INDIsCRIMINATE CHARITY.

Rev. Mr. Henry, of San Francisco, on
Sunday, preached on Mathematics in
Charity" His idea is that IN doing
charity we should not calculate but act
upon the impulse. That sounds humane
and well, but as a matter of fact it is the
poorest way of dispensing charity to act
upon the impulse of the moment. 1t
amounts to indiscriminate alms-giving,
which experience has demonstrated to be
the least effective and humane method of
dispensation. 1t results in the unworthy
sharing equally with the deserving, and
imposture thrives under it while modest
poverty suffers on in misery. Mathemat-
les in charity to greater extent than now
introduced would result in greater relief
being administered, and more than that, in
fraud being defeated. The Board of Char
tiles of New York years ago proved this to
be true, and out of that demonstration
grew the system OF associated charities
which acts upon the methodical, if not the
mathematical plane. In short, indiscrimi-
nate alms-giving is the worst kind of dis
tribution. Men cannot so well be the
almoners of their own charity, the associa-
tions that by experience learn how to help
the poor best by enabling them to help
themselves, can do far more with the gifts
of the benevolent than they can themselves

efficacy. but also in its perfect freedom
from every Objectionable ingredient, since
1t is derived from the purest and most sal

CHICAGO WORLDS FAIR.
Views as to How California Exhibit
Should BE Made

Views as to How q California Exhibit
Should BE Made.
lSan Francisco Alta California
w. H. Mills. when spoken to Yesterday
by q reporter for the Altd on the subject of
the organization of clubs preparatory to
making proper exhibit for the Worlds
Fair at Chicago, said the matter was
worthy of close study and he did not see
any existing organization in the State
exactly fitting or broad enough in its scope
to deal with the matter as it should be dealt
with.
He thought that departments ought to
be organized representing the various in.
dustries, and he did not believe any Cham
Der of Commerce or Board of Trade. as
such, possessed within itself sufficient
versatility to deal with the matter properly.
He thought general committee, composed
of 200 persons, should DE selected, in which
the various Boards of Trade, representative
men from sill the railways. manufacturers,
and all the various industries of the State
should be represented. He thought the
native woods of the State, and redwood es-
pecially, should be under the control of the
furniture manufacturers; so, lumber for
building purposes, like sugar-pine, and the
woods used in the manufacture of wood
pulp, should be represented by individuals
familiar with each industry. Topographic
cal works, like printing, engraving and
lithographipg, should be represented. The
200 should constitute Board of Control,
who should select small Executive Com
mittee. who should see to it that exhibits
were selected and properly prepared by
hired agents. 10 this way, he thought. an
exhibit of the various industries of Califor-
mia could be gotten together and make a
proper showing.

The Importance of the action of public
spirited citizens in forming street inn
provement company was illustrated yes
terday in the Board of Trustees of this
city. The prices for graveling streets it is
proposed to grade and pave were brought
down by the bids of the company to a
figure only little over half as high as the
old-time bids that it was the custom to
make for street Improvement in this city.
Making due allowance for fair profit on
the part of private contractors, this proves
that in the past the citizens of Sacra-
mento have been paying altogether too
much for street improvements. 1t shows
the people, also, what they can do by CO.
operating in public-spirited enterprises.
Now let us abandon utterly the farce Of
scraping up the ciods annually and
smoothing the mud on the streets, and
hereafter expend the equivalent Of the ten
or twelve thousand dollars each year here
tofore thrown away, in stimulating perma.
nent improvements of the city highways

