
tariff. There abdes with it some
old Federalistic traditions about the de-
STABILITY of a strong, centralized govern
ment and, if it is not driven out by
the know-Nothing A. P. A. highbinderB.
will constitute in the end all that will
make an opposition party to the ever>
living party of Thomas Jefferson.
The Know.Nothing element OF the
Republican party remains today. as it
was at first, the largest constituent
element OF the organization. It is the
A. P. A of the present hour. That it
has in 1t the potency for evil to disrupt
any party is an opinion not confined to
Democrats. The Republican leaders in
the east are alarmed, for they well know
that bigotry and intolerance cannot be
the mainstay of great national party
in the last days Of the nineteenth CEN
turv.

Mr.. EST,EE AND THE COLORED
TOT,ERS.

Some of the Democratic papers are
quoting speech said to have been de-
livered by Hon. M. NJ. Estee in the leg
islature come 80 years ago, against the
admission OF uncorroborated negro or
Chinese testimony in conrts of justice.
Whether Mr.. Estee, in 1868, did or did
not utter the worde attributed to him,
is matter OF not the least consequence
at the present time. In 1868 the negro
had not been admitted to the rights of
citizenship. and public opinion was
much divided as to the expediency of
conferring those rights upon him.
Los Angeles Times.
We have not the bill referred to be.
fore ua at present, but if it included
Chinese, as stated above, it certainly
does not improve Mr.. Estee's position,
as his amendment reads as follows:
Mr.. Estee moved to amend the bill
by adding providing that no verdict
shall be found upon the uncorroborated
testimony of negroes; and in cases OF
trial by jury it shall be the duty OF the
court to instruct the jury to disregard
the testimony OF negroes unless corrob-
GRATED by other evidence"
The proposed amendment only refers
to negroes, and be evidently was willing
that the uncorroborsted evidence of q
Chinaman should be taxed, but would
not believe negro unless corroborated
by Chinaman or a white man.
The statement that at that time the
negro WAS not a voter is probably the
true explanation, and the negro being
now voter and Mr.. E,tee a candid ate

A REPUBLICAN SIDESHOW.

The first tangible fruits of the Ameri.
can Protective association may readily
be discerned in the organization just
begun in San Francisco styled the
American Liberal league. This new
combination is defensive. 1t is politi-
cal coun untermine to the A. P. A. 1t is
the legitimate, logical sequence to the
avowed purposes and known practices
OF the A. P. A. Aggression provokes
resistance; wrong begets a sense of
injustice; and, as was to be expected,
the A. P. A. movement has produced
inevitably this counter-movsment. The
necessity for the formation OF the
A. L. L. is scarcely apparent, however,
for the Democratic party, both in Cali
fornia and in other parts of the
United States. true to the prin.
ciples Of religious liberation which
lie at the foundation of its political
tenets, has boldly taken the field against
the proscriptive spirit dominating the
secret councils OF the A. P. A. In reso-
utions. in platforms, in campaign
speeches, everywhere in the United
States. the Democratic party declares
with no uncertain sound, its continued
adherence to the great principles Of re-
ligious liberty as enunciated in Article
vi, of the Constitution of the United
States, aud has declared its unfalterirg
Opposition to any distinction of birth
or religious creed in the rights OF Amer
ican citizenship. and has put itself in
open antagonism to any organization
which aims to introduce such distinc-
tions into politics. The Democratic
party makes its fight openly, believing
that the way to contend for a good
cause is in the clear light of day,
and that 1t is only bad causes which
need the ministry of dark lantern
politics. The republic is welded to re-
ligious liberation; has ever been since
Catholic France aided America to achieve
independence, and will, we believe. ever
continue to be so welded while the
broad, liberal, tolerant religious spirit
that pervaded the patriotism of Wash

shed its benefcent influence over the
politics of the nation. The position of
the Democratic party on this question is
unmistakable it ia noble. lofty. in keep
ing with the elevation and grandeur OF
the American republic, and in perfect
accord with the fundamental prin-
ciples upon which it rests.
What 10 the position of the Republican
party on this qnestion-s party that
boasts of its devotion to the GAUGE OF
freedom? In what resolution, or in
what platform. or by the mouth of what
campaign orator, has it ever uttered q
word against the A. P. A.? On the
contrary, has it not tacitiy accepted al
lance with that organization, permitted
it to control the party caucuses, and to
dictate the party nominations in its con-
ventions? If such be the case, is it not
fact that the A. P. A. is a sideshow to
the Republican party, and does not the
Republican party fail to put itself on
record as opposed to religious proscrip.
tion of large class OF our fellow citi-
zens?
