One Of our most formidable rivals in the
San Francisco market at present is the
Australian. but as freigh, must Of ne
cessity be much higher, on account Of
the greater distance. We have in that
respect greatly the advantage. Eng
land completes with us for the time be-
ing, for the reason that the wheat fleet
bring coal for exchange cargo but this
cannot continue long as England will
soon need all her coal a. home. She
will find it more to her advantage TO
send out her chesp hardware and other
manufactures Tor return freigh,s. in
stead of competing with the local coal
supply. with distance aud tariff against
them. The cost Of transportation from
Penusylvanis Is 50 10 tlo per ton. hence
the East can never come into serious
competition with us.
In case the over-supply ia the
San Francisco market should con-
tinue. there are two resources for the
maintenance and increase Of our mar
ket. One is the establishment Of local
manufactures tn consume larger pro
portion Of the product Of our collieries
ct home. The other is the cheaponing
a frcights by tho development of
ship building on the Sound. II is
stated by the Journal quoted above.
that II freight FROM Seattle and NanAi-
mo could be lowered 10 $3.50 per ton.
our Goals could be placed on the San
Francisco market ct from t45o TO
t6.0o per ton.
