those countries. Under that treaty we
were exporting annually $3.50, 900 barrels
of -four, equal to 100000 bushels of
wheat, and since the passage OF the Will
son bill nine-tenths of this trade has been
lost. 1t is not difficult to discover one of
the main reasons why the price of wheat
has declined to a point at which it cannot
be proftably produced in California.
tt is the duty of the California Repub-
licans in the State Convention to demand
such reciprocity at the hands of the Ma
tional Convention as will enable all kinds
of farmers in California to enjoy the bene-
fits of the superb advantages with which
nature has endowed them. This demand
can be made effectively in only one way,
and that is to send unpledged delegates to
st. Louis with instructions to support such
a platform ana such candidate for Presi-
dent as will insure reciprocity in the in
terest of California farmers.

SAN PRANOIsO0's FUTURE.

The principal reason why San Francisco
is not to the Pacific Coast country of
North and South America and to the ORR
ent what New York is to the Atlantic
Coast region and to Europe is because San
Francisco has not the. necessary water
transportation facilities to make trade in
terchanges. If San Francisco had a mer-
chant marine there would be no question
about her crowding New York in popula-
ton, in wealth and in volume of business
in the near future, and in this connection
let US say that next to winning in the bat
tie for the dollars of our daddies" our
delegates to the st. Louis Convention
should return with satisfying assurance
that the next administration, which will
be Republican, of course, will warmly
favor encouraging ocean freight-carriers,
and push the Nicaragua canal project.
The importance to San Francisco, to
California and to the entire Pacific Coast
country of having adequate water craft
facilities to meet the trade requirements
OF the countries naturally tributary to this
center of commerce and industry is so
great that every Californian should make

MARTIN KELLY.

Martin Kelly, the political outcast and
renegade; Martin Kelly, who openly con-
spired with Buckley and Rainey to defeat
Morris M. Estee for Governor of Califor-
mia and shamelessly boasted of his ex-
ploit; Martin Kelly, who was driven out
of the Republican party for his duplicity,
and whose name is associated with every
disreputable transaction connected with
boss politics in San Francisco, now aspires
to regain the power which he so openly
abused and to plunge the Republican
party in California into the disgrace
which it is now making so strenuous an
effort to avert.
Republicans of California, this is the
man who will go before you at Sacramento
and, by assuming to advocate the interests
of Mckinley and protection, seek to bam-
boozle the country delegates and make
them the tools for placing the party ma
chinery in his hands. This is the man
who will buttonhole end wheedle all the
delegates who may deign to listen, and by
trading on McKinley's popularity in the
interior make a desperate effort to fasten
his influence on the party. His preten-
sions of regard for Mckinley and protec-
tion are sham of the baldest order.
Adhesion to any principle except one
which will give him power to manipulate
and debauch the party is impossible with
him. This is a warning to the country
delegates-the Republicans of the bay
region are familiar with his career, his
character and his purposes. 1t is time for
the Republicans of California, once and
for all. to make Martin Kelly stand aside
and no longer i'm pede the onward march
of the party or bring disgrace upon the
fair name of California.

CALIFORNIA; ARID LANDS.

1t Is not sufficient for California's needs
that private capital is willing to establish
irrigation works here and there. These
enterprises, however com mendable, are
not only limited in extent, but are able to
charge their own prices for water and are
quite different from irrigation plants
growing out of the cooperation of land
owners enjoying the use of the water at
cost. VI course, no one will question the
need OF irrigation in California or attempt
to decry the great additional value which
1t gives to the soil. We have had bitter
experience with our endeavors to make
laws providing for this need. Our Federal
courts, taking the English common law
as their basis in the absence of American
National laws framed to meet necessities
peculiar to California and foreign to Eng
land, have assailed our State laws, threat
ened the validity of our irrigation bonds,
destroyed the confidence of capitalists in
their value and set back the States prog
ress to primitive times. We cannot have
irrigation without Congressional support,
and without irrigation it will be impossi-
bic to develop the State to its full capacity.
Ii the Republicans of California send a
Delegation to the st. Louis Convention
pledged to some Presidential candidate
there will be no reason to hope that the
National Convention will make the irriga-
ton OF arid lands policy of the party.
Even resolution by the State Convention
could not be expected to carry weight.
The only way to secure the desired end is
to send unpledged delegates to the Ma
tional Convention. Such delegates will be
in position to demand that the candidate
receiving their support must be pledged to
advance the cause OF irrigation in the

WOMAN SUFFRAGE.

