y FOUR-YEAK TERM.

First Assistant Postmaster-GeneralC Clark
son has been classed Gs spokesman in con-
tradistinction to a civil service reformer,
He made a speech in Boston recently in
which he took strong ground against that
kind of civil service reform which would
give life tenure TO subordinate officers. In
his speech at the banquet Tuesday evening,
Mr.. Clarkson declared himself in favor of
fixed tenure Of Office, but opposed to life
tenure. He thinks all officials should go to
the people once in four years for renewal
and approval. This fUur-year term and
service reform is gaining favor in both
parties, Mr.. Cleveland allowed a good
many fouT-year terms to expire even when
they had from one to three years to run.
II this policy is adopted by both parties. it
is as fair for one as for the other. Ali the
Offices TO which there is a fixed term will
come under the appointing power in the
course Of each Presidential term. 1t is
only fair 10 Office holders that they should
hold for fixed term, subject, of course, to
removal for misconduct when charges are
established. A better class OF business
men will accept Office with fixed term at
tached than will be willing to take the
chances of dismissal whenever an election
goes against their party. President Harri-
son has, without an absolute declaration of
purpose, allowed commissions issued by
his predecessor TO expire unless there were
substantial reasons for immediate action.
The morning call., 1890-07-03
GOVERNOR BILL.

In view Of Governor Hills position as n
Presidential aspirant everything he may
say possesses certain interest. People
would like to know something Of the man
who has about as good chance as any
other of being nominated by the Demo
cratic party for the next Presidency. Gov
ernor Hill is unlike Mr.. Cleveland in the
candidacy for the Presidential office, in that
he has never held a national office. He is
pretty well known in New York, but has
not become known to the nation at large, as
most Presidential candidates have, through
service in the national Congress. We do
not know that Governor Hill has defined
his position on the tariff question, the sill
yer question or other leading national
issues. He las a great deal to say about
Democracy, but has not yet let the country
know what Democracy means. Mr.. Cleve-
land is also a Democrat, but there are points
of difference between Mr.. Hill and Mr..
Cleveland. In a speech at indianapolis be-
fore the Hendricks Club Governor Hill
touched upon the tariff question, and full
report of his speech will doubtless be found
interesting. He is reported by telegraph as
saving that the Democrats are not in favor
of free trade. They favor, Mr. Hill said,
an equitable revision Of the present op-
pTeSsive tariff on the necessa5ies of life.
What are the necessaries of life which the
present tariff imposes burdens upon2 The
theory Of the Republican tariff is TO impose
duties on articles which may be produced
either at home or abroad. We impose du-
ties ON steel rails and other grades Of iron
and steel manufacture TO enable our home
manufactures to pay American wages and
still supply the home market. We impose
duties on foreign woolens for the same rea-
son. Probably goods upon which duties
are imposed in pursuance of this policy are
a little higher than they would be if impor-
tatiens were untaxed. but the public would
like to know whether Mr.. HIPS Democracy
would require the admission of such goods
free? A tariff for revenue is not tree trade.
A tariff for revenue may not, however, be
in any sense protective tariff The rev.
enues may be derived from duties on arti-
cles that We necessarily import. But duties
on such articles add precisely their amount
to the price to consumers. Some of these
articles, coffee and tea for example, are
necessaries of life; but under revenue
tariff it is articles of this nature that would
stand the brunt of taxation,

PROSPECTS OF WHEAT.

