incident at the close of President Har-
rison's administration. The overthrow
of the government of Hawaii, and
the substitution therefore of an oil

people, was accomplished only with the
aid of the then United States minister,
who not only openly countenancsd the
movement but ordered the forces OF the
United States vessels then in the har-
Dor of Honolulu so placed as to in

the extent that this government was a

The passage by congress of the bill
embodying the presidents suggestion
that provision be made for the appoint
ment of a commission to examine into

claims will make plain to the people
abroad that the views expressed by the
president are endorsed by the country,
and will contribute largely to dissi-
patton of the idea seemingly prevalent
in England that the exigencies of poll
tics inspired the message.
The commission bill will also have
the more important effect of deferring
a settlement of the territorial dispute
for probably year or more, and in
that time much may occur to eliminate
the probability of so unfortunate q

SENATOR SHERMAN'S TANGLE

If Senator Sherman is correctly re-
ported in his remarks delivered in the
course of the debate on the Venezuelan
commission bill, he is somewhat loose
in his historical citations. In depre-
eating hasty action on the part Of con-
gress he adverted to the gravity Of the
situation, and said that the Monroe
doctrine had not been applied in any
particular case, and that "we had our
selves disregarded it by taking posses
sion of Texas aud California" When
a man of the standing and acknowl-
edged intelligence Of Senator Sherman
lapses into such inexcusable mistakes,
one can reasonably despair of the
lesser lights of his party. No wonder
the average Republican editor and
orator INDUCED in such wild and in
applicable versions of the Monroe doc
trine and its applicability at the time
of the Corinto incident. The Repub-

Sherman seems to be ignorant of when
the doctrine has been applied aud when
it has not been violated. The inability

eminent cannot be expected to abide
by the opinions of the commission,
if the conclusions reached by that
body are unfavorable to its claims, it
is not at all unreasonable to suppose
that it will feel constrained to defer
territory until the commission reports,
so as to get the benefit of chance of
report against Venezuela. In the
latter contingency the boundary line
would cease to be a subject for con-
flict between England and the United
States, because, of course. the latter
could not object to the former occupy
ing territory which their own commits
sicners declared belonged to her.
England can thus await the event of

CALIFORNIA;. s.. GRF Attest
DRAWBACK

Cal!fOrnl2 is Unqle tionably the best
country in the world as respects nat
ural resources and climate. We cay
this not with view of disparsging any
other country or state. But highly
favored by nature as is California,
there are some man-made conditions
which initiate seriously against the
rapid settlement of the state, and
which must be changed before this
commonwealth can reach its highest
destiny.
The worst drawback to settlement
and progress within our boundaries is
land monopolilation. The same evil
exists in every other state, but that is
no reason why California should con-
tinue to suffer from it if it can be
abolished. While monopoly of land
In populous cities, where land has it's
greatest values, retards the growth of
those cities, the same species Of monop-
oily in the rural districts also initiates
against settlement and improvement
there.
Some remarkable cases of large land
ownership in this state are we'll known
in a general way, but not as to details.
For instance, Mr.. Miller, the surviving
member of the tirm of Miller & Lux of
Ban Francisco, own land in California,
Oregon and Nevada, aggregatiDg H.
639, 900 acres, or 22,717 square miles A
large portion of this enormous area is

various qualities, from the richest and
best agricultural land to the poorest
spots for grazing purposes, but all of
1t has some value, and there is plenty
Of unemployed or partially employed
LABOR that would be applied to it we're
opportunity given. The greed of one
man, however, stands in the way.
Mr.. Miller recently informed an in
Quirer that he was improving a few
acres of his territory ia spots, here and
there, just to show people what it was
capable of producing. Meanwhile,
would-be settlers and home builders
must pay b g speculative prices for
small pieces of the Miller domain or
heoP I'll tuo grass l. liz Dali ETau-
Disco Call, in commenting upon the Mil
Ter land cinch, said: His thousands of
miles of barbed wire fence are greater
barrier to the progress of the state
than the Sierra Nevadas themselves"
This is putting it none too strongly,
but If the Miller and Lux land scheme
which has resulted as described we're
the only one of great magnitude in
California, the state might progress
with considerable rapidity in spite of
1t. Unfortunately, though that is the
biggest land cinch in the state, there
are &c ores of others of enormous pro-
portions. That the holding by private
parties of millions of acres unim-
proved, or but partly improved,
for speculative prices, is a most
serious detriment to the pro-
gress of this naturally productive
state, no intelligent person can
doubt. California ought to have
100000 population today, with
millions more coming in the near
future. Her natural advantages and
