estimate that it will require at least
$40,000 to build masonry walls on both
sides of the1 canal between the first and
. i second locks.'" Since B over' three 'mil-
lions 'of dollars have' already been ex
pended on the work, -it would seem
i that to ask for 'more 'money : to be
-."squandered" on the big ditch would
be unkind, hence" to avoid further
' looting the treasury, some of those who
.are opposed to reckless expenditures
- - of public funds, andre at the "same
. time very anxious that-the locks , be
; operated before their great-grandsons
. shall die of old age, suggest ' that the
.voters: of The Dalles contribute fifty
cents each, employ the supervisor of
- the Cascade Locks road district to
superintend the job, and , have , him
rip-rap' those" walls. ''.Under his. super
'vision the work could .' be. done in a
month", and the SA ty cent contribution
from each of the thousand voters in
the city wouldi" it is .believed, raise
ample funds with which to prosecute
the work.1 Possibly before this could
be done,' if Would be necessary .to get
: control of the locks put of the hands ,6f
the war department and In order' to
accomplish this, it is suggested that
'. the engineers in the' department" be
loaned to the Cuban patriots,' who" pan
make' good use-of them'for a month,
while the road supervisor is complet
ing the job they have "been " wasting
.'- their energies on for 1 the past fifteen

-i. TRADE i ; WORTH' INVITING-'
. - Notwithstanding the. business , men
. of The Dalles Have been wide aw ake in
the past in offering.. inducements . for
outside trade', in the way of subscribing
liberally "to funds fbr .building- roads
into the interior,' and last fall donated
$500 to the Rattlesnake . road,: leading
into Sherman county, still they can in-
. vest more money in. this line to advan
tage. "Especially can this be done in
' constructing and , maintaining a goad.
- road leading . intone central part of
Sherman. ' The money that has . been
subscribed to the Rattlesnake road, is
sufficient . to make a fairly .-. good
- thoroughfare Of ,.ltJQt,rnot.,Bneb.a
- road as will insure all the wheat raised
, south of -Wasco.' comin g to The DaUes.j
Grass' Valley this year will produce
- an immense wheat crop and a: large
, wool clip, all pf which .woundl. find '.its
way to The Dalles if t.he road to this
place were as good as that leading to
Rufus, which is the nearest .shipping
point to Grass Valley, beingoiily thirty
miles distant, while to" The Dalles it is
thirty-seven miles. But to. .counter
balance this difference in distance, the
- higher prices to be obtained" herg are"
sufficient-to-v induce j. the - farmers to
travel seven miles father, if the roads
were equal." On account of competing
. transportation lines The Dalles will be
. able thfe year"- to offer from three to
four cents more a bushel for wheat and
- from one to two cents a pound more for
j- wool than Rufus. Besides this, Dalles
' merchants can and do offer greater in
fuaements in the wayof -lowriees,
forthe farmers', trade than any.,: other.
merchants; lir -Eastern; Oregon',? S AlJ.
-these items are inducements; for the

The business men of The Dalles cannot
afford to - allow a donation of a few
hundred dollars , to be expendedon
roads to stand between them and the
prospect of securing the trade'-of one
- of the richest agricultural districts of
the state. They should not wait to be
asked to contibute to such -a- fund,, but
take it upon themselves to "see that the

AGAINST TEE SPOILS, SYSTEM.
In all parts of the country the revolt
of the people against professional offi
cialism and the spoils system, that has
- prevailed so many years, is. general.
Regardless' of ,'. party, the people" are
awakening" to' the fact that public
servants have, become their masters;
that the result of: -their energies is
being consumed to maintain a .lot of
droans with whom self aggrandizement'
is at all .times paramount;1 that, the
people are being taxed to build up and
pporc a class wno nave ous vuo
object, to draw salaries regardless, of
the' service' they . render,- And ,the
means they adopt to accomplish this
end are most questionable. - This sys
tem has become so palpable that even
the strictest partisan paoers' are enter
ing a protestagalnst;,its .continuance
in the parties with, which they affiliate.
