WILL NOT WORK.

The defenders Of the Southern Pacific
Company are finding new objections to
Observation-Disclosures propositions every
day. The Sacramento Bee recently pub
lished a series of articles favoring fore
closure, but insisting that the Government
must lose the difference between the cash
value of the road and the amount of the
Indebtedness But weekly paper has
made an even more important discovery.
1t tells the people how the Southern Pacific
Company will bid against the Government
on foreclosure proceedings and run the
property up to point that will wipe out
the debt. The weekly paper is apparently
under the impression that tramp may
enter an auction-room and bid against
men whose credit is established without
being required TO produce evidence that he
could make his bid good. Under fore
closure proceedings any party bidding
against the Government will be required
10 make a satisfactory showing of good
faith. The stockholders, admitted to be
insolvent debtors, would not be exempt
from this rule. The farce of an insolvent
bidding against the Government on the
property being sold TO pay portion Of the
debt might cause some merTiment in a
stage performance. but it will not do in
real life,

TAROY ACTION.

The English stockholders in the Central
Pacific Railroad have sent representative
to this country to see what has become of
dividends. For some years dividends were
promptly paid and stock sid st IS cents on
the dollar. But with the disappearance Of
divideD DIS stock has gone down to about Is
cents. From what their Representative
Sir Charles Rivers Wilson, says their plan
of operation will be to induce the Govern
ment to refund the debt of the Central
Pacific, and thus enable The Central Pacific
Company to resume payment of dividends.
Sir Charles says that if the Government
would do this il would produce good I'M
preston abroad and materially assist in
the popularity of American securities. -
During the years while the original stock
holders were diverting the earnings of the
company to their private use the English
purchasers of STOCK remained silent. They
permitted the original holders to vote their
shares, thus to re-elect themselves direc-
tors and divide the money that should have
been paid in stock dividends among them
selves. Now that the debt of the road is
about to mature and the creditors contem-
plate taking the road for their debt the
English stockholders appear upon the
scene. That they have cause of complaint
against the company will be admitted. but
this cause is not of a character 10 influence
the action of :he United States Govern
ment Purchasers of stock in corporations
ara presumed to know the financial con-
dItion OF the corporations at The time of
purchase. These English purchasers must
have known of the two mortgages which
would in time wipe out the stock unless
paid. They had 10 right 10 suppose
that the holders of either mortgage would
foregO the collection OF their debt. Yet
with majority of the stock in their hands
they do not seem to have taken any meas.
ure to protect themselves from fraud. The
Government certainly cannot now consider
itself under obligation to enter into
an arrangement by which the stockholders
may collect the money they have been
swindled out of from the people CT Cali.

Moons Phases.
FEAST OF REASON.

There were some good speeches made at
the Unitarian bal quet on Monday night.
Professor Ross OF the Stanford University
talked instructKely of the necessity of
inspiring in the mind of a resident of a
city a sentiment kindred TO that which a
coed citizen feels for his country. I'VE
must instill that sentiment of civicism just
as deep into the hearts of the people as
we have shown we can the sentiment of
patriotism" This is an excellent text to
preach from. 1t is habit 10 exaggerate
the defects OF cur city governments. Cor
respondingly we exaggerate the good
points of the governments Of foreign cities.
A comparison of cities shows that in some
points We are better governed than an
other. and if we eXaggerate the good points
of foreign cities and The bad points of our
=. own we easily reach the conclusion that
we rank low in the art of municipal gov
eminent. But upon closer * minatiun it
might be found that we excel in many
respects Of which no mention is made. 1t
has been stated so often that people are
beginning to believe it that Birmingham,
England, is well governed for about one
fifth of the cost Of government to the city
of Boston. The statement is absurd.
Boston could not reduce its expenses by
one-half without leaving unprovided lnsti-
tutions now literally cared for. In Biz
mlngham service is cheap; in Boston COM
psratively dear. But with this difference
in view Boston cannot reduce her exp nses
TO the Birmingham standard by any posi-
bic exercise of honesty and wise economy.
People who make these comparisons do not
know what the TWO governments do.
The Hon. Horace Davis added to the
feast of reason by The conviction that IL is
of no use TO vote an Independent ticket.
An independent candidate, Mr.. Davis is
reported as saying. sis one who does not
perform his duty to his country" Per-
haps the remedy for existing evils is 10
reform the primary. But while the pri-
mary is being reformed it IS declared to be
the duty of voters to support the parry
ticket. A good many men who consider
themselves good citizens will not agree
with Mr.. Davis. Until primaries are re-
formed the right to bolt the party ticket
should be exercised but with discretion.
1t may not always be wise to exercise it,
neither is it wise for the manipulators of
the primaries to work under the idea that
If they carry the primaries they control
the full party vote. The independent
voter exercises upon such political manipu-
lation most wholesome influence.

