ALL EQUAL UNDER THE LAW

The police commission, at its meeting

a resolution directing that the saloon

Since the discovery of gold fifty years
ago California has been until now the
largest producer of that metal. For the
time being Colorado enjoys the honor.
although the difference in the yield of
the two states is comparatively trifiing.
Mining here is not, as in the Centennial
state. the chief industry. but there is
no good reason why it should not con-
tinue to be a very important factor in
the upbuilding of the commonwealth.
Indeed it may easily again become first,
if the modern methods in vogue in Colo
rado are adopted here. The great in
crease in the yield of argentiferous val
ues in the latter state is due largely to
the cheapened processes of gold extrac-
ton, wholly within reach of the Cali
fornia miner. The discriminative appli-
cation of these utilities, by which ores
containing but small quantities of the
precious metal are proftably reduced.

A SOUND PRINCIPLE

There is no necessity for the United

expediency of any measure which it
may deem wise or necessary.-Los An
geles Times.
This is a sound principle. 1t was the
foundation on which the last great polit-
ical campaign was fought by the DEM
ocratic party. and it will be the founda-
tion for the political campaign of 1898,
as we'll as that of 1900. Let the United
States make its own laws and adopt it's
own line of policy. without the consent
of any other nation.

The Cheap-John editor of the Pasa-

peating on every available occasion the
falsehood that Senator Whites election
in 1892 was promoted by the use of a
sack Everybody 1t all conversant with
the facts knows that Senator Whites
election was notable as being the first
for long series of years in which the
sack did not cut a figure. When some
hint of corruption was thrown out, the
senator himself stood up before the leg
islature and used some good. stout Eng
lish, that still goes ringing down the
grooves of time. He publicly denounced
as liar any man who made any such
suggestion. That anathema is still 60

French olive-growers are urging their
government to adopt more stringent
regulations to check the growth of local
consumption Of American olive oil, and
are using the same argument that has
been so potent in keeping other Ameri-
can commodities out of European mar
kets. The relief demanded is a duty of
from 20 to % francs on olive Oil, and they
remind the minister of commerce that
Americans can have no possible objec-
tion to such moderate duty, since they
themselves exact duty upon European
olive oil equivalent to 73 francs. In this
they are on safe ground but if, as al
legged, the markets of France are being
sWamped with an adulterated article,
composed largely of cotton seed, they

Well, Mr.. Editor, what about the
dollar wheat now and the good times
