EDITORIAL oFrICE-sEEKINe.

We are very sorry that our friend Dargis
of the Oakland Tribune has got such an
itching for office. Four years ago he was
elected to the State Senate, and having got
into politics it appears that he is charged
with intriguing, much as our California poll
ticia3s generally have done for years past.
The truth is, men running newspapers have
no business in Office. If they want offices
they should keep out Of the newspaper busi-
ness. We have seldom or never known an
editor who sought Office who did not lose
influence, and thus become TO a consider
able extent useless for the public interest.
Dargie and De Young are both said 10 be
intriguing for Office, and it is to be hoped
that the public will stamp out tAe aspira-
ti0ns of both. These persons claim TO be
Republicans, but they are really injuring
the prospects of the Republican party.
One of the men is exciting the prejudice
which his acts have heretofore brought
upon himself, but they will now 10 a con-
siderable extent be turned against the
party. The other. Mr.. Dargie, is young
man who has good pros pects if he will stop
intriguing for Office. He and his brother
have newspaper which needs all they can
do for H. What reputation hIr, Dargie has
made did not come from office-Seeking In
deed, he has lost seriously by consenting 10
run for an office. So far as offices are con-
cerned, neither Dargie nor DE Young has
any right to pull down the party to crafty
his tchings for Office.

A WORD TO THE WISE.

The public generally without doubt will
bear in mind that all the gossip that masses
over the wires about the Sullivan C0rbett
prize feht is not OF disnterested charac-
ter. Fluctuations in the rates Of premium
on one or discount on the other afford pro-
feSsional bettors their chance for profit. If,
for example, Sullivan stock could be put up
10 two 10 one one day, and il something
should be reported as happening to send
Corbett stock up few points the next. The
professional bettor might make handsome
turn without risking a dollar. There has
been apparently a studied purpose on the
part of one of our morning contemporaries to
cause fluctuations in priZe-hght stock. 1t has
had its Sullivan DAYS and lis COrbett days.
Experts send in such widely different
opinions on the chances of the two men
that TO a discerning reader these opinions
cease to have value. But an occasional
reader of the paper, seeing the opinion Of
an expert in print, might think there was
something in it. II there was no chance to
win money on the event, men who really
know something about prize-ighters would
have something like standard of opinion.
One OF the fay0rite means Of influencing
betting is varying accounts Of the respective
conditions of the two men. Accordingly
one day Sullivan Is represented as in the
pink of condition, and day or two later
something is the matter. COrbett feels "out
of sight" ons day, and looks thin and worn
the next. In most cases these are misrepre-
sentations to Influence the portion of the

CHANGES IN AKMOR PLATES.

Some days ago the New York Herald
made an attack on the Navy DEPARTMENT
for making certain changes in the shape of
armor plates intended for the new ships of
the navy. The subject is one upon which
expert opinion only has value. AS the
eyes of the whole country are directed to
the new ships now under process of con-
structi0n it is fair to assume that no changes
would be made that the department did not
consider an Improvement. Commodore
F0lser has submitted the following, which
seems plausible explain alton:
a fact In relation TO this subject which appears
10 have escaped attention is that the original
specifications for armor called for plates with
single curves and that tho double curve was
known by neither the department nor the armor
contractors TO be desired unlil after proposals
sued. AS the prices for which the plates were
TO be made by The contractors were based upon
the original specifications, which called for but
one curve in the plates The contractors felt that
they were fully justified In saying that they
could sot make an additional curve In the plates
without additional compensation and extension
OF time. With reference 10 the matter OF ex-
pense IL Is a fact that Il would have cost Tie
Government 100000 10 hays the additional
curve put into all the plates By adheflng 20 The
original idea Ia regard 10 the curve M these
plates the Government saved THIS amount OF
money.

THE FUTURE OF SILVER.

