LOOK OUT FOX COAL.

1t looks as though the coal-dealers were
making ready to give the public another
squeeze. For over year the price of coal
has been reasonable; that is to say, the
profit on Wellington coal has not been over
100 per cent, and the mine-owners have
managed to scrape along on this profit
But they have for some time been restless
at such reduced gains. TIE receipts OF
coal at this port since January 1st have
been only 48I, $50 tons, as against $4,000
during the same period of 1889, while the
consumption increases each year. At this
rate of decrease the fall months will find
san Francisco with reduced stock on
hand, and the situation will be favorable
for another turn OF the screw.
The premonitory sign of the turn is, as
usual, disagreement between the mine
owners and their hands. The last coal
famine was ushered mas the public will
remember-by fire followed by a strike in
the Dunsmuir mines on Vancouver island,
and when the fire had been put out and the
strike adjusted, another strike occurred in
New South Wales. at this moment
strike is in fun progress at the Wellington
mine-700 men are ont and a monthly out
put Of 25,000 tons is Slut off. In a few
luOHlLS bIllo lCduCLiUu VI supply must tel.
As the average earnings of the hands are
about 81 a day it is clear that there is a
motive for the strike which does not ap-
pear on the surface.
San Francisco, and, for that matter, all
the cities of the State, and all our manu-
featuring industries, are subject to the fat
of half dozen men who determine what
one Of the prime necesSaries of life-fuel-
shall cost. We are wholly dependent on
two British colonies for an article which is
nearly as essential as grain or meat and in
each of these colonies the market price Of
the article is regulated by a single in
dividual or at most three or four individuals.
When the last coal squeeze took place an
effort was made to relieve the Coast by i'm
porting coal from Wyoming. The coal was
excellent, ard its appearance in the market
blocked the game of those who were en-
gagged in the corner If the railroad COM
pany, which is the heaviest consumer of
coal on this Coast, should combine with
other large consumers, and organize
special train service for the transportation
of Wyoming or Colorado coal to the Cali
fornia seaboard, the State would in few
years be independent # British Columbia
and New South Wales, and the public
would not be compelled to pay for their
fuel twice as much as the same article costs
in the Eastern States. But we may not
awake to the necessity Of this course until
We have been squeezed once or twice more.

THE INVASION OF CANADA.

There is no proposition to invade Canada.
Such a military movement on the part of the
United States would be considered only as
a means of effective attack upon Great
Britain. But there is only the remotest
possible chance that the United States will
attack Great Britain. A London cablegram
reports Lieutenant-General Henry Brack-
eubury Of the British army as saying that
in the possible event Of war the invasion of
Canada would be no holiday campaign. He
arrives at this conclusion by reviewing the
war between the Union and the Confeder-
scy. " 1t took tie Northern States" Gen
eral BTackenbury says, wears TO conquer
the Southern States, and that with every
advantage in the way OF climate and knOwl-
edge Of the country invaded, as wei! as the
great and unusual advantage Of the pres
ence Of several millions of a slave popula-
ton in sympathy with the invaders and
from whom many valuable recruits were
obtained for the Northern army. The
United States would find the invasion and
conquest Of Canada even more formid-
able" There are one or two facts Of some
importance which General Brackenb1ry
does not seem to have thought worth men,
toning One is that in the war for the
union the United States was divided two
thirds, or lheTeabout, we're trying 10 take
military possession Of the territory oecu-
pied by the other third. The slave popA-
lation was in political sympathy with the
North, but their devotion to their masters
was as steady as the devotion of their mas
tiers TO the cause they had espoused This
slave population fed the armies and the
white women and children of the South
during the four years of the war. In the
improbable event Of the invasion of Can
ada North and South, East and West would
fight under one flag. AS in the late war the
conviction became general that slavery. as
the cause of the South, Must be abolished.
SO would the conviction grow that future
trouble should be avoided by moving the
American northern frontier up as close to
the North Pole as stakes could be driven.
The cablegram to which we have referred
ssJ there is good deal of popular feeling
in England arising from the proposed re-
vision of the tariff. English manufacturers
have notion that because they admit
American grain free of duty the United
States should at least give them a living
chance in cur markets. This feeling is per-

THE PROPOSED COAST RAILROAD.

