WHAT MIoHT BE DONE.

The Central Californian discaims being
a railroad organ. We give that journal the
benefit Of the disclaimer, and at the same
time suggest that if il does not like to be
ranked among railroad papers IL should not
join in the railroad chorus. When paper
attributes the comparatively slow growth Of
San Francisco to a lack Of enterprise on the
part OF its merchants, when the facts are
before it showing that railroad discrimna-
ton against the city is the real and an all
sufficient cause, the conclusion is not farA
fetched that the railroad company, which is
responsible for the adverse discrimination,
Is the source OF its inspiration. The CALI
fornidn says in respect to the means of
emancipation that the city may adopt:
The moneyed men Of San Francisco have the
means within their power to break the Southern
Pacific shackles which bind them. They eau not
ouly relieve themselves aud their city, but they
can rescue the entire State from the avaricous
grasp Of the most souless railroad corporation
on the face OF The earth. All that is necessary is
TO organize aud build road from San Francisco
10 Mojave. Such road would cost not 10 exceed
seven millions Of dollars. and that sum could be
saved TO the citizens of this State inside OF two
years in cheaper freight aud passenger rates.
and The road still pay a good interest TO the
stockholders. The building of this road would
give San Francisco competitive rates over the
Atcbison system, and little encouragement
would then induce other lines to reach westward
from Denver aud Salt Lake.
This plan of relief would be good one il
the construction OF q railroad from San
Francisco to Mojave would give the stock
holders controlling voice in the Atchison
management. But the moment road over
that route Is in working order the Atchison
management will be presented with the al
tentative of competition or combination.
The owners of the few hundred miles of
road at the west end of the Atchison route
would not have decisive voice In the
matter. Now no one doubts what the ulti-
mate decision Of the Atchison people would
be. They would combine with the South
ern Pacific and fix charges based upon the
increased expense account of two railroads.
MIR. Huntington says if the traffic over the
Southern Pacific was materially increased
rates OF freight might be reduced. But with
two roads doing the work that one might
easily do operating expenses would un-
ay0idably be increased. No man supposes
That the Atchison people have built rail-
road across the continent with any inten-
ton OF losing money by operating it.
Neither does any one suppose that the
Southern Pacific people will quietly submit
to a loss of their traffic. If, on the compile
ton of road from San Francisco to Nc
jaye. the Atchson people should reduce
rates below the Southern Pacific. brief
competition would inevitably be followed
by combination on the part OF the two
companies. There Is an idea prevalent 10

ing in London. The English advocates of
protection were not allowed to speak. A
wealthy Observation-Disclosures whose bust
ness las been greatly injured by the Nc
Kinley tariff began his speech by admitting
the wisdom Of the Americans in adopting

who had been discharged On account OF the
falling off In exports to the United States
did not care to hear the policy eulogiZed
which had deprived them of work.
Probably at the present time and under
existing conditions the English ee-trader
has the better of the argument. England
is Ell gagged in supplying the markets Of the
world. To hold her trade she must manu-
facture as cheapIy as any other nation.
Her ability to manufacture cheaply de-
ponds largely upon cheap food. An increase
in the cost of living would necessitate an
increase in wages, and an increase in wages
would add to the cost of production. Eng
land can hold her own markets without
duties on foreign-made goods, aud conse-
quently her chief concern is to supply for
eign markets. These arguments do not
apply to the United States, and will not
until we also compete for the markets of
the world. Our present aim and purpose is
to supply our own markets. While duties
on foreign goods would not help in a strug-
gle for foreign markets, they DO help US ia a
struggle for our own.

a WORD TO THE SENATE.

The Republican gains in Rhode Island
afford a strong hope that the Republicans
may elect their national ticket in Noyem-
Der. But this hope is not certainty. If
the Senate. which is Republican, refuses to
pass Chinese exclusion law there will be
great danger that three or four States
which are essential to Republican success
will be found in the Democratic column
when the November vote is counted The
Republicans carried Rhode Island on the
tariff question. The issue could not have
been more clearly made. Mr.. Cleveland
himself was induced to take an active part
in the campaign, and he insisted that tarh
reform was the dominant issue between the
two parties But the tariff-refOrmers will
ask, in case the Republican Senate refuses
to pass a Chinese exclusion act, of what
use it is to keep out the products of cheap
labor and let cheap labor in. If the en-
ployer is protected by duties on the products
of foreign mills, why should not the en-
ploye be protected by the exclusion of
cheap and deprayed workers? There is
evidently a movement in Now York hostile
to exclusion. The Chinese merchants ara
trying to create the impression that the ex-
ciusion of all classes of Chinese is kind of
persecution. Some Of them have got rich
in this country. and they claim that the
conditions which have enabled them to
accumulate fortunes should be continued.
There is no proposition to drive Chinese out
of the country. Such a proposition will
only be made should the Chinese Govern
ment In spirit Of retaliation expel Ameri-
cans from China. Under an exclusion act
it is expected that the Chinese population
VIII fall off from year to year. The de-
partures Will be reduced by the fact that
that return will not be possible and the
natural decrease by death will be partially
offset by the immigration through Canada.
Still, with a thorough exclusion law in
operation there will be a gradual decrease
in the Chinese population of the country.
But the decrease will be gradual, and unless
an attempt at retaliation is made by the
Chinese Government Chinese merchants
will continue business as al present.

