d" HANG THAT DOLLAR LIMIT"

Supervisor Forman is reported in the
Examiner as saying: Hang that dollar
limit. If L could have my way would go
in for all these improvements" Mr.. For
man did not talk that way in November.
The platform on which he was nominated
made the dollar limit its fundamental
plank. The other parties did not dare to
take issue with it. No candidate hesitated
to stand upon it. II any official elected in
November switches off. he will be branded
as piHdge-b breaker. Perhaps it would be
well for Supervisors not to proclaim that
such brand will not affect their political
or social standing in this city. The pack
Of boodlers is now in full cry after the
dollar limit. The Wednesday night fire
gave them an opening. Men are standing
AT the corners of streets declaring that if
the Chief cannot get the apparatus he
wants he cannot put out the fires. These
men think. possibly, that the public can
no: distinguish between mismanagement
and parsimony. The San Francisco Fire
Department is the most expensive in pro-
portion to the size of the city In the
United States. 1t has fewer difficulties to
contend against than in some other cities,
in the fact that in the'residence part of the
Town tue houses are generally not more
than three stories in height. Although the
fact was demonstrated Wednesday night
that redwood will burn if fire is left to
Itself. especially if the wind is high, red
wood is the least combustihle of all build
Ing woods. A contemporary assumes that
because it did not oppose the fla mes the
other night like thick brick wall there is
no difference between redwood and pine.
This expression, however, is but par. of
the general attack upon the dollar limit.

THE ISLANDS MUST COME.

II begins to look as if President Cleve-
land and Minister Blount will be unable TO
prevent the Hawaiian Islands from drifting
to the United States. The tide has set in
that way. The President apparently
thought that be was strong en- ough to swim
against the tide, bat is beginning to see
that 1t is upstream work. One report now
is that he has authorized Minister Blount
TO negotiate new treaty, and other that
a treaty has been sent to the Ha waiian
Minister at WASHINGTON to be submitted to
the President. If Mr.. Cleveland is as TIRED
of swimming against The current as he is
believed to be. he will suggest some verbal
changes in the treaty that Harrison sub
mitted TO the Senate and let that body ac-
cPpt or reject it. as authorized to 10. The
Presidents admirers can but admit that
his management of the annexation propo-
stion has been feeble. he has developed
no policy but that of opposition TO the
preceding administration. If he had shown
what could be done in place of annexation
he might have stood some chance of taking
the bulk of his party with him. But the
poverty of his resour ces is dsheartening.
He arrests movement promising salts

WORRYING PASSENGERS.

The Treasury Department at Washing
ton has issued an order materially affect
ing the steamship passenger trade. 1t
applies the steerage regulations to the first
and second saloon passengers. ExplAna-
ttons are eXacted On now the alien pas
senger got his ticket, who paid for it.,
where he is going to, and whether he has
ever before been in the United States :
whether he has been in prison or an aims
house, or has been supported by charity /;
whether his notions of marriage extend to
polygamy; his intentions as to labor; his
physical health, his mental status and
whether he Is cripple or is deformed. A
number of other ques tions are on the list.
and after filling up the schedule at sea the
saloon passenger is not quite done with
his examination. He is 10 be subjected to
another investigation upon landing, and
should there be anything unsatisfactory in
his replies, he may be detained or de-
ported.
1t will readily be surmised that the Euro
pean OF means will not relish such an ex-
haustiye sitting of his antecedents. Some
of the questions might be embarrassing to
the good and honest. 1t is not an uncom-
mon thing in England to have been in
prison for debt. An orde: of court upon a
suit is made TO pay what is due; the money
is not paid; eventually this becomes con-
tempt of court and the debtor goes to Jail.
Patriots often make acquaintance with
Jalls IN monarchical countries. Michael
Davitt would have to answer in TIE affirm
ative. To put this admission formally
down in an immigration schedule would
have an awkward look, and without real
occasion man might be put on his de-
fense to clear his character. A portion of
all classes would but feel resentment at
the requirement of telling their age.
For the saloon passengers the passport
system IN all its rigidty would be prefer
able to the filling up Of such forms for
every voyage. There is nothing objection
able about a passport. With a photo
graph added it identifies the person, be-
cause at the time Of taking out there were
persons cogn Zant of the identity. There
are thousands Of peo pie who have crossed
the Atlantic scores of times. Others have
made the voyage over hundred times
To worry these people with such a list OF
questions seems wholly unnecessary. a
strict investigation of the steerage pas
sengers coming as immigrants is advis-
able. As rule they only cross the ocean
once and come to settle in America.
Therefore, they should show their fitness