The papers along the line of the pro-
posed Coast Railroad do not express much
confidence in any intention of the Southern
Pacific Railroad Company to build the road
while present conditions prevail. MIR. Hunt
ington is reported as saving that the sub
sidy of S315, 900 offered is not much of an
inducement. With the Pacific Company
the first cost of the road has little to do
with the enterprise. Bonds, if guaranteed,
may be sold to the amount OF $40, 900, 900 as
easily as to S., 00O,0 00 The real question
is will the road pay? The company does
not propose to guarantee bonds unless there
is reasonable prospect that the road when
completed would meet operating expenses
and the interest on the bonds. At the first
glance one would say that road through
such fertile country would certainly pay.
SO it would if this fertile country was fairly
well peopled. The company would probably
take the chances if the land was open to
settlement on easy terms. But much of the
land on the route is held in large tracts
which, however fertile, will not contribute
to the support of a railroad while held by
spectators. What the railroad wants is
people If the big ranches we're divided
into small farms. with the prospect of
family for each fifty or one hundred acres,
there would be little trouble about finding
all the capital the enterprise may require.

A PIECE OF VANDALISM.

One of the leading lumber dealers of
Michigan is here buying timber limits. He
makes no secret of the fact that he repre-
sents a syndicate which proposes to cut
down the forests on this Coast Have the
farmers of the Slope no right to be heard
on this question? If the forests which
clothe the sides of the Sierra and the noun
tain ranges farther east are wiped out
Of existence, the water sources which they
shelter will dry up, and the plains lying
along the foothills will become arid land.
VIII it compensate the State for the crea-
ton of this desert to have sold few hun
bred thousand dollars worth of lumber?
The State Government ought to have
something to say in the matter 1t is ut
terry unreasonable to expect Calfornians
to submit to the stripping of their hillsides
of timber, which can never be replaced
simply in order to supply the markets with
lumber. Our Eastern visitor who talks so
glibly about cutting down forests knows
that he would not be allowed to do so in
France or Germany or Spain. Why should
he reckon on enjoying more license in Cali
fOrnia?

nor has any one neared him since. He was

sense. believe, but have seen letters of
his fifteen or twenty lines long, with the
whole pith of a policy in each, together
with full suggestions for its complete de-
velopment. l speak without exaggeration,
but not without return of the wonder (be-
ing in the same line of business MYSELF
with which l viewed those amazing little
papers OF instruction. Now the clearness
of view, the firm, bouncing grasp, above all,
the prompt discernment of essentials, which
these briefs betrayed are among the most
useful Of all editorial qualities. Bat there
are others much more rare and not so easily
accou nted for. just as there are men who
are able to tell before they lift their heads
from their pillows of morning which way
the wind is blowing, so there are few, APP

ravening study of private letters and public
journals, feel in themselves every change

that is probably the account of it which
they would render, with the addition that
though for a while they hesitated to rely
upon their own barometrical indications,
experience soon gave them confidence
that was rarely disturbed by mistake. To
the statesman this is an invaluable quality.
Without it his wisdom is sorely crippled :;
indeed it is doubtful whether any Minister

FEDERAL JUDGES IN POLITICS.

The opponents of the Federal election
law argue that if Federal Judges are given
the appointment of supervisors of election
they will be contaminated by the touch of
politics. The apprehension is expressed
that in a short time the judiciary will lose
the dignity and self-respect which are
essential to its usefulness. We would like
to be assured that the judiciary will never
lose dignity and self-respect by any other
means than by naming three supervisors
in each Congressional district To see that
the votes for Congressman are freely cast
and correctly counted. The detail work OF
supervision will be done by a board of
three canYassers, of whom not more than
two shall be of one party. The super
visors whom the Federal Judges appoint
go over the returns, and in cases of dispute
determine the facts. The report of the mi
nority of the Board Of Canvassers will be
before them, as well as the report of the
majority The Federal Judge my be
Republican or Democrat. AS matter of
fact some of them are believed to be mug
wumps, But the color of their politics does
not matter if they are otherwise fit to hold
judicial positions, If there are any num-
Der of Judges who would assist to make
a false return of Congressman, the fact
would indicate a serious loss Of the dignity
and self-respect which are essential to their

