The Southern Pacific's Half Yearly State
msnt.
[San Francisco Bulletin.

San Francisco Bulletin
Though the returns of the Southern Pa
ciic Company for the seven months ending
July 3lst show deficit of 1922, GIG, the in
ference that the system is losing money or
has had bad business is wrong. Thereturns
for that period exhibit an enormous IN
crease, both in the gross earnings and in
the operating expenses, the volume of bus
mess having grown so large that the COM
pany's resources have been taxed to tbe
utmost to handle it. Instead, therefore, of
being in poor condition financially. the
company has never been so prosperous.
The fixed charges are abnormalfy high. but
they include the cost of new rolling stock
which the company was compelled to pur
chase to handle its business. Thousands Of
freight cars. passenger coaches and about
fifty locomotives have already come to hand
and are put down in this category. The
Secretary's statement to the Board of Di-
rectors shows that after paying the United
States requirements under the Thurman
Act, fixed charges, sinking fund charges,
betterments, additions, taxes, etc, there is
surplus of $3.50 600. This does not IN
clnde the rental of 81, 100000 which the
company is bound to pay the Central Pa
cific under the terms of its lease. The
profits for the half year have not been great
enough to cover this $3.50 600 and it is here
the deficit arises.

there was deficiency of ST., 100 600 vet at
the end of the year there was a surplus for
the whole system of 81, 200 600. If he profit

the friend of American labor. All that
may pass for campaign clap-trap. But it
was unfortunate for Mr.. Follet that he re-
ferred to the Cincinnati election outrages
Of 1884. The Democracy figured so in
gloriously and criminally in that tragic
period, that we are amazed that Mr.. Follet
ventures to revive memories of it. The
Cincinnati Democracy broke up ballot
boxes, mobbed polling places, plunged into
unrestrained bribery, and manufactured
returns to aid its nefarious designs. For
all which the people in their wrath over
threw them, and properly sent to the State
Prison a number of the ringleaders. Mr..
Follets references to and reasoning upon
the tariff and tariff legislation must be, if
at all, treated at another time, though they
are stale, and have been over and again
refuted and their hollowness exposed.

LET voters keep this fact clearly in
view: Had the Republican majority in the
Senate approved the Bayard treaty with
out amendment it would have been ratified
by the Chinese. That much the De-
mocracy comedies. But the treaty was
weak and pulseless without the amend
ment which secured its rejection and
whipped the Democracy into giving the
Pacific coast the Scott exclusion bill, which
the Democracy of the Senate did their
best to kill by reconsideration. 1t fol-
lows that whatever good results from
the treaty rejection and the passage of the
Scott bill is to be credited to the Republi-
can party

SUPERINTENDENT FOLEY, of the House
of Correction, San Francisco, reports that
during the year he used the able-bodied
prisoners to labor on the county roads, and
succeeded in building six miles of good
road at nominal expense; that by an
expenditure of $4,000 by the county, the
prisoners built roads that would have
otherwise cost S25, 900 to construct. This
experience ought to teach county govern
ments generally that the worst economy
possible is to keep county prisoners idle.
Here they are in part employed in chain
gangs to work on the public highways, but
in many counties the Jail prisoners lead a
life of ease at the expense of the tax
payers, and have entire freedom from la
Dor. Even in Sacramento county it is
probable that the Jail prisoners could be
more generally employed than they are
'or the public good.
