PARK History:

Park Commissioner Hammond should
read up on park history. He is reported by
a contemporary TO have said:
1 regret to see that certain city papers have
been opposlng.the measure taimprcve The park,
assigning their customary suurian excuses. OF
alleged extravaganza and jobberys Thesesa
papers are the ones Which have oppDsed, bun
always without success every contemplated
park imuroGement and ranged themselves
against the best interests Of the park from the
time they fought its creation twenty years ago.
There are points in this silly speech which
indicate that Mr. Hammond may have had
the Bulletin and CALL in mind. These two
papers. have opposed the bill now before
the Legislature TO hand the park. over to
board of commissioners. who apparently owe
allegiance to the Southern Pacific rather
than to the people, but if Mr. Hammond
has any regard for the truth of history he
cannot have had the Bulletin and CALL in
mind when he refers to papers which fought
against the creation of the park twenty
years ago. One of the notable fights I'm
which the Bulletin and CALL have engaged
was that which resulted In saving the terri
tory which now Institutes the. park from
land spectators. Mr. Hammond should
have acquainted bimself with the history of
the park In which be takes such disinterested
interes: before making the statement with
which he is credited. Neither Of the papers
mentioned has ever opposed yearly ex-
peHditure of money for park improvements
sufficient for all useful purposes. The bill
we now oppose gives the Commissioners a
discretion which is subject to abuse. and
the exercise of which may greatly impair
the value of the park as the peoples pleas
ure ground. But Mr.. Hammond seems
mentally incapable of taking other than a
personal view Of things.

THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK.

The duties on imports at this port hay
increased to $3.50, ,16S 90 for February Of
this year, against S52s. 92G 45 for February
OF last year. This is about 20 per cent in
crease. It has come through the efforts
our business men haye made to get goods
at less than Southern Pacific rates. Il is
but a little more than a year since the
Traffic Association was formed, and 20
per cent increase in the receipts of mer-
chandise is one of the results. The 20 per
cent Increase in the imports means that we
are supplying customers who year ago
were supplied from Eastern cities. The
city is importing but little more for its own
consumption than last year. This ready
response to concerted plan to help them:
selves should encourage merchants, real
estate owners and capitalists to make their
pian complete. The transportation problem
from the East to this city is substantially
solved The clipper ships and the new
Panama line will enable us to get goods at
about the lowest possible cost. The next
thing is TO get them to consumers. Legisla-
tion to reduce rates over the Southern Pa
cifc lines has failed in the Legislature and
there only remains competition. Between
the waterways, electric roads and steam
railroads. where the volume of business

THE AMERICAN TRoTTER.

l. The owner of the Patchen stock farm in
New York has found an opening for the
sale of trotting horses in Europe. He be-
lieves that there is.a market in England,
France, Germany and Italy at higher prices
than can be obtained in America, and if
he can prove this to his satisfaction by
actual sales, he deserves a testim monial from
breeders as the pioneer in new enterprise.
The horse in its damestcated form came
from Europe, but in The remote past Of the
geological ages it roamed' over the prairies
of America, and had number of toes in
stead of the surviving one which forms the
hoOf. We are therefore making good re-
turn to Europe when we send it tretting
stock. The American tr0tier is unQuestion-
ably the fastest and most enduring driving
horse efall the breeds that have bern formed.
In its long life Of hard and willing service it
. is much mere useful than the thoroughbred
running horse, but the work for which the
latter is adapted is of another kind. OF late
a good deal of preferences has been shown
10 Europe for the tTotter of moderate speed,
but whether enthusiasm Of frantic kind
/: will ever be developed for the racing trot-
ter time alone can determine. Should Ham,
bletonian progeny come into vogue in the
slow-g0ing Old World. it would be advisable
also to- find a market for the American
buggy-a light gliding vehicle, which has
u 0 counterpart among the too. solid lumber
ing vehicles: that roll over good roads and
streets almost as a drag upon speed. AT
the same time horse with pull so strong
. that beth hands are needed for the reins
| will not advance In favor. One hnnd should
be- sufficient for a tractable, well-broken
horse.
species of harse-the cavalry charger In
. England the War Office cannot find. enough
of these horses, for which an average of
$500 is. paid when three years old. Most of
them come from. ireland, but. at times im-
portations are obtained from Hungary
Cavalry horses are very carefully inspected.
Would 500 pay the breeder?

EX-PRESIDENTS.


/. : The announcement that President Har-
rison will deliver a course of lectures at the
Stanford University on international law
will probably call forth. some expression of
regret that. an ex-President Of tile United
States should not be provided for by the
people. There are people WHO would pre-
fer to see the ex-Presidents retire from ac-
tive life and pass.their femainiug years in
diguiied retirement 1t does not follow be-
cause man works that he is poor. A good

John Quincy Adams was rich when he re-
tired from.the Presidency, but little later
he was found in fhe House Of Representa-
tives battling for human rights. Whon his
/ hiographyis is written it will be found that
his best claim to historical mention lies: in
the. work. he did after he left the White
House Benjamin Harrison's tour years
experiences as President especially fitted
him to deliver an instructive course of lee
lures on international law. He has studied
this branch of the legal profession. under
Tremendous responsibility. An error of con-
| sttucton would have exposed both himself
and the nation he presided over to humilia-
tion. The world will now get the benefit of
this study. Mr.. Harrison is not poor man,
|, but il he had million he would want some
kind of occupation.

Kingi" has literal significance, although
the transition is sharp. Under our repub-
lican constitution the President also lives,
but his predecessor, with rare exception,
only retires to another sphere of usefulness
less exalted. The ceremonies of courtesy
observed this year al Washington, prior to
the Inauguration, are an example of friend
illness which it would be well to see fol-
lowed in other countries under republican
rule. Among South American countries
there is too often faction fighting, which
drives Government almost into anarchy or
a choice OF dictators. In the United States
the fiat of the people is acqulesced in. The
Presidents exchange visits, with not too
much Of cerem m0niousness, such as is seen
when monarchS meet and wear compliment
aTy uniforms. This year the Vice Presi-
dents have also exhibited reciprocal kind
ness and politeness in visits. The change
OF personnel in mighty government is con-
clnded with a popular demonstration in
which not bayonet or rifle is needed to
preserve order.
The extent to which pugilists figure In the
public mind must be considered very prom
inent by the profession. but the real opinio on
OF their strutting aud posing as heroes of
unImpeachable honor must be one of dis
gust. Mitchell and John l.. Sullivan call
each other gentlemen on a stage, with
Abingdon Baird standing by as another
specimen or the gentleman, and then they
| utter spiteful aud uncharitable innuendoes
about an opponent who has beaten one of
them and is matched to meet the other. The
aim of the old school of pngilists was TO
| retire TO Groggery and perhaps enter upon
| the training OF hghtiDg dogs. The INTEL
lectual advancement OF certain types in the
present school qualities them to go back to
| this profession.
A clerk in the Pension Department is now
out in the cold seeking some other employ
ment as a penalty for faeetious indiscre-
| ton. He was rash enough to circulate the
| report that pensions were being grated TO
anybody who could prove he had a bald
head. Such generosity would shave the
public treasury too fast, but as the charge
is untrue there will still be economy of a
kind.
The reports from foreign powers as to the
vessels they will send to the naval demon
stration are encouraging. 1t will be dis
play worth crossing the continent to be-
hold. Ali the powers of any standing in
naval armaments are 10 be fairly repre-
