CalifOrnia's Golden Wedding

The name Of California suggests to
the imagination a strange country on
the edge OF the world, where every
thing Is tinged with gold. Ii also
reminds US Of bygone era of romance
ana adventure when happy, gentle
race, undisturbed by The Saxon's
masterful discomfort, peopled the
western shores Of this continent.
The present reality fulllls our
dreams in many ways. Here are
majestic mountains, on whose abrupt
'iopes forest giants grow, and streams
are born, and gold is mined. Here
placid seas mirror almost cloudless
skies. Flowers illuminate the earth
with flames Of vivid color, and lus-
cious fruits abound. Big cattle
ranches, enormous sheep pastures,
immense wheat fields, great cities,
thriving towns, huge steamships and
throbbing locomotives, supply the in-
dusJrial note. Vast, distant, peace
ful and much to be desired, a country
having a romantic history, a delight

OLIVER TWIST
OF THE TRUSTS.
Mckinley Seems a Willing
Tool For the Robber
Combines.

On the side Of President Mckinley It
is to be said that he is manly in some
Of his faults as well as his virtues.
There is such a thing as standing too
devotedly by friends, but the world
prefers it to ingratitude, and it also
prefers the man who is foolishly gen.
erous with his money to one who is
close and misery. In his domestic life
also Mckinley is a model Of excellence,
and of his bravery there can be no
doubt, for he enlisted at 10 years of
age and has never had much to say
about his honorable record as a soldier.
1t is easy to imagine what his opinion
is of the much vaunted exploit Of his
associate on the ticket, who shot a
helpless enemy when the latter was
running away.
McKlnley's chief characteristic, how
ever, and the one which impartial his
tory will in all probability make the
most prominent, is his vacillation as to
principle. He has been a free silver
man and a gold man, free trade with
Porto Rico man and a tariff on Porto
Rico man. He has been for peace when
the nation cried for war and for war
when nearly everybody was sick Of
bloodshed. He has been for and against
expansion, a sphinx on trusts and a
professed friend of American labor
while using the United States army to
Cypress and coerce the labOrer. He has
been man Of putty, with good inten-
tons, and has been lifted up like poor
Oliver Twist to open the way for rob-
Der trusts into the homes Of the people.
He is not himself thief; neither was
Oliver Twist; but so far as results are
concerned he might as well be.
Mckinley makes a perfect factotum
for the trusts, and he seems willing to
fill the role. He probably once had
more creditable aspirations, but his
nearly four years in the White House
have shown that he is completely sub
servient to trust interests and is their
prompt and willing agent. If McKln-
ley should be reelected, It would not
be on account of, but in spite of, his
record Of the past four years.-New
York News.

paign In Maryland.
The Democratic League of Maryland
has opened headquarters in Baltimore
and begun a campaign for the success
in city and state for the Democratic
national ticket.
"The object Of the league" said DR..
A. L. Blessing, the president, lis to
concentrate and make effective for
campaign purposes the forces in Mary
land opposed to militarism, Imperialism
and trusts. We are now in correspond
eEce with 5000 members in Baltimore
and Maryland, and we invite all who
believe in preserving the integrity of
the republic to make common cause
with US for the success Of the Demo
cratic ticket. 1t is not necessary that
one to be a member should have voted
the Democratic ticket in the past or
that he shall pledge himself to always
vote the Democratic ticket In the fu-
ture.
"The Democratic League Of Mary
land has been organized to fight nc
party. The idea is to supplement the
work Of the regular organization. We
have taken the field thus early because
we believe it essential that cam
paign Of education should begin al
once and continue until the votes are
counted in November. While the prin
clpal work Of the league will be in
Baltimore city, We have already laid
plans for organizing auxiliary leagues
in every county"
