DEATH OF PRESIDENT HAYES.

The death of Ex-President Hayes re-
moves an American citizen who houored
the title. He made safe, careful and
painstaking President, and administered
the affairs of the nation with conscientious
regard for his duty to the whole people.
1t is by no means to be taken as signif-
cant of greater signal ability that one
mans administration of trust is more
brilliant than that of another. The one
may have only placid waters in which to
steer, the other meet with constant gales;
yet the former, if brought to the test of
the graver conditions, might prove even
the more capable executive.
President Hayes administration was
during an era of profound peace and
when no grayely disturbing questions
tried the nation. 1t came long enough
after the war to make the friction of recon
struction measures less felt, and the
financial problems of the nation less try
ing than at an earlier period.
In whatever position he assumed Pres
ident Hayes manifested strong will pow
er, positiveness and clearness of judg-
ment and determination of purpose, such
as distinguished him in the field, where
he developed high military capacity and
won the distinction of being one of the
most daring and courageous of our gen
erals.
AS Governor of Ohio three several
times General Hayes won the regard of a
people who had examples in plenty of
very high characters by which to meas
ure him. His gubernatorial administra-
tions in Ohio have never been surpassed
in that State for excellence and con-
science.
President Hayes was thorough Amer
ican, patriot in the best sense; a product
of our institutions of which the nation is
proud. Not great man in the common
meaning of the term; not by any means
brilliant man; not indeed to be rated
with foremost statesmen; but clear
sighted, clean-souled, patriotic, upright
American of legislative skill and expert
ence, and soldier who proved by his
deeds the genuineness of his love for his
country and his capacity to command.

CHICAGO FRUIT MARKET
An Open Market Allowed Until tn
First of May.

An Open Market Allowed Until the
First of May.
E. r. Nichols & co. of Chicago are
sending out the following circular letter
which may be of interest to those en-
gagged in the fruit business in this State:
"At meeting of the Fruit Buyers AS
sociation held last evening it was de-
cided to allow the Adams u Lewis Auc-
ton Company, and the Chicago Fruit
Auction Company. to open their doors
to all, Tor the present, or until May Ist,
when California deciduous fruit begins to
arrive.
The above has peculiar significance
10 the California fruit growers, jnasmuch
as the Fruit Buyers Association will not
permit their members to buy at an open
auction after May lst, their idea, no
doubt, being that by making the auction
companies sell to the association mem
bers only, it will reduce the number of
buyers from $50 or 2G0 to a comparative
rev members Of the association who at
tend sales. This represents the begin
nlng OF the end of vigorous warfare on
the part OF the association against Il. II.
Nichols IL Co., and the South Water
Street Fruit and Produce Auction Com
pany, extending back to last July, at
which time Z. r. Nichols q Co. organ
lied the South Water-Street Fruit and
GfOuuce Auction Company, and began
selling TO all without regard to member
ship in any association. At that time the
ASSOCIATION gave it out that their men,
bers would not be allowed to buy at the
South Water-Street Auction Company's
sales. and with good reason to them, as
the bidding was not confined to a COM
parative few as at the other auctions,
controlled by the association, and they
hoped by this method Of boycotting the
South Water-Street Fruit and Produce
Auction Company to make them come
under the control of the association. But,
as one of the members Of the association
Tan otfieer) expressed it last evening, the
South Water-Street Auction Company
has a pudding while the others were
doing nothing, thus virtually admitting
that the open auctions, as conducted by
the South Water-Street Fruit and Pro-
duce Auction Company, was the only
correct method OF conducting an auc-
ton.
AS matters now stand the South Wa
ter-Street Fruit and Produce Auction
Company is open to all, and not con-
trolled by an association, its bylaws ex-
pressly stating that their sales must be
open to all, , and il would be we'll tor the
fruit shippers TO remember this"

