AN INQUIRER wants to know why the
year 1900 will not be leap year. 1t is
because an extra day every four years
uses up too much time by forty-four
minutes and forty seconds, and conse-
quently it is necessary to drop three of
the centennial leap years in every four
centuries. A fuller explanation will be
given in the year 1000, which will be a
leap year, if attention is called to it.

NEW MEXICO.

There is a bill before the Senate for the
admis lou of New Mexico as State, and as
it has already passed the House its prospect
of becoming a law is good. The New Y DIRK
San, in an article which appears TO have
been inspired. suggests that it should be
amended so as to include Arizona. Were
this done. and the bill passed, the only Ter
ritories still remaining outside of the Union
would be Alaska, Utah, Oklahoma and the
Indian Territory.
4 State comprising the present Territories
OF New Mexico and Arizona would be
10000 square miles in size, only second TO
Texas and larger than California. 1t would
contain a population of about 203,000. 1t
would thus be larger than any other State
save one, and would contain more people
than Delaware, Idaho. Montana, Wyoming,
Nevada or North Dakota. It's possibilities
are more promising than those of most OF
these States. Besides containing mines of
great value. it has a vast stretch of fertile
agricultural land in which cereals and
fruits are raised. and enormous pasture
lands which are well stocked with cattle.
Its vast mines are undeyeloped, but they
are said TO be exceedingly promising. There
is no reason why it should not support a
large population. A notion prevails that it
is largely peopied by a foreign race. but
according to the census SO per cent of her
people were born on American soil; and
while the decimal increase of population
in the last decade was % per cent, the per-
eentage OF increased enrolment in the
schools was 2s3 per cent.
The objection arising from her small
population will probably be fatal, because
its rate of increase is so small.

EAILKDAD MATTERS.

The following remarks are copied from
communication from Thomas Magee which
was published in the Bulletin short time
since:
can't for the life of me see why the Southern
Pacific should stand In It's own light SO. They
are not even wise enough 10 make all they can
out of their own monopoly.
You can't pick up Denver. Colorado Springs
or salt Lake City paper without seeing dozen
new excursion rates 10 local points staring you In
lhe lace. The same Is true as 10 overland points
You read In the Denver papers of cbeap excur.
sions 10 Chicago and New York. The roads vie
with each other TO see which can get tie most
business In every direction.
am satisfied there is no more philanthropy
or virtue IN the managers OF the Eastern roads
than 10 hose of the Southern Pacific but they
nave competition aud competition means low
rates.
There is scarcely day in the week when the
newspapers of these places do not announce some
cheap excursion 10 one OF the local points. Buy n
Denver paper and see for yourself.
By these cheap excursion rates passengers are
carried for cent a mile. Imagine one going
10 San Jose for so cents or Sacramento for %
cents.
Now, don't say that railroads ought to carry
passengers for cent mile al all lines; but do
say the Southern Pacific would reap ample har.
vests by running occasional excursions at such
rates. Thousands OF people would travel then
where scores travel now.
Except on the 4th OF July ] have no remen,-
branee OF the southern Pacific ever giving a
cheap excursion rate anywhere though they
STAND In their own light by not doing so.
What Mr.. Magee says is what enters into
the minds of most thoughtful men relative
to California railways. The whole policy
Of the management of the Central and
Southern Pacific railroads is one Of inter
selhsbness. The men who control do not
appear to care for anything except dollars
and cents. If even tolerably liberal sys-
tenn OF passenger rates alone had been estab-
lished we should have hundreds of thou
sands more people than we have at the
present time in this State. The only lib
erality which our railroads have shown has
been toward bosses who have betrayed the
people and in substituting railroads and
steamers TO Cypress us. We may, however,
express the opinion that it is exceedingly
liberal toward few persons whom it can
push forward to help create discussions in
order TO keep business men from protect
ing themselves.

LABOR DIFFICULTIES.

We notice that member of Congress
suggests that while Congress may in
quirs into the merits OF the controversy
between the Carnegie manufacturing estsb-
lishments and the wOrkmen, it has no
power to Interfere with the wages TO
be paid woTkmen. This. OF course, is un-
derstood, but there are reasons why in
Quiry should be made as TO the merits of the
recent difficulty. One is with a view 10 con-
sidering whether the contracts which the
Government awards for the manufacture of
iron and steel for the construction of war
vessels should be given 10 those establish
ments. Another reason why Investigations
should be had is to see il plan cannot be
devised for the settlement of difficulties be-
tween employers and their workmen with
out resort to strikes or lockouts. 1t is as
competent to establish courts TO settle con-
trOversies respecting labor as ii is to settle
controversies arising out of any other bust
ness transaction.

PLATT PLACATED.

