COMPETING RAILROADS.

Senator Cullom's recent report on COM
mercial regulations with Canada contrasts
the conditions under which the Canadian
Pacific and American roads compete for the
same traffic. The Canadian Pacific Rail-
way. which is another term for the Domin-
ion Government, has received from the Gov
eminent in the form of subsidies and land
grants twice as much assistance as the
United States Government has given to all
the transcontinental railways combined.
1t not only has the benefit of these subsidies,
but in Its efforts to secure through traffic
from this Coast it is relieved from all obli-
CATION to conform to the regulations of the
American Interstate Commerce Act. The
Canadian law gives it authority to fix
charges on its long or short haul of freights.
The transport privilege under bond gives it
all the facilities in carrying freight from
San Francisco to an Eastern city which an
American road enjoys, with the freedom to
cut the rates Of American roads at its own
discretion. The indifference manifested by
Eastern roads in the matter of completing
connection with San Francisco doubtless
arises mainly from the knowledge that
when they have built through roads at
their own expense they will have to COM
pete with a foreign road which is largely
maintained by Government, and which is
free from conditions which tie the hands of
American roads. If the clause in the treaty
of Washington which relates to the transit
ira de were abrogated there would be little
trouble about getting a competing Ameri-
can road through to this Coast. A law re-
quiri ne roads which avail themselves of the
bond privilege to conform to the
condition the Interstate Commerce Act i'm
poses on American roads would help the
American roads, but they would still have
to contend against a heavily subsidized
road. THE CALL favors a competing trans
continental railroad, and as a condition of
such competing road would withhold transit
in-bOnd privileges from any foreign road.
The principle of prohibiting foreign trans
portation companies from engaging in the
American coastwise trade requires the alb
rogation of all treaties which confer upon
foreign land transportation companies
privileges denied by act Of Congress to
water transportation companies. Foreign
vessels are not allowed to transport mer-
chandse between American ports, but a
mere treaty permits land transportation
company to do what a water transportation
company is not permitted to do.

OUR STATE.

A correspondent who does not regard the
division of California as proper question
for discussion says that in our efforts to
let the people of the East know what the
State produced people living in the north
ern and southern counties have made no
distinction between the productions of the
two sections When the Arpad Haraszthy
Eclipse Champagne has been sent from the
north, Riverside navel oranges have been
sent from the south. How would it be, our
correspondent asks, If these things were
sent from two different States? Would
those who have been so active in sending
East California products take like
interest in distributing the products of
another State?
Apparently our southern friends only
look at the political side of the division
question. The two States, they say, would
have four Senators, instead of two, and
might gain Representative on the principle
Of one for sufficiently large fraction. But
would the interests of the whole State
thereby be promoted? And what, perhaps.
is of more importance in the eyes of the
divisionists-would not the new State lose
by separation from the old? The north
and central counties not only possess the
greater part of the territory, but a much
greater variety of industries. In a showing
at the Worlds Fair or other places where
a California exhibit might be made, the
central counties would present much the
greater number of products. The southern
counties might pile up pyramid after pyra-
mid of oranges. but if the inquiry was made
if the new State had no other industry than
orange-growlng, the answer might not be
satisfactory. As one State our showing
may be made complete; as TWO the effect
would be greatly impaired. The division
of the State we regard as utterly out OF the
question, but we would like to see the
southern counties record the admission
that they no longer desire it. We do not
like TO see southern men of the caliber of
Markham and White demand political adj
Yancement on the ground that they are
the representatives of counties which are
agitating to divide the State.

EDITORIAL NOTES,

There are prospects of lively contest
over the vacant Kentucky Senatorship.
Among those who dispute ex-Speaker Car
isles right to promotion are ex-Chief JUS
tice-now State Senator-Lindsay, ex-Gov-
errors j. B. McCreery and Proctor Knott.
Governor Buckner, who is considered a
dark horse, has declared that it would not
be proper for him to be candidate. While
Lindsay Is regarded as a strong candidate,
In public estimation Carlisle is ahead of
him. Still many prominent Kentuckians
claim that the Democratic leader of the
House cannot be spared at present. Then
there are prospects of his nomination for
Vice-President, an honor that might not be
given to him as Senator.
The fate OF the River and Harbor Bill is
to certain extent dependent upon its early
consideration in the Senate. The bill hay
ing been side-tracked in the House TO give
the Tariff Bill the right of way the men,
beers of the committee declare that after the
tariff is disposed Of they will antagonize all
legislation until this measure is passed.
The first election for the Fifty-second
Congress will be held in Oregon next
month, when Mr.. Hermann expects to be
reelected. The Republicans look upon
Oregon as the keynote of the Congress

Debt. the pemoralizer.

Debt-there is no worse demoralizer
of character. The sad records of de-
faulting, embezzliag and dishonest fail
ures which we meet with so constantly
in the daily press are often, indeed
most frequently, the result OF the de-
moralization of debt and consequent
desperate efforts at extrication. The
financial props have given way The
little debt which was at first as small as
a grain of mustard seed, like the rolling
SNOWFALL, has gathered weight and
multiplied itself thousand-fold. And
still it grows, and like the fabulous
hydra which Hercules was sent to kill
you no sooner strike off one head than
two shoot up in its place. The struggle
is severe, but in the end decisive; either
confession is made of a hopeless bank
ruptcy which might and should have
been avoided, or integrity is sacrificed
to the temptation Of the moment Debt
ruins as many households and destroys
as many fine characters as rum; it is the
DEVILS mortgage on the soul, and he is
always ready to foreclose. Be indebted
for nothing but love, and even that be
sure you pay in kind, and that your pay
ments are frequent. -Talmage in N. Y.
