ON THE EVE OF WAR

There IS very black war cloud in the
East. War preparations by Russia and
Austria led to the rumor that the former
intended to occupy Bulgaria, and the latter
SerYia. Turkey, entirely cognizant of the
desire Of Greece for a struggle to regain
her lost possessions, called on England TO
command the Hellenic State to disarm.
Greece refuses to be thus coerced. and an
peals to England not to attempt interior
ence, but as matter of precaution moves
her fleet to open waters to avoid its being
locked in by 4 blockade. Az the eastern
States are packing their magazines and
strengthening their forces The Gar and
The Austrian Emperor are secretly encour-
aging the discomfort of Greece and Servia.
Roumania will dispute any Russian move
ment across her territory, and is preparing
Tor an emergency. Greece rightly objects
TO the neglect TO re-establish her authority
over States on her upper borders, and is
sore to the heart that subjects of her rule
are still under Bulgarian domination.
For long years she has cherished the hone
OF regaining her lost possessions. 1t is
half century since Greece became indie
pendent, but she suffered for the luxury in
dismemberment, by a surgery that was as
cruel as 1t was unavoidable on her part.
She believes now that she sees the begin
ming OF that end which may witness the close
OF Moslem domination in Europe-itself an
enemy to civilization-and hence welcomes
any agency that will hasten it. She will
make Macedonia the very cockpit of war,
III order to regain her lost northern prov-
inces, and is preparing to defy the warn
ing OF the powers not to enter upon war
of re-eonquest. If she shall be the means
of Wrestling from the unspeakable Turk the
remnant Of his power in Europe, the free
people Of the world will hold her in kind
regard. II she shall regain union with
the provinces once hers, but still Greek in
all the name implies, The world outside of
Europe viii be pleased with her success.
as 1t will sympathize with her if she fails.
The rumor is that Seryia, distant as she is
from Greece, contemplateS an alliance with
the latter for defense and aggression. 1t
seems altogether improbable, since it will
be dangerous in the extreme, but it is not
impossible. If it is consummated it will
mean an attempt to utterly break Turkey,
and in this effort Austria viii probably no;
be unwilling to take hand" however
much she may now openly declare for
peace. She can occupy an antagonistic
position to Russia, and still be agreed with
her in dividing the booty if the fall of the
Porte IS brought about.

THE MINISTERIAL FALL.

The SAYING that the unexpected always
happens does not hold true in the English
Administration situation of to-day. The
Queens speech was an unrnistakable decla-
ration in favor of new coerciye measures
in Ireland, and was fat refusal to listen
10 any home-rulc propositions. On the
heels of this came Sir Michael Hicks
Beach's notice of bill to suppress the
Irish National League, and other dan
gerous societies" Then followed Ceilings
amendment TO the address, and the vote
expressive of want OF confidence in the
Queens poIicy-S29 TO 2J0-was the natu-
raj sequence. All this was the ex-
pected.n and hence the downfall of the
Salisbury Ministry has been but the fulfill
ment of some weeks of prophesying by far
sighted English correspondents. To-day
the formal RESIGNATION of the Government
will be made, and then we may look for
sweeping change in the ministerial policy

The Yolo Mah referring to our obiec-
ton to the feasting of reporters at the
opening Of the citrus fair III San Francisco.
as preliminary to securing "good reports"
says that this journal favored similar
action recently, and asks why the change :?
The Maa is in error. The Board of Trade
OF Sacramento entertained members of the
press on an express invitation from that
body. 1t was for the purpose of extending
hospitality to visitors and to inform the
press men what steps were being taken to
develop and settle northern California.
They were called together not to secure
puts for the Floral Festival, but as an act
OF hospitable courtesy, and to advise
them what the Board had been doing rela-
tive to the peopling of the north section.
The Board was not managing fair or a
show. 1t had nothing for sale, nothing to
be pulled. TWAS engaged in a broad public
work in which it already had the aid of the
press, and it asked its representatives to sit
at its board in all sincerity. The case is
very different from that of a call to beer
and sandwiches on the opening Of a show
for an admission fee. No member of the
press present could possibly feel that any
bride was offered him. He could only
realize that he was being entertained as
stranger by u representative commercial
body Of a prosperous city; a body that
was sincere in doing the honors for the
city, and was able to foot the bills and not
feel it; 4 body that had been for months
working in harmony with the press for
common end-the good of the whole north
section of the State.

