SOME paper.making monopolists of the
Northwest held secret council in Chicago
recently, and 1t is reported that the ut
most harmony and feeling Of views pre-
vailed. To man they are opposed to any
legislation by Congress that will cheaper
the cost OF manufacturing paper; they
don't want to buy the materials they use
any cheaper than they can now be bought,
and are consequently opposed to the re.
moval OF duties from soda.ash, wood and
straw pulp. While deeming any further
advance in the price OF paper inexpedient
in the present condition OF indignation
and excitement on the subject, the paper
makers have perfect understanding
among themselves, and will doubtless give
the screw OF extortion another turn when.
ever they think it can be done discreetly.
Meanwhile they are arranging for repre-
sentation in Washington in the form Of a
lobby to labor against any and all meas.
ures looking to reduction OF the tariff
on paper or the Ingredients used in Its
manufacture.

ITlooks now as II things had taken a
turn for the better at San Francisco. The
quiet but determined action OF the bust.
ness men in notifying the communistic
Mayor that he would be held responsible
for any attempt Of the Sand Lots states
men to take the administration Of affairs
into their own hands, has had q salutary
effect. Hence there has been no attempt
to expel the Chinese by force, no further
intimidation Of corporations and firms
having Chinese in their employ, and no
further threats to burn the city. The
"hoodlums" evidently have come to the
conclusion that they cannot afford to pre-.
cipitate direct issue with the wealth and
responsibility OF the city, and in future
their leaders, under the wholesome ap-
prehension excited at the citizens meet.
ing, will be less outspokeu than they haye
been heretofore. Another good sign is the
exclusion Of Kearney from the Represen.
tatiye hall at Sacramento, and the arrest Of
Cannon, the so.called chairman OF the SO.
called workingmen's organization, for
using incendiary language. These idle
den 1gogues are thus in fair way Of dis.
covering that, after all, this is a land Of
law as well as land of liberty, and that
freedom Of speech by no means implies
communistic assaults upon life and prop.
erty, or the hostile arraignment Of one
race against another.

OF the West and Southwest. The imme-
diate occasion Of the seizure Of the West
ern Union lines by the Union Pacific rail-
road company was the alleged refusal Of
the telegraph company to receive and
transmit dispatches from the American
Union. This is in violation Of the Pacific
railroadlaw. Thelegal basis Of the seizure
seems to have been the opinion OF ex-
Judge John F. Dillon and Sidney Bartlett
that under the acts creating the Pacific
railroads the carrying and telegraph fran
chises are inseparable, and that therefore
the company had perfect right to seize
the wires in spite Of their contracts with
the Western Union and Atlantic and Pa
ciHc. An element in the case also is the fact
that the government never has recognized
the lease by the Union Pacific road OF liz
telegraph lines to the Atlantic and Pacific.
The controversy is somewhat complicated
by the claim OF the Western Union that
the telegraph facilities on the Kansas
Pacific road are the joint work oil the rail-
road companies and the telegraph com
panies, the former having put up the poles
and:the latter the wires. There is less OPP
portunity for legal contests in the case o.
the Baltimore and Ohio. On that road the
Lines, except those for railroad business
were built by the Atlantic and Pacific com
pany, but there has always been an under
standing that the railroad company coult
take possession OF them any time on pay
ing their cost. The requirement by the
American Union company OF O,0OO miles o

THE IRON TRADE.

Has The Market Reached lis Highest
Point-Thc Prospects for 1850.
During February therewas aslight falling
off in the prices for pig iron, while the de-
mand was more decidedly restricted.
There was drag in the bar iron trade,
following close upon the advance Of the
card rate to four cents, and it is stated the
card rate was not adhered to. The nail
trade alone shows an upward tendency.
The production in the department is
limited, which accounts for this difference.
A comparison OF the lowest prices of 1870
and the highest during last month is as
