The niggardly action of the United
mail carrying companies has culmin.
ated at last in the plump refusal CT
the steamship Santa Rosa to carry
the mails from San Francisco to Port
land, and as consequence the accum-
ulate mail of two weeks, including all
the blOckaded mail, is now tied up in
San Francisco and merchants may
whistle for their correspondence. The
Steamer Portland which sailed the
week before the Santa Rosa was paid
81 90, the Santa Rost was offered fifty
cents per bag and refused it. The Brit
ish government pay this same COM
pany $40 per bag from San Francisco
to Victoria and they naturally kick
at. one eightieth the amount from
Uncle Sam. This is strictly in keeping
with the suicidal policy which pays
to foreign ships for mail transporta-
ton S4l5, 294 and to its own ships S4S,-
966, while the Latin American GOV
ernments pay more than five times as
much to American Ships as the Unit
ed States pays. The United States
pays annually mail steamer subsidy
of S469,920 while Great Britain pays
Sc, 1872, 72S. This is British protection
not merely service rates, for in the
case of her West India mails she pays
ESQ, 900 more for sending them than it
would cost her to send them via New
York. The subsidlsing of American
ships is a question that must come
to the front as one demanding afffr-
NATIVE legislation. All American in
terests demand it.

Let We'll Enough Alone,

The proposition of the grand jurors
that DR.. Converse here and the
County Physicians in other counties
shall order inquests over the bodies
of all railroad victims is but another
phase OF the struggle of the Coroners
TO capture unearned public moneys
and to renew the scandals and dis.
graees of their old-time reign in the
house of mourning. The Office of
County Physician was created on the
theory, in the first place, that the
Coroner is supernumerary,
whose services are Of no pos
sible value in the economy of
government, even when he renders
them decently and intelIigently; and
that, in the second place, il it is pos
sible for him to be OF use, his useful
ness can extend to but a very small
proportion of cases in which he has
been won't to act. The County Ply
sician's most responsible duty is to
find every possible excuse for re-
straining a Coroner from offending a
bereaved family by his presence.
DR.. Converse explains clearly
enough in another part of today's
paper why he has permitted the
Coroner to make fees in only nine
out Of one hundred and twenty odd
cases In which no would have acted
before the County Physician stop
cock was put upon his exuberant
ofilciousness It is simply because
no public end could have
been served BY an inquest
