IRON AND STEEL.

A bulletin from the Superintendent of
Census reports that the total production of
pig-iron, including Bessemer, in the United
States, Tor the year ending June 80, 1890,
was 9.579, 10 tons of 1000 pounds each. This
is nearly three times the production of 1880.
and nearly five times the production of 1870.
1t is only exceeded by that of Great Britain,
and if the production of this country con-
tinues TO increase at its present ratio, we
shall surpass Great Britain in 1S90-9l.
Twenty years ago, Great Britain made
ne-half the pig iron produced in the world.
Her product has increased since then, but
relatively it has fallen back; our product
has increased nearly 800 per cent, and that
of Germany about $50 per cent Meanwhile
our consumption has increased even more
rapidly than our production. The United
States now consume one-fourth of all the
pig iron consumed in the world, and one
third of all the steel. In the year 1SS9-90,
besides our domestic production. we i'm
ported S41, 673, 241 of iron and steel in all
forms-a trifing falling off from the impor-
tation of 1SSS-S9.
1t is not agreeable to realize that in this
vast movement of industry the Pacific Slope
has no share. We are dependent on the
East and the foreign world for our supplies
of what may be considered thu first reqnis-
lite of civilized life. Nor is there much
prospect of change in this. There is,
however, probability that the vast depos-
its of iron ore in Siskiyou and Shasta coun-
ties may be found to contain streaks of
high grade, which may possess commercial
value, but it is as yet only possibility.
One consolation is derived from the ret1ec-
ton that mining was an old industry in
Pennsylvania when the lower Silurian
brown hematite ores, which have been the
chief source of the prosperity Of the State,
were discovered.
Our foundrieS and iron works in this city
now depend on scrap iron for their raw
material At the rate we are consuming
iron, this source Of supply will soon be ex-
hausted. When it is, we shall have to look
to countries across the sea for the metal.
Iron will not bear much railroad transpor-
tatioD. For the construction Of vessels Tor
the national navy, steel plates may be
brought here from Pennsylvania or Ohio,
because cost cuts small figure in such en-
terprises. But the original cost of iron and
steel at Pittsburg does not much exceed the
cost of its transportation by rail to this
Coast, and thus, in manufactures OF iron, III
which we have to compete with the East,
we are handicapped by the cost of the raw
material. There is an abundance OF mag
netic iron in ten of the provinces OF Japan; ;
possibly, at some future day, that iron may
enter into consumption on this Coast.
Utah is full OF iron, and it has been carried
by rail from the mines near Salt Lake to
the smelters at Denver; If an iron famine
broke out here, the railroads might make
rate that would admit of its transportation
tO~thp Coast.

"BUCKLEY FOR GOVERNOR"

Under the editorial caption of Buckley
for Governor" the Record Union says:
Mr.. Buckley is the head and front of the
Democratic party. He has placed Mr..
Pond in command of the Democratic party,
Mr.. Pend is therefore sailing under Mr..
Buckley's colors, and they are the black
colors of political piracy" The truth of
these sententious sentences cannot be de-
MED. Mr.. Pond is doing for the State this
year what he did for the city last year-he
is lending his popularity and whatever good
name lie may possess to pull the Buckley
ticket through. The moral status of the
man is determined by this fact He has
full acquaintance with Buckley's political
character and knows whether or not he APP
proves of Buckeyes methods. If be does he
is not in any way a more desirable candi-
date for Governor than Buckley himself
would be. II he does not he is contributing
to the degree that is in his power to con-
tinue the government of the State in the
hands Of a man whose past acts he con-
demns. Republican papers will take Mr..
Pond at his own estimate of himself That
estimation was declared when he went be-
fore the San Jose Convention asking for
the nomination for Governor knowing that
he could only obtain it by Buckley's CO.
operation. He thus formed a political ALI
anee Of which he well knew Buckley would
be the controlling partner.

COMPULSORY EDUCATION.

