observation-disclosures of wagons and
farm implements, buggies, carriages and
all wheeled vehicles, find that goods of this
class, put up in this dry climate, endure
far better in all other climates than those
constructed where humidity of the air is
great and prevalent. So, too, those who

all classes of furniture, as regards elm matic
influences.
Second-In all lumber and woodwork
lines the climatic influence is found to be
material factor of profit Woodwork, such
as fruit-boxes, holdings, sash, doors,
blinds, etc, put up here of dry lumber
best procured here-are lighter for ship
ment, more satisfactory to purchasers and
more profitable to the makers Hence,
trade in fruit-boxes, berry-chests, etc,
comes by preference to Sacramento from
Santa Clara and other valleys, directly
under the influence of Il nearer source of
supply.
SACRAMENTO THE GREATEST FRUIT SHIP
PING MARKET IN THE WORLD.
In conclusion, 1t remains to be said that
Sacramento, located in the center
of the great fruit-growing region
and industries of the State, and crowned
with the transportation facilities and adj
vantages above referred to, has become by
far the greatest fruit shipping point in the
world. During the present season, as
many as twenty-five carloads, or two
hundred and fifty tons of green fruit, have
left Sacramento for the East in single
day, while other carloads were consumed
by the canneries or shipped to other points.
During the ninety days preceding the first
of the present month, about twelve hundred
carloads of green fruit were shipped
from Sacramento the East, besides tn :
large amount that was taken by canneries,
and the amount that was shipped else
where. In the three months referred to
about four hundred carloads of vegetables
were also shipped from Sacramento to the
East, making a total of sixteen hundred
carloads, or sixteen Thousand tons, of these
two classes OF products sent out By eastern
overland from this point in ninety days.
These figures are significant.

means employed, and SO steadily was this
carried on, so freely used, and the truth so
strictly adhered to, that the Sacramento
merchants representations through his ad-
yertlsements and business circulars were
accepted without a doubt. Trade which
had gone from the city returned; self-in-
terest awakened to the fact that the argu-
ment of gain was well applied here; the
trade area in a few years enlarged to its
old limits, and in a few more passed be-
yond them, and to-day it extends through
out Northern and Southern California,
has taken hold as far south as Mexico,
and north throughout Oregon, has crossed
the Sierras and invades Nevada, Utah,
Idaho, Montana, Wyoming and Colorado,
New Mexico and Arizona, and has even
penetrated in some lines to the States of
the Mississippi Valley. As the lines of
transportation continue to multiply and
extend so does the future promise for
Sacramento's business.
THE FACTS WHICH TOLD.
What were the arguments and facts that
brought about this happy result which has
placed Sacramento on a sure foundation
and which still remains as true as then {?
They are very familiar to our residents.
We recapitulate them briefly, as we have
done heretofore, for newcomers and those
abroad who are not fully aware of the ad-
vantages that belong to us as city.
First-That for vast area of country
the Sacramento market is the most ac-
cessible, and, therefore, the most economic,
so far as transportation is concerned, and
this was the first point in the argument of
gain.
Second-If the prices of commodities
are az low in the most accessible as in the
more distant market, then in fact the COM
modities are cheaper in the first place.
Third-The most accessible market en-
ables the buyer the more frequently and
readily to freshen his stock and keep up its
assortment, and, therefore again, the most
accessible is shown to be the cheapest, for
| celerity of movement and nearness of point
of supply, all other things being equal, are
important considerations in commerce.
Fourth-The business houses Of Sacra-
mento recognize the fact that the basis of
commercial economy is the assumption of
the right to buy to the best advantage and
sell at the best price. The market which
gives broadest scope for the exercise of this
right is the best market, and on the fact
that Sacramento warrants such exercise

account to be considered in Sacramento
The locality of the business houses of tn.
city is such as to almost eliminate the e65-
ment of drayage, which, like wharfage, is
direct charge against the buyer
The Sacramento merchantS maintain
their establishments at less cost for clerical
and other hire, because of the benefits of
local markets, low cost of maintaining a
household and like advantages.
FURTHER CONSIDERATIONS.
But there are other considerations which
the manufacturers and merchants of Sara
mento put forth with great force. These
we briefly recapitulate:
First-That the Sacramento houses hold
relations with Eastern and foreign markets
equally as close as do those of any other
market, and that the great markets of the
world, through their correspondents and
agents, are as free to them as any.
Second-That the great bulk of merchan-
disc and of manufactured articles come to
Sacramento by rail, and at fully as low
cost as to seaboard marts by the same con-
veyance and in shorter time, which gives
the Sacramento dealer margin of much
advantage, and enables him to carry on
business with as varied stock as is desis-
able without its being excessively large.
while it can be easily and constantly re-
plenished.
Third-That the fixed capital requiHd
to carry on business here is greatly l,ss
than in cities where property is higher,
space more valuable and fixed capital of
necessity heavy. For example, an exten-
sive wholesale business can be carried on
here on a property representing value
not in excess of $4,000, while the same
business as eligibly located in San Fran
cisco would require a property space
which would lock up in its value sum
ten times as great, or necessitate rental
payment which in its relation to like prop
erty, adyantaged as well by reason of de-
sirable business location, stands as l to 10.
Fixed capital, like all other in use, must
be rewarded, and that reward is reaped
from the purchaser.
SOME SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS.
There are other, and special considera-
tions, which give to Sacramento advan-
tages over the bay cities and others, which
will continue to increase the Importance
of the Capital City as trade and manu-
featuring center, and which may be briefly

