ABOUT TIN PLATE.

On no other point is there such deter
mined and persistent unanimity in Demo-
cratic and Mugwump circles as on the tin
plate question and collateral issues. They
are of one mind and cannot be changed
or shaken, that there are no tin mines in
this country; that none can be discovered;
that If there were tin mines or if any
should be discovered tin cannot be mined
at profit; that if the metal shall be pro-
duced at profit it cannot be proftably
used in the manufacture Of tin plate, etc.,
ETC., etc, ad Hbitum.
Ii has been to no purpose that the fact
has been demonstrated to the satisfaction
of heavy capitalists that tin does exist in
California, the Black Hills and other
localities, in paying quantities, and that it
can be and will be produced at profit in
competition with the Welsh product.
These parties pooh-pooh, all such propo-
sitions, fatty deny them, or dogmatically
refuse to believe them.
And so as to the numerous beginnings
in tin plate manufacture stimulated by
the encouragement offered in the new
tariff. The announcement of enterprises
| for the development of this great industry
! are followed by counter-announcement
in prominent journals that they have
made special arrangements for hunting
down" the projectors of such establish
ments, as though they were criminals,
! engaged in some nefarious conspiracy
against the public peace and general well
| fare.
| In the first place the reports of such en-
! terprises were roundly denounced as
| fraudulent and delusive. Then came Mr..
| Joseph Nimmo, jr., the noted statistician,
and produced a letter bearing date of May
| IL. from James NJ. Swank, General Mana

citation. reputable and responsible man,
who SAYS, 1--WE are today making tin plate

And forthwith these eonspirators against

also are "hunted down" And in sour

THE COAST SHIPPING TRADE.
Caused by Over Supply
Of Coal and Lumber.


SAN FRANCISCO, May 27.-"There appears to be
a general decentralization of the coast shipping
trade" says Captain Taylor, president of the
Chamber of Commerce. "Trade was very good
during the winter, and 1t is to be regretted it
fell through just at the opening of our busy
season."
"How do you account for it?'
"There is great dullness in the lumber bust
ness now, that causes large number of coast
ers to lie idle. Then coal is cheap on account
OF an over supply in the market. That lessons
the demand for transportation, and last, but not
least, the strike among the coal mines up North
lately has been the means of holding larger
number of vessels there, waiting for cargoes.
You can see there are very good reasons for a
decentralization of trade now"
"Do you see any near prospects Tor revival
OF trader"
~ can't say that do. There must first be
more life in the lumber trade, and there must
be greater demand for coal, and the strikes
among the miners must cease. When revival
rests on these improbabilities, how are you
going to have it? Contracts for building coast
ing vessels during the past winter are now be-
ing finished up, and ii is probable when these
ships are launched there will be little demand
for the construction OF other ones at once"
"Do you consider the Hawaiian trade is i'm
proving much7'
at has been improving rapidly for the past
ten years. aud it seems TO me that IL must go on
improving as rapidly right straight along. The
plantation business is getting to be big thing
on the Islands. of course, we viii have to build
| plenty OF ships to keep up with the increase OF
| trade there"

Pomeroy East Wdshingtonidn: "There is moth

Democratic Boston Globe and says: Sup
pose tin plate can be made in this country.
.s The secretary of the tin plate as
ISOLATION has demonstrated that we have
the facilities. the labor, the material, the
machinery and the market, and there is no
reason why it should not be made here
cheaper than in any country in the world.
- But when such figures are accepted
they form the very best possible reason
why there should be no tariff tar on i'm
ported tin plate. Then why shut
out the worlds competitionf"
The course that has been so persistently
pursued in this matter, and the conclu-
sions above quoted, afford the highest pos
sible vindication of the wisdom in this
connection of those who framed the new
tariff. It makes so clear that he who runs
may read, that without the additional pro-
lection afforded by that measure it would
have been futile to have attempted the es-
Enlistment Of that industry in this coun-
try. The same influences that seek to de-
cry the attempts under existing conditions,
and to "hunt them down." and to write
and jeer them out of existence, would have
been far more potent when backed by freer
foreign competition. And the Welsh man
ufacturers, who have ordered shutdown
during the months of July and August,
would have driven to the wall any at
tempted American enterprises by flooding
our market at ruinously reduced rates.
And the very sneers that have been
made at some of the new establishments
afford most telling argument against the
sneerers. If Welshman and a few mex
perienced boys, with limited accommoda-
tions and the latter lacking in experience,
can produce a moderate quantity at cost
not exceeding present prices of the i'm
ported under the old tariff, what may not
be expected from extensive works and ex-
perienced hands in the manufacture of
vast quantities. The hunting down"
will be on the other track before this ques-
ton is finally settled, and the hunting will
be by the friends of American enterprise
and industry.

