Lake Rates Falling.

CHICAGO, Oct. 5.-The freight rate by
lake on corn to Buffalo dropped to one
and three-quarters cent to-day. This is
a reduction of half a cent since Satur-
day, and the present rate is half what
it was when S. V. White & Co. we're
running their September corn deal and
pushing shipments. Unless shipments
increase very much vessel men expect
the rate to drop to one cent.

LOW DOWN JOURNALISM.

The Los Angeles Herald is full of bit
terness and reproach. In it's issue of Au-
gust Slst it quotes in full what editorially
it styles san elaborate report" of the pro-
ceedings before the State Board of Equal
ization, as published in the RECORD
UNION of last Friday. Yet with this ver-
batim appropriation and quasi approval
it caters to supposed local prejudices by
saying: 1.-THE RECoRD-UNIoN of last Fri
day gives northern citrus belt report of
the inquisition Of the State Board of
Equalization, which we reproduce with
some Of its smartness eviscerated."
The alleged disemboweling of the re-
port is unadulterated falsity. The report
is printed by the Herald as we gave it.
1t was an accurate, truthful pen-picture
of what took place before the board. The
RECORD UNIONS reports of the proceed
ings before that body have all been pre-
else and a vivid reflection of actual oc-
currences. This has been conceded on
all Sides
Our purpose in all reports is to give the
news, to pen-photograph, so far as the
exigencies of space will permit, the hap
penings of the time worthy of record.
When the Herald charges the RECORD
UNIONS report with bias, it convicts it
self OF falsehood, and the meanest order
Of untruth, that which assails motive 1t
does moro than that-it prints the REC
ORD UNIONS report with the intimation
that it has cut out portions of it that were
grossly unjust.
If this is the standard of fair play and
dealing the Herald sets up, journalism
in its bailiwick is at a low ebb, assuming
the Herald to be representative.

THE DRIVER HAD THE TIME

The driver Of Madison avenue car
yesterday had been indulging in that
trick well-knOwn to railroad men as
loafing, that is, stealing headway from
his follower on the line in order to corral
more passengers and thus be enabled to
turn IN more money to the company,
says the New York Recorder. Tie
horses weren't urged bit, and finally a
passenger, who was evidently an officer
OF the road, became aware of the scheme
he made voyage 80 the front platform,

"Oi guess not" came from the brake

"Well, say you are, and you'd better
stop loating. Do you know that's rule
on this road for every conductor and
driver TO keep on timer"
"Oi do, be huyins!."
DO you know that it's also a rule for
every conductor and driver to carry a
watch?''
"Oi do"
where's your watch? Let's see how
your and mine agree"
The gentleman produced magnificent
gold timepiece. The driver unbuttoned
his coat, reached around himself, buried
himself nearly up to his shoulders in a
rear pocket and produced a small alarm
clock about the size OF pork pie
"Oi haven't as good a Job as you have
or O'd buy repater," said he, "d'ye

CHILE.

The report that Balmaceda had been
killed by a jackass driver turns out to
have been false news. The ex-President
and Dictator is now said to be safe beyond
the crests Of the Andes. But one of his
fleeing agents has been captured loaded
down with money, and the fugitive will
arrive abroad 81 100000 out of iIl-gotten
gain.
An effort is being made to kindle sym
pathy for Minister Egan because he in
duced Balmaceda, after the Iatters de-
feat, to resign usurped power, and place
the administration of affairs in the hands,
Professionally, of General Baquedano.
But admitting this service TO full credit,
Mr.. Egan has not deemed it Of sufficient
moment to notify his own Government
that the Balmaceda administration has
resigned and fed. Had he reported that
fact on Saturday night, as he might have
done, the United States would to-day be
in position to recognize the de facto pro-
Ylslonal Government. Its inability to do
so is chargeable to the neglect-to put it no
stronger-ot Minister Egan, and as re-
suit of our delay very bitter feeling is
growing in Chile against Americans.
Some of the greater atrocities of Bal
maceda are now coming to light; as the
execution of forty youths in group; the
persecution of women; the confiscation
of property because the owners did not
agree with the Balmacedan policy, etc.
But it is fruitless to recount these tales
now. The time when civilized Govern
ments might have intervened for human
ity's sake and have compelled Balmaceda
10 conform TO humane methods and
proper conduct of war, has gone, and any
examinations INDUCED in now will serve
no good purpose.

THE free coinage men are playing a
desperate game. They now assert, with q
boldness that is assumed that the Presi-
dent will approve a free coinage silver
bill if passed. What warrant there is for
this declaration it is not possible to dis
cover, but its purpose is obvious. 1t is
intended to break in few men who oc-
cupy fence positions and care most to
be upon the winning side. The state
ment thus INDUCED in, and which is
much circulated in Washington, is not
justified by any utterance Of President
Harrison that has been given to print. 1t
is not unlikely that he would be pleased
to reach ground of compromise, but
that he will demonetize gold and degrade
the currency to deprecated silver
standard, we do not believe, nor have we
seen printed word of his that indicates
in the slightest degree any such intention
on the part of the chief magistrate.
