ONE HELPS THE OTHER.

In respect to the proposed miniature
Worlds Fair the objection has been made
that it would take a lot of coin. II is also
urged that the city needs all its money to
inaugurate a local system of transporta-
ton and that one enterprise would hurt
the other. 1t is not certain, however, that
one enterprise would hurt the other. 1t
is expected that the fair would bring a
good many Eastern people to California.
MANY of whom would have an eye to in
vestments. If a capi talist finds the time
dull. with no prospects of improvement, he
might hesitate about putting much money
in climate. But if he found railroads being
built to supplement the Nolt III American
Navigation Company's Panama steamers
he would see future for the city. The
Stockton and Bakersfield road will open a
valley whose trade of itself would support
n city half as large as San Francisco
Looking north, if he finds close connection
being made with SdditLern Oregon he would
see another opening not less promising
than that from the south. The construc-
ton of these roads would give assurance
that the city would never again be caught
In Huntlngton'S combination wise. 1t will
be able to get goods at the lowest cost and
10 distribute hundreds of miles in every
direction. There is hardly a man in San
Francisco who would not make money by
subscribing for stock in both of the enter
prises under consideration. The fair will
bring people here and the railroad will
show that business is being developed on
Il solid foundation. While capital will be
appealed TO mainly in the railroad enter
prise, it might be we'll TO invite popular
subscriptions to the fair stock. Real es-
ate owners. business men Of ali descrip-
lions, mechanics and laborers would help
themselves by becoming stockholders.
One hundred thousand shares at SO a
share would provide 100000. While no
close estimate of the cost has been made
there seems TO be general guess that
$1,000, 600 will serve every purpose.

THE SCAPEGOAT.

Eastern financial writers attribute all
the recent monetary disturbances to the
Sherman act. If Congress would only re-
peal that act all would 60 well. The New
York Times recently declared the Sher-
man act the cause of the smaller proper
ton of gold paid into the treasury there
for May. When the coinage of silver
dollars was authorized in 1873 all the
treasury receipts were in gold. There
was, in fact, no other kind of money to
pay treasury dues in. Legal tender was
not at par. though it became so a year
later, and there were no silver dollars
until the act of 1873 required the treasury
to coin such dollars. At present the
treasury receipts of gold have fallen to
about 3 per cent. Twenty-three per cent
was paid 10 silver in April, the rest in
green backs or treasury notes. The act of
1878 provided that the 41215-grain silver
dollar should be received for all further
dues. But these dollars are worth only
their commercial value as bullion out of
the United States. As some $500 OO0.-
900 were coined under the Bland act il
Is not surprising that some of them should
flow into the treasury. They would If the
Sherman act should be repealed. The
Times has reached the conclusion that
unless some way is reached to supply the
treasury with gold it is only question of
time when there will be no gold in the
treasury. Eight millions of the 500, 900, 600
the present administration found in the
treasury have already disappeared. But
neither the Times, Mr.. Cleveland nor any
other auth orty has sugges ted any other
relief than the repeal of the Sherman act

THE MONEY DRAIN.

An Italian banker doing business in New
York estimates that in the last year Ital-
ians in this country sent $50, 1000, 900 to
Italy. The banker said he sent 81, 900. 900
and that there were about 100 Others do
ing the same kind of business Thirty
millions for the workers of one nationality
to send out of the country seems a large
sum. Many of the Italians were shown to
have come under contract, and were con-
sequently not paid the highest rate of
wages. Between alien laborers who send
their money out of the country and rich
natives who spend their incomes abroad.
the United States is having hard time Of
it. But the humanitarians do not seem
to care what becomes of our own people
so that the condition of the oppressed of
other countries is improved. A great cry
has gone up all through the East because
of law designed to check the inflow Of
Chinese. A Chinese laborer ACQUIRES the
right to live unmolested in the country hv
the simple act of registering, and from the
Mississippi River to the Atlantic the coun-
try is overlooking with denunciations of
the act. 1t is the strangest instance of
much ado about nothing" that our his

