RIDICULE OF THE MILITIA

The recent riots in Cincinnati and the
appeal of the Governor to the citizen sol
diery of the State, and the quick and brave
response, have drawn attention anew to this
arm of the country's service. Generally
the usefulness of the National GuardSmen
in that emergency has been sincerely ac-
knowledged. But there have been bit
ter anathemas hurled at the militia be-
cause rioters were killed, while the fact
that the Soldiery lost officers and men has
been practically ignored The citizen sol
diery has, to a greater or less extent, been
made the butt of ridicule, and this occa-
sions the Oakland Vidette to say that such
ridicule and abuse heaped upon the militia
by the press is outrageous. Blamed if
they do fire, ridiculed if they do not, it is
a wonder that the members will have any
thing to do with the department. Their
service is voluntary, and is attended with
not only expense of time, but money. The
militia is the only semblance of a war
footing the country can show. 1t should
be treated with respect. This business of
laughing down everything is a too conspic-
uous trait of American character" The
protest of our contemporary is timely and
none too incisive. Wisdom should encour-
age the National Guardsmen. They are
not hirelings; they serve because they re-
spect and honor the uniform of their
country, revere her institutions and
are attached to her principles. So much
of vanity and Standardization as may en-
ter into militia composition is too insignif-
cant to even be mentioned. Certainly
these men do not devote their leisure and
their means, sacrifice business and home
and serve the State on call for any ignoble
purpose. They constitute the kernel of
whatever military protection we have in
the State. They are drawn from the body
of the people, recruited from the youth of
the land, are Of us and among us Instead
OF being objects for assault, they should re-
ceive cordial encouragement to make the
militia system of the country one Of the
proudest and best arms of free government
The father OF our liberties did not tire of
iterating that in a well disciplined militia
resides the safety of the Republic; but in
these days it has been deemed shrewd by
wits, and not undignitied by Legislators to
sheer at holiday soldiers. The truth is,
that holiday soldiers" have uniformly
proven in all great emergencies the one
mainstay of law and authority, and have
proved themselves not only good citizens,
but our best defenders brave and discreet,
the friends of peace and the conservators
of order

IDEAL LEGISLATION.

Mr. Herbert Spencer declined to be a
candidate for a seat in the Commons.
Why? Because he believed his views
were so widely divergent from those of
party men that he would be forced into
continual antagonism with his own con-
stituents. Believing his views to be right
and well grounded, Mr. Spencer should
therefore have accepted the nomination
If his constituents proved to be so i'll
Informed of the truth as he represents, it
was his duty to avail of the opportunity
offered to lead them Alright 1t does not
testify to his courage that he shrank from
the antagonism." But hear him. "That
which | hold to be the chief business of
legislation-an administration of Justice
such as shall secure to each person, with
certainty and without cost, the mainten-
ance of his equitable claims-is business
to which little attention is paid; while at
tention is absorbed in doing things which
L hold should not be done at ALL" True.
very true and for that reason Mr. Spencer
was the fttest of men to have advocated in
Parliament the true purpose Of legislation.
His ideal is lofty one, but attainable.
The peoples thought becomes as potter's
clay in the hands of truth in time Such
as he are given to aid the people in ap-
preaching ideal legislation, Notwithstanding
that the fruition of his hope cannot be at
tanned in his time

*Capital stock of Central Pacific S.62 per cent
per mile over Massachusetts railway system.
Thus it will be seen that, with capital
investment of 1852 per cent. per mile
greater than that of all the Massachusetts
railways, the Central Pacific system earned
not much more than half as much per
mile, and that its dividends averaged only
2.66 per cent, against 5.04 per cent paid
in Massachusetts. When the enormous
difference in density of population, wealth
and manufacturing and social development
between Massachusetts and California is
considered, it should excite surprise that
the railways can give so low rates of trans
portation as the people of California now
enjoy. The Central Pacific Railway Com
pany has done more for the State of Cali
fornia by far than any other interest, and
the people could well afford to pay, if
necessary, large annual tax for the support
of the road Instead of this, the road has
contributed millions to the State. 1t dis
burses millions every year in the employ
ment of thousands of citizens; it has ex-
pended large sums in building and equip
ping its roads in a first-class manner, in
constructing great docks and large station
houses; in building up suburban stations
and in inviting immigration and tourist
travel from all parts of the world, and yet
it has gone on each year, voluntarily re-
ducing its rates of transportation and in
creasing the facilities offered. The State,
and every locality in the State reached by
the railways, has prospered as the result of
possessing railway facilities; the money
which the railways have earned has been
Immediately poured out into thousand
channels of industry, giving back to the
people of California not only what they
have paid to the roads for transportation,
but the millions obtained from other States
and Territories, and yet we find dema-
gogues teaching the people that they are
crushed by monopoly" and ruined by
the very power that has built them up. A
perrlsal of the last report of the California
Railroad Commissioners and of other doc
uments, in addition to personal inspec-
ton of affairs in that State, has developed
so many facts bearing on this subject that
another article will be required.