The Republican State Convention of Wis
consin has embodied its views on the sub
ject Of education in few terse, clear SEN
fences in its platform They are worth the
consideration of citizens of other States.
The convention declared its devotion to
the common school as the chief factor in
the education of the people" 1t approved
of private and paroclial schools, supported
without aid from public funds, as valuable
auxiliaries to the common schools; and it
dsclaimed any hostility to the action of
parents who prefer to have their children
educated at such institutions Rnt If held
that private schools could not supersede
public schools, and that it was vital at all

"CALlFORNIA ON WHEELS"
An Exhibition Visited by Nearly a MillioI
Of People.

An Exhibition Visited by Nearly Million
Of People.
The State Board of Trade has issued
pamphlet containing statistics in reference
to the journey of California on Wheels"
From this tabulated statement it is seen
that the travelling exhibit made its first
stop, after leaving San Francisco, at San
Jose, on Tuesday, December 3, 1889. Since
then it has travelled SS12 miles and has been
visited by S36,450 people. By the time it
goes over the rest of the projected route
and reaches San Francisco again. it will
have travelled 1854 miles and been visited
by over 100000 people.
The city that seemed to best appreciate
the exhibition was st. Louis, Mo-, where
the Gals stad eight days and were visited
by 46, 1000 people. Denver comes next with
80, 500 in seven days, and New Orleans third
with 2S,500 people in four and half
days. Curious to say Chicago only fur
nished II, 400 visitors, although the exhibit
ton remained there for seventeen days.
The travelling show is now at Pittsburg,
Pa. From there it goes to New York, stop
ping at intervening towns. From New
York it works its way to Buffalo, thence
through Canada and Michigan to Chicago.
From Chicago it thunders west to Portland,
Oregon, and from there comes rolling home
to San Francisco.

MICROSCOPICAL SOCIETY.
Delegates Chosen to the Worlds Fai
Convention.

Delegates Chosen to the Worlds Fair
Convention.
The semi-monthly meeting of the San
Francisco Microscopical Society was held
last evening at tie rooms of the society on
Suffer street, E. j. Wickson in the chair.
The Committee on Location reported that
they had examined the rooms offered by
the Academy of Sciences and did not deem
them suitable quarters for the society. By
vote il was decided not to accept them.
J. G. Clark was elected Viee-President of
the society to fill a vacancy caused by the
resignation of DR.. Bates.
On motion of G. Mason Kline, it was
decided to change the time of meeting from
the second and third Wednesday Of each
month to the first and fourth.
C. Mason Kinne and William E. 10y
were appointed delegates to represent the
society at the Worlds Fair Convention to
be held in the city September 18th.
E. NJ. Hill exhibited a specimen of crystal
Iized gold taken from the Gold Crystal mine
in Colorado, in 1887. The weight of this
exhibit is 92.7 troy ounces, and its intrinsic
value about fifteen hundred dollars. j. o.
Whitney also exhibited some gold speci-
mems.

recommended its amendment so as to per-
nit the parent or guardian TO choose 1.-THE
time of year or place, whether public or
private, or wherever located, in which the
children shall receive instruction" This
amendment removes the objection which
may be raised to the compulsory law, on the
ground that some of the common schools
were inconveniently situated for scholars.
1t is not likely that Wisconsin will re-
trace her steps on the subject OF COM
pusory education. On the contrary, the
chances are that other States will follow
her example. The impression is becoming
general that the State owes it to itself to
prevent the existence of ignorance, which is
too often the mother of poverty and crime. 1t
is not as a measure of benevolence that COM
mon schools are established. Its a measure
of precaution; and it would seem to follow
that no citizen should be suffered TO defeat
that precaution by refusing to avail him.

A STRANGE SITUATION.