AT this season of the year the bulls and
bears Of the wheat market vie with each
other in circulating crop canards. On the
one hand we are told that the English crops
are a failure in consequence OF long con-
tinued wet weather. On the other we are
promised a crop in the valley States which
will exceed the widest estimates. For the
interested observer there is one safe rule to
TO How and that is to watch the course OF
the Chicago and Liverpool markets. Their
tendency Will reveal the state of the crops
far more reliably than the circulars of
brokers or the bulletins of the Agricultural
Bureau. Operators in those marts have
access to the very best information and can
afford to pay for it, Except when the mar
ket is rugged by spectators prices tell the
story so that he who runs may read.
For several days the markets at Chicago
and Liverpool have been firm, but the up
ward tendency has not been so marked as
to create a furry in either market So long
as No , Milwaukee sells at Chicago at S.
cents for August delivery and cargoes of
California wheat off the coast are not worth
over So sh filings at Liverpool it is safe to
assume that there is no present apprehen-
sion of a wheat famine. 1t is probable
however that England will want more
wheat than usual from this country, and 1t
is also probable, as is stated, that the crop IN
the Punjab is a partial failure The Dan
ubian crop promises to be good, and ac-
counts from the river valleys in this country
point to fair yield. If when thrashing
begins in England the results fall short of
expectations an advance in this country
would take place
In this State wheat men have concluded
that this years crop will not vary much
from 100000 tOns-say 100000 tons for eX-
port, either in the shape Of wheat or flour.
The bulk Of this will of course so to Eu-
rope. In several European cities there is
steady and Increasing demand for breads
which are made out of California -four. To
this extent our market is independent of
fluctuati in price. The European who
cannot breakfast without rolls made of
California flour will have them whether
wheat is 81 30 or 81 80 a Genital We have
to that extent a monopoly which was
created by nature and which cannot well
be wrested from us.
But customer that bids fair to be even
more valuable than European lovers of fine
bread is the countries over the sea in Asia.
The cons umptiOn of California -four in
Japan and China and the Straits Settle
ments is incT easing at remarkable rate.
Only those who have examined the figures
are aware of the growth of this traffic. 1t
looks as though rich Japanese and Chinese
had only just begun to realize that bread
made Of American-that is TO say, Caiifor-
nia-flour is far more palatable and whole
some than the breads they have been in the
habit of eating. Rice cakes and bread
made of poor flour miled in Asia, which
have constituted the staple food of Asiatics,
are making way in well-to-dO households
for white bread made from wheat grown in
our valleys. There are now three, and
there may possibly soon be four lines OF
steamers between this Coast and Japan and
China
The morning call., 1890-07-03
TRADE WITH VENEZUELA.

A member Of the editorial staff of the
New York Tribune has written from Vene-
Zuela that American merchants are in pos
session Of the bulk of the import and ex-
port trade of that country. Everywhere
else in the southern continent England,
France and Germany maintain the suprem-
acy the United States has acquired in Vene-
Zuela. For the last two years the aggregate
volume OF the United States trade is nearly
three times that of England or Germany,
and more than twice that of France. The
cause Of this exceptional condition of
things is not hard to find. Venezuela is the
only South American city with which the
United States has rapid and adequate
steam communication. Eleven years ago,
the Tribune editor writes, an American
house that had built up good business In
Venezuela perceived that to keep its trade
it must substitute fast steamers for sailing
vessels. The house has since established
branches in several of the principal cities
OF Venezuela, and, in spite Of the heavy
duty Venezuela imposes on imported bread
stuffs, the advantages OF its regular and
rapid communication have developed Amer
lean trade as reported. The line of steam-
ers which has accomplished so much has
never received aid from the United
States Government, though it is now COM
peting with nations which pay bounties
and subsidies. There is no apparent reason
why the experience Of this American firm
in Venezuela may not be repeated in other
South American countries. The fact, how
ever, that American lines are brought into
direct competition with foreign lines which
receive Government aid deters men OF cap
ital from making investments. Foreign
Governments have subsidized lines to break
up American commerce, aud in many cases
have succeeded. 1t is for Congress to de-
termine whether we shall subject our COM
merce to this discrimination or place Amer
lean lines on the same footing foreign lines
occupy.

WHAT TRUE SOLDIERS WANT.

Senator nawley says the true soldiers of
tie republic do net want TO have money
wasted They want to have their suffering
ccmra des aided, and they want the glory of
having fought for their country without re-
spect to money consideration. Senator
Hawley, himself volunteer, may criticize
pension legislation more freely than man
who failed TO respond 10 his country's call.
But it is not easy for rich man like Mr..
Hawley to put himself in a poor mans
place. A good many old soldiers, whose
necessities oblige them to accept pension
from the Government, would like as well as
Senator Hawley to do without other re-
ward than the glory of such service. But
among the vast number of volunteers a
goodly number have failed to make the
provisions for old age which prudent men
desire to make. Perhaps their service in
the army in measure incapacitated them
for the duties in the business world they
would have been fitted for had they re-
NAMED at home. Some stepped out of bust
ness circles and found it impossible to get
back when their military service was over
From one cause and another a good many
soldiers find years accommodating upon their
heads and very little in the way OF this
WV iN $500 ~ WI 'ii1iii ''i4A t"'A+ ft'
walton. Those who can trace their phys
ical inability to wounds received in battle
are already fairly well provided for. But
how about the other thousands who were
not wounded, and are now dependent upon
their own efforts for support? 1t is this
class of old soldiers the recent pension
laws are intended TO provide for. There
are good many old soldiers who do not
need pension. This constitutes no reason
why those who do should not have one. The
64,0O0,O coo Of people in this country may.
without hardship, contribute to the 100000
or 100000 who helped save the Union TWEEN
ty-fve years ago and are now in need of
aid. The glory of their sacrifice is not in
the least impaired by the fact that they
have not prospered in a worldly sense since
the war was ended.
