A Vessel steams Into Iquique With Plenty
of Arms and PowIer.

Vessel steams Into Iquique With Plenty
of Arms and Powder
The enthusiasm at lquique, tue headquarters
Of the Gillian insurgents. over the arrival Of
the Maipo with arms on board appears to have
been indescribable. The AdciOnal of that place
in an editorial says that SO far, for want Of
arms, the congress party were undecided and
were obliged TO act purely on the defensive
Now the robust arm of every citizen would lie
able to WELD a weapon in the cause against the
dictatorship.
The Maipo had hard time OF il during her
voyage. In frightful storm she lost her rud-
der. Tremendous seas broke over her and il
was feared at one time thet she would lie
wrecked. The splendid seananship OF Com
mander Gomez, however, pulled her through.
and as the vessel neared Iquiqne tae Impatiencs
of those on board knew no bounds. The excite
ment On shore was no less great. Thousands
were gathered on the beach TO welcome the on
GERS and crew, frantically waving their hate and
making every possible demonstration of their
JOY.
When Commander Gomez stepped on shore
and said aloud TO senior Monit Il bring more
arms and ammunition than se expected"
Numbering "hurrssh" drowned his voice.
speech was insisted upon, and the ministsr
of finance, addressing the almost frantic multi
tude, said:
Fellow Citizens: Lift MP your hearts Nov
Tor your courage. Up to this moment have
only counted on hearts and good will From to-
day We can also count on your arms
IF before we only had the support Of that
good will and were encouraged by the warmth
OF your hearts. today all who feel burning
within them the fire of patriotism can convert
into heroic acts that which was out q legiti-
mate and fattering hope. The Naipo has just
anchored in the bay laden with arms, and you
can all, noble sons of Chill, rush 20 take them
mp and begin the rofgh campaign that will
save your old institutions and bring tranquility
10 all Gillian homes.
'Good news for our mothers. Good new
for our wives and children. Good news for all
our fellow citizens- Go, then, enthusiastic
sons of Chill; take your weapons and begin the
work, confidently and joyfully, nov that we are
going 10 reconquer ali our old institutions and
then the star of our country will chine brighter
than any other"
Cheers and applause greeted every sentence
Of the speech, and the 'viyas" for the con-
gress, army and navy lasted for q long tine
sfterward.

The Mogul line steamship arrived at New
York yesterday from China and Japan with
summer tea, one Of the first consignments to
get here. In passing through the Indian
ocean. she encountered q terrific southwest
monsoon. In the Mediterranean she came
across a meteoric display. On August in the
Atlantic she had an electrical storm. Little
globules of light danced from yardarm to yard
arm. brilliantly Illuminating every part Of the
vessel
On August 8 and the following day the shin
sailed beneath another meteoric shower. IN
ten minutes no less than fifty shooting stars
were seen. They left streak Of light in the
sky which lasted from eight to twelve seconds.

IMPROVEMENT IN ALLEGHENY.

The desire of the Allegheny Department
of Public Safety for increased facilities is
but natural. The reorganization of the po-
lice, if conducted properly, will l'undoubted-
ly result in more efficient force. and conse-
quenlly an increased number of arrests.
This Till necessitate enlarged station house
accommodations, together with the conven-
fences mentioned in another column this
morning, all of which Allegheny, as q city
of the second class, should have. Preserva-
ton of the public peace and safety requires
both men and means, and the Councils of
our sister city will hardly fail to recognize
the fact. But there is one thing to be
guarded against.
In the past Allegheny has been as unfor-
tunate as other cities in having some .Coun-
cilmen whose sole idea of finance was en-
bodied in the word spend. Itmattered little
what was received for the cash so long as it
was given out in the name of improvement
There are standing to-day in the city over
the river numerous iron monuments to this
sort of eouncilmanic fnanciering. They
are called light towers, but they are light
only in the amount of good they do, while
their cost is heavy in proportion. -
When the Department of Public Safety
officials ask for the Improvements and con-
veniences mentioned above it can be ex-
pected that the requests will be granted.
Such action will be right, of course, but it
should not be made an excuse for reckless
expenditure.
Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1891-04-30

The canals were not abandoned because they
did not have an economic value. Forty
years ago they transported coal at cheaper
rates than the railroads are charging to-day;
and the expenditure of capital would have
increased their value and services to an
almost infinite degree. They were aban-
doned because they we're under political con-
troll. The influences which held their fate
had neither the enterprise nor the incentive
to make the Improvements which have been
made in the railway and. on theother hand,
the same controlling powers were suscepti-
BILE to the corporate powers which desired to
strangle them. In other words, the early
example of the Socialist idea of State con-
troll showed that the system of transportation
owned by the State lacked the enterprise
and expansive power necessary to preserve
its existence, while private enterprise had
the aggressiveness to strangle the State sys-
TENS of water transportation.
Experience testities against State social
ism where il can be avoided. The cure for
corporate evils lies in giving competition
wider scope instead OF wiping it out al
together in system of State control.

WASTED RESOLUTION.

The statement that the Farmers Mutual
Benefit Association of Illinois has adopted
esolution that wheat shall not be sold below
81 25 per bushel this year is simply an evil
dence of how foolishly some of the agricult-
ural class imagine they can put into force,
where competition is free, the monopolistic
edicts that are successful only where compet:-
ton is strangled. Such resolution will
not be. able to affect by a single cent the
price at which wheat will be sold during the
coming crop year.
So long as the. natural relations of, de-
mand and supply hold the price at 81 25 per
bushel, the order that no wheat shall be sold
below that may stand. But whenever sup
ply so far exceeds demand as TO reduce the
price to 81 or 81 O6. as at present, or to S5c
or 90c, as in an abundant crop Year, it SIM
ply means that those who respect such an
order will simply be unable to sell. 1t is
hardly to be supposed that the Farmers
Mutual Benefit Association iacludes all the
wheat growers of Illinois, and the result
will inevitably be that after the members
discover that their neighbors are selling
wheat while they are not they will speedily
tumble head over heels to sell their own
product at market prices. IT the associa-
tion could control the whole wheat product
of Illinois it would last only till the dis
covery was made that other States were
supplying the market IF it could control
the whole country it would simply amount
to turning over the foreign.markets to the
wheat growers of Russia, India and Egypt.
1t is exactly this inability OF the great de-
partments of popular industry to raise
prices by combination that constitutes the
hardship and injury of trusts. If every
thing could be marked up 30 or 100 per cent
by mutual agreement, it would simply
amount to a reduction of the purchasing
power of money in the same proportion. A
resolution 10 establish rigid minimum
price for wheat is pure waste of the
agricultural breath.

PAST LEGISLATIVE FoLLIEs.

Commenting on a paragraph from THE
DISPATCH with regard TO the value of
canals. the Chattanooga Times says: mo
two States in the Union have been guilty of
such judicial folly as Pennsylvania and
Ohio perpetrated, when they allowed the
railroads to jigger them out of their canals,
that cost in the two States over S56, ,000, 000."
With the verbal criticism that the folly
was legislative and political rather than
judicial, the above statement contains
large chunk of solid fact. Besides the
original cost of the canals, it is demon
stratable fact that if one-fourth the money
spent in extending and improving railway
transportation had been used in extending
and enlarging the canals, they would to-day
have presented larger transportation
capacity in proportion to the investment
'han the railroads, and would be carrying
eavY freights at one half the present charges.
not worth while 20 waste tears over
milk; but it is important 10 bear this
in mind as j measure of what can be
by the resuscitation of system of
Nter transportation.