THE MERCANTILE LIBRARY.

Another effort is being made to eXtricate
the Mercantile Library from the embar-
easements into which it has drifted. The
debt which it owes to the Hibernia Savings
Bank is more than it can carry. The re-
ceipts from subscriptions and rents fail to
supply the sum required for expen SEES,
purchases OF new books and interest on
the mortgage, and unless some help is pro-
vided from new source trouble is going
to result.
The time has passed TO CRITICIZE the
judgment which led to the con struc ion of
the library building on It's present site.
The thing is done, and nothing now re-
mains but to make the best of it, Hap
PLY. no fault is 10 be found with the
management. The library is supplied with
new books as fast as they come out, and
the attractiveness of the magn ifcent COL
lection now inclosed in the new hall is
proved by Increase of subscribers above
the average of late years. Some help has
been obtained from the auxiliary commit
tee, under the energetic management of
Mrs. DR.. Gibbons, and a few thousand
dollars have been subscribed by friends of
the library and lifelong subscribers. But
all these resources will fail to save the in
sti'utlon from its impending fate unless
they are supplemented by more energetic
measures for raising money.
When last year the same trouble arose,
1t was proposed by body of members that
the Mercantile unite with the Mechanics
Institute. The former had q hall which
the Institute needed; the Institute had
money and an income which the Mercan-
Tile needed badly; there was thus good
reason for fusion. But to the m ajorty of
the members of the Mercantile, fusion ap-
peared like the memorable lying down OF
Tue lion and the lamb, when the lamb lay
down inside the lion. IL struck them as a
plan by which the Mercantile would be
wiped out, and the Mechanics as the sur
vlvor would inherit its splendid library
and Its magnificent ball on Van Ness
avenue. They accordingly voted down the
project at the election, and now the Mer-
camille is several thousand dollars worse
OH than twas. The problem is once moro
presented to them for solution.
Ii must be admitted that it is one of no
common Difficulty. It is Perfectly clear

suffice to meet the current liabilities of the
institution. And those liabilities cannot
be evaded or postponed. The expenses
must be met; books must be bought, or
people will withdraw their subscriptions;
new subscribers might provide for these.
but the Hibernia Bank is a corporation.
which conducts its business on business
principles, and will require its interest on
the day that it is due. The thing to do
seems 10 be for the friends of the library
to enlist the liberaliiy of publc-spirited
men OF means to the extent of providing
for interest money aud any other pressing
needs. Next every member of the associa-
tion should make it his or her business to
get new subscriber. The result of such
work might soon put the library on its legs
and keep it there.

IN JAIL.

Judge Wallace has Issued warrants for
the arrest of four election officers charged
with altering returns. The evidence taken
before the Election Commissioners left no
doubt but that fraud had been committed,
but it was deemed better that the order Of
arrest should issue from a court. BY CON-
mon consent the department OF Judge
Wallace is admitted to be the one In which
charges OF this character are most likely
to be thoroughly investigated. The Young
men who are 10 prison probably have little
idea OF the nature of the crime they are
charged with. Changing few figures on

very serious matter. 1t is not likely, how
ever, that they would have committed the
offeuse of which they are charged without
some motive. 1t will be the object of the
court to ascertain the nature OF that motive
and the person behind it. Who benefited
by the fraud? Who is interestedln having

of Judge Wallace to bring into light the
figures behind the suffers. So. we pre-
