To the new party [Single Tax],
founded upon these principles,
which I conceive to be the very
soul and essence of true Democra
cy, all of the time which I can
henceforth give to the political
service* of my county will be de
voted. I shall, therefore, in the
next political campaign, do all in
my power to secure the election of
Henry George, or some other land
reformer, to the Presidency of the
United States, unless the Demo
cratic party shall, in the mean
time, become democratic by adopt
ing the principles which we have
espoused—James G. Maguire.
PIE COUNTER OR PRINCIPLE —
WHICH?
Away up in Humboldt, the Demo
cratic County Central Committee the
other day passed a resolution that ex
poses the motive of the fusion move
ment. It declared it to be the sense of
the committee that "all elements an
tagonistic to the principles and success
of the Republican party should be
united in the campaign In Humboldt
County, and the Democratic Commit
tee will make all proper efforts to that
end."
That is accurate measurement of
fusionism. It is anything to defeat The
Republican party. The "principles" of
the party are to be downed by union of
all "elements" opposed to them. After
that the "elements" will fight it out
among themselves and jower over the
division of the spoils. That is the ex
tent to which the opposition goes in
promoting a campaign.
Its assumption of principles is a
farce. If any are enunciated in the
platforms of the three "antagonistic
elements," they have all been swal
lowed up In the senseless howl of "anti
railroad."
Is H anything to awaken surprise
that Mr. J. V. "Webster, late nominee of
the Populist party for the office of Gov
ernor of California, should manifest
the disgust of a clean, fair man by
denominating the whole combination
as made up of "pie hunters"?
Governor Budd gave the snap away
only a few evenings ago when in a
speech at Metropolitan Temple, as re
ported in the "Examiner," he said:
What good does it do for a member
of our party to refuse to vote for any
of its candidates and suffer Republic
ans to capture the offices for which we
are fighting?
That's it—"the offices for which th?y
are righting." The Republican party,
however, while soliciting the people to
support its nominees for the offices,
which must be filled that orderly gov
3rnment may be preserved, has a
greater, deeper, loftier motive than the
filling of offices. It has a line of na
tional policy to promote. It has a
great leader in the Presidential chair to
maintain in the work he is doing. It
has a revival of shipping interests to
conserve, as It pledged itself to the peo
ple to do; it has the grave questions of
peace and retention of new possessions
to solve. It confronts the world over
the waters, where European Powers
are waiting to see if in this election the
States are going to rebuke or uphold
the policy of the Administration, and
they will deport themselves towards
Spain and the United States accord
ingly. <
The Republican party has upon its
shoulders the whole burden of lifting
the country' out of the slough of hard
times and setting it firmly and sur-ly
upon the highway of prosperity, &
work already largely accomplished. It
has to face the snarl and the whine of
those who cry out against "imperial
ism" and 1 are seeking to put away from
the nation the hard-won fruits of war,
and to cover back to the rule of Spain
peoples rescued from its intolerance
and inhumanity.
The Republican party demands the
fulfillment of the purpose for which the
nation entered upon the I war, and in
which many a sound and logical Dem
ocrat stood with the party. But not
one of that order i« to-day found
"fusing" with antagrmistlc elements
endeavoring to cripple the nation by
tying the hands of the Administrati n
and obstructing the path of American
expansion by the shout of "imperial
ism."
Yes, the policy of the party repre
sented by the Administration is impe
rial in its purpose. btEt, as Colonel Mc-
Clure has so eloquently said:
It is not the imperialism that is In
spired by the lust of conquest. It is
the higher and nobler imperialism that
voices the sovereign power of this na
tion, and demands the extension of our
flag and authority over the provinces
of Spain, solely that "government of
the people, by the people, ami for the
people, shall not perish from the earth."
Such is the imperialism that has be
come interwoven with the destiny of
our free government, and it will
be welcomed by our people regardless
of party lines, and will command the
commendation of the enlightened Pow
ers of the o*d world, as it raises for
the guidance of all the grandest mon
uments of freedom as the proclaimed
policy and "purpose of the noblest Gov
ernment ever reared by a man <»r
Messed byi Heaven.