BY this table we find that the average
annual temperature at Colfax for five wears
was 500 or lacking less than 10 of
being equally as high as Los Angeles.
while the lowest point touched by the Their
mometer in five years was once 26o above
zero and the next, lowest $50. And these
observations, remember, were taken in the
| village of ColfaX, where it is no uncommon
thing for the thermometer to fall from 20 to
A. lower than 1t does upon the adjacent
ridges and table lands upon which all of
our frultculturlsts are setting their vines
and trees at the present time. Again, COM
pairing the mean temperature for six
months commencing with March, we find
that ColfaX averages Just the same as Los
Angeles
Now does not this prove, if the Their
mometer is to be the test, that our footbill
lands, even to an altitude of ., 400 feet. are
just as much the natural home of the
citrus fruits as the average land in south
ern California. | respectfully submit that
it does. And if our people and press will
be equally as public spirited in proclaim
ing these facts as the people and press of
the southern part of our State have been.
| firmly believe that we can and shall see
in the very near future, our foothills of
the Sierras teeming with prosperous peo-
pie, giving new impulse and life to every
department of trade and commerce.
One more comparison / wish to make.
although l am reminded that comparisons
are odious, and that is this In most all of
the settled portions of the southern part of
our State the cultivation of the soil is i'm
possible without irrigation. And it is con-
coded that in most cases and places the
limit of supply is already reached, and the
cost enters into the calculation of profits
very largely, while in our foothills, from
an altitude of 800 to 2,400 feet the aver
age rainfall for five years has been 46. %
inches, and no irrigation whatever is
needed. Thanking you for your endeavors
to attract attention to the merits of our
foothills in the past, and trusting that these
tables of observations may be Of service to
you in the future, l am yours for northern
California, G.. O. HAYFoRp.

RAILWAY ADMINISTRATION.


In another column we quote the edi-
torial expression of the Chicago Times on
railway administration. The Times has
always been free lance-rather inclined,
however, to be radical in the matter of
railway legislation, but still of such ju-
dicial judgment as not TO be drawn into Il
mere popular swim for popularity's sake.
1t indorses, in the article referred to, the
declaration of Mr.. Perkins to the Con-
gressional committee on the interstate
commerce measures, where he SAYS that
" considering the development of the coun-
try, the low rates that everywhere pre-
vail, and the facility with which persons
and property are now transported, the
wisdom of any legislation that would
look to change of the conditions
under which have been evolved re-
suits so beneficial, may well be doubted.
The problem is working itself out more
rapidly than could have been considered as
possible twenty years ago, and the cause for
wonder is not that railways, in common
with human affairs generally, are yet i'm
perfect, but that they have been able to
make so much progress" etc.
The Times believes that studious review
will convince any candid person of the
truth of these observations. 1t supposes
that Congress had twenty-five years ago
prescribed an elaborate code of rules and
regulations, and concludes that the railroad
system, so hedged about, would have made
no greater progress toward satisfactory
solution than il has made without such
legislation. Indeed, it believes such action
would have proved hindrance, and have
greatly retarded the advance toward the de-
sired goal.
1t refers to the fact that railroad
men Of broadcast experience still confess
that the evolution Of our railway system
surpasses the knowledge they possess of its
intricacies and wonderful laws of develop
ment and adjustment
The Times concludes that the best quide
for the statute maker that experience has fur
aished, is not tound IN the worki,,g Of regulatire
enaetneats, but in the surprisingly rapid pro-
gress that the rajlicay system has itself made IN
the direction Of satisfactory adjustment of It's
relations to the conditions and rants of socie-
ty.' These remarks furnish texts for
elaborate comment, but it is scarcely need
ed, and would add little to the force of the
Times expressions, which should be read
by every man who is open to reason.
