A SENATOR ELECTED.

The inside view" of the Senatorial con-
test which THE CALL gave few days ago
proves to have been correct Charles n.
FELTON, was the choice Of Mr.. Stanford for
Senator. ard Mt Stanford has sufficient in
fueuce to elect his choice The little by
play which seemed to indicate that Mr.
FELTON, was independent Of railroad infu-
euce amused a good many people, but
deceived a much smaller number. 1t was,
however, a foregone conclusion tha; rail
road candidate would be elected. Mr., Eel
ton has served two terms in Congress. In
accepting seat in the Senate at the hands
Of MI Stanford he has simply recognized
the fact that at the present time no man
could be elected whom DIR. Stanford op-
posed. AnunpIeasant feature Of this result
Is the dominance which it gives to the Grim
Minis faction of the Republican party. The
transfer of the twenty-four votes that were
originally cast for De Young was made at
the dictation Of Crimmins. We will not at
this time consider the probabilities that the
transfer was made for a consideration.
That is a matter upon which the public will
form its own conclusion. 1t may be said,
however that the intimation that the Grim
minis crowd was so incensed at the report
that Estee was using money that they made
a disinterested stampede for FELTON, is not
received with much favor.

THE BEST OF THE BARGAIN.

When intelligence first came tina Brazil
had made the changes in her tariff which
were required as a condition for free mar
ket in this country for certain Brazilian
produrt3 the free-trade opponents Of the
Administration said that the English inter-
ests in Brazil would not allow the decree to
stand. English influence is known to be
powerful in Brazil, and it was held that any
attempt on the part of the American Gov
ernment to promote the interests of this
country at the expense of English trade
would prove abOrtiYe. But since the Bra
lillian decree has been ratified American
free-traders stOntly assert that it does not
give the United States any particular ad-
vantage. Mr.. Blaine, they say, hnS been
Outwitted. One Of these American free
traders fortiies the assertion that Mr..
Blaine has been Ontwitted by the following:
uisa fact that this country has offered free
market Of 50, 900 900 people TO the raw material
produced by less than 10, 100000 people, and It
Will have great cause for congratulation If for
several years tc come it receives any hing at all
In return.
The raw material which the United States
admits free is coffee, sugar and hides. COf-
fee and hides have been admitted free for
years. Sugar was made free by the last
Congress. The arrangement Mr. Blaine
has made with Brazil does not admit
single product free which would not have
been free under the new tariff if there had
been no reciprocity clause attached to the
Mckinley bill. The American free-trader
above quoted says that the manufactured
goods which Brazil mostly imports cost
about fifteen per cent more in the United
States than in England. This fifteen per
cent covers the difference between the tariff
on English and on American goods. Ac-
cording TO this American free-trader condi-
tons are thus made even which were for
merly fifteen per cent in favor of the
English manufacturer. Mr.. Blaine does
not seem TO have been badly outwitted after

THE NEGRO PROBLEM.

A correspondent of the London Times has
been taking notes concerning the condition
Of things in certain of the Southern States,
and has arrived at the conclusion that "if
the social crimes and outrages in the South
ern States we're taking place in a semi-ciyil-
lied part of Europe, and were only half as
well advertised as the events in Bulgaria
were, the public sentiment of Europe would
at once irsist upon, anu would within six
months secure reform even at the cost Of
war" 1t is pleasant 10 be assured that
public sentiment in Europe is so just and
so keen. Description of life in London
warrants the belief that about one-tenih of
its people are enduring about as much
misery as human nature can survive. Cen
eral Booths picture of 'Iu Darkest En-
gland shows several hundred thousand
people who have never sat at a good meal
or rested in good bed. Life with them is
a daily fight for enough to eat to keep soul
and body from parting company In Russia
the Jews have some cause of complaint.
For no crime except that of birth they have
been driven from their native land to find
an abiding place where they can. In other
parts of Europe observant travellers de-
scribe the condition of a large proportion of
the people as so deplOrable that both men
and women are losing their human aspect
The American negro in the South has un-
questonably been deprived of some Of his
political rights The Federal ConstitutiO n
makes him voter, but he has not always
been allowed to vote 1t makes him eligible
to Office but he has not often been per-
mitted to hold office. 1t gives him the right
to go to any public place where a white man
may go, but he las been convinced that it
is not we'll to claim this privilege But the
industrial progress Of the South indicates
healthful condition of the working classes.
The colcred race, naturally improvident, is
laying by money. The property of the
white residents of the States is taxed to sup
port colored publiesschoos. As rule the
laborer receives what he earns. The whites
know that the South cannot prosper with
out degree of harmony between employers
and employees. The colored race has not
the appearance of being on the ragged edge
of star yation week in and week out Their
physical condition is pleasing contrast to
that of the working classes in European
.nt,,tria.

AN HISTORIC SPEECH.

