PEARL HABOR.
MIR. GirVin Extolle Its Advantages
n as a darbor


Mr.. EDITo:-On the YACHT
Hawaii, witbgood company and a
generous hnper of provisions, a
week ago 4 visited Pearl lochs for
the frsttime. It was pleasant
day AID although the wind was
light we ran down very quickly.
The sea being calm we had a good
opportunity to note the entrance to
the lagoon through the coral reef
Which is very well defined. At
Puuloa Point the mouth of the
harbor is quite narrow and deep.
and thereafter there is plenty of
water for the largest ships. Pearl
Harbor is one of the most beau
t1ful sheets of water on the Pacific
Coast. 1t is perfectly land-locked
and safe at all seasons. The rise
and fall of the tide is not over
eighteen inches and the calmness
+ of the water will eventually make
1t a delightful resort for those who
are fond of boating. If there was
such a sheet of water on the coast
of California it would be sur
rounded with great hotels and
houses for tourists, who would ex-
piore every nook in this lovely
tropical lagoon in steam launches.
The feasibility of constructing a
dry dock in one of the bights is
apparent. The irregular contour
of the periphery of the lagoon, to-
gether with the fact that the whole
surroundings clear to the beach ARE
covered with dense tropical foliage
make this one of the most pictures
que sheets of water in the world.
The great depth of water close to
the shore will facilitate wharf
building and the landing of heavy
merchandise or naval stores. The
fact of there being innumerable
fresh-water springs surrounding the
lagoon, and artesian water availa-
BILE almost everywhere in the vicin-
ity, quadruples the value of this
harbor as site for large city or
a coaling station for the navies of
the world. San Diego harbor has
been extolled as one of the deepest,
safest and most perfectly land
locked of any on the coast, but it
is not the superior of Pearl Harbor.
It is only a matter of a short time
until the utility and beauty Of this
magnificent sheet of calm water
will be appreciated. Years ago it's
value was understood, and parties
FASTENED to buy up the surround
ing land as a speculation, and not
with intent to improve. Their |
great grandchildren will probably |
learn that the American Govern
ment is very slow to pay exorbl-
tant prices for land. Should it
ever be induced to purchase any
but a small quantity the Spectator
will have discovered that after de-
Quoting the commission paid to
lobbyists he will receive only
1.-THE of his expectations. l have
seen coteries in San Diego bond
lands endeavor to induce the Gov
eminent to buy them for military
and ratification uses at large
prices. They hold them still and
are likely to do so. 1t would be
much better to offer lands to the
at fair prices or at
value fixed by appraisers regularly
selected. JAS. w. G1RV1N.

RECIPROCITY TREATIES.

ADrosatlOn OF the One with brazil May
Result in Damage Suits.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 15.-The abroga-
tion of reciprocity between the United
States and Brazil is to have a sequel
in the filing of claims and the begin
ming of suits against this government
for the total amount of duties collect
ed on Brazilian goods covered by the
reciprocity treaty from August % last,
the date the new tariff law went into
effect, up to January 1 next
In the exchange of official notes
leading up to the treaty, Minister
Mendonca of Brazil wrote to Secre-
tary Blaine that the treaty would be
proclaimed, with the understanding
the commercial arrangements thus
put in operation shall remain in force
SO long as neither government shall
definitely, at least three months in
advance, inform the other of it's in
tention and decision to consider it at
an end at the expiration of the time
Indicated, provided, however, that
the termination of the commercial
arrangement shall b,gin to take
effect either on the first day of Janu-
ary or the first day of July"
Secretary Blaine's official note re-
peated the above language and stated
the arrangement would not be termi-
mated except on ''at least three
months notice" The official notice
was made part of the commercial
arrangement and the presidents
proclamation. Notwithstanding this
provision, the new tariff law abro-
gates all reciprocity treaties, except
that with Hawaii, without notice.

