Senator La Due, one of the worlds

removing the Minnesota exhibits will
begin at once and everything that can
be removed will be returned to this
state, and such exhibits as do not be-
long to some society, institution or in

state institutions. Tie furniture and
such material will be sold. The COM

tended to six months, in which case
they hope to realize something by SELL

$4,000 to $4,000 left out of the appro-
priation, and they feel very proud of
Minnesota's creditable exhibit.

THE OAKLAND FIGHT.

The conflict in which Oakland has en-
gagged with the Southern Pacific Com pany
is one in which the State is scarcely less
interested than the city. One right at
stake is that of competition. The estab-
lishment of a competing line TO transport
passengers across the bay suggested to the
Southern Pacific Company that the people
of Oakland should be taught that their
interests were identical with those of the
older company. 1t has become part Of
the Southern Pacific policy to harass Oak
land business interests in every possible
way. They ran trains through the city at
the rate Of thirty miles an hour until the
Council put stop to it. Now they run
two trains at the same or nearly the same
hour. one of which stops at one station
and does not stop at other stations, the
second train stopping at stations which
the first had omitted. The second train
arrives at the boat just as the steamer is
about to cast loose, and passengers are
admonished by the cry of "Hurry upP'
"Y QUILL be late" AS the mole is not a
pleasant place at which to spend an hour,
passengers rush pellmel through the
gates and reach the boats in frame of
mind that need not be closely described
This is the way the Southern Pacific
Furnishes its patrons for the sins of those
who patroDiZe the Davie ferry.
local contemporary, which on main
questions has always been found on the
side of the Southern Pacific, now says:

quicker and more cerlain transportation cannot
ba bad hO 1Tya in OaE will hp Oil RI
LOOK elsewere for homes. So the city must not
put itself in the position of biIlng off its nose
TO spite its face.
The long and short of this is that Oak
land should give up the fight. As the
Southern Pacific has the power to annoy
the people the people should let the South
ern Pacific have its own way. A conflict
will entail unpleasant consequences. Per-
haps a better way would be for the people
generally to stand by Oakland in its fight
with the Southern Pacific. San Francisco
people should patronize the opposition at
some little trouble IN the way of making
Oakland connections. If the vexatiOus
game the Southern Pacific has undertaken
to play is allowed to succeed il will be tried
elsewhere. When this company wants
thing it will annoy the people into giving
it to them. Perhaps in this way they ex-
pect to get possession of the Oakland
water front.
The morning call., 1893-10-17

fies the transportation problem. There
will be traffic for the railroads and the
canal too, but the railroads will not be
able any longer TO dictate the terms of
transportation as they please. At present
it takes from twenty to thirty days 10
move freight from the Pacific seaboard to
the Allan tic. Does anybody imagine that
when the Nicaragua canal is open and
steamers can pass between New York and
San Francisco in three weeks without
breaking bulk merchants will hesitate
about the route for a vast proportion
of their freight If they can save 30 or 70
per cent by going through the canal? Mr..
GOu!d's optimism will Dot blind any busi-
ness man who understands railroading.
AS TO Government management of the
canal that is well nigh indispensab BILE to
keep it out of the hands of the railroad
sharks. But on the proposition by itself
of government control there is good ex-
ample of success. The SueZ canal shares
held by the British Government have Tot
led to disaster. The investment is brill
liantly successful as speculation, and the
canal fulfills allits purposes magnificently.
Surely the Unied States Government can
do as well at Nicaragua.
The morning call., 1893-10-17
DOES NOT LIKE NICARAGUA.

Mr.. George Gould does not profess to be
either a statesman or 8 philan thropist.
He is a railroad magnate with vast schemes
on hand, and his life is passed in looking
after them on the lines laid down by his
father. Consequently we do not expect
from him a large-minded view of the
Nicaragua canal. He would rather not
see it constructed. He is quite averse to
the Government having any share in the
enterprise. on the broad ground that in his
view 90 vernments should not meddle with
projects which he and his class say they
are much better able to control. But If
the canal is made Mr.. Gould does not con-
ceiye that it could do any harm to trans
continental railroads. 1t will carry a
large amount of heavy freight but cannon
rob the railroads of the great bulk of mer-
chandise which they now transport so
advantageously, as he assumes, for the
benefit of the community. This is just
as much as a man in Mr.. Gould's position,
with hundred million dollars in his
vaults which he is anxious to double in a
decade, might be expected to say and feel.
Nobody has the least desire that the Mic
aragua canal should injnre the railroads.
1t is hoped, however. that it will do them
good by reducing them to purely busi-
ness basis of carrying goods with some
consci tlous approximation to the cost OF
service, and of com, eling them to give
the public the benefit of competition in
stead of arranging tariffs on fieece-the
public policv of combination. The couu-
try is growing, and il will grow all the
faster when the Nicaragua canal simpll
