Tuesday a man whose name we failed
to learn, stopped for breakfast at the old
Tucker house in Waubay. He rode il
from the south. Shortly after his depar-
ture Deputy L. $. Marshal, +. &. Statler,
received a telegram giving a description
If a man aud horse, stating the man was
wanted at WATERFOWL for horse stealing.
As above mentioned person answered
the description, Statler started III pur-
suit, overtaking him near Glovcrs, about
ten miles North Of Waubay. The man
tailed with the description butlhe horse
did not. When the prisoner found lie
was caught, however, he explained the
situation by saying his pal had stolen a
horse belonging to one Geo. Babcock,
but lie refused 10 take Bsbc0Gk's horse,
so the animal was let loose and another
taken.

OUT OF ITS RANGE.

There are matters upon which a cham
Der of commerce is excellent authority.
There appear to be other matters upon
which bodies of this character have less
sense than an average citizen. The New
York Chamber of Commerce furnished an
example two or three days ago. Feeling
called npou to set the nation right on the
question of Chinese exclusion, the cham
Der expressed the opinion that in so deli
cate matter as Chinese exclusion Con-
gress should not presume TO legislate until
requested to do so by the State Depart
ment. If Congress waits for cue from
the State Department it is presumably
bound to make its enactment barmoniZe
with the views OF that department. The
Supreme Court of the United States has
held at different times hat the necessity
of actio by Congress TO correct the mis-
takes of the State Department was so ap-
parent that legis lative action abrogated
treaties the State Department entered
lnto. This position rests partly upon the
TACT that the popular house of Congress
has no voice in making treaties and partly
upon the fact that an independent govern =
ment must retain the right to exercise
paramount authority within its own limits
In cases of emergency. The New York
chamber does not seem to have gone
deeper into consideration of the subject
tnan that an act 1t does not approve of
snouid be In some way thwarted.

RELATIVE SUPPLY OF WHEAT
AND MEAT.

The Philadelphia Press, in an interest
ing article on the relation between Dopula-
ton and subsistence, takes THE CALL to
account for having omitted TO state in a
recent article on the subject that the rela-
tive decline in the product of cereal food
has been offset by relative increase in
the production of animal food. The point
is well taken. The worlds supply of
cattle in the last ten years has increased
more rapidly than population. and the
same is true Of tea. coffee and sugar
Thus, in spite of the apparent slOwness
with which the grain area is increasing.
nobody needs to 90 hungry. Still, man.
kind requires carbon as well as nitrogen
TO live, aud if the time ever comes when
the loaf on the workingman's table has to
make way for .he beefsteak, he will OF
be able to do much work. To be healthy a
workingman ought TO eatdaily two pounds
of farinaceous food to half a pound OF
animal food: if he Is deprived of either,
or If The proportions of either are mate
rally altered. he will lose vigor. Thus,
our friend of the Press is hardly accurate
in assuming that the increase in the
worlds supply of cattle compeusates man
kind for the apparent diminution in the
supply of cereals. The nutrDent supplied
by tea and coffee is quite small
Reasoning of this sort seems untimely
in connection with a decline in :he
wheat market. The present idea at Chi
cag0 appears to be that we are going 10
have not too little but too much wheat.
1t is to be hoped that they have reason
for the faith that is in them. The Cali
fOrnia farmers would like to see wheat as
dear as possible; but bread-earers, who
are, after all, in the majority, take exactly
the opposite view.

THE USUAL GROWL.

1t was expected that the Doodle papers
would charge Wednesdays fire to the
dollar limit Whatever there is of waste
or mismanagement in the administration
of affairs is assumed to be the result of
limit upon the tax levy. The opponents
of the dollar limit seem anxious only to
make point against rule that has been
adopted without dissent in every mnni-
cipai convention that has assembled in
this city in the last six years. That there
was a lack Of means to fight the fire
Wednesday morning will be admitted, but
i does not follow that the lack could justly
be attributed 10 the limit put upon the tax
levy. For some reason or other the water
company is allowed year after year to
charge for water and in fighting fire by the
hyGrant By this method the water COM
pany gets more money for water used for
this purpose than it gets for the same
amount for any other purpose. While,
for one cause or another, the city is pay-
ing fire price for the water used to ex-
tinguish fires the taxpayers are abused for
not providing more money to make up for
what is wasted. Possibly Fire Depart
ment that takes twenty-five minutes in get
ting on the ground of fire might be in
vestigated with advantage to the city.
Chiefs OF departments who are vociferous
in demanding more appliances while ex-
pending more money in proportion to
population than is allowed any other
department in the United States might
perhaps be persuaded by an investigating
committee to make more effective dis
position of the appliances at their disposal
The morning call., 1893-06-09
THE EFFECT OF COMPETITION.