Is it not surprising that single intelli-
gent person can be found in California who
will assist in electing to office Buckley's
candidates? Nearly every one knows that
with his lambs controlling the ballot-boXes
we have no guarantee that an honest count
will be had or that stuffing will not take
place. Persons abroad cannot realize that
the inhabitats of a great American city will
permit a man like Buckley to plumber them
by placing his minions in tffice. We are
called an intelligent people, but has there
ever been such a condition of affairs as are
now witnessed here in any other city in the
American Union?

"What's the matter with the PalmasY'
They're all right"
This was the cry of the jubilant club
men last night at the close OF the bowling
game. The team was, indeed, all right.
1t was the final home game OF the associa-
ton championship series, and the team
decided to make a grand wind up.
They did it. They rolled up points in
rapid order and at the close had the hand
some total Of l, 745. This total has been
only beaten once in the series this season
and then by only four pins.
bowling, indeed.
Had Leuly been in form and reached
his usual average they would have MADE
an eighteen hundred game, but Leuiy
was not in shape. 1t was his off night.
Ee was SO pins behind the next best man,
Rich, who put up the nice total OIL l6l.
1t was awful lonesome for Jacob. but IL
is a rare experience for him.
How the boys will jump In the average
column. Two il the second hundred, one
in the ninety station, one in the eighties,
one in the seventies and -four IN the SIX
ties is a remarkable record. Nine men
beating the average by ten or more is
rarely witnessed in a game with a team
of ten. -
The visiting team was from the Staten
Island Athletic Club. They bowled well,
but the team has been rolling In poor
luck this season, and when they strike a
good game their opponents are found TO
excel them. They rolled up I,636, a score
that mas been beaten but five times prior
to last night in the championship series.
Two of the Islanders went up to the ninety
block, one in the eighties n two in the
seventies and two were well up in the
tifties. Three of the team fell below the
average.
The Palmas jumped into the lead with
the first frame where they held the Is
landers by eight. They kept moving
away and in the fifth frame had the lead

whispered Hathaway, and the warning
was needed. They fell off just a trife in
the last half but held their rivals well
as they closed the game with a lead OF
100 pins.
The victory has revived hope and the
Palma boys are confident that they have
lost their last game this season and ex-
pect, despite the hard road they nave to
travel, that they will be first home at the
end of the season.

IN THE LEAD AGAIN.
The Centurys Bowled Down by the Inde-

The Centurys Bowled Down by the Inde-
~pendents.
The lead in the Jersey City Amateur
Bowling League is again held by the In
dependents. Their victims last night was
the Century team. OF course it was
rolled on the winning clubs alleys as the
Centurys have successfully repulsed
every stack made when In their W
fortress. So have the Independents and
FairmountS.
The game was one Of the pest that has
been bowied ii the League race The
GreenviIlians sent their score up to 1,57S,
an average of 157 and alarge fraction, lisa
total that the crack teams would be con-
tent with. 1t is a winning score four
times out of five when the strongest
semi-professional teams are engaged, and
shows the benefit of the League cOmpeti-
tions in improving team work.
E. Bischof, of the independents, moved
through his ten frames without a break
and quit with POS to his credit. Three OF
the team reached the seventies and one
the sixty station. Four of the team fell
short of the average.
The Centurys had a fourteen hundred
game. Two of the brightest stars
twinkled dimly-Bowley and Hanley.
They just went over the 100 line and sur
prised themselves n their club mates.
Mills and Beiderhase, two steady bowl
ers, failed to get the range Of the alleys,
and they had q tug of war with their
average and won. Captain Lond, Ed Del
Orme and Fish liked the alleys and were
out for the game. Keegan, Hulse and
George Del Orme finished close to the
average.
The Independents began in a way that
indicated they wanted the victory. They
snatched the lead and kept up a stiff
game. At the fifth frame they had set
the pace for O II hundred run.
At the half they held the Centurys by liz
pins. The Independents did not do as well
the Journey by fifty better than the Court
House boys, and won with a margin OF
160.
