MR.. GAGE AT LOS ANGELES.

II HE address of Henry T. Gage at Los Angeles
on Saturday evening in response to the cordial
welcome of thousands of his neighbors greeting
him his return home as the chosen standard
bearer of the Republicans of California may be &C
counted in some respects as the opening of the
Republican campaign and such will be given care
full consideration by all intelligent voters
In its form the speech is not that OF a campaign
Grafton It was not intended to be so. 1t the
talk of man to his friends and has all the fluent
ease of conversation At the outset the speaker put
himself in the attitude of friend talking to friends
and said to them frankly: During the time that
have moved in your midst you know whether have
walked as an honorable upright citizen or not. If
| have failed anywhere to comply with the dictates
OF common honesty or common manhood, l implore
you at the coming election to cast vote against me
and not for me-.
Beginning with that straight, direct statement of
his life among them, Mr. Gage went to talk to his
Los Angeles fellow citizens of the issues of the
pagn with an equal terseness and directness. AS
matter of he referred to the attack made upon
him by Mcguire during that gentlemans recent visit
to Los Angeles, and with keen wit exposed both the
absurdties and the dangers of the candidacy of the
leader of what Senator Bula felicitously called "the
amalgamated errors.
1t was in those portions of his speech that the Re
-
his best 1t has been so frequently boosted by the
Democrats and the Populists that Mcguire is irwin
chile on the stump that this demonstration of the
ability of Mr. Gage to reute his sophsms by strong
argument, and to turn aside his ridicue with ready
w.t. will carry confusion into the ranks of the fac
tons 1t will not be surprising after this if the course
of the campaign should prove that Mr.. Gage is not
only a safer citizen, better business and more
fitted for the office of Governor than his versatile
opponent but even better campaign debater.
Certainly in the first conflict between the two the
honors have been won by Mr.. Gage. He has rddled
Maguires Los Angeles speech and has furnished
the Republicans of the State with good campaign
document as could be desired. The State convention
clearly chose the right for the work before him.
He will only be good Governor, but he is going
to be good fighter we'll as leader in the con-
test for conservatism and prosperity against errac
theorists and political confusion.

THE GERMANS IN SYRIA.

n EPORTS that the Governments of Great
~ Britain and Germany have arranged for Joint
L action and cooperation in Egypt and in Syria
with proviso for an offensive and defensive alliance
under certain conditions will occasion no surprise
Such an agreement has been long foreshadowed, not
only by speeches of British statesmen, but by the
drift of events which for years past have tended to
make some alliance necessary to both countries.
The time has gone by when British statesmen ex-
ulted in separation from European alliances and
boosted of the splendid isolation" of their kingdom
The mighty coalitions of the Continent have made it
evident to them that strong Great Britain is, she
will need friend when the shock comes, and more
over that the knowledge of her having strong ally
may prevent the shock from coming at ALL Germany
is naturally the Government to which the British
would look for alliance and it so happens that re-
cent developments of German energy have brought
about situation that renders British friendship about
as important to the Germans their friendship to
the British.
One of the most forceful and far reaching move
ments which has taken place in Europe and Asia
Minor in recent years has been the influx OF German
energy German capital and German commerce into
the Turkish empire. The movement has been a
silent one, and until few years ago was not much
noted Then it was suddenly discovered by an inves-
tgator at Vienna that while the Russians had been
seeking a dominating influence in the Balkan PENN
sua and over Turkish territory generally by diplo-
matte methods, the Germans had been building rail-
roads, starting factories, extending commerce and
absorbing the banking business of the people Of those
countries The Turkish problem, therefore,
a new phase and it is German industry in place
of British diplomacy that stands antagonist to
Russian domination around Constantnople.
If it turn out that the OF the treaty such
as have been reported the chief public interest in it
will lie in that portion which relates to these German
interests in Syria. The world has long since accepted
British domination in Egypt settled fact, and the
agreement of Germany to cooperate in maintaining
If does not materially alter the situation. The agree
ment with respect to Syria, however, is thing
altogether 1t creates a condition never before in
existence, and may prove to be the beginning of a
movement that will have worldwide effect changing
and sweeping away every aspect OF international
lations seen to-day.
That German supremacy in Syria would be of i'm
mense benefit to the people of that country and in
directly to the whole world cannot be questioned It
would carry into those rich lands and among those
sluggish tax-oppressed communities the law, the or
der the industry and the science of of the
races of the globe. 1t would prepare way for the
eventual redemption of all Asia Minor region that
was once powerful in the world and would assure to
Europe protection against the menacng advance of
the colossal despotism of Russia toward Constan-

LABOR'S FESTAL Day.

