IN OUR OWN HANDS.

The Butte Mont.) Miner attributes the
comparatively dull times in San Francisco
to the demon citation of silver. The
journal says:
Ever since the demonstration of silver times
In the West have grown harder; with the de
cline In the price of silver there came decline
in the prices OF the products of the farm.
Poverty on the farm means poverty in tile city,
and thus it is that the root of the evil of which
San Francisco complains is found in the de-
monetlZatlon of silver.
The decentralization of silver is one of the
roots. but not the principal one. The fact
that it has cost San Francisco more to get
goods and distribute them than it has cost
cities not subject to a transportation mo-
nOpOly is the real cause of the loss of trade
which has produced dull times. San Fran
cisco shares with the rest of this world the
hardship resulting from a continual fall in
prices. In an exceptional sense we suffer
from the decay of the Industry of silver
mining, which at one time was source
of so much wealth. But the transporta-
ton problem is in our own hands, while
the silver problem is in the hands of the
general public
The morning call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1878-1895, 1893-05-31

harm has resulted, because we have an
exceptionally warm climate, without me-
neurological extremes of any kind. But
just as wires for lighting purposes were
recently placed on number of our streets
in subsoil conduits, so eventually there
will be large diminution. if not entire
abolition, OF overhead wires. Chief SuIli-
van of the Fire Department would be glad
TO see the subsoll system generally in OPP
GRAFTON. There is certainly no necessity
to put up trolley-wres in leading thor
oughfares. If fair trial were given to
the secondary battery plan of propelling
cars we should get rid at once of disfgure-
ment and danger. According to reports
the cost of operating one storage battery
line near Boston is less than the trolley
plan. For very heavy grades neither
method is suitable. Gables will always be
needed for the hills of San Francisco. but
secondary battery cars would succeed on
Market. Montgomery, Kearny and num-
bers of other streets. AS cars can be
equipped for run of thirty miles without
recharging, a storage battery line between
North Beach and the P0trero is entirely
feasible. Meanwhile Market street Is
saved and the car companies are stimu-
lated to evolve other projects more conso-
nant with public requirements.

A GOOD PROSPECT.

Another irrigation project of great mag
nltude is to be carried out in the southwest
corner of Arizona, near the California
boundary. 1t is proposed to carry huge
dam across the ella, twelve miles east of
Yuma, and the calculation is that lake
Will be formed of sufficient capacity to ir-
rigate nearly four million acres Of land
that can be brought into high fertility. At
cost Of S5.000,000. or even thrice that
amount, there ought to be lucrative re-
turn 10 the capitalist, as such reclamation
would convert desert soil into garden.
All that has been done so far is to work
out the preliminary surveys. The region
Immediately around Yuma is celebrated
for fruits and vegetables raised early in
the season. At the end of April and in
the first weeks of May, apricots, berries,
figs, lines, peas and green corn are ready
for market, wheat and barley are har-
vested. and alfalfa has attained its third
crop. These are results which give an
immense advantage to the cultlyator. in
asmuch as he has the choice of market
all over the United States at top prices
For many of the delcacies which may be
produced as readily as potatoes elsewhere,
the Eastern cities will pay almost any
price demanded. The region which il is
proposed to irrigate is probably not much
inferior in the capabilities of soil to that
which has made Yuma famous. There is
certainly the temptation of gain to 60
ahead with the work.
