wILLFUL MISREPRESENTATION.
The following editorial appeared in the
San Francisco Gail of Tuesday:

Our friends Of the RECoRD-UNIoN say the
shipment OF California fruit to England has
proved successful. AT the rate charged by
The railroad company-S1, 900 per carload
II has certainly proved successful so far as
shipments have been made for the Southern
Pacific Railroad Company. The question
watch remains TO be solved is whether the or
cnardists Will receive anything after paying
the 81 900 10 the railroad company.
The CAL has the same facilities that
have others to ascertain the truth. 1t
knew its statement was untruth, and it
penned it with full knowledge that it
would create false impression if re-
ceived. 1t fairly illustrates the methods
Of the demagogic press, however, and
will serve as a standard of measurement
by which to value all statements appear
ing in the CdU in cases where it has a
purpose to serve.
The facts are, as furnished by the Cali
fornia Fruit Transportation Company,
The shippers in question by means Of the
expedited or extra fast service, that the
fruit passes over the line of the Southern
Pacific Company to Ogden, thence by the
Union Pacific system, the Chicago and
Northwestern Railway and the Erie Dis
patch to New York, where the White
Star line of steamers takes up the ship
ment for the ocean transit to Liverpool,
England.
The fruits in fve-car lots of not less
5han 10000 pounds per car, move on pas
senger train time to New York for g 80
per 100 pounds for the hauling service.
From New York to Liverpool the charge
s 81 70 per 100 pounds. That is to say,
ahe four lines of railway carrying the
truit from Sacramento to New York di-
vide $500 per car of 10000 pounds.
In the face of these facts, and of which
t had full knowledge, the CaU attempts
70 lead the public to believe that the
Southern Pacific Company receives 81, 600
per carload for the expedited fruit service
in question. If the Cal enters for the
premium of colossal falsitiers it should
receive the award out of hand.

THE Democratic press, in anticipation
of the early opening of the campaign, has
begun to play tie worn old tune about
the Republican Administration squander-
ing the surplus. Let us see. Under
President Harrison fifteen new ships of
great cost have been added to the navy,
and all fitted out, for one thing; coast de-
Tense beginnings have been made for an
other, involving great OUTLAWS; thirdly,
over S275, $1,000 of the interest bearing
debt has been wiped out, and. finally, the
annual interest charge has been decreased
about one-third, or 81, 684, 5SS so. All
this exclusive Of the postal increase and
the enlarged demands of growing ma
ton. When surplus melts in that way a
just people applauds.

CoNDTT1oTs DETERMINING RATES.

CONDITIONS DETERMINING RATES.
One of the most significant things in all
The anti-railroad agitation certain of the
San Francisco press are endeavoring to
promote, is the purposefuI and careful
avoidance of reference to the wide differ
ence of railroading conditions here and
at the East. Comparisons of rates, fares.
mileage and tonnage are made constantly,
and always to the discredit of California
railway systems. But there is scarcely
an instance in which such comparisons
are formulated as proofs of railway extor-
ton in California in which it cannot be
shown that the conditions are wholly dis
similar
No account is taken whatever of the
cost of construction and maintenance.
volume of the tonnage moved, the grades
overcome, the cost of fuel, or the numer-
zeal character of the population upon
the travel and traffic of which the roads
are dependent. In some instances small
sections are cited Of Eastern and of Cali
fornia roads, where the conditions are
apparently similar. But in about all
such cases when the whole system is
taken into account it is found that there
IS great dissimilarity.
A road may fora brief distance in Cali
fornia traverse a section affording as good
support as a section Of road on an East
ern line of similar length; but it oftener
happens than not that the California roads
have indirect connection with such Sec
lions TO take into account, stretches in
separately related to the whole, that are
little more than bridges over non-sup-
porting areas-a condition practically I'M
known in the thickly settled East.
If there is apparent injustice in rail
road charges, it should be shown that it
exists under conditions that are similar
10 those existing on lines that are not
charged with making too high rates.
The fact is that conditions most largely
determine the charge for carriage,
whether it be by rail, by water or by
wagon. IF the cost of coal in California
in excess of its cost at the East; the diff
ference between the cost of material here
and at the East; the difference in the vol
ume of the traffic, passenger and freight,
here and at the East; if these differences
and such others as good sense justifies
between conditions are taken into ac-
count and given due weight the rates of
fares and freights on the California
railway system will be found to be
about level with those of Eastern roads
and in some cases below some Eastern
charges that are not complained of This
has been shown in ofncial reports before
authorized committees, by expert wit
nesses, by financial balances, andin many
other ways, but tIleaSitatioa press wholly

ignore the proofs and continue to print
their misleading comparisons.

THE man who is attempting to navi-
gate the air at San Diego with balloon
with wing attachments is attempting
nothing new. Wings to air-ships were
tried many years ago in all possible
ways. 1t was found that ascent and de-
scent could be aided by operating fan
like wings and a tail wing working upon
universal joint. But Maxim and others
have shown that propulsion in any ma
terial degree has never been attained by
the use of balloon wings. 1t has only re-
Gently been demonstrated that the flight
of a bird is not more the result of wing
pulsations than OF wave-Iike descent and
ascent upon long lines. Thus one ex-
perimenter propelled an air-ship from
the arm Of a mast after it had been made
to swing upon its pivot with great rapid
ity. The speed given sent the ship with
It's wings at certain angle upward by
gentle incline, when its tail wing was
elevated, and it fell along long line of
descent renewing its velocity; it was
again made to rise, but with much loss of
force and so on. until it ceased to have
forward motion. The renewal Of the lost
power in these flights has been the one
great problem. Aerial suspension of air.
| ships is easy enough; their rise and fall
by use of wings is established, but pro-
pulsion for any considerable distance has
not yet been achieved and it may be
doubted if it will be for a great many
groups of years yet to come, if ever. Ger
tainly cleverer men than the San Diego
| farmer, scientists with all resources at
hand; military powers with full measures
at command, and a thousand expert
mentors with limited means have attempt
ed balloon propulsion, and not one has
succeeded. True, this does not argue that
none ever will, but it does prove that or
binary wing appliances and action, with
an ordinary balloon as the supporting
body, will not give success. Some newer
device must be the key to the future in
this matter. The San Diego granger will
/ lose his money and his time, and possibly
mis- life, in attempting to do with old ma
chimes what experience proves is imprac-
/ ticable, if not impossible.

VIII Try Another Tacl,

Last week j. D. Tate escaped convic-
ton on charge of using the city water
for irrigating at an hour prohibited by
law, on the showing that he was not
aware the water was being so used.
Water Inspector Dole has, therefore,
arrested George Meyers, an employee Of
Tate, and intends to have the courts de-
termine if someone was not liable.
