READY-MADE HOUSES.

The CALL recently suggested that Cali
fornia lumber might be proftably worked
up in the construction of ready-made
houses, only needing to be put together,
for shipment to the South African mining
regions, and perhaps other countries Dor
dering on the Pacific and Indian oceans.
Word now comes from Washington that
one OF our Consuls in Italy has discovered
fine market for such houses in parts of
that country. The recent earthquakes in
Sicily and Catalonia have destroyed many
buildings. 1t is believed that these Ameri-
can structures, light and well braced,
would stand the shocks better than any
other kind of dwellings. member of
the Royal Earthquake Commission has in
terested himself in the subject.
If Eastern manufacturers can find an
opening for such trade in Italy why can
not Californians do likewise around our

A POSTAL LABOR EXCHANGE,

According to one Of our consular reports
the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg has a
very effective system Of labor exchange.
The postal department receives, registers
and transmits applications from wage
payers and wage-earners, and posts them
in railway stations, hotels and other pub
lie places. Applicants are notified of re-
plies by postal cards, During the last two
years from IS to 80 per cent OF such appli-
cations have fulfilled their purpose.
Luxembourg is a small State, and some
things might work very well there that
would not answer in California or other
parts OF the United States We have also
extensive private employment agencies
which Fill large demand. Yet it is notice
able every year, especially during our long
drawn out harvest season, that there is
often failure to bring work and workers
together. Men and boys who are willing
to work may be idling in San Francisco
and other towns while farmers in various
sections OF the State are at their wits ends
to secure labor to get in their crops The
existing agencies do not seem to altogether
fill the bill.
OF course the Government would have to
take in hand any such scheme as the
Luxembourg system, but the Government
seldom takes the initiative in such mat.
tiers. Private effort has to first work ND a
sentiment and suggest action. We have
many bright and energetic persons inter
ested IN improving the relations between
work and workers. Would it not be worth
while for some of them TO take up this
question, study its possibilities, and work
out OF it some practical plan for submis-
sion to Government? The new era in
California is going to make employment,
and it viii also attract laborers. Anything
that will help to bring them together will

WATCH TIE SENATE.

Tt is now evident that vigorous effort IS
to be made in the Senate TO defeat the bill
authorizing the Harbor Commissioners to
lease terminal on the water front in this
City TO the san Joaquin Railroad This
fight will force the enemies Of progress n
California to come out IN the open. In the
past men who have been on the side Of
monopoly against the people have been
able 10 conceal their real animgs by one
specious pretext or another. In the pres
ent instance there IS no possible pretext
available tt IS q plain, open, stand-up
fight. either for the people and the COM
petlag road, or against the people and for
the monopoly

nerve but gall, not frTnness but insoIence,

Of the legislature who seeks TO thwart the
will Of the people The issue IS too i'm
portant 10 be SGT aside lightly. Every vote
upon It VIII be remen bered for the rest Of
this generation. No Legislator viii be for
gotten who stands with the people and
none VII be forgiven who IS opposed 10
them. It Is therefore critical point IN
the political career Of every member Of the
Legislature. It behooves each and eli Of
them 10 look carefully into the situation.
IN the past, the people have been op-
pressed, and every industry has been in
igred By the lack Of q corn @tttiye trans
portation system. In the present, the
people have aroused themselves, not in
foolish wrath, but n wise resolution TO
establish competition by constructing e
new road From the oppression of the
past, and from the hope Of the present, are
derived the forces that make the public SET
timent in favor Of the proposed bill. That
sentiment IS Just now the strongest in Cal
itornia. It cannot be provoked with i'm
pGaity. It ought not to BE- provoked at
all.
It's not necessary 10 review again til z
arguments IL favor OF the bill. They are
familiar to every intelligent man in the
State. It IS clean, honest, straightfor-
ward bill providing . means, and the
only means, By which the competing road
can ger 4 terminus IN San Francisco and
the City be relieved from the blight Of mo-
nopo.y. It VIII not do foE any man who
hopes for q political career IN this state, or
who desires the esteem 0: honest men, to
oppose the bill. To help it forward IS to
help forward every interest, every industry
and every section Of the State. To oppose
It IS to hamper every energy and bafae
every hope On the side OF the Dill ere
progress and craftsmanship. Against It
there can be nothing but treason, strata
gems and spoils.