The ChicagoTimes-Herald, an. emir
nent republican ' paper, in speaking of
the methods of republican politicians
in Chicago. -Illinois, says "professional
- spoilsmen run the conventions, man
age the primaries and frame tickets in
flagrant defiance'' of - decent public
opinion. .They parcel theofSoea among
themselves. - xanner ciaims me gov
ernorship-as if ft' were his personal
property. - Herzt grabs at 'the state
treasury, Lo rimer, Madden and Jamie
son divide the spoils of Cook county
among- them. - The whole gang com
bine to turn out a member of congress
in whose character and record they do
not even attempt to pick a flaw, and to
give his place to aman who is arraigned
in the public prints "for 'conducting a'
business demanding the attention of
the Society for. the Suppression fit

' The Oregon delegation in .congress
is beginning to wake up to a realiza-
tion of their duties in reference to the
government improvements at-the Cas
cades, and the activity they are begin
ning to display gives grounds for a
hope that some relief, in the way of an
additional appropriation' for. the' com
pletion and protection of the works at
that place, may be bad at the present
session. Mr. S. L. 'Brooks is in re
ceipt of a letter from Congressman
Ellis stating that the delegation will
use every endeavor to secure an ap
propriation, and that speedy action
will be recommended, and the follow
ing item appeared in Saturday's dis
patches from Washington: . , w
' "Mitchell has been consulting with
the war. department concerning an
emergency appropriation for the Cas
cade locks, to make the. locks secure
so they can be early opened for navi
gation. He will introduce a joint reso
lution for such amount as ther,"war- de
partment recommends, so that it may
be Immediately adopted." X;
JVith-j Senator Mitchells and Rep
resentative Ellis exerting proper en
ergy to secure an immediate appropria-
ation, backed up by the petitions from
tbe-different commercial organisations
.of the cities along the Columbia,, there
should be little delay in securing the
monev with, which to prosecute the
work. , Then if some of the customary
J'red-tape" of the war department can
be disposed of, and a contract awarded
on business principles, with strict pro
visions for the work being forced along
with all possible expediency, tbere is
at least a spark of hope that the locks
mav be opened' for traffic by .ha-vest
time. ,.. .. ... - - :"
UNWORTHY OF CONFIDENCE
The Oregonian, ln the nght it is
making against the Frank-Lotan fac
tion of the republican party in Mult
nomah county, is making some revela
tions ; of 'bartv "secrets" that are
damaging to say the least, and show
some of the questionable methods that
were adopted at the last session of the
legislature to prevent legislation. In
telling how the Simon charter bill and
'some other "measures intended to cut
down public expense were swamped,
the Oregonian gives this version ' of
the dishonest use of money: ' ' ' . ".'". '.
" J "A corruption fund of $12,500, headed
by Mayor. Frank," was . raised.. Every
city official was required ;to pay one
tenth "of t his' annual saiaiy .. inip. the
'potr.i This large sum was entrusted to
the discretionary "care of Mr. . 'Jack'
MathVwsV with" instructions to. go to
Salem and' place it where it would do
the most good. ", With that high sense
of devotion to the public interest which
has ever marked Mr. Matthew's course,
he discharged , his . trust faithfully.
AfosVshameful 'methods were . used to
defeat the general desire jfor the .pas
sage of these various measures of
economy. . By .open "and systematic
trading, skillful manipulation and.com-
plicatiou with . other measures, and,
ab6ve'"all,"by successful attempts upon
Various persons who were susceptible
'to the influerice"6f money, all the bills
except one were defeated." j i
And so it is really true that "suc
cessful attempts'- ; were " made - upon
persons susceptible- to ; the influence
of money1'? to :prevent-the passage'!of
measures calculated to lessen the bur
dens of taxation; - In plainer language,
Mr;'-Matthews,1 according to this state-:
men t, really went lnto; the legislative ;
halls and bought votes.1-' iL For the past
year the. Oregonian, and ( with nearly?
otner repuoiican paper in ine state,
naV'been. endeavoring " to'" lay1" 'ihe
blamei:i6f--failure "to i1)ass'' economical
laws and repeal extravagant ones u'pbn
the senatorial contest-the dead lock
that' continued until the last day of the
session'.-''But now the Oregonian con
fesses that it was the questionable' use'
of money that prevented some, at least,
of those economical measures from be
coming laws. " , -. .., - . ... . .