To carry out that plan, to make that
policy effective to accomplish such a
work molded already, and to be fash
ioned out of the casting in the destiny
of the American nation, the Adminis
tration must not be rebuked in the face
of the enemy by the defeat of its
party, the return of an antagonistic
and obstructive Congress, or the ele
vation to the Gubernatorial chairs of
Maguires charged with single-tax no
tions, objecting to national expan
sion, quibbling over protected indus
tiies, snarling about war revenues and
opposing, as our own. Mr. Maguire did,
legislation for the exclusion from our
shores of anarchists and their kind.
After all, there is more than half
truth in the demonstration of Mr. Web
ster, Governor Budd and the Humboldt
committee—this election Involves the
question of "pie counter or principle,"
with a flavor of single tax and the wel
coming of anarchists thrown in.
Stand by the Republican county
ticket and vote for every man on it.
They are all good men and should
receive the support of all Republicans.
Trading Is to be one of the methods
of the fusionists next Tuesday. There
is reason to believe that they are hope
less of the State ticket, and will now
bend their energies to capture the Leg
islature, and will trade right and left
to that end if Republicans are so weak
as to be seconds In such bargains, all
of which, by the way, are unlawful.
The conservatism of age is an ex
cellent check upon the exuberant rad
icalism of youth. But in the case of
Senator Hoar and his position concern
ing the Philippines, age appears to
have made conservatism radical.
THE INDIANA STREET IMPROVE
MENT SYSTEM.
The good old Hoosier State has many
wise laws and systems which other
communities may study with profit.
For instance, it has the best ballot law
of any of the many formed upon the
basis of the Australian plan; it has the
best convict-return-system known,
under which the discharged convict is
returned to the place from which he
was sent up; its school laws are com
posites of the best features of those
of the other States; and so on through
a long chapter of wise systems.
There is one law in Indiana, how
ever, to which we desire to call especial
attention, since it works to a charm
there, and could be copied with profit
In California. We have in a partial
way provided some such system al
ready, by a statute which has, we be
lieve, never been availed of. But it
Is not so complete as the Indiana "Ten
Year Payment Pavement Law."
Under that system when the proper
authority has resolved upon the con
struction or improvement of a high
way in a city or town, it causes a care
ful estimate of the cost to be made,
and beyond which in no case must the
actual cost go. As soon as this esti
mate is filed and approved, the work
may be ordered under a plan by which
the property owners assessed for the
cost may pay it in ten equal annual
installments, or may pay it earlier If
they wish.
The property owner may elect to be
gin payments in November or in April
following the date of the estimate.
Every six months after payment of the
first one-tenth and accrued interest
there falls due, alternately, the inter
est for six months on the unpaid part
of the cost, and one-tenth part of the
cost with six months' interest.
Thus in the middle of each year in
terest only is paid, and once each year
interest and principal is paid. The rate
of interest is 6 per cent. A prop
erty owner can anticipate any pay
ment he chooses, or all of them, and
thus save interest payments entirely.
The finance department of the city
can issue, if It so desires, paving bonds
for each improved street, and use
them in payment for the work in ad
vance of the collection of the assess
ment.
Under such a system Sacramento
could afford to grade and pave every
one of her unimproved streets, and re
place all gravel streets with macadam
inside of the next five years, and the
burden of cost would scarcely be felt
by the people, because of the ease of
payment and the exceeding benefits
which would accrue from such improve
ment: these benefits being improved
drainage, improved sanitary conditions,
induced home building and augmented
population, enhanced values of prop
erty, and the development of outlying
sections into handsome residence quar
ters.
LOCAL OPTION TAXATION.
It is explained that if the so-called
local' option plank of the Democratic
platform should become constitutional
law. the only effect would be to permit
counties so voting to try the single-tax
system, and that would be only experi
mental, a sort of "try it on the dog"
process. That is precisely what the
"Record-Union" has claimed, nothing
more nor less. But, be it noted, com
munities have been more injured by
political experiments than by any other
processes. When now we come to in
cluding single tax and other crank no
tions in local option experimentation.
we open the dLoor to the worst kind of
confusion.