FREE SHIFTS FOR TIE FOREIGN

Senator Vest offered an amendment to
the Tonnage Subsidy Bill providing for
free ships for foreign trade. Mr.. Vest ap-
parently wants an American marine COM
posed Of fOreign-built vessels He wants
to provide work for foreign ship-yards at
the expense Of our own. In his speech in
support of his amendment he asked how it
was that soon after the war CT independ-
ence the United States came near wrestling
from Great Britain the ocean carrying
trade? Mr. Vest could doubtless answer
that question himself if lie desired to do so.
The vessels which the United States built
in the early part OF its history were CON-
posed Of wood. of which we possessed an
inexhaustible store of raw material. La
Dor at that time was cheap. We had no
manufactures to draw laborers from the
fields or to create markets for the products
of the fields. With a certain advantage
over England in the way of raw material
for ships and with equal advantage in the
way Of low-prieed labor, we succeeded in
getting large proportion of the ocean car
Tying trade. But we lost most of it during

labor in the United States and the stores of
raw material for modern ships were the two
principal causes why we lost our hold on
the ocean carrying trade. Having more
profitable work to do on land we made no
effort to compete with cheap-labor coun-
tries on the sea- The navigation laws which
protected our coastwise trade from this
ruinous competition have been frequently
denounced by free-traders, but Mr.. Vest in
his amendment did not propose:to admit
foreign vessels to the home trade. His
school of politicians is learning, but is yet
far from the true American standard.

EDITORIAL NOTES.

Another noted French prison, Saint-La-
zare, is to make way for the march of pro-
gress. In the year 1100 this historic site
was occupied by hospital for lepers. After
a couple of centuries it made way for a
noted abbey. which, during the period of
the revolution, was converted into prison,
and many celebrated persons were confined
within its walls. During the reign of the
Consulate the prison was set apart for the
reception of women, and its condition be-
came such a terrible one in the course of
time Macmillan de Camp declared that
the "prson, from which vice emerges in
greater multitude than it even enters its
gates, is a disgrace to fair Paris" Nothing
win be left of the old prison save tower
which is exclusively reserved for hardened
criminals. An entirely new building will
be set apart for those held for preliminary
hearings and serving light sentences, and
second new building will provide accommo-
dation for hardened offenders under SEN
teBce.
A measure that excites considerable at
tention all over the country is the bill of
Congressman Henderson of Iowa, under
consideration by the House Railroad Com
mittee. 1t is designed to make it unlawful
for railroad companies to put into use any
new cars, or cars that have been sent to the
shops for general repairs, that are not
equipped with safety automatic couplers.
1t provides that after January, 1895, every
freight-car in the country engaged in inter-
state business must be so equipped. After
January, 1892 every locomotive must have
power brake, and after January, 1898, no
railroad shall run a train that has not
enough cars in 1t equipped with some kind
of power or automatic brake that the en-
gineer can control the train wit bout requir-
ing the assistance Of the brakemen.
The death of Gen eral John c. Fremont
adds another name to the list of noted men,
conspicuous IN both peace and war, who
lave in recent years gone to that bourne
from whence no traveller returns. The Gen.
erals services as the pathfinder" need
not be recounted; they are familiar to all
old residents of this Coast. He claimed
the proud distinction of being chosen Sena-
tor 10 represent the new State of California
on her admission to the Union, and the
first National Republican Convention nomi-
mated him as its candidate for President of
the United States. California Will long
gratefully remember him for the part which
he took in making her a member of the
Union.
The Improvement of the defenses of the
Golden Gate would be hailed as a welcome
change for the better. The location of 16-
inch riiied guns, 10 tons in weight, in tur-
rets, as contemplated, would command
a feeling OF respect not entertained by
foreign man-of-warsmen when passing the
old-fashioned Notifications and smooth
bores now in position.
