Whereas, it Inns been freely charged
during the last campaign that the
Department Of Grain Inspection has
become corrupt; that the inspection
has been conducted in the interest of
the buyer as against the shipper and
producers; that grain would be in.
spected in rs No. 2 or 3 and inspect
ed out as No. I; that the dockuge
has been unreasonable unjust and
excessive; that the Department has
employed incompetent and corrupt
men as inspectors; that the only
qualification necessary to secure a
place ON the force was a political
pull; that large number of men
have been employed that have per-
formed no other service for the
State, save and except that they
have regularly drawn their salary;
that the freight charges on farm
produce has been extortionate, une-
quail and unjust; that the distribu.
ton of cars for the shipment OF grain
has been unequally distributed and
often withheld from independent
shippers; that the public elevators
licensed by the State have formed
unjust and corrupt combinations to
buy grain at one or two grades be-
low what it actually was and to
take excessive dockage;
And, Whereas, 1t has been equally
freely charged that the Irvine Trust
has secured control of the sale of the
Prison made Irvine to the detriment
OF the consumers: that tho Prison
Managers have connived at aud
been corruptly interested in the pro-
fits thus derived; that the farmers
have been unable individually to OBJ
tain the Irvine adjust and reasonable
prices, and that the manager has
changed the method of distributing
the Irvine, thereby making it practi-
cally impossible to obtain twine at
cost as in former years:
Now therefore, 1e it resolved, by
the House, the Senate concurring,
that a Joint Committee consisting
Of five members of the House and
four members OF the Senate, to be
appointed by the presiding officers
Of these respective bodies, shall con-
stitute a committee, to thoroughly
investigate all these charges and re-
port their findings to their respec-
tive bodies by bill or otherwise, at
their earliest possible convenience;
and be it further
Resolved, that the Committee shall
have full power to send for persons
and papers and to employ a COM
petent stenographer..

Only those who have lived in small
towns, says the Hokah Chief, can
realize the power and fascination of
the home paper. 1t occupies a posi-
ton that no other publication can till.
The home paper comes first always.
Everybody looks through it's columns
to sec if his or her name is in the
paper" Every bit of gossip is read
and discussed. Sometimes it is a
birth, sometimes a marriage. No
matter what it is, every name men,
toned is familiar to all, and for this
one reason alone the home paper is
priced above and beyond anything
the LITERARY fellows in the city can
produce 1t doesn't take long to read
the home paper for there isn't much
in it, but what is read satisfies the
mind in way that no other paper
can. It's like drinking when one is
thirsty, it reaches the spot. There is
time to read the advertisements and
they are read as we'll as the news.
Every business man in every town
where paper is printed should be
represented in that paper. If he is
not, it is he, and not the publisher,
who is the loser.

THE CAMPAIGN IN OHIO.

HIO is no longer an October State" and
( \ consequently the campaigns there are no
\ longer watched ntently for signs and por-
tents OF what the general elections in November will
bring forth Neither is it this year the doubtful
State it has been in former times, for all prospects
indicate Republican victory. Nevertheless the con-
test there is interesting for it is very be the
most exciting OF the year.
Each OF the greater States of the Union has some
characteristic which distinguishes its politics from
that of any other State The characteristic of Ohio
is faction fighting within party lines Hardly cam
pagn takes place there which marked to a great
degree by personal antagonisms and these frequently
have much to do anything else in determining
the result at the polls.
The Republicans Of the State this year are fairly
well united and yet it is safe say that some of the
men who were SO active in the effort to defeat the
election OF Hanna to the United States Senate will
knife the ticket this fall by way OF revenge In the
Democratic party the factions are sure to rage bit
terly, for John R. Mclean, the nominee for Gov
ernor has been most desperate faction fighter him
self in times past and bushwhacked Thurman and
Pendleton in the days OF their supremacy with a
vigor that finally defeated them and drove them from
office
1t is easy to determine what ambition has
prompted Mclean to set himself up for Governor
THIS year. Tor ne appears 10 nave assumed the leader
ship OF forlorn hope and put himself in position
where the friends OF Thurman and Pendleton can
even up old scores. He has not been regarded as Z
fool in times past however vicious he may have been
and hence some have drawn the conclusion that he
sees chance win and is willing to run the risk
because ii successful it will advance his ambition 20
become the candidate OF his party for the Presidency
next year
The platform on which he has chosen to stand is
OF the most extraordinary claptrap constructions
ever put together by the Democratic party ir
these days OF Organism 1t reafirms the wild doc
trnes OF the Chicago platform and emphatcay' in
dorses the demand for the free coinage of silver at the

