Hawaiian Islands policy:
50 long as Hr. Cleveland maintains his de-

destiny Of the Islands is assured. Sooner or
later the American flag will go up again.
On what ground will Mr.. Cleveland
maintain his declared purpose? He has

the United States, and has MADE no propo-
sition 10 take them in any other way under
the American flag. Now. If the Provi-
sional Government enters into negotiations
with England on what ground would Mr..
Cleveland protest? A declaration on the
part of an American President that the
United States does not want the islands
and will not allow anybody else to want
them would only provoke derision. If
the American flag foated from the Gov

used to onvert molten iron into Bessemer

converter and a stream of air is injected.
with the result that the metal is obtained
readily in the form of pig-lead, litharge or
sulphate of lead as required. The process
has the advantage of dispensing with fuel
to great extent, the oxidation giving the
requisite heat. This will work revolu-
ton in the metallurgy of LEAD, as. according
to Mr.. Hanuay, the whole of the metal In
the ore is obtained as finished product
without any loss whatever. Under the oid
process there was loss of 20 per cent. In
addition every ounce OF silver can be sepa-
rated and collected without adding TO the
working expenses, the smallest percentage
being thus recoverable. This development
in the treatment Of lead ores is OF great I'M
portance to lead works in number OF
States in America, and it will also be of
advantage To the silver meta llurgist.

THE WORLDS FAIR.

Citizens of California have read with
exultation the glowing address of Governor
Markham on the dedication of the Cali

the wealth of the country and of the genius

recovered from the emotions aroused by
their fervid eloquence it is we'll that
aspects of The show.
The payroll for May was about $50, 900
day, or $500, 600 for thu month. Against
this the receipts from the sale Of tickets
up to June IA and inclusive of that day
were $780, 900. Here is deficit of 800, 900
on the income account, setting aside for
the moment all thought Of construction
account The Chicago papers are calling
for retrenchment in expenses. The Times
says that there are host of ornate and
decorative employees who are sitting around
ON stools with nothing to do while the
treasurer's safe is stuffed with unpaid
claims of contractors. 1t seems that the
directors feel the necessity for economy,
and propose to prune the payroll, but they
are astonished to find that the expenses are
so much larger than they had anticipated
in some cases double the estimates. They
will have no option but to cut down their
working force to the smallest number COM
patible with the running of the institution.
Economy alone will not suffice to pull
the fair out of embarrassment. A plan
must be found to increase receipts as well
as to reduce expenses What shall that
plan be? The buildings are now COM
pleted and the great bulk Of the exhibits
are in place. A special exhibit which was
hardly expected turned up in the person
of the 1nfanta Eulalia; she drew very
well indeed. Is there any other parsonage

the benefit of his presence? People would

DRUIDS ASSEMBLE.
Annual Session of the
Grand Grove.
The Noble Grand Arch Touches Up
the Members of the Order in
this City.

The Druids of tina State of California
gathered in this city yesterday for the
purpose of discussing matters OF interest
to the order.
1t was the twenty-ninth annual session
that brought the delegates of the Grand
Grove 10 Druids' Hall on Sntter street.
and there were more than hundred Off
GERS and representatives when the session
opened.
The session was presided over by Noble
Grand Arch NJ. J. SorensUn of No. 80.
Grand Secretary John II. Knarston of No.
10 was also present.
The report of the Noble Grand Arch was
introduced in an opening address to the
assembled members, in which he well
coined all the visiting mem ers 10 the city
and spoke of the work before them.
Speaking on the point of the work of the
groves IN San Francisco. the Noble Grand
Arch said:
am going TO speak to you very plainly also,
and trust you will accept what / may say
In the same spirit IN which II Is said. First.
San Francisco is the leading commercial city in
California at present. and for that reason there
Is hardly a night but what some DRUID from
some one or another country grove is in your
city on business, or for pleasure, and would de-
light 10 meeting with some OF your groves, not
y,
but also for the Instructions he may be able to
receive; hence, on all occasions endeavor 10
make Ii pleasant for your visitors as far as
sociabity Is concerned, and above all, when
you have any work 10 perform, present it IN a
manner thar cannot be rXcelied by any grove
outsldr OF your city. BY doing that you will
mol only promo your own Interest but you
will he doing good to our order at large, and you
will have nve visitors to your groves where
you now have only one.
In reviewing the work of the officers of
the Grand Grove during the year the
speaker said that notwit outstanding a
lamentable lack of funds for travelling ex-
penses, the grand arch aud the grand
secretary had Travelled the length and
breadth of the State and had met with
much success.
The report of the grand secretary
showed that eleven groves had been inst-
tuted during the year. and that there are
now in this jurisdiction seventy-three
groves. with total mem bership of 4z72,
gain Of 305 members during the year. The
Sc rotary recommended that charters be
granted to twelve new groves.
The session will be continued to-day
and it is expected that the work of the
session will be completed during the after
noon, and a grand ball will be given in the
evening.

IMPUTED CHARACTERISTICS.

