employing technical methods to defeat the
one can hardly conceive. No reputable
lawyer can think it wise policy to estab-
lish the fact of the ability of clique of
lawyers to pilot a murderer successfully
through the maZes of the law. The bar,
hardly less than the b nch, is an agency in
the punishment of crime. The respecta-
hility of the profession lies in the general
opinion of the community that its pur-
poses are consistent with the public
good. A lawyer appointed or retained to
defend an accused person is required to ex-
haust all honorable means TO establish the
accused persons innocence and to create
doubt as 10 his guilt. But the attorneys
duties as citizen and lawyer end with
the failure of honorable methods to do one
or the other. No lawyer has a right to
create or suppress evidence In the interest
OF his client Concerning Prendergasts
guilt there is no shadow of doubt. If
there is seeming lack of motive it should
be remembered that what is motive to one
mind is not to another. Men have been
known so change their politics in conse-
qnence Of failure to get Office, but Prem
dergast is the first on record to deliberately
plan murder on so slight motive. This
does not even imply that Prendergast was
insane. It implies that he was so i'm
portant person in his own estimation hat
failure 20 recognize his merits by another
was an offense to be punished with death.

OUR CRITICS.

The talking member of firm OF public
entertainers is reported as saying that San
Francisco audiences lack culture. The
fair entertainer gave in support of her
opinion the fact that portion of an audi
ence had walked out while one of the en-
tertainers was on the stage. 1t might be
urged that the act of walking out indi-
Gated rather lack of patience than of
culture. Many persons of admitted Gull
ture will not willingly submit to being
bored. Their conception of the require
ments OF good breeding does not include
submission to evils that can easily be
avoided. Other people without much cul-
ture have such keen sense of what they
consider propriety that they would submit
to any reasonable punishment rather than
wound another persons feelings. Again,
there are persons of high general culture
who have no ear for music. There are
others who have such sensitive ear that
much OF the singing they hear at popular
entertainments is positive infliction.
Their highly sensitive organizations do
not readily conform to conventionaIities
that impose martyrdom. They prefer to
commit mild outrage on what they know
to be the rules of polite society. When
itinerant entertainers. especially those
who do not bring an established reputa-
ton with them. criticize our audiences
they should take care to express them
selves in proper terms. Otherwise the
people criticized will solace themselves
that the lack of culture urged against them
is not peculiar to themselves.

THE INDUSTRIAL OUTLOOK.

According to the best evidence on hand
assumption during the year just closed
as exceeded production. Importers and
manufacturers have combined to produce
his result. The former have laid in
light stocks, for the reason that they ex-
)ected after the first or the middle of the
present year to import at lower cost.
Manufacturers have followed the same
rule Of action. They took care not to be
caught with large stock of goods on
hand when law should go into effect ma
terially reducing the cost of importing the
same kind of goods. 1t could not be other
wise under existing conditions than that
production should fall short of consump-
ton. If the tariff should not be materially
changed mills will start and work with
full force. Both the warehouse and pri.
vate wardrobes have been depleted by
period Of comparative dizziness in trade.
AS soon as steady work is in sight the pri-
vate demand for goods of all kinds will be
greater than il there had been no period
Of stagpation. In the Eastern centers
financial difficulties have enforced large
sales at loss. These houses will now
have to replenish 10 keep their trade.
The return of brisk times will be slow at
best, and may not show itself until the
action of Congress on the tariff can be pre-
dicted with some degree of confidence.
Congress viii meet Wednesday, and a very
little time should show the comparative
strength OF the force for and against the
proposed new tariff.

depression in business has.made 1t possible
to fill their places. Salaries in the higher
naval circles have not yet been attacked.
No law has been proposed TO reduce the
salaries established by law. The President
will continue to draw his ,000 aud the
head of the Navy Department will not
abate his demand because $4,000 will buy
more now than when the salary was es-
tablished. But the poor fellow who works
when he can get work at less than 81 per
day has to take what he can get. Mean
time there is a concerted cry that salaries
in the higher grades of service are INSULT
cient. The salaries of naval officers do
not enable them to perform their several
functions as ostentatiously as they would
like. 1t is understood that the higher
grade officials have families to support,
but no consideration is given the common
labOrer who happens to be in the same fix.

