GROVER cLEVELANDISMS

A public office is a public trust.
Even the patriotic sentiment of our
people is not an adequate substitute
lfOr sound financial policy.
| The right Of the government TO eX-
act tribute from the citizen is limited
to its actual necessities, and every
cent taken from the people beyond
that required for their protection by
the government is no better than rob-
berry
am not blinded to the fact that
the livery of democratic tariff reform
has been stolen and worn in the ser
vice of republican protection. The
trusts and COmbinatiOns-the COM
munism Of pelf-whOse Vaccinations
have prevented us from reaching the
success We deserved. should not be
forgotten or forgiven.
I believe in an open and sturdy
craftsmanship which secures the Iegiti-
mate advantages Of party supremacy:
but parties We're made by the people.
and I am unwilling. knowingly, to give
my assent TO measures purely parti-
san which Will sacrifice or endanger
their interests.
The presidency of the United States
IS the repository of the peoples will
and power. Within its vision should be
the protection and welfare of the
humblest citizen, and it should catch
from the remotest corner of the land
the plea of the people for justice and
for right
Any cause that is worth fighting for
is worth fighting for to the end.
While it is a grievous thing TO con-
template the two greatest English
speaking peoples of the world as be
ing otherwise than friendly competi-
TOYS in the onward march of civiliza-
ton and strenuous and worthy rivals
in all the arts Of peace, there is no
calamity which q nation can invite
which equals that which follows a SUI
pine submission to wrong and inius-
tice. and the consequent loss OF ma
ti0nal self-respect and honor beneath
which is shielded and defended
peoples safety and greatness.
Public officers are the servants and
agents Of the people We may. |
think. reduce to quite simple elements
the duty which public servants owe
by constantly bearing in mind that
they are put in place to protect the
rights Of the people. to answer their
needs as they arise and to expend for
their benefit the money drawn from
them by taxation.

meeting of growers at Tampa several
days ago indicates that there will no

here is a clipping from Los Angeles
lCaL) correspondent in the New Yorl,
Packer: "a trip through the ORANGE
growing section contiguous to los
angeles has developed the fact that
there is considerable question as 70
the size OF the crop for the coming
season. The late spring. which was
usually wet, followed by the extreme
neat OF the past week or ten davs is
causing large amount of falls. some
OF the growers report that thew do

Special to The Herald.
SAN BERNARDINO July 6.-But a
comparatively small amount of hay is
being sold by the ranchers to the deal
ers and prices are soaring high. Those
who have limited amount and who
have stock to feed are taking no
chances by selling at this time and
Some of those who have a large
amount are selling only q portion of
the crop, and some of the ranchers
are selling none at all but are storing
in hopes of getting better prices later.
Fine oat hay is bringing around SIT
q ton net to the rancher, while dealers
are getting better prices, as a margin
for their profit Barley and alfalfa
are selling for a little less than the oat.
Quality is excellent this season, as
most of the growth did not reach
very great height because Of the lack
of moisture in the ground, making
practically every part of 1t good for
feed.
From the northern section there is
not any great amount of hay, as COM
pared with other years, and but little
is being shipped into this section. Inn
perial is growing a far crop of alfalfa.
There is plenty of irrigation there but
the cost of shipping from the desert
points brings the price up to the point
demanded by the growers here.
Up in the Banning and Beaumont
districts and in the Perris and Hemet
section there was not a large crop.
Probably a district which grew better
feed than any other was in the Yucaipe
valley, but there, as well as in other
sections, the growers do not desire to
dispose of their product, except for
top notch prices.