ABOR in the United States will awake this
| morning to the enjoyment of the day set
IL apart for the annual celebration of the accom-
pshments of industry and recognition of the honor
due to the workingmen by whom that industry is
carried on. It, is, moreover, day which all citizens
should observe as far possible, for in American
society we have few iders; nearly all men are
workers. and all have clear understanding of the
high position labor rightly holds in every civilized
community.
The date selected for Labor day is somewhat I'M
fortunate. 1t falls so near the date of Adn1is-
sion day that it is lost sight OF by a good many
people who engaged in preparations for the cele
braton OF what is distinctvely CALIFORNIA; natal festi-
val In addition to this there is the further draw
back that there is California Labor day to be cele-
brated later in the year. and that fact confuses the
public to some extent.
The conditions of industry throughout the COM
monwealth are as rule favorable to the celebration
this year. The farmers indeed have suffered from
droughts, but the prices of all farm products have
been good and on the whole the crops have been re-
munerative. The restoration of the protective tariff

YELLOW CoPPERHEADS.

lux some time past it has been apparent that the
yellow press of copperhead tendencies is trying
to make political capital for the factions it sup
ports as well as sensations for readers of depraved
tastes by describing the various military camps OF the
country as plague spots, and asserting that the War
Department of the Government has been crimnally
neglectful of the welfare of the sick and suffering
soldiers
these charges from comparatively small beginnings
have now gone to the extreme of malignant lying
The officials of the army have been accused of Of
lenses which morally amount to murder. The coun-
try has been excited by fearful reports of disease
pestience, starvation and cruelty in the camps of the
volunteers, and women whose sons brothers and
husbands are among the soldiers have been in many

TRAVELLING LIBRARIES AGAIN.

\ OW that the time is approaching for the cleo
VI ton of Legislature all persons who are
interested in the advancement of the general
culture of the State can with advantage press upon
the attention of legislative candidates the Importance
of enactng law which will permit the use of the
State library in providing for California travelling
library system similar to that which has accom-
plished so much good in New York and other pro-
gressive States of the East.
To establish and maintain such system will not
entail any considerable expenditure the part of
the State while it will confer great benefit upon all
sections, and particularly upon those where pub
lie library exists. AT present the volumes in the
State library of very little to any one and
OF use at all to the great majority who are taxed
to sustain the institution. By providing for travelling
libraries considerable proportion of these volumes
now unused could be put into general circulation
and made available for the reading and the study of
the great masses Of the people.
AS has been repeatedly pointed out by The Call
the operation of the system is simple. number Of
books useful for reading and study by those persons
who wish something better than the cheap novels
that plentiful could be classified by the
State library trustees into sets containing anywhere
from twenty-five to one hundred volumes These
sets would be sent to any part of the State where
three more taxpayers would guarantee the freight
charges and be responsible for the safekeepng of the
books. When set had been read in one locality it
would be passed to another and thus the expense
of shipping would be very little
Travelling libraries it must be borne in mind, have
passed beyond the experimental stage. They have
been in active operation in several Eastern States for
number of years, and the success achieved has been
remarkable. The trustees of our library could OBJ
tain from the East abundant information concerning
every detail of the working of the system and learn
exactly how to put it into operation here without
running the least risk of losing the books nvolv-
ing the State in heavy expense.
Until the Legislature authorizes the State Ii
brary cannot be used for the proposed purpose. 1t
is for that that advocates of the system and
all who wish to give the whole people fair and free
use OF the books bought with their money should at
impress upon all candidates for the Senate or
the Assembly the expediency of enacting the required
legislation this winter
The question is one of considerable importance for
owing to the widely scattered condition of the popu-
laton there thousands of cultured Californians
who out of reach of public library, and it i.
but justice to expand and extend that at Sacramento
SO that they may profit by its volumes.