DUN's BUSINESS REVIEW.
1t Says Business Is Waiting for Develop

ment of the Retail Trade.
NEW YORK, Oct. 15.-R- G. Dun q
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade saws:
Business is still waiting for the de-
velopment of retail trade There is q
little better demand in some indus
tries, but not so good in others.
Wholesale dealers in nearly all
branches are haulting because busi-
ness does not yet show distinctly
what it is to be. Lower prices for the
great farm staples and lower wages in
some establishments hinder purchases
for consumption, while pol litical in
terest and uncertainty also hav some
influence. Meanwhile large imports
and small exports of merchandise,
with inadequate employment for
money here are raising the rates of
foreign exchange, so that possibilities
of gold exports somewhat affect the
stock market. The halting attitude
for the moment is disturbing to those
who have looked for continued gain,
though rightly considered, it is the
natural consequence of conditions
which are to be expected at this sea-
son.
The government crop reports are
not greatly trusted, and yet have an
influence and actually aggravate the
tendency toward lower prices, be-
cause they are supposed to report all
the crops too low. Men calmly
reckon that if the government
report indicates over 400, 900, 900
bushels of wheat, the crop
must be over 500, 900, 600, and
though Western receipts for the week
against 6, 335, 302 last year, and Allan
tic exports only 647,244 bushels,
against 900, 564 last year, the price is
slightly lower. Corn is stronger. for
receipts are hardly a quarter and ex-
ports barely an eighth of last years.
and the question whether the actual
yield, if above the government esti-
mate, may not prove lower than has

Is S73, 200, 600 per year, Is it any won

to be millionaires.
am of the opinion that it would be
best to build new roads, on certain
lines, O. to select certain routes, have
falr estimates made and offer the
roads that amount in greenback
money, and no piece of money over
500 in value. Make the rates so as
to pay at least 20 per cent, this would
allow reduction of at least two fths
to one-half of present rates; Keep on
building and buying until the public
system is complete. In this way the
expenditure of not more than 81, OOO.-
600, 600 of original outlay would, in
twenty years or less. provide the
United States with 15O,O to 200, 90
miles of railroads. Your mention OF
belt roads is good and should be the
first constructed.
The present proposition to take
the Pacific roads is steal,
for the roads could be con-
structed for half what the govern
ment would have to pay on the first
mortgage bonds, which our ever
memorable Credit Mobilier" congress
granted. The loan is a total loss.
Why try to deceive the people any
longer? If they would condemn the
roads for national use and pay what
it would cost to build them now and
let the bondholders do what they
please with the money, that would be
the correct thing 10 do. 1t is really
all that can be done, unless they
would act on Gov. Pattison's report
and recommendation, take them for
what they now owe. This would be
right.
am SO glad the Populists have you
approval, and 1 expect it is well that
you, as we say here, saw wood and
vote as you think best. AS you would
be called crazy, and it would cause
more or less prejudice against you to
openly espouse our cause It is al
ways SO in the country and small
towns, and yet the country is where

Uncle Henry is well fixed and living

pots" and really for the time being it

THE RAILROADS.
GOVERNMENT OWNERSHIP NO
NEW IDEA AND ENTIRELY
PRACTICAL.
Extract from a Speech of w. S. Morgan
at Medical Springs, Arkansas In De
fsnse of the Omaha Platform

The Peoples party is in favor OF
government ownership OF railways
AS there were no great corporate rail-
way systems in Jeffersons day, we
can only surmise what stand he would
have taken If he had lived in rail-
way age. On this question our plat
form declares as follows:
We believe that the time ha5 como
when the railroad corporations will
either own the people or the people
must own the railroads; and should
the government enter upon the work
of owning and managing any or all
railroads, we should favor an amend
ment to the constitution by which all
persons engaged in the government
service shall be placed under civil
service regulation of the most rigid
character, so as to prevent the in
crease of the power of the national
administration by the use of such ad-
ditional government employees
Transportation being a means of ex-
change, and a public necessity, the
government should own and operate
the railroads in the interest of the
people.
We are aware that in lie treatment
OF this subject we are treading on
grounds that are hotlY contested. We
have no hesitation in approaching it.
We have never vet met any one who
opposed it that had ever made any in
vestigation of the subject Many peo-
pie are foolish enough to believe that
government ownership is new
fantastical idea that originated within
the chimerical brain of some crazy
Populist The idea Of government
ownership is as old as the invention of
railroads Among the governments
now owning and operating their own
lines, together with the number of
miles they are operating, are the fol-
lowing:
