POLITICAL TIDE TURNING DEMOCRAT

The political tide is now turning
democratic and the day when the
democratic party must take charge
of this country's affairs is almost at
hand were declarations made by
Woodrow Wilson, president of
Princeton university in a speech at
the democratic dinner in Elizabeth,
N. j., few nights ago. Mr.. Wilson
outlined the character of Legislation
which the democrats should give the
country to meet the present economic
problems. In this connection he
said:
II do not NEAR of course to be
guilty of egotism and audacity of
putting forth a program of specific
measures, but | do think it possible
to state the character we should
wish to give to legislation. In tho
first place we should wish not merely
to curb the trusts and above all we
should not wish to regulate them in
such a way as will make them either
partners or creaturs of the govern
ment itself. We should wish to square
their wheel action and responsibility
with the general interest regarding
them not as objects in themselves.
but merely as conveniences in u
economic life and development.
Recent proposals of regulation have
looked too much like a wholesale
invasion by government itself of the
field of business management.
Our regulation of public in
terests must be legal regulation and
not direct management.
I'm the second place, il is clearly
u duty so soon as we get the OPP
portunity to take the government
out OF the business of granting
favors and privileges of arranging
the laws so that this, or the other
group Of men should make large
profits out of their business and
draw IL back to the function Of
safe guarding rights, general, not
particular rights, the rights which
make not so much for the pros
perity" which enables small groups
of individuals to pile up enormous
fortunes, as for a general stimula-
ton, a universal opportunity of
enlightenment and justice. | am

clear that in fact it has long since
as dealt with by congress. ceased I,
be a policy of protection and becom,
a policy of patronage.
"We N told that the present ex.
traordinarily high prices of com
modities is due not to the tariff. but
to the fact that we are not produc.
ing enough TO keep up with the daily
demand, and that this is particularly
true with regard to the things we
eat and have daily need Of.
Take meat for example AMI see
what the truth is. The truth is that
the meat trust has been able to con-
troll the meat market to such an ex-
tent that scores Of ranchmen have
been driven out of the cattle raising
business because it was improbable.
The short supply of meat is due to
monopoly created by the meat trust.
1t is true therefore that the supply
is short compared with the vast de-
uand, but it has been made short
~ the operation of a trust inquest
t'nably fostered by the Legislation
osthe government.
In the third place, it is one of
TIN chief duties of the democratic
parry to initiate such reform, alike
in lcal and in federal government
as will secure economy, respon-
sibiliC. honesty, fidelity.
"AA finally it seems to me that
it is the duty of the democratic party
to challenge the people by every
possibleneans to depend upon them
selves rther than upon fostering
powers ldged in groups of individ-
uals. Thee have been very en-
couraging 7igns in recent years,
particularly'n some of our smaller
cities, that w,have at last come up
on a time whe, people are arousing
themselves to Gve over being de-
pendent upon mn whom they can-
not watch and a.e taking direct
charge at any rat Of their local
governments. Their is no reason
why this process should not extend
to the governments o. the states
and in effect to the government of
the nation.
I'm brief our program should be
a general revival of popular politics,
of common counsel, of responsible
leadership. We must supply eficient
leaders and eschew all the lower
personal objects of politics. Il is
a case of must, as we'll as a Ease of
may; a a Of necessity as well as
a case of privilege. A new day has
come. Men and measures are being

ly benefited by the organization of
the Grass Valley Irrigation district,
now in process of formation. The dis
trict plan is one of the very best ever
devised for the benefit of large areas
such as exists in the Antlers- Silt coun-
try. 1t minimizes and makes uniform
the cost of water in the community
and encourages the irrigation and till
age of every acre possible and thus
is the entire community benefited and
thus is the entire county benefited by
increased production and prosperity
and therefore increased revenue by
way of taxes to the county. The dis
trict scheme is good one and the
Grass Valley farmers will do well to
adopt it.

THE POST is a welcome visitor in

feel called upon to censor this paper
before allowing it to fall into the hands
of their children. 1t requires no spe-
cial journalistic skill or enterprise to
make story so yellow that it is
not relished by decent people. We
lave heard of recent story so rank
that even the lowest riffratf of the
town severely criticised it while it was
so vile that people with modest sensi-
bllities turned away in disgust. From
the many expressions heard on the
streets it is very evident that our peo-
pie do not appreciate bawdy house
journalism.

