The morning call., 1892-08-06
THE FRESNO ROBBERY.

When the news Of the robbery Of the ex-
press-car at Fresno reached the officials of
tie express company no surprise was mani
tested. In the sardOnic language Of a re-
porter "they expect that sort of thing, and
it is only when a considerable length of
time passes without hodup that they are
surprised" This is rather a remarkable
state Of things to occur on a leading line OF
railroad running through one Of the most
prosperous and fairly we'll settled sections
of the State.
Since the beginning of 1889 there have
been five rObberies of the treasure-car on
the Southern Pacific line in the San Joaquin
Valley. They all occurred within a limited
area-the points where the robbers operated
being Pixiey, Goshen, Alila, Ceres and now
Fresno. Four Of the five attempts were
successful; the robbers got off with the
booty and have not been captured One Of
the Dalton boys, who committed the rob-
berry at Ceres, was caught, but escaped
after conviction and is now in Oklahoma at
his old work. In every case the railroad
and the express company put their detec-
tiVes on the trail of the robbers within
a few hours after the crime, but their pur-
suit was fruitless. Both on the west and on
the east side Of the plain through which the
railroad runs there are hiding places in the
noun tains to which it is difficult to track a
fugitive, especially if he has sympathizers
In the neighborhoOd who will supply him
with food.
TIE company has just taken off its service
from stage lines In Northeastern California
and Southeastern Oregon, assigning as a
reason for so doing that its losses by rob-
berries more than Offset the normal profits
Of the business. Every few months a stage
would be robbed and the treasure box cap
tured. When the rObber was caught Ii cost
as much 10 convict him as he had taken.
Nothing is so fatal to a State as the repu-
tation OF being the home Of unpublished
highway robbers. People do not want to
live in such place, much less to invest
capital there. If the San Joaquin Valley
to is fulfill its promise its people should see
to Il that highway robbers are caught aud
punished so severely that others shall take
warning by their example
The morning call., 1892-08-06

The morning call., 1892-08-06
THE WATER ROUTE.

The water route would solve the trans
portation question so far as it affects Cali
fornia IL local rates from San Francisco to
the interior were reasonable. Some Idea
OF the burdens we have endured NAV be
found in the fact that freight goes from
Kansas City to New York by rail, from New
York to San Francisco by water at $40
ton less freight charge than the railroad rate
from Kansas City to San Francisco. The
rate from Kansas City to New York is 50 40
per ton. while from Kansas City to San
Francisco this charge was S35. Freights
from New York TO San Francisco range
from S4 to IS per ton. AT the latter figure
the business is profitable. 1t is a curious
fact that the extOTIons of the Transcon-
tinental Association have driven shippers
to resort to discarded methods Of transporta-
ton. Steam was supposed at one time to
be an Improvement on the wind, and the
ran almost superseded steamships between
points that railroads could span. For a
time almost all our freight came overland.
The Iranscontnental Association bought
oil the only steamship line to New York.
and acted as If they thought they had put
iron bars across the sea route. But the
stone rejected by the builder Is now the
cornerstone of the structure Sailing
vessels doubling Cape Horn, as the pioneers
did 43 years ago, are now doing large part
OF the carrying trade between the Atlantic
and Pacific coasts. The adjustment of local
rates Is entirely within the power of the
people. No fagors need be asked of our
late masters A Legislature composed of
the right men may. In perfectly constitu-
tIonal manner. fix a maximum of rates
which no court can Interfere with without
proof that such rates are not fair compensa-
tion for the work performed
The morning call., 1892-08-06
HYDRAULIC MINING.

We notice that the Chronicle attacks "the
Senator from California" which we SUD-
pose means Mr. FELTON,. for Senator Stan
ford has not been in Washington for some
months past, and besides the Chronicle has
no complaints to make against him. Mr..
FELTON,, however. Is a candidate for re-
election TO the United States Senate. which
displeases our contemporary. Hydraulic
mining is matter Of considerable import
ance. and although Mr. Stanford as a rail-
road manager may not care particularly if
the rivers should fill up with drift, so as to
impede river navigation, our citizens may
DE Young. In order to obtain assistance
from the railroad company, may drift with
Mr. Stanford, but VIC scarcely believe he
will dare attack Mr.. FELTON, for striving to
have the hydraulic mining bill so arranged
as to take care of the inhabitants of Cali
tornla. There are few men in this State
with hackers in Europe who would be per-
1eetly willing to destroy millions of acres of
good farming lands for few grains of
gold, and besides this the hydraulic mining
business destroys ine timber lands in the
mountains
