A SERIOUS CHARGE.

Mr.. Henry B. Mayo makes the statement
that nomination to be Superior Judge by
the Republican municipal convention was
offered him for the sum of one thousand
dollars. The men who are implicated in
the transaction are of the class of political
workers who are supposed to do that kind
of work. Whether they are guilty in this
case does not yet appear. but the circum-
stantial evidence is such that the CONVEX
tion should choose between adjournment
sine die aud a reasonably conclusive dem-
onstration that Mr.. Mayo has stated what
is not true. This kind of work has been
in the air for some days. Aspirants have
intimated that they know what forms
we're necessary to secure a nomination. In
some cases such intimations may haze
been thrown out to cover the modification
of failure. The aspirant who refuses to
buy a nomination is moved up notch in

THE PRECIOUS METALS.

Advocates of the gold standard pretend
to find in a small increase of the gold
product of the world a solution of the sill
yer question. The increase of the golu
product viii, they assume, cause a rise in
the market valce Of silver. An increase
of $50. 600, 600 to SAC, 900, 900 of the money of
either metal has slight effect upon the
mass which constitutes the stock of the
worlds money. The amount of gold money
in the world is variously computed at from
S3,600,000.O00 10 $4,000, 100000. A few
million more or less does not make much
impression on this mass Of indestructible
gold. In all the years since gold and silver
have been accepted as money there has
been no large fluctuation of product. At
times one metal would be produced more
freely, but this period would be followed
by an excess in the production Of the other
metal. Thus gold had its twenty-year period
between 1S49 and 1869. Early in the sew
enties silver entered upon its flush period,
which lasted into the nineties. Yet there
is but little difference between the accumu-
lated stock of silver and that of gold. The
excess of gold is not estimated at more
than $500, 600. the com bined stock of
money of both metals being not far from
$1,000, co., 900. A lot of gold must be taken
from the earth to materially affect the re-
lation the stock of one metal holds to the
stock of the other.

OUT OF HER SPHERE.

A three weeks discussion of the proper
sphere Of woman in a contemporary has
not materially advanced the settlement of
the question, but a few pages from the
story OF the Peary expedition shows con-
clusively that woman's sphere does not
reach to the north pole. Admitting that
the men OF the Peary expedition have be-
come prejudiced against the woman Of the
expedition and have stated their side of
tie case pretty strongly, it is still reasona-
bic to suppose that in a famine period
their privations were greatly increased by
the favoriism nature would demand for a
woman with an infant at her breast
Whether or not Mrs. Peary had three OIL
stoves to keep warm by and the men but
half of one the fact Of the presence of a
woman, coupled with the mpossibility Of
providing comforts for all, must have given
just cause for complaint. 1t may be urged
that men ought willingly to make sacri-

Men do these things under ordinary con-
dltions and make nothing of ii. If Mrs,

Of the party the sentiment of the men
would have been appealed to. But as she
had gone with the party on a desperats

known that she could contribute nothing
to its success and would in all probability
materially assist 10 its failure, there was
less inspiration to chivalrous conduct.
Women who proclaim their ability to do
anything man can do and at the first
pinch show desire TO accept whatever
favors the fact Of their sex and its COM
paratlve weakness may inspire men to
grant them relieve men from the task of

they are Travelled. The path roads are
mere bride paths. which often follow
rocky torrent beds or cross inundated

Like everybody in Korea the soldiers hate
the Japanese. who have two or three times
tried TO conquer them, and who, by their
superior alertness and energy, have got
most OF the business of the country into
their hands, including the mint and the
banks. At times politics are lively. The
usual method Of effecting reforms is to
assassnate the Ministry and then force

AN INDUSTRIAL REVIVAL.