But we don't need this speculation as
means of livelihood. 1t simply ere
ates a spirit of unrest in the commun
ity. If you are of those gentlemen
who came here to get rich raising
land and not fruit, we would suggest
that the very best thing for You to

Grand Valley needs class of perma-
nent homeseekers. 1t needs men who
are willing TO make their living. and
their fortunes by producing good fruit
and more of it every year. You can +
do that by spending all your time chas-
ing up a prospective purchaser of your
ranch.
Now we don't mean by this to
discourage the sale of land. But we
do say, that it does not do the Grand
Valley any particular good by having
You or your neighbor sell out and go
elsewhere, Just to bring another ranch

the speculative kind of ranchers.
"There are ranches in plenty in the
valley, which must be divided up be-
fore they will come to their full pro-
ductiveness. There are scores of TWEEN

cinity, too large for one man to han

will make just as much money as his

''But you will never do it while

of the country sell your ranch and go

A GOOD DEAL of rot, bordering on
imbecility, has recently been inflicted
on the people of this vicinity in a per-
sonal and prejudiced demand for a
law authorizing judges of courts to de-
eide cases that come before them, with
out regard to the regularity of the pro
ceedings. the character of the plead
ings or the numerous blunders made by
incompetent lawyers. If the matter
were worthy of consideration by per
son of ordinary sanity it might lead
to a queer state of affairs. And after
all. why have lawyers at all? What
are they good for? Why not do away
with lawyers altogether and let the
trial judge serve as counsel for both
sides? Why not? Oh, Rats, Neighbor,

go into court just remember two things
first, have u case and then hire law

StruCts Officials to Stand

WASHINGTON, September 30.-The
United States government is in receipt
Of authentic information from its rep
resentatives in the Chinese empire, to
the effect that China is facing crisis
such as existed in the days of the Boxer
troubles, when the lives and property
of foreigners were destroyed or endan-
gered by fanatical hordes.
It is declared that China is on the
verge of an upheaval of the most Sc
rious nature, and great alarm is felt
for the safety of Americans and other
foreigners in the Chinese cities.
Instructions have been forwarded
from the state department to all Ameri-
can government officials in China to
keep the closest watch in regard to
belligerent movements and to acquaint
this government Immediately with any
indication of the approaching outbreak
officers Of the United States war fleet
in Asiatic waters have been cabled to
be prepared for instant action in the
defense of American interests at Chi
nese ports, and the American army in
the Philippines has been notified to be
ready for any emergency.
If conditions warrant, American
troops will be hurried in army trans
ports from Manila to the scene Of
action.
It was announced here today that
in case of trouble both the army and
navy forces Of the United States are
prepared to act at once.

MARINES CAN NOT
VOTE HERE At ALL
Registration Board Does Not
Book Men of the
Service.

1.-The story in the Star today is per-
fectly ridiculous, when it says that the
board of registration will register ma
rines as voters said Chairman C. F.
Chillingworth last evening.
''The board has no power whatever
to register soldiers, sailors or marines,
according to the law, and the Star cites
the very law which disproves what it
says. l make this denial now, so that
the registration office will not be flooded
by marines who have been misled by
the Star story"
AS matter Of fact, the only govern
ment employees of the federal arm whom
the registration board will allow to reg
lister are the surgeons and employees OF
the public health and marine hospital
service. The fact that the word marine
occurred in this rather long title gave
the Star the wrong clue that it meant
marines in general, and particularly the
battalion of marines stationed at Ma
rine Barracks.
The law is emphatic on the question
~ thlIHttt men Oh the army anu navy
voting, or rather not voting. The board
has also gone far enough into the ques
ton to deny the right of civil service
employees, particularly those attached to
the war department, to register and
vote. Chairman Chilliugworth states
that any man coming here with troops
although in a civil capacity, can not
procure domiciliary right to vote here
Mr., Chillingworth is wrong when he
says ''anv man coming with troops from
the United States for Hawaii is part
of the United States, and he certainly
can not ''come here when he is al
ready here.
The board has another ruling which
II IS enforcing. that soldier or sailor
or marine who was discharged from
service in July. for instance, and CON
tinues to reside here can not register.
not having lived here the required time
from a domiciliary standpoint He
dates his active residence here from
the time he was discharged. and that
much time since his discharge up to
now goes to his credit
The fifth district is registering far
ahead of the fourth district, and efforts
are being made TO rustic out the lazy
ones. The registration closes on Dc
t0ber s