A rival ferry steamer has been started
across the bay by the Whitney Express
Company. 1t runs 10 Oakl land and makes
few trips day. Passengers cross for
five cents, saving ten cents on the ordinary
fare, and shippers of freight obtain much
cheaper transportation. The Whitney
Company can afford to maintain a ferry.
for their own business involved payment
of 100000 year TO the Southern Pacific
and a good slice of this will be saved. The
traffic has volume enough to support two
or three steamers, there being nearly half
the population of California around San
Francisco Bay. and the marvel is that
earnest, uncompromising opposition has
not been started before to ferry monop-
oily whose business is about the most
profitable in the whole Southern Pacific
service.
The Whitney Company is proceeding
cautiously. The Frank Silva can, at least,
find remunerative freight in the company's
own parcels. But the effect on the South
ern Pacific is exceedingly wholeso ONE for
the public benefit. 1t is the company's
motto to trample under foot any move
ment which savors of boarding tile lion in
It's den. 1t is California for the Southern
Pacific. AS the impudence of competition
is not to be tolerated, the Southern Pacific
has come down in its ferry freight rates
from 30 to rs per cent, and merchants have
the pI respect. as long as competition con-
tinues, Of enjoying the privilege of reason
able rates-a boon heretofore unknown.
The Whitney Company is not in this enter
prise for the sake of philanthropy. but
the result of its independent, public
spirited action is as good as philanthropy
Passengers are conveyed across the bay by
Whitney for nickel. This is as much as
the fare should be, but there are no signs
of the Southern Pacific budging on this
point, its steamers being superior in equip
ment. As Berkeley and Alameda are out
side the range of competition they are not
affected by the change. But pier is pro-
crossing near the Judson Works. and pre-
sumably ferry will eventually be estab-
lished to that point. There is. conse-
Quently, hope for another center on the
eastern side Of the bay. Every movement
of this kind tends to break the power of
the monopoly which has so long controlled
the business Of this coast with Il strang Cling
grasp.
The morning call., 1893-06-09
WATERING STOCK.

The Massachusetts Legislature is wrest-
ling with the problem of checking the in
haton Incorporation interest by the sim pie
process of watering stock and drawing a
percentage of profit from the public as if
the creation were real ana not fictitious.
1t is process understood we'll by railroad,
water and gas companies. but is extremely
difficult to suppress. The house in the
Massachusetts, Legislature has engrossed
three bills relating to the issuance of cap
ital stock and bonds of railroad. gas, cleo
trio light and water companies, but on only
one was vote taken. This was on a
water company bill. 1t provides that such
corporations. whether they have general
or special charters. shall hereafter be con-
trolled in their issues of stock or bonds by
the Commissioner Of Corporations, who
must be satisfied that the new capital is
necessary and that its creation is in the
public interest. Should these bills pass it
does not follow that they would be effect
i've for their purpose. There are many in

ABOUT DRY ROT.

The Chronicle has a good deal to say
these DAYS about dry rot. 1t has diseov-
cred Indications of this disease in San
Francisco. When California declines to
follow the lead OF NJ. Il. de Young the
Chronicle charges that dry rot has set in.
Our contemporary is somewhat ike a land
speculator who thought along in the COS
that San Francisco presented good field
for snowy operations. He got temporary
possession of tract of land not many
miles from the city and laid it off into lots.
He asked only $500 for lot that cost by
the tract less than $50. He talked San
Francisco up, but he could not sell his lots
for cash. A few men were willing to buy
on credit advancing the novel idea that if
lots were going to be as high as was repre-
sented within five years lot would GER
tainly be good security for the purchase
price. But our speculator did n OF do bust
ness that way. He wanted to realize in
rrofit all the advance in value that could
be expected in the next ten years. But his
speculation failed. In due time he went
back 10 New York and assured every one
he talked with that there was no enter
prise in California.

genious ways of rounding the corner of
the most stringent provisions of the law.
A commissioner of corporations would
have to be nodded of adamant to resist the
arts which would be employed to confuse
his judgment and balk his knowledge. 1t
is the administration of good law which is
needed. But the introduction of measures
such as those referred to indicates de-
termination on the part of the public to
checkmate the aboundlng evil of drawing
revenue out of the community upon
swollen capitalization for which there is no
warrant. Companies of a public charac-
ter are entitled to fair earnings on genuine
capital but no more. When they go be-
yond this point they are practicing what is
akin TO fraud and robbery.