WHERE is THE INHUMANITY,a

The Boston Herald says: "The Geary
Chinese act is one Of the most inhuman acts
that was ever placed on any statute-book."
To This the New York Sun replies:
This is very highly exaggerated statement.
The act merely requires Chinese residents 10
register their names, as those of Americans
resident In China are registered. No Chinese
who obeys it will be expelled from the country
or subjected 10 any trouble whatever. The
penalty OF dIsobeying 1t is far milder than tile
Chinese penalty for disobeying any edct IL is
not a law Tor the expulsion of The Chinese, or
that restricts any right of the Chinese, or that
lnf1icts any wrong upon the Chinese. or that
ought to disturb the Chinese, or that would dis
turb them In the least If they took the trouble
TO give heed to II.
The Herald is doubtless under the i'm
preston that the Geary act is deporta-
ton act, pure and simple. So intelligent
journal would not express the opinion
above recorded of an act the main purpose
of which was registration. Several Euro
pean nations are more strict in their
dealings with foreigners than the Geary
act is with Chinese. Ii the editor of the
Herald should go to France to reside
presuming that he is an American citi-
zen-ne would have to register. He would
not only have TO register, but get his GER
tifcate vised in case he should remove
from the locality in which he first regis
tered. But the Chinese in the United
States can go from city to city and from
State to State at his pleasure. One regis
tration is sufficient. A good many of our
Eastern contemporaries seem to have
fallen into the error we have presumed
against the Herald. These comments in
dictate that they regard deportation as the
first object of the act.

HE COMES HIGH.

During the last Presidential campaign
Colonel 1ngersoll predicted that the cleo
ton of Cleveland on the Chicago platform
would cause shrinkage in the values of
the property of the country to the extent
of $4,000, 100000. People did not accep.
lngersoll as prophet then, and do not yet
But things are looking that way more than
people believed they would. A Demo-
cratic newspaper in New York estimates
the decline in the values since the 1st of
January Of the stocks and securities in
the Stock Exchange OF that city at $780,
100000. This is one-eighth of the shrink
age lngersoll predicted and It has taken
place in a very limited line OF securities
But little OF the solid wealth of this coun-
try is represented in the Stock Exchange
But it is urged that decline cannot be
charged to Cleveland for the reason that
Congress has not met since he was in
augurated. But the country has been
assured that when Congress meets reve-
nue. tariff will be enacted. This means
that goods now paying protective duties
will be charged only revenue duties. The
object will be to increase importatiors
with view to a large revenue. In 1892
the valne OF dutiable articles imported was
In round numbers S346. 100000. The reve-
nue. tariff men who are preparing tariff
for Congress propose to put S37. 600, 0G0
worth of these articles on the free list and
to reduce the duties on S319. 100000 from
an average of 48.7 per cent to % per cent

crease the imports to $3.50, 100000. Assum-
ing that this guess proves correct we will

not merely for the morning, but to stay
all day. 1t was in fact not so much of a
''call" as visitation. 1t brought its pic
lures along and entertained all who re-

pages was not large as such things go in

creditabIe product of modern journalism.

fairly well, and instituted contrasts and
comparisons between our achievements
and those of other countries. Our seem
cry. literature, education, Industries,
sports and charities were ably reviewed
and set forth for the information of all
who are interested in such matters, and the
edition, therefore, will be of permanent
value as work of reference ON many i'm
portant subjects. We take pleasure in
noting the recent increase of energy in
The CALL because it seems to US an un-
mistakabe evidence of revived spirit of
progress in the metropolis that will have
tonic effect throughout the State. and.
moreover. as journalists we are proud to
record 1t as an other proof of the fact that
in our profession California takes rank

try On the globe.

others of much less personal or political

opinion that it was the last day for an

FOR TELLING THE TRUTH.

The New York EUening Post thinks ex-
Minister John l.. Stevens should be horse
whipped. His offense is telling the truth
about court life In Honolulu during the
reign of the ex-Queen. One might sup
pose that a journal which claims to be
especially fair in dealing with men and
issues would give Mr.. Stevens the benefit
of the law of lbel-admit that the truth of
the portrayal would justify its publication.
But the Post is especially tender OF royal
and prncely persopages whether they toe
the American mark in respect to morality
or not. Mr. Stevens has said nothing
about the court life of The ex-Queen that
hundreds OF others have not said after

fifty-two pages, which is as good as any
special edition that has been issued by a
San Francisco paper. In variety of mat

away ahead of previous efforts. The
trouble with special editions of San Fran

as they swell in bulk they become dull and
unreliable. but that cannot be said of THE