It is not possible to have in each
county an independent system of tax
ation and preserve that unity of the
State which is essential to its welfare.
Counties are but divisions of conveni
ence: they are not little sovereignties
or independencies. The State Is the
unit of a system; its subdivisions are
political conveniences for the purposes
of fixing and choosing representatives,
and for administering the State
system economically. Even the local
or county government systems are but
parts of the one machine we call the
State, and which alone is the recog
nized'unit in the national system.
The' war resulted in new obligations
being, imposed upon the nation. The
President, as its executive head, must
shape his policy to the wise and eco
nomic discharge of these obligations.
That he has thus far run abreast with
the sentiment of the great mass of the
6
THE BEOOED-rMQy, SACKAMEXTQ, SIIXDAY, XOYEMEEE 4T, 1898.
j American people is conceded. That he
has maintained the honor and dignity,
the new* standing and credit of the
f Republic before all the nations is ad
-1 mitted. It is essential, therefore, that
he shall not now from any State re
ceive rebuke and suffer withdrawal of
confidence by adverse expression at
the polls. To place obstructions in his
way in this time of trial is unpatri
j otic. To attempt to excuse opposition
:by pleading that within State lines no
political expression can operate ad
versely to the policy of the Adminis
tration is to beg the question. The
support of the people is what the Ad
ministration is entitled to now, and it
1 can be best given by expression at the
j polls next Tuesday.
The Stockton "Mail" says Mr. Ma
guire's platform is broad enough for
him to stand firmly upon. Yes, broad
enough, and too broad. It is a thtce
sided platform, all surface and no un
derpinning. It is structurally weak in
the foundation.
Our officers down in Porto Rico have
begun to arrest anarchists, holding
that they are public enemies. The of
ficers have done well. In Porto Rico
the government is under military pro
tection and dictation as yet, and the
military arm cannot afford the anar
chists the freedom to preach their in
famous bomb and dagger doctriiv. s,
which is accorded them here.
WHAT SHALL THE ANSWER BE?
It is announced that the President
and his Cabinet have resolved that the
national policy must be one in favor of
retention of the Philippine group, since
we cannot in common justice turn the
islands back to Spanish misrule; we
cannot sell the possessions to a strang
er;: we hsve no right to barter the
trib.- people who inhabit them; and,
because having fallen heir to this great
trust by the fortune of war, we must
administer it wisely and well, for the
best interests of the people of the
group, and at the same time in the
interest of expansion of our trade and
national importance, and to secure
full recognition of our flag by the na
tions of the earth as one worthy of
respect and affording protection to
Americans and American interests
everywhere.
That declaration is in keeping with
the throb of the national heart to-day,
and it will receive from one end of the
land to the other approval, save from
the doubting and timorous, who cling
to the past and fear paternalism more
than they desire the fulfillment of the
destiny of the nation and its placement
where it belongs, in the front rank of
the greatest Powers of earth.
And, by the way, the election in Cal
ifornia next week is to be an aye or nay
response of Caiifornians to this an
nouncement of Administration policy.
The verdict being for Maguire and the
conglomerate ticket, the President
stands rebuked and California sends
word of comfort to the exasperatlngly
delaying Spaniards and the enemies of
America everywhere. If for Mr. Gage
and the Republican ticket, it sends
word to the uttermost parts that Cal
ifornia stands by the President and his
policy, and eschews the carpings, theo
ries and theorizing, objecting and dem
agogic obstruction doctrines of the
Whites and Maguires.
The opposition press is complaining
that Republicans are maliyning and
abusing Mr. Maguire. That is untrue.
The assaults upon Mr. Maguire by Re
publicans have all been directed
against his beliefs and positions as ex
posed by records and expressions.
There has been made no personal at
tack upon the candidate, no misrepre
sentation of him, no maligning of the
man. The Republican party and press
has made a clean, defensible and ag
gressive fight against Maguireism,
without any mud flinging at the can
didate as a man.
The Fresno Republican says:
The difficulty in casting, anything
but a blind vote on the proposed con
stitutional amendments is an argu
ment against the referendum, in the
form we now have it.
