THE nation is now engaged in
discussing peace with Spain, the
war and the question that is grow
ing out Of 1.-THE acquisition of
new territory. When the war was
FIRST declared it was for the purpose
of freeing Cuba Of an unrighteous
rule, but Dewey's brilliant victory
at Manila brought with it new re-
sponsibilities and new ideas to the
nation.
Heretofore the United States has
been satisfied to live at peace with
all nations, to stand as a guide to
other nations on the larger freedom
of man. Bptthe victory at Manila
has changed this-what was gained
must be held-and men and sup
plies are being sent to the Philip
pines to complete the great work
inRugurated by Dewey. Not salts
fed with this new territory In the
Orient, Congress attached Hawaii
and it is now the intention to hold
an island in the Ladrones group
and all Spanish possessions in the
West Indies, including Cuba and
Porto Rico.
Whether this new departure il
wise or not, we do not pretend Il
know. Tennesseans viii no doub
be the gamer by the new order o.
things. Avast tradewill be inaug
urated between the South and ouI
new possessions in the West Indies
which win open new markets to GU.
people. Agreat line Of sea vessel
and new railroads viii be needed t,
do the business, and a great nav!
demanded to protect our interests
The Nicaragua canal will becom
anecessity and will shortly be com
pleted, which viii open new mar
ketsfor our people in the Orient
From cold-blooded Commercial
view the South will certainly prof
by the new order of things.

THE manner in which the Re
publican nomination for governor
is being hawked around from one
end of the State to the other must
be disgusting to the Republican
party. For the last three months
representatives Of the party have
been trying to dispose Of this nom
ination, not exactly to the highest
bidder, but to any person who will
agree to accept it, but there arc no
takers, and as the time Of holding
Che State convention is drawing
near the situation is singularly en-
barrassing to those who are using
every effort to dispose of the empty
honor. This is in itself an element
of weakness to the ticket, and vii
have a tendency to demoralize the
rank and file Of the party and vii
prove a corresponding advantage t.
the Democrats.

TWO NECESSARY CHANGES.

is quite evident that change ought to be made
IN the name of the Silver Democratic Popuist
combination which is soliciting the suffrages
OF the people OF this State for its kangaroo ticket
Unless this organization wishes to be indicted the
election in November for obtaining votes under false
preenses, 1t will be compelled to adopt different
designation. We therefore respectfully suggest as
precautionary measure that the fusion gang be called
the Gallagher party This shorter than the regular
name, it is more euphonious than the Popocratic
party and it is thoroughly expressive of the object
and purposes of the fusion
The entire movement is designed to put the Gal
agher family in office, and to call the fusionsts the
Gallagher party would be at once appropriate and
honest
There is another thing the Gallaghers must do if
they desire to succeed in their sortie on the Offices
They must Immediately cut loose from Hearst's
bcoding sheet. If the Gallaghers will jog their men,
cries little they will recall the fact that Hearst once
sold his paper to the Southern Pacific Company for
100000 advertising contract This money was
made payable in monthly instalments of $1,000 and
therefore the contract extended period of thirty
months, covering State campaign and two Legisla-
lures.
The Gallaghers ought also to recall the fact that
after efecting this sale of its silence Hearst refused
to stay fixed" , After serving Huntington for
twenty-five months he broke the quiet he had main
tanned and began to abuse the railroad. Various
plantations have been offered of this extraordinary
conduct The most tenable one is that Hearst had
constituted himself grievance committee and had
applied for an increase of pay failing to get which
he went strike This theory is supported by the
fact that the railroad lockout Of 1894 was then in
progress AT such time Hearst, it is, presumed
would naturally adopt the absurd view that his silence
worth more to the Southern Pacific than $1,000
month
If the Gallaghers possess any sense they will per-
ceive that the support of sheet which has been con-
victed of such oense this cannot fail to prove
fatal in the campaign. What these gentlemen should
do is to call their State Committee together resolve
in favor of adopting the name of the Gallagher party
and then formally repudate the support of the Ex-
aminer. We assume that the Gallaghers are anxious
to get control of the State government. Of course
they indifferent that point they may proceed
they are.
1t is quite certain however, that they will be de-
feated if they continue to accept the support of
Hearsts boodling sheet, and it is not less probable
that unless they change their name as we have sug
gested they will be apprehended after election for
obtaining votes under false pretenses The present
Gallagher party is not the Democratic Silver Repub
lican-P opust party by long shot, and to solicit
votes under such designation is fraud on the
people.

FORTY-EIGHT EVENTFUL YEARS.

q T San Jose to-day the Native Sons and
| I Daughters OF this great State celebrating
the admission of California into the Union.
This forty-eght years ago. More than an aver
age lifetime has passed Most of the pioneers are
at 1t is fitting that the day should be remen-
bered by their children
Halt century ago California was an unknown
land place OF mystery and tradition. There were
stories told of the gold it held, of the broad
where the Spanish followed an ideal life, of the
matchless climate and yet the bold spirits who set
sail for it essayed to reach it by trip across the
almost endless plains did not know whittier they
were, coming. Upon arrival they found and
strange conditions. They had left behind the matter
ofact civilization with its fixed FORMS and the task
was theirs to build up and abiding civilization
They did this From the first before statutes could
be framed, they said that justice should rule. They
were industrious, enterprslng and they became pros
porous. OF their labors the fruit is now We
hold them in high esteem, and whether they have
been called still among us, the work they ac-
compshed their credit and freely are they given
honor.
Since the admission of California progress has been
something beyond description. The unknown State
has grown to be mighty It's resources have been
sought out, its productiveness encouraged. 1t has
added millions to the wealth of the world and those
who live within its bounds think themselves blessed
that such is their privilege. Wen may the Native
Sons and Daughters make gala day.
AS an incident of the occasion The Call will run
a special train to San Jose The young men and
women who went from here yesterday with banners
and with song shall not miss their daily paper
Bright and early this morning The Call will be in
their hands. They can read before breakfast and
hardly realize that they are away from home But
Californian is at home anywhere within the glorious
State of his nativity.
