AT CASTLE GARDEN.
There is Where Protection to Our
Institutions Should Begin.

From the Stockton independently
Congressman Johnsons platform on
protection at Castle Garden is an i'm
provement on the National Republican
platform that will meet the most COR
dial approval. In his speech to the
convention that renominated him Mr..
Johnson said:
II believe that protection is the main
issue-protection not merely to the fac
tory, not merely to the product of labor,
but protection to the laborer; protection
to law; protection to liberty protection
to homes; protection to man himself
believe that protection to our institu-
tions should commence at Castle Gar
den. 1 believe that we should cast off
the gang-plank at Castle Garden and
thereby protect the 1aborers of the
United States"
The national platform only declares
for the enforcement and extension of
the immigration laws SO as to exclude
those who cannot read and write, and
this part of the Republican declaration
of principles falls short of satisfying
the workingmen in any party. Mr..
Johnsons declaration is full and COM
plete and every Republican Congress
equally explicit on the subject. The
workingmen who see the slovenly way
in which the immigration laws of
the country have been administered but
hardly enforced, have been embittered
at the incoming of barbarian, half-bar-
barian and imperfectly civilized people
from Europe, to say nothing of Asia,
and have long demanded more re-
strictions on immigration. The division
Of their forces between several parties
has left them without the power to
compel any one party to accede to their
demands, but Mr.. Johnson, not waiting
for a demand had volunteered to
champion their cause and should be
warmly supported in SO doing. To draw
the line at those who can read and
write is not sufficient. Some of the most
mischievous of those who stir up an
archy and attempt to overthrow Ameri-
can institutions not only read and write,
but print also. The ruf1ianly men who
crowd out Americans in the mines and
factories in the East are generally able
to read if not to write, yet they live like
brutes and debase American labor. De-
clarations like Mr.. Johnson's should be
so encouraged that more candidates for
Congress, if not most of them, would
before the campaign closes make like
declarations, for protection can never
be complete until Mr.. Johnson's princi-
pie is embodied in a law and rigidly en-
forced.

Was Emerson accurate when he said
that he had forgotten the books he had
read? Did he not rather mean that he
may have forgotten some titles of books
that had not helped him? Is it posi-
BILE for any one to forget the book that
helps him? Or, for the matter of that.
is it possible to forget any book one
reads. whether it helps one or not? 1t
must make some impression upon the
mind, an ineffacable one, though we
may not be able later to relate it to a.
distinct title or the memory of a time
and text. But such q thing as for
getting wholly the books one reads is
absurd. Yet Emerson in the abund-
ance Of his self regard declared that it
was true In his case But he admitted
that while he had forgotten the books
they had helped to make him, as had
the dinners he had eaten and forgotten.
so that the philosopher hedged and
saved himself from being ridiculous.

The Marysville Appear says:

The Record-Union" cites the killing
of Sheriff Douglass as an object lesson
IN behalf of the creation of a State
Constabulary. There are some good
reasons for such a police service, and
again there are others to prove that it
would not be effective.
Well, give US the Others" 1t is out
of debate, and dealing in facts pro and
con that truth is evolved and the best
policy is arrived at. Now, advance
your reasons against State Constab-
ulary, and for every one presented that
is sound and unanswerable you shall
have full and ample credit-but we ap-
prehend that none such can be ad-
yanced

them, no matter what his estate, is to
argue that there is not honest desire for
prosperity and the welfare Of the homes
of the Nation; that the people of Cali
fornia are incapable of reasoning or of
assuming the judicial attitude; that
they are intolerant and unworthy of
the privileges of the citizenship they en-
joy.
We believe that the necessary think
ers capable of addressing the people can
be secured, and that ten or twelve such
meetings can be held with the largest
profit to the people. The influence of
these gatherings, divested of party
bias and suspicion, free from the sug-
gestion of hire and partisanship,
stripped of personal ambition and sell
fish ends, will be of the highest and
broadest character. They will tend to
lift the people out of the grooves of pre-
judice, to broaden their methods OF
thought, to place them in the attitude of
citizen judges invested with a sovef-
eighty from which there is no appeal.
These meetings will conserve tolera-
ton, engender kindly feeling, command
respect for thought and reason, and in
spire men with patriotic purpose. 1t is
to be hoped, therefore, that the scheme
will be carried out, and that intellectual
tournaments may from this time for
ward become features of the annual
State exposition, and thus lift 1t to still
higher plane and engage in its interest
still more of the regard and approving
thought of the people.

