THE OITRUs-GROWERS.

The cirrus-growers of California have
set goou example to men engaged in
other industries in the State by the man.
ner in which they are conducting their
contest for full and complete protection
TO their industry in the new tariff. They
have formed a strong organization, out
lined an excellent plan of work and en-
trusted it 10 competent and energetic men.
The chances of their success are therefore
good, and even if they should fail they
will have the satisfaction of knowing they
have made q good fight and have done
everything in their power 10 achieve as
well as to merit success.
The tariff committee of the association
has drawn up an elaborate argument in
support of the claim for a duty of cent
per pound on all citrus fruits imI orted
into this country and forwarded it TO our
representatives. in Congress. They have
not rested, however, with that, out have
gone forward in an endeavor 10 bring the
full force Of public opinion to sustain
them in their contention. They have
wioely circulated copy OF their petition
to Congress, with a iull statement of ell
the arguments to support it, and accom-
panied it with request that the citizens
of California generally shall urge upon
their represen tatives in Congress the i'm
portance of granting this protection 10 the
cilrus industry.
1t would be difficult to give too much
praise to the committee that drew up
the arguments for the proposed in
crease of duties. 1t covers the sub
ject thoroughly, but does not contan n a
single superhuous word. Every position
is sustained by statistics of the most ex-
act nature, and the showing is one that
cannot be refuted in any particular. The
press of California and all commercial and
Industrial bodies can well afford TO in
dorse such a petition, backed by argu-
ment. so coGently stated, and there can
be no question that the desired support
will be given.
1t is to be regretted that all California
industries requiring protection from the
new tariff have not been as well supported
and advocated as that of the citrus-grow-
ers. If an equal capacity for organization
and an equal energy IN the performance of
work were shown in all the departments
OF our industry, California would have
mparatively little to fear from the re-
vision of the tariff by the Senate. The
example of the citrus growers is therefore
one which can be well commended to the
people generally, and as il is not yet too
late to act. all industries OF California hay-
ing claims TO be presented during the tariff
legislation should take steps at oace TO
present them as effectively and as forcibly
as have been the claims of the growers of
citrus fruits
The San Francisco call., 1897-04-29
CALIFORNIA MINES.

The report of the statisticsn of tn e mint
on the gold and silver production of Cali
fornia for the calendar year 1896 is in the
highest degree encouraging It shows
that while there hus been a depression in
the far-famed mining districts of South
Africa there has been an increase in the
gold output in California, and this show
ing can hardly fail to have an eff ct in
attracting the capital of gold miners to
our State.
According 10 the report the mines OF
California in the past year yielded $I7.-
lSl 962 in gold and s422, 463 in silver, or a
total of $l7,6O4 026 Compared with the
output of 1895 there was an increased pro-
duction OF gold OF 81 ,S47, 245 and a decrease
IN the value Of silver produced OF $177, 1876,
leaving net gain of 81. .669 91S.
This showing, good in itself would un-
doubiedly have been much better if it
had been possible to obtain exact in
formation from all the mines. 1t is an
nounced, however, by the statist ician tina
some OF the miners seem to have a repug-
nance to furnishing the mint with the lie.
sired information, and many cannot be
induced to do so at all. The statements
upon as the minimum of State prod uctiye-
ness, inasmuch as the output was in no
case estimated or calculated from INSULT.
cient data, but was compiled from the
actual reports Of such mines as gave
them.
Until we have a statute making it obli-
gatory for all mining companies to make
sworn returns of the output of the gold
and silver of their mines we can never
make full and complete showing of the
productiveness of the mining district. of
the State. What has been accom- plished.
however, is sufficient to make clear the
fact that California still ranks among the
most prolific gold bearing regions OF the
world and IS steadily increasing in the
amount OF its output OF precious metals.
Considered in detail, the report shows
that the number of counties producing
gold and silver to the value Of 81, 600 600
or more has increased during the past
year from five to seven. the new counties
being Siskiyou and Tuolumne. The be 4
showing of the year was male bv Nevada
County, whose product of 81, 3S9, $40 not
only maintains that county in the first
rank but shows an increase over last year
VI PoO"' IL 1he seCoHu pidCc is nclu Oy

AS it has been reported from Europe
that the disturbances in the Transyaal
have caused an immense slump in the
mining interests in that portion of the
globe, 1t is not unlikely that this excel
lent showing for California will have the
effect of calling to this State much money
which otherwise would have been used in
