Power Of Electric Search Lights,

Probably not one person among q
hundred has even an approximate
conception of the illuminating power
OF one of the great modern search.
lights, and it is only vaguely under
stood that it must be something enor-
nous. As matter of fact, with the
projecting reflectors in use, which
serve as multiplying factors for
the actual candle.power of the
electric arc, the Illuminating capacity
OF the beams issuing from one of the
large modern search-lights has been
placed at the equivalent OF something
over 200.0O0,00O candles. Just what
this means is not easily realized,
though popular measure of lighting
power is afforded by the statement
that, under favorable atmospheric
conditions, one of these large lights
can be seen nearly 100 miles away
and will illuminate objects at dis.
lance OF nearly 90 miles with sufii-
Gent ciearness to make their examins-

and his face turned in evaporation toward
the offensive ''furriner." Then an oar

and dropped into the water. and we were
left in utter darkness.
The waterman had fallen over with Q

whistle was blown again and replied to as

FROM tue sacramento Bee.
The Southern Pacific company is vltally in
teres,ed in the permanent development of Cal
iforna, and the Bee therefore takes the liberty
of drawing Its attention to the following facts
The rates OF overland fr lights, as shown at
the recent meeting of the fruit growers il this
city, are cheaper to oregon than to California,
and this factis naturally building up Oregon
at the expanse OF California. Oregon has gone
into the fruit growing business, spd this year
sent her fl rst carloads to the eastern markets.
A few years of lower rates will aid materially
in giving her control Of the eastern markets
during SEASONS when he: climate permits the
maturing of fruit, and will CORES pond ngly
encourage fruit planting in oregon and dis
courage il IN California
Now comes the announcement that az the
request OF the Southern Pacific, the basis OF
overland freight rates is, perhaps, to be in
creased from 50 cents to 80 cents per 100.
Arguments couched in sledge hammer facts
OF this kind are not likely to increase popu ar
sentiment in favor of refunding and Southern
Pacific ownership of the Ceutrsl Pacific.
Asiie from that, such action seems calculated
to injure the Southern Pacific by preventing
speedy development OF the state OF California,
whose local transportation is in its hands.
Is the Southern Pacific so foolish as thus to
kill the goose OF California, which has laid for
it SO many golden eggs?
