McGOwAN'S CANDIDACY.
Bakersfield Echo: An exchange says
Frank MCGOWAN of Humboldt County
is candidate for Congress from the
First District That is somewhat out
side of our bailiwick, but we neverthe-
less venture a word on the subject
This we may do with some propriety
since a member from a California dis
trict is a member from the whole of
California in great sense, and the
people in the Seventh have an interest
in the member from the First
Senator MCGOWAN is by no means an
unknown man in California. For eight
years he has served in the State Senate
and we believe he had one or two terms
in the Assembly before that. At any
rate. he has had a good schooling IN
legislative work, and would, if elected
to go to Washington, be we'll equipped
for the work before him.
In his legislative career Senator Nc
Gowan has always been ranked as a
stanch friend of the people where their
interests We're antagonized by corpora
tions or powerful individuals.
He W3S the dUlNOT OF the cOuHly III
surance bill, the pure butter bill and
other important pieces OF legislation
that passed his branch of the Legis-
lature last year, and he was also the
author of the comprehensive resolu-
ton against the refunding bill which
passed the Senate.
California would be honored and ben
Gifted by sending so tireless and intelli-
gent a worker to Congress as Senator
McGowan is, and we hope to see him
nominated and elected.

Views of Saml j. Tilden on I'm
sound Finance.

Uncertainty is the prolific pa
rent of mischief in II business.
Men do nothing, because they are
unable to make any calculations
on which they may safely rely.
They undertake nothing, because
they fear loss in everything they
would attempt.
They hope and wait. The mel
chants dare not buy for the future
consumption of his customer. The
manufacturer dares not make
fabrics which may not refund his
outlay. He shuts his factory and
discharges his work men. Capital
lists cannot lend on secu rity they
con slider unsafe, and their funds lie
almost without interest. Men OF
enterprise who have credit or Sc
curities to pledge will not borrow.
The people need to know that the
Government is moving in the H.
rection of ultimate safety and pros
perity, and that it is doing so
through prudent, safe and conser-
vative methods which will be sure
to infict no new sacrifice on the
business of the country. Then the
inspiration of new life and well
founded confidence will hasten the
restoring processes of nature and
and prosperity win begin to re-
turn.

The present campaign has

The present campaign has
been one OF education, and it is
pleasure to note that the Demo
Gratis have made substantial pro
gress. They have at last learned
that Lidcoln was not only good
man, but also one of the greatest
statesmen this country has ever
produced. And as to religion, the
reverence for Deity and the belief
in the efficacy of prayer which has
developed since Lewis speech in
hirksville is a surprise even to
the De-: ocrats themselves. Verify
the campaign has been one of edu-
cation.
Never before in the history
of this country did candidate for
President find himself reduced to
the necessity of 1attering poverty
and shiftlessness for the sake of
votes. Where is scriptural ref
erence to pearls and swine, which
Mr.. Bryan would do we'll to look

Does the American voter
want free silver and free lunch
counters!
The Bryan wing of Democ-
racy is intended to make the
American eagle sore.
-Tillman' pichfork was laid
away at the close of harvest. We
ought to be thankful for that.
Bryan is factor in the
campaign, but the people are not
going to regard him as benefac
tor.
-Sewall has contributed to
the campaign fund and Watson
keeps contributing to the cam
paign literature.
-Sewall's check for $40, 900
will weigh lightly against the
checks the Bryan idea is meeting
all over the country.
Cheap money has always
and everywhere proved a dear ex-
pertinent. The price of folly is
suffering and repentance.
Mr.. Bryan has capacious
mouth, to be sure, but the Ameri-
can producer is chiefly interested
in the consumers mouth.
in 1892 the Democrats prom
ised us the markets of the world.
A cog slipped, however, and they
gave the world our markets.
If the boy orator would like
to see a crowd that is really i'm
mense, he should take train fol
Canton, Ohio, one of these fine
days.
Men can be held up witt
the revolver and with the ballot
box, but the American people viii
never consent to the use of either
method.
The Bryanites are claiming
everything they can not carry, ant
in recognition of their industry il
may be said it keeps them pretty
busy.
--Repudiation will prevail a
the polls on November 3, but i
will be reputation of the fre'
trade and mismanagement of th'
present national administration.
An editor with a pagan in
difference toward the dead ha
called Altgeld the ''RObespierre o
Illinois," Were this campaign tt
continue much longer, there would
be no morals left.
The Post-Dispatch grow
indignant over ex-President Har
rison's fees as corporation law
yer. 1t seems to forget Bryan
used to earn all his money tina
way till he struck worse job il
politics.
Old Judge Bryan was