Admitting that this last confession
of the Oregonian. is true, and it seems
to be worthy of credence, , there were
some men in the last legislature whose
opinions could be warped by. the. use of
money men who held financial griin
in greater' esteem- man' tne pieages
they, .made -' prior to election ; re . 1 1 J is
humiliating to the people of the ; state
to be forced to acknowledge that - such
men have been! elevated to positions of
honor, and' trust, -and . it- reflects' dis-;
eredit: upon::theJvparty .that "stood
sponsor . foro Jihose- legislators. ' c -The
' party that placed those m'en..in pomi-
nation and guaranteed their, honesty
was responsible for the disgrace thrust
upon the state by 'their acts in the last
legislature; but the - voters . or Oregon
willbe'to blame if they ' again'plac'e.'ih
.power ' th6se'"; who'' have' ' proven "' sb'
-pliable to the influence ' of pelf,:: And.
since political parties are no more than
an assemblage of meh and' should be
-held to strict accountability for 'the
conduct of 'those whom' they -entrust
.withi office, .the voters of the state can
not support ; the legislative"" nominees
of the' party to which' those purchase
able lawmakers" belong' '.without en
dorsing theirdisbonest acts.
THE RECfoR D ' FOR ONE YEAR.
L In spite of ,the' "ruinour effects" of
the'-present .tariff law, evidence will
present itself to prove that the; manu
facturing,, industries, are &ot,. totally
annihilated,, but in ..some lines ' are
actually thriving New factories are
going up in some places, improvements
and enlarged, plants are , being put in
In.. others, and there was actually a
healthy increase in the number of fac
tories during the past year in some of
the very industries which, a few years,
ago,, we , were told would -be totally
ruined by a reduction of the tariff , on,
the articles they produced. The Amerr
lean Wool and Cotton: Reporter, finds
that in J895 sqme 357 new woolen, and
cotton mill enterprises were started, as
against 263 in 1894 and 279 In 18V3, and
the Boston Herald is informed, that
approximately 100,000,000 pounds more
wool was used by the mills of Massa
chusetts , in 1895 than the normal
amount consumed in a year.
1 Three :hundred and fifty-seven new
woolen and cotton mills established in
one year, and an increase of 100,000,000
pounds of wool consumed in a single
state is not a bad showing. - It does
not lndicate;that the. manufacturing
industry in these lines' ha suffered se
verely. And while; thig, increase in
manufacturing plants has been going
on. how havevtbe ' consumers', of the
manufactured articles . been , aff ectert 2
.Was there- ever a time in the: history
of America that woolen fand cotton
fabrics wre furnished to ijj.e consumer
at as low-"prices as they, are" today?
Seventy million's of people. are being
clothed cheaper than ever i before in
thelr.lives.-r If one year of reduced
tariff has been thus beneficial would
it not be folly to inflict Increased , bur
dens upon the people? -. Cbpgrecf mould
serve the country better Jbj cutting
down expenses - than by "increasing
taxation. '
LIGHT BREAKING IN THE EAST
The first gleams of returning dem
ocratic daylight are beginning to
break in the east, says the. Examiner.
As usual Jt is the local elections that
indicate the approaching change'. - In
Pennsylvania, in :-twenty-one cities
outside of Philadelphia, that have
held elections within the past two
weeks the republicans have carried
eleven and the democrats ten. For a
state that gave a republican plurality
or 174,264 less than four months ago
that is not bad. Pittsburg, which had
a republican majority of 35,000, has
just come within 2,000 votes of ing
over to the democrats. In New York,
while the democratic revival has not
y3t reached startling proportions,
many of the democratic towns lost in
fie disasters of the past three years
have been recovered and some, re
publican strongholds have been cap
tured. The election of Josiah Quincy
as mayor of Boston proves that the
lapse of the metropolis of New England
from democracy' was only temporary.
The republican bosses in New York,
New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecti
cut and other states are doing every
thing in their power to make the
people forget their resentment at demo
cratic" misgovern ment, and in many
cases they are succeeding to perfection.
The republican " congress is - giving
them efficient aid. ..- On a rough calcu
lation it may be, estimated that every
week - of--republican -.imbecility at
Washington is worth about a hundred
thousand votes for the democratic
presidential ticket.
. .The first conspicuous political, test
of the year will come on the 1st of
ApriL when Rhode Island" will hold a
state election. The result of the spring
election . in Rhode Island is always
a trustworthy indication of the drift of
feeling in the country at the . time.
If the democrats succeed in cut
ting down the republican : majority
there . . to . normal proportions ..it
will be reasonably certain that- the
stress of hard times is over for the
democracy, and that - the presidential
election will be held at the polls and
not in-the convention hall at St. Louis.