secret and vicious alliance in evidence between

this nation may become involved in with foreign
nations

NATIVE SONS AND VOLUNTEERS

y OMISSION DAY will receive this year one OF
I the most glorious celebrations in the annals OF
the State. That much is already assured by
the preparations that have been made by the Native
Sons and Native Daughters, into whose hands the
preparations for the observance of the annual festival
have been committed by common consent in all parts
OF the State.
The chief scene of the celebration will be at Santa
Cruz, where arrangements have been made grand
scale. Along with the Native Sons will go the men
Jt the First Regiment OF California Volunteers, whose
service in the Philippines has added uster
tn, history OF the State and augmented the PATRIOTS
pride of its people That their presence will add to
the enthusiasm OF the occasion goes without saying,
for the ardor OF the reception given them their
arrival in this city attests the honor in which they
held by the great mass of their fellow countrymen.
On each returning Admission day we rejoice in the
greatness and prosperity OF the commonwealth and
with fond pride the many features that
dear TO its people and excite the admiration of the
rest OF the Union On this occasion we shall have
reason exut also in the proof that has been given
that the youth of the State is in every way worthy OF
the noble heritage that is theirs and equal to the
arduous requirements of the lofty destiny that awaits
it as the empire State of the Pacific California can
to-day regard her sons with much pride they
regard her In the fields OF war as well in the pur-
suits OF peace they have upheld her and illus
trated her devotion the Union and to the welfare
OF humanity
Santa Cruz has robed her in estal array for
the reception OF the Native Sons and Volunteers.
The beautiful city by the has been the chosen spot
OF many a gathering and the scene OF many festi-
val, but for none were more brilliant preparations
made than for the visitors who to celebrate
within her precincts the anniversary of the admission
OF California to the Union. 1t is to be great day
in her history, and her people we'll aware of it.
A genuine Californian welcome awaits every visitor
and il is foregone conclusion the celebration will be
in all respects one of social enjoyment as well as Of
patriotic enthusiasm

COMMUNICATIONS
OUR FUTURE TRADE
WITH THE PHILIPPINES

To the Editor of The Call-Sir: There is
no Californian so lacking in good sense
as not to wish that San Francisco's trade
with the Philippines may multiply ana
still increase" On the question how best
to secure that desirable end opinions
differ
Some are impressed with the idea that
trade necessarily follows. the flag. Were
this the case Spain should in the past
have had the lion's share OF Philippine
trade. The figures given in TINS year
United States Agricultural Year BOOK
show that such was not the case Great
Britain had nearly "a per cent; Spain
merely IS per cent, while the United states
share was about 10 per cent only lhls
current years figures will OF course snow
an abnormal increase 1t will be well Tor
our merchants to note that TINS year )
returns will be necessarily abnormal. Inc
goods exported from San Francisco have
been in the main for the supply OF our
own citizens temporarily residing IN Ine
islands either as soldiers or civilians. The
liouor trade is an example of this, the
statement having been made that since
the American invasion 432 saloons have
been opened in Manila alone. OF course
with the return of our army this trade
would be likely to discontinue.
The general trade of the islands would
follow in the main its usual channels,
which is simply saying the products
would follow the best demand-the coun.
tries wanting most Manila hemp would
buy most Manila hemp, and so on with
the sugar and other products, unless
change of tariff caused alteration. The
Philippine demand for imported goods
would be very much the same as before
the war, unless consumption is diminish
ed by a serious diminution of consumers
slaughtered in war, or by the impoverish-
ment of the residue from the wastes and
discoura gements of war.
Probably out best chance of holding
and increasing our trade is to make the
Filipinos our friends as rapidly and ef-
fectually as may be. by assuring them
their entire independence. Gratitude for
benefits coaferred is usually a more po-
tent factor in inducing friendly inter-
course than is hatred and lust for revenge
consequent on injuries suffered. The con-
sumption of tea in Boston was not IN
creased by King Georges pig-headed op-
preston America free and friendly is
alike Brtain's mart and Britain's gran
ary. Filipnos free and friendly will be
not only far more creditable, but far more
profitable to America than Filipinos sui
len, conquered and impoverished from
protracted war!
That we may yet use such policy as
Funston recommends of less gunpowder
and more conciliation is the desire, sir,
of many Californans, including yours

A CORRECTION,

Asst Monday The Call, in reviewing the in
trigues now under way to bring about the cleo
l. ton Of Dan Burns to the United States Senate
at an extra session OF the Legislature published an
estimate made by well-informed member OF that
body OF the way the Republican Senators and Assem-
blymen would probably vote if the extra session were
held. In the estimate certain members classified
as being in favor OF caucus, some against it and
some doubtful.
. In the article in which the estimate was given The
Call pointed out that it differed in some respects
from information The Cali had obtained from other
sources and therefore could not be accepted alto
gether accurate. Despite that statement some OF our
contemporaries appear to have taken it the est-
mate OF The Call itself, and refer to it for the
purpose OF dssipatng that
The Fresno Democrat, in discussing the subject
makes upon it many comments, some good, some bad,
and some Indifferent Two OF these are worth
notice In the first place the Democrat joins With The
Call and the press generally in condemning the pro-
posed extra session threatened wrong to the
State and the taxpayers In the second place it points
out that in the estimate made by the member OF the
Legislature and published in The Call Senator Rowell
OF Fresno is put the doubtful list and says "The
Democrat does not believe that there can be any
doubt in Dr. Rowers mind. He has in person and
through his paper championed another mans cause
The Senator from this district has at least probiy and
consistency in his record up to date and it is difficult
to credit the suppostion that he would favor an
extra session ii he entertained the fantest idea that
this State would, as has been claimed, be disgraced
by the outcome
The Call cordially approves the commentator thus
given to the irmness and consistency of Senator
Rowel 1t is not at all likely that he is doubtful
such an issue as is presented in this The fact
that he and others wrongly classified in the list
was the reason why The Call careful to point
out at the time that it could not be fully relied upon
1t was published solely as part of the news OF the
day to show what calculations being made on this
question of so much interest to the people