A problem much more d ;flicult OF solution
than any involved IN the theory OF protee-
ton to bome industries lies in the CONNER
cial separation of gold and silver. AT the
present time the discount on silver, as
measured by gold, is a little more than 30
per cent There is. unfortunately, no pres
ent prospect of turn for the better. Ma
tions which have been practically on tie
silver standard are now agitating the ques-
tion whether it would not be we'll to get
in financial harmony with the leading conf
mercial nations Of the world. Should such
movement become at all general there is
no limit to be placed on the probable depre-
citation of the white metal. The question
then arises, if the world can do without sill
yer. or with the comparatively small
amount of silver that would be used as
token money? 1t should be borne in
mind that there is more silver money in the
world than gold money. The difference is
not great, but it Is on the silver side. What,
then, would be the natural consequence OF a
general movement to demonetiZe silver?
More than SIS. .0O0. 900, 600 of silver no " serves.
with less amount of gold, to constitute
measure of vaueS for commodities. 1t is
simply a mathematical proposition that the
withdrawal of any considerable portion of
the money which constitutes the measure of
values, without a corresponding withdrawal
of commodities, must cause an advance in
the purchasing power of money equal to
the proportion of the amount withdrawn to
the whole. In other words. IL one-third of
the worlds stock of money is destroyed, and
the amount of commodities TO be valued re-
mains the same, prices will go down one
third. Can financial institutions withstand
this shrinkage in values? 1t must be re-
membeTed that the credit of the Bank of
England. the Bank of France or the treas
ury Of the United States depends upon
belief on The part of the public that their
several Obligations will be honored Let
this belief be shaken and there is not
financial Institution in the world that will
not shake in consequence. What statesmen
and more especially fnanciers have TO con-
slider is the way and means to prevent the
further demonetization of silver. The
proposition entertained by some Americans
that free coinage of silver by this country
would raise silver TO its former ratio to gold
is defective in this: the legislation that
caused the depreciation of silver was inter-
national in scope, while the remedy is linn
tied to the action Of a single nation. The
United States may join the silver standard
nations. but there is no ground for the as
sumption that the United States can undo
singe-handed the work all Europe has COM
bined in doing. The Bankers Association
now in session in this city will doubtless
give the silver problem considerable atten-
ton. The public VIII be pleased to know
if the association realizes the magnitude of
the question. and il so. if it has considered
a reasonable solution.

JOINT, DEBATES.

There has been@dificulty in other States

details Of a. j0tnt debate. One Of the first
couditi0ns-is that, the equities shall be
observed. FhedebateTs should be as nearly

party would: care TO withdraw a popular
speske I, from the general canvass TO waste

ocratie platform, either of which might ex-
haust the time allottsd the speakers. One
is the declaration that protection is unc0n-

The constitutional argument would not
necessarily touch anon the real merits Of the
tariff question. Mr. White. for example
could talk for two hours to show that the
constitution did not in so many words au-
tboriZe Congress to impose duties to foster
American manufactures. Mr.. Estes could
reply thar such authority was given under
the general welfare clause and cite the acts
OF several Con crosses In suppoTtof his pO-
sitioR. The discussion that might be the
most useful would perhaps take the kinder

more convincing than any possible display
in the way Of thsOrizing. What have been
the results in tariff periods and the results
in tariff for revenue periods? What has
been the effect of protection. both on
protected industries and on industries

The Record Union is not pleased with the
comments Of The CALL in respect to rail-

be, for the two newspapers are catering for
entirely different interests. The Record
Union tries to make the Inhabitants of
California believe it is perfectly legitimate
for the Central and Southern Pacific rail-
road managers TO make enormous fortunes
out of a down-trodden people-that it Is
an honest transaction to hire other rail-
roads. steamers and even sailing vessels to
put up the price Of freights upon the
citizens of this State, while THE CALL is
utterly opposed to such proceeding. The
CALL demands fair freight and rates
upon all railroads, and nothing more. The
