The political ball-protection for Cali
fornia industries as against the money is
sue-which THE CALL started a-rolling,
is gaining new impetus daily. Each
day brings fresh and convincing evil
oence of the strong sentiment in
favor of a protective tariff as the issue
in this State rather than silver and
gold. Democrats who voted for the
low-tariff administration are outspoken In
their views and are as ready in the multi
plying of illustrations bearing on the
comparative effects of the Mckinley and
Wilson bills as are the members OF the
protection party.
"If we can make the laboring classes
understand that the manufacturing in
dustries must be protected to insure them
steady employment at good wages" say
the representative manufacturers, I'VE
can re-estabIish the protective policy. That
is where the hard work has got to be
done"
Educate the idea that free silver means
pockets lined with money out of the heads
of the working classes" say the whole
salers and importers, ''and they will give
us protection and live better themselves
the more profitable is business generally
the easier lot will be that OF the laborer. F"
And so it goes. Example after example
is furnished by the several branches of
trade and industrial departments showing
Canfornia's extreme need for protection.
The most indifferent political reasoner is
compelled to admit that the industries of
the State have suffered under the tariff
policy OF the Democratic administration.
As one noIitical th ink pr exnresSed il Cali
fornia is made to suffer that the East may
prosper in many instances oy the
European manufacturers using the State
for dumping aground when the Eastern
markets have an extra surplus. Tariff is
the ONLY remedy

California italian Paste Company.
Editor Call: In reply to your query as to
which of the two the tariff or the money
question, is considered by the manufacturers
of Italian pastes in this country 10 be of more
Importance, we will state that the money
question has never been considered factor in
the increase or decrease OF our business
What effect change of standard may have
in the future we are not prepared to discuss.
We do know, however, that since the Wilson
tariff became law the number of factories
in our line in the United States has decreased,
the number OF men employed in the remain
ing factories has decreased and the output
has decreased at least one-third, while the
amount OF imports has increased more than
This article of food is one of the cheapest of
tarfnaceous foods, SO palatable and OF such
health-producing properties that 1t is no longer
considered luxury, but staple, and can be
found on the table of the poor as well the
rich. We cannot therefore attribute the de-
preston in our business to hard times. There
Is only one enemy we can point the hnger to
and that is the tariff Previous to the Wilson
law we enjoyed protective duty of cents
per pound. This was sufficient to offset the
difference IN the cost of labor between this
country and Europe. The Wilson bill took off
this specific duty and substituted an ad
valorem OF 20 per cent. Whether this ad va
depends en- ntirely on the elacticity of conscience
OF the European merchant who makes oath
De1Ore the American COnSul as 10 the original
cost of his merchandise. The Importance and
extent of this industry throughout the United
States is probably little known. There are
about 800 manufactures OF Italian paste in
this country, giving employment to about
1000 men, mostly heads of families, who re-
ceive on an average So 25 per day.
The raw material is manufactured out of
wheat raised in this country, it is wrapped in
paper made in this country and packed in
boxes of home manufacture. You can there
fore see how any legislation affecting us affects
as well the farmer, the paper manufacturer,
the box-maker@ and the lum mber-dealer. That
we need protection badly can be easily under
stood when we assert that the labor for which
we pay So 25 per day in this country can be
easily obtained In Europe for 40 cents. AS al
ready stated about 1000 families or 20, 900 peo-
pie are dependent on this industry in the
United States, to say nothing of the capital
invested Whether this should be matter of
concern TO our lariff-makers the future will
tell. Yours respectfully,
THE CALIFORNIA ITALIAN PASTE COMPANY.

e. GARNER & Co.

This firm deals extensively in native
wines, and also does some importing
''The wine industry is part of California
life," said Mr.. GARNER, land its develop
ment and prosperity depend on our
ability to place our wines on sale in the
Eastern markets in competition with the
imported goods from France, Germany
and Italy. The growers are the ones
chiefly interested in a protective tariff
The middlemen who handle the product
OF the vineyards and VINE presses are not
so vitally affected. OF course there would
be more money in their business if the
industry was prosperous along all lines,
but the grower and wine-maker have no
way in which to save themselves.
If the merchants can't handle the wine
at a profit they cannot afford to pay the
grower end maker what the product is
worth. We are all at the mercy of the
foreign com petitor, so long as the tariff
laws are such that he can lay his goods in
the Eastern market at price less than we
can afford to grow the grapes for. There
are not few vineyards in the State that
have been dug up within the last two
years. Our land and labor are too valu-
able for man TO do anything but lose
money in raising grapes at $6 or 81 ton.
If the farmers do not appreciate the bear
ing which the logic of such cold facts has
on the tariff question and its importance
as an issue to California, nothing else can
possibly convince them. Protection means
the very life of our industries and the
prosperity of our people"
The San Francisco call., 1896-07-04
A. ID. Spearman.

