A CONFESSION or WEAKNESS.

The Third-street firm OF political bosses
are exhausting their strength in efforts to
prevent the Non -Partisans having their
name at the head of their candidates in
the official ticket. The effort will fail, but
it shows the weakness of the Third-street
firm. Why do they object TO the construc-
ton Of law which gives the Non-Partisans
an even show with other parties? The OBJ
vious reason is that they fear the Non-Par-
tisans will win with an even chance. Sec
Tetary of State Waite says respecting the
construction to be given the law:
1t seems TO me that the new ballot law im-
poses sufficient hardship upon any new party
seeking recognition, in that IL requires Two per
centum more petltioning electors to obtain such
recognition than an old party obtained votes at
preceding election, besides the greater labor Of
obtaining them upon paper.
This conclusion is reasonable. The law
throws certain obstacles in the way of the
organization of new party and may be
supposed when these obstacles are over
come TO recognize the new party as entitled
to equal consideration In the official ballot
with any other party. When party or a
faction of a party is afraid to give oppo-
nents an even show at the polls, it con-
fesses its own weakness.

Is SAN FRANCISCO ASLEEP

The Record Union las considerable to
say of late in reference TO ''the natural
right OF San Francisco to a certain trade
area" The CALL is aware that the Record
Union must work for its masters; hence 1t
will urge tha; San Francisco las no natural
rights. We should have none If we did not
assert them. This city and State have been
plundered, as our readers very we'll know,
TO an unparalleled extent We have not
only had to pay fully 20 per cent more on
an average for every pound OF freight
which has passed over the Central and
Southern Pacific railroads than the service
was worth for several years past. but our
entire political system has been debauched
NY Jfiv use VI otiUu men DuUhfcy, hefiy,
Crmmins and company Our railroad
manipulators have hired railroads, steam
ers, ETC., to demand excessive freight rates
en- merchandise coming 10 or going from
San Francisco, while they have furnished
much lower rates TO cities and towns north
of us. In this way business has been de-
pressed in California, while it has been
enc ncouTaged In cities and towns north of US.
Was there ever an independent people so
utterly trod upon ana its business so pros
tTated as is that of this city and State? And
Goes not every person of sense know that If
we were TO permit such determinations TO
60 on against us for a while longer San
Francisco would soon be vastly behind the
cities located in Oregon and Washington,
and having but few natural advantages in
comparison to ours?

AMERICAN DOCTRINE.

A dispatch comes from La Guayra, Ven-
ezuela, which says, United States Minister
Scruggs has sent formal demand 10 the
Venezuelan capital for the return of the
six refugees taken from the Caracas some
time ago and now in The hands of General
Urdoveta." A dispatch TO this effect has
been expected for some time. When ref
ugee was killed on board an American
steamer in South American waters couple
of years ago the American State Depart
ment laid down the law that an American
steamer in foreign port is not subject To
search for political offenders. The caracas
case is a paraIleI with the BaTrundIa case,
evcent in the fact that the refugee was
killed in the latter case but surrendered in
,bo former. The absolute necessity OF es-
tsbIishing some such doctrine is demon
strated by the fact that there is now no
Government in Venezuela to answer the de-
mands of the American Minister. Ii the
right of search for political refugees on
American steamers was admitted the party
which at the moment might be in power
would make the deck of an American yeS-
sci the scene of war. But no matter how
stable Government may be foreign YES
sci should not be considered as local terri
tory. Ii is generally considered that war
vessel carries into foreign port the law
of its flag. but that merchantmen and pas
senger vessels are more ameDable to the
law of the port. The maintenance of the
doctrine advanced will not relieve persons
charged with common crimes from arrest
on board merchantmen and passenger yes-
selS The law OF the flag cannot be invoked
for the protection of such persons from the
fact that no flag aims TO protect criminals
In respect to political refugees the crime
consists in being on the losing side at the
time. The tables may be turned the next
day, but if they are not, persons guilty of
no other offense than an error OF judgment
in matters Of politics should not be treated
as common criminals. 1t is now said that
the six refugees taken from the steamer
Caracas are in the hands Of Dictator
Urdoyela. Their flight to an American
vessel did them no good. The long arm of
the military dictator reached them on an
American deck or elsewhere. II would
seem that the American Government is not
entirely without blame in the matter. With
naval vessels stationed at summer resorts
On the Atlantic Coast there does not seem
to have been one available for service In
the only port in the world in which war
was raging The people want navy, but
they want that it should be placed where il
will do The most good.

