A Caucus Necessary.
(From the Weekly Calstogar

(F'rom the Weekly Calistogan.)
We believe that it is about time that
the Republican press of this State were
uniting against the treacherous acts of
the metropolitan dailies and demand
that the Republican members of the
Legislature hold a caucus for the Sc
lection of United States Senator. 1t
is very evident at this writing that if
they do not assemble in caucus there
will be no Senator chosen, and it would
be an everlasting disgrace to the party
and this Golden State of ours to let
the Legislature adjourn without elect
ing a Senator, inasmuch as the party
has a large majority. All differences
in the party have always heretofore
been settled by a caucus, and there
is no reason why IT. should not be done
in this case Our metropolitan con-
temporaries have always been strong
advocates of the caucus plan, and we
fail to see why they should not favor
it in this instance
The voters of the State elected the
present Republican Legislature with
the expectation and understanding that
that body would choose a Republican
to succeed Stephen M. White, and if
they fan to do so with the large ma
jority they have they will seriously in
jure the prospects of the party, and
undoubtedly commit political suicide.
We cannot afford to lose the Senator
at this time, for If Yves fail to elect one
1t will surely result In the Democrats
capturing the Legislature two years
hence and returning Mr.. White to

FRANCE.

The French have lost a President by
ueath-a clean, good man. but lacking
in ability to control the factional ele-
ments in French politics. He rose from
lowly estate to high rank by sheer force
of his talents, and while a sincere Re-
publican, he commanded the respect of
large body of Imperiaiists and Royal
lists, though having no influence over
the factions IN or outside of the greater
parties, and having absolutely no power
over the aggressive and turbulent spir-
its of the army. Indeed, he seemed to
fear them
But France has gained a new Presi-
dent by the election of NJ. Loubet, who
appears to have taken hold of affairs
with firm hand and we apprehend
that the disturbing elements will find
him very much harder man to deal
with than his predecessor. He has no
fear whatever of the autocratic Mill
tary Governor of Paris, General Eur
linden, and will put check upon that
Individual with strong. hand.
There appears to have been some lit
tie disturbance on the announcement
of the choice of Loubet, but it was con-
fined to groups of radicals, and these
We're scattered and appear to have
lacked other purpose than to voice their
hatred of Republican institutions
These groups We're counter balanced by
about as many and as large-sized bod
les of men in the streets who shouted
for the Republic and the new Presi-
dent.
With these exceptions the apprehend-
ed upuisings in Paris did not take
place. and there was no rioting save in
two instances, in both of which the po-
lice We're easily victorious. Whether
the army is loyal to the new President
remains to be seen. If it makes no an
tagonistic demonstration France is safe

be in perilous state.

Persons and Party.

From the Sacramento Sunday News.)
The gentlemen who have been honor
ed by the Republican party with posi-
tions as members of the Legislature are
still unable to discern any debt in re-
turn. If the party conventions had
been informed that the men who sought
their favor would so separate thmselves
into cliques or camps that it would be
impossible to elect a United States Sen
ator we do not believe that a single
deadlocker would have been nominated
The thing would have been so absurd
that the suggestion of an intention to
deprive the party of a Senator would
have been laughed out of existence.
The excuse that is given by the OBJ
structionists' is as strange as their ac-
ton. If we go into caucus we will

OUR RELATION TO THE FILL
PINOS.

