A TASTE OF FREE TRADE ENOUGH

A local free trade contemporary has dis
covered some Republican testimony show
ing the benefits of free trade among the
States. It advances the old argument that
if free trade among the States is benefit
free trade among all nations would be
still greater benefit. The protectionst re-
CARDS the nation as family. The pur-
pose of its Government should be to main
tain the highest possible standard of
prosperity In comparison to other coun-
tries. American statesmen are not called
upon to legislate for Asiatics or Europeans.
It is our duty TO do the best we can for our
own. Being a comparatively new nation,
with large area of territory in propor-
ton to population, we nave established
higher rates of wages in this country than
prevail in any other. The same condi-
tiOns apply to all the family of States.
But we cannot preserve these conditions
in competition with the whole world. II
barriers upon trade and immigration are
removed the products of the cheaper
nations will pour in and break prices
down to their level. The process of estab-
fishing an industrial level is much like
that OF connecting a larger and a smaller
body OF water by artificial means. The
time required to effect common level will
depend upon the size of the artificial con-
nectiOn. Free trade would not reduce the
United States to the European labor level
in month or year. but it would do so
in the end. Fortunately SO far in our his
tory taste of free trade has been suffi-
cient for one generation. A little expert
ence prepares the public for change of

PRESIDENT HYDE's PROTEST.

1t is quite natural that the president of
the Board of Education should protest
against any reduction of the estimates that
its Finance Committee has made OF the
boards financial necessities The Imme-
diate representatives OF the other Depart
ments will come before the Finance Com
mittee OF the Board of Supervisors and
each department will show that it needs
all it las asked for. But no one of them
Will get all it has asked for. and, conse-
quently, will be compelled to 90 the best
it can with less. The Board of Education
has within a few years advanced from
SS50,000 year to something over mil
lion. During this period the number of
children attending the public schools has
not materially increased. From 1885 to
1891 there was falling IF. but the last
TWO years has shown an Improvement in
attendance. But why is S1,17S, GOO needed
now to 10 about what was done in 1885
for S650,000? There is no desire in any
quarter TO withhold from the School De-
partment money which it really needs.
But these are dull times for workers IN
other lines of industry, and taxpayers feel
that waste anywhere is criminal. The
School Directors will find, we think, that
if they set about their task like business
men they can keep up the present rates of
salaries with considerable less money than
has been asked for. The machinery ap-

LUKE q. SRESOVICH.
A Pioneer in the Growth and Ham
ding of Fruits.

Luke q. SresOyich, the well-known fruit
merchant at 555-557 Sansome street, enjoys
the distinction or having been the pioneer
In an Industry which has develOl ed far
greater wealth and more permanent advan-
tages to the State than was ever drawn
from the mines. Mr.. Sresovich started
twenty-fOur years ago and has built up
business that is wonderful in extent and
volume. He was the first to engage in the
eXportation OF fruit from California to
Australia, Mexico and the Eastern States,
which he began twenty years ago and still
continues In increasing amounts.
In the early days of the orange industry
in Southern California the shipments TO
this city were entirely controlled by Mr..
SreS0ylcb, who, upon the completion of
the railroad, made the first shipments TO
the East, which were the forerunner of
that golden stream which is flowing in
ever increasing proportions from year to
year aud bringing wealth and prosperity
TO that portion of the State.
Mr. Sresovich was also the first to i'm
port bananas to this coast from the Sand
wlch Islands, establishing his own planta-
tions and sending agents 20 ship them here.
The wealth and prosperity of the Paiaro
Valley, now established on such enduring
foundations. is largely due to Mr. Sreso-
vichs efforts of sixteen years ago to en-
courage the growth of fruit. He early rec
ogElZed the adaptabiliiy of that location
Tor fruit-raising and by his own example
and encouragement to others fostered the
industry which has raised the Pajaro dis
trlct to its present envable position
California. by its accessibility 10 the
tropical Pacific Islands, early developed
an industry in the cOcoanut and lis prod
ucts, and Mr. Sresovich was the first 10
enter upon the manufacture of desiccated
and SHREDDED cOcoanut, and has developed
an immense business in this branch. The
"PIOneer' and ''Sresovich" brands enjoy
wide popularity and are in use in the
leading hotels in the country. Among
families the popularity of these brands is
ever increasing. Mr.. Sresovich was also
the first to import Mexican lines The
business he does in this fruit is enormous.

GOING EAST.

