THE QUESTION OF SUBSIDIES.

The next Democratic Congress will proba-
bly, be hostile to subsidies to ocean steamers.
1t will. no doubt, live up to contracts
already made, but will oppose any eXten-
sion Of that policy. We have made start
under the present law; but it does not 60
as far as its friends desire. OF as our ship
ping interests require. Great Britain pays
subsidies to ocean steamers which amount
in many instances to dividend on the cost
of the vessels. Some OF these are in the
shape of allowances for carrying the mails.
Others are grants made on condition that
the steamers shall be enrolled in the naval
reserve, ard subject to the call of the Gov
ernment in time Of war. Some ten or fifteen
years ago, Germany and France began the
policy of subsidizing ocean steamers. ana
large sums are annually voted for the pur-
pose. The example was followed by Italy
and Spain. The continental powers adopted
the policy because il was in line with the
protective system which they then decided
to embrace. But England adheres to it, in
opposition to her general economical policy,
on the ground that the national interest re-
quires the extension of her commercial
navy at the general expense of the people at
large.
1t is perfectly clear that il the United
States tries to restore its commercial navy.
without the use of subsidies, in opposition
to nations which subsidize theirs, the result
will at least be doubtful, and in any event
will be slow In coming Our ship-builders
and ship-Owners may be able to hold
their own in competition with European
ship builders and ship-owners, If the latter
enter the contest single But If the
Europeans are backed by their Govern
ments, and their respective nations pay any
losses which ships sailing under their flag
may incur, while American ship-owners
have to pay their losses out of their own
pockets, it is probable the latter will be
driven from the sea- II Europe persists in
subsidizing, we must subsdize also. And
we must not do the thing in q half-hearted
way.
No one can fOretell the future. and
though from present appearances the
United States seems destined to career of
unbroken peace. it is impossible to say that
war will never break out again. When 1t
does, victory will be apt to perch on the BAN
ner of the nation which can command the
largest and swiftest steamers and the most
widely distributed depots of coal. Nothing
but the overwhelming fleets of England
saved her from becoming a satrapy of
France-like Spain, Italy and Germany
before the battle of Austeritz. If Napoleon
had once effected the landing he planned
all England could not have saved the city of
London and the kingdom of Great Britain.
What has happened may happen again.
The preservation of American interests may
depend on the naval force which can be
brought to bear on gwen point, and that
force cannot be improvised.

OUT OF LINE.

4-he San Jose Herald reads certain cler-
gytpen alecture for the hostile attitude they
have assumed to the Gesry snti-Cbinese act.
The Herald says:
For one Chinaman who has ever pretended to
be converted, ten white people have been re-
.pehed from the churches altogether by the
maudiln sympathy of the ministers with coolies
ane ceolylsm, and surely the salvation OF a white
man is worth as much In every sense as the sal
Satfon of a cody.
"Whilethe general character of the clergy
:compels the admission that they are sincere
in their opposition to Chinese exclusion.
the. wisdom Of their policy is not so appa-
rent. A clergyman. is not so absolute in
leadership OF thought In these days that he
can afford to be out of line with tue people
2in respect to policies which affect their tenn
poral welfare. II the body OF workingmen
find Chinese competition injurious, they
viii not be guided by class who are not
subject to the competition of which they
complain. The TACT that clergymen, with
here and. there an exception, take theChi-
nese SIDE OF The pending controversy, has
without doubt i'm aired the confidence the
masses Of the people have reposed in their
spiritual advisers. In respect TO the Geary
registration law the opposition of the clergy
Will work harm to the Chinese themselves

NAVAL CONTRACTS.

Under bin which has passed Congress,
the Secretary OF the Navy may award a
contract to construct certain gunboats
authorized to any bidder who is willing to
do the work at the sum named in the lowest
tender. Thus contractor whose offer
would be rejected under ordinary circum-
stances may yet be commissioned TO pro-
ceed with contract If he comes down to
the Seeretary's terms. Hence. without loss
to the treasury, Mr.. Irving NJ. Scott,
II his bids be higher than those of the
Cramps for the new vessels, may hope to
secure one or more Of the contracts. For
whatever way the matter can be managed,
1t Is prudept to give encourag ement to q

number Of shipyards. SO that the country
may be prepared for emergencies when
vessels are needed in q hurry. 1t is run
ming too much risk to let oil private work
on war vessels go to one firm on the At
lantic Coast, when circumstances more than
ever urgent render it necessary that the
Pacific Coast should have one port well
equipped for naval purposes. Had the pro-
vision referred to been in operation re-
Gently. the building Of the Iowa would have
been assigned to the Union Iron Works.

The burglar who goes hunting OH his own
account and conceals the nature of his mid
night errand from his wife is hardly better
off in the long run than the crook who
forms working partnership. Honesty
among thieves being unknown for any long
period when detectives have got clew, the
solitary operator has the advantage that
nobody plays informer upon him. but he
must have dealings with the world to dis
pose OF his booty, and then his footmarks
may be traced. A young Danish carpenter
who has committed a number of burglares
in a style TO make Older members of the
profession envious. now laments the day
he gave up the jackpane for the brace, bit
and drawer-opener II confined his depre-
dations TO first-class wares in silver and
jewelry, kept his own melting-pot and
molded his own ingots and, unfortunately
for himself, sod them to dealers. The con-
version into cash betrayed him. He is
young, aud sojourn in jail may cause him
to bark back to honest ways. Berkeley
and oakland are relieved Of q troublesome
visitor.
Supervisor Denman describes with dlated
eyes the Calaveras watershed of the Spring
Valley Water Company. He says there is
sufficient gathering-grOund In the valley OF
the Calaveras Creek alone to supply city
OF 2,0O0,000 inhabitants. This would be
kt ALL liIR DbWS IL GOdu rEaHGiScO ndQ even
half that population, but at present the
water demands of the city do not call so
much for an increased supply as for a re-
duction CT rates. The area Of the water
shed is 700 square miles, and it stretches
from Mount Diabo 20 Mount Hamilton,
and includes Lvermore Valley. If only we
had coal and iron at hand as well as water,
what might not this city become?
The pressure OF business upon an out
going President no less than upon an out
going Congress is severe. OF this we may
judge from the fact that President Harrison
upon reaching the CAPITOL yesterday had
the usual pile of legislative bills 10 convert
by his signature into acts, and, to accommO-
date him by keeping time waiting, the
hands of the clock were turned back thrice.
The multitude would know when noon had
come by their watches.
The degree of deferential regard paid by
a great railroad company TO the decision of
law court is illustrated peculiarly by the
Illinois Central. The United States Su-
preme Court decided that the lake front of
Chicago belongs to the city and that this
particular company had no right to lay
down lines on the strip without a franchise.
This decision was rendered in December,
but the company perhaps keeps in view the
urgency OF preparing for the exhibition,
and 1t has large force of men ready for
track-laying on the forbidden ground. To