The report that President Harrison has
made peace with Senator Platt by promising
the boss the Federal patronage for New
York in the event of election will doubt
less be cOntradicted tomorrow. That
Platts animosity would yield 10 the gentle
influence of Federal patronage is aaite
probable, but the President is far too good
a politician, if not too good man. to make
peace On such terms. 1t would be an an
nouneement to the antiPlatt men of New
York that there was nothing in success for
them. The most successful politicians are
not those who throw over their friends to
placate their enemies. While Plat was do
ing all in his power TO defeat Mr.. Harrison at
Minneapolis, a portion of the New York
delegation was for him ali through the con-
test. Are these to be thrown aside for an
eleVenth-hour man?

FUSION.

Upon principle two political organizations
of kindred aims and purposes may unite to
overthrow a party more antagonistic to
both than either is to the other. For exam
pie. prohibition organization and a high
license organization may, without an undue
sacrifice of principle, combine against
party that advocates tile unrestricted sale
Of liquor. The prohibition and high-license
organizations have common purpose,
though they differ as 10 the methods OF ac-
comprising il. Bat 1t is not easy TO see
on what ground the Democratic party and
the Peoples party can combine. They
have nothing in common, unless it may be
desire to beat the Republicans. The can
didate of the Democratic party believes in
the single gold standard. The platform Of
the Peoples party calls for the free coinage
of gold and silver. The Democratic plat
form demands the repeal of the tax on the
circulation of State banks, while the plat
form Of the Peoples party looks upon an
unlimited issue of fiat money as an easy So
luuon of the financial problem. The New
York World is calling upon the Democrats
and the Peoples party men in the North
western States to pool their issues. 1t says
the Democrats cannot carry any of these
States alone but that the Democratic vote,
added to the Peoples party vote. may elect
the electoral ticket they both support.
The World does not point out the fact that
if a fusion ticket should be elected in sew
eral Of the Northwestern States the result
would be no choice of the electors and the
election of Mr.. Cleveland by the House.
There is no attempt 10 give reason why
the Peoples party should prefer the cleo
ton of Mr.. Cleveland TO The election of Mr..
Harrison. Than Mr.. Cleveland and Mr..
Whitney Of the Standard OIL Trust there are
no men in the country in more direct con-
fljct with the ayowed purpose of the PeO-
pies party. 1t may be admitted that the
PEOPLES party cannot hope to carry State
without the aid of the Democrats.
But why should il desire TO carry a State
knowing that the election of Democratic
President is the inevitable result? What
viii be gained by handing the Government
over TO the Standard OIL Trust, through the
election of men that trust has placed In
nomination?
The morning call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1878-1895, 1892-07-19

There Is abundant reason TO believe thar
the real leaders Of the Democratic party
are embarrassed at the extent of the bite
tie late national convention made at tie
free-trRde cherry. The convention did not
assemble with any intention Of declaring
for a tariff for revenue only. The platform
committee reported an admirably construct
ed resolution, which would have enabled
the Democratic newspaper organs and
speakers 10 claim TO be good pr0tecti0nists.
But 10 an evil hour the spirit of the men
who form ed the Confederate tariff platform
took possession of the convention and
actually made the convention declare pro-
lection unconstitutional. The more sa-
GacOus leaders OF the party now see their
mistake. The New YORK Times, although
a free-trade paper, intimates that the
tariff plank rushed through the convention
was the work of pl0tters Of mischief. The
plank finally allowed was not acceptable 10
Dir. Cleveland. 1t is true that some of his
supporters voted for il. but the Times init
mates that they did not know what they
were doing. The idea is now taking pos
session Of the wise wing Of the party that
The tariff for revenue plank can only result

90 for 3 Presidential candidate VINO stands
on a platform which in plain and unequiv-
ocal language declares protection 10 Ameri-
can labor unconstitutional Cleveland was
elected in 1884 on platform which admit
ted that duties should be imposed with g
view to the maintenance of industries
which protection had established. The
platform Of 1884 admitted the constitution
atty of imposing duties sufficient TO cover
the difference between the American and
European rates Of labor. The tariff plank
Of 1892 declares i! to be fundamental
principle of the Democratic party that the
Federal Government has no constitutional
power to enforce aud collect tariff duties
except for tie purpose Of revenue only"
The Democratic campaign of education has
come to this: The American laborer is to
be placed on the same footing with the
European or the Asiatic laborer, and the
one who can produce goods at the lowest
cost will hold the American market. Is it
possible that American laborers either in
the protected or so-calied unprotected in
dustries will vote party into power which
openly proposes TO reduce American wages
to the lowest Old World standard?

SAVED ITSELF.

The local organ of the Crimmins and
Kelly political firm tells how the Republican
party has saved itself. The method Of
salvation is somewhat remarkable. The
party appears to have saved itself BY con-
centrating all power in the hands of Grim
Minis and Kelly, who are to the Southern
Pacific Company what Buckley was two
years ago. Crimmins and Kelly will domi-
nate the county conventions. and place
before the people candidates named by the
Southern Pacific Company. In this way
has the local Republican party saved itself
Another such salvation would be snnihils-
ton. No party can possibly survive being
saved more than once by a surrender to the
Southern Pacific CompanY.