The st. Louis Globe Democrat reports a
material trade Improvement in that city.
This improvement is not based on the de-
preston of 1898 but on the good times of
1892. Tie improvement is local and pro-
eeeds from local causes. 10 fact new rail-
road connections are opening to st. Louis
merchants new territory. The journal says:
An extension of the Burlington line to Mon
tana and the Pacific Coast, by way of Billings
ana the Northern Pacific Railroad, is about to
be opened. BY this means the Burlington will
have direct communication over its own rails
from st. Louis TO Billings, and will shorten the
distance between this city and the important
railroad points In Montana and the States to
the west Of it from $50 10 $50 miles. Hereto
fore ST. Louis has, in certain degree, been
shut out of that region. 10 the advantage of
Chicago. The new line. however, Will change
all this, and Will make this town a strong com
petiiOr Of the Lake City and Of Eastern centers
for the trade of Montana, Wyoming, Idaho,
Washington and Oregon.
What this extension of the Burlington
line to Montana will do for st. Louis the
construction of local system of railroads
Will do for San Francisco. The purpose
in both cases is to hold present territory
and 10 secure new territory wherever
structiOn of the San Joaquin Valley Rail-
road will secure between San Francisco
and the southern part of that valley will
not only hold our present trade but enable
US to reach further into territory open to
competing cities. Distance between a
distributing point and the territory it
supplies is not fixed by miles but by cost
of service. Chicago, more than 20OO miles
from Bakersfield. is nearer than San
Francisco if it costs less to freight goods
from Chicago than from San Francisco.
One complaint made against the Southern
Pacific is that. being relieved from COM
petition, 1t has fixed charges between San
Francisco and interior points it should
supply so high that more distant cities have
cut into our trade. The building of the
San Joaquin Valley Railroad will recover
TO US much territory that we could nut hold
under adverse determinations. San Fran
cisco has made kind of do-nOthing re-
cord that the construction of this road will
break. 1t is kind of cold water plunge
which may cause this city TO hold its
breath for moment. but which will cause
a glow to succeed the first stunning

CHINA AND JAPAN.

Several late kilograms have been re-
ceived from the seat of war in Asia. They
impress the reader with their need of cor
roboration. They are all marked with a
strong sympathy for Japan. Whenever a
battle takes place it is "a decided Japan
ese victory; every skirmish is "com-
plete defeat" for the Chinese; the Chinese
armies are always 6emoralized and the
japanese armies animated by heroic valor
the Government at Peking is always going
to pieces. while the Government at Toxic
is Invariably resolute and bound to win.
All this may be so. but such intelligence is
so apparently one-sided that it awakens
distrust. Fair-minded people, who want
to know the truth about current transac-
tions, feel like waiting for the event be-
fore they make up their minds.
According TO the latest dispatches, the
Japanese have crossed the Korean from
tier and are on the march TO MoukdeD.
Their purpose to occupy that city was
stated in Toxic paper. from which an ex-
tract was la tely published in THE CALL.
Whether they are about to fulfill that pur-
pose depends on the state OF affairs in
Western Korea. The Japanese organs
state the battle of Ping Yang was Japan
ese victory, and was followed by the pnr-
suit of the defeated Chinese, who fled in a
westerly direction, and few days later by
the meeting and dispersion of the Chinese
army on the right bank of the I alu. The
Chinese admit Japanese success at Ping
Yang, but claim that the Chinese dis
patched re-enforcements to General Yeh,
and that the Japanese vainly endeav0red
to prevent their landing at the mouth OF
the Yalu. The next happenings will de-
pend on which of these two versions of
the present state of affairs is the true one.
If the Japanese have crossed the Yalu
the seat of war will be transferred to the
enemy's country. and to country favor
able to the movements of armies. From
Moukden, which is about 100 miles from
the sea, a level plain stretches to the Gulf
of Leoa Tong. In summer 1t is swampy,
but the swamps freeze over in October and
there is nothing to prevent The movement
of artillery. The city itself, which cou-
tains a population of about 160, ,00O, is on
an affluent of the Leao-Ho; it Is walled
and holds considerable garrison. If this
garrison, added to the army the Chinese
have in the field, cannot prevent the Japs
from taking the place China deserves to
lose it. especially as the invaders will be
| fighting far from their base, whereas the
Chinese are close to theirs. Moukden is
only about $50 miles from Peking, but
| formidable mountain ridges separate the
two.

UNWRLTTEN LAW,

The constitutional convention now sit
ting in New York has discovered that
there is no constitutional provision reauir-
ing it to submit the amendments it has
agreed upon to vote of the people. Il is
contended, however. that custom has taken
the place OF law 10 such an extent that the
referendum in respect to amendments to
the constitution has become kind of un-
written law. The convention, fortunately,
is not disposed to abuse the power it finds
in its hands. 1t will add to the amend
ments already agreed upon one requiring
future constitutional conven tons to sub
nit their work to vote of the people.
Whatever may be the fate Of other amend
ments the one comforting the referendum
will, without doubt, be accepted. The
trend of public opinion is that way.