"If the present condition of business on
the Pacific Coast is not enough to convince
the voter OF average Intelligence that tariff
is the prime issue in California" said Mr..
Spearman when his attention was called
to the position taken by The CALL, "then
there is little hope for relief from the bal
Iot-box''
Mr.. Spearman is at the head OF one of
the leading woolen-mill agencies on the
Pacific Coast.
California is in greater need of protec-
tior, perhaps than any other part of the
United States. Our manufacturing in
dustries are at the mercy of the Eastern as
well as the European manufacturer. This
may seem strange until one takes into con-
sideration that California is a dumping
ground. 1t may not be generally under
stood, but it is the indisputable fact just
the same, that the manufacturers of Europe
protect the import rs of the East and the
principal wholesalers in the big trade
centers the other side of the Rocky Noun
tains at the expense of the West.
when there is threatening surplus on
hand 1t is dumped in here. Our so-called
wholesale houses, under these circum-
stances, become nothing but peddling
auction-houses. The money question is of
great Importance to us in one wayne
want distributing centers. But not as a
political issue is it of importance to this
coast. We want manufacturing plants
that will put several thousand dollars in
circulation monthly. That cannot be
done, though. unless we can esta blish and
operate such plants under favorable tariff
auspices. Protection for California is
vital. How any man of sound judgment
and good reasoning powers can fail to see
1t is beyond my comprehension. l be-
leve protection will be really the issue in
the East.
'ar. Knight of the MarysviUe Woolen-
mills, who was delegate to the st. Louis
convention, dropped in to see me the other
day, and during the course of our friendly
confab on politics he gave it as his belief
that protection would be the real issue in
the East and not silver. There has been
great hue and cry raised about silver,
he said, but we will find that the main
issue is the tariff after ALL and 1 am pre-
pared to believe that he is about right. At
all events our people cannot close their
eyes to the grave need of the local indus
tries for protection"

Christening 2 a Shin.

Some English shipbuilders propose to
abandon the wine-christening ceremonies
at future launching of vessels, but will
substitute for it another idea Hereafter,
instead of breaking the bottle of cham
pagne on the vessels nose the lady will
let loose a cageful of swift birds, which
will fly in all directions as the ship begins
to move, typifying the diverse nature of
commerce. The idea, which is borrowed
from the Japanese, teaches liberty and
economy.
The San Francisco call., 1896-07-04
Leege g. Mills.

This is the leading chickory manufac-
tory on the coast and the firm is extern
siyely engaged in the importation of teas,
coffees, etc. Thomas Haskins, the junior
member of the firm. said yesterday: at
is most obvious that CALIFORNIA; s vital in
terests are centered in her industries.
That means protection. The tariff is the
issue in this State ahead of all others, and
the voters will see it before the campaign
is half over. AS a forcible illustration,
take the article of chlckory. With pro-
tective tariff it might become one of the
leading products of the country. Hun
dreds of thousands of dollars would be in
vested in the growing and preparation of
the weed and the money that is sent out
of the country annually would be kept at
home. There was some chickory grown
in New Jersey, but the importation of the
dried weed ready for grinding, at a low
price, made it i'm possible for the growers
to continue the production.
''The climate and soil of California are
adapted to the luxurious growth of the
weed, and if there was tariff protection it
would be one of the most profitable de-
partments of agriculture in the State.
While 1 am willing to concede that the
tariff is the prime issue in California, and
has vital connection with our industrial
prosperity, / still believe we are interested
in the finance question. To make nv
meaning clear, l need but refer to the sill
yer mines on our. east. When they were
in full operation the cities and towns were
we'll populated. Buildings were in con-
slant course of construction, and the
lively business of the times gave us a mar
ket for all our natural products and manu-
factures. Those markets are closed 10 us
now because the mines are closed. This is
a strong reason why we should be inter-
ested in silver on account of the States en-
gagged in its production, though the tariff
aud protection of our local industries
come first and are naturally the prime

In these houses men and women and
