AMERICAN WOOL.

The San Jose Mercury calls attention to
an article IN the american Wool and Cot
ton Reporter from the pen of Judge Peck
ham. president of the San Jose Mills
Company. which the Mercury considers
the best short article on the tariff question
since the Wilson bill was reported. Judge
Peckham very truly says that the mass of
the people who voted for Cleveland and
tariff reform had no idea of giving their
support to any such measure as the Will
son tariff bill. The Democratic national
platform calls for tariff for revenue
only. Now, tariff for revenue only
would require uniform duty of about
So per cent on all imports. BY what right
dues the Wilson bill deprive wool of this
50 per cent duty and ask Democrats to
support such tariff on party grounds?
Ii the Democratic majority in Congress
had framed tariff bill on the lines marked
out by the last national convention it
might have claimed party support; but
when IL abandons the fundamental prin-
ciple laid down in convention Democrats,
whether in Congress or out, have a right
to exercise their individual judgment in
speech and vote. A Congressional major
ity cannot switch the party from its de-
clared faith without exposing itself to the
danger of being repudiated. Mr.. Peckham
is a wool manufacturer rather than a
wOol-grower. but he perceives how closely
the two industries are inteTlaced. Speak
ing as a wool manufacturer be says:
The cheaper can get wool the cheaper 1 can
make goods; but when i recOleeI that under
the wool tariffs of 1867 and 1888 The wool clip
of the United States has increased fvefold.
that it has grown from 60.0OO,OOo TO over
10o.000.00o pounds, l have well-grounded
fear that IL our woOl-growers are forced 10
compete with the cheaper products OF the
world IL will lead them TO the destruction of
their fiocks, and should this prove true 1t would
render US dependent on foreign nations for one
of the prime necessaries of life.

SECURED A SITE.
ST, Marks Church Trustees BUY
Real Estate.

Real ESTATE
The trustees of ST. Marks German
EvanpelicaI Lutheran Church secured
suitable site Oh Tuesday for the proposed
church which has been In contemplation
for some time. II will not be long before
thew make preparations for building a
handsome structure, as special effort is
being made to proceed with haste that the
change may take place at an early date.
The land bought for the church belonged
to Bernard Sweitzer, who is an extensive
owner of real estate in San Francisco. It
is situated on the south side of O'Farrell
street, 1877 feet inches west of Franklin
street, where the level rises above the
street, thus offering a commanding view
across town and assuring the building a
salient position among city churches. The
area is 20 feet by 1877 feet inches, and
the price $17.500. or $3.50 front foot,
which is regarded as very satisfactory by
Henry z. mbsen, who negotiated the
transaction. Grading. excepting a mere
superficial levellng, will not be necessary,
so construction may begin as soon as plans
are finished and contracts signed.
The trustees intend erecting building
of stone and terra Gotta at a cost of about
$4,000. So far no plans have been pre-
pared. but architects will be asked for
sketches for a church with an imposing
facade. all modern improvements and fur
nishings inside and substantial walls and
roof. Possibly the price will exceed
$4,000 If plan that pleases all concerned
should cost more. There will be much
larger seating capacity than the old church
| on Union square has. because the Increase
in the congregation demands better accom-
modatiOns.
Old st. Marks will be the third church
to leave Union square. Some years ago
the Starr King Church was moved from
Geary street. almost opposite the green.
| Trinity followed. and soon the German
congregation will move westward with he
population. The plain old kirche is pi0-
neer among city churches, having been
established in early days by few earnest
German Lutherans. All through its career
ST. Marks has been blessed with success.
1t is said of st. Marks that more couples
are married before its altar than in any
other city church. Among Germans it is a
favorite place for marriages, so much so
| indeed that the pastor, whose salary is
small, derives a handsome income from
performing wedding ceremonies. The rec
tor is Rev. j. Fuendeling, but management
of business affairs in connection with the
church is left with d. Becker, president;
Alexander Gerdes, secretary; G. Hacke,
| treasurer, and ten directors.

LABOR COLONIES.

L. Great Britain. Germany, France, Hol-
land and Belgium there is an army of
une mployed men whom it is necessary to
feed; all manner of expedients are being
tried to determine low the work can best
and most effectually be done. Four classes
of persons appeal for relief: First, those
who have lost their jobs and who are look
ing for another; second, those whose call
ing has been crippled by the hard times :;
third. these who are surplus workers in
trade which is overstocked; fourth, those
who do not get work because they are idle
and worthless. In California we may add
another class: those who, having lost
their jobs at the Eat, have come here in
the deluded notion that work could always
be obtained on the Pacific Slope.
In England the first plan of relief con-
templated tie undertaking Of works of
public Improvement at the public expens Sc
Various such works were suggested,
among others the drainage of the fens of
Lincolnshire and Norfolk, which would
add new county to the kingdom. This
scheme is under contemplation with very
slight chances of its adoption. At Glasgow
municipal works were started to improve
the harbor and the unemployed were en-
gagged. It was found that considerable
proportion of the men idled their time, and
they we're employed by the job instead of
the day, on which 20 per cent of them
quit work. The labor unions of England
have relieved much distress. During last
year 202 unions with 6S0025 members paid
no less sum than S1,110.440; the sum
would have been larger If the miners
unions had not exhausted their resources
in the recent strike. Besides these unions
a NUMBER of charitable societies and
benevolent organizations have distributed
large sums to relieve pressing distress in
their immediate neigh borhood.
On the Continent the system of labor
colonies has been generally approved. II
must be remembered that in France, Ger
many and Italy the system of compulsory
military service goes far TO solve the labor
problem by relieving the labor market oil

| of unemployed labor which the colony
system is designed to utilize. The scheme
| contemplates the purchase Of large farms
on which unemployed men are fed and
| lodged and required to work; the produce
of their labor being sold to defray the cost OF
the colony. None of the colonies are self.

of money from the departmental CT CON-
munal governments, By donations from

churches. Wages are paid to the colonist;
at the rate Of 10 cents per day, and. be.
sides this, the cost of feeding and lodging
them is reckoned at 16 cents per day. In

UNIQUE LAWS.
The Santa Cruz Record says:


California has some very unique laws. A
girl is compelled 10 get the consent of her
parents when under Is years Of age, whether
she has been married before or not. A 15-year-
old widow was refused license to marry. In
other words she was too young to be wife, but
old enough 10 be widow.
There is such thing as a girl being a
widow without being old enough to be a
widow. She may be legally married at an
age which makes such relation of the
sexes hinkable-may, in fact, become a
widow without having been wife and be
as much in need OF parental projection as
though still. in the legal sense, girl. The
fact that girl has made one imprudeDt
marriage does not release the State from
Its obligations to afford her the protection
Of wise laws. The law requiring that
parents or guardians assent should be q
condition upon which marriage licenses
are granted to girls under IS. whether
such girls have been married once or not,
is wise if unique.

SILVER GUARANTEE BANKS.

fifty cents on the dollar and Congress was
discussing the WAYS and means of lifting
them to par. Horace Greeley thought ne

that the way To resume is to resume" The
terse line caught the public eye, and there
were men who thought that Greeley was
fnancier. Other men, without one-tenth
OF Greeley's great brain. understood that
the way to resume was to provide coin
with which to redeem whatever amount
of greenbacks might be offered for re-
demption. Now, when silver is in the
dumps there are ardent advocates of BIZ
metallism who will tolerate no measure
but unlimited coinage. They say that un-
limited coinage is the ultimate con-
