Tn. Southern Pacific Freight Schedule

SAN FRAScrsco. Oct. 25.--At a meeting
OF the railroad commissioners today the
new local freight schedule prepared oy the
Southern Pacific company was approved.
The schedule is what is known as the
Western classification. and effects about
an III per cent. reduction on freight. The
schedule is complicated one, there being
about 5000 combinations of rates. Rates
are raised on some classes of light and
costly freight, but lowered on the great
mass of heavy and cheap goods. Only
general merchandise will be affected by
the change. Coat, lumber. wheat. stone,
ores and wool are not embraced in il.
Discrimination is made in favor of the
long haul over the short haul. 1t is
thought San francisco merchants will be
benefited. It will also benefit interior
merchants on goods they buy. The new
schedule goes into effect January 1 next
Rate lists are being printed for distribu-
ton among shippers, but they will not be
ready for a month. One of the sdyant-
ages of the new system will be that ship
pers will be able to ascertain the rate on
freight without having TO ask the railroad
for il.

CARS IN BIG DEMAND.
Effect of the Eastern Washing

SOUTHERN paciFlc's NEW RATES


The wheat 10 now being moved from
Eastern Wsshington ail in rush. and the
effect Of the resulting demand for cars Ii
already beginning 80 be felt On this end Of
the Northern Pacific read. While the
Lake shore has 50 far been able 70 meet
al demands, il 10 probable thai in few
days the supply will be inadequate. No
such shortage exists on the Great North
ern. and the shinglemen are hoping that
IL will be able 10 relieve them. While no
traffie agreement has yet been made be-
tween the Great Northern and Receiver
Brown. the former could doubtless get the
business on the same terms as the North
ern Pacifc-tnat is, by furnishing cars
and absorbing the local rate TO Seattle
and would be likely thereby TO secure a
good deal OF other business TO and from
points on the Lake Shore road.
The question of securing cars to move
the product promptly is naturally re-
garded by the shinglemen As important at
the present time, for the mills are all get
ting into operation again and the demand
has increased so that there is an opportu-
nifty of making considerable sales before
winter. Yet prices continue 30 iow that
a very small addition TO the freight rate
makes the difference between profit and
loss.

HERE rs Tur, RECORD.

People have short memories. Events
crowd so closely on each others heels
that they soon become blurred and i'll
distinct as they recede in time. Trust
ing to this dimness of memory, the at
tempt has been made to charge the pa
ternty of the SHERMAN silver purchase
act OH the Democrats; not its passage,
but its need to avert some more diSaS-
trous measure on which Democratic
minority in the lower house was bent.
This is now and then made the basis Of
a statement that the Democrats cannot
be entrusted with the legislative con-
troll of the nation or of anything else.
Let us have. once for all, the facts.
The SHERMAN silver purchase law
was passed by the same congress winch
passed the MCKINLEY law, and was APP
proved by President HARRISON. The
claim that it was compromise measure,
and passed to prevent the passage OF
free coinage law, is untrue. There was
no possibility of the passage of
free silver bill by that congress.
The house of representatives had
defeated free coinage by deci-
sive majority. The president could
and might have vetoed it, had it passed
congress. Free coinage was dead in
that congress long before SHERMAN's
bill made its appearance. The pretext
that it was compromise" is without
any foundation whatever.

upon in the senate the following sena-

AGGRESSION OF SLANG.

The English language is so thoroughly
composite that alien words are added
without creating comment, even from
the greatest sticklers for purity of the
mother tongue. A quarter OF century
ago, when no man possessing the Slight
est claim to culture thought OF express
ing himself in words of less than four
syllables, the expressions that one COM
monty hears at this day from pulpit or
platform would have been deemed
shockingly irreverent if used as we
hear them now III connection with
sacred subjects. Is this another lndl-
cation of the irreverence OF the day;
OF is it only that we are too
busy to take time to express our
selves in the old. often stilted way?
Whatever may be the cause, the
habit of using slang phrases is SLOW
emily one. True, such expressions are
graphic, terse and expressive. They
are from the language of the fighter.
the rude and intenSe-thoSe from whom
the angles of savagery have not been
ground by the attrition of civilization.
For such these expressions are like
their coiners-full of energy, and save
time; and, what such as these prize
more, they are means for eliminating
from conversation every syllable that is
not absolutely necessary for reason
able understanding of those with whom
they are associated. But for leader In
public thought, such as a teacher or
minister should be, to talk as these I'M
lettered ones do, is certainly lament
able.
The associations that are involuntar
lily aroused by such expressions as The
threw up the SPONGE" or ''the under
dog in the fight" heard IN a religious
educational meeting during the past
week, are certainly not calculated to
elevate the thoughts of the hearers; and
when a majority of these hearers are
young people, to whom these speakers
stand in the light OF pastors and teach
ers-what shall we say?
The habit of using slang, like all bad
habits is one that grows unconsciousIy
on the user. To say that man is
turned down" or that he is ''way off,
might be allowable under some circum-
stances; but certainly not in this con-
nection. One need not be a stickler for
Addisouian purity; but no lover of his
kind would choose to see pulpit oratory
graced with such flowers Of speech as
these. 1t may be that in the frantic eff
fort that the last few years have seen to
popularize religion, when no effort has
been spared to bring it down to the
| level of the people-or so those who adj
vocate this ''hail-felIow well-met" style
! of Christian teaching say-the thought
that English pure and nndefled had a
tendency to keep the spiritual as we'll as
mental level above the ordinary horizon
of public life has been the cause of this
deplorable carelessness; but whatever
the cause, would 1t not be well for those
who speak in public to the young to be
guarded in this matter?

