THE BALANCE-WHEEL.

A contemporary says that equal repre-
sentatiou Of States in the Senate is the
balance-wheel of our Federal system.
While equal representation of States
in the Senate is a wise constitutional
requirement it does not Of itself ena-
BILE a group Of small States to secure an
equal voice in the Federal Government
The balance-wheel Of the Federal system
lies in the willingness of the powerful
States to consider the claims of smaller
states on their merits. There was a mani
festation of this disposition in respect to
fbe Pacific Coast group when they asked
for a Chinese exclusion law. Representa-
tiyes from other States said that they did
not know anything about the Chinese ques-
tion. but we're willing to accept The almost
unanimous opinion Of the people OF the Pa
elf States as their guide in political action
Three times anti Chinese legislation has
been put through both Houses by the votes
of men who held that in matter 50 vital 10
the Pacific Coast its opinion should be given
the force of law. So long as this spirit pre-
walls the Union will continue whether the
equality of States in the S"nft' ee pre-
served or not.

EDITORIAL NOTES.

That the creation OF Department Of Agricul-
iure with member Of the Cabinet 10 look after
It's Interests has had beneficial effect on agri-
cultural enterprises Is clearly demonstrated by
recent events, including the reciprocity uegota-
tons in which efforts are being made 10 open
new markets for the products Of the farm. Not
only are new markets being secured abroad but
welLdirected efforts are also being made to utlt-
ize the home market TO better advantage. Secre-
lary kusk says on the subject: "When little
more than year ago | called attention to the
fact that American consumers paid annually
to foreign countries some S250.000,000 for
products which could be, ana ought 10 be, sup
piled by our own farmers, the statement was
greeted on all sides with expressions of doubt
and 10 some cases with derisIon, even though L
had taken pains TO accompany my statement
with enumeration OF the articles L referred to,
and with the figures showing the extent OF these
mportatiOns. In general way IL may be said
that with the exception OF tea coffee and spices,
almost all the agricultural products we import
could be supplied by American farmers"
Recent developments In the manufacture OF
aluminium have convinced a well-known metal
urgist that there Is no reason why ii should not
be used for coating black plates in lieu OF tin and
lead, especially as he says The material can be
produced bulk for bulk at lower cost than tin.
Aluminium IS now selling for 90 cents pound.
He predicts that IL VIII be made in the future at
20 cents. Tin costs about 20 cents pound, aud
aluminium at Its present price, taking into con-
sideraton the difference In the specific gravity
of the two metals should perform the same
amount Of work at a cost of a little over 10 cents.
Thus. If used for coating iron or steel, 1t is a
much cheaper material than tin. Its chief value
for coating purposes consists in the fact that It

compared with tin.

THE LONDON AGENCY.

The proposition advanced in the State
Board of Trade by General Chapman to
establish London agency for California
products, especially dried fruits, is an
three years ago broached for permanent
California exhibition in London, the
great gateway through which the COM
merce of the world rolls, or in which it is
represented. London is the population
center Of travel; it is the seat of finance;
it is the most cosmopolitan spot on earth;
it is point from which all the world can
be touched in trade. traffic and produc-
ton. Get footing in the London mar
relations with all peoples, and all con-
sumers, in the Eastern hemisphere. The
State Board of Trade likes the idea; its
Executive Committee is of the belief that
such an agency will be a powerful motor
for the Introduction to European tastes of
California products now unknown to the
Old World. and especially Of the fruit we
dry. To make the idea practical a corpo-
ration with $4,000 capital will be formed,
and several subscriptions have already
been written. 1t ought to go on to COM
pletion with rush. There is no reason
why the properly equipped man should
not be located and at the head of an open
commission agency for California dried
fruits in London before the spring
showers of 1892 cease.

A DOUBTFUL STORY FROM CHILE

A DOUBTFUL STORY FROM CHILE.
The news from Chile by way of Lon
don is that there is widespread discomfort
with the new administration, and open
threats against it because members of the
Junta have been selected to fill high con-
stitutional offices. This news should be
taken with many grains of allowance be-
cause of the medium through which it
reaches us.
Why should the people of Chile be dis
contented at the very outset with the result
of the nominations and elections, since
the men chosen are the very persons
who were selected to head and lead the
revolutionary movement that achieved
success and is now the government? Are
these people to be estimated as so foolish
as to think that it is the duty of success
ful leader to refuse to serve the country
at his country's demand?
Montt was chosen to be elected Presi-
dent unanimously, and his election was
without opposition. He is not yet in
stalled in office, and there is, therefore,
no act Of his that can be justly complained
Of. His craftsmanship is lofty, his ca
pacity for leadership has been proved,
his executive capacity repeatedly demon
strated
1t is impossible to realize that the Chile
ans prefer untried men at this crisis to
steer the ship of state, rather than pilots
of whose skill and patriotic purpose
there has been no question. We believe
that the dispatches via London are col
ored to suit English commercial ends,
and that they do not represent the actual
conditions in the South American re-
public.
In connection with this sensational
news comes dispatch announcing that
between the new Government and the
British Minister resident coolness pre-
walls, due to the bumptiousness of his
coachman at the ceremony of decorating
the graves of soldiers. The ministerial
carriage blocked the way unreasonably,
the people put it to one side, and the
coachman sought safety in flight. This
is but trifiing incident, but appears to
be considered of sufficient Importance to
be telegraphed.
In the dispatch from the New York
Herald correspondent it is charged that
several of the European correspondents
are bent upon doing all in their power to
create and maintain irritable conditions
between the United States and Chile.
These later dispatches are sidelights upon
the first referred to, and give cause for
holding in reserve any judgement adj
verse to the new Government, that the
news which is so open to suspicion of
over-color might otherwise justify.

Haines said there were 100000 freight
cars in the country, and 100000 were
equipped with automatic couplers. The
cost of equipping the other million would
be S25, ,000. Five years. time at least
would be required. The aggregate cost of
lifting up cars with air-brakes the
country over would be $4,000, 600. These
things, he said, must be considered.

money power has captured tiree-fourths
of the Louisiana press, controls large
part of the capital in the State, lays its
hand menacingly upon commerce, and
cows the fearful and timid. Until the
Postal Department put stop to it, the
lottery giants mail was one-third of all
carried into and out of New Orleans. The
temptation to continue in this power, and
enlarge it, led the lottery corporation to
violate its pledge and demand a still
more extended lease of life, regardless of
the wretchedness and woe Of which it is
the creator, hence the impending cam

fore the people by legislative act whether

to give the lottery ogre twenty-five years

THE outlook now is that San Francisco
will raise the necessary $4,000 as an
opening guarantee for inviting the Re-
publican National Convention of 1892 to
sit in California. The Finance Commit
tee is so well assured of this that 1t has
arranged TO send forward committee
two days hence to appear before the Ex-
ecutive Committee of the National Re-
publican organization. 1t is to be hoped
that success will crown this effort. All
California needs to stimulate desirable
immigration is to enlist intelligent men
whose present residences are widely dis
tributed to come and spy out the land
and carry back the story of our claims,
and of the basis upon which we make
them. California has nothing to conceal,
but everything to show to the stranger in
support of its plea for six or seven times
