WE ARE THE PEOPLE

been vested in the United States for q
quarter of century, only we have never

son that, since its cession. we have fiat
tered ourselves that a protective tariff
would preserve us our own home mar

Now it is different We want the earth
and along with 1t few coaling stations
out in the deep, few naval stations
for our battleships, few mid-ocean
acres for the politico- commercial colo
mics of the future.
Page Page is 4016 miles from San Fran
cisco. 4012 miles from Yokohama, 2263
from Honolulu, 5000 from Guam, and
1000 from Manila. OF what significance
is distance in world commerce?
A long time ago congress appropriated
a quarter of a million dollars for the
Improvement of Pearl harbor another

Robbing Peter to Paw Paul

A firm of attorneys claim to have dis
covered means by which they can bleed
the state for the benefit of the various
counties and themselves. They claim GER
tain moneys heretofore paid into the state
treasury can be recovered and that they
will do so If given 80 per cent of what they
may induce the state board of examiners
20 allow. 1t strikes us that this good
thing for the supervisors to let alone. 1t
will not prove a good investment. If the
matter applied to this county alone, like
the back dues on orphans, 1t would be
different but when 1t operates equally on
all the counties nothing will be gained by
It, The interests of the county and the
state are so closely interviewer that for all

So DISTINGUISHED

It Is wonderful, indeed. what an interest
the Republican ringsters have taken in the
Democratic party all of sudden. They
urge that the Democratic end of the fusion
lists hold delegate convention, when as
matter of fact their only reason for so
doing is that they are aware that ticket
nominated in mass convention would
wipe hide and hair off the Republican
ticket at the fall election. These ringsters
are crazy on the subject of delegate con-
vention-they believe that because few of
the Republicans have been misdoing the
affairs of the Republican party so long in
delegate convention that that is the
proper way to accomplish the work.

Wheeler a Stalwart Wheel Horse

"Gen. Joe Wheeler will get the biggest
vote this year, when the people of his dis-
trict elect a congressman, that he ever re.
ceved," said E. M. Fillmore of Alabama az
the Riggs.
81 live in his county, and l have hearo
dozens of lifelong Republicans say that
they mean to vote for him. Many Populists
talk the same way. and. of course, the Dem"
ocrats are a unit for the little general. I
think his nomination will be by acclama-
ton. He was always pretty strong with
the voters, but since his course in our
trouble with the dons he has doubly
strengthened his hold on the esteem of his
constituents. "-Washington Post.
The herald., 1898-08-06


1t is in the direct interest Of the people
to circumvent the Southern Pacific rail-
way in it's political designs, whether its
hand is shown in the manipulation OF
the machinery of the one party or the
other. 1t is altogether safe to assume
that what it is after is something II
should not have, and something which
legitimate means. Voters and taxpay.
ers of all parties should come to recog-
nize the company's strikers In commit
tees and conventions, and view with the
greatest suspicion every movement they
make. They represent not the people
but are the puppets of a merciless cor
poration in disguise.

JOINED TO HER IDOLS

The queen regent is represented as de-
sirous Of uniting all parties, save the
Carlists and the Republicans" upon the
terms of the treaty agreed upon, and to
that end has summoned the leaders of
all the other political divisions to a con-
ference.
It is not strange that she should re-
gard the pacification Of the Carlists as
a hopeless undertaking, since their most
cherished hopes are based upon popular
dissatisfaction and the chaos that it
may resolve itself into. But it is not
hopeful sign that she spurns the ap-
prevail of the most liberal and enlight-
ened element of the population of the
kingdom. whose composite thought and
aspirations are represented by CASTELAR,
She cannot be Influenced by fear of an
other revolt from that element, for its
great leader-the first president of the
first Spanish republicans publicly de-
clared, since the war began, that the
country Is more monarchical in it's tend
encies than ever. He even went so far
as to declare that, under the constitu-
ton, Spaniards enjoy about all of the
liberty they are entitled to or are capa-
BILE of approaching. His loyalty to the
throne, in its deepest distress and great.
est weakness, has been distinctively
heroic. The man, and what his nam,
stands for would seem to deserve NOR,
| consideration, at this hour, than tn,
queen is disposed to yield.

ONWARD TO-WHATP

The imperialists may have to content
ACQUISITION of Hawaii. A little later
their accelerated appetites will be tenn
porarily appeased with the formal ces-
sion of Porto Rico and few smaller
a year their propaganda will have made
it perfectly apparent that Cuba must
be annexed-pacficatio of the island,
according to the original purpose, will
be along these lines. They have already
discovered, in the insurgent army, "a
surprising sentiment in favor of union, "
and among it's officers has been disclosed
"a remarkable shift of feeling" They
already assert that Garcia, the uncom-
promising foe of annexation, has. within
a night, completely revised his opinions,
and now believes that "the welfare OF
Cuba depends upon her joining the sis
terhood of states" Two senators from
the eastern state of Cuba are necessary
to offset the influence of two senators
from the western state Of Hawaii. And
if statehood is accorded to Cuba, why
not also to Porto Rico, whose people are
rallying around the flag and singing
Yankee Doodle?
Impatient indeed must be the impe-
rialist who isn't satisfied with the cur
rent of events-wth the drift of senti-
ment in favor of territorial acquisition,
colonization and commercial expansion.
An adaptable president will no doubt
take warning, and in future messages
refrain from jocular references to the
dangers surrounding q war of conquest.
