GEMS OF ORATORY.

Senator Smith of New Jersey has been
highly complimented for speech from
which an admiring editor culls the follow
ing gems:
The little experience have had in politics
has taught me that the surest cure for dema-
gogy is talk.
Ii the time should come to draw the contrast
between the creditor who asks merely for his
own, and the debtor who would reduce his
obligation by act Of law. it will be interesting
to see which will impress the public as the
honest and which as the dishonest man.
Can 1t be thar the East helped to develop aud
build up the West only that IL might rejoice in
the wreck of Its own creation? 1t seems in
credible.
The people have the right TO use silver, but
silver has no right to use the people.
Two of these alleged scintilations of
wit disclose an idea. The creditor who
asks merely for his own and the debtor
who would pay less than he owes. is a neat
way of concealing the fact that at present
it is the creditor who asks more than
rightly belongs to him and the debtor who
is willing to pay all he justly owes. Tables
OF statistics show that within twenty years
the purchasing power of money has in-
creased. In other words, dollar will buy
more now than dollar would IN 1873,
when silver was dem onetized.
Now, to the extent of this increase the
creditor is asking more than is his due.
He does not ask larger number of dol
lars, but as each dollar will buy more now
than it would in 1878 he asks more of
everything else but dollars. The debtor
class contend only for the establishment
of the relations between money and CON-
modities which existed before the demon
etization of silver. Which, then. will i'm
press the public as the honest and which
as the dishonest man?
The East is not entitled to any particu-
lar credit for building up the West. When
Horace Greeley gave the advice to the
young man to $50 West" be did not nave
the good of the West especially at heart.
He was helping to relieve the East Of
what was under then existing conditions
surplus population and putting the young
man in the way to help himself.
The people have right to use silver,
but silver has no right to use the people. +"
the New Jersey orator tells us. Very
good. When has silver tried to use the
people? What good would it do silver If it
should use the people? Ii we suppose
the New Jersey orator intended to mean
the owners of silver what have they asked
but the restoration of conditions which
prevailed from the adoption of the consti-
tltion up to 1873?

with your experience of half a month.
what do you hope to do for the winter?''
asked CALL reporter of Captain McFee,
who has supervision of the work.
1T depends largely on the number ol
men who will find employment" was the
answer. II should say that about 0ne-third
of the men we now have are only too anx-
ious for work and will stick closely to
whatever they find to do: about one-third
when they get work will hold on till some
thing better or easier turns up. and the
other third-well. I'd rather not speak
about them.
Mayor Ellert has interested himself
very much, so has Max Pepper, c. r.
Eager, who has the street sweeping con-
tract, and Charles Brown, the contractor.
They will have meeting next Monday to
devise means 10 employ some of the ID en-.
We expect considerable relief after that
day. Mr.. Eager, we know. will supplant
some of his machines with men and little
quarry work is promised"
"How is the Salvation Army coming out
financially in this undertaking"
1--WE can't tell. Up to last Monday we
had deficit, which had to be made up from
Army funds. Contributions to date have
been as follows: Evening Post, S25;
George Montgomery. $40; Mayor Ellert,
$50; Balfour, Guthrie & Co., $50; Hunt
ington q Hopkins. $40; A. j. Ralston. Sell
W. GAOa CdMco VI. ulls ~OO, ~. II. Lhk6Ts
$50; the Builders Association, $25; J. j.
Hardy. 81; Mr.. Davis. 81, anonymous
amounts. SO so; collected by solicitors,
$50 80. Total, 1894.
1T costs now about S45 day for the
bare food, 10 say nothing Of wood and in
cidentals. If it turns cut that consider
able number of men are to be fed indefin-
itely. the best proposition is to charge five
cents q meal. We gave out over $4,000
meals last winter at that price. Ii man
can get one days work at ST. 25, he is
certain of food and shelter for week.
81 intend next week TO start some of the
children Of poor families to selling flow
ers. An active boy or girl can make from
81 to 81 % day at ii. My plan will be to
advance them enough mouey for one days
stock. and trust to their honesty for re-
payment. Hundreds of men about town
will cheerfully buy flowers when they
would not give to beggars, however
worthy. and if the children would wear
some badge to show they had the approval
of the Salvation Army sales would per-
haps be reader and larger"
Captain McFee's present intention is to
arrange that the unemployed be fed at the
Lifeboat. corner Sacramento and Kearny,
and that the sandlot be improved by the
erection of dormitories, bathhouse and

nANY WANT POSTS
In DR.. Levi G. Lanes
New Hospital.
A Building That Is Pronounced by
the Fire Commissioners the
Most Perfect in the City.

