regulating railroad fares it should also
establish standard price for coal,

CaIifOfr7ians Are Tifsimg
OF Machine Politicians

HTHEN an institution like the Califor-
wv MIA Safe Deposit and Trust COM
W pany stands convicted by public
sentiment OF treason to its trusting de-
positors, the public expresses it's righteous
indignation that such treachery should ex-
ist. More than that, public sentiment
Justly condemns the administration of
law which permits such treachery to exist
In the face Of public provision for a safe
guarding of the interests of depositors.
1t is a significant fact that throughout
this money stringency not a single bank
has failed in which funds were handled
In legitimate ways, with the exception
possibly of one or two instances where
timorous depositors under misapprehen-
sion have brought on a run such as no
institution could withstand
The Los Angeles Herald, commenting
on the disposition OF the public to de-
mand the speedy prosecution and convic-
ton of the trustee who robs his confid-
ing client, takes occasion to point out a
greater treachery through which we all
are the sufferers. There is something
wrong with the accepted standards of a
people who permit themselves to be sys-
tematically imposed on by few unscrup-
ulous and designing men. Such is the
fact in this state.
The Herald calls attention to the fact
that Governor Gillett is actively engaged
In running down the men who, by their
slothfulness, incompetency or worse, per-
Los Angeles herald., 1907-12-26

only all logically due them as pro-
ducers but an additional Is to 40 per
cent as the result Of the protection af-
forded to them by the tariff laws-who
will argue that real wages must come
down as they once have gone UP?
In the last analysis we must hold the
high protective tariff primarily respon-
slble. The excessive tariff levied upon
foreign goods imported into this coun-
try is enabling capital invested here In
certain industries to take for itself a
much larger proportion of the aggre-
gate production than 1t would be pos
sible for it to secure if foreign-pro-
duced articles were allowed to compete
here on more nearly equal terms. Even
at the prevailing high prices for manu-
factured articles of almost all kinds,
the consumer of these products Is often
compelled to wait long time to have
an order filled, and the manufacturer
explains the delay on the ground of an
excessive demand-a demand so great
as TO be beyond his ability to supply 1t
promptly. At the same time this manu-
facturer may have agents all over the
world seeking markets--for the same
articles the American consumer Is wait
ing for--at price sometimes 90 per
cent below the one established and
maintained in this country.
If these things are true--and no we'll
informed man will undertake to deny
then-the man who advocates con-
tinuance Of the conditions under which
Americans are now employing them
selves is either dishonest or in error.
Furthermore 1t is unquestionably dis
honest to demand that wages-money
wages--shall be lowered until the
market prices of the commodities pro-
duced by labor reach an approximately
normal basis and the wages" OF
monopoly suffer reduction equal with
that demanded Of the wages OF labor.
Los Angeles herald., 1907-12-26

mitted the affairs of the California Safe
Deposit and Trust company to be carried
on as they were, while "his feet grow
cold when the crimes of the Southern Pa
cif1c are mentioned in his presence"
1t is a much pleasanter task for the
Governor to run down the iniquity of a
few slothful salary grabbers on the bank
commission against whom public senti-
ment Is strong, than to take an interest,
as governor of the state, in any reform
work In which his political creators and
intimates are culprits.
The public has no reason to expect sim
cere reform effort from man whose
nomination was secured on the terms
which obtained at Santa Cruz, when Her
rim and the Southern Pacific selected
Governor Gillett. He was not selected
blindly, and the voters who elected him
have, no right to expect a man so Sc
lected to become in office the represen-
tative of popular rights as against the
Southern Pacific and its own political
machine.
The state of California is ripe for an
open and successful revolt on the part
of her long-suffering people against the
kind of politics which has dominated,
controlled and politically damned the peo-
pie of this state. The people of Cali
fornia are tired of the stripe Of politi-
clan who takes his program from the po-
litical headquarters of the corporation
which has usurped the functions of the
people-Pasadena News.
