A CLUMSY DEFENSE

The Enterprise continues its clumsy de-
tense of monopoly practices. Speaking OF
the statement that the railroads are crush
ing out the manufacturing industries it
says:
This re showed to be an impudent false
hood. as the truth is that our manufac-
ture are running their mills night and
dav. and il is impossible to find laborers
enough in this country to supply the
present demand for work RS.
What does the Enterprise mean BY sour
manufacturers" If there are any manu-
facturers in this State running night and
day we would like to know more of them.
The anti monopoly newspapers OF the
Pacific Coast complain only of the extor-
tions of the Central Pacific Railroad CON-
pany. All other monopolies are dwarfed
in comparison to this one crushing burden.
To talk about eastern manufactures is SIM
ply lodging an issue vital to the Pacific
Coast With competing lines from the
East across the Sierra SO as to cradle San
Francisco to enjoy low freight rates Cali
fornia would be now the richest and most
prosperous State in the American Union.
Under the existing order OF things Cali
fornia cannot ship law material from the
East to use in manufactures and produce
its wares at sufficient profit to induce CAPT
talists to invest. If it raises the raw ma
terial at home and ships goods East the
high freights prevent anything but an in.
finitisimal profit The manufacturing in
dustry of California is about one fifth
what it might be under favorable auspices.
While Ca ifornia struggles under this bur-
den of railroad oppression Nevada is liter
ally crushed beneath an additional load. We
viii cite an example of how the C. P. E. r.
helped to build up manufacturing interest
in Virginia City. About four years ago
Mr.. Echart, the Superintendent of a
foundery in Virginia City, received an
order for some mining machinery for the
Florida mil near Salt Lake. He prepared
to fill the order, engaged number of
extra men and was about to go ahead with
the work when he received cancel lation
of the order by telegraph. In a few days
.
heavy freight from Reno to Salt Lake had
caused the company to reconsider their
original plan and order the machinery of
San Francisco foundry. The letter closed
as follows, and the writer saw it: 'We
can get the freight $500 cheaper from
San Francisco than from Reno" Will the
Enterprise explain how the C. z. r. R.
built up the foundry business of Virginia
City?

An English provincial newspaper an
nounces that one of the numerous six
penny journals Of London recently had a
staff dinner, an accurate account of which
would be much more entertaining than
anything which has appeared in its col
umns. The feast began with every mark
of amity and ended with shower of tum-
blers, wine glssses and fragments of broken
chairs. A distinguished and popular
journalist, who had recently Joined the
staff, was severely maltreated, The ques-
ton upon which the company appealed to a

There is now living in New York, says
the Oakland Tribune, former United
States Senator who, during his term in
Congress, rendered important and entirely
legitimate services to some of his constit

remark that Senator's wife ought not to

not afford to buy her.

from the East, is as incorporating an

magnitude of the Chinese evil, and that he
has told the Senator personally that he will

THE officers of the Berkeley coun.
ty Agricultural Society, are making
arrangements to have the approach
ing Fair Of the Society, which be-
gins on Tuesday, September 18th,
one of the most attractive ever held.
Now let the people of the county
come forward and aid the officers in
the work by placing their products
of every kind on exhibition; and at
tending the Fair en- masse. Why
cannot rs large an attendance be Sc
cured for the Fair, as attended the
circus last week. The exhibition
will be fully as interesting and
much more instructive and profta-
bic than a circus, and at less rates of
admission. Let everybody go to
work in earnest, and the approach
ing Fair can be- made a red letter
day in the history of the county.
Every farmer and mechanic, is, or
ought to be interested in the fullness
and variety of the exhibition, and
can add greatly to the accomplish
ment of this end, if they so will.
The ladies' too, ought to make a
special effort in the department es-
pecially allotted to them. The exhi-
bition of the handiwork of the ladies
is generally one of the most interest
ing and pleasing features of an Ag-
ricultural Fair, and we trust the la
dies of this county will see to it
that the Exhibition to be held in
September is in no way marred by
lack of interest On their part.