The model hospital which Professor L.
G. Lane is building as an annex to the
Cooper Medical Institute eXcites great in
terest.
Indeed. the doctor is overwhelmed will
applications from nurses. matruns and
others anxious to secure positions in the
institution. No appointments will be
made yet, however, for DR.. Lane is very
decided in his decision not to enter into
any explanation Of his plans for the dis
position of his muniicent gift till they are
formulated down to the minutest detail.
One reason for this is the fact that par
tial explanation might only be misleading
to the public.
"The fact is," observed DR.. Lane to a
CALL reporter yesterday, mo definite
plans have yet been adopted as to what
will be done with the hospital. We have
them under consideration, though.
The building was originally designed to
accomm odate 100 beds, but some alteration
was made in the plans and this number
has been increased TO about lou. Id the
children's department the boys and girls
each have two spacious dayrooms, and
sunny dining rooms.
All the IN ost recent sanitary methods of
heating, ventilation and sewage have
been carefully studied and applied In the
construction of the hospital. The whole
building will be heated by means OF steam
and hot air, which will also be applied to
the ventilating system.
SO much attention has been paid to pro-
lection from danger by fire that the Fire
Commissioners have pronounced the build
ing superior in this respect to any In San
rancisco. In addition to the safety in
sured by numerous fire. escapes and the two
stairways of iron all the interior staircases
are of iron, separated from the adjoining
rooms and halls by brick walls.
DR.. Lane has already spent quarter CT
a million in his gift of the site and build
ing of the Cooper Medical Institute, which
he named in memory of his uncle. DIR.
Elias Cooper, the founder Of the first medi-
cal school in San Francisco.
The donor of the new hospital has al
ready devoted long life to the relief OF
suffering. In building his latest gift be
has been actuated by the hope that when
his hands have relinquished his life's work
his wealth thus applied may be the means
of continuing to even gleater efficiency the
labor he has loved,

THE OCEAN BOULEVARD.
Engineer Grunsky's Report to Mayor
EIlert.

ElIert.
Mayor Elert received report from
Engineer Grunsky yesterday on the alleged
violation of the law by the Olympic Salt
Water Company, which is constructing its
pipes on the ocean beach. The Mayor sent
out Engineer Grunsky to examine the Sit
uation, after receiving a communication
from Adolph Sutro and a number of other
DrOperty-Owners and residents of the ocean
beach complaining that the ocean boule-
ward was being obstructed by the pipes Of
the salt water company.
Engineer Grnnsky's report was as fol-
lows:
Upon examination of the works now being
conducted by the Olympic Salt Water Com.
pany on the ocean beach for the sup.
port OF their suction pipe, | find that
an an elevation pGs about four feet above @ ordinary
high water, and that the pipe is to be supported
by rather unsightly pier constructed of slen-
der wrought iron, the top of which will be be-
tween three and four feet above city base, or
about ten feet above ordinary high water
This pier has its eastern or insbore end near
the high-water line OF the ocean. and extending
thence toward the ocean across the hard beach
sand lying between the lines Of high and low
water, will certainly be an undesirable beach
structure that will TO considerable extent OBJ
struct the use OF the beach by vehicles.
1 am informed that an open driveway. cas-.
lily accessible from both sides, will be main
tanned around the eastern end of the pier.
Ii is rather late at this time TO suggest modi-
fcatiOns. the supporting structure having been
nearly completed.
The plans of the work should have been
passed upon by the city authorities before the
contracts were let.
Mayor Ellert after receiving the report
said that he would see that the interest of
the public were protected, and that an
open highway would be maintained on the
ocean boulevard

AMERICAN LOCOMOTIVES
CHILE.

The Chilean Government recently in
vited bids for supply of locomotives, to
which England. France, Germany and the
United States responded. The American
bidders were success1ui. The incident,
very gratifying in itself, affords a free
trade paper an opportunity to say that the
success of the American bidders "brnshes
aside the cheap-labor plea which assumes
that because Americans pay higher wages
than their European competitors they
must therefore abandon competition in
foreign markets." The success of the
American bidders proves nothing except
that their bids were considered the most
advantageous to the Chilean Government
The iron industry in the United States is
much depressed in consequences Of the ap-
prehension that duties may be removed
and LOGON builders may in conse-
quence have sought work that in ordinary
times would not be accepted. Manufac.

The third man is John Mahany, said
to have been arrested once before for

got clear through his relations with the
Whaley, Boyd and Ciprico combine.
What bothers the customs officials is that
no tangible evidence in the shape Of any

They regret that the Hartley was not
speedy enough to overtake the boat be-
fore the opium was thrown overheard.
The fishing smack was well fitted for the