DENNERYS RETIREMENT.

DUBLIC sentiment has accomplished one victory
~ over the Board OF Health by forcing the resig-
nation OF Leon Dennery from the position OF
secretary to the board and compelling it in selecting
his successor 10 choose man OF very different moral
character. To that extent there will be general
feeling OF qualification among all good citizens over
the announcement OF Dennerys retirement
The board however, in relieving itself OF the Dan
Burns secretary did not have the courage or perhaps
the inclination to sever itself wholly from the pot-
cal bosses with whom it is associated and in whose
service it has been shamelessly active. To hll the
vacancy caused by the enforced retirement OF the un-
savory member OF the Burns gang it chose man
who while personally far superior to Dennery, IS
politically not much better, since he Is representa-
tive OF the railroad ring in politics. Thus as the
Burns man goes out the Herrn steps IN, and all
that the public gains IS the satisfaction OF knowing
that popular Indignation has been felt by the board
and has induced that body to clean itself
tent.
As it now stands the board is thorough railroad
organization 1t was appointed at the dictation OF
the railroad by Governor subseryient to the railroad
bosses. Is made up OF men who are either railroad
physicians themselves or are closely connected with
such PHYSICIANS and is as ready as ever to the
patronage OF the Health Department for the purpose
of advancing the fortunes OF the push who serve the
railroad in politics.
The situation. however, Is not as bad it 1t
is not to be doubted that the retirement OF DenneTy
was brought about by the severity OF the popular con-
demnation OF his appointment in the first place That
much OF success gives encouragement for continuing
the fight against the efforts to make the Board OF
Health source OF political corruption instead OF a
guardian OF public health. In the end complete vic
tory Will be with the people.

OUR DREYFUS CASE.

N ECLARATIONS recently made by the counsel
] for Colonel Carter have had the effect OF divid-
- ing public sentiment on the case and giving to
the situation aspect bearing in many respects a
striking resemblance to the Dreyfus In the
American in the French affair have officer Of
the army tried by court-martal and condemned, a
charge OF wrongful conviction brought about by a
giant conspiracy, a demand for a trial in the
civil courts, and array of evidence put forth by
attorneys OF good standing support their extra
ordinary assertions OF injustice the part OF the gen
eral staff OF the army.
Before the recent declarations made the press
OF the country unanimous in calling for the pun
ishment OF Carter in accordance with the findings 81
the martial The fact that for nearly two years
since his conviction he has been permitted full free
dom and full pay has been regarded as public scan
dal. 1t was everywhere cited as proof that while
small offenders are punished the larger rascals whose
robberes up into the millions of dollars, go free
by of corrupt influences exerted by powerful
friends At present however, considerable num-
Der of the leading newspapers of the country in
the neglect to punish Carter an evidence that the
authorities are by means satisfied he rightly
condemned.
The counsel for Carter contend that detail of
officers such as composed the court-nartial
terly unfit to handle such complex question: and
tGat SuCn OF tlelr perSOndl
acter and Intentions by reason of their lack of
training and competency organized to convict
Thus the argument for the defense is based upon the
untness of the martial to try the case the al
legged irregularty OF the procedure, the competency
OF the witnesses heard for the prosecution and the
evidence elected The brief states explicitly and
phatically that there has been no attempt delay
sideration of the that appeal has been made
in the defendants behalf by his counsel or friends to
the President anybody else for mercy, but the
contrary, that effort has been seduously made to
get final decision; and full responsibility is accepted
by counsel for the silence Of the defendant in regard
to the charges made.
On the showing made there has already sprung up
strong sentiment in favor oi a rehearing of the case
by a civil tribunal. AS the New York Times says
concerning the assertion of Cartes counsel that he
is entitled to acquitta without retria: Whether
or not accept his conclusion that there is no
ground for the retral OF Captain Carter we must ac-
cept his conclusion that there is no ground for his
rerial by courtartial The review of the case makes
this very plain II Captain Carter has committed an
oense it is offense cognizable by civil courts OF
justice and to these his accuers should be referred