Yes, and for that very reason it is
wise to vote "no" on every submitted
proposition on Tuesday.
Says the Stockton "Mail":
No one believes that there is any dis
loyalty in the Democracy of this cam
paign; certainly there is none in Cali
fornia. The war is over, Spain is prone,
it cannot help itself, and the Adminis
tration can work its will with it, and
nothing California might do would help
or hinder.
No one has charged Democrats with
disloyalty. The assumption that any one
has is a violent one. The war is over
so far as fighting lines are concerned
at present. But the more difficut task
now presents and the attitude of Cal
ifornia assuredly will either help or
hinder the Administration in the task
now before it. Moral support is at
times of greater value than material
aid.
AN EDUCATOR PESSIMIST.
Professor Norton of Harvard is again
before the public as a persistent pes
simist, a bird of croakings and ill fore
casts, dismal, fearful and prophesying
ill for his country because it does not
go his way. He now says we have no
leaders; that the nation is devoid of
sense and information; that we were
sinful in wiping out the Spanish dis
grace and inhumanity in Cuba; that
we will do grievous wrong in the Orient
unlt-ss we pause in our course, and that
the whole system of our Government
needs ripping up and building over.
Fortunately, Norton has but a small
following. Radiant, unthinking opti
mism and hopeless, dismal pessimism
are equally extremes. Norton's ex
treme position, however, goes to the
verge of monomania. He is so bound
up with the ideals of his fancy that ho
is impatient if one suggests a possi
bility of their being overdrawn. Pro
fessor Norton has prominence as an
educator, but none as a statesman. He
is essentially a scholar and an essayist.
He moves too little among men to have
ordinary worldly wisdom, or else we
read hie productions with poor under
standing. He Is a doubter to the ex
tent that he has hope in nothing na
tional. '
His idr-als are so lofty and his at
tachment to fading traditions of the
nation so close that he cannot look
away from the past or contemplate a
destiny for his country broader than
its bounds and loftier than the con
ceptions of the fathers. Their prescience
did not embrace such extension as we
have made upon this continent, and
never contemplated the lap of Pacinc
waves upon the shores of an American
State. Professor Charles Eliot Nor
ton is a misfortune and a scholarly
mistake, a learned pessimist and a
hopeless political hypochondriac.
It is of less importance that Henry
T. Gage represents the Republican
party, than that he represents "Greater
America"; represents the new policy of
the nation; represents the sentiment
that stands by the President.
In judging candidates personally
while nodding them to a good standard
of citizenship Let us not be so rigid as
to expect them all to come up to our
idealls. The ideal man is unborn, the
perfect candidate has never been pro
posed for office. While men are human
beings, they will have some weaknesses.
The people well know that if Henry
T. Gage is elected Governor he will
not make the State Capitol an office
and agency of the San Francisco "Ex
aminer," or any other paper, nor a
means for carrying out the whims, va
garies and unscrupulous schemes of
that libeling and misrepresenting and
would-be domineering sheet.
MR. MAGUIRE'S EVASIVE AN
SWER.
Mr. Maguire has been compelled by
a storm of inquiry to again open his
lips upon the single tax question. He
replies evasively, namely, that if elect
ed he would have no power to introduce
the single tax into the revenue policy
of the State. That is disingenuous. He
would not have the "power," but he
would have the right to exert all the
powerful influence of his office to ac
complish the adoption of the theory.
The platform on which he stands
pledges every man elected upon it to
the Legislature to propose a single tax
amendment to the Constitution upon
which the people would be compelled to
vote. That is, the platform calls for
the submission of a constitutional
amendment under which any city or
county can adopt any system of col
lecting revenue it may fix upon.
Mr. Maguire has not, and he will not
deny that he believes in and has sworn
to labor to the last hour of his life for
the doctrine that the single tax is the
panacea for all the political ills known
or fancied among men. For that he
deliberately left the Democratic party
and forswore the political faith of
his early manhood. Yet, with the pos
sibilities within the power of the Gov
ernor of this State, Mr. Maguire has
the assurance to ask the people to
vote for him, under his vague state
ment that however much he wishes to
see the single tax doctrine adopted into
the State system, he cannot force it
upon the people.