The Review of Reviews" for Febru-
airy gives Aguinaldo credit for a large
degree Of ability and for unselfish pa
triotism of a remarkable order. 1t
sketches his life in fiattering colors,
and expresses the belief that the man
is wholly sincere in his activity for
Filipino independence. All that may
be granted, but it does not follow that
it is to be conceded at once that the
vast body of the people of the Philip
pines are ready for independence in
any form.
That they produce one or two such
able men as Aguinaldo and no more
rather counts against the claim made
for them that they are now able to
maintain an orderly Government. The
burden of evidence Is heavily against
that claim. But if they are entitled to
be recognized as a free government,
duly organized. it will be only when
they have demonstrated capacity to
maintain the obligations which an in
dependent State must assume toward
other States with which it holds COM
merce. Nor can the United States rec
ognize the Filipinos under any claim
until they have first bowed to the SUI
premacy of America as the legitimate
successor to the sovereignty OF Spain
in the Philippines.
1t will be time enough to consider
Filipino independence when the Fill
pipos are ready for it, and that, it is
the Judgment of those best informed
will not be for many years to come
while a large class of students of the
situation hold, with much to fortify
the position, that the varied tribes of
the islands never can be organized into
political State; that they must ever
remain wards of stronger and what
should be a beneficent Power.
This may be accepted as certain: the
American people will never be guilty of
injustice toward the people of the Phil
ippines. 1t is not in the nature of the
citizens of the United States to be
party to enslavement or such subjuga
ton of the islanders as will subject
us to the reproaches Of civilization we
can trust ourselves in this regard. The
genius of the American nation will not
foster injustice toward the unhappy
victims of Spanish misrule and tyranny

Time to Act.

(From the Humboldt Standard)
Every good Republican of the Statd
has right to demand immediate ac-
ton and the election of a Republican
to the United States Senate who will
be a credit to the State. Such man
is not hard to find. Five or six men
have already been placed in nomina-
ton, either of whom would do US no
discredit. Some of them who now have
small Observation-Disclosures, Scott, Pat
erson, Bard-any of these or others not
named would honor the position. The
main thing is to get together and Sc
lect good man, and. then elect him.
He should take his seat ON March lth
as most likely the Senate will be called
together in special session soon after
that date. No further time should be
wasted.

BUT A FEW DAYS MORE.

There remain at best but few more
days in which the possibility of an agree
ment among Republican legislators can
be counted upon concerning the selec-
ton of Senator. Within compare
lively few days they are to determine
whether they will lay the laurels of last
falls victory at the feet Of the political
foe or wear them proudly as victorsi
should.
The present situation is one that can
not be defended. No sort of sophistry
will excuse 1t. The attitude of those
who prevent caucus and an open vote
being had, is becoming more and more
intolerable to the great body of the Re
publicans throughout California Even
in the southern counties, whose repre-
sentetives appear to be so closely bound
in the folly of refusing to be governed
by the traditional, usual and reasonable
methods Of the party employed from
time immemorial IN ascertaining the
will of the majority, the people are be-
coming Disguised with the situation and
are by no means the unit they were
few weeks ago for solid south for a
southern man, or no man: at all.
The argument upon the subject has
been exhausted-there is nothing new
to be said upon it. Every consideration
of reason has been employed to move
the legislators processing allegiance to
4 ;,,fo
brethren and let the rule of the major
ity become dominant If it il said, as
indeed it is said, I'VE will not do this
thing because it may result in the
choice of some other than our personal
candidate" then confession is made
that personal judgment is placed above.
and superior to the will of the majority
which always has been, always will be
and must always be the law of the
party.
California has more than once sent on
delegations to National Republican con-
ventions pledged as firmly as men
could be bound, to stand for one par
ticular candidate and for him alone.
Ct SucH u6ieSdllOnS upon arriving III
the forum of the nominating conven-
ton, have, after making gallant stand
for the original selection, fallen grace
fully into and applauded the wishes of
the majority of the body. and Califor-
MIA Republicans never have had words
of rebuke for such performance
The. present deadlock is sapping the
life of the party. If it continues
throughout the session it will end with
party suicide. In that event the men
who bring the party to such an end
Will be held to an accountability fol-
lowed by penalties that will make their
names synonymous with reproach as
long as they live. The Republicans of
California will not be cheated, or

sufficient reason why the Republican
members should get together in caucus
and settle the Senatorial question.
We believe that the time has now
come for the press of the interior to

old-time honored custom Of holding
caucus, and settling this very difficult
question of choosing Senator that is
at present bothering the Legislature.

