NOT OUR MISTAKE.
A correspondent writes /:

W
You so often assert that the Democratic plat
form declares protection TO American labor un.
constitutional that must with your permission,
call your attention 10 your mistake.
Not our mistake. The mistake was CON-
mitted at Chicago by persons claiming to
represent the Democratic party. After de-
nouncing Republican protection as q fraud
the tariff resolution adopted by that conyen-
ton continues: I'VE declare it to be the
fundamental principle of the Democratic
party that tie Federal Government has no
constitutional power to impose and collect
tariff duties except for purposes of revenue
only, and we demand that the collection of
such taxes shall be limited to the necessities
Of the Government when honestly and eco
nomically administered"
In this remarkable declaration OF princi-
pies the fundamental principle is that the
Federal Government has no constitutional
right to impose and collect tariff duties ex-
cept for the purposes of revenue only. Even
incidental protection is not permitted. Is
not THE CALI. then perfectly justified in
making the assertion that the Democratic
party declares protection to American labor
unconstitutional? Our correspondent con-
Times: 1T (the present tariff is q fraud be-

OF protection. So the platform declares the
defrauding OF labor, not the protection of
labor. unconstitutional" Reasoning from
false premises is generally fatal TO an argu-
ment. and Is especially so in this case. We
have only the writer's assertion that the
present tariff robs the laboring man uader
the ptetense Of protection. The weight OF
evidence is the other way. Democratic

that the present tariff has caused general

as his wants increase. he introduces parti-

crease his comfort. Still higher develop

mind inclines to thoughts Of beauty as well
as to comfort. He retains an artist to draw
the facade of his house, and he distributes
his structure, inside and out, so as to capti-
vate the eye When society has reached
this stage. a craving arises for buildings
of massive proportions and commanding
beauty, which are beyond the means of in
diyiduals; and public edifices. magnificent
and splendid, make their appearance.
San Francisco has not reached the culmi-
mating stage in this evolution. but it Is rap
idly approaching it. We are in the stage
when men are prepared 10 pay large sums
for the highest order Of beauty and comfort
in their dwelling-house and for the biggest
sort OF business dwellings. The object of the
latter is to realize the largest possible rental
ont Of the occupation Of given lot OF land.
Thus no thought Of artistic architecture
enters into The mind Of their owners. Their
buildings are parallelograms, with straight
sides, low ceilings and as many stories as
the foundation will bear. Every square
foot Of each story is expected to bring in
rent-moDey; The space occupied by passages
and elevator is grudgingly conceded. As a
business proposition these tall buildings
must be admitted to be likely to fill their
purpose; whether they prove perfect sue
cess cannot be decided until they have gone
through The ordeal Of fire and earthquake.
The private dwellings which are now be-
ing erected in the Western Addition are the
most luxurious residences that were ever
erected here; they are, perhaps, not sur
passed anywhere. They abound with every
modern convenience and are replete with

THE CHINESE AT BAY.

The Chinese Nice-COnsul is reported as
saying in an interview with CALL re-
porter: ITO start with, the Geary bill is a
gross violation of the treaty now supposed
10 be in existence between this Government
and the Imperial Government Of China. 1t
seems as if your people think that all they
have 10 do is 80 keep such Of the provisions
Of that contract made between two great
powers as may suit them and violate such
as they choose with impunity."
Tie Geary bill is the latest expression OF
the will Of the people Of the United States.
The treaty the Chinese Consul speaks Of
was made twelve years ago. In the mean
time the American people have discovered
that The conditions Of the treaty could not
be observed without sacrifice Of the object
to promote which the treaty was formed.
The main purpose Of the treaty was to
obtain the consent of the Chinese Govern
ment 10 the exclusion of Chinese laborers.
The Chinese Government gave such con-
sent With the pTovis0 that the Chinese then
in The United States should come ard 60 at
will. The act of 1882, aud the amended act,
passed two years later. attempted to pro-
vide a system by which Chinese might 60 to
China and return. But it was soon found
that the certificate system was impractical
bic. One ChiDaman went ana another re-
turned. Accurate Identification was impos-
sible. and the disregard of Chinese for the
oath as administered in American courts
had much TO do with that conclusion.
In 1883 a law was passed denying to Chi
Dese at that time in the United States the
privilege Of return. The law was praeti-
cal abrogaton Of an important provision Of
the treaty. But in enacting it Congress ex-
ercised the sovereign power of the nation
at whatever peril such exercise of pow er
might entail The people and their repre-
sentatives held that the possible conse-
quence Of such action involved minor evil
compared to that Of continued Chinese i'm
migration. The Geary act is another step
toward the exclusion of Chinese. As these
people were smuggling themselves in by
every conceivable device Congress deter
mined to require those here to register. aud
to send Chinese found without registration
papers out Of the country. The act is an
other exercise Of the sovereign will of the
people, and it will be enforced. Represen-
tatives Of the Chinese Government are maxi
ing a great mistake in throwing obstacles in
the way of its enforcement. The people of
the United States have a clear right to re-
fuse 10 admit immigrants from any and all
nations, and the law the Chinese oppose is
only proper method of carrying that right

ADVANCE IN FREIGHT RATES.

When General Freight Agent Stubs
found that he could not dictate to the
Transeontinental Association his thoughts
naturally turned in the direction Of a people
who are at the time defenseless. ana con-
sequently may be robbed with impunity.
The people Of California had stood good
deal without tearing up the Southern Pa
cifc road tracks, and Mr.. Stnbbs not un-
naturally concluded that they would stand
a little more. The first public act of Mr..
Stubs after his return was to issue cir
cular notifying all shippers that after the
18th inst. the freight on grain from Corinne,
Utah. to Port Costa and South Vallejo will
be 81 80 per ton, and TO Oakland wharf and
San Francisco IS per ton. This is an adj
vance of about 50 per cent, the present rate
being So per ton. The effect OF this adj
vance in weStward-bound freights may be
TO cause grain from Corinne 10 move east
ward instead Of coming west TO tide water.
The Southern Pacific proposes to make the
cost Of reaching tide water at Port Costa,
South Vallejo. Oakland or San Francisco
greater than from either of these points to
Liverpool. To the extent to which wheat
moves east from Corinne the Southern Pa
efic will not profit by the advance in
freights. But on all grain that comes west
the Kentucky company will collect 30 per
cent in excess of former charges. The pre-
sumption is that this is not the only cir
cuIar Of the kind Mr.. Stubs will issue.
