California will vl oiously insist upon
adciinate protcetlon lor her pioducts In
the new lailff bill. INpeelally will t.liu
ui 'e this In behalf of her wine Industry.
The DIuKley bill piovlded a duty of ( W
cents per gallon upon Ktlll wines. TliN
the bt'iitite tliianee committee cut down
to I0 ! cents , the reduction , It is under
stood , liebiK made In ic.sponse to I iencli
piotcst aKalnst the house bill tale.
Tlie Kan riancl cn Call sa > s that tlio
wine Industry of California Is not at
present In a condition to withstand the
heavy blow alined at It by the proposed
reduction In the amount of protection to
bo granted U by the KoverJiment. Thn
vlnevaids aio laiiKUHhlns oven with the
present ; oed prleos fo * wino nnd it hah
been found tint the prcsenT duty of 'JO
cents a pillon Is not sulllclvnt for the
needs of the Imlnstiy. Compc'tent e\
In the vvluo tude estimate that
for the advancement of the vineyards of
California there U needed nt least a
duty of m cents per gallon on wine.
California's claim to proper cousldem-
tlon In this matter Is perfectly valid.
The valuable wine Indttstiy of that
state Is especially entitled to such en-
couiaKement as will stimulate Its fur
ther development. Of course the mat
ter of levonno Is to be considered In
Ilxliitf a duty on foreign wines , but some
saerlllee could piopetly be made In this
to-ipeel in order to avoid doing any In
jury to the domestic wine Inleiest. AVe
do not believe , however , that a duly of
< > 0 cents pi gallon on Imported wines
would result In loss of revenue , at least
to nny mateilal extent , for the people
who tan affoid to diluk foreign wines
Will continue to buy them , peihnps not
In so laigu quantity as now , but .still to
an extent that would give the treasury
as much levenue from this .souice as
It gels under the present duty.
So far as ( lie Kieiirh piotest Is con
cerned , It sbould have no weight , at alt
events not so long as Prance adheres to
its policy of disciImlnatlon against
American pioducts. Tlmt country Is
even more hostile to the fulled Slates
coinmetclally than Is Uermany and we
owe It no consideiatlon In shaping a
tariff for tlie protection nnd development
of AmeiliMii Industili's.

At the outset of the Turko-flroclan war
there wcro great expectations of Important
results to be accomplished by the Greek
fleet. It was known that , whllo the Turkish
navy contained moro voMelu , It was at the
same tlmo no match for the Greek , and that
the Turkish government was afraid to move
Us fleet out of the Dardanelles for fear It
would bo mink by the moro powerful Iron
clads of tliu enemy. It was anticipated that
the Greek navy would bo of great absistanco
to the land forces by co-operating with them
and bombarding important Turkish ports ,
cutting the-lr communication by sea and de-
trolng their supplies
The war however , Is now at an end and

Idly lying at anchor In the Dardanelles tinder

for Its raralsls has been explained In diplo

Is scribed to English Interference When It
became Known tint the Greeks had planned
naval demonstrations of an Important nature
they wcro notified by Iho Hrltlsh minister
that under no circumstances would their
fleet be allowed to attack either Salonlca or
Smjrna , aa It would be prejudicial to Kng
