SAN BERNARDlNO. April 9.-The pub
lication in The HERALD of the statement
that bill is before congress which, will
permit the forest reservations to be thrown

dino reservation, and this afternoon the
following petition, numerously signed, was
telegraphed TO the capitol:
To Senators s. M. White and George G.
Perkins:
If the San Bernardino forest reservation
did contain land adapted to agriculture,
land it does mott, still considering the COM
mon interests of the valley, which is wholly
dependent upon it for water for both irri
cation and domestic use, it should not he
diverted from it's present purpose. ANY
interference with it would be disastrous to
the future growth and reduce present cul-
tivation. We arc not afraid OF the pro-
posed test If it can he made openly, and We
can be heard, but we deprecate any dis
turbance of the present status. Please see
that we are amply protected in pending
legislation relating to forest reserve.
THE CANAIGRE ENTERPRISE
The arrest of John H. Carruthers in Chi
cago for alleged crookedness in connection
with the canaigre syndicate enterprise
created some interest here. on account OF
the fact that it is this same syndicate
which proposes to plant 5000 acres to
canaigre at Rialto. r. U. G. Wilson of
Los Angeles. who represents the canaigre
people in California. was in town, and
while he has had no direct word from
Carruthers, he knows enough OF the circuIn-
stances to be familiar with the reasons for
this latest development.
Mr.. Wilson says that Beasley and other
Philadelphia parties were originally con-
nected with the enterprise. Carruthers
going there with the purpose OF floating
some of the bonds. Beasley became con-
nected with the promoting of the finances
of the enterprise, which was then known
as the Chicago Canaigre company.
Subsequently the English people who
were furnishing the money demanded that
a new company be formed, which was done,
it being known as the Anglo American
CaDaigre company. This left Beasley out.
and Wilson says he is making trouble be-
cause he lost certain commissions, and is
trying to force CarrutEers and. the syndi-
cate to pay him these accounts. Mr.. VIII
son says the prosecution is wholly mali
cious and he is sure it will result III
nothing.

sentatlves In national convention, appeal
ing for the popular and historical justif-
cation Of their claims to the matchless
achievements Of the 80 years Of Republl-
can rule, earnestly and confidently ad-
dress themselves to the awakened intelli-
gence experience md conscience Of their
countrymen in the following declaration
of facts and principles: For the first time
since the civil war the American people
have witnessed the calamitous conse-
quences Of full and unrestricted Demo-
cratic control Of the government. 1t has
been a record Of unparalleled lncepaclty,
dishonor and disaster. In administrative
management it has ruthlessly sacrificed
indispensable revenue. entailed M lncreas-
ing deficit. eked out ordinary current e1-
penses with borrowed money, piled up the
public debt by $2G2, ,CO0,0Oj in time OF
peace, forced an adverse balance Of trade,
kept perpetual menace hanging over the
redemption fund. pawned American cred1t
to alien syndicates and reversed all the
measures and results of successful he
publican rule. In the broad effect of its
policy it has precipitated panic, bllGhted
industry and trade with prolonged de-
preston, closed factories. reduced work
and wages, halted enterprise and crippled
American production while stimulating
foreign production for the American mar
ket. Every consideration OF pubic satety
and individual interest demands that the
government shall be rescued from the
hands of those who have shown Them
selves incapable to conduct it without dis
aster at home and dishonor abroad, and
shall be restored to the party which. for
80 years, administered it with unequaled
success and prosperity. And in this con-
nection we heartily indorse the wisdC l,
patriotism and the success Of the admin
istration of President Harrison.
TarIr-We renew and emphasize our al
legiance to the policy Of protection as e
bulwark of American industrial indepen-
dence and the foundation of American de-
velopment and prosperity. This true
American policy taxes foreign products
and encourages home industry; it puts
the burden OF revenue on foreign Root 8;
it secures tho American market for che

countries more than 81, ,00O, ,OOO 600 annu-

pledge ourselves to promote, and until

When the applause which greeted the
announcement that the nomination had
been made unanimous had subsided,
Mr.. Lodge moved to proceed to the eieo-

I. o. Walker of Virginia, negro, put
in nomination his fellow delegate

The balloting for vice president ther
began. The call had proceeded only as
far as South Dakota when it became
evident that Hobart had been nomi

side of the farm and makes the American
farmer less dependent on foreign demand

POUNDS the strength of all on the strength
of each. In its reasonable application 1T
Is Just, fair and impartial, equally op-
posed to foreign control. and 'mestlc

individual favoritism. We denounce the
present Democratic tariff as sectional, in
furious to the public credit and destruc.
tive to business enterprise. We demand
such an equitable tariff on foreign inn
ports which come into competition with
American products as will not only fur
nish adequate revenue for the necessary
expenses of the government, but will pro-
tect American labor from degradation to
the wage level Of other lands. We are not
pledged to any particular schedules. The
question of rates Is a practical question
to be governed by the conditions of the
time and Of production. the ruling and

and industry. The country demands q
right settlement, and then 1t wants rest.
Reciprocity-We believe the repeal of
the reciprocity arrangements negotiated
by the last Republican administrator
was a national calamity, and we demand
their renewal and extension on such terms
as will equalize our trade with other ma
tions; remove the restrictions which now
obstruct the sale of American products in
the ports Of other countries. and secure
enlarged markets for the products OF our
farms. forests and factories. Protection
and reciprocity are twin measures OF Re-
publican policy and 60 hand in hand.
Democratic rule has recklessly struck
down both. and both must be re-estab-
lished. Protection for what we produce;
free admission of the necessaries of life
which we do not produce; reciprocal agree

markets for us in return for our open
market to others. Protection builds up
