The CALL SPEAKS FOR ALL
The miners have the floor.
~
Golden oratory flows freely.
Everybody talks of golden prospects
now.
Expansion is good as rule, but let US
hope Grover will not try it on the coming
message.
Prosperity shines all over the State and
PROSTATE industries are picking them
selves up.
ST. Louis is just now the proudest city in
the Union. She is exulting in her first
horse show.
There is chance for the Dingley bill to
go through this winter. The Senate has
seen new light.
The Bryanite leaders are silent, but the
prophets have resumed business by pre-
dieting what will happen in 1900.
The country voted for prosperity and is
reaping the reward much sooner than
even the most sanguine expected.
You do not have to go East to find signs
of reviving industry. There are plenty OF
them right here IN San Francisco.
The mining industry is big enough to
have representative in the Cabinet, and
Congress ought to provide for one.
We have no Half-milIion Club TO lead Us
on just now. but all the same we will be
able to claim that figure in few years.
Not all the States voted for Mckinley,
but all are sending in reports OF expand

Ii Cleveland does not say something
about the Cuban question in his message
we shall know he is the same old Grover.
1t will not be charity but business that
will provide for the poor this winter, and
work and wages will be better than free
soup.
Send California novelties and dainties to
your Eastern friends during the holidays
and help to advertise the products of the
State.
From the present outlook for the m in
ing industry it would seem the days of
old. the days of gold, are about to return
again.
Business cannot revive too quickly nor
spread itself too fast. Winter is coming
and there are lots of good worklngmen out
of employment.
The interests of labor and capital are the
same, and the men who marched together
and voted together are now reaping the
benefits together.
The Valley road leads the way in COM
petition and other roads will follow if the
people are only prompt in supporting en-
terprise and providing rights of way.
The gold standard free-traders who are
asserting that the victory was not for pro-
lection afford another illustration of how
easily some men can fool themselves.
The proposed ordinances providing for
open food inspection stations viii be
generally approved by the people. We all
wish pure food as well as plenty OF it.
Chicago has a company that promises
her 90-cent gas, and vet she seems to re-
gard the promise itself as the only cheap
gas she wants and won't take stock in it.
There should be a good exhibit of Cali
fornia products at the Guatemalan exposi-
ton, for while the trade there may be
very great now it has the potency of vast
expansion.
The proposal of some of the fusion lead
ers to get rid of AItgeld and Tiilman may
be taken as proof they are willing to up>
set the old applicant and start out with
new one next time.
AS Salisbury seems disposed to accent
the decision of the United States on the
Venezuelan question we can hardly dis
pute his proposition that the controversy
is virtually settled.
We need not be surprised if we have
very large immigration of dramatic critics
from Germany this winter. Kaiser Will
liam has written play and threatens to
have it produced throughout the empire.
The world does not seem to have moved
much during our political campaign, and
now that we have time to look it over
again we see the old issues crises and
questions in much the same shape they
were three months ago.
New Jersey mosquitoes transported
across the ocean by the big steamers are
said to fourishing in London as if they
liked the climate, and it is probable Lon
don will soon have so many New York
peculiarities it won't be worth while to
make voyage to see it.
