grated into strong party organization,
Is the only way in which political results
can be produced. The extreme gold men
in our party will 60 over to the. Repub
licans. The free silver men of al PARTIES
must come to the Democracy, and, with
our Objectionable statesmen eliminated,
the confidence of the people in the Demo-
cratic party will be strengthened and con-
firmed."
Mr. Henrichsen states very palpable
fact when he says that few men in Wash
ington can not, and will not, control 49,
100000 voters, Gen. Palmer's and Grover
Cleveland's opinion to the contrary not
withstanding.
In recent dispatch published in this
paper Gen. Palmer is credited with saying
that the Illinois Democracy is not in
favor of free coinage. 1t is but very re-
Gently that Gen. Palmer has posed, even
in his own mind, as the mouthpiece of
the Democracy of Illinois 1t is not so
very long ago since the general came over
from the Republican ranks and it is a
very evident fact that his return to that
party of monometalists and gold bugs
will not affect the Dem ocracy in the least.
President Cleveland, according to dis
patch to the Chicago Daily News of April
8, is credited with saying to a caller at
the White house:
81 am deeply gratified by the stand
Senator Palmer has taken against the
proposed free silver convention in Iii
nois."
The people of the United States are
awake to the fact, at last, that justice to
silver by legislation is the only means by
which the country can hope to retrieve
its former prosperity, and they have made
up their minds to the fact that no one
man, or set of men, be he or they Grover
Cleveland, Gen. Palmer, John Sherman
or whomsoever, is essential to their hap
piness, so long as he or they stand in the
way of the free and unlimited coinage of
silver,

DEMOCRACY AND SILVER.

To the Democrats of the United
States:
Washington, Mch. Ave the I'M
dersigned Democrats, present for
your consideration the following state
ment We believe that the establish
ment of gold as the only monetary stand
ard and the elimination of silver as a
full legal tender money will increase the
purchasing power of each dollar, and SO
the burden of all debts, decrease the mar
ket value of all other forms of property
and continue and increase the business
depression and finally reduce the ma iority
of the people to financial bondage. We
believe no party can hope for enduring
success in the United States 80 long as it
advocates single gold standard, and
that the advocacy of such financial
policy would be especially dangerous to
party which, like the Democra party,
derives its voting strength from those
who may without reproach be called the
common people; and we point to the
overwhelming defeat of the party in 1894,
to the opposition aroused by the veto of
the seigniorage bill and to the still more
unanimous protest against the issue of
gold bonds as proof that the Democratic
party can not be brought to the support
of the gold standard policy.
We believe that the money question
will be the paramount issue in 1896, and
will SO remain until it is settled by the
intelligence and patriotism of the Ameri-
can voters.
We believe majority of the Demo-
Gratis of the United States favor bimetal-
lsm and realize that it can be secured
only by tho restoration of the free and
unlimited coinage Of gold and silver at
majority has and should exercise the
right to control the policy of the party
and retain the party name.
We believe it is the duty of the ma or-
ity and within their power to take charge
of the party organization and make the
Democratic party an effective instrument
in the accom- plishment of needed re-
forms.
It is not necessary that Democrats
should surrender their convictions on
other question in order to take an active
part in the settlement of the question
which at this time surpasses all others in
Importance. We believe that the rank
and file of the party should at once as
sert themselves in the Democratic party
and place it on record in favor of the i'm.
mediate restoration of the free and I'M
limited coinage of gold and silver at the
present legal ratio of is to l, as such
coinage existed prior to 1873, without
waiting for the aid or consent of any
other nation, such gold and silver to be a
full legal tender for all debts, public and
private.

THE WAR Is on.

The time is rapidly approaching when
the leaders of the great national parties
must announce to the public how they
stand on the one great question of the
time-the silver question. When the
sheep will be divided from the goats,
parties and leaders must either 60 to
the front or fall with the people. The
war ls on, and will be fought to finish
before the close of the national cam
paign of next year.
At special meeting of the Demo-
cratic state central committee of Illinois,
held at Springfield on the 4th of this
month, call was issued for state con-
vention, to meet in that city on June 4,
next, to consider the issue for the next
campaign. The call says in part:
''The only national question now be-
fore the American people is that OF the
currency question. The next national
campaign must be fought out with the
currency az the issue between the parties
and it behooves the Democratic party as
party to assume decided position on
this question and to draw its party lines
according to the wishes of majority of
its members. The basic principles of
Democracy forbid the decision of i'm
portant questions by party leaders with
out instructions from the people, and it
ia therefore proper for this committee to
call on the Democrats of the precincts,
townships and counties of this state to
meet in convention in their respective
localities, to discuss freely the great
question before the people, to give ex-
preston to their views in appropriate
resolutions and to select delegates to
convention to be held at the state CAPT
tall"
Chairman Henrichsen, of the Illinois
Democratic state central committee, in
an interview emphatically states that ad-
vices from every county in the state out
side of Cool, are to the effect that 30 per
He farther states that the main plank of
the platform ON which Democracy will
make the national campaign in 1896 will
be the free coinage plank, and that silver
Republicans will work with the Demo-
Gratis on that issue, while Democrats of
monometallic tendencies will 20 to the
Republican ranks. As to the effect on
the Republican party, Mr.. Henrichsen
says:
Gas party they are pledged to mono
metallism, and can take no other ground
unless they straddle the question. Thous-
ands of them will join the Democrats, for
they believe in free silver. I certainly
expect to carry the state and county in
1895. This movement will be in effect a
reorganization of the Democratic party"
Regarding the prospects of an indie
pendent silver party, he says: "The at
tempt begins at the wrong end. few
men at Washington can not control 12,-
100000 voters. The county movement,