BUNKER HILL DAY.

The celebration in Boston of Bunker
Hill day was probably the most elabo-
rate ever given. The historic spot grows
dearer to the American heart as time
rolls on. The history of the great strug-
gle between the band of patriots and a
strong force of the British army bears a
charm that delights the American youth
more than almost any other battle of
the Revolutionary war. The unyield-
ing determination of the barefooted and
almost starved heroes to force the red
coats to evacuate Boston is almost un-
paralleled In history. JOHN HANCOCK
was by far the heaviest property holder
in the place; yet he declined to listen
TO any overture looking to its safety by
giving up the struggle, He it was who
proposed to burn Boston as means of

RIGOTRY THWARTED.

The gates of the worlds fair Will be
opened tC the people on every day OF the
week from now until they are finally
and forever closed. The Sabbatarlan
bigots who were not content with free
dom to follow the behests of their own
consciences in observance of the SAD
bath, out wished to compel all others to
follow them, are thwarted. Blgotry IS
defeated. Christianity and morality
have triumphed in the decision rendered
by Chief Justice FULLER and concurred
in by Judges BUM and ALLEN.
The opinion which we give in our
news columns was rendered verbally,
and written opinion will be filed later,
covering more fully the grounds on
which it is based. Briefly, the chief
justice denies the injunction because
the grounds on which it is asked do not
head in equity. No possession OF the
United States is denied or threatened,
and no loss of property or damage will
follow, irreparable in its nature and be-
yond redress at law. 1t distinctly re-
pudiates. the doctrine of federal SUI
premacy on which Judge WOODS based
his decision, and sweeps away the con-
tention that the gift of the souvenirs
was conditioned on the closing of the
fair Sundays.
The two decisions OF Chief Justice
FULLER and of Judge WOODS aptly
illustrate the sOundnesS of the position
taken by the GLOBE of the Importance
of having upon these benches men who,
whenever questions come up involving
consideration of the functions of gov
eminent or the relations of the nation
and the state, and which do not turn Oh
positive enactment of constitutional
law. will take the Democratic view OF
governments as being instituted to Sc
cure liberty to the citizen, not to dimin-
ism his freedom or take it from him.
Naturally, unconsciously, Inevitably,
Judge WOODS. with his paternalistlc
conception of governments and their
powers, sustained the theory of the
right of congressional control based on
the condition subsequent attached to
gift, and on the ground that congress,
having part in the creation of the fair,
must have supreme part. 1t is equally
as natural and inevitable that Justice
FULLER should look with jealousy on
all claims OF superior power in congress
where a conflict with state arose, and
should give to the state all benefits OF
doubts that might exist. Judge WOODS
is federalist. a paternalist. and hence
a Republican. Justice FULLER is an
individualist, and hence Democrat.

PLEADING FOR PRIDE.

For the Sunday Globe.
And would We seek to crush it.
That high enobling pride
That proudly braves the liercest storm,
And on its pillows rides;
That dares ascend the steepest heights,
EDesceud to those most low,
And yet among above them all,
Its many beauties show?
Fer pride is not some base-born thing
That answers TO the will.
But like a melted Arab steed
Is always active, never still;
Leaps up with joyous neigh at early dawn,
Nor tires at close of day.
Before its swift. dsdainful pace
All barriers melt away.
On, seek not then to check it,
1t needs no curb or rein,
With look or word nor lash it,
For-their lightest touch is pain;
For pride is Natures fairest gem
For which gods and mortals sigh,
And in it's presence 'twere sweet to live,
And for its honor 'twere JOY TO die.
