BISMARCK.

One Of the great men of the age is about
to pass away. Since Napoleon no man
has risen TO such eminenee in Europe. he
was not born in the purple. nor was his
rise made easy by the possession of large
wealth. He worked his way up as our
Lincoln did, and became greater than the
monarch he served. In fact, pretty much
all the glory that the frat Emperor's grand
son now enjoys was cast upon the imperial
throne by the first Emperor's great Prime
Minister. There is a certain ground for
comparison between the work Of Lincoln
and that Of Bismarck. The former held
all conditions second to the preservation
of the union Of American States; the lat
te. kept the union of German States stead
ily in view. BE had become the ruling
spirit in Prussia before the war Of 1901
with France, and the alliances which
were crowned with such a succession Of
victories paved the way for the creation
of an imperial government. of which the
King Of Prussia became the Emperor and
Bismarck the actual ruler. Had William l
lived TO the present day the Prince would
never have known the bitter disappont-
ment Of being cast from power. Most
Emperors' Prime Ministers have held their
places at the caprice of a monarch, but so
far as Bismarck was concerned, the first
Emperor of Germany had no capri ces.
he knew that the imperial throne
had been created by Bismarck. and he was
as loyal to his great Minister as the Minis
ter to him. Personally Bismarck does not
appear TO have been an entirely lovable
man. He was high tempered, dictatorlal,
impatient of opposition and disdsinful Of
smaller minds. de had frequent Guarrels
with the Reichstag, which body, however.
he always brought to his way of thinking,
or at least of aiding. With the Emperor,
however, il was so well understood that
Bismarck's policy was TO be carried out
that no conflicts are reported between
them. Probably the event in Bismarck's 5
life which most completely took him by
surprise was the present Emperor's an
nouncement that he could get along with
out Bsmark. Coming from a young man
OF thirty who had shown more personal
vanity than real ability the announcement
was astonishing. Bismarck might we'll be
surprised. And without doubt his surprise
grew from day to day as the fact devel-
oped itself that the young Emperor was
doing without Bismarck.
Ii the qualities OF statesmanship are 10
be measured by result. Bismarck will pass
into history as the greatest European of
his day. The empire be founded still
stands, and is. perhaps. the greatest power
in Europe. Napoleon at one time covered
larger area, but he left nothing to France
if we except his admirable code. Bis
marck buided so we'll that the structures
stood after the builders had fallen.

Supervisor Denman Calls a Halt on
Street Expenditures-Says the
Fund Is Nearly Out.

The Street Committee of the Board of
Supervisors yesterday formally agreed 10
recommend that the new steel bridge on
Fourth and Channel streets be accepted.
Street Superintendent Ackerson was in
structed to open it TO the public to-day.
When the committee met tEe reports Of
City Engineer Manson aud the Street Su-
perintendent were read. They reported
that the plans and specifications had been
complied with.
Supervisor Denman asked Engineer
OtWald. who drew the plans and specifca-
tlons, if it were not fact that two men
could not turn the bridge. and that it
could at present be only turned by steam.
Otwald replied that he thought il would
require four men to turn the bridge, but
that 1t could easily be turned by steam.
he said that the iron Of tie bridge had all
got rusted, and needed TO be oiled, after
which il would work easily.
Supervisor Denman again asked who
had authorized the extra work for which
dition to the contract price
Superintendent AckerSon and Engineer
Otwald both denied that they had author
iZed the extras. Further consideration of
the payment for the extra work was post
pOned, aud the committee decided 10 report
in favor of accepting the bridge. 1t also
instructed the Street Superintendent TO
open the bridge to-day.
Contractor McMahou said if the bridge
was opened prior to its formal acceptance
by the board he would protest.
The committee took up street matters
generally, and Supervisor Denman spoke
in way shat startled his confreres.
Gentlemen" be said, lit is time we
were going slow. l have been making in
vestigatons and find that the street fund
is almost exhausted. Only two and a
half months of the fiscal year have gone
By aud yet | understand there is prac-
tically nothing in the street fund when all
the work ordered shall have been paid for.
The board has ordered within q week
SOS, COO worth of work. 1t will soon come
TO pass that the Auditor will refuse to
audit the bills of the Street Department
because the fund will be exhausted Do
you wish to find yourself in that posi-
tlon? he asked Superintendent Ackerson.
mo, l do not" replied Ackerson. But
you cut OF my appropriation this year. I
have nothing TO do with the work the
board orders, although it comes out of nv
funds. The Supervisors are eating it all
up"
Denman continued, saying that the
greatest care should be exercised in the
ordering of work. and that be would have
a report on the subject at the next meet
Ing, to be held on Monday afternoon.

CHEAP TRANSPORTATION is THE
THING.

