Californians recognized America's late-nineteenth-century annexation of Pacific territories as an opportunity to expand the commercial and industrial power of their state. Consequently, proponents of expansion viewed the issue through a local lens as they desired to use the policy to give California economic independence from the eastern United States. Within the state, Northern Californians considered expansion as a defense against the erosion of their domination of the Pacific Coast. Southern Californians believed expansion would help improve their ports and rail connections, thereby giving the region greater economic freedom from both the eastern states and San Francisco. In both regions, the proponents of expansion targeted critics of annexation and the Filipinos rebelling against American authority as obstructions to California's prosperity. The state's non-traditional papers included their conception of government power in their local evaluation of expansion. Their opinions regarding expansion had a strong correlation to their view of the government's authority. Consequently, the labor press focused upon its fear of a strong central government in addition to its worries about Asian workers. The agricultural press, on the other hand, saw benefits to expansion, as it considered such a policy as a means to encourage the government to carry out desired actions such as the construction and ownership of the Nicaragua Canal and the regulation of plants imported into California.
