WE are told that the English Ministry
now confesses that during the pendency
of the Siam difficulty, England and
France crossed thin ice, so far as mainte-
relations between the two Powers were
strained all knew, but that they were at
any time on the eve of war is probably
an exaggeration. Before war would have
resulted negotiations after protests must
have been exhausted. Nevertheless
monarchical Europe is always upon the
edge of liability Of war. With the dis
contented classes waiting their oppor-
tunity. the Nihilists plotting in Russia,
the Socialists fighting in the open in
Germany, the Republicans preparing TO
rise in Greece, the Royalists and Bour-
bons waiting to find weak places in
French armor. France watching the
chance to revenge herself upon Germany,
the Turk holding his States by the
feeblest of tenures, Russia covetous of
the Porte's possessions in Europe and
pushing her frontiers toward India,
Egypt a bone between Italy. France,
England and other Powers, Austria
Hungary in a state of unrest and jealous
and fearful of Germany, the Pope doing
all that churchman may to re-establish
clerical jurisdiction, the whole of Europe
is in the condition of a powder magazine
with the train laid and open, ready for a
spark from any quarter to fire the po-
litical mine and inaugurate war. But
England and France least of all others
have reason to fear each other or expect a
rupture of friendly relations.

PROTECT THE "FLAPPERS

Alleged Ruthless and LawIess
Slaughter of Young bucks.
The attention Of the Iaw-abiding
sportsmen of the county is called to the
fact that down along the river there are
Portuguese who nightly violate the law by
Staying young ducks.
There are plenty of ducks bred in the
tules about here to afford sportsmen ex-
cellent shooting during the first month
of the open season if they were protected
as the law intends they should be- vet
the sportsmen of the county allow them
selves to be robbed of their rights.
In this city there are at least four we'll
organized clubs, and one or two others
outside the city. The total membership
of these clubs is sufficient, at a very small
individual assessment, to raise a fund
that would pay some good Deputy
Sheriff to visit the sloughs and lakes
frequently during the next month or six
weeks and arrest every scoundrel who
may be detected killing the young ducks.
OF course there are Constables in every
township whose sworn duty it is to arrest
and prosecute all violators of the laws,
but some of them do not seem to regard
their oaths as of any consequence, and
they evidently are correct in that par
ticular.
Therefore the organized sportsmen
should ''chip in" couple of dollars each
and make an example of somebody.
gentleman who came up the river
road the other evening is reported as
saying that he saw Portuguese shoot
down at least twenty young mallards in
the vicinity OF Gourley's Lake.

OUR MONOPOLY
Inc Antioch "Ledger'' Makes Dis

Inc Antioch "Ledger'' Makes Dis
covery About Railroad Rates.
1t is almost second nature tor Cali
lornians TO heap abuse upon our railroad
system. During recent visit to Chicago
we were reminded that this abuse was apt
10 De tnoughtless and unreasonable. We
nave all talked SO much against the rail-
ROAD, as monopoly that charges eX-
tortlonate rates and fares, that we have
actually come TO believe that it is one of
the most oppressive institutions in the
land. While in Chicago we had occasion
10 VISIT Rockford, city of about 10000
population, eighty-six miles from
Chlcago. When we went to buy ticket
we found that they cost S2 50. We
thought that 81 80 for eighty-six miles
rue was pretty steep, and concluded that
some railroad must have a monopoly of
the business. Why, we reflected that
out IN California, where the oppressive
monopoly of the Southern Pacific had
the State by the throat, it did not charge
such high rate We reflected that one
could ride from San Francisco to Stock
ton, distance of ninety-two miles, for
?! oO, and from Sacramento, distance of
ninety miles, for 81 so. And in Chicago
where there was no railroad monopoly. it
cost y % TO ride eighty-six miles.
surrey, some railroad company
had monopoly Of the business
between Chicago and Rockford!
Cpon inquiry, however, we found that
such was not the case, but that four big
companies had railroads between Chicago
and Rockford, that there was a sharp
competition for business, and all charged
y % fare. Now, this is thickly settled
country, and there are towns like Elgin,
with 3O,OCO or 10000 population between
the places. The traffic in such a country
must be a great deal heavier than any
where in California. And yet in a coun-
try where there is a tremendous traffic
and competition the fare is - 81 to ride
eighty-six miles, while it is only ~ 80 in
monopoly-ridden California to ride ninety
miles. where there is no competition and
but little traffic. Between san Francisco
and Stockton the railroad of course has to
compete with steam boats, but between
san francisco and Sacramento there is
absolutely no competition.

NO ARGUMENT.

Executions by electricity are not proving
the entire success that the friends of the new
method looked for. There have been several
occasions where through ill-working machin-
cry or bad judgment on the part of operators
the executions have partaken more of the ma
ture of torture than judicial punishment for
crime-Woodland Mail.
That is no argument against electrical
execution. How often does the knot slip
and the victim die by strangulation, in
hanging? How many have been tor
tured by the rope breaking? How many
times have bungling Sheriff7s tormented
victims of the gallows? Was it in Cali
fornia not fifty miles away from Wood
land that too great fall through the trap
resulted in jerking the prisoners head off
to the horror of the spectators? How
many, many times has the trap" failed
to work, and the agony of preparation
been stretched out? How often has there
been mismanaged machinery Of the
scaffold? How many wretches have been
strung up twice, thrice, even four times,
before life could be choked out of them /?
Let our contemporary think twice before
it speaks once.
The record-union., 1893-08-09