The present Legislature Of California
brings to mind the famous speech which
Oliver Cromwell is reported to have
made when he turned Parliament out Of
doors in the year 1868, and there is strong
evidence that it is authentic. And here is
what Cromwell said when he turned the
mercenary wretches out:
II Is high time for me to put an end 10 your sit
ting IN Ibis place, which ye have dishonored BY
your contempt Of all virtue. and defed by your
practice OF Every vice. Ye are factious crew,
and enemies TO all good government. Ye are
pack OF meTcenaTy WreIches, and wOuld--like
Esan-sell your country for mess OF cottage;
and-like Judas-betray your God for a few
pieces Of money. Is there single Virtue now re-
naming among you? Is there one OF vice ye do
not possess? Ye have no more religion than my
horse. Gold is your God. Which of you have
not bartered awsy your cousciences for brlbes
IS there a man among you that hath the least
care for the good of the commonwealth Ye sor-
did men have ye not defiled this sacred place
and turned the LORDS temple into den OF
thieves? BY your Immoral principles and wicked
practices ye are grown intoleraDly odIOus 10 the
whole nation. You, who were deputed here by
the people TO get their grievances redre ssed. are
yourselves become their grievance. Your coun-
try, therefore, calls upon me 10 cleanse this
Augean stable by pnliiBs final period to your
inlquiiO Ous proceedings IN this house, and which,
by Gods help. a1d tile strength he hath given
Inc, 1 am now come 10 do. l command you,
therefore, upon peril of your lives, 10 depart i'm

STREET MATTERS.
Squatter Connolly Ordered Sum.
marily Elected.

John Norton, who has the contract for
removing garbage from public buildings and
debris from public squares. was censured by
the Street Committee yesterday for not full
filling his contract. He will be given an
other chance, and if he does no. improve
the contract will be rescinded.
The petition Of prOperty-owners for the
extension Of Potrero avenue from Twenty
fifth street south to San Bruno road will be
recommended favorably. The committee
will also report favOrably on the resolution
Of in tenton to do the work.
Owen Connolly, who squatted on a portion
of Jessie street, near Tenth. and was de-
clared in Illegal possession by the courts
after severe scoring by the Judge, had the
impudence to ask the committee to postpone
the boards order to eject him.
Burling said he was opposed to it. The
Superintendent of Streets had neglected to
carry out the order because a sick woman
occupied the shanty. He considered that
only a ruse, and upon his motion the Super
intendent was ordered to clear the premises
at once.
The matter of examining the sewers of
the city was referred To the Chairman,
Taber, and Superintendent Gilleran. Mr..
Gilleran was anxious to have competent
the exact condition Of all the sewers in the
city might be ascertained. Such course may
yet be decided upon IL II Is deemed wise by
the two who have it in charge.
The proposition of the Southern Califor-
MIA Btumuous Paving Company to pave
some street in the city for a distance of two
blocks at so cents a square foot as a test
will be recommended. The locality Will
probably be Front street, between Clay and
California, where the heavy traffic is,

JUDICIAL CONTRASTS.

The public will remember that an In
junction was obtained from Judge hunts
court while the last Board of Supervisors
were engaged in their efforts to bestow the
city printing upon journal which had
charged unauthorized rates for advertising
city work. In fact the rates eXacted
amounted to absolute frauds in many in
stances. The public were in hopes, by ap-
plying to Judge Hunt, that the solid nine
could be stayed in its corrupt work until
a new Board of Supervisors should take
their seats, which was only for few days.
But no; no delay was obtained. THE
CALL had supposed in matter where so
much was at stake that delay in the in
terest of the people would come OF course,
but no. The solid nine were permitted to
carry out their nefarious designs, and the
Report went on collecting excessive de-
mands The new Board of Supervisors
were, however, installed into office, and
they revoked the pretended contract with
the Rep0rt What next? An injunction
was granted to the proprietors of the Re
port against the Supervisors from Judge
Hoge's court. In this case there appeared
to be no haste, but the Report continued
its exactiOns. What will come out of this
illegal city printing business in the future
the public will have to wait and see; but
when the city suffers there seems to be no
haste with one court. while with another,
which went against the city's Interest,
haste was quite manifest.

MAKING THE NAVY POPULAR.

An Eastern journal says that the squadron
of evolution is making the navy popular i'll
southern ports. The five cruisers which
compose this squadron have been engaged
in this service ever since they were put in
commission. How much longer they will
continue in the show business is not known.
Meantime there Is no new vessel in the
China Squadron and but one in the North
Pacific There is a civil war raging in
Chile, with no American vessel in sight.
There was time in tile history of this
country when the navy made itself popular
by good work. Exchanging compliments
with friendly powers may make the navy
popular with those powers, but the people
who have to foot the bills are not likely TO
become enthusiastic over such service.

flaw in the scheme was that the whites of
the cotton States could not afford to dis

move the negro from South Carolina,
Georgia and Alabama would be to impov-

There is nothing in the rumors that ow-

tain Douglass Police Sergeant Whitman
had been removed from his district, which
includes Morton and other streets. Captain
Douglass made his usual inspection of the
district and closely questioned the women
residing there as to whether any of them
had been blackmailed by police officers, but
the result was most complimentary to Ser
geant Whitman. He was not removed and
is on duty as usual. Sergeant Birdsall. who
was also on duty in the district, has been
changed to the cemetery beat.
