DAN BURNS AND MY DEAR
EST,EE.

l have spent the day principally out
side of the committee rooms discussing
matters with parties controlling large
interests and blocks of votes, and find
the situation much more pleasant than
l had anticipated. You will undoubt-
edly carry San Francisco by from two TO
five thousand votes.
Such is the cheering news sent from
Dan Burns in San Francisco to Mr..
Estee at Red Bluff. OF course Dan did
not intend to take the public into his
confidence when he wrote the letter.
The manner in which it became public
will be found elsewhere in this issue.
Mr.. Estee has been very careless, and
Dan ought to have known better than to
put such damaging evidence on paper.
However. the cat is out of the bag now,
and Mr.. Estee stands convicted of being
fully cognizant of the foul methods
resorted to by Burns to secure his cleo
tion. No one who knows anything OF
the past history of Burma, will be sur
prsed at the tenor of his lettor.
But that a man who sspires to the
great Office of governor would enter into
the foul details and become a party to
the traffic in votes by which Burns
hopes to succeed. will shock the moral
sense of the state and will cause such a
tidal wave of indignation that Burns.
Estee and company will not be able to
stem it, even with the blocks of votes
for which Burns is now bargaining in
San Francisco.

THE TRUTH ABOUT 1T.

The chief organ OF the Republican
party in Southern California designates
as "false and silly" the claim OCCASION
ally put forward in Democratic journals
that Cleveland found "a bankrupt
treasury" when he took the presiden-
tial chair March 4, 1898, having left
plethoric treasury when he retired from
Office on the 4th of March, 1889.
The claim is neither false nor silly.
Here are the facts, taken from a state.
ment prepared by an official in the
treasury department. which cannot be
disputed.
THE DEMOCRATIC RECORD.

the gold reserve. March l, 1885,
Agency account. nt................$ "a, 4,502, ,445.02

Total available. le..............$ 62,520,575.1s
Gold reserve. .......... 100000, 10000
So that when Mr.. Cleveland returned
to the White House, March 4. 1898, the
surplus of $23O.00O,0 600 had been dssi-
pated by Republican extravaganza. Not
only that, but they had expended the
amount collected from all sources during
Harrison's administration on-the vast sum
OF one billion, five hundred and thirty
six millions, four hundred and fifty
Thousand. eight hundred and forty-two
dollars and ninety-six cents Isl 1856, ,450.-
842.96). In the face OF these facts it
cannot be denied that the Democrats re-
ceived depleted and bankrupt vault.
The grand surplus left by Cleveland
had been dissipated, and Mr.. Harrison's
secretary of the treasury had been beg
ging congress for authority to issue bonds
to enable him to refill the deep hole
made in the treasury. 1t is WE'LL
known TACT that, in anticipation of re-
ceiving congressional authority to issue
bonds, Mr.. Foster had already caused
the bureau of engraving and printing to
prepare plates upon which these pro-
posed bonds were to be printed.
