SUGAR SPECULATION.

1t is we'll at all times to make speculation
by legislators in products concerning
which they may be called upon to legislate
a disreputable use of influence derived
from their public station. A Senator
who would speculate in sugar while vot-
ing to affect the market value of sugar by a
change of duty could not be expected to
see any wrong in any act that might not
land him in prison. But in respect to the
recent furry in sugar stocks, there has not
been much positive inside information.
No one knows yet what the outcome will
be. No one knows yet whether the duty
will be higher on refined sugar than upon
raw sugar. The chance for speculation
comes in at this point. Stock in the sugar
trust will be more valuable If there is a
higher duty on refined sugar than upon
raw. The sugar property that will be
most seriously affected by proposed legis-
lation 10 the Louisiana cane-sugar planta-
tions and the sugar-beet factories in Cali
fornia and elsewhere. These properties
are not dealt in by the New York Stock
Exchange. Sugar as there quoted means
stock in the trust-otherwise in the con-
solidated refneries.

THE GOLD GOING.

The people of the United States owe
Europe about So, SOC. 600. 900. Estimates
run higher. but the sum named is consid-
cred within bounds. This Indebtedness
is made I'D of State and municipal bonds,
railroad bonds and corporation bonds. In
some cases Investments take proprietary
form, but in larger part Understanding
bonds are preferred. At per cent the
interest on $500. 100000 is S100OO0.0OO
This in round numbers is the sum the
United States has to send abroad each
year. There are two ways of paying this
debt-by an excess of exports over i'm
ports or by an export of gold. Under the
present tariff there has been an excess of
exports, but under the Wilson tariff there
Will certainly be an excess of imports. We
have therefore TO pay the excess of i'm
ports in gold and &c export Sl00,000000
each year to pay interest with. How
under these conditions does Mr.. Cleveland
expect to preserve the gold standard
Does he imagine the people will allow the
treasury to issue bonds year after year to
get the gold to maintain gold payments
with? If he does another disappointment
is in store for him.

HOW PEOPLE ARE ROBBED.

Everybody knows that citizens of San
Francisco are often robbed through the
machinery of the Street Department, but
few are aware of the way in which the
robbery is effected. A case came before
the Street Committee few days ago
which showed how it is done The block
on Vallejo street, between Octavia and
Laguna. was paved with macadam less
than three years ago; as it is portion of
the street over which there is no hsavy
travel it was thought that macadam would
answer for many years. In fact, the pave
ment is in good condition; there are three
or four small holes, but they could be re-
paired with couple of loads of rock. The
owners of property on the block were thus
surprised to observe some two or three
weeks ago the usual notice that tue Street
Department proposed to repair the block
with Belgian blocks or the pouItice pave
meDt. Those among them to whom it
would not be convenient, in these hard
times, to pay paving bills prepared the
customary protest. and much curiosity was
felt as to which of the lot-owners was de-
manding the proposed Improvement The
protest went from house to house, receiv-
ing willing signatures everywhere, until
all the owners had been canvaSsed. 1t
then appeared that not one of the prop
erty-owners who would have had to pay
for the new pavement had asked for it or
thought it necessary. They were against
1t to man.
1t was not thought worth while to in
quire who had instigated the move. On
recent occasion, a party who stood in
danger OF being improved out of his lot
called at the Street Department and asked
who had petitioned the proposed improve
ment A deputy replied that there were
"a whole lot of people" who demanded it.
He was asked if he could name one who
had made any such demand, either
verbally or in writing. To this he an
swered that he hadn't time to stand there
answering fool questions" In fact. in
that instance, as in the instance of Vallejo
street, no one had asked for the improve
ment except the contractor who was to
make money out of it.
This sort of thing is going on all over the
city. A contractor finds a residence block.
each side OF which contains houses whose
owners can presumably afford to pay. He
marks it down for new sewerage or new
pavement. The Street Departments ac-
c0p'o nIo Suesesliob, anu cerIl1eS 10 the
Street Committee that this is an improve
ment which is urgently needed; the COM
mittee. unless it happens to contain one or
two honest and wide-awake members,
concurs. and job is ordered which not in
frequently improves some poor person out
OF his property, and which is not asked
Tor by any one. The compensating ad-
vantage of the system is that contractors
continue to make money in spite of the
hard times, and the payement rings and
the big-kettle ring all thrive. A popular
notion prevails at the City Hall that the
Street Department officials do not grow
any poorer through these jobs. The only
protection citizens can hope for is from
the Street Committee of the Supervisors

CANADA.

Our northern neighDor is being written
about from three points of observation
and desire. First there is the Canadian
who is thoroughly British in feeling, who
contemplates the harmonious development
of the Dominion as a British dependency !;
second. the Canadian who wants to see his
country independent. and finds rather
drawbacks than advantages in its present
relation TO Great Britain, and third. the
American-Canadian who perceives the
grandest future for Canada as a number
OF States in the American Union. Each of
these three types of loyal Canadians may
be understood and respected, but there is
fourth kind who would have Canada re-
main politically independent. and yet be
admitted to all the commercial benefits
which would result from union with the
United States. There are some represen-
tatives of the fourth kind in the American
Congress. The tariff just reported gives
Canada pretty free run of the American
markets.

shrinkage includes stocks, bonds. loss on

A STUPID BOOK.

Trash, and dull trash at that" Much OF

paper reports. The Herald says: with
change of names and local descriptions
the various chapters of the work on these

lied and vile sections of London or New

of Mr.. Stead 10 compiling aud printing the