But people vote for or against candi
dates for executive office for reasons,
among others, which relate to their po
litical and economic beliefs. It makes
very little difference whether they have
the "power" to force them upon the
people. If the candidate believes a
certain political doctrine, the people are
intelligent enough to know—despite Mr.
Maguire's assumption to the contrary—
that by their affirmative votes they in
dorse the belief of the candidate.
So, too, Mr. Maguire has distinctly
said in Congress that he does not be
lieve it practicable or right to exclude
anarchists, nihilists and the like from
immigration into the country. It is
conceded that as Governor he could
not effect anything in preventing the
exclusion of such undesirable classes,
nevertheless with the announcement of
his belief concerning anarchists fresh
upon his lips voters realize that his
election would amount to an indorse
ment of his views that such classes are
"Republicans of Spain" and "Demo
crats of Russia," and, therefore, de
sirable to have among us.
The Philadelphia "Inquirer," in dis
cussing the political situation in Cali;
fornia and Washington, and says:
The importance of this campaign lies
in the effect that its results will have
upon national politics a few years
hence. Should the Democratic candi
date win this fight upon the issues in
dicated, the Pacific Coast will come to
the Democratic National Convention
with a single-tax plank. Naturally,
California should go Republican this
year.
This is the way it looks to a distant
spectator, one that bears the reputa
tion of being fair and far-seeing. It
will be seen that the view from Phila
delphia is precisely that taken by the
Republican party in California, namely,
that the single tax is an issue, made
such by the candidacy of Mr. Maguire
and the cowardly acquiescence of the
Democratic party. The "Inquirer" goes
beyond this, however, and declares
that from Mr. Maguire's course in
Congress and out of it, he is really in
the drift that rushes on to the com
mune; that he is ahead of the De
mocracy in this, the logical path of
which leads in the'same direction. This
is an arraignment to which not even
his Republican opponents in California
have subjected Mr. Maguire. We have
thought and said that he is in the
flood tide that leads to the most pro
nounced socialistic agitation; that he
believes in the State as the one and
only proprietor, and that his drift into
the paternalism of socialism is posi
tive. But it has remained for an East
ern critic to declare that the course
he has been steering leads directly—
perhaps unconsciously—into commun
ism.
The Riverside "Enterprise" says edi
torially: "Justice Van Fleet is the
Judge who rendered the Loren Fox de
cision, declaring that the life of a poor
man's son is not nearly so valuable as
that of the rich man's darling." The
"Enterprise" knows, if it has intelli
gence enough to read and understand
I plain English, that Justice Van Fleet
did nothing of the kind; that the charge
it repeats Is an ••Examiner" lie. Yet
| the "Enterprise" claims to be decent,
cleanly and honest. To such ends does
unreasoning partisanship lead. Has it
m-ver occurred to the "Enterprise,"
and all others who repeat its infamous
falsehood, that Jackson Temple, a Dem
ocrat, a man above suspicion, a jurist
\ with but few equals, a Judge every
where respected, honored and admired
j for his courage, legal attainments and
upright life, on a motion to reverse the
decision and grant a rehearing of the
case, decided adversely to the motion,
and upheld the opinion of the court
rendered by Justice Van Fleet?
The Oakland "Democrat," which is
one of the most ardent of Maguire
sheets, has this to say of Wiiliam Mc-
Kinley, the President of the United
States. We print without much com
ment, since it is its own best commen
tary. Such opposition literature serves
only to stiffen the resolution of decent
people to resent scurrility of that or
der, which not even the heat of a cam
paign can excuse. The "Democrat"
says:
The most contemptible figure in
America to-day is William McKinley,
President of these United States, scur
rying about the country prostituting
national events to occasions for bolster
ing up a discredited and rapidly disin
tegrating party.
MRS. HENRY T. GAGE.
Expects to Reside in Sacramento
After January First.