THE PULPIT AND THE CHINESE

The Philadelphia Inquirer quotes THE
CALL as saying in respect to denunciation
of the Chinese registration act: There
seems TO be a certain connection between
the 100000 fund raised by The Six chi
nese Companies and the Indignant denun-
citation we hear on every side" The
lively Imagination Of the Inquirer con-
strues this as an intimation that the pulpit
has been bribed. As matter of fact, the
pulpit has been but one agency in this de-
nunciatiop. The act has been denounced
by every department of the Government,
by Chambers of Commerce, Boards of
Trade. public speakers, newspapers, law
yers, doctors of medicine as well as Of
divinity and professional phianthropists.
Why the Inquirer should select the pulpit
as tie agency aimed at is best known to
the nnderS tanding which directs the course
OF that paper. Let us now draw a con-
tFast which may enlighten the Inquirer.
In 1888 the exclusion act was passed. THIS
act absolutely deprived Chinese Of right
which the treaty of 1880 in express terms
eOnferred-the right of those in the United
States to 90 and come at will. The law
was enforced so relen tlessly that Chinese
arriving at this port under the belief that
their certificates would secure them a
landing were turned back. There was II OF
even the formal notice of purpose to alb
rogate the treaty But there was no out
cry then. The Supreme Court declared
the act constitutional. There may have
been here and there a protest against it,
but nothing like concerted outcrv.
The Chinese registration act simply
required Chinese in the United States to
register. II gave them a year in which
to do it, and warned them that if they did
not obey the law they would ne denied resi-
dence in the country. The registration
act simply imposes a condition upon
which Chinese might remain in the country.
But the Six Com panes ordered their chat
tells not to register and raised a fund to de-
feat the act Its ayowed purpose was to
work upon public opinion. Simultane-
ouslv with the announcement that there
was fighting fund Of S50O.0O0 an oulcrv
against The act went ur from all parts of
the country. The Inquirer joined in it
with such force of vociferation as it was
master of. Then a Justice of the Supreme
Court led the chorus. The principal news
papers of the Eastern cties-newspapers
which had been silent when the exclusion
act was enforced-ranged on the side of
the Chinese. The pulpit was but single
agency and no more bitter than the others.
Where then does the Inquirer find ground
Tor the belief that the pulpit was the
especial object of whatever structure THE
CALL may have made concerning the
Influences which are denouncing the regis

WAITING FOR CONGRESS.

The Washington Star says that Mr..
Cleveland has told members of Congress
that under no circumstances would there
be an issue of bonds unless especially
authorized by Congress. This is clearly
the right ground for the President to take.
AS matters now stand there is an issue be-
tween the President and Congress as to
the financial policy to be adopted. The
President wants the single gold standard.
Congress is on record in favor of the
double standard. The President cannot
carry out his policy without the co-opera-
ton OF Congress and the less he attempts
to the better for his reputation. Anv
issue of bonds that the Treasury Depart
ment can now make would be coin bands.
There is no authority to issue gold bonds.
Coin bonds have been paid in gold, but
may be paid in silver. Much of the pres
ent financial difficulty has arisen from the
uncertainty as the maintenance of the
gold payments. Consequently it is well
that all departments of the Government
shonld confer and agree, if possible, upon
a policy to be adopted. Meantime the
gold reserve will. unless there is an unex-

THE CABLE TO THE ISLANDS.

1t is stated from Washington that the
Government refuses to allow the report of
the AlbatrosS survey to be published. For
so strange a decision no reason can be
imagined except the usual red tape of the
circumlocuton office. The Government has
not thus far been authorized by Congress
10 lay able to Hawaii All that the act
required was that it should survey the
route and hand over the survey to any
individual or company which proposed to
undertake the work. The sooner the sur
vey is published and the larger the number
of persons who see it the sooner the cable
is likely to be laid
The main features of the suppressed
report have leaked out through the officers
engaged in the work. II is determined that
the terminal on this point will be the
mouth of the Salinas River, In Monterey
Bay. That river has secured out a chan
mel for itself in the bed of the ocean to Il
distance of about fifteen miles from the
coast. Al that point depth Of one and a
half miles is reached, and the bottom is
even, and gently shelving up to there.
For two hundred miles west of that spot
the bottom gradually falls until the depth
is about three miles, which is the normal
depth OF those portions of the Pacific
which are free from volcanic ridges or deep
cavities. This normal depth is preserved
for about 400 miles, and then the great
submarine mountain which is known to
geographers as Mount Belknap is eucoun-
tered. This mountain lies about 500 miles
west of San Francisco. 1t rises to within
half mile of the surface, and is sur
rounded by water three miles deep. When
it was discovered by the Tuscarora it was
not known whether it formed part of n
submarine range or was an isolated peak,
and the question was vital to cable-layers.
The Albatross sailed round it, and found
that it stood alone. Thus a cable can be
laid round it, passing 10 the south of it.
For eco miles west of Mount Belknap
the ocean bed preserves a uniform depth
Of about three miles and there are no