Strictly speaking, woman suffrage is not
mere question of the political equality of
man and woman. but of right and justice.
The spirit of the question is whether a
class of citizens in name, who, in intelli-
gence, comprehension of the principles of
the government and loyalty to the best in
terests OF the country, are fully on parity
with other members of the commonwealth,
shall be enfranchised that they may par
ticipate in the work of weaving broader
and better threads in and through the
political and economic fabric of the Nation.
The opposition to the comforting full
citizenship upon woman is not based other
than upon foolish sentiment and blind
prejudice. 1t would be a strange and un-
natural innovation, they say, which is
partially true. for the strength of national
and individual progress comes of profiting
to-day by the experience of yesterday by
innovation. Sufficient unto the day is the
blindness and stupidity thereof If it be
politically wrong and socially unhealthy
to make innovations then men folk should
never have departed from the fashion of
old Father Grimes and continue to ''button
up his coat all down before"
There is another class of objectors who
say it would be very inconsistent to make
such departure from time-honored Gus
toms as the enfranchisement of woman
would oblige. To such we say, with EN-
erson, that ga foolish consistency is the
hobgoblin of little minds, adored by little
statesmen and philosophers and divines";
and with Lowell, that "The foolish and
the dead never change their opinions"
There is still another class of objectors
to woman suffrage who concentrate the
whole of their argument in one sentence
81 have only contempt for the move
ment." To such we say, with Stopford
Brooke: Contempt sees nothing, and,
seeing nothing, has no material for
thought; and with an old Spanish
proverb: ga handful OF common-sense is
worth bushel of learning"
If objectors to conferring full citizenship
upon woman would quit the embrace of
foolish consistency and feed their con-
tempt on common-sense they would come
to see that woman is now an independent
wage-earner in every line of literature and
OF the professions and in all the channels
of commerce; that she accumulates prop
erty in her own right, and that she keeps
even with man in every field of employ
ment in which they are competitors.
Therefore, can, could or would anything
but big chunks of the remnants of the
stupid and blind prejudice of 100 years ago
attempt to obstruct her way to the enjoy
ment of the same political freedom and
advantages that man enjoys? THE CALL

PROTECTION FOR CALIFORNIA

If there is single farmer in California
who has not suffered under Democratic
free trade and whose condition could not
be greatly improved by protective tariff
he is singular departure from the aver
age. The raisin-growers of Fresno are
aware how their industry has been virtu-
ally destroyed by the Democratic reduc-
ton of their protection, and the fact that
in consequence they have been compelled
to compete with the pauper-labor pro-
ducers of Spain. Our olive growers are
well aware of the long years that must
elapse before their trees come into prolific
bearing; that during all these years, and,
when the trees come into bearing, they
must pay 81 so to So so day for labor,
against the 40 t o 20 cents day paid in
Spain and Italy; that America is import
ing 100000 gallons of oil a year, to say
nothing of olives; that California is the
only State producing these articles and
that they are far superior to those which
we import. and that great results would
flow from high protection. Grain-growers,
lumbermen, wool producers, wine-makers
and all others have a deep interest in
protective tariff that will enable Califor-
mans to enjoy the benefits to which their
unique position entities them.
Unless California sends an unpledged
delegation to the National Convention it
would be folly to hope that the special
needs of this remote and Misunderstood
State would receive proper consideration.
An unpledged delegation, caring more for
the interests of California than for any
Presidential candidates political ambition.
would be in perfet condition to demand
recognition as condition OF support.