DISCRIMINATION.

The Sacramento Record Union considers
rank effTODtery for the press of San
rancisco to examine the new schedule of
10 Southern Pacific Company. The rail-
Jad organ raves in this way:
San Francisco demands that she have de-
Vered over TO her, by reason of her assumed
ght, the entire business of distributing sup
les; that every interior city shall be brought
4 chains to her feet and made TO pay duty to
or merchants. 1t does not appear 10 be Suf-
Client for San Francisco that she is the chief
ommercial and distributing center; she wishes
} be the only one, and demands that common
arriers discriminate in her favor and against
1terioT points for that purpose. San Fran
iscO is certainly entitled TO the palm for ef-
rOntery.
The Traffic Association has furnished a
iartlal analysis OF the new rates, which
how that iscrimination is to be practiced
gainst San Francisco. Freight rates are
increased out of proportion to distance,
instead of being fixed at so much a mile
Without reference TO distance or decreased
'er mile as distance increases. San Fran
lsco may send goods TO Sacramento at a
iven rate, but if 1t goes beyond that city
be rates are increased. This is not a part
the common carriers business. 1t is its
usiness TO transport goods at the cost of
ervice with reasonable profit attached.
is not for the common carrier to say that
UGH territory shall trade with San Fran
isco, another locality with Los Angeles
nd third with Sacramento. The cost
getting goods to consumers will regu-
tie these matters without any artificial
apping out OF territory on the part of the
ansportatiOn companies. Los Angeles,
aCramento and San Francisco will sever
ly reach into common territory as far as
icy can with due regard to profit. All

any San Francisco had been discrimin-
ted against In every direction. 1t has
cen shown that the Southern Pacific

WHEREAS.

The preamble to the resolutions adopted
by the min GRITTY Of the Committee on For
elgn Affairs constitutes an indictment I'M
der which President Cleveland will not be
content 10 rest. 1t accuses him, in fact, of
conspiracy. This charge is based upon in
formation gained from communications
from the Executive Department to Con-
gress. The minority report states that
these communications show that the Pres
ident 'has been furnishing to a Minister
Plenipotentiary Of the United States secret
instructions TO cOnspre with representa-
tives and agents of a deposed and dis
carded monarchy for the overthrow of a
friendly republican Government, duly rec
ognized by all civilized nations, and to
which his public instructions pledged good
faith and sympathy OF the President. Gov
eminent and people Of the United States"
In the body of the report it is asserted
that the power to appoint an official with
paTam Mount powers over the Minister the
Senate had confirmed does not lie with the
President. The duly accredited Minister
was at his post and the Senate was in ses-
sion when Personal Agent Blount was dis
patched and Instructions soon forwarded
to take the duties of the office out of the
hands OF the regular Minister. This the
report declares the President had not the
constitutional power to do.
Another strong point in the report Is the
denial of the right to diScredit the forsign
international policy of preceding admin
lsiration. The basis of the obligation to
give due credit to acts accomplished is
found in necessity. Under any other rules
one administration might upset the whole
foreign policy oi its predecessors. Foreign
nations woul1 justly refuse to enter into
treaties with a Government which was at
liberty every four years to reverse its for
eign policy. The withdrawal of the treaty
which President Harrison had sent TO the
Senate, but which the Senate had not acted
con, is admitted to be within the Presi-
ent's constitutional right. The two acts
ost severely condemned are the appoint
ent Of Blount and the issuing of private
lstruCtions to Minister Willis TO re-estab-
sh the throne if such act could be done
ithout a resort to physical force.

China has one good feature in Its institu-
tions. It never had bank failure-a.
least in comparatively modern times.
The last financial crash occurred over 500
years ago. and it is not difficult to guess
the horrible fate which those responsible
encountered. They perhaps were boiled
alive in oil. 1t would be too much to say
that there is no cheating or deception in
the Celestial empire, but bank smashes
are not in the category. The reason must
be that the Mongolians are impressed
with the Draconian penalties that await
wron gdoers. Decapitation is inevitable.
