public sentiment No man, no set Of
men car do that with impunity. The
reasons they urge against the tubercu-
lin test are utterly inadequate and un-
sound, and are not worth moments
consideration by the Legislature, the
people or the press.
A NORTHERN CALIFORNIA.
Placervine Nugget: The attention of
the Fastener and foreigner is called
to this all-important and little appre-
ciated fact outside of this State. All
Of California. all of California's best eli
mate, all of Califoralia's best fruit rails
ing land is not in what has been ex-
tensively advertised as Southern CALI
fornia. There is a Northern California
1t is an older country in point of Amer
lean residents and strength of popula-
ton and therefore has been in the past
few years more conservative than the
stuthern section.
But when you see in your markets at
an unusually early season peaches,
pears, plums, cherries, apricots, Or
grapes from California you may be sure
that they were kissed into existence by
Northern California sun The
earliest fruits of all kinds go East from
the section known as Northern Cali
fornia. In Northern California there
is climate as balmy, there are seasons
delightful as ever any part of the Garth
knew.
Now understand, this is not said for
the purpose of disparaging the south.
No better country or climate can be
found out of doors than is in Southern
California. But it is simply desired to
call your attention to the fact that
there is another place that is every
whit as good in every way. Our fruits
and flowers are quite as luscious and
beautiful and sweet. Our soil is as pro-
ductive, and if our people are little
more conservative they are just in the
same ratio more prosperous as a whole
WHAT 1T HAS DONE FOR CALI
FORNIA.
Santa Barbara Press: Congressman
McLachlan is an enthusiast at all times,
but yesterday carried the very breath
of the wave of prosperity into the
"Press" office with a rush. Never, .
said the ex-Congressman, who gave
place last November TO Brother Barlow
of Populistic, Democratic. socialistic
professions Never in the history of
the State has so much been done for
California products as by the present
protective tariff. Look at it. Here are
beans, lemons, asphalt, dried fruit and
cattle. The tariff bill takes them all
in. Take beans as an example. Men
are selling their product to-day at over
50 per hundred as against a half of
that sum last year. The duty is 40
cents a bushel, and the Canadian farm
er is not happy over the situation. With
the lemon situation you are all fa-
miliar. The old Mckinley duty of 2S
cents box didn't protect. The new
duty, l cent a pound, does, and though
the big importations prior to the en-
actment prevent high prices for the
present, the outcome is sure to be good.
Some of the biggest Populists of the
country are stopping their calamity
howl, and are owning up that the G.
o. P. was right. The whole business
of the country is on the move, and
Southern California is most distinctly
in it,
COMES IN ANYWAY
Redlands Citrograph: While the
United States is importing $100, 900, 600
worth of sugar it seems like the veriest
nonsense to use free Hawaiian sugar
as an argument against annexation Of
the Pearl of the Pacific. Besides, it
comes in free anyway, under the reci-
procity treaty. Hawaii is bound to be
Territory of the United States and
we suggest February 22d as the proper
date for Hawaii's admission day.
