THE Eastern press is awaking gradually
to a realization of the truth that this
competition of the Canadian Pacific Rail-
road is not one local to the Pacific coast,
but that it is national in its character and
all embracing in its scope. 1t involves
the very essence and life of the protective
principle to which the Republican party
is so firmly pledged, and if the application
of that principle is not made in protection
of home railroad industries, it is not
worthy of interposition in any case. The
simple question for the nation to pass
upon the coming winter is this: "Shall
foreign carrier be permitted to transport
the movable commerce of the country,
while home roads in enforced idleness are
tied hand and foot by regulations that do
not and cannot apply to and control the
foreign competitor?"

merchantmen. for the latter had its posi-
tion under harbor regulations, and the
Admiral had no right to order differently.
The affair will be settled as to Germany,
by the extension of an apology by the
Naval Bureau, but it is said that the
Dominion will not be satisfied unless the
question of the power of the home govern
ment in the matter is decided in its
favor-.hat is to say, made in the form of
an official acknowledgment that a Domin-
ion harbor in the time of peace is within
the sole control of the local government,
and that it is an offense for any naval
officer to breach the local regulations.
And in this position we are inclined to
think the Dominion authorities are
strongly fortified.

The report comes by wire that in all
probability the Government will accept the
cruiser Charleston with an order attach
ing forfeiting $4,000 of the contract price
because the horsepower under forced
draught on the late trial did not come up
TO the requirement 1t is to be hoped
that the Navy Bureau will not insist upon
this forfeiture. The naval officers admit
that the Government has in the cruiser a
splendid ship, one that is seaworthy in
every sense, and that speeded up almost to
the required knotage under forced draught
IN heavy and uncertain sea, and during
a longer run than the trial regulations de-
manded. 1t is the belief of machinists
and engineers that under normal condi-
tions the ship will easily make nineteen
knots and develop all the horsepower
that is possible to be used in practical serv-
ice. Il is of the highest Importance to
the Government that cruiser building
should be encouraged upon this coast-in-
deed it is more a matter of concern to the
Government than to the contractors of the
present or the future. The forfeiture re-
ferred TO will not tend to spur the latter to
any better efforts, since it is fact that no
builder Of motive power can accurately
calculate the possible horse power develop
meut of an engine under conditions that
are likely TO obtain at sea. The larger
the normal horsepower handled, the more
difficult TO determine the need that will
develop the maximum under abnormal
conditions The Government of the United
States should not, in the infancy of the
new era of war-ship building on this coast
insist upon such technical compliance as
will discourage the art, so long as there is
delivered TO the Naval Department n ship
equal TO all the service to be demanded o.
her. Il is not lost sight Of, that to waive
the forfeiture is setting a precedent that
might lead to abuses. But something mus
be conceded to discretion and the circum
ct'sAiNSa' Ia thS HitsSiit lHStdnCc the UrS
delay and loss TO the contractors was due
TO the insistence by the Government
upon construction of the ship after
the model of japanese ship-of
war that our engineers disapproved. Be
sides, the margin of horsepower below tn,
requirement is very small in the case o
the Charleston, and the belief is expressed
by naval officers of the Government tina
in fair sea and with screws both i'm
nersed the speed required would be OBJ
tanned, and that higher horse-powe,
would be developed. 1t would seem tha
rather than inhict so heavy a forfeitur
upvn this initial effort to contract on thi
coari, the Government itself could afior,
10 give the Charleston test under NOR
favorable conditions at its own cost.

Under the head of THAT Telegram, -
the RepublicGn has this to say editorlallv

communication in defense of our local re-
porter for the Associated Press appears in an
other column, TO which We invite respectful
attention. as we are inclined TO sympathiZe
with the re lorter in this matter. The heading
of the telegram, -" No Water at Placerville," was
written at the RECORD UNION Office as every
man familiar with newspaper customs should
know. A press reporter from this city has
hard time of it if he pays any attention TO those
who find fault with him. He may exercise in
finite trouble and patience in sending nice tele-
grams about the town and county. for which he
receives a beggarly pittance from the Associated
Press when they consent to publish them, and
no thanks from anybody. But if he happens to
send few lines that are supposed TO lnjuTe
some ones real or imaginary interests, no mat
ter whether the statements are true or not he is
vigorously denounced as though he were an
enemy to society. On the whole, it is probably
best for the press reporter, no matter who he
may be at different times TO remember that he
is employed simply to gather news OF interest
to the State, and that he is not paid to boom
either public or private interests. When he fur
nisheS all the Interesting news reliably his duty
ends, for he is not g " boomer nor a real
estate agent, nor one upon whose shoulders
rests the whole responsibility for the success or
failure of the Community IN which he resides.
He can ordinarily be trusted to say all he can in
favor of his own home, but the public should
remember that he is paid to gather news and
tell it truthfully-not to play the boomer"
nor to suppress some facts and distort others.
In the present case the statement concerning
the unusual scarcity of water is true of this
place JUST as IL is true OF AuDurn, Fly mouth ana
every other foothil town. eur situation is bet
ter than in most places, for we have an abund-
ance of water for domestic purposes; but for
mining, mill power and irrigation of any con-
siderable extent there is a serious scarcity due
not 10 local conditions, but TO the universal
drought on account of the deficiency of snow in
the mountains during the last three winters. a
condition which is likely to bring about a still
greater scarcity in few weeks from now. In
Placer county the farmers have been agitating
the water question for weeks for the scarcity
there threatens their growing orchards The
ditch which supplies the plymouth mines is
perfectly dry-a condition hitherto unknown.
streams from the mountains that have hitherto
carried from 500 to 500 inches of water in the
driest part of the summer contain less than
sluice head. So far as the telegram is con
cerned il was so worded that people may have
supposed that our scarcity of water is peculiar
to this place, instead OF being general along
both slopes of the SierTas. This was not falsifi-
cation, however and as lover of fair play we
dislike to see the reporter bounced" where he
is not guilty of any real or intentional wrong.