THE PRICE OF LABOR.

Mr.. Robert Sherwood Of this city. in writ
ing from Vienna, the capital OF Austria,
under date OF September 3. speaks thus of
the price Of labor in Austria:
1t should be remembered that the cost of labor
and building materials Is not one-fOurth what
they would be In San Francisco. / have watched
from my bedroom window at Prague mechanics
beginning Work at o'clock A. NJ, and have seen
them leave on at p. NJ, taking one hour at noon
for rest and dinner Their wages average. for
mechanics, 70 cents a day, and for laborers
about 40 cents OF our money. / hope we shall
never see the day when labor VIII be so poorly
rewarded In the United States. Without the pol.
icy OF protection TO the American mechanic it
will follow inevitably that the competition OF
European cheap labor Will bring our workers to
the same level that the ffee-traders so ardently
advocate.
With such facts as the above accessible at
all times in the United States, there are per-
sons who actually try to deceive workmen
as to the wages of workmen In foreign
couptrips

WHOM THE GODS WOULD DEsrRo,

There is good deal OF philosophy in the
old saying "Whom the gods would destroy
they first make mad" 1t supposes an in
finite power working in the minds of mortals
in way TO compass their downfall by their
own acts. In a smail-a very small-way
the actions of the Third-street bosses illus
trates the proverb. What could be more
utterly stupid than in calling together a
convention composed in large part of City
Hall employes-but in smaller part OF men
whose names DO not figure in the directory? {?
Can the Kelly crowd imagine that San
Francisco will elect ticket emanating
from such source? Can they delude
themselves for a moment with the hope that
loyalty to the Republican party will induce
a large number of Republicans TO iDdorse
the work of a convention the members Of
which nominated each other for all the
Offices in sight? Do these blind leaders
think that they can hold Republicans to the
local ticket by threats to bolt the national
ticket if support TO the local ticket is with
held? The voters may ask who are the
men who make the support of the local
machine test of RepublicanisIn? What
service has Kelly, Crimmins or De Young
rend dered the Republican party? When has
the organ of the Thrd-street ring made
sacrifice in support of the party? Was it in
1886 when the organ in covert way joined
hands with the Examiner to elect a Demo
cratic Senator?
The people have one thing to be thankful
for: the Kelly crowd threw off all Disguise.
Their purpose and character could not have
been more unmistakably described If they
had called themselves the Boodlers' Conyen-
ton,

HOW 1T WORKS.

A local free-trade contempora ry is trying
to make women believe that the prices of
dry goods are higher than before the McKin-
ley tariff bill wac passed. The Democrats
won one Congress on that scare, and they
seem to have an impression that it will work
second time. But all women know that
the things they buy the most of are cheaper
now than they were two years ago. The
aiHerenee is that mahy kinds of goods which
were Imported under the old tariff are made
al nome under the new. 1t is about tie
same with women's goods as with mems.
III woman insists upon having foreign
made garment she may have to pay a little
more Tor II than under the old tariff. But
dress goods, bonnets. boots, underwear and

trimmings generally. good enough and styl-
ish enough for forty-nine women out 0f
fifty, can be purchased as oheaply now as
before the present tariff went into effect.
Occasionally men of free-trade prociivitles
growl because imported bit cigars are not
of so good quality now as under the OLD
tariff. But the fact that they are not has so
stimulated home manufacturers that as good
domestic cigars as the imported article are
offered now at bit apiece. There is no
great injustice in law which compels rich
people who insist upon having foreign-made
goods to contribute to the expense OF sup
porting the Government The middle and
poorer classes are much more numerous
than the very rich.

government which was not corrupt to its
core If we except the present one. We all
know that nearly everything could be
bought which our Supervisors were able to
lay their hands upon. Are the Inhabitants
of San Francisco to go on indefinitely in
this way? Are we TO become the byword
of intelligent people everywhere? Our
Supervisors have been selected by men the
public would not dare TO trust with their
property. So have our Sheriffs, our County
CLERKS and our Judges. What comment
this is upon free government. And the
corruption. which THE CALL believes was
never greater nor more unblushing than it
is at present, scarcely attracts public notice.
What are we coming to?