SMALL SAVINGS.

1t would be well for those who in
dulge in vituperative expression about
capital and the grasp of the mort
gagee upon the throat of the borrower
to examine into the facts. They Will
ascertain that the creditor class" in
istic class. Indeed, the official statis-
tics show that by far the largest cred
itors are the owners of small savings,
while the great capitalists have their
money invested in large enterprises,
railroads, ship lines, steamers, facto-
ries and mines. Indeed, it is verify
that the majority of banking capital
used for purely lending purposes to the
people and not to large concerns is the
aggregation of the money of small de-
positors, and that such banks and COM
and mediums for these small depositors
and investors.
If the rich are growing richer and the
poor poorer, the bank statistics do not
show it, since the fact is that steadily
and without any interruption the de-
posits in savings banks and invest
ments in building and loan societies, in
mortgage and debenture companies by
small savings people have steadily
grown in number of depositors and in
volume of wealth.
Tn xx-ha 1ad "
ment, the savings bank deposits in the
United States were $500. .490, ,29S. In
1895, sixteen years later, the savings
bank deposits were 81, ,S44 ,357, 79S, an
increase of 129 per cent, while the ag-
gregate savings in building and loan
associations exceeded S750,000, 900, and
the sums Of small investors in life in
surance had increased by an enormous
percentage.
According to the Census Bureau re-
ports the premiums paid on life insur-
ance policies for the ten years ending
with 1889 amounted to SHOE ,937
alone, and it is the opinion of actuaries
of skill that seven-tenths of these pre-
MUM payers were men and women of
modest means. not capitalists in any
sense of the word.
In 1880 the life insurance policies ag-
gregated 667. $780, and just ten years
thereafter they aggregated 1851, ,295,
or 579.S7 per cent. of increase. The
industrial policies in 1880 were 40, 766,
but in 1890 they had increased to 3, ,296,-
356, or 6,e2371 per cent. of increase.
These figures exclude the fraternal
and other beneficiary and insurance So
cieties, which are almost wholly made
up Of wage earners and men of moder-
ate means and Of small savings own
ers, into which were paid in ten years,
between 1880 and 1890, nearly $50, ,OOO,-
OOo. There is excluded also the fra
ternal endowment orders, into which
were paid nearly $3,OOO,OOO, and there
is also excluded nearly $4,000, 900 paid
into Independent beneficiary societies
by the moderate savings owners.

the last trip of the steamer Three
Friends. The report states that while
operating with General Aguierre's
forces in the vicinity of Jaruco he was
captured, with five others, and bound
with cords.
After having credentials and valu-
ables taken from him, GOWN protested
against the outrage, stating that he
was newspaper correspondent and an
American citizen. This statement ap-
peared to have angered his captors and
sealed his death warrant, as they
hacked him to pieces with machetes.
The valuables taken are now said by
eye-witnesses to be in the possession Of
General Ochoa.
Young Gown was well and favorably
known here, where he has relatives.
He is also well connected in New York,

Hoods Sarsaparilla has achieved great
success in warding off sickness which, if
allowed to progress, would have under
mined the whole system and given disease
a stong foothold to cause much suffering
and even threaten death. Hoods Sarsa-
parilla has done all this and even more.
1t has been taken in thousands of cases
which were thought to be iucurable, and
after fair trial has effected wonderful
cures, bringing health, strength and joy
to the afflicted. Another important point
about Hoods Sarsaparilla is that its cures
are permanent, because they start from
the solid foundation of purified, vitalized
and enriched blood. But it is not what
we say but what Hoods Sarsaparilla does
that tells the story.