About four thousand more people went
East in May than came West This fact
should be borne in mind when considering
the condition of business in this State.
These four thousand people If at home
would occupy 500 houses and distribute in
the course of the month not less than $780,
000 For time the business community is
deprived of a considerable proportion of
its ordinary profit. The four thousand
Californians that are temporarily absent
will not expend less than S1,000,0 000 This
is not referred to as a mis- fortune, but as a
condition. which at the present time in
tens fes the prevailing dullness 1t is not
probable that the tide of migration will
be against us more than month or two
longer. In the autumn the movement will
be westward. A proportion of Eastern
people who visit the fair will come on to
California. II is not impro bable that when
December comes the balance will be largely
in our favor. In the end the Worlds Fair
may prove good thing for California, but
just at present we are considerably out of
pocket.

They are already settling matters of
precedence when the Duke of York is
married. Without such regulations ladies
would never get through doorways. and
monaEchs would have very turbulent as

and Spanish. There etiquette is reduced

and persons distinguished in their career
have TO use the back door great deal
when they go to palaces. 1t is. perhaps,
not as bad as in the time of Charles the
Fifth. Two ladies asked the Emperor to
arbitrate on their claims to precedence
and he settled the point by directing that
the biggest fool should go first.
Now Chicago has won its contention for
Sunday opening Chief Justice Fuller and
two other Judges have overruled the de-
cision of the Federal Circuit Court, issuing
an injunction. and the case has been sent
back TO the court for a reversal of its
action. The gates of the exhibition will
now be open without question. 1t will
probably make little difference i'll the
moral regeneration of the Windy City. but
1t will make a mighty impression on the
ducats in the treasury.
The discovery by the San Francisco Fire
Department of q large building in which
oil is fed into lamps by gravitation from a
tank on the roof is well calculated to ap-
pail a conservative mind. Such structure

ploslOns might resemble a cannonade. As
there is 10 violation of law in This struc-
tural ingenuity the Insurance companies

as highly as himself. But while the one
will be constantly using his knowledge
the other will be engaged in duties that
will not call her knowledge into action.
That the higher education broadens the
mental horizon and renders life more at
tractive will be admitted; but that women
generally make the use of it that men
do, does not seem possible. The more
education prepares either men or women
for the duties that Will fall to them the
more happiness it will confer. As the

tion with most of us, that education is the
most valuable which best assists us to per-

SCARCITY OF HELP.

New York appears TO be sorely pressed
for domestic help. This year servants are
ptionaily difficult to obtain, no matter
what wages are offered. 1t does not seem
to be a question of wages so much as a
species of summer fever tn leave New
Y York for the country or for Chicago. The
agencies are beseged with applications
from housewives, and those who only keep
a single general servant have much trouble
in procuring the services of any one Sew
eral causes are cited in explanation. The
exhibition at Chicago has induced no.
madic feeling. Every one wants to 60
there. partly to see the sights, but also
with the lively hope of earning far more
money than is obtainaDle in the Empire
City. Then the country hotels and board
ing-houses are drawing many women and
girls TO them as mattresses, who have the
inducement held out of profting by tips
This is an unusual migration, as servants
ordinarily are averse to accepting situa-
tionS in the country or small cities, but
hotel and clearinghouse proprietors pre-
fer them this year owing to a dread of
strikes among male walters. A third cause
is found in the very stringent regulations
now applied to immigrants, some of whom
are obliged to answer more questions than
they desire. The housewife of New York
has to do her own work in many cases
where servant would be kept if one
could be found, and from lack of assist
ance many families will find it rather diff
cult 70 take holiday. No one can blame
q servant for seeking the highest wages
and the best places. The demand for help
is greater than the supply. and naturally
remuneration takes an upward turn. As
long as servant is in no danger of having
TO wait long for situation, the tendency

vail. Those who have good servants
should study the art of how to keen them

GOSSIP OF THE HOTELS.

In the party of twenty-three German tourists
now at the Palace Hotel there are Two doctors,
DIR. Schlppe aud DR.. Fuller. Neither are phys
icans. for In Germany the prefix doctor stands
for most anything in the realms OF science,
literature and art. DR.. Scbippe, by the way, Is
botanst and scientist OF no small repute.
while DR.. Fuller is philosopher, pure and
simple.
In the same party OF German tourists at the
Palace are five students. fresh from the Heidel-
burl University. Mark Twain has taught us