QUEER IDEAS.

A newspaper contemporary reports Mr.
Huntington in reference to the Nicaragua
canal. as saying: 81 don't think it will ever
be built, and don't see why it should" Mr..
Huntington has the merit of speaking
frankly upon every subject in which be
takes an interest, and he must feel an ill.,
terest in the canal, for when it is built it
Will take large amount of freight from
the railroads. THIS will he inevitable, yet
as Mr.. Huntington views the situation, if
freights be taken via Nicaragua, it will leave
the railroads with so light a freight list
that charges upon the railroads must be
increased" Embracing such views, it can
be realized that Mr.. Huntington appre-
hends that the construction Of the Nicaragua
canal would be an injury. TIE CALLS
opinions coincide with those of Mr.. Hunt
ington to this extent, that a canal via Mica
ragua would reduce the amount OF freight
going forward on the railroads. We do be-
Iieye, however, that freight rates by Mica
ragua would not be more than one-fourth
or one-third what they are by tie railroad,
and that the tbree-fourths or two-thirds of
the freight charges saved would soon enrich

PAYABLE IN GOLD.

The fact that Senator Stewart holds
number of mortgages on Oakland property.
the principal and interest Of which are pay
able in gold, has no other significance than
to call public attention to the consequence
Of drop to the silver standard. In every
note of hand, bono, mortgage or other evil
dence of indebtedness that has been given
since silver began to depreciate, the stipula-
ton has been made that payment should
be made in United States gold coin. What
ever notes. bonds or mortgages Mr.. Stewart
may hold were, without doubt, made in the
usual form. But let US suppose that the
free-coinage bill had become a law. Not
only would the silver dollar be made legal
tender, as it is now. but with the limit on
the silver Issue removed silver would newt
ably become the dollar Of general COM
merce. But it does not follow that silver
would pay a debt made by express terms
passed, Mr.. Stewart and all other creditors
would be entitled to gold. while wages
would be paid in silver. Mr.. Stewart inti-
mates that the custom of STIMULATING for pay
ment in gold is peculiar 10 California. In
this there is reason to believe that he is in
error. During the last two or three years
Eastern money lenders have refused to
make loans unless the borrower would agree
TO gold payment. How universal this prac-
lice has become we do not know, but it is
reasonable to assume that lenders of gold
should decline to take the chances of being
paid in deprecated currency.

STATE BUILDINGS AT THE FAIR.

A Chicago paper, which may be presumed
to be not inimical to the Worlds Fair. has
tie following:
The north END Of the park is to be Uttered by a
lot OF State buildings, the tremendous Illinois
junksbOp dominating all of them. Logically
they can show nothing, because whatever is
properly entered for exhibition goes necessarily
10 its place 10 the classified buildings. These
SNOWY and expensive buildings Will be sheer
waste. They VIII be eXcrescences upon ground
which may justly Claim a pretentious architect
ural exhibit In the buildings necessarily erected
The Stale buildings viii be headquarters for
pansiye State Commissioners aud their retinne,
and VIII be Of no general utility whatever.
THIS expression of opinion was called out
by the action Of Nevada in abandoning the
site assigned to her on the north end of the
park with the purpose to concentrate her
resources in an effort to make the best pos
sible exhibit in the Mines and Mining build
ing The Chicago paper is not quite right
In saying that the State buildings can show
nothing. They can show whatever is taken
into them, but they can do nothing but
show. All products entered for competi-
ton will necessarily be placed ia the class
fled buildings
California raisinS entered in the State
building may make a fine show, but they
will not win any prizes or even honorable
mention" 1t is expected, however. tina:
California will make a show in her State
building which will attract considerable
attention. People who spend several days
at the fair will walk through the private
shows of the best known States or the
States concerning which the greatest curl
esity exists. Probably there is no State in
the Union so distinctive in its productions
as California. The cotton of one Southern
State will much resemble the cotton of
another Southern State. The mills of New
England and the Middle States produce
textiles of rare finish and beauty, but they
are pretty much all alike. The expert may
see difference, but the ordinary sightseer
will bunch them under the general head Of
pretty things" But when the ordinary
siehtseer strikes California his attention
Will be arrested There will be a more
varied display than any other State can
make. Semi tropical fruits which are
associated in the minds OF Eastern people
with the Mediterranean will be found in
the California building in abundance and
Of improved variety. 1t is true that these
products will be or exhibition only They
will not be compared by experts with
similar products from other countries, but
some good may result from the mere exhibi-
ton. 1t is matter for regret, however,
that the money the State appropriated for
the fair could not have been expended
where it would do the most good.

road history in this country. When two
railroad companies contend for the same

tain to follow. The relief Of San Francisco
lies in opening water routes and connecting
the interior of the State with the seaport.
This will not close up the ralIoad In
