place of the dark clouds Of depression
and stagnation


THE SAFEST.
Fruitvale Telegram: The Republican
party has always been the friend of pro-
lection and is the safest to trust to re-
store and manage protection, because ii
understands it, and sympathizes with
it's object and up-building of American
industries.
DUPLICATED POLICE GAZETTE y
Santa Cruz Sentinel: Imperceptible
possibly ON the part of parents, the
character of their children are being
formed by the literature daily taken into
the home. If the newspapers thus taken
are low, coarse, vulgar, profane or dot
ted over with Suggestive" words and
sentences of filth and witty uncleanness
the young and impressible must be tain
ted thereby. What father or mother OF
prudence took the Police Gazette
home when that grade of literature had
a standing in the community, but which
publication has been driven practically
out of existence by the unclean dailies
that maintain gazette departments, in
sertng therein the vilest stuff from the
vilest purlieus and dished up by the
vileSt writers.
THE ONLY EFFECT
Red Bluff Sentinel: The Democratic
declaration that all the protection the
American laborer needs is to bar cheap
laborers out of the country opens our
rich market to the products of cheap
Ia Dor in other countries. The only eff
feet of excluding the cheap laborer, un-
less at the same time the goods made by
cheap laborers in other countries are
made subject to adequate duties, will be
to build up industries in other countries
at the expense of our own industries
IN the one hundred and odd days that
intervenes between this date and the
election these things will be thought
over. Men will recall the long period
of almost uninterrupted prosperity
from the close of the war to the repeal
o. the Mckinley Tariff Act, and exam
inc into the conditions which prevailed
at the time. They will find that the
secret of prosperity III a great, half-de-
veloped nation like the United States
lies in the doing of cur own work.
FLIRTING AND SEDUCTION.
The Mail of Woodland: The Demo
Gratis are now flirting with the Populists
the Democrats protesting such great
love now that they wish to continue to
keep their noses in the public crib Will
the Populists allow themselves to be
thus Seduced?
THE REASON WHY.
Marysville Appeal. The reported
large decrease in the importations of
English goods tends TO prove the cor
rectness of the Republican theory that
under revenue there comes a time
when in consequence of the inability OF
the people to buy imported goods, Gus
toms duties fall off and the treasury
collapses, while under protective tariff
the people prosper and have money
to spend for foreign luxuries, and SC
pay more to the Government in the
form of duties on imports than they dc
when times are made hard by an anti
protective policy.
A QUESTION.
Bakersfield Californian: According tc
the Democrats the policy of protection
benefits only the wealthy and is an in
jury to the farmer and the working
man. How about the sheep owners
ruined by free trade and the immense
number of factories closed through the
same agency?
1T WILL NOT DO.
Yreka Journal: The Democracy Is
doing it's utmost to obscure the real
issue of the campaign now opening
by declaring that there will be no fur
ther advance to ward free trade, "as
our Republican friends insist upon de-
nominating it." That will not do; what
the people demand is a return to pro-
lection. They will not only have nc
further advance along the disastrous
path of the last few years, but will and
do insist upon the back track being
taken to protection.