The following from the San Francisco
"Call" will be read with interest by
Sacramentans:
The home of Henry T. Gage is about
an hour's drive from Los Angeles. The
road is a bit dusty, but one does not
mind that slight inconvenience, after
arriving at the home, which amply re
pays one for the journey. The house
and grounds are on a sloping piece of
land, and in the immediate vicinity are
acres of green lawns and walks shaded
with palms, magnolia, cypress, orange
and lemon trees, while here and there
are rustic benches, rases, lilies and
flowers galore.
Every blade of grass upon the place,
every fruit tree and wide-spreading
cypress tree attest to the fact of Mr.
Gage's love and interest in his home,
for they were planted by his own hand.
Mrs. Henry T. Gage believes firmly
that her husband will be the next Gov
ernor, for she does not think that the
people of California would fail to avail
themselves of the opportunity of plac
ing such a man at the head of their
government. And as she says it her"
blue eyes glow with pride at the con
viction of her husband's superiority
over all other men.
She is an earnest woman of vivid con
victions and a never-failing fund of
personal enthusiasm. She is essential
ly domestic, all her interests being cen
tered in her home, her husband and
their five children. She takes the keen
est interest in the campaign and reads
everything the papers say, whether
good or bad. The good she already
knows, and the bad she doesn't believe.
"When Mr. Gage is elected I shall
certainly reside at Sacramento," she
said, and rising to the five feet seven
inches of her magnificently propor
tioned womanhood she 3tepped to the
window, and glancing over the land
scape, added, "and we will try to have
our home there a reproduction of this
happy and beautiful one, where all our
children were born. That row of pop
lar trees, the orchards of oranges, lem
ons, walnuts and olive trees were all
laid out and planted by Mr. Gage him
self."
At the thought that there might be
four years spent away from the pretty
Southland home Mrs. Gage grew a bit
meditative, and then said quietly:
"Yes, it will be a wrench to leave
this beautiful home, but, as Governor,
my husband's duties will require his
residence in Sacramento during his
term of office, and of course I will be
there with him and our children.
"During our residence in Sacramento
we will both be pleased to enter into
the social pleasures and enjoyments of
the citizens. As for myself, I am not
sure how I would entertain, for sur
roundings would, of course, affect that;
but if Mr. Gage is elected, and I believe
he will be, we will, I think, be fully
able to meet any demands that may
be made upon us."

An elderly |ady living at Fordham Heights, a part of New York City, and who
was known to be a warm advocate of Ripans Tabules for any case of liver trouble or
indigesiion, said to a reporter who visited her for the purpose of learning the partic
ulars of her case: " I had always employed a physician and did so on the last occasion
I had for one, but at that time obtained no beneficial results. I had never had any
faith in patent medicines, but having seen Ripans Tabules recommended very highly
in the New York Herald, I concluded to give them a trial, and I found they were just
what my case demanded. I have never employed a physician since, and that means a
saving of $2 a call. A dollar's worth of Ripans Tabules lasts me a month, and I
would not be without them bow if it were my last dollar.' 1 At the time of this inter
view there were present two daughters who specially objected to their mother giving a
testimonial which should parade her name in the newspapers, but to this the elder
lady argued: "There may be other cases just like mine, and I am sure I take great
pleasure in recommending the Tabules to any one affected as I was. If the telling
about my case in the papers enables some other person similarly affected to be as greatly
benefited as I have been, I see no objection." And the daughters, familiar with her
case and knowing how earnestly she felt about the benefit she had received from
Ripans Tabules, decided that than mother was quite right.

CONSTANTLY
Baby Badly Afflicted with Eczema.
Hands, Face, and Clothes
Covered with Blood.
Face Covered with Large Sores.
Medical Treatment Useless.
Cured by Cuticura.
SKIN NOW SMOOTH AND ROSY.
My niece's little baby boy, two years old,
■was so badly afflicted with Eczema that he
needed constant watching. It was all over
his face, and he scratched the sores con
stantly. Mornings, his clothes would be
stained with blood, and his lace and bands
would be covered. His family never could
take him out, as his face was always full of
large sores. They had medical treatment, and
tried everything they heard of. She com

was entirely cured, and now his face is as
smooth and rosy as though no sore had ever
been there to mar it. Mrs. L. J. IP >OT,