The ball game at San Francisco on Sun.
day between the Sacramento and Oakland
clubs was, judging from the accounts in the
Bay papers, the most interesting of the sea.
son. All reports agree that the Capital CITY
youths played fine ball. Here is what the
Examiner says of them:
Playing ball altogether fielding in an
almost faultless manner, hitting together
and at the right time. the Sacramento club
yesterday toyed gently with the Colonies
the men who own the big red, white and
blue pennant bearing the words Cham
plons" In huge letters reading the wrong
way-for the first part of the game yester.
day at Haight street, and then, as wind
up, let them down hard enough to lar the
nerves OF every Oakland man in the lot.
The game itself was hummer. There
wasn't dull minute in it from start to
finish.
Seven thousand people went out expect
ing to see good game, and the fact that
they made more noise than the opening
day crowd was the best evidence that thew
enjoyed themselves.
And it was Sacramento crowd. There
were tnousanO OF more oakland follow
ers in the yard, but when the rest of the
populace got up and yelled the Oakland
contingent seemed out of place-enjo loved
themselves about as much as deaf, dumb
and blind man would at Patti concert.
Sacramento had out its strongest nine,
but the main obstacle the Colonies had to
contend with was the man the Senators
had in the box-Harper.
His pitching was magnificent. 1t was as
fine an exhibition of strategy and skill as
has been seen on a California League dia-
mond. Always good pitcher, Harper
yesterday seemed to Guido all his previous
performances. His speed was terrific and
control all that could be desired. True, he
sent four men to first on balls, but twice
the present of first was intentional on
Harper's part, and was but the exercise of
that rare good judgment he used through
out the entire game.

EMPLOYEES pRopRIEroRsHIp.

One of the largest mercantile retail
concerns in the country, famous New
York house, has incorporated. In all the
past its earnings have been enormous,
though the per cent. of the profits has
been as low as one and half or two upon
the capital invested. When it was an
nounced that the firm would change its
character by incorporation, in order to
enlarge its capital considerably, there was
a rush to take the stock. But the pro-
moters of the scheme wisely closed their
books to all except the employees, and will
not open them to outsiders, unless there is
not sufficient subscription in the house.
They did better still-they so arranged
that the employees could take the stock and
pay for it gradually out of their earnings
by easy installments. The result has been
thus far that the stock has been taken as
fast as offered.
BY this means the firm has made Its
employees partners in the business. 1t now
becomes the interest of each person in the
vast establishment to conserve economy
and to enhance the success of the business,
for he or she thereby adds to the earnings
they will draw from the concern. The
men and women in the house thus become
investors, when, under other circumstances,
they would live up to their incomes and
have nothing left for an sold age fund" 1t
is true that, as investors they become pro-
portionally liable for the possible debts of
the concern, but such risk is not nearly
so great as if each of the employees were in
business for himself or herself. They put
very little at stake, but assure themselves
of a safe and good return, with only the
minimum liability of failure or of ultimate
loss. Their interest is greatly more in the
success of the house than if they were
simply profit-shearers without any owner
ship or control in the business. All such
workers are led to take new view of the
relations Of capital and labor, and to un-
derstand great deal better the real mutu-
atty of interests that exists between them.
OF course this is not the first case of
such an adjustment of relations between
the founders and the employees Of bust
ness, but it is the most important instance
of the kind in the country, since the house
referred to is the largest in America, if
not in the world. Its example ought to
be to other concerns model for similar
action. 1t is a system that need not be
limited to great houses, but can be carried
out successfully with safe business ven
lures where there are so few as twenty en-
ployes. The experience of the past proves
that under this system the interests of the
founders of business rarely diminishes;
they secure greater efficiency, lessen their
responsibility as individuals, and enlarge
their capital and the business scope of the
concern, at one and the same time. There
is no guaranty for fidelity aud efficiency
that is equal to or at all comparable with
that of the interest of proprietorship.

THE comments of Assistant Secretary of
the Treasury Tichenor upon the immigra-
ton laws ought to be sufficient to secure
the amendments which he points out are
necessary in order to make them effective.
1t appears that while certain classes are
forbidden entry. as paupers, convicts,
idiots, and those likely to become public
charges, the means employed to enforce
this inhibition do not extend beyond the
seaboard. These and all other forbidden
classes can come over the land borders of
Mexico and the Dominion, and there is
practically no means of stopping them.
This being so, the inhibition is inconsist-

ent and discriminating to degree that is
farcical. OF course the expense Of guard
ing our extended interior border lines
would be very great, but so long as the
bars are ordered up the means Of keeping
them at uniform hight should be provided
by Congress. The bars ought to be higher,
stronger and more repellant than they are;
the privileges extended to those outside to
come in and enjoy the magnificent heritage
that is ours are too broad now, but they
should at least be guarded with jealousy,
and the laws erecting them enforced uni
formly.