THE HAMILTON CASE,

Mrs. Hamilton denies her guilt No
one expected that she would admit it. In
spector Byrnes declares that there is no
possible doubt to be entertained in regard
to the infapy of the woman, or that she
conspired to defraud Hamilton We do
not recall case of equal Importance where
the disclosure of foul combination has
been so swiftly exposed. Il is suggested
that the famous Cunningham-Bu.de case
of twenty years ago is nearly a parallel
but in that case the truth was not for
long time known, and the conspiracy sue
ceeded the murder. In this case it is
probable that murder was to follow, and
that had not the woman's temper got the
best of her, the murder of Hamilton would
have followed the foisting of the infant,
purchased of a midwife, upon him as his
own child. The explanation of Hamil-
toms infatuation for the adventures that
is given by his friend Charles A. Peabody
accords with the thought already expressed
by the REcoRD-UNIoN. Mr.. Peabody
says:
Mr. Hamilton was man of ineXperience in
intrigues. 1t is always such men who become
entangled. Had he been man who had given
any portion Of his life to that sort of thing he
would never have been entrapped: but he was
impressionable and chivalrous. He was ready
to believe the protestatons of affection for him
made by this clever woman and having once
given his col idence, it was in accord with the
nature ofthe generous and faithful man that he
glt~N FNraNx I1a I.,I
had any conception of the true character of the
woman. 1t was doubtful whether he had had
any conception of how bad it was possible for
the woman to be other than she seemed. The
attitude of his mind toward women. which
HamiltonS education and breeding had incul-
Gated, made it difficult for him to realize that
woman could be so base as to be beyond the re-
forming power of love and better circumstances.
Having once become infatuated it was not diff
cult to understand how Hamilton took the
woman at her word and accepted the child as
his. Having accepted this, there was nothing
20 open his eyes until the abiding occurred,
and the revelations which followed il were
made. II did, indeed, seem almost incredible
that man could get so deep into the tolls of an
adventures but it has been demonstrated that
he could, not only in the case OF Mr.. Hamilton,
but OF other men at various times, and in most
OF the instances the victim was educated, re-
fined and unused to such adventures. The
mans very superiority. intellectual and moral
being the cause of his shipwreck,
The philosophy of this reasoning is
sound. 1t is fact that cannot have es-
capped the notice of any observant person,
that the refined, cultivated and intellectual
man or woman who is withdrawn some
what from worldly walks and experiences,
is far more apt to fall into the tolls of the
sonspiring than those who have more of
that worldly wisdom that is gained by
attrition with varied classes of humanity,
high and low. Whether this is to the
credit of the man of the world is ques-
tion not unworthy of debate.

WATER AT PLACERYILLE.
A Telegram That Caused Considerable
Co,nnant

Comment.
Some days ago the RECORD UNION pub
lished telegram from Placeryille headed,
mo water at Placerville," stating that the
water supply in that section was very low.
The Placerville Democrat published an ar
ticle denouncing our telegraphic report as
untrue and calling upon US to do Placer
vile the justice of correcting the statement.
We printed the Democrats article in full.
Now comes the Placerville Republican back
ing up our reporter in the original telegram.
The Republican prints this communication:
THE OLD, OLD STORY.
The editor of the Democrat has penchant for
fault finding with anything that does not
emsnate in mis- prolific brain.
This time he asSails the local report for the
Associated Press. and mourns the absence of the
fool killer because said reporter stated the SIM
pie facts regarding the shortage of water in this
vicinity, and says it is not best TO publish the
facts to the world, as it will not induce immigra-
tion.
Now we are Numerically opposed to induc-
ing immigration by misrepresentation. If we
cannot show facts that viii justify people in
coming and settling amongst us, we had better
vacate the ranch and let squatters take possess
sion. But we have no inclination to give up the
ship, for we have climate, and SOIL and energy
and pluck, with a commuI ity of intelligent, en-
terprising people who are proud ana content
with their surroundings, and who will not sane
ton duplieity in those who represent them.
II our water supply is short this year our
water system is the best in the tate, and while
other communities have sustained entire loss of
water on account of the absence of the usual
snow fail in the mountains, we have an abund-
ance for domestic use, and we are glad to know
that when a message appears in the Associated
Press headed PlaeerviEe, that it is reliable.