the circulation of foreign silver. The

to continue in circulation, but all further

On April 18th to Goth inclusive car
nival entitled "La fiesta de Los Angeles"
will be held at Los Angeles, Calf.
1t is under the management of ths
Merchants Association, an influential
organization of business men who have
large resources and it lie expected that
the carnival will excel the Mardi Gras or
any similar fete ever attempted in Ameri
ca.
The fiesta of 1894 was pronounced
success from every standpoint and the
plans. for the 1895 event promise the
most unique fete OF modern times. As
you doubtless understand, there are
peculiar conditions which make celebra-
ton of THIS character more enjoyable
there than elsewhere, among which may
be mentioned the mild climate, an abund-
ance of fruits and flowers, and the hrs
toric and romantic associations of Cali

terials for many artistic and unique feat

SURPRISING FIGURES.

The California Congressional delegation
and the accompanying engineers who have
been inspecting the Sacramento and San
Joaquin rivers with view to secure a
Congressional appropriation for these
waterways have made some surprising dis
coveries. The most important is the
amount of traffic which the rivers are al
ready carrying, crippled though they are.
Thus, the San Joaquin River above An
tioch has already transported during the
year ending June of the present year a
quantity of freight sufficient to load 27S
ships of 1000 tons burden each. 1t was
composed as follows: Millstuffs, 10000
tons; hay, 1900 tons; wheat, $4,000 tons !;
coal, A. 700 tons; lumber. $4,000 900 feet !;
wool, wine and similars, 1900 tons; prod
uce, including fruit and vegetables, o. 224
tons; livestock, 81 ,642 head; miscellaneous
freight up, ,672 tons; brick, 49, 900 tons !;
passengers, 123. 293.
Another discovery of great Importance
is that the material secured from dredging
and strengthening can be used adyan-
tageously in building needed levees along
the streams, and that this double service
is done at a cost of only 2 cents a cubic
efficiency of the patent dredgers employed
account for this. Hence, dredging, straight
ening and levee building all greatly
needed mprovements-can be done at one
operation and at an amazingly small cost.
1t would not be difficult to estimate the
expense required to deepen the San Joa-
gum eight feet, which would permit of
propellers instead of the cumbersome
stern-wheelers now in service for towing.
Petaluma and Napa creeks will be SINH
larly inspected after the vicinity of Val
lejo has received attention. These are
very important little streams. for not only
do they penetrate two of the richest val
leys in the State, but they would offer, if
properly attended to, permanent OBJ
stacle to railroad monopoly of trans
pOrtation

HEIGHT OF BUILDINGS.

To the Editor of the San Francisco Cdll-SIR: In
the matter at present in agitation before the
Board OF Supervisors and in the daily press, in
relation to fixing by City ordinance the linn
itation for height of brick buildings hereafter
to be erected in San Francisco, permit me to
present the following suggestions:
Instead of jumped at lump conclusion of
100 feet for buildings on Market and other
similar width streets, and 100 feet on all other
streets, let the ultimatum of heights of struc-
lures be based upon percentage of width of
the respective streets, which If placed at LIS
per cent would give for Market-street improve
ments height of 1877 IS feet, approximately 20
feet less than the Chronicle building and more
than 100 feet less than the new CALL building
at Market and Third streets. On streets 80 e
feet wide, 144:415 feet; on streets 90 g feet,
120 :3$ feet, and on those 60 feet wide, 1O5
feet, and so on.
This would provide perfect equality in the
matter OF sunlight and shadows, SO much
prated about by those who from motives of
jealousy dislike to see grander structures than
their own on3their neighbors' lots and others
with restricted ideas not yet enlarged to the
full possibilities of the future nor proper
comprehension OF the progressive spirit of the
present age, or who, possessing no realty of
their own, are envious of those to whom the
goddess of fortune has been specially kind.
But, in any case, the percentage proposition is
q practical and equitable method of eoualizinp
the height of structures, If it must be done nv
City ordinance, instead of leaving it to the
good judgment of owners

AN EARNEST GOVERNOR.

Governor Culberson of Texas has sur
pri sed the sporting fraternity by calling a
special session of the Legislature for the
purpose of passing law making prize
fighting felony, in order to prevent the
Injecting" of Corbett and Fitzsimmons.
The most interesting feature of the case is
belief that the Populists and other politi-
cal enemies of the Governor will unite to
make the law operative only after this par
ticular meeting has occurred. If this is a
libel sprung upon the Populists for politi-
cal effect it behooves them to repudiate 1t
without delay, or hereafter keep silence
when questioned as to the morality and in
telligence of their aims.
1t has been asserted that certain dis
tinguished woman is using her influence
to insure the fight, on the ground that the
people of Texas want it to occur. She is
none other than the Governors wife. She
may be right in her assumption, for all we
know, although it is still hard to accept
the fact that Texas has not yet emerged
from a condition of standardization. We
should rather regard it as a part of the
United States and as representative of the
decency and intelligence which our people
claim to possess.
The reports concerning the Populists
and this influential woman may be I'M
true, but if they are true, the Populists
need never afterward hold up their heads
and assume to command the respect of the
country, and the woman who has allied
herself with the prize-fighting fraternity
might be made profitable subject for
missionary work on the part of the clean,
earnest, intelligent women Of the country.
