VERY CLEARLY STATED.
William p. COleman's Views on the
Financial Problem.

William p. Coleman, President of the
Sacramento Bank, has given the San
Francisco Financial Letter the fol-
lowing solution of our present national
financial problem. No doubt it will be
read with much interest:
Sacramento (Cal.), Jan. 5, 1897.
1 submit the following as solution
of our financial problem:
In the nature of things government Is
of the people, for the people and by the
people, and is the authorized financial
agent of the people to furnish money
for all transactions required by its peo-
pie.
Business is fluctuating, and the supply
and demand is not always the same In
all localities.
The Government, made by the people,
is expected to redeem its evidence of in
debtedness ON demand, and to do so, the
Government must be vested with power
and rights, so as to provide against Huc-
tuations, depreciations and changes in
different localities.
The Government by its people prom
Uses to pay all secured obligations when
due, and all its demand obligations
when presented to the Treasurer, which
is an impossibility when certain condi-
tions exist as evidenced since 1891.
The integrity of the Government
should be of the highest standard, and
the Government should and must nave
reserved rights that would enable 1t to
keep its cash reserve intact, and to do
so would suggest that whenever the re-
serve is down to the limit that the Gov
ernment, instead of paying the demands
or going into the market to sell bonds,
issue say 2 or 3 per cent. bonds Tor sloo
or more to the party making the de-
manal; these bonds should be received
at their face value for all Government
demands and for private dues. These
bonds to be redeemable at any time
after notice by the Government on pay
ment of principal and interest to date
of payment in gold coin.
This course would not fail to inspire
confidence and make it possible for the
Government to meet its obligations and
tide over any financial crisis.
The Government to call in the ponds
in the order of their numbers, COM
mencing at number one, whenever
there is an excess in the reserve fund
over one hundred millions. The interest
on the bonds to cease from date that
said bonds are called in.
The law should be pure American and
not apply to people of other countries
who hold in good faith claims against
our Government. Such a law to be con-
stitutional must apply wholly to our
citizens and not apply to bona fide
claimants of other nations.

NARROW AND SELFISH OBJEC.
TIONS.

Those people who argued against
at Folsom before the House Committee
the other evening because the country
road districts have not awaited of the
road metal prepared at the plant, spoke
without knowledge of the facts.
First, the plant has only been in oper-
alton a few months. Second, 1t takes
considerable time to give the necessary
notices and to take the necessary steps
to improve a country road. Third, as
the plant was an experiment, people
wanted to ascertain its success. Fourth,
all that the plant has been able to turn
out has been taken under the subscrip
ton the law made condition precedent
to the building of the plant.
In short, there has not been time suffi-
cient to get the country road districts
into line with the plant, but in all direc-
tions the necessary steps are being
taken. 1t would seem that no intelli-
gence would condemn plant that has
been but seven months at work, and all
the product of which has been taken,
with orders far ahead of production,
and while these supplies were being
sent out to fill the very subscriptions
that the law required to be made as
guarantee.
Just why the people of cities should
not be permitted 10 buy the road metal
produced at the plant because street
Improvement improves private prop
erty," as one objector put 1t, puzzles
most people. Does not road improve
ment improve property lying along the
roads improved? Is it not as beneficial
to free labor to be employed on street
as on road work? Have not citizens
within municipal bounds the same civil
and human rights as those living with
out them? Does residence in a city
thereby condemn one to the exactions of
private producers, while ruralists are to
be free from them by grace Of the
State? Shame upon those who have ad-
vanced the narrow and selfish objec-
tons.

fact that public money in banks is
capitalization upon which the banks do
business. 1t is worse than subsidy to
private business; it is actual engage
ment by the banks in business upon
capital furnished by the State, without
any possible compromising return,
whereas subsidies are generally given
to aid enterprises which it is believed
will return to the general public bene-
fits justifying the gift. Yet it is pro-
posed to pass laws at this session Of the
Legislature to give to County Treas

Mr.. Canavan's Assembly bill 900 re-
quires the Mayor Of every city, ON the
22d day Of February of each year
which is to be California Arbor Day
to plant a tree, shrub or flower in some
public park or by the roadside. That's
all right. But the bill also makes it the
solemn duty of the Governor TO
go out on that day and plant a posy
by the wayside. The cruelty of this bill
resides not in compelling Governor
Budd to do this duty, but in naming a
statutory legal holiday for the function
and thus depriving His Excellency of the
privilege of issuing a proclamation
making the eventful hours a legal hol-
iday in which he starts Johnny-jump-
up on its course of life.

RIGHT IN POINT.

On Wednesday we pointed out the in
iquity of allowing public funds % be
used to capitalize private or any bank
ing institutions. The cases were cited
Of the failure of the Tacoma banks last
year, carrying down with them to total
loss the funds of city and county; the
failure Of the Newtown, KY, bank, car
rying with it the loss of the money of
two cities or towns.
On the heels of that article now
comes the news of the failure of the
First National Bank of Olympia,
Wash, occasioned by the withdrawal
of $4,000 of State money in the custo-
dy of the bank.
Here then is evidence Immediately at
hand of what we asserted to be the

etc, and penalties are fixed for violation
of the law, and for infringement of regu-
lations Of the bureau Reports are to be
made monthly by the agents and en-
ployed veterinary surgeons; orders, reg
ulations and rules for sanitation of dair-
les and creamerieS are to be made by
the bureau and carried out rigidly; all
which are wise.
The doubts the bill give rise to, con-
Germ the wisdom Of attempting to place
this whole business under one manage
ment, the unwisdom of taking from the
counties the right to inspect, the delay
that is provided for before an animal
contaminated by disease can be dis
posed Of, and the exceeding doubt con-
cerning the contemplated payment of
owners for cattle destroyed under the
law. We cannot understand why a
neglect should be visited upon all the
people. AS we'll might the owner of a
glandered horse expect the State to pay
him because of the loss OF his animal
by that disease.
The whole question is one of protec-
ton of the health Of the people against
protection of dairy interests. They are
to be conserved, as as are all other
worthy industries, but when 1t comes to
the lives of the people who consume the
product of that industry they stand
always first We find nothing in the
bill that carries the inspection of cattle
beyond those used for dairy purposes.
Diseases affects cattle used for food
purpose also, and this source of dam
ger to life must be looked to also.
1t may be added that the failure to
include such cattle leaves them to be
inspected under the present powers Of
Supervisors. But if SO, why divide au-
thority and have two systems Of in
spection?
We do not wish to be captious or
raise mere technical objections, but this
subject is one that has long engaged
our attention and much interested us,
as one Of vital Importance to all con-
sumers of food. We therefore look with
fear upon a system that would seem TO
be too cumbersome, slow and inefficient.
1t would appear that by far the better
plan would be to compel every county
to make these inspections, and to have
them made by officers not at all related
to, or having any interest in the dairy
or meat business, and Independent
wholly Of any association, the interests
of the members of which are to be af
fected along the pocket nerve by in
spection.
In this county we know it takes the
full time of skilled veterinary surgeon
as inspector and of assistants to in
spect the cattle and dairies within the
the utmost endeavor, complete the
round in a year In fact, this matter
of inspection is so grave and large a
duty that 1t must be prosecuted every
day and all the time, and when the
round is once made, the inspectors
must go all over the ground again. Ex-
perience here, in Santa Clara, and other
counties, establishes it as a fact that
dairy and stock inspection Is never
ending.
The bill carries an appropriation Of
100000 to meet the expense of agents
and veterinarians and incident costs of
the system. We are impressed with the
belief that the expenses necessary
should be borne by each county and
that true economy will thereby be con-
