BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS.
Objection Raised TO . Chimney and q
House.

At q meeting of the board of public
works yesterday Superintendent Helms
reported that upon investigation he had
found that the chimney on the house be-
longing to n. L Rogers. OF which Mary
Bailey had made complaint TO the board
last Monday, was not such nuisance as
it had been reported to be, but that the
complaint was simply the result of q
neighborhood jar. The board decided not
10 compel Mr.. Rogers to build the extern
sion.
A complaint was received from George
Shafer in regard to small building on
South Second street. near Washington,
stating that il had been built in strict vio-
lation of the city ordinance, being q
wooden building within the fire limits.
The board instructed Superintendent
Helms TO serve a notice upon the proprie-
tor to either demolish the house or re-
move it,
i. b. West petitioned for a permit to re-
move earth from portions OF Barclay street,
and upon recommendation of City Engi.
nesr Thomson the permission was granted.

PLAY AND WORK.

A New York journal which is evidently
somewhat annoyed at The success of the
Vigilant in its speed trials against the Val
kyrie says that when it comes to pleasure
yachts America is a creator. But when
the contest is carried into business the
Americans are nowhere. Nearly all the
carrying trade between America and Eu-
rope is done in foreign bottoms. The
journal then adds:
That we are thus crippled. though We were long
a nation OF sailors and shpbuildefs, Is due pr-
marily to our suicidal effort at protecting our
own shipyards
The suicidal effort at protecting our own
shpyards has given our vast internal
carrying trade TO American vessels. 1t is
estimated that but one-twentieth of our
whole trade is foreign. OF course vessels
do rot do all The internal transportation,
but such part as is done by water is in the
hands of Americans. 1t may be ques-
toned if there is any great advantage in
flying the American flag over a foreign
built vessel manned by foreign crew.
The carrying trade is where most other
industries would be under free trade. So
long as American wages are higher than
European wages just so long will Enro-
peaDs do such kind of our work az may be
done abroad. The aim of free traders
seems 10 be 10 reduce wages in the United
States to the point which will enable us TO
compete on even terms with the cheapest
labor countries of the world.
The morning call., 1893-10-20
ANOTHER BLOW.

The Southern Pacific Company are en-
gagged just now in trying to dodge knock
down blows. These blows come so fast,
however. that lodging them is much like
running away from an earthquake. The
runner may run, but the earthquake keeps
abreast all the same. The latest blow is
from the United States Court of Appeals.
which has affirmed decision that transp0r-
tation rates on imported goods shall not be
lower than rates on inland freight. One
of the complaints made against the South
ern Pacific was that it brought goods from
Liverpool by way of New Orleans at lower
rates than were charged on domestic goods
for shorter distances. The effect was to
stimulate imp0rtalious. Under the de-
cisioD, as reported, the Southern Pacific
will not be allowed to make less charge
on goods delivered from foreign ports to
New Orleans than 1t charges for moving
domestic goods of the same character
delivered by shippers at New Orleans.
The rule is of wide application. 1t will
restore to San Francisco some of the ad-
vantages as seaport which hostile dis
elimination has taken from her. 1t will
probably enable our merchants to recover
some OF the tea trade they lost when it
cost as much to move merchandise from
San Francisco as from Asiatic ports.
The morning call., 1893-10-20
LIKE AND NOT LIKE.

A correspondent suggests that il mi
nority of Senators may prevent the repeal
of the purchasing clause in the Sherman
act minority may also prevent the repeal
Of the Mckinley tariff act. Probably the
repeal of the tariff may be preven ted in
the way suggested. But there is differ
ence in the political standing of the two
propositions. The Democrats can claim
that the verdict of the people last year was
that the Mckinley act should be repealed
Both parties believe in submitting to the
will OF the people. Should, therefore, a
minority Of protectionsts attempt to stand
in the way Of carrying a popular verdict
into effect it would be condemned by both
parties. But the repeal of the silver
purchasing law does net rest on like
grounds. The Democratic national plat
form calls for repeal, but couples this call
with demand for the use of both silver
and gold as money. The repeal bill makes
no pretense of conforming to the latter
condition of the platform. Silver Demo-
Gratis contend that tuntil bill is prescribed
which does they are not under any obliga-
tion to abide by the first condition. Re-
publicans filibuster on the general ground
that bad legislation should be defeated if
possible. and Dem ocrats filibuster on the
ground that the repeal bill lie not a party
measure. The President in forcing upon
Congress the consideration of repeal
The morning call., 1893-10-20
CONGRESS SHOULD CONTROL THE
ARID LANDS.

The Farmers Alliance in session at
Fresno has been prompt to take action
with reference to questions raised before
the Irrigation Congress. In the opinion of
its members a transfer of arid lands of the
Western States and Territories from the
hands of the National Government and
Congress to legislatures and their agents
would lead to rank injustice and deliberate
plunder of the public lands and water
rights by the army of monopolists and cor
porations, who would reap immense profits
ultimately from the sales to agriculturists.
That there would be great danger of this
being the result cannot be doubted by those
who have noted the ease with which legis-
latures are swayed in the interest of
wealthy corporations and induced to vote
them very large share of all they ask.
The Alliance prefers that Congress should
retain the power in its own hands as being
less open to conviction in favor of peculiar
views of public policy entertained by rail-
road magnates and land schemers. The
water rights at least are much TOO impor-
tant to be abused.
