Major Truman is not only a noted an
thor and journalist, but gentleman Of
extensive travel and observation, and is
believed to be the most eminent ALL
around authority on wines and wine.
making living, he having written largely
on this most fascinating subject and
having visited the leading vineyards and
wineries of America and Europe. Major
Truman has also been a visitor to most
of the worlds fairs during the past
twenty-five years, and is understood to
be the choice of Director-General Davis.
Chief Samuels and the horticultural
committee of the Chicago directors, as
yiticultural officer for the Columbian
exposition. The major has made no
effort in the way of getting up petitions
and recommendations, as he has re-
ceived assurances that his services
would be required. Mr.. De Young got
large number of the national
commissioners to sign a re-
quest to the director general to
appoint man whom not one
OF them knew, named LaRue. But as
the director-general had practically
made his selection some months ago,
and as Truman had governed himself
accordingly, it is fair to presume that
Mr.. Davis will not be deferred from his
course. Major Truman was the private
and confidential secretary of President
Andrew Johnson, has been one Of the
commissioners of the Yosemite valley,
and has been an attendant at number
of worlds fairs in Europe and America.
He is the author of many books, one of
which, The Field of Honor, is the only
complete work on dueling in any Ian.
guage. The major is also a sunshinv
fellow, raconteur OF note, and gentle
man of superior address and manner.
He has among other things in his pos
session thousands of articles and books
on vines and wines, pests of vines and
their cures or remedies, and wine cards
from nearly all the frst-class hotels in
the world. He has also made study
OF fruits, and has published number
of pictorial articles on fruits and wines
in the London Graphic and Frank Les
lies illustrated Newspaper.
1t seems to us that if a single man can
have such pull on the director-general
as to bulldoze him out of proper ap.
pointments, he is not the man we take
him for and that there are other weak
men besides Baker, Butterworth and
others. We can say very respectfully to
the director-general that he should ap.
point Major Truman-especially as he
has been his choice-and not only
secure well.equipped man as viticul-
tural officer, but do Southern California
the honor of selecting one represent
ative from said section.

OUR esteemed contemporary, the
Evening Express, is sometimes quite
Eighty in its assumptions. 1t says that
a gentleman connected with the HER
AID, who made speech at the chamber
of commerce meeting, Saturday after
noon, denounced" Senators Stanford
and FELTON,. This is all the veriest rot.
He did nothing OF the kind. As to the
senators. he simply said that they lived
within three or four miles OF each other,
and that naturally, following the Pc
euliar rule which prevails in California,
they could not be expected to support
the claims OF this section very heavily.
The gentleman concerned has some
times had occasion to denounce Senator
Stanford's public acts in his news
paper, and has done so with
earnestness when the occasion seemed
to call for it, but he was
not conscious of intending any animad-
version on this particular occasion. par
ticulariy towards Senator FELTON,, who
has shown disposition to be a little
friendly. AS to Bowers, it would be an
nnaccountable circumstance if any self
respecting Angelefio should fail to re-
mind Los Angeles audience of that
individuars recreancy to promises made
so glibly and repeatedly. Where be
those $4,000 he was so determined to
bawl for in congress in re the improve
ment of San Pedro? Instead of making
any effort to enforce fair play for San
Pedro, he has been putting in his leisure
time in impreasing on congressman and
the rest of mankind the idea that San
Diego is great and opulent city of two
or three hundred thousand inhabitants,
and that Los Angeles and other cities OF
Southern California are small wayside
villages. And it serves US perfectly
right for sending him there.

Rapid Progress In Constructing the
Railroad.
Work is rapidly progressing on the
Mount Wilson railway. A force of some
twenty men are engaged, and the grad
ing of the cable section is about half
finished. The ground is found to be
most favorable for such an enterprise,
consisting of partially disintegrated
granite, which can easily be handled
with pick and shovel, and will furnish
a splendid foundation for the incline.
3 The surveyors of the extension of the
Terminal railway from Altadena to Ru-
bio cafion, at the foot of the incline,
were driving their final grading stakes
last week, and it is presumed will soon
begin work on that section.

SAN FRANCISCO AND THE IN
TERROR.

