ARTIFICIAL PROMINENCE
The Attitude of San Francisco to the
Interior.
A vii NJ M.Iuro,, !, lo@+o-. g. g.

Inc AlGltuCS OF san francisco to the
Interior.
Arthur McEwen, in his letter from San
Francisco to the EUeR5ng Ne1Os, says:
The interior is suspicious of the Traffic
Association, regarding it as local in it's
aims, and therefore more or less inimical
to the interests of the rest of the State
The existence of this feeling shows there
IS abroad pretty clear perception that
san Francisco as a distributing point is.
with reference TO overland railroads. on
the wrong edge Of California. Prior to
1869, when everything from the East came
In through the Golden Gate, everything
had to pay tribute to this city. Since that
period, when the direction of commerce
was reversed, and most things came in
from the East instead of the West, San
Francisco has been at outs in interest
with every portion of the coast living
nearer than herself geographically to the
Eastern markets. She has insisted that the
Central and Southern Railroads should
carry goods past the doors of the con-
SumerS and compel them to follow the
trains, make their purchases here and
carry them back eastward to their
houses, with the heavy tax of local re-
turn rates added. In other words, San
Francisco has demanded that the rail-
roads should do for her by discrimina-
ton what nature did for her originally as
a seaport. Her prominence, long arti-
hclaIly maintained in this manner, has
been gradually broken down as
the interior filled up and became
influential. From the beginning the
railroad company has been under
steady pressure from the interior TO let
the neutral laws of trade have their way
and leave San Francisco to her fate 1t was
inevitable that this pressure should ulti-
mately tell. Such injustice, for example
as charging Elko, New, the through rate
of $500 on carload of candles from New
York, and clapping on an additional $500
for way carriage back from San Fran
cisco, could not be tolerated forever.
This example is typical of the whole sys-
tenn of discrimination for which the rail-
road company has been denounced
through the years, and Justly. vet it has
been practiced not only with the approval
but in answer to the prayers of the same
gentlemen who now form the Traffic As
sociation, which is out in anti-monopoly
war-paint clamoring for the railroads
scalp. The railroad is not to be defended,
OF course, for its discrimination, but it is
only fair that San Francisco's part in its
sins should be acknowledged.
One new overland railroad, nor a dozen
of them, can lift San Francisco up from
beside the Golden Gate and plant her on
the eastern border of the State. 1t was
her position by the Golden Gate which
gave her her sole rightful claim TO the
wholesale trade which she has lost
partly by reason OF the stupid inertness
OF her merchants, but chiefly by reason
OF the impossibility of making locomo-

Columbus Idea of the World.

Columbus believed the solid part of

great incentive to the execution and sue
