pie approve the rates on sugar, and

In all these cases they insist that the

THE GRECIAN KING.
Los Angeles Herald: The King of
Greece is not Greek and has no more
right to sit on the throne of Greece
than he has to be President of the Unit
ed States. He is a foreign STRIPPING of
royalty imposed on Greece by foreign
intermeddling All along it has been
suspected that his heart was not in the
war, and that he only followed the pop
ular feeling in order to save his royal
dignity. He is a brother or a cousin
in some degree of every crowned in
competent and bungler in Europe, and
the sole wish of them, one and all, has
been to get Greece licked" He has
never discovered any ability of any
sort beyond that of being fairly amia-
bic and bearing with more or less dig
nifty the garbs of honor he never earn
ed nor won, but which were made a
present to him for no better reason
than that he was a Kings son.
HAWAIIAN TREATY.
Fresno County Enterprise: The alb
rogatiOn of the reciprocal treaty with
Hawaii is now occupying the attention
of those who are actively interested in
current affairs. The usual partisan ar
guments are doing service in many
quarters, clOuding judgment and pre-
venting a candid consideration of the
subject. Is it best for US to continue
the treaty-is it to the advantage of
us as Americans? That is the only
question 1t involves no partisan con-
sideration. Is there any reason why
the Hawaiian Republic should have
our market free for it's sugar ENJOYING
the same privilege of our markets for
its coolie made goods that our own tax
paying citizens have, and bringing.
without restriction, the product of peon
labor into competition with American
labor? The San Francisco Chamber
of Commerce says. Yes" But why?
Because of the Hawaiian trade? Our
exports TO the Hawaiian Islands
amount to between $1,000 900 and 81
U00,000 annually. The imports from
the islands amount to over $4,000
GOO, practically all sugar. We want
to make our own sugar. We want su-
gar factories in this valley. Hence we
want the treaty abrogated
MONEY IN CIRCULATION.
Nevada City Herald: People who as
sumed last fall that the United States
has not enough money will be interest
ed TO know that the money in circula-
tion to-day in the United States is
nearly S140, 100000 greater than a wear
ago. The treasury figures show the
circulation April /, 1897. to be 81. .669-

CUBA
Tulare Register: The news from Cuba
is no better than it was a week ago.
1t is reported that Weyler has con-
tinued his bloodthirsty policy of de-
stroying the lives, homes and crops of
those who plant and that one village
containing $50 people was annihilated
by his order-men, women and children
and that the sternest possible policy
will be pursued against the pacificos
in the future. On the other hand the
insurgents are using dynamite with
terrible consequences to the enemy
and manifest no disposition to termi-
nate the struggle. First and last since
the insurrectiOn began, nearly two
years ago, Spain has sent nearly 200. =
OOU officers and men to Cuba, and vet

How many men she now has there
ready for service is not known. but
the force outnumbers that of the in
surgents several times over and only
guerrilla warfare can be waged
against 1t, but the guerrilla warfare
has thus far been very effective and
its lasting qualities are phenomenal.
SUGAR BEET.

millions year in it, Colonel Sellers,
talking OF gold and pointing at the
mountain, said: There's millions in

ment is no joke.
ALTRUISTIC.
Los Angeles Express: One of the
most commendable altruistic move
ments of the time is the organization
of the Young Women's Christian AS
sociation. The young men of the
country have for years enjoyed the pro-
lection and fostering care of one of the
most perfect organizations the world
has ever known, and now the same
principles are being applied to the
guarding and Christian DEVELOPMENT of
young women, who are dependent nm
on themselves and are not encircled by
the care OF parents. The local society
has just secured more commodious
quarters, but there should be no ces
sation from the endeavor to secure a
well-appointed home. for the work of
the order. that should be its own prop
erty. If 1t is important to save and

ginning to ask the question, does 1t
pay? Opinions differ for while some
of the leading business men assert the
outgo is far more than the income from
the show, others say the results must
not be measured by the immediate
gains of the hotel and restaurant keep
ers, street cars and others, and that
through the fiesta the city receives a
great amount of valuable advertising
which it could get in no other way.
The Los Angeles Times is of this
opinion and figures out that 100000
would not purchase at regular adver-
tising rates the amount of newspaper
space which has been given to the
city and the fiesta in one week in the
newspapers of the United States New
ertheless, the mere debating of the
question in serious fashion indicates
that the fiesta enthusiasm has slacken-
ed for couple of years ago the bene-
fits We're taken for granted by every
one.
WAS IT JEALOUSY?
Oakland Tribune: There is probably
some jealousy in other cities regarding
the Los Angeles fiesta that might
cause unkind remarks. The Express"
however is surely to be believed when
it says this of its own festival:
Many women were drinking to ex-
cess, and late in the evening, or early
in the morning, not a few were to be
seen who were completely drunk OF
these perhaps a large number would
have been drunk any other night in the
year that the opportunity presented it
self. but if among the number there
was any who did wrong for the first
time and whose error would not have
taken place but for the liberty that
comes with the mask, then the whole
institution should be abolished or else
undergo a radical change of some sort
which shall put an end to these
abuses"
THE NEEDY.
Vacaville Reporter: We are witness
ing a large subscription being taken
to enable work to be furnished to the
needy of San Francisco AT the same
time it appears that there is little effec-
tive effort being made to keep out the
tide of Japanese immigration which is
flowing in upon us. Subscriptions for
our needy are well enough, but would it
not be better to devise some check
which may be applied to keep out those
who are in a sense taking the bread
out of the mouths of our own flesh and
blood?
THOSE WHO PUSH
Benicia New Era 1t is true that the
majority give way to a man who is

weakness or credulity. People natural

Sunday School Conference.

An interesting and profitable union
Sunday School conference OF all the
schools in town was held in the South
church, St. Iohnsbury, Sunday alter
noon and evening, with good audiences
in attendance. In the afternoon instruc.
tive talks were given by the State Field
Worker, |. b, Miller, on the "Rclation of
State to District" and by Mrs. A. +.
Bangs on the "Why and How of the
Sccrctary's Work. Superintendent ault
of the North church, Bailey OF the Meth
odist, and Prof. Fairbanks of the South
each said few helpful words on Are
Our Methods Adequate to Best Results ?"
and Mrs. w. p. Smith read a paper on
the study OF the Bible.
In the evening Rev. Frank Appleton
gave an address on "The Sunday School
and the Home" in which he said that the
child's religious education must begin in
the home, from which he will go to the
Sunday School and then to the church.
Prot ID. Y. Comstock in short talk
offered a few valuable hints in the way
OF making the Sunday School lessons
more interesting to all scholars and es.
pecially to tired heads OF families. He
suggested that special class be formed
for the latter, who would not beexpcrted
to prepare themselves any more thor
oughly than their tired feelings permitted.
Each member of such class might be
given one thing to look up and have it
understood that nothing more would be
expected ofthem. Hc had seen this method
tired with great success. Teachers should
fill themselves full to Overlooking within
formation concerning the lessons, and
the Sunday School hour would not drag
slowly as it sometimes does. Instead OF
"What, time not yet up" from the
scholar, it should be, "What, time al
ready up?"
The closing address was by |. b. Miller,
on "The Sunday School and the Church. "
He said that the growth and develop
ment OF the modern Sunday School with
$4,000 scholars was one of the wonders
OF the 19th century. The Sunday School
is not a nursery OF the church, but it is
the great right arm of the church. The
greatest increase in church membership
comes from the Sunday School. Mr..
Miller spoke Of church in East Con.