The RECORD UNIONS dispassionate
criticism of San Francisco methods re-
garding the building of its commercial
interests receives commentator gener-
ally, and notes Of approval from thought
full people convey to this journal evil
dence of the force of the argument and
the justice of the conclusion reached by
the RECORD UNION, in the opinion OF
thoughtful men.
Notably the article in which the REC
oRD-UNIoN pointed the distinction be-
tween true and narrow-m minded mercan-
tile enterprise, as illustrated by the COM
parison of Melbourne with San Fran
cisco methods, appears to have COM
manded approval. From among such
commendatory expressions. we print
herewith a letter from one of the most
thoughtful, experienced and far-seeing
business men of the State. He says:
''Your editorial concerning the slow
progress of San Francisco, in the REC
oRD-UNIoN of March 25th, should reach
the eyes of every business man of our
metropolis; and yet what leaven can
ever quicken this stolid mass into any
sort of intelligent activity? Look al
their supineness as to the vital question
of land monopoly which you have sc
ably attacked.
stVVbat ,,oarobapf in Cap EraDaisoo had
ever dreamed that the fruit-growers had
built up an industry exceeding in export
value that of wheat until the State Board
of Trade showed it in 1890, and this, too
without diminishing the product of wheat
one bushel? And now that we have this
industry established, and increasing in
value several millions of dollars an
nuauy, what one of these business men
has given thought to its bearing upon
trade, and how we are to maintain oul
markets? Which one of these, beside
Albert Gallatin, who happened to be al
the Board of Trade meeting, where the
subject was discussed, has ever lifted 6
hand to extend our trade to England and
the Continent?
SIN this industry alone is a source O.
wealth to the State that will reach $50, 000,-
600 within ten years, if allowed to ex-
pand; and while the vital, essential
factor of success is paying market, what
one of these business men has given the
struggling fruit-growers one valuable OF
any other kind of suggestion to aid them
in this work of discovering and develop
ing new regions of trade?
$50 far as 1 can perceive, the Traffic
Association has for it's chief object the
securing of better rates of freight on com.
modities shipped to San Francisco from
the East for distribution throughout the
interior. If that association has turned
its thoughts or its energies to the prob
lem of increasing the prosperity of the
interior, have failed to observe it.
II hope that some good may come from
your persistent exposure of the lack OF
intelligent enterprise and business fore
sight of the San Francisco merchants.u

THE LATEST IN THE BEHRING
SEA MATTER.

1t is assumed at Washington that the
latest note of Lord Salisbury opens the
door to amicable settlement of the i'm
mediate issue with England concerning
the Behring Sea. This opinion is based
upon the suggestion of Lord Salisbury
that if the treaty for arbitration is ratified
by the United States, it having already
been approved by the British ParIia-
ment, then suspension of sealing, on
something of the basis of the agreement
of last year, shall be ordered, with the
supplemented understanding that the
nation against whom the arbitrator de-
cided shall pay such damages to the
other as the Board of Arbitration NAV
find.
We confess that this is not exactly
what we think the people demand. They
have expected that there would be abso-
Lutte suspension pending arbitration,
without any ENHANCEMENT of damages
being attached to the judgment of the is
sue to be arbitrated. They look for a
definite statement from England that.
pending arbitration, her sealers shall be
kept out of our marine territory. But
many have already sailed, and others are
daily departing for the seal grounds.
These will infiict serious damage before
they can be stopped. True, Lord Sails
bury says that all such have been noti-
and that they seal with the knowl-
edge that their operations might be
interdicted. But it is to be noted
that thirty sealers had departed be-
fore the notice issued, and know moth
ing of it. This at best was bad faith.
Pending the controversy England should
have forbidden the sealers to 90. pre-
cisely as the United States has done. in
the case of the American sealers. More
over, Lord Salisbury says that if the
treaty is ratified, modus, something
like" that of last year, will be agreed
to. But this is vague and too full of loop
holes of escape. Before anything irrev-
ocable is done, this something Hkev
proposition should be reduced to the
tangible and practicable.
The difficulty is that while we are
automatically fencing with England the
Canadian sealers will sweep the sea and
pick and choose, while Americans remain
outside, obedient to the Congressional
regulations for the sea. 1t may be, and
we confess that it looks very like it, that
Lord Salisbury is protracting this diplo-
matte discussion to enable the British
sealers to make one more clean tip. 1t
is serious charge to lay at the door of a
great nation, but in the light of the facts
that the British vessels have mostly fitted
out and sailed, and that it may be month
yet before the new agreements are settled.