a distance of about 400 miles from San
Francisco, the water deepens to about
three and half miles. and maintains that
depth nearly to the coast of Hawaii. At n
point about 200 miles east of the island.
however, another mountain was struck,
which arises to within mile and a half of
the surface. This also is an island peak,
which at one time formed part of the vol
canic group 10 which the Hawaiian Is
ands belonged.
The bottom of the Pacific, between San
Francisco and Hawaii, is a soft ooze. con-

AGAINST THE FAIR.
Prominent Citizens Who Do Not
Consider the Scheme Feasible.

Mayor Ellert yesterday received a COM
munication from ex-Mayor E, B. Pond. in
which were inclosed a large number of
letters from prominent members of the
Chamber of Commerce and the Board of
Trade, advising against the holding Of a
winter worlds fair In San Francisco. Not
one failed to state that tie scheme was
impraeticable and would result in a failure
Captain Merry believed the proposed
fair not feasible on account of the difficulty
in raising The money. He thought that the
money so raised could be better expended
in providing for cheaper interior trans
portation.
S. B. Parrott was of the opinion that
S3, 060 COO would be required to bring the
exhibits from Chicago to San Francisco,
and that it was not POSSIBLE TO raise such
a sum in so short a time.
}. n. Knowles did not believe the
scheme would prove a financial success.
A. j. Ralst0n stated that the proposition
was fair one to look at, but did not be-
lieve it could be carried out in the time at
our disposal.
A. A. Watkins, Carey Friedlander, J. F.
Chapman, G. l.. Taylor and others took
similar views.
President Haywood of the Berkeley
Board of Trade wrote the Mayor yester-
day that he believed that $1,000, 900 could
be raised for the fair by the sale of tickets
throughout the State in advance of the
show.

ABOUT THE ROSE.
Should Be Divided Into
Three Glasses.
A Bad Financial Showing for the
Recent Exhibition of the State
Floral Society.

At the June meeting of the State Flora
Society yesterday afternoon a paper oil
the rose, written by George NJ. Strattor
of the Golden Gate Park. was read.
dwelt principally upon the mistake mad,
by many persons who adopt the same
method of classifying the rose, thereby
causing a confusion that is increasing every
year. Some simple method should be
adopted which would clear away useless
mystery and complication and would place
all admirers Of the rose on true basis as
to the properties of any variety they may
wish to grow.
Many roses are fertiliZed accidentally,
others by artificial means: the seeds are
sOwD, the product may be something new
or Il repetition. The person who has
raised new rose puts it into one class.
while it has qualities that would consign it
to different one.
To simplify the matter all roses should
be placed into three grand classes.
First-RoseS that have distinct and
separate periods of blooming and resting
continually throughout the year, called by
the French 'Remontant."
SecOnd-Those that bloom continually
throughout the year, without any tem-
porary cessation or rest, called lever
DIHUIuIuS, as Tie DOuf DOil, Julia, 6IC.
Thlrd-ThOse that bloom only once dur
ing the year in the summer moths.
These classes were Snbdvided by Mr.
Stratton into numerous divisions, showing
the manner in which each should be cared
for.
The secretary's report, which consisted
mostly OF matters appertaining to the re-
cent flower show held at the Pavilion,
showed that the society was considerably
in arrears by that enterprise. The ex-
penses were $3.50 80, while there are many
bills and premiums unpaid amounting to
S1314 81. The door receipts brought
S1517 Is. leaving deficiency of nearly
$3.50. A number of the member have not
as yet accounted for tickets given them for
sale. and it is expected that this amount
will cover the loss.