AS to other financial legislation he makes
no suggestion, leaving the whole matter
to the good judgment of the peoples
representatives. but he makes an earn
est plea for the wage-earners of the coun-
try, who are helpless. The capitalist can
take care of himself; he deals with the
world as his field of action; at the worst
his store can little be reduced; but the
wage-earner cannot hoard his labor he
is in the position of one whose capital and
earnings are at the mercy of influences
over which he has no control. Financial
distress resulting in industrial cessation
means for him ruin and starvation at
once. These people must be saved
from the evils of that for which they are
not responsible. AS whole, the message
is strong, dignified and statesmanlike in
tone, and in matter it is worthy of un-
equivocal commendation by the Ameri-
can people.
OF course the silver men, Iree-coiners
and politicians will reply to this message
that it is the voice of the money changers
OF Europe and the Spectators of Wall
street, forgetting that Wall street is re-
sulting condition, not a cause in the fnan-
cial world, and that the money changers of
Europe have no concern about US except
to profit by our mistortunes. That the
President would conspire with them
against his country is too infamous an
assumption to even be suggested. Never
theless, the assault: will he made, and
the necks of the Rothschilds and the tail
of the British lion will be twisted with
renewed oratorical vigor. Unfortunately,
if these are chargeable to any extent with
the troubles of the times, both are utterly
needless of our vituperation. We saw
Rotchschild rhetorically dragged about
the stage at Ogden in the eTransmississippi
Congress, and, metaphorically. his dis
figured remains mike ed up with those of
the Wall-street gold bugs, and cast to the
populace for rending; but 50 far as we
have heard the foreign bankers and the
home spectators still live and continue
to do business at the old stands.
Seriously it is time that this people
came down to the level of reason and
ceased to indulge in the vituperative
scourgings of people we cannot reach,
and who are entirely careless of our as
saults. We have recently had a fair
sample of what such savage raving
amounts to when the financial laws of the
world are under debate. Governor Waite
and his "blood-to-the- bridles' following
actually succeeded in so alarming capital,
the coward, that Colorado was at once
visited with woes it might have escaped.
The rant in the Chicago Convention pro-
duced an immediate decline in American
securities abroad from which they have
not rallied, and will not until sober and
decorous declaration by Congress con-
vinces the world that the oratorical
cloud bursts of theWaite stripe do not rep
resent the sentiments of the American
people, and that we are not prepared just
at this moment to erect wall about the
Nation and cut off all communication
and intercourse with mankind of all the
other quarters of the globe we inhabit.

FRANK OPINION
hy an Interior Journal About tas -tal
Road Convention.
iCapfo Tpooa

Santa Rosa Republican,
The work Of preparing Tor this import
ant meeting is going steadily forward.
The Committee of Promotion with head
quarters at Sacramento is doing all that is
required at present. Mr.. McClintock, the
engineer ot the Massachusetts Highway
Commission, has agreed to present a
paper, as Will also Engineer McCIintock
OF San Francisco. There will be an ad-
dress by the Chairman of the Committee
OF Promotion on calling the meeting to
order, and it is proposed to leave the
other portions of the programme TO be
arranged by the convention.
The public press has done good work
IN showing the waste and enormous eX-
pense incident to poor roads and the ad-
vantage OF good ones. The poor returns
that come from expenditures on the roads
with the present lack OF system has been
emphasized. Thus the people have been
educated as to the necessity OF reform.
But there is difference of opinion, wide
difference of opinion as to the policy that
should be pursued. While all are agreed
that some change is imperatively neces-
sary, there is no agreement in California
as to the methods that should be adopted
1t Is hoped that the discussions of the
coming convention will throw some light
on this subject and result in the enter
prlsIng, progressive people of the State
reachlng an agreement as to the most
economical policy to be pursued here.
We regard this convention as being of
great consequence to all our people. The
road problem is of prime importance and
OF very difficult solution. 1t is under
discussion in all parts of the United
States. Conventions, many of them,
have been held in other States. The best
methods for others are not necessarily the
best for us. We may receive valuable
suggestions from the experience of others.
but we must adopt the plan best suited to
our own conditions to get the best results.
Hence the need of consultation and dis
cussion.

TREY SAY IT'S AMBIGUOUS

Deputy Jones' Complaint.
The attorneys for the Board of Super

Hughes, filed demurrer in the Superior
Court yesterday to the complaint of
Assistant District Attorney j. Charles
Jon es.
This is the suit in which Mr.. Jones
seeks to compel tho Supervisors to audit
his salary demand.
In the demurrer il is set forth that the
complaint lis am biguous in this, that it is
alleged therein that the plaintiff was en-
ployed by the Board of Supervisors to
assist the District Attorney and advise
the board upon questions of legal ma
ture by them submitted, and that plaint-
iii consented to act, and did act, under
such enployment; but it cannot be ascer-
tanned from said complaint whether
plaintiff acted in the capacity of Assist
ant or Deputy District Attorney and per-
formed services as auch, or that he acted
and performed services as special counsel
or advisor for the Board of Supervisors

As A specimen of wild-eyed and
Podunk banking. the Pacific Bank of
San Francisco is certainly entitled to the
palm. Its example is a fair one Of the
sort of fnanciering we should have were
the Democratic programme carried out,
and State banks of issue given full
swing. It is something remarkable. by
the way, how small all the Democratic