VIII Deserve Defeat.

(From the Pomona Progress)
From all parts of the State the de-
mand is coming that the Legislature
break it's deadlock and elect United
States Senator If the Republican
party with an overwhelming majorlty'
in the Legislature fails to elect sue
cessor to Senator Stephen M. White To
represent this State in the Senate OF
the United States, it will deserve to go
down in defeat at the coming election
and give place to a party that VIII
elect a representative. But it is not
likely to merit such bad deserts; for
public sentiment is becoming SO
aroused on the subject that the party
will hold a council and select a proper
man to represent California in the
United States Senate if the Legislature
does not do so.

themselves, despite all the struggles
through which they have passed in the
name of liberty and a republic, have no
true conception of what government
for and by the people really is. That
is to say. while the French are a. lib
erty-loving, coura geous and devoted
people, they have had no experience
with truly democratic form, and
hence have little knowledge concerning
free institutions as we understand
them.

THE DEBT SETTLED.

The indebtedness to the Government
OF the Central Pacific Company has
been adjusted finally, upon the basis
Of the law providing for a settlement
to be reached and means of payment
to be found This was to have the
approval of the President and there
upon to become operative and effective
without further action by Congress.
This end has now been attained. and
the whole debt question removed from
public contemplation. The Government
is to receive every cent demanded by it,
principal and interest, and the COM
pany is to make payment at fair rate
Of interest in twenty semi annual in
stanments, four of which have already
been taken up, leaving but sixteen
to pay to the national treasury in the
next eight years. In the meanwhile
the Government is secured far in ex-
cess of the liability.
It is noteworthy that this very meth
cd of settlement was opened up under
the law making it possible, six months
prior to the late political campaign in
this State, wherein Mr.. Mcguire and
his hackers endeavored to mislead the
people with the idea that there was
a. serious and .perplexing railroad ques-
ton at issue involving the debt pay
ment; that such payment could not be
assured to the Government and that
the only way out was to elect Mr.. Ma
guire, and demand of the Government
immediate foreclosure of it's lien. which
by the way would have been sad for
the Government, and have. resulted
made evident By the way, what has
become of Mr. Mcguire?
But the debt settlement has been had,
the first four installments have been
taken up already, and the United
States is amply secured for the others.
If there is default in the payment OF
any one of the installment notes, or OF
the 3 per cent. interest, the Govern
ment is to foreclose upon the securities
it holds and place the property under
Judgment and execution. Thus it will
be seen that a. settlement has been
effected under which no Government
right has been jeopardized. ample Sc
curity given for full payment to the
last cent, and yet the road will remain
under the control of California intelli-
gences, its original builders and their
successors, and will not pass into the
hands of strangers whose interests
might be agonistic to the coast, as
compared with greater and rival an
terests of other sections of the coun-
try and other lines Of transport.
With the closing of this chapter in
railroad agitation history, the door IS
shut upon the demagogues who have
for a quarter of a century fattened
upon the railroad debt question, and
have kept the State in turmoil with
their dire prophecies, their contentious
and their selfish and corrupt methods
of treating public questions. There re-
main, however, the political chicane,
and the blackmailing propensities Of a
large order of politicians. which lnfiu-
ences will probably for all time make
large enterprises and great industries
the targets of their assaults.

with the majority within the party be-
cause they would lose? The value of
party organization and discipline lies
in their power to ESTABLISH the prin-
ciples of the party and there is no other
way to acquire ability to rightly use
that power except acquiescence in the
viii OF the majority. If the party is to
lose Republican Senator through the
implacability of minority we do not
see how those responsible for it can go
home and claim to be Republicans.

party itself. There are some things

snaps Mr.. de Young, whose personal
revenges are more to him than party
or principle. 1t is to be feared that
some of the candidates for Senator
themselves are no better Republicans
than the furious editor who is consum-

who refuses to give his assent to a
caucus puts too high a value upon his
