A Unity of the Pacific States.

Editor Morning CdlL-DEAR SIR: Ignored
as the Pacific Coast has been by Congress. the
legislation being altogether In favor OF those
In the East, it is plain that we do not send the
proper material TO represent the Pacific States
in the Senate, as 1t shows plainly that our rep
resentatives in the halls of Congress fail to
make known the wants and desires OF this
coast. LeglsIated against, as we have been o!
late, each State fighting its own battle, and
poorly at that, the writer thinks a more united
action of the entire Pacific Coast States could
effect better legislation than has heretofore
been the case.
The blow which silver received at the hands
OF Congress during It's late extra session has
stunned many of the Pacific States from which
they are slowly recovering, If they ever
may. 1t WAS an nnwise and unjust act
Of Congress. not In the words but just as
much as the decentralization Of silver. 1t was
al the door of silver that our IDanciers laid all
direful calamities that fell upon the nation
which evidently showed that they were incor-
rect, for, were they correct all affairs of trade
would revive Immediately upon the removal OF
that so-called bug bear, the Sherman silver act
but they nave net recovered.
One more important and injurious act OF
Congress-and our homo legislation was the
reasOn-was to cease hydraulic mining. which
caused the State of California to shut OF the
taking from the mines of California nearly
81 100000.
In the affairs OF politics our representatives
have figured merely as fgureheads, and only
known that they existed when il came to vet
ing. SO for common interests and 10 the hopes
of bettering the condition of the Pacific States
they should unite and promote everything that
is OF Pacific Coast manufacture, as they can ex-
pect In the future, as they have received In the
past, very little aid from the East Our inter
ests are common; each State has been for IT,
self; but by showing united front we could
receive more recognition and derive better re-
suits.
What has affected California most has been
the loss of the trade of the Pacific Coast States
and Territories. To regain our prestige we
must have their aia, and with their aid we can
forge ahead the Pacific Coast and make it
greater than it has ever been heretofore.

Coast Association Of Mel chants. We, the mer-
chants. represent the capital, energy and

UNCLE SANS DEBTS.

The financial problem which con-
fronts the secretary of the treasury at
this time, and which has been made
the theme of an earnest appeal for con.
gressional assistance in the form Of a
special act empowering the secretary
to issue three per cent gold bonds and
sell the sams ut par, is strong argu
ment against the pending tariff bill.
1t shows. in new and vivid manner.
the extraordinary folly of attempting
to pass a revenue measure the in
stantaneous effect of which would be
to add to the existing deficit to an ex-
tent variously estimated at $40, 900, 900
annually. II even the Mckinley tariff,
under threat OF demolition, fails to
supply sufficient revenue to pay the ex.
penses Of government as administered
by Democrats, allowing for pres
ent internal revenues, what a palpable
absurdity it must be to expect congress
10 supplant the Mckinley tariff with
one that would raiss $4,000, 900 less
revenue each year! Any child would
condemn such q method of hnancier.
ing.
But the Democratic secretary of the
treasury goes even further than this.
Not only does he ask congress to pass
the Wilson bill, with its seventy five
million additional deficiency, but re.
cognizing that the continued threat of
such foolish action is hourly decreas-
ing even what little revenue he now
finds accessible, under the fine Dsmo.
cratic era of promised prosperity, the
secretary furthermore beseeches con
gress to issue notes of hand, otherwis o
known as gold bonds, with interest
payable in gold coin at rate not to
exceed three per centum. Such an
issue does not create wealth. 1t does
not in the slightest iota add to
the existing quantity of hard cash.
1t simply shoves the day Of settlement
Il few years forward, trusting to luck
for the bonds future redemption. In
other words, for the inOffable pleasure
of getting Mr.. Wilson's pet bill con-
verted into law, Secretary Carlisle is
willing 70 pile the government debt up
at both ends and shunt the whole per-
picking problem over to the shoulders
of future financiers.
The secretary dwells long and Low.
ingly on the need of strong gold re-
serve. 1t seems to be a Democratic
passion to yearn for large surplus
sages Yet it is fact of record
that under Mr.. Carlisle's admins ira
ton the gold reserve has reached its
lowest notch, and that at a time when
an unrepealed law gave him the privi-
lege, independent of congress, of au-
thorizing an issus of bonds, The va

strikingly illustrated than in this al.

to the Morrison tariff bill, William L.
Wilson, a representative from West
Virginia, concluded an elaborate pro-
test against the proposed freeing of

ITO take any one great interest and
transfer it suddenly to thefreO list is
TO hold 1t tributary to all the rest,
