With the departure Of the monitors
assigned to service in the Philippines
the Pacific coast will be stripped Of its
last vesiige OF naval protection. But the
people OF the Pacific slope are not kept
awake nigkts with needless alarms nor
asking for flying squadrons to guard
them against phantom fleets from Cadiz.
The President uf the San Francisco
Chamber Of Commerce. in answer to o
question from Senator Perkins that the
people of California should "prosest, !"
expresses the popull. sentiment as fol-
lows:
We protested on the 18th OF April. In
the mean time Dewey has acquired for
California new outlet for our energies,
employment for our shipping, business
fcr our merchants, and has opened q col.
onizing future far beyond onr most ar
dent expectations. We, of San Fran.
cisco will bold nothing back which may
be Of service to the Administration,
even to our jeopardy.
This cheerful view Of the situation in