store, or to make visit. Over the good
road he can make the same distance in
half an hour, with a large reduction in
wear and tear upon vehicles and horse
flesh and render the trip infinitely more
desirable and pleasurable, by reason of
its increased comfort, and the saving in
time.
Professor Lewis NJ. Haupt, of the Uni
yersity of Pennsylvania, says that in
England it is estimated that the mere
saving in cost by reducing roads to such
a condition that three horses can do the
work of four, effects an annual economy
Of Sl0o,o00,000. In Illinois it costs more
than S15,000,000 year more to haul farm
products out than if the roads were i'm
proved at a cost of 1000, 900. So that in
three years the saying would pay the
cost. Another consideration we have up
to this point ignored, and that is the
augmented value Of lands accessible by
good roads. In Pennsylvania Professor
Haupt estimates this in the best roaded
sections to be from $50 an acre upward.
The actual cost of good road is to be
determined by its width, the character of
the soil, the nearness of material for sub
structure and surfacing and the ease or
difficulty of draining. 1t would prob
ably cost in California, on the average,
from 5000 to 81, 900 mile to make first
class. enduring well-drained road so
smooth that not even that pestiferous
nuisance the round gravel stone, which
is hindrance and destroyer of surface,
shall appear upon it.
1t may be remarked in passing that the
greatest obstacle now presenting to the
extension of the free delivery postal sys-
tenn into rural parts, is officially reported
by the Postoffice Department to be the
uniformly bad roads of the United States.
Indeed the Postmaster General reports
that rural postal delivery must be post
poned until wagon-road systems are so
improved that the Government will be
justified in establishing it.

SENATOR WHITE.

Hon. Stephen M. White has been
elected United States Senator from Cali
fornia. We believe Mr.. White has made
an open, fair fight for the place, in the di-
rection of laudabIe ambition, such as
inspires the patriotic American.
The State is, therefore, to be congratu-
lated upon the honesty of the method
pursued in this election, and in the pro-
motion of an able and honest man, who
is representative Californian and ma
tive of the soil. In his legislative and
political career Mr.. White has proved
himself to be an able debater, a graceful
and eloquent speaker, and man of clear
perception and courageous purpose. That
he will bring to the high Office with
which he has been intrusted the aeumen
and intelligence Of good legal mind, and
the patriotic ambition of a devoted friend
of the commonwealth, is certain. He de-
serves, therefore. the support and conf-
dence of the people, and that generous
and manly commendation that goes so far
in upholding the hands of representa-
tive Of the State.
The record-union., 1893-01-19
WHAT DO T1IEY cosrs

The question is put to us by a respected
rural correspondent, "What do the good
roads you advocate cost?" Nopositive an
swer can be given since so much depends
upon local conditions. But this general
reply is easily substantiated.
Given land that is reckoned good, that
produces well, that is related by road to
market town, that must send its pro-
duce out and bring its supplies in on
wheels. If it is accessible by bad road
only, the cost of a good road is precisely
the difference between the cost ofthe bad
road to that farm, and the additional
profit that will result from the cost OF
the good road up the time the construc-
ton Of the latter is paid for. Then the
cost of the good road becomes to the farm
new factor, as much less in money out
put as maintenance of the new road is
less than maintenance of the bad road.
In addition the new gain the augmented
profit in producing and the saving in
bringing in supplies by reason of the
good road, begins Immediately on its
completion to discharge original cost OF
the improved road. When that is paid
of wholly, the good road becomes a
farm, since the benefits will always be
largely in excess of the cost of mainten-
ance.
Let us suppose farm of 500 acres to be
accessible by bad road from market and
that it requires four horses to draw over
1t given load in two hours. Let US
suppose that it cost the farm s. an acre to
construct the bad road originally, and
that to convert it into good road will
cost IS an acre; but that over the latter
the same load can be drawn by two
horses in one hour; that it cost % cents an
acre per annum to keep the bad road
from being impossible. and that it will
cost 10 cents an acre to keep the good
road good.
The good road thus costs primarily Sc
an acre more, and Is cents an acre less for
maintenance. Now the saving of one
hour of time and of one team and wear
and tear of vehicles can be measured in
dollars and cents, also the profit resultant
from the augmented facility. When
these two equal Sc an acre, the good road
is paid for, and thereafter its benefit to
the farm is the sum of the saving, and
the new profit less the cost of main
tenance, 10 cents an acre.
In addition there is a sentimental gain
that is decidedly valuable. By the lesen-
ing of time in passage between farm and
town, distance is shortened in effect, and
the rural home brought that much closer
to the privileges and advantages of town
life, and thus rural life made that much
more desirable. Over the bad road in
the supposititious case stated, say it takes
the farmer one hour to drive with his
family to church, theater, fair, depot.
