Sing n song o. summer
Wind warm and sweet,
Crickcts crying an day
I'm the bending wheat.
Plums purpilng on the Dough
Grapes on the ylnc
Apples red and yellow
In the August shine.
Sing a song o. summer,
Elder blossoms white,
Hay lying odorous
In the dazzling light.
Creek runs I'm shadows
Underneath the noon
And, oh, the nightly magic
OF the waning moon.
Sing n song o. summcrl
Ina the shady grass
You and 1 together
Hear the bees pass:
Sail away together
A hundred miles high
With The circ'iug swallows
In o. cl0ud.ess sky.

Contra Costa Gazette: At the outset
of the struggle in South Africa several
questions in connection with it will
suggest themselves to the world. What
will be the immediate result of the
war? What will be its ultimate conse-
-quences on the politics of the African
continent? How will it affect the atti-
tude of the other great nations toward
England? Finally, what influence will
it have on the worlds business condi-
ton? Each of these queries is rather
difficult to answer with any confidence.
1t would seem that the vast British
Empire ought to be able to crush the
South African Republic and the Orange
Free State in few months at the
outside In the war of 1SS0-S1, when
the Beers were victorious, Gladstone, a
man of peace, who was also opposed to
the imperial idea, was at the head OF
the British Government, and his truce
with the Beers after their triumphs Of
Tended a large proportion of his coun-
trymen. The present Premier, though
also a peace man, is an imperialist, and
in his Ministry there is the most pro-
nounced jingo whom England has
known in any high position since Pal
merston and Disraeli-Colonial Secre-
tary Chamberlain. No one need doubt

nerce, among the several States, OF

any such contract or engage in any

This law was repealed by the Demo-
cratic Congress that followed, which
enacted the Wilson law in 1894, that
contained no provision for Furnishing
trusts, except among importers who
have never been organized. Still fur
ther the. Democrats and Silver Repub-
licans until now have had control of
the United States Senate and have
made it impossible to re-enact the anti
trust provision OF the Mckinley law.
The present tariff law was enacted by
compromising with the Silver Senators.
It is also q noteworthy fact that most
of the trusts which were not brought
into existence under Cleveland's first
administration. have been formed since
the Mckinley law was repealed. TAX
ing all things into consideration which
party, by the record it has made, is
entitled to be considered the antitrust
party? Certainly not the party which
claims Mr.. Bryan as its pride and chief
headlight.

CLIMATE AND WINTER.
Redwood City Gazette: What kind
climate this is In San Mateo County,
AS autumn approaches, the skies frown
a week or two before they allow the
rain to fall, and after the rain the sun
appears again with an apology for not
having been able to put In an appear
ance. Farmers are always given timely
warning as to the approach OF the VIM
ter rains There is no other State In
the Union where there Is such an ex-
tended and such a favorable season for
harvesting the crops of grain and fruit.
The promise of wet winter grows
with the age of the fall months. About
everyone is now prepared for 1t, except
a few grain growers who are losers to
some extent by the early rains. Al
ready the grass Is showing above
ground and promise Of green feed for
stock early In winter is very cheering.
A WISE SUGGESTION.
Ukiah Republican Press: A corre-
spondent makes some suggestions
worth noting in the following commu-
nication: While reading the communi-
cation from the Secretary Of the State
Board of Trade, relative to the magnifi-
cent donation from our late fair, and
urging the adyisability of descriptive
pamphlet of the county, it brought to
mind the advice of Professor Samuel B.
Green of the University of Minnesota.
When interviewed as to his impressions
of our State he said: "The citizens
have met are plainly progressive and
businesslike, and alive to the import
ance of working together to secure the
best results. They have been most kind
and cordial in helping US to get an
adequate idea Of their grand State
This State seems full of the greatest
possibilities for the trained horticultur-
list and agriculturist. think that much
attention should be paid to teaching
the principles of good agriculture. Your
agricultural college at Berkeley is un-
doubtedly doing good work, but is toe
high to help the practical man who
must get to work early in life"
SUGAR BEETS.
Suisun Courier: Despite rather un-
successful results of sugar beet cult
ure this year attributable to the dry
season, the California and Hawaiian
Sugar Refining Company is not discour-
aged. On Tuesday Mr.. Herbig, repre-
sentative Of the above named company
was in Suisun and leased several tracts
| Of land for the culture of beets during
the coming season. The company in
tends to lease about 5000 acres in the
vicinity Of Suisun and Cordelia- On
Tuesday Mr. Herbig secured the follow
| ing leases on behalf of the company:
r. D. Robbins 400 acres, j. C. Peyton
11S acres, B. F. Way 80 acres and G.
Tomassini 500 acres In the vicinity OF

THE ANTITRUST PARTY.
humboldt Standard: Just now the
Bryan party Is trying to establish a
reputation as the antitrust party.
though some Of the greatest trusts
were established under Cleyeland's
administration and there are as many
democrats as Republicans in all the
great trusts which have been estab-
nsneo. SUCH men as Havemeyer, Hen
~ a. Fayne, Perry and Oliver Belmont,
Jonn X. Mclean, Calvin S. Brice (now
ueceaseo), William c. Whitney and
hosts OF other rich Democrats have q
nand In the trusts business and have
grown wealthy from the profits of
great corporations Trusts, like any
o.uer BUSINESS concerns, are non-par-
usan end they should be dealt with as
non-partisan and in a non-partisan
way. The remedy for the evils which
great corporations or trusts bring upon
the country is not in political plat
Iorms and noisy demonstrations from
the stump and rostrum. But il It
comes 10 a showdown" the Republi-
cans have far the best of the argument
10 snow that their party, If either,
should be considered the antitrust
party. In 1880 the Republican party en-
acted what is known as the MCKINLEY
bill into law and that law contained
this strong antitrust provision:

the Democratic nominee for that office.
Here, then, is a man opposing Mr.. De

things to all men, and having failed to
secure Office in one direction, goes over
to the opposition and contends for q
lower position. Mr.. March, the other
opponent Of Mr.. De Ligne, was a mem
