Rev. W. r. Goodwin sends the following
communication TO THE CALL:
To the Editor Of the San Francisco CdII-sIR:
Mr.. p c. Yorke, who mistakes epithets for
arguments and whose fiuidity OF language Is
only equaled by his tenuity of thought, turns
aside Tor a moment in his food of words TO
allude TO me.
Possibly Mexico was not settled by the best
blood OF Spain. She was colonlZed hundred
years before Massachusetts, and by Spaniards
of such stock Cervantes, Cortez, Pizarro,
Colum bus, Cordova, &imineS and Isabella. If
that was not good blood, what was it? Massa-
Chusetts was settled by poor Puritans. Mexico
has rich soil, adapted TO the production of
everything that grows out OF the earth, and
possessing every metal used by man, while
Massachusetts has sterile soil, uncongenial
climate, and no articles of transportation save
ice and rock. Mexico has buD-hghts, igno-
rance. superstition vice and utter degradation.
Massachusetts has free schools, intelligence,
wealth and worldwide influence.
But MI. Norke is not expected TO know these
things. He is better acquainted with the dark
ages, with papal bulls and with the literature
OF the musty past. His tongue and pen are
practical proofs that perpetual motion is pos
that windmill in motion that will probably
continue until the machinery is worn ont.
Mr. Yorke asks me If I know what is the per-
centage OF pure Indian blood and mixed blood
in the Mexican population of to-day? Does he
know how much Indian blood is in the popula-
ton OF Massachusetts Does he know the
composition OF the green cheese that is said to
be in the moon? Is he a Yankee or a Jesuit
when he goes to acting the inquisitOr? He
ought TO know that Mexico is Romanlst and
Massachusetts is Protestant.
I hope the readers of THE CALL Will not be
N ade TO suffer at the hands of Mr.. Yorke by an
octave "postscriptupl'' in reply to this Yours
truly, w. K. GOODWIN.

FRESNO ORANGES.
DIR. e. C. Dunn States Finer Fruit Can
Be Raised Th ere Than in Southern
California

DR.. Z. G. Dunn, one of the leading ply
sicians OF Fresno, and a member of the
Joint committee of ten consisting of dele
gates from the Chamber of Commerce and
the Hundred Thousand Club, said last
evening while speaking of the prosperous
condition of things in and about that city:
1.-The people of Fresno have learned a
great deal during the citrus fair held there
We find that we can raise as good oranges
as are raised in Southern California Not
only as good, but we can place them on
the market at least four days earlier than
the Southern fruit. The orange of the
southern part of the State is nearly always
scale-covered, but our fruit is entirely free
from scale.
1.-The citrus fair has proved a remark
able success, far beyond the ideas of the
promoters. 1t has been surprise to the
people of Fresno as well as source of ed
ucation to them. There is no question in
the world but that the citrus fair has come
to stay.
1--WE believe from the experience of the
past few years that the raisin industry
will be a success, which at present it must
be confessed il Is not.
1.-The introduction of electric power into
the city Will prove potent factor in in
creasing the city's importance. One COM
pany that has the matter in hand expects
to furnish all the illuminating for the city,
and it will only be short time before the
street cars will obtain their motive power
from the same source.
''The poles are being put in now and by
the latter end of this month everything
will been in working order for transmit
ting power.
"The JOINT committee OF ten in the in
terests OF the Valley road has purchased
already over $4,000 worth of property for

Iatlons with the railroad board of directors
have been very harmonious and the feeling
is widespread that the road is bona-fide
competition and that no danger exists of
the Southern Pacific's ever possessing it."

New YORK, Jan. 28.-A special to
The World from Havana, Cuba, says
the plan of campaign adopted by the
commander-in.chief of the Spanish
forces now in Cuba has been divulgot
General Campos established what be-
came known as .'the wall Of men, He
distributed. 2 large number of Spanish
troops in such. q manner that they prac-
tically formed solid line from coast to
coast. His line. began in the north,
about five miles west of Havana. and
extended south to the Bay of Mata-
mano. Gomez and Maceo not only sue
ceeded in crossing Campos' line, but
recrossed it several times, and Gomez
and Maceo separated west of it two
weeks ago. Maceo remained in Pinar
del Rio province, doing about as he
pleased, while Gomez invaded Havana
province again, and at one time camped
within Is miles of the capital of Cuba.
Good idea But Poorly Executed.
Nevertheless, General Marin and
General Pando are convinced that the
idea Of the wall Of men is a good one,
but the wall Of men is in the wrong
place-too far west. It has been de.
cided, therefore, to have a strong wall
along the railroad. Thousands of troops
are stationed along the line and small
fortresses have been erected near each
station. A large number of armored
cars have been ordered. They are to
be box cars to be protected by boiler
iron. At either end of the cars will be
Hotchkiss revolving cannon, howitzers
or Calling guns. These cars are to be
placed between the railway stations.
Say Naceo Cannot Escape.
e e At least 5000 troops will be kept con-
stantly moving over the line. Maceo
and his com mand, the Spanish generals
say, cannot escape.
If Maceo tries to go east, he will run
up against new wall of men, much
stronger than the one he broke through
some weeks ago. If he tries to escape
west, the Spanish generals argue that
he will have to march to the sea, where
his only chance to get away will be in
boats. Spanish warships have been
stationed all along the coast.
