HOW TO GET LOWER RATES.

In his recent paper On the railroad situa-
ton, Mr. Huntington points out two ways
by which rates may be reduced. One way
IS 10 increase tie tonnage, the other to
reduce tie wages that are paid to employees.
The latter means he does not like e. resort
10. There Is another way Mr.. Huntington
does not seem to have thought of. The
owners Of the roads have made not less
than 500, coo. eco out Of the meager traffic
we have. Might not profits be reduced a
liite as well as wages? If the cost of get
ting things 10 market were less, might not
more goods be produced in San Francisco
for tie interior, and might not the products
Of the Interior find larger sale In San Fran
cisco? Commenting upon the paper in a
friendly way. the Record Union says:
We are shipping wool raised III this State
across The continent, TO be returned across the
continent in Tie form of cloth. We are shipping
raw materials 10 New York and 10 Boston, 10 be
converted into IeaIber and shoes and 10 be again
slipped back 10 US We are, in short, sending
raw materials. Which constitute The opportunity
OF creating wealth, 10 more economic and intelli-
GEM communities, aud in sending away his raw
material We get The minimum out OF our natura
resources, and pay the maximum for the things
INTO which they have been converted, indis-
pensable TO our use as a civilized people.
A
not the high rates on freight from San
Francisco to the interior partly the cause?
Not long ago the manager Of an refractory
was before the State Railroad Commission,
asking for such a reduction OF rates on ice
to interior towns that he might increase his
sales. He showed that the charges on this
coast were out of all proportion to the
charges on Eastern roads, where the condi-
tions Of service were similar. But the ice
manufacturer got no satisfaction. The
State Commission reported a new schedule,
which was more oppressive in some respects
than the old one Mr.. Huntington avows a
purpose to take the Southern Pacific Com
pany out Of politics. Without calling his
intent in question, we must be permitted to
remark that little progress has been made
IN that direction since the intent was first
avOwed. There has never been more
irritating manifestation of political power
than the State Railroad Commission pre-
sents at each meeting, unless the recent
manpulations Of the Supreme Court on the
question Of the legality of the late Grand
Jury may be considered an exception The
people will give the Southern Pacific credit
for desire to build up the Industries of
this coast when, and only when, they see
some practical movement in that direction.

A STRANGE SPEECH.

The PaJaronian intimates that CALIFORNIA;
senior Senator has been fooled by some per-
son. The Senator is reported as saying
that owing to the improved harvesting ma
chinery used in this State grain can be cut,
thrashed and sacked for one and half
cents hundred pounds. This is news to
tile wbeat-grewerS of the San Joaquin Val
ley, where the best OF harvesting machinery
Is used. Our contemporary says:
At 30 cents per ton for all the harvesting
work machine would have 10 get about one
hundred acres per day TO be at all profitable II
a machine can 10 all this work at the price
quoted by the Senator. all that Is needed to make
the gran-farmers OF this State our wealthiest
citizens would be for the railroad company. in
which the Senator Is such a heavy owner, to re.
duce It's freight rates on grain and other farming
commodities ia even less proportion than the
Senator says that The cost OF grain harvesting
has been cut down. Then California would have
golden age.
On the principle OF charging for freight
all the traffic will bear, the less the cost of
growing wheat the more there will be left

charge may be considered all the traffic will

A CHANGE FOR A FIGHT.

A contemporary thinks that the United
States should adopt perempto.y tone in
dealing with the Boring Sea controversy,
giving as the principal reason for such a
cause that Great Britain cannot afford a
war with the United States. While it is
probable that Lord Salisbury has assumed
his Jaunty attitude in the belief that he will
have no trouble in maintaining it, too much
calculation should not be placed on his readi-
ness TO back down. The English understand
the immense advantage their navy gives them.
and perhaps think the American peopic will
stand good deal OF crewding before they
VIII naugurats a policy which will set that
navy in motion. But the time has clearly
arrived for the United States to let England
understand that, ready or not, we will con-
duct controversies with the English Gov
eminent on the same line we would adopt
toward Chile. If the American Government
gives way in the Bering Sea matter it will

MONEY-MAKING Project.

Some years ago when n discussion as 20
what should be done with the outside lands
in San Francisco was transpiring THE
CALI advocated the survey of all OF these
lands into moderately sized lots and dOnat-
ing them to settlers. Voters, however, did
not heed this advice. bat permitted the
land 10 pass into the hands of spectators
in large tracts. The grant for the city
lands came while San Francisco remained
under Mexican rule. Next came a grant
from Congress to the tide and overlooked
lands, some OF which was very valuable,
for instance that located OF the bay, near
San Francisco. This land also passed into
the hands Of spectators without much
benefit to the public. That in front of the
city OF Oakland, we believe, was given 10
Carpenter by an act OF the Legislature, the
most of which is now owned by the rail-
road company. Now comes a proposition
to give all Of the arid lands to the different
States. 1t is scarcely necessary for Us to
express the opinion that such lands If they
were given to the State of California would
pass also into the hands Of SPECTATORS. 1t
would not be possible 10 keep out OF the
grasp OF a few men, with such l. legislatures
as we have had in the past, and are likely
to have in the future. Here is what a con-
temporary says of .he bill which is now
pending at Washington:

lamatlon of Arid Lands has decided 20 report

NIECE OF THE GAR.

The Gar of Russia seems to be regarded
as the social apex of Europe. Americans
in court circles are the base. Thus we see
a daughter-n-law Of the Queen of England
declining to receive any Americans except
those who belong 10 the diplomatic circle,
while she declares that no child of niece
OF the Russian Emperor "shall mate with
the beggarly descendants of Jack Churchill"
We find, however, that the American
Duchess of Marlborough is so charmed with
the prospect of becoming slepmother to a
niece of the Gar that she promises to make
her stepsOn her heir in case he marries
the daughter of the Duke and Duchess of
Edinburgh. Between England and Russia
there is only a pretense of friendship, but
the E nglish royal family seem to think that
the Russian royal family is notch above
Itself in the social scale. For some reason
women dearly love despots. The more
despotic the despot the more worShiped by
women. A most accomplished American
woman is not considered worthy Of stand
ing room in English court circles, but
commonplace girl who happens to be the
daughter of a niece Of the Russian Emperor
is held as above the aspiration of an Eng
lish noblemau. History tells us that while
the Partisan popuiace were clamoring for
bread, French princess asked why If there
was no bread they did not give the hungry
people cake. The remark, silly rs it was,
had something to 90 with the revolution
which cost French King his head.

England in the rehabilitation Of silver.