have CURLY announced to the Council that
it had received no bids, but that course
would have afforded no information
Of value to the Council in determining
the remedy to be applied. 1t would have
served no good purpose to submit the
matter to the corporation counsel. The
Board did not question his opinion, it
merely recited that the contractors had
given the opinion of other lawyers as their
reason for not putting in bids.
Whatever Judge Jacobs opinion might
be the fact remains that those who might
he expected to purchase the bonds would
not do il while doubt remained.
The Board did suggest to the Council, as
he says. that friendly suit be taken to
the supreme court in order to authorita-
lively settle the question: procedure by
no means uncommon, and much more
economical and wise than continuing 10
issue bonds which nobody will take. Inc
Judge says he is not prepared to swear that
the city comptroller is about to Issue local
Improvement bonds. The records show
that the comptroller has been directed by
ordinance TO do so. Would it be stretch
of assumption or ''sham" for citizen to
apply for an injunction based upon state
ment of facts prepared by the corporation
counsel7
1t is very serious matter for the city.
Property-owners are anxious TO nave
streets graded under authority of the char
ter, the City Council desires to proceed
within constitutional limits, and the Board
of Public Works is anxious to afford much
needed employment to labor. They are
all hampered by a vexatious question,
which the decision of the supreme court
will settle.
Ifquestions of law never arose there
would be little need of lawyers; friendly
suit now is better than malevolent one

The Dalton Gang Not Captured,

SAN FRANCISCO, May "a press telegram
from Oklahoma City, dated May q, reeitei the
fact that the United States deputy marshals and
the troops OF the United States cavalry had had
fight with the notorious Dalton gang of train
robbers. and that in the engagement Bob Dalton
was killed. The Daltons are wanted in this
state for the Pixley and Alila train robberes. in
which several people were killed. The news
from Oklahoma City was so eircumstantial that
the California Officers accepted the statement as
correct, but could not obtain any verifcatiop.
Yesterday United States Marshal Grimes tele-
graphed 10 this city from Guthrie, stating that
there was no truth in the statement that a fight
and capture had been made, and that the state
meut published had been misleading to the
forces now In search OF the robbers.

MEMORIAL DAY.

The ceremonies which will be performed
on Saturday next quite generally through
out the United Sta.es appeal with singular
force to the nobler impulses of all patriotic
citizens. With obvious propriety the lead
ership in these ceremonies is generally
conceded to the members of the Grand
Army of the Republic, the surviving COM
rades of the patriot dead whose memories
are thus kept green.
But it is an occasion which equally with
these all others who love their country.
and are grateful for its preservation, and
who honor it's defenders, should hold
sacred and appropriately commemorate.
All such should, equally with the MEM
bers of the @. A. R., esteem it solemn
pleasure, no less than duty, to thus COM
memorate the day, and equally sensitive
with them as to the appropriateness of the
commemoration.
1t is the day set apart as the one upon
which a great nation will pay an appre-
ciative tribute to the memory of the heroes
who died or offered the hazard of their
lives in the defense of its honor and its
life. This may not be appropriately done
with gay festivities of any kind, either as
feature of the ceremonies, nor in their
presence, nor simultaneously.
Not thus would any person of true sem
timent offend the private memorial ser
vices of esteemed friends. This is sub
ject upon which it seems unnecessary to
multiply words or arguments. 1t is hoped
and believed all will forbear, on this one
consecrated day, participation in any
boisterous or frivolous amusements or
to solemn tribute to the heroic dead, who
died that our Union might live.
