THE CALL SPEAKS FOR ALL.
Purchase home goods.
Remember California products.
Business like charity should begin at
home.
Charter-making can afford to go slow
for time.
The revival is rapidly converting the
discontented.
There is evidently new era of railroad
building in sight
Third street should be improved by the
time the Coast road is completed.
Advertise your novelties in THE CALL if
you wish the people to call for them.
Keep your mind on the Assessors con-
vention. Tax reform is big subject.
Olney has chance to make ten-strike
on the Cuban question before he goes out
of office.
AS our miners furnish us with our gold
service they deserve share of the Cabinet
pudding.
Whatever the gold in the banks may do,
that in the mountains will have to come
out of its hiding place.
Working for living won't be such a
hard struggle for existence in this country
as it has been for the Last three years.
If you are looking for boom you will
be disappointed, but you can count on
steady improvement in all lines of busi-
ness.
There will be fewer free soup kitchens
this winter than for several years past. but
there will be more open fac tories and bet
ter wages.
Although it requires timber to make q
Cabinet, not single statesman takes to
the woods when Cabinet construction is
talked about.
There will be more commercial travellers
on the road this fall than in any similar
season for the last three years, SO be ready
with your orders.
The capital now coming out of hiding
will find no lack of opportunity for profit
able investment. California alone can
take millions of it.
Chicago has just held convocation of
mothers to consider the training of chill
dren, and there seems TO have been no
question Of the need of it.
The business revival will give the coun.
try all the shaking up it needs in these
days and professional agitators may as
well make up their mouths to be quiet.
Chicago is straining herself to get the
finest theater in the country, and appar-
emily for no other reason than to have the
right to call herself 1.-THE Paris of Amer
ica.''
The prospects of railroad extension are
among the most encouraging features OF
the present outlook, and fortunately they
are in sight of almost every section of the
State.
The man who spends any considerable
portion of his time trying to guess the
makeup of McKinley's Cabinet must be q
very eager politician or else he has very
little to do.
The Canadians are talking of adopting a
flag of their own, and 1T may be a mani
.festation of desire for independence, but
as the favored design for the banner is
blazoned with a crown it does not look
much like it.
McKinley's victory must be estimated
not by the vote of the Electoral College,
but by the vote of the people. His ma
lority in the college will not be unusually
large, but his popular majority was some
thing overwhelming.
Perhaps never before in it's history wa,
the world so completely at peace as at
present. The only struggle now going on
which can be called a war is that which
Spain is waging against Cuba, and that is
more like quarrel than fight.
The largest majority ever given to can
didate for Congress was that received in
Pennsylvania by Jim Young, the noted
newspaper man, and now political parties
that wish to put up sure winners will
know from what class TO take them.
st. Louis is talking OF removing her
famous convention hall to the suburbs for
use as a cattle-show building. and it is
just such treatment OF historic structures
that justifies Chicago IN mocking at st.
Louis culture. Chicago herself would
have kept the building where it is and
used it as a pork packing establishment
If the free-silver Republicans will vote
for protective tariff and the conservative
Democrats will vote for sound money the
next Senate will have clear sailing before
it, but if the free-trade and free silver men