CONGRATULATIONS coming from transient
visitors are rarely accurate. They are
mostly surface expressions OF surprise at
contrasts which strike them as prominent.
For deeper reflection, studious observation
and collation. and sitting of information
are necessary. The sojourner who passes
three months in Paris or London may
write interestingly about these cities, but
can have no profound acquaintance with
their inner spirit. social organization and
manifold diversities of life. His c0nclu-
sions are akin to the impressions one forms
of the world from the scenes Of diorama.
The visitor from Paris or London TO
America Is In no better case. He Is ready
to write book in three months, aud would
dash off the chapters with confidence. But
if he waits couple of years or still
longer he enters upon his task with diff
dence. and is perplexed by doubts about
his competence. Mr.. Bryce's work on
THE American Commonwealth" was not
evolved by cocksure assumption, but by
hard application to huge undertaking.
A correspondent Of the Temps. who has
taken us in at glance at Chicago, has ar
rived at some conclusions which IL was not
necessary he should cross the Atlantic TO
form. He finds Americans vigorous. 1t
is trte deduction. We have always been
credited with the ardor and some of the
faults Of youth. He tells us that we aim
at success, inevitable, predestined. c0los-
SAL" Europeans also have these aims, but
only find the elbow room when they go
abroad. We have the arena suitable. Then
he finds that while we have reputation
for being practical we have a ten
deney ITO magnify, to embellsh. to
trick out our impressions in tin
sci and furbeows." This is most
sapient observation coming from France !
AT least the newspapers of France show
the frippery or entertainment without
news or information, while American
newspapers. whatever their opinions may
be, are weighted with fact presented with
singular industry, accuracy and ability.
Is there not just touch of Imagination

COMPETITION AND COMBINATION.

MIR. Woolcott Richards Bissell writes
THE CALL expressing dissent to the
opinion recently advanced that California
would n OF contribute to the construction
of a transcontinental railroad unless
reasonable assurance was given that such
road would be managed in the interest OF
shis State. Our correspondent says:
1t would hardly seem possible that the
business men of California who have Devoted
their brain aud Drawn 10 the development of her
vast meIcial interests ana whose money
will be asked TO help set this enterprise Une
proposed Denver railroad well agong would
be so shOrtsishted as 10 contribute their
money without receiving a quid pro quo. that
is TO say, such share of the capital stock of
the corporation as VIII render them of equal
voice with :he Colorado contingent in any
measure that might be suggested affecting the
welfare of the railroad. SO that it would be i'm
possible 10 draw from them contributions or
subscriptions to build road that lad already
been sold, and equally impossible TO effect
sale after completion 10 any management
hostile 10 the Stale
The assumption Is herein made that if
California money goes into this proposed
railroad it will constantly exercise its in
iuence for the benefit of the State. But
we have seen in the case of the Central
Pacific that this assumption does not
always hold good. Whls the projectors
of the Central Pacific did not put much Of
their own money into the road, they con-
trolled the entire capital and conducted
the business of the road with slight regard
TO the interest of this State. Californians
may put money in the proposed Denver
road in the belief that it can be made a
paying property. Naturally they will be
willing to assent TO combinations that
promise to increase the value of their in
vestment. Our correspondent continues ::
The fact must not be lost sight of that no
road built with a view 20 handle transcont-
mental business can hope 10 compete for such
business unless it put itself on the plane with
all other roads that may be engaged in the same
traffic.
This implies that com bination with other
transcon tinental roads may become nec-
essary. AS the control of trauscOntin
tai railroads will for years TO come remain
in the East, California running single
road would not cut much OF figure in de-
termining rates.
Again our correspondent says:
/ 90 not quite catch your idea how a road
running between San Francisco and Denver
can discriminate between Denver and Chicago
and against san Francisco, the TWO cities being
at the anIipodes OF the line. Aud so far as a
road ending in Denver extends 10 Chicago
through lis connections that depends upon the
connections the road makes.
Precisely. And if Chicago connections
insisted upon discrimination hetween
Western bound freight and Eastern bound,
so as to give Chicago an advantage over
San Francisco in the territory lying be-
tween, would not this city be exposed to
the very danger THE CALL pointed out?

Der OF days thereafter every lady who

THE AMENDE HONORABLE.

The New York Times has taken its mis-
representations about the Monterey back
as FAR as possible. The misrepresenta-
tons will go where the retraction Will
never reach, but the Times has done what
1T could to correct unwarranted impress
sions. The San Francisco Examiner was
the only other American journal to dispar-
age the work of the Union Iron Works,
and retraction from that journal is now
in order Following is from the Times:

Next Sunday afternoon there will be all

The Grove-street is popular anyway and

but this is to be something extra special"
and the Grove won't be large enough to
accommodate all who seek admission.
The occasion is a benefit for the relief
fund for the widows and orphans of the
firemen who were killed in the late con-
hagration on Page and Lyon streets.
Many heart has ached to think of the
desolation In three homes caused by the
heroic sacrifice of the intrepid heads of
families. The breadwinners were at one
blow stricken down. and those dependent
upon them we're in many cases left unpro-
yided for, except for the charity of CRATE
full community.
Doubtless many have contributed their
mite to the fund raised for the benefit of
the innocent sufferers, but many have not
had an opportunity to do what they would
like to.
Now, however, the Grove-street The alter
has arranged a timely entertainment
whereat those attending may at the same
time assist the widows and orphans of
those who so nObly fell.
The piece selected is the PHOENIX" q

occasion.
The leading man will be Clarence r.

assisted by Meyer Cohen, the local talented

Here then is chance which will appeal
to everyone.
The Grove-street Theater is in a central
position and people casting about for a
place to go next Sunday afternoon will be
reminded of the "Phenix" The prices
will snit all purses.
Of the details of the show it would seem
to be impolitc to speak. The "Phenix"
is acknowledged 10 be powerful drama
and should enchain interest from start to
finish.
The bills and advestsing columns will
announce the time of commencement, but
one thing seems certain, parties wanting a
good seat had better arrange for them in
time. There is likely to be q rush.
