CLEvELAND's FINANCIAL VIEWS.
Sound Money Sense In His Last Presiden.
thai Message.


81 am more convinced than eyer "
| says the president in his message. that
we can have no assured financial peace
and safety until the government cur
rency obligations upon which gold NAV
be demanded from the treasury are
Withdrawn from circulation and cam
celed."
The president once more recommends
that the outstanding notes be retired.
either by TN issue of longtime low-in-
terest bonds or by canceling them when
ever presented for redemption. The lat
ter process he thinks would be slow, but
it would be an improvement on present
conditions.
The retirement of the government
from the business of banking is I'M
doubleday the first step toward any
permanent financial reform. Until that
is accomplished nothing is accomplished
and the business world will continue on
the edge of the precipice of panic.
The president further very Justly saws
that in considering the subject of the re-
tirement of the United States notes we
have placed too much stress upon the
danger of contracting the currency In
fact, there will be little contraction, IL
any, for the gold drawn from the treas
ury would take the place in the circula-
ton of the redeemed notes. But If this
were not SO the currency we would then
have would attract gold. being invited
to us by better and safer financial
methods" Particularly would this be
the case If the second method of retire
nent of the notes proposed by the presi-
dent were adopted. The Times Herald
has already suggested and advocated
this plan. Repeal the reissuing section
of the act of 1873 and let it be under
stood that when the notes were pre-
scented for payment they could be paid
and cancelled. The president says the
process would be slow, and this is true,
but that might be one of its merits. 1t
would give ample time for any necessary
business readjustment. and would not
contract the currency in any appreca-
BILE way. and it would be exactly in the
line of American conservatism
The president concludes this part of
his message with these words:
our business interests ana all good Citt-
Gems long for rest from feverish agitation,
and the inauguration by the government Of
a reformed financial policy which will en-
courage enterprise and make certain the
rewards of labor and industry"
This is the acknowledge truth. We
want rest from this perpetual agitation
of the money question. We want our
finances TO be stable, and our currency
good the world ovsr--as good next year
as to-day.
Our financial history of the past %
years ought to strike every rejecting
American with amaZement if not with
shame. 1t record of demagogery and
folly. of makeshifts and cXpedients and
of an agitation that at last threatened
universal bankruptcy and involved the
national honor. The highest business
interests of the people have been put
in the greatest jeopardy for the sake of
the mining camps, and jugglcd with as
though they were mere counters in the
game of politics.
1t is TO be hoped that this disgraceful
chapter is now closed and that fairer
page will soon be opened.

Cleveland silent on tho r.rlr.

Remembering that President Cleve-
land is the man who advised congress
that tariff is the illegal, unjust and un-
constitutional source of revenue" it is
remarkable that the final message of the
president to congress has little to say
about tariff. by silence consent is
given" says the old proverb. And Mr..
Cleveland's silence Is equal to consent.
He entered upon his presidential career
ignorant, as he himself has confessed,
of any knowledge of tariff legislation
and of the effects thereof. He wobbled,
as nearly all neophytes do, toward the
Adam Smith philosophy. He saw IL
tried in modified form by Wilson.
German, Crisp and others, and he has
seen the effects thereof. He does not
care to discuss them in his message,
and it may be inferred that he has had
enough of them. The presidents 81.

THE DUTY ON WOOL.
1t should 30 Restored by the Incoming
Administration.

So many democrats and silver men
are disposed TO let the republicans have
free haud in tariff legislation next
winter that there may be chance 10
pass some kind of relief bill without
waiting for an extra session OF con
gress. Ii so, the interests of the wool
growers should be promptly consid-
cred. AS they are the greatest sufferers
as class by the Gorman-Wilson law
it is but fair that they should be the
earliest beneficiaries by the change of
policy which the country decided upon
ut the November polling.
Since 1892, when the tariff was taken
eff wool, the loss to growers has been
nearly. if not quite, S240, 100000. This Is
independent of the loss to manufac;ur-
ers of wooden fabrics and their opera
tives. The total deficit is large enough
10 account for widespread distress of
families and stringency Of trade with
out citing the evidence of any other in
dustrial collapse. BY parity of reason
ing a return to the old basis would add
in generous measure to the prosperity
which is beginning to manifest itself
in many branches Of business.
But the main thing, of course. is for
the republican party, as represented
in congress, to carry out its pledges.
We have advised careful steps in the
matter of a general tariff law, but the
wool men know exactly what they want
of congress, and this agrees with what
the party thinks they ought to have

Kinley wool clauses, and IL this can be
done at the winter session, so much the
better.-Sam Francisco Chronicle.

CHANCE FOR MARSHALL
Another Murd erer Respited From the
Rope by the Supreme
Court.

Charles Marshall, who was convicted
and sentenced to death for the murder OF
Frank Hamilton, has been granted new
trial by the Supreme Court.
Marshall was convicted of killing Frank
Hamilton in Riverside on April 8, 1895.
In instructing the jury the trial court said
that when the killing was proved it rested
with the defendant to show any cir
cumstance in mitigation to excuse or
justify-that is, the killing being proved,
it rested with the defense to make out a
case in mitigation. This was afterward
qualified by the instruction that at ali
times the burden of proof rested on the
people
The Acknowledgement admitted that the
instruction was erroneous, but pleaded
that the peoples case was so conclusive as
to rob the instruction of any harm IL
might otherwise have done the defendant,
also that the general instruction on the
burden of proof relieved the first error.
The Supreme Court holds differently, how
ever, and the order denying new trial is
reversed.
To give contradictory instructions, the
court says, is to commit error, and it is
almost always impossible to say whether
the jury has the erroneous instruction OF
the correct one.

fruits, grapes, cereals and other products grow
well without water, they will do better with
irrigation. That fruits especially attain a
larger size and better flavor and make finer
preserves where irrigation is pursued has been
repeatedly demonstrated Furthermore, there
is hardly q valley or plain in this section of
the State but what can be watered at very lit