A DESERVING ENTERPRISE
The move inaugurated by the Colum
bia Portage and Transportation . com
pany . to remove the obstructions to
navigation of . the . Upper . Columbia
river, by building a portage road be
tween The . Dalles and Celilo, is one
that is deserving of encouragement
and substantial aid. Such an enter
prise, if put in operation,.-would, solve
the problem of navigating the Colum
bia river and would give the- farmers
of the upper country all ; the ; ad
vantages of an -open -river in a com
paratively short space of time. :;
True, a portage road can be only
temporary, 1 as - more permanent Im
provements; Either a boat railway or
canal and locks, will sometime be con
structed, but the date when- such- im
provements will be commenced is un
certain. -Even if the bill Senator
Mitchell -has introduced, ' making an
appropriation -' for : a - boat-railway,
should become a law at this session
of I; congress, -'it--will be : several
years before it can be- completed. L A
portage road,' however," can be con
structed within six months-, "and placed
in operation in time for -the handling
of this year's ivheat crop.- If a portage
road is to be constructed it is certainly
preferable that it-be under the. man
agement of a local company,-'composed
of parties who -are -directly-'ihterested
in maintaining it, than it should be- in
the hands of a foreign company, hence
the stock of the company that has just
been incorporated ought to be 'readily
subscribed by - the business men and
farmers of this, Sherman and Gilliam
counties. The saving on freight rates
for handling this year's crop of wheat
in Sherman and Gilliam counties would
go far toward constructing ' the road,,
and it is only a business proposition
for the farmers in those counties to in
terest themselves in the new - corpora
tion.s Each and every one of them
should take at least as much - stock' in
the company as the difference in the
co 3 1 of transportation of his -crop -will
amount to,. . ...
i WHERE, IX): THEY STAND ?. -
Although the presidential campaign
this fall must, to a great extent, hinge
upon! the. financial question, this being
a , year when, aspirants for the presi
dency miisf'standup and be counted'?
on the choice between a gold 'standard
and the free coinage of silver, republi
can candidates for the "presidency are
loath " to" express' . their "vie ws, or tell
where they. 'stand. The Cincinnati
Commercial Gazette recently asked all
the republican candidates by telegraph
the following question; V " . ., ,-. ....
"We respectfully request from you,
in common with other republican can
didates for the presidency, a clear
definition by telegraph of your, posi
tion oh the money question. , , .
" Do you favor a decided expression
by the republican party of the national
convention?" ..; . ;
Quay replies that the "unity of the
party" must be preserved, and favors a
plank '.'something like".-, the straddle
of 1892. - Elkins also favors that equivo
cation.. McKinley, Davis, Manderson,
Allison, , Reed, Cullom - and Morton
make no response whatever... The Com
mercial Gazette tells these ; gentlemen
that their silence will not satisfy voters
on .either side, that voters ''will not be
content with evasions." , and . that no
man is a leader who. cannot' lead on
this question." ' J .ads. with entire
truth and pertinence: . , , .. .. ; ,.
Mr. Whitney, declaring himself not
to be a candidate for , the democratic
nomination, says: - 'The , Iree silver
policy is in my opinion fundamentally
wrong and ylcfpiw.' , . This plain,
straightforward declaration may make
bim a candidate in spite of himself.
What Is wanted on the republican side
from those who,, are candidates is a
declaration., equally plain, . equally
frank." ..ii....f-if.,; v..
EFFECTIVE PROTECTION.
t M ore speeches have been , delivered
and , more , editorials written , in the
past thirty years on the subject of pro
tection to home industries and Ameri
can labor than upon- any', other., one
subiect. and it is certain that all this
display of oratorical ; and - editorial
ability has effected little,: at least so
far as final determination of what
manner of protection would be best
for the. masses, is considered, : After
all that has been said and written on
this subject, and the trial that the
system . of -: -protection ?! naa irom
tariffs has been subjected to, it would
seem that the Amsrioan people should
by this time be able to uniewtaad fust
what sort of protection their varied in
dustries require, but such la not the
case. The divergence of opinion. Is
just as wide today as It was when the
question of protection was first brought I
up in congress. The scramble for ad
vantage one way or the other, either
by the manufacturer of producer, is
just as great as it was the day the first
tariff bill was Introduced. Hence it is
that many ; belief e it an utter impos
sibility to pass a tariff law that will af
ford equitable protection to all,- or
even a majority of the people. What
is beneficial to one industry is detri
mental to another, so about the only
protective law that would deal justly
with all, would be one fixing duties so
high as to prohibit foreign commerce
entirely, and cause the people to live
and . trade exclusively among . themselves.
