questionable honors with more POM
posity and success than any of them.
ONE VIEW OF STRIKES.
Woodland Democrat: In view OF the
fact that the Administration organs are
vehemently insisting that the country
is prosperous and labor conditions very
satisfactory it is painful to record the
fact that there are more strikes in the
country on account of diSagreements
between those who labor and those who
employ labor than was ever known be-
fore known at one time. 1t is
true that with two or three
exceptions these strikes are not
of a very serious character, but
the frequency of them and the
great variety of interests involved IN
dicate in manner too plain to be mis-
taken that the relations between capl-
tai and labor are not as harmonious as
the Administration organs would nave
US believe; that the ante-election prom
ises of capitalists and monopollsts VINO
enjoy special privileges, to share with
labor whatever profits might accrue
from a high tariff, were made for cleo
ton purposes only; that capital Will
continue in the future as it has in the
past, to hire labor in the free-trade
market of the world, without any re-
gard to the profits of the enterprise in
which labor is employed, and subject
only to the inexorable law of supply
and demand
SUPERSTITION.
Redlands Facts: Superstitious people
now have a chance to get in some ef-
fective work. The predictions of a So
called savant that about this time
earth disturbances would be very Sc
we're in this section of the country and
that some part would be cut off from
the mainland and become an island fur
nish an excellent basis for narrowing
the feelings of the nervous and causing
strained misgivings as to the immedi-
ate future for safety and even life it
self. 1t matters not how often in the
past these predictions have been made
and proven false, and thousands have
committed asinine acts in expectation
of shutfiing off the mortal coil and be-
ing suddenly precipitated into the next
world, only to become objects Of ridi-
cule by sensible people; it matters not
how heavy pecuniary losses and great
mental sufferings have ensued from be-
lISbnlko VI udlI DtllSh1AS tAlIoC IL caAAAAb
direful forebodings, the crop Of fools
never fails and each fresh prediction
finds many ardent supporters, especial
ly when, as in the present instance,
even a small part of the prophesy be-
comes true. These superstitious people,
however, should remember one thing,
that no matter how carefully they pre-
pare to quit earth, their transformation
will not occur exactly according to their
ideas, but rather come as a thief in
the night" without warning and with
rare exceptions when least expected. 1t
is therefore best for them (and for US
alb to pursue an even, upright tenor
of way, and let death find them,
whether from disease, accident or ma
ture's upheavals. prepared to quietly
lay down their lives, as sooner or larer
every one must do, and approach the

USE COIN.

Fresno Republican: The Chicago
Record prints a cartoon representing
a bank teller pushing out pile of gold
in payment of a thousand dollar check
to a puzzled and disgusted depositor,
who says: 81 want gold only in politi-
cal platforms" If the Record" man,
and Eastern people in general, would
study California methods a while they
would learn that gold, and silver, too,
are very good things in business as
| we'll as in political platforms. The use
of actual coin in this country is
largely a matter of longitude. On the
Atlantic Coast practically no coin is
used except for small change. Pennies,
nickels, dimes and quarters are COM
mon and half-dollars are occasionally
used, but everything over a dollar is
paper. In Chicago and its tributary
Middle West silver dollars are COM
mon, but gold is practically unknown.
On the Pacific Coast all the ordinary
transactions of business are in actual
coin. With all due respect for the su-
perior wisdom Of the effete East. we
submit that the California method is
the best. For silver it is certainly much
the best Whatever may be the men
ace of silver infiation.' it is not
menace up to the quantity which the
people will daily use in actual coin.
And as for gold, there is no such thing
as manipulating the yellow metal for
speculation on infnteSimal margins
when it is circulating as an ordinary
medium of exchange. It is customary
in every part of the civilized world to
use silver for small transactions, gold
for larger ones, and paper only for the
largest. 1t is customary also in Cali
fornia and ought to be customary
everywhere. If there were no paper
money issued of smaller denomination
than $40 it would be a good thing for
the stability of all our currency.
WOMEN AND GALLANTRY.
Stockton Record: There does not ap-
pear to be any more reason why man
should take off his hat when woman
enters an elevator than that he should
take it off when she enters horse car
In fact, it is very difficult to draw the
line in the ordinary intercourse of life
and business just where he should take
his hat off, In Washington it is said
everybody takes his hat off when
woman steps aboard the lift, but in
New York only 80 per cent of the men
uncover, and in Brooklyn they have
abandoned the habit altogether Wher'
ever business throws the sexes together
on equal terms of industry gallantry
Of the old fashioned sort must be
