THE LEGAL FLUTTER.

Tie appointment Of an elisor to select a
portion of the Grand Jury has set portion
IF the Superior Court in a flulter. Judge
Murphy has seldom shown so much interest
IN a case as in the proceedings to determine
if Judge Wallace had properly exercised
the power the law gives a SUPERIOR Judge
in convicting Richard Chute of con-
tempt. But the people ask. Why this I'M
seemly futter? What principle of law is
being violated? Why does the leading
counsel Of the Southern Pacific Railroad
Company appear and give Mr.. Chute's
counsel the benefit of his long legal ex-
perienee? Why does Judge Murphy take
the part Of advocate in his own eourt2 Why
should all these combinations of legal
ability and judicial authority and political
Influence be brought to bear upon the case
whether Richard Chute should or should
not answer whatever questions the Grand
Jury might ask him? The public will bear
in mind that in the event of indictment the
legality of the Grand Jury may be tested in
the court of last resort, concerning whose
jurisdiction and right of review there is no
question. But no one has yet been in
dicled at least no one Of the parties who
futtered into Judge Murphys court on
Saturday. Ali this futter, then, was to
relieve Mr.. Chute from the embarrassment
OF telling the Grand Jury what he knows.
If Mr.. Chute is not in possession Of knowl-
edge that may not be known without in
jury to himself or others with whom he may
have been associated, the Grand Jury ex-
animation viii amount to nothing. The
futter indicates that Mr.. Chute has in
formation which the flutterers DO not
want TO get out. The more the lutterers
tiutter tie more determined the public will
be TO fnd out what makes them flutter. 1t
makes little difference whether Judge Muir
ply sets Chute free Ornot. If Chute follows
buckley, CRIB will be made for bigger
game than Chute

all, it tends to bring local artists and writer's
into contempt. People jump to the con-
cluSion that there can be no merit in work
of which such things can be said. An eX-
ample of this kind of satirical criticism
may be found on the editorial page OF Sun
days Examiner. The satirical critic says,
address ing supposed correspondent:
don't agree with you in your touching ap-
proyal of the sentiment of your sister bard;
Better the vain desire 20 scale Parnassus' height
Than stand at the base in the yielding mire'
And pierce with an of winged fire
Each soul In its upward flight.
But the satiricaI critic prefers to stand at
the base in the yielding mire. He admits
that II think it far and away better to do
the piercing than the flying" Tie average
man does what he can DO. When he be-
comes satisfied by repeated effort that he
cannot fly, he takes a certain pleasure in
piercing those who can.

WHY ARTISTS EMIGRATE.

Being about to bid farewell to San Fran
cisco, Emil Garrison, a well-known artist. is
reported to have said: :" am going where
people buy pictures, where there is an op-
D0rtunity 10 exhibit them and where name
means something" The complaint en-
bodied in these words is not made solely by
painters. Writers living in this State have
found that the Eastern newspapers and mag
aZines were the best mediums of reaching
their own friends The daily press eircu-
lates in this State as largely as in any city
in the Union, but its monopoly of news ac-
counts for its success. The EUeping Bulletin
is about the only local publication whose
literary standard has been recognized on
this Coast. Why people who are so proud
Of their State and its products should be
chary Of encouragement to their painters
and writer's is not difficult Of explanation.
There are some things that everybody Is
tolerably good judge OF, and others which
the average man or woman knows little
about. When one of our horses lowers-a
record an evidence of superiority is fur
nished that speaks for itself An envious
rival cannot pooh-pooh that demonstration
away. But when a great painting is placed
on exhibition or a fine book published there
IS no equally accurate test of merit at hand.
1t is safe to say that very few people know
a great painting when they see one or a
great book when they read one. They may
know that their artistic sense is pleased,
but not how the work that has pleased them
compares with the acknowledged great
works of its kind. Consequently when our
opulent people buy pictures or books they
select from those which have received the
stamp Of critical approval in the art GEN.
tiers of the world. 1t is pity that an artist
Of Mr.. Carlsen's ability should lack recog-
milton in this city. Even if Il purchaser be
in decorating his home with the works Of
such men as Garrison, Keith and several
others whose works have stood the COM
-fettiye test in Eastern cities. 1t is per-
baps our misfortune that satirical criticism
las been given more prominence in some
of cur daily journals than tile work the
satirical critic has subjected to review.
The public do not know the criticized
writers nor the criticized works, but they
find the satirical column more or less anus
ing. II may be said that the professional
use of faculty for satirical criticism elm
mates from the brain whatever element of
gofd it may have originally possessed. When

il finds itself capable of infictiDg, it soon

AMERICAN PIG TIN.

