Mr.. BRYAN'S PLAN.

It is alleged that Mr. Bryan has never
and sneaking the troops out of the Phil
ippines. Then, in the name OF the
Prophet. what is he blowing about? 1t
is replied by himself that we should
tell the Filipinos what sort of a gov
ernment is proposed for them, that they
may accept it or reject it. His cham
pions add that he does not favor with
drawing the army until peace is re-
stored. So, then, it is moral suasion, is
it, that is to secure peace under the
menace of a retained army? How does
this differ from aggressive interfer-
ence? But at Bardwell, KY, Mr.. Bryan
appealed to the people to demand IN
stant reduction of the army to a peace
basis of 25000 men. If that were ac-
complished, what would become of the
army in the Philippines, when it IS
conceded that $4,000 men are barely
government property and guard terri
toriaI frontiers? Mr.. Bryan assailed
the President in his speeches at Chi
cago and Bardwell for conducting a
war against the Filipinos; yet he is
perfectly aware that the President is
following the direction of Congress. The
peace treaty gave us the Philippines.
That instrument was ratified, and. the
President has no more right than has
Mr.. Bryan to abandon property thus
acquired, and turn it over to arother
claimant. Nor has he any power to
say to the Filipinos what kind of a
government we propose for them-that
power resides with Congress alone. The
one duty of the President is to main
tain the authority Of the United States.

The movement on the part of the
commercial bodies and wholesale mer-
chants of the Pacific Coast to secure for
this part of the country the appoint
ment to the vacancy on the Interstate
Commerce Commission is one Of the
greatest Importance and should be
prosecuted with the utmost vigor. No
branch of the Federal Government so
vitally affects the interests of our peo-
pie, for to that commission is referred
everything pertaining to interstate
commerce. Our claim to a representa- :
tive of this coast on the board is just
one, for without such a representative
our vast commercial interests are IN
constant jeopardy. The great CONNER
cial centers of the East will no doubt
do all they can to prevent the appoint
ment of any man from the Pacific
Coast, but the people Of California
should stand as unit in favor Of such
appointment.

State and Coast Opinions on Sub
jects Of Living News
Interest.

Los Angeles Herald: The latest
theory accounting for the pardon of
Dreyfus is that of opium poisoning. He
had been given various drugs while
confined at Devils Island to relieve his
sufferings until the habit had been
thoroughly formed, and then the sooth
ing potion had been suddenly with
drawn. The result was mental and
physical ruin. His nervous incapacity
was displayed all through his trial at
Rennes, and it is claimed that the miti-
eating circumstances mentioned by the
three judges for his acquittal meant
only that he was incapable of making a
defense. The fate of Dreyfus, it is pre-
dicted, will be to perish in a few years,
not from the crueltieS inflicted upon
him. but from an effort made for a
time to mitigate his sufferings, and to
the fruits of this effort he owes, it is
claimed, the mercy finally extended to
him. But this story, like all other
stories told about Dreyfus, is destined
| to become at last involved in confusion
and contradiction.
MEXICO.
Santa Rosa ress-Democrat: The an
nual message of President Diaz to the
Mexican Congress seems to indicate
that the country is in a very prosper
Gus condition and making remarkable
progress. President Diaz notes in this
interesting document that there has
been large increase in the Federal
telegraph and postoffice services which
is itself an evidence of increased in
telligence and business activity; that
manufacturing is growing rapidly and
that the exports for the year, espe-
cially of mineral products, were phe-
nomenally large. AS the revenues have
swelled to more than four times the
| amount reached in 1S72-73, Mexico's
wealth is multiplying in all lines Of
trade and industry. With a population
of 100000 or 100000, land of
marvellous resources, growing indus
tries. strong treasury, firm and
skillful administration, Mexico appears
to be forging rapidly to the front.

Oakland Tribune: The plan as at

will be asked to act upon it in behalf
of the people of the State. In order to
avoid any political entanglements such

claim the credit for the work for its