But there is a simpler system of pro
tection, which if adopted by the Ameri
can people, would require no law to
enforce, that would result in a most
effective system of protection being
thrown around every industry, and in
a remarkably short space of time would
cause America's commerce to be con
fined almost exclusively to home mar
kets. Had the people of America to
day that patriotism possessed by the
."Boston Tea Party" when they de
clared they would have nothing to do
with foreign products and hove a cargo
of tea into the sea, there would be no
need of protection laws. Of course it
would not be practicable to adopt this
principle literally, for there are some
articles which we require that we can
not produce, but if the principle were
more prevalent among the American
people, that home products are good
enough for home consumption, Ameri
can manufacturing would be materially
stimulated... -.: . . ; .....
There is too much of tendency to
want something imported. .The idea
seems to prevail among too many peo
ple that dresses made in Paris, cloth
ing made in Manchester, and in fact
anything made abroad, is superior in
quality and finish to the same class of
articles produce at home. The result
is that we send millions of dollars to
foreign countries for articles that are
really inferior to the same class pro
duced at home, and by so doing we
are keeping our manufacturing Enter
prises down and depriving' our labor
ers of employment. A true sense of
patriotism would dictate that we con
fine as nearly as possible our consump
tions to home products; that ; we give
preference to the home products when
brought - in - competition - with for
eign. If this spirit of patriotism
prevailed among the American people,
the cry of "protection to American in
dustries" would soon cease,' for we
would have a svstem of protection that
would be perfectly effectual, and would
possess the virtue of not being burden
some.'1 r:' - y-- : ' :::.-., '!-
ASSISTANCE ASSURED.
The efforts put forth by The Dalles
Commercial Club to secure additional
appropriations for the completion and
protection of the government works at
the Cascades, are beginning to have
good effect. Senator Mitchell has
already introduced a resolution in com
pliance with the requests of the club,
mention -of which , was made in these
columns, several days since, and Repre
sentatives Ellis and Hermann have
written to the officers of the club stat
ing that each will co-operate with the
other members of the Oregon delega
tion at Washington to secure the de-1
sired, .legislation;" .-. They t assure the
officers .of . the club that . the .matter
shall .receive immediate -. attention.
With the- , delegation thus, aroused to !
the needs of .the, occasion it is very
probable. that the appropriation askei
for'by the government , engineers will
be granted by the present, session If
this is done there is nothing to hinder
the canal and locks being made "ready
for traffic this year. ; ; t- i

8AS FBANCISCO'S STRANGLES, v
Another Women of the Town Murdered
" . -5 ' ; Monday Night. - : i;-;.
San Francisco, March 10. An
other women of the town was strangled
early this morning under -circumstances
almost identical ' with two
other murders that have taken place
recently in the same locality.
Early this morning a woman named
Bertha Paradis, of 27 St. Mary's street,
was found dead In her bed. When
found she was half reclining on' the
bed, her feet on the floor. She ' had
been strangled, a handkerchief having
been thrust down her throat. The
room was in perfect order. Nothing
had been disturbed apparently. The
girl lay fully dressed on her bed.' No
marks of violence were on the neck.
She had apparently been seized, and a
napkin, as well as a handkerchief, had
been crowded down her throat. , The
money on her was not touched, nor had
there been any apparent effort to go
through the bureau drawers or other
places where money might be kept.
To the hasty investigation of the police
it seemed like a crime not actuated by
the motive of robbery.
The police believe they have gained
a slight clew to the criminal. J. P.
Myler, who is a waiter in the saloon on
the corner, was summoned about 2
o'clock to take' drinks to Bertha Para
dis' room. When he delivered the
drinks he found two men in the
woman's .room. .About 20 minutes

ANTI-AMEttlCAN SENTIMENT.
Local Newspaper Fanning the Flame at
Barcelona. ,
. New York, March 10. A dispatch
to the Herald from Barcelona says:
The . anti-American sentiment here
is increasing instead of abating. Lo
cal newspapers are fanning the flame.
