AN IN CREASE OF TAXES.

The republicans in congress propose
to increase taxation instead of reduce
ing expenditures.
The proposition boldly stated by the
chairman OF the ways and means COM
mittee is to compel the plain people
to pay directly into the treasury the
first year under the new tariff at least
$s0,oO0,O00 more than they are now
doing, with an increase upon that
enormous amount in the years to fol-
low. This is tho direct taxation in
crease that is proposed. The indirect
increase OF expense to the people
through the tribute they will be COM
PEELED to pay to the protected monop-
oists will be immensely greater than
the direct taxation, which in itself
vii prove an enormous burden.
Under the "Dingley" robber tariff
bill as proposed, Mr., DinRley. the
chairman of the committee of ways
and means, stated that che people will
have to pay in taxes $2l, 100000 more
than they do now for the sugar they
use; S27,000,C00 more for their wooden
clothing, S17,500,O00 more for raw
wool; ST 100000 more for their linen.
jute and hemp goods; S4,0OO.O0O more
for their crockery and glassware; 3d.
OO0,0O0 more for the articles they use
made of metal S3,5O0,OOO more for
their drugs, medicines and chemicals,
S7,OO0,00O more for their tobaccos;
$1,700,000 moro for their lumber; &c.
200,0U0 more for their sundr1es. These
millions of direct taxes, as we have
said, are not all. If Lney were the
people might stand it. But under the
robber tariff system the indirect tax
or tribute levied upon the people by
the protected monopolists is many
times greater than the duties paid on
importatiohs.
In startling contrast to the immense
increased taxation on the necessities
OF life, proposed by the Dingley rob-
Der tariff bill, is the fact that the bill
reduces the duties on diamonds 10 per
cent. Under the Wilson bill dia.
monds pay a duty of 10 per cent
The republican bill admits them free
1t is noticeable also that the Dingley
bill proposes to increase the tax on
champagne and other foreign liquors
only S1,5O0,000, while on wooden cloth
ing the increase is s27.0OO,OOO. The
rich plutocrats who wsar diamonds
and drink champagne are expected to
contribute even less than they do now.
1t IL the plain people that tho repub-
leans leaders are after. The pluto
Gratis elected Mckinley and the re-
publican congress-The plain people
must foot the bills. - Illinois State

MEXICAN TRADE AGAIN
Another Steamship Proposition to Be
Considered Wednesday Night

Considered Wednesday Night
The proposition to establish perma-
nent steamship line between this city
and Mexican ports has been revived dur
ing the past few days, and the indica-
tions are that at last the merchants of
this city will be enabled to capture the
trade with Mexico. A conference will be
held between the principal manufac-
turers and shippers Of this city Wednes-
day evening at o'clock at the rooms of
the Merchants and Manufacturers as
ISOLATION to discuss the project and con-
slider an offer for steamship service be-
tween this city and Mexican ports on a
permanent basis, without touching at
San Diego.
From recent information the shippers
of this city have learned that the state
ment that the Mexican merchants desire
long credits is erroneous, but that on
the contrary the latter buy on terms gen.
orally in vogue in this country. 1t has
been demonstrated to the local manufac-
turers and merchants that, with little
difficulty, large portion of the Mexican
trade can be controlled in Los Angeles,
but the principal requirement is per-
manent steamship line.
Overtures have been made to obtain
regular steamship service between Los
Angeles and Mexican ports at reason
able terms. and the shippers are ex-
pected to take action on Wednesday
evening in regard to a subsidy toward a
regular and permanent steamship SER
vice. The present offer Is not from the
Lower California Development COM
pany, but the steamers will be under the
direct control Of the local merchants.
General Andrade, the Mexican consul in
this city, will be present at the meeting
to furnish all necessary information and
data.

After the Ball

AS an aftermath of the Thanksgiving
ball at Turner hall on Main street
Thursday night, Annie Watson yester-
day had George Veile arrested on a
charge Of battery. The couple live to-
gether at 2OS Winston street.
They visited the ball together and the
woman indulged freely in malt refresh
ments and became hilarious. Veile re-
monstrated but the woman refused to
listen to him. Then he went home
alone and locked the door. Some hours
'leterSthe eaxoman>fo followed him but she
found the door locked. She kicked it In
but was promptly kicked out.

Hotel del Coronado

n. y NORCROSs Agent Hotel del Coronado,
200 South Spring st., Los Angeles:
Dear Sir-We are glad we took your advice
and came here. We never would have forgiven
ourselves had we omitted Coronado, for 1t is
simply perfect In every way-the grsndest ho-
tel, the most beautiful beach, the best bathing,
boating, fishing. sailing, bicycling, riding and
driving BUTT must be seen to be appreciated
for neither. pen nor tongue can portray the
grandeur Of the hotel and beauty of location.
No other place can compare with Coronado,
and no other hotel has the comforts. the tab. G,
the grounds and all advantages we find here al
Hotel del Coronado. We are really surprised
that everybody has not come here, but we sup
poe that many think as we did that COrO-
nado is similar to other resorts, when In fact
1t is un like, though superior, to any other.
Thanking you most heartily for sugges ting II
to us, we remain, very truly yours. ++s
p. B.-Best rates we found on our entire trip.
We came to spend two days, and have now
been here over two weeks. Perfectly lovely
golf links here and all sorts OF games. Just the