The Visalia Times tells how the people
on the coast near Monterey we're paying
75 cents for a poor article of watermelon
at time when the finest varieties of that
fruit were unstable in Tuare County
fields for the reason that transportation
ate M not only all the profits, but the
melons as well. The Times ADDS that IL
the Fresno and Monterey Railroad would
just 90 through theiinterior counties. they
could supply the coast counties with all
kinds Of fruit at reasonable prices. There
is great deal Of this Kind Of waste In
California. A large percentage Of our
labor is idle and we are paying the East
and Europe TO do work we might do at
home. Cheap transportation will help to
solve the problem.

the same man is President now who was
President when the exclusion act Of 1888
was rushed through Congress and signed
by the President in a day. That act
really gave the Chinese ground for CON-
plant. inasmuch as it turned from our
ports Chinese who had left home with gen.

them 70 land in the United States. There
was not even the courtesy of thirty days

The cable news about Bismarck is grave
The veteran statesman is evidently on his
death bed, his sun going down TRANQUILITY
amid the regrets of unified nation that
kn ew his grand qualities as a master of the
art of diplomacy and statecraft, and that
made allowance for his overbearing ten
dency in internal affairs. His career has
ended sooner than people had thought
when Emperor William dropped him as
the pilot of state soon after his accession.
Politically there can be no effect from the
eX-Chancellor's demise. He was abso-
luteiy out Of Office without hope of coming
back to ii, and all that was left for him
was to arrange his papers and leave
material for his memoirs. Germany has
gone on well without him, a remarkable
proof Of how easily the greatest are missed
in the tumultuous affairs Of the world.
Times are getting dull, indeed in a
parched land when the San Francisco
Stock Board has not a transaction to regis
ter. Old stockings are now without foot
and speculation seems to be famishng.
Seventeen years ago there was a con trast,
when stocks jumped up hundreds OF dol
lars per share in a week and were so very
ascendant as to drag oreless mines up with
them like veritable bonanZas. 1t is in
vain to sigh for a return of that boom
epoch. Those who reflect on its wild
phases of reckless plunging know that a
great deal of the money which enriched
the few came out of pockets quite extrane-
Gus to the mines. The glories of the Com
stock are dead. During the halcyon
period the members of the board were
affluent and thought lightly of amounts
which would now seem a fortune. Bank
tellers shoveled the money about so fast
tn at they occasionally made mistakes of
hundreds In gold pieces, and the clerks
who collected payments pocketed hun
dreds week in commissions to call an
other time.
The grand rush of hundreds of thou
sands into the Cherokee strip has taken
place and the tension is relieved among
the boomers. Many who have waited on
the boundary line whole fortnight have
made tremendous sacrifices to gain the
best that it is possible to obtain in the new
region, whether in town lot or farming
prairie. Only 1.-THE may hope for con-
teDtment aud prosperity. and the great
majority, having the nomadic habit. will
soon be ready to boom again somewhere
else. The excitements Of speculation have
been enjoyed, and now the reaction of

in progress in that country, and it was
found difficult to communicate with the
new Nicaraguan Government The Navy
Department responded by ordering the
Detroit to GrsytOwn as soon as she can be
got ready for sea. or course a vessel is
never ready. but it is thought that the
Detroit will start within four or five days
after orders were received. Without doubt
the Secretary OF the Navy tries TO do the
best be can with the vessels at his disposal,
but to sn observer il seems a little odd
that one should SO seldom be where one is
especially needed.

RICHARDSON RESIGNS.
New Superintendent Appointed by
the Fish Commission.

The Board of Fish Commissioners.
Messrs. j. d. Redding, William Murdoch
and Fl. L.. Macneil. met yesterday morn
ing to finish the business Of the Fridays
adjourned meeting.
The case of Mr.. Richardson of the Sisson
hatchery was first concluded. His resig-
nation was on due motion accepted and
w. Shelley, who for some time past has
been travelling over the State distributing
fish spawn. was appointed superintendent
of the Sisson hatchery, at salary of 500
a month.
Mr.. Richardson was ordered to 20 to
Pokegama to repair the fish-ladder, and the
supervision of fish-ladders all over the
State was designated as his future duty.
1t was likewise determined to build a
pier at Beswick, on the klamath River.
and put the Sisson hatchery in good condi-
tion.
MIR. Richardson was also ordered to pro-
ceed with Mr.. Huntto Marriott Lake to gather
spawn, and arrangements were made in
reference to patrolling the southern part
OF the State
1t was resolved that the expenses of the
Commissioners who should attend the
convent ton at Chicago should be allowed
by the board.

AN oDOROUs COMPARISON.

The Stockton Independent would make
things easy for the Chinese 10 respect to reg
istration for the reason that they owe no al
legiance 10 the United States and acted
upon the advice Of American lawyers.
The Independent continues:
with Cleveland, Gresham, Carlisle and Olney
the case Is radically different. Cleveland prides
himself on having been called a splendid
American, Gresham posed a few months ago
as the most honest Judge in America. Carlisle
is regarded by the people in the South as
model statesman and Olney-well Olney may
be somewhat excusable, for be was but very
ordinary corporation lawyer until Cleveland
lassoed him and pulled him into prominence.
