A LINK BROKEN.

a link In the chain that held San Fran
cisco in bondage to the Southern Pacific
Company is broken. There is no longer a
Transcontinental Association, and with
its dissolution has gone the contract which
bound the Pacific Mail Steamship Company
to permit the association to dictate its rates
for carrying freight. The Transcontinen-
tai Association was killed easily. A few
clipper ships sailing round Cape Horn and
taking freight below railroad prices did the
job. The wonder is to many that an asso-
citation that could be killed so easily was
not killed before. And yet to those who are
well Informed as to the methods by which
the Southern Pacific has held our merchants
in thran the wonder is that the association
was killed at all. Most merchants have
been under the necessity of ordering GER
tain goods by rail. Perhaps three-fourths Of
their shipments might come by clipper
ships, but the other fourth would be of goods
in the moving of which time was of greater
value than the difference in cost between
the two routes. But the Southern Pacific
has never recognized the right of merchant
to ship part Of his goods by one route and
part by another. In some cases shippers
have been required TO sign contracts to shin
all their goods by rail. and In others dis
elimination in charges has rendered water
shipments improbable. But in time clipper
ships were organized and enough slippers
enlisted in their support to insure their
profitable existence. This done the subsidy
to the Pacific Mail ceased to be of advantage
TO the Southern Pacific, since rates could mo
longer be main ia ined.
The morning call., 1892-11-18

voters can generally read numbers and
there will be little difficulty in ascertaining
the number Of a candidate the voter desires
to cast his ballot for. The illiterate clause
may have been incorporated into the law
for either OF two purposes-it may have
been through an honest purpose not to dis
franchise man because of illiteracy, and 1t
may have been TO open way for an cleo
ton officer to do the most of the voting.
The clause is likely to do more harm than
coed. If an election officer may stamp bal
lots for every would-be vote-seller who will
say that lie cannot read ballot, the readi-
est and cheapest way of cheating in cleo
tions VIII have been discovered. Any pro-
vision in the constitution designed to pro-
tect illIterate voters from a denial of the
right to vote on account of such illiteracy
may be covered by q requirement that the
names and numbers Of candidates should be
submitted in advance to all voters who
could not sign the register. The illiterate
voter may in this way learn what number
designates certain candidate aud may pre-
pare his ballot in secrecy from the num-
bers. Tbs illiterate dodge must not be
allowed to work

A MAJORITY VOTE.

The Democrats have for two or three days
been claiming that Mr.. Cleveland had re-
eeived majority of all the votes east at the
recent election. Whether or not the Weaver
and Prohibition votes will make up the diff
ference between the aggregate Tor Cleye-
land and that for Harrison cannot at pres
ent be determined, but before a Democratic
candidate for President can fairly claim to
be the choice Of more than half the voters,
the legal voters Of the South must be pro-
tected 10 the exercise of their right to vote.

ALL IN OLD OAK.
Leeds New Quarters Are Very Pref

tiIy Fitted Up.
When Manager Leeds of the California
Traffic Association returns on the 1st prox.,
be will find awaiting him much pleasanter
quarters than be left behind.
The offices of the association were moved
yesterday from the Welsh argo Bank build
ing to the new and handsome structure at
212 and 214 Pine street.
While these offices are located on the fifth
floor and consequently nearer heaven than
the old ones they are more accessible by
reason OF the fact that the elevator is much
faster.
Turning sharp round to the left from the
elevator the main Office is reached, where
the secretary and his clerks will hold forth,
This room has been furnished with the
material used in the SansOme-street build
Ing, which has been remodeled and reno

Adjoining this ia the private office OF

conveniently arranged while in the rear is
another room that is to be used for consul
tations.
All the furniture is in old oak. desks.
chairs and tables, and no necessary ex-
pense has been spared. though no money
has been wasted.
AS the Offices front on the north side of
Pine street they have plenty Of sun and
light, and especially the advantage of the
morning sun.
Gas and incandescent lights with very
handsome chandeliers have both been put
In, and each room has bell and an anunci-
ator connecting with the ground floor en-
trance.
A new and handsome crimson Turkish
carpet has been laid down in the consulta-
tion-room, and the carpet formerly laid down
In Mr.. Leeds old Office. after being cleaned,

platform calls for a tariff for revenue only.

For the Love of a Child

A florist planted bed of geraniums In
Mr.. John WarringtoD's yard. His little
nye-year-oid was so delighted with their
beauty that she sat among them all dev
pulling up the plants and breaking off the
flowers. She was supremacy happy. She
desisted only when her father came homo
to take her on drive. Seeing the flowers
nprooted. he told the florist to replant them.