They state that the United States can
only put 40,000 men into the field, and
that the American navy is but a trifle
superior to the Spanish. f ' -
-- Careful investigation' shows conclu
sively that Spanish politics have had
a big hand in the Barelona disturbance.
Nearly - all the inhabitants here are
Catalans, and the Catalans, almost to a
man are republicans.-- They are hear tly
opposed to the present government
and are 'making demonstrate ns here
against the United States with the di
rect purpose of putting the ' govern
ment in a hole -and possibly ' causing
its overthrow.-. - There is absolutely no
enthusiasm here over the Cuban" war.
Whenever - thef- troops start for -Cuba
they are not even given a oheer.- :

The ballot resulted: Blackburn 54,
Carlisle 10, Buckner 1. The chair de
cided that as only 65 votes had been
cast there vas no quorum; The as
sembly adjourned at once. The repub
licans of the senate made a mistake
when they refused to vote on the ques
tion of declaring Walton and Jame?
ineligible to seats. Had the republi
cans all voted 'no" it is claimed by
many that the senators would not have
been lesrallv unseated, as it requires a
two-third vote to expel members. The
opinion prevails that there will be no
election because the republicans will
refuse to vote from 'dav to day and
thereby break a quorum. . ... .
EXPERIMENTS IN GERMANY.
What Later Developments of the X Rays
Have Shown.
Washington, March , 11. United
States Consul-General Dekay, of Ber
lin, has submitted to the state depart
ment an interestiner report on later
developments of the X rays, accom
panied by a pamphlet in which Profes
sor Roentgen, the discoverer, explains
his researches. The consul-general's
report gives many facts that have been
discovered by the European experi
menters in reerard to the rays which
are unknown in the country.
One of the most important applica
tions of the rays has been made surgi
cally. By placing' a subject to be ex
amined before a screen faced -with a
mixture of barium, platinum and cyan-
ium, and allowing the rays from a tube
enclosed in a dark cloth to traverse
the body, the impression can be seen
by the eye On the screen, which is ren
dered fluorescent where the - rays fall
uninterruptedly upon it, and the sur
geon is consequently enabled to view
the subject freely before the screen
and examine the interior of the body
for foreign substances or hurtful
growths and distorted bones.

Madrid, March YZ. At Corunna
200 students belonging to the univer
sity joined in a parade yesterday.
cheered for - Spain and burned the
Amreican flag. The police succeeded
in preventing the rioters from
approaching the United States con
sulate. ' ' "
At Alicante, the mayor and police,
while dispersing-a similar 'demonstra
tion, were pelted with stones. " Some
policemen sustained injuries.
There is no likelihood that the pres
ent congress will make much progress
toward the settlement of the financial
and tariff questions, and the celerity
with which appropriation bills are be
ing pushed through indicates an early
adjournment. ' Those who have presl
dential bees buzzing in "their bonnets
are especially anxious that they should
not be placed on record. And yet tbe
republican press refers to the last as a
do-nothing, incompetent congress.
The republican politicians are howl
ing themselves hoarse in. their effort
to make the tariff question the principal
one. in the . presidential " campaign.
They are afraid' to handle that of
finance, which the people are consider
ing the most seriously.- - The latter are
well aware of the fact . that under the
present tariff they . are getting the
necessities of life much cheaper than
they' ever" did. They now pay "only
$10 for a suit of clothes that formerly
cost nearly $20. ' 3 -:
The result of . yesterday's school
election should be satisfactory to those
who have the right conception of the
free institutions vouchsafed by true
American principles. Our public
schools, and in fact all our political
machinery are too sacred to be in
trusted to either a secret society or
any church denomination. " Churches
and secret societies are right enough
in their proper places, but their sphere
is not to dictate who shall or shall
not hold office or teach our children. -
The St.' Louis Globe-Democrat es
timates that the expenses of the two
political conventions, for each of the
two political parties, to be held in
Missouri this year will cost $5,000,000,
or $1,250,000 s each, and that the ex
pense.of the Campaign in Jibe state will
be another $5,000,000, making tl-.e
election expenses for the year $10,000,
000. This it thinks is not extrava
gance, Dor is iu money wasted. But it
is more than eight dollars apiece for
every inhabitant of the state, or about
$40 for each lesral voter. ' - -,: "

The Wave, published at San' Fran