INVITING IMMIGRATION.

The Reno Gazette remarks upon the or
ganized methods for inviting immigration
and capital to California which have been
employed by people of this State, and while
emitting all mention of the organized
efforts to check the inflow and investment
Of capital and the tide of immigration
which are apparent to the far-seeing, and
will be present to all, it adds that the
Californians lose no opportunity to show
up their resources and capabilities through
every legitimate means. as it not a little
strange that no organized effort has been
made by the citizens or authorities of Ne
vada to show to the world the vast mineral
resources and latent agricultural capabil-
tiles of this State" it asks. We we're not
cognizant of the fact that no efforts have
been made in Nevada to induce
the settlement and development of
the State, and it is surprising that
there are none; but we do know
that so far as California is concerned, the
State, as a political and social body, has
practically done nothing in that way. All
that has been set on foot and accomplished
thus far is due to private enterprise The
other day State Senator, whose whole
legislative career has been in antagonism
to chief industry of the State, was frank
enough to remark that in his opinion,
the years labors of the immigration agen-
cies of that industry-the chief railway
corporation-have added dollar per acre
per month in value to the available agri-
cultural lands of this State He did not
overestimate it. Besides these agencies,
the State Immigration Aid Society has
been an important factor in the immigra-
ton work. 1t is entirely probable that if
the citizens of the State of Nevada will do
as is about to be done by the people of the
central section of California, and prepare
books, papers and maps, and other printed
information relative to Nevada and her
capabilities, the railroad immigration agen-
cies will open their avenues of distribution
at the East to them, as they are doing now
for California. 1t may dawn upon the peo-
pie of Nevada that the interest of any
great carrying line must be in common
with the section it traverses that it has

WHEAT DECLINE AND GROWING.

The recent wheat declination is capable
of being easily traced to its causes. In the
first place it is not nearly so astonishing as
has been supposed. We have had other
ebb tides in prices, and along the whole
line, for many years, the general tendency
has been downward More of this food
product than there is consumption for at
home, constitutes our surplus and is our
stock in trade for foreign supply The
demand for this is, of course, greater
when there is least production abroad.
But if foreign production results in a sur
plus, no matter whether our own surplus
is large OF small, there must be decline in
prices. Such declines, then, result either
from too great a surplus here and too great a
surplus abroad occurring conformity, or when
there is large surplus abroad alone, with
adequate supply for consumption here.
All declines in prices are aided by specu-
ulators. In this case the growth of 1888
fell off with us, and the Spectator bought
for a rise. Being at last forced to dispose
of his investment, as he saw that rise
was not to come prior to the involvement
to result from the entry of the new crop,
the market was suddenly, and at a wholly
unexpected time, flooded with wheat.
Men lower their prices on what they have
to sell when they are forced to conclude
that it is better to dispose of goods than
retain them at heavy cost for their keep
ing, and wheat surplus always represents
cost for the price for the money locked up in
it, and in the outgo for insurance, etc. Prices
must always be measured upon the buying
plane, not the asking When, therefore,
wheat went suddenly down to II cents,
cash, the other day, it was TO be expected
that something of a panic would result
The decline represented alike the declina-
ton of the foreign price, and that represent
ed the measure of the need for the food in
Europe. As a consequence there was no
demand, even at abnormal prices, for our
wheat on the part of the foreign buyer.
So closely related are the factors of pro-
duction abroad to our own that a Auctua-
tion in price there must be reflected here,
and felt seriously, because all the transac-
tons are large and the margins narrow,
and hence the elasticity of the food mar
ket is very limited As the matters now
stand there is not demand for our products
equal to the surplus of production, if we
except only meats The continuance of a
shortage in wheat demand is dependent
upon the price asked being maintained
that is to say, any surplus of any product
will find a market if the buyers prices are
accepted, and the buyers will command the
market so long as they are in command OF
surplus at home, as at present Of course
this means the possibility of great loss to
some one, but not permanently to the pro-

Queer. He can "get from under" by
changing his products and bidding for
new market with a stronger demand. As
the liability of wheat declines the fuctua-
tions increase-and they will do so where
the disproportion between the need for
food and the supply of it narrows-the dis
position will be to vary our growth, and
thus necessity will second the advice that
has been so long given by agricultural
writers. With the enlargement of the
wheat growing area on both sides of the
Atlantic, in parts of Asia and the probable
projection of India into the problem, the
probabilities of high tides in wheat prices
are exposed to greater liability of decrease
and infrequency. We may conclude, there
fore, that wheat may never wholly rebound
to the higher prices; that it may not, after
each great decline, recover the plane of
the average maximum of the period from
which declination dates Wheat-growing,
in short, is to be engaged in with greater
discretion, and attention is to be given
more than ever before to other agricultural
Droducts

genuineness upon the world as to be incor-