construction in various parts of that great

THE CALIFORNIA AND OREGON
Railroad was, perhaps, next to the con-
struction of the Central Pacific, the most
important road for Sacramento. 1t runs
from Sacramento northward up the whole
length of the great Sacramento valley,
and latterly has, after overcoming topo-
graphical difficulties of greatest magnitude,
been pushed by its constructors to the
Oregon line, where it united with the Or
egon and California Railroad, now owned
by the same company, and operated as
through line to Portland, Washington
Territory, Idaho, etc, and forming another
great overland road to the East. This
road, after leaving the grand valley of the
Sacramento, and the northern part of the
State, cuts across the Rogue River valley.
one of the most fertile in the world, and
one of the oldest settled agricultural re-
gions Of the coast; next, it taps the imp
qua River valley, and finally enters the
great valley of the Willamette and relates
Sacramento to the entire Central and
Western Oregon trade, and largely to the
whole trade of the northwest.
1t may be said in passing, that our mer-
chants are feeling the influence OF this rail
way connection, and commanding trade
heretofore unknown to them in that Sec
ton. Eventually, either from near the
State line, or by way of the Deer creek, or
of the Fedonia pass, lines of rail must
push into southeastern Oregon, and cross
ing it to Idaho, tap the whole rich north
west, and thus relate Sacramento to trade
section in which she will be able to COM
pete with any rivals.
THE NORTHERN RAILWAY
Is another road converging upon Sacra-
mento. 1t follows the California Pacific road
to the West as far as Davisville, distance
Of fourteen miles, and thence turning north
traverses the broad bottom lands and
plains along the west side of the Sacra-
mento river, uniting with the California
and Oregon Railroad at Tehama. Con-
Meeting with this line is the narrow-gauge
road from Colusa to point near Williams,
and from which junction it is pushing
coastward into Lake county, being already
operated many miles westward Of the
junction. Above this point a line of road
is also building from Willows, on the
!! Northern Railway line northwestward into
Round valley and the Eel river section,
down which stream it will eventually
push to the coast, and thence to Humboldt
bay, and thence northward to Astoria, at
the mouth Of the Columbia, laying that
entire section directly tributary to Sacra-
mento.

How the Flint Glass Manufacturers Hops

The latest move Of the flint glass manu-
facturers leaked ont yesterday afternoon.
They will make another effort to start their
factories, this time with men who are mem
bsrs of the Flint Glass Workers Associa-
ton. The manufacturers say that there
are a large number Of workingmen who are
weary OF the strike, aud would willingly
return to work, if they were not afraid of
being blsck-listed by tho union in the
future after all have returned to work.
The manufacturers now propose to give q
bond of several thousand dollars TO every
flint glass worker who returns to work
that he shall have the preference at all
times, and in no instances shall he be
blscklisted or caused 10 be discharged at
the request or demand of any labor union
or organization Of workingmen.
When Secretary Dillon, of the Flint
Glass Workers Union, was informed Of the
proposition to-day, he ssid that the manu-
facturers could not make any in
roads upon the ranks Of the work
mems union. "They have tried sew
eral times" said he "since this strike
commenced, and they have failed. So far,
manufacturers have only succeeded in Sc
curing five men out of 1900 to leave the
Association and return TO work at their
terms. None of the men will accept the
proposition. The rank and file Of the men
are very bitter against any further concss.
sions to the manufacturers. During the
last conference we received at least half q
dozen kilograms per day asking us to with
draw from the conference"

CLEVELAND WINS.

The Forest City Boys Put Up Strong
Game, Yesterday.
The Cleveland Association team and the
Wheeling clnb came together for the third
time, yesterday, and for the third time the
home boys met hollow-eyed defeat at the
hands of the ex-babies of the Association.
The Cleveland boys put up splendid
game and the inability of the home team
to do much with Bakely' q delivery, and
Morrison's wild work in the first half ol
the game gave them victory, which was
hardly earned.
The visitors got but seven hits of Nor.
rison, but in the first part Of the game he
seemed TO have no control of the ball, and
gave some five or six men bases on called
balls. Stencil backed Morrison up In good
style. After the fourth inning, however,
Morrison settled down, and the Cleveland
men were unable TO do any thing with his
delivery. Bakely for the visitors pitched
very effective game and the Wheeling
boys pounded the air quite numerously.
Goodfellow caught splendid game. The
fielding of the visitors was sharp, and they
are credited with but one error.
Lemons opened the game for Wheeling

to third on bad throw and scored on q

seven innings.

ball, Holaling struck ont and McGloue's .

ran into him purpo5ely and knocked him
down. He was promptly and deservedly
declared out by the umpire, although the
whole club kicked vigorously. The action

all, and the decision was very proper one.
