apolis Times stated that Attorney
General Olney was ready and waiting
to strike the trusts, but as yet he has
done nothing. 1t has been the cry OF

the tariff is the promoter of trusts,
but the duty which the Mckinley law
imposes upon refined sugar cuts Dut

HENRY CLEws' circular, which repre-
senta the Wall street view OF the finan-
cial condition, Is not at all pesaimistic
in it's utterances. OF course it strongly
reflects the views Of the gold-bugs, and
ascribes the stringency to the disturb
ing influences OF the silver question and
the phenomenal drain OF gold on Euro
pean account. Notwithstanding these
influences, however. the circular seems
so think that the disturbances will grad"
ually aubside into settled conservative
attitude of the banks, to await the ac-
ton of congress. But at the same time
there is no room for doubt that they
now understand that the general COM
mercial situation is sound one. The
failures in the western states so far are
not important. Weak concerns, and
those that have over.speculated, have
been badly shaken; but the large repre-
sentative financial inetitutions are in
condition to weather any storm that is
likely to arrive. The failures Of indus
trial institutions were confined TO such
as had done business on loose scale
and risky principles.

street. She was discovered about 1:30
this morning by her parents in q dying
state, caused by the effects OF dose of
aconite, an empty bottle which had con-

floor by her side. Owing to thelateness

THE San Francisco Gall is fair in all
things excepting partiasnship. When
ever 1t runs up. against politics its in
tense hatred Of the Democratic party
throws 1t off its balance and makes it,
say things which are at once foolish and
untrue. For instance, in discussing the
question OF national armamentH, it as
sumes that nothing stands in the way OF
our building up strong modern navy
excepting the Democratic party. The
assumption is without warrant Of truth
either in history or in the policy of the
present administration. Secretary Whit
ney, who was at the head of the naval
department during Cleveland's frat ad-
sministrstion, WAS really the father of
the new navy. Under hls able chiefship

ernment for nearly afquarter of CEN
tury before, and the fruits OF their at
tempts to give us a navy were few
wooden ships, which the world laughed
at, and the most scandalous exhibitions
of ineflicienoy and corruption ever
known in the navy department. 1t was
not till the Democratic came into power
that any honest effort was made to give
us navy consistent with our nations
Importance. The new navy is child
ofthe Democracy, and this is a.histor-
ical fact which no vsporing OF blind Re-

IT Is notable circumstance that,
Notwithstanding the howl against silver,
there are only three hundred Thousand
ounces Of the white metal in New York
now, against ak million ounces at this
time last year. If it were not for the
we'll organized crusade against silver, 1t
would be rising in price daily. All the
great silver bonanzss have been worked
out and no new ones have been discov-
cred, If there were a genuine American
spirit amongst our treasury officials,
England, which requires large quanti-
ties of silver bullion to coin into rupees,
to use in her dealings with her East In
dian posseaeions, would be compelled to
pay fair price for 1t. Silver is scarce,
and yet it does not rise in price, like
any other ecarce article, because it has
no friend in Washington and, singu-
larly enough, this seems to be the case
under both Republican and Demo
cratic administration, the more's the

THERE is general concensus of
opinion in this state that the attempt
to enforce the Geary law ought to be
made by arresting the highbinders and
vicious class. These are well known to
the police of every city, and there would
be no difficulty whatever in having them
pointed out to the United States mar
shals. Perhaps, however, snag would
be struck at the very start. The sixth
section of the Geary act provides only
for the registration Of Chinese laborers.
Could it, by any species of reasoning,
be shown that the highbinder is q
laborer? That he is a vagrant and q
criminal goes without saying; but this
very fact precludes the idea that he
earne his living by the swest of his face.

WE REGRET to see that the English

ever imported into California, is grad
ually working his way down the coaBt.
He has invaded the towns on the South

made vocal with the songs OF linnets and
Knockers. Now these feathered choris-
ters are all driven off, and the only bird
one sees or hears in the yards of
those cities is the predscious. croaking

intruder has so multiplied that he has
attacked and driven off all the native sing

it do, when the ayant-courriers of the
sparrow legions make their appearance,
to let every boy have'a shotgun and free
leave to go out and meet them? The
reception might cast terror into the
ranks of the feathered hosts, and check
their onward march. However this may
be, we must prepare for war-annihilat-