The Philadelphia firm of n. & G. Taylor
& Co. announces that shipment of thirty
five tons of American pig tin from mines in
San Benardino County. California, known
in this State as the Temescal tin mines, was
made on the 18th Of August. The Philadel-
phia firm says that on the receipt of this pig
tin it will be able to supply American tin
plate made from American materials and
by American workmen from start to finish.
This is the first shipment from the Temescal
mines out of the State. other shipments hav-
ing gone to San Francisco and been used for
making tin pipe and solder. The Taylor
firm is only 4 little in advance of several
Pennsylvania firms in the manufacture of
tin plate. There seems to be general
movement among sheet mill proprietorS to
transform their works into plants for the
production of tin plates. Pig tin OF the
quality produced at the Temescal mines is
all that is now needed to make tin plates q
thoroughly American product.

destitute of carboniferous deposits, and
must rely for heating and steam purposes
upon other fuels or a foreign supply.
Scientists of a speculative turn of mind
have sometimes amused themselves with the
inquiry what the world will do when the
coal fields are exhausted. That must come
in two or three centuries, and long before
then the forests will all have been cut down.
There prevailed at one time notion that
natural gas might take the place of coal, but
that is now exploded. The supply of voIa-
tile carbon did not last long. Some other
source of heat must be fOund-prObaby in
a new application of electricity. But that is
so far ahead in the distant future that no
prudent householder will neglect to lay in
his stock of coal before the coal barOns begin
their usual corner in fuel.

THE CALLS SUCCESS.

How the People Have Manifested Their
Appreciation.
There is truth in the observation of AN
evening contemporary that the fact the
newspapers Of San Francisco are striking at
THE CALL is a very sure sign it is formi-
dable rival There is some truth in the
statement that The CALL is the only morn
ing newspaper in San Francisco. 1t las
maintained itself against the power of capt.
tai, and we are not aware 1t ever sold its
editorial columns. Its merchandise has
been in the way of advertising. 1t is graft
flying the people have manifested their up
probation Of a newspaper that has been
able to successfully withstand the oppos-
ton it encountered. OF the Chronicle We
speak not, save that its proprietor is TO be
congratulated that he took heed Of the pub
lie sentiment that justified young kalloch
and Spreckeis; since his paper has been
comparatively clean. The play toy of young
Hearst does, however reach the ridiculous
in journalism, and has been an expensive
luxury. 1t was an attempt to build up
an artificial journal with varied attrac-
tons. IL one act there would be the
capture of a mammoth grizzly bear; then
the running of special railway trains; then
a puzzle contest; then an infant lottery and
other matters that had tendency to strike
the people as Delus VIC NtIicob idhcS. IucSc
amusements must have been agreeable to
the boy, but they cost Senator Hearst much
money. OF late, since the death Of the Sen
ator, there has been a suspension of these
absurdities, and it would appear the EX-

has ever been, and perhaps always will be,
that the people respect more the brains that
back a newspaper than they do the sack of
money. From the moment it becomes
known that a newspaper is subseryent to

years the printing of newspapers by corpO-

about forty yards from the saloon on the

an excellent reputation.
In October, 1890, Charles Dorsey and
Charles Shinn, two escaped convcts. were
captured in Chicago by Detective Hume.
On November 1st Shinn confessed to having
robbed Davis and Crownie. On Tuesday,

the late Governor Waterman.
1t the last session of the Legislature an
unsuccessful attempt was made to reimburse
Nelson for the time he had been deprived of
