AROUND THE CORRIDORS.

1.-THE people of California require practical
education as to the great value OF the water
ways within your boundaries" said o. I. Clegg
of Rochester, n. Y, at the Occidental yesterday.
Recently published statistics showing the
effect of transportation by the Erie canal upon
the wealth and growth of the section which it
serves forms an analogous case. During
the past seven years the increase of State taxa
ton in the counties of New York not reached
by canal transportation has been but $57 900,
while the increase in the counties reached by
the canal has been 81 ,2S5 900. In other words,
the enlargement of wealth and business by that
waterway has been nearly twenty-four times
the growth in the sections served by railways
alone Now the Erie canal is not modern
waterway by any means, but it represents the
transportation of fifty years ago. The counties
in New York State touched by the natural and
artificial waterways pay 81 per cent of the total
taxation for State purposes, while those not
touched by water transportation pay but ID
per cent. When your people properly improve
your great water system the influence upon the
State will be so marked that you viii marvel at
your former Ignorant policy"
"Salt Lake appears to be the objective point
of about all the proposed railroads now under
discussion which have any merit and which
intend to have their terminal in California"
said o. B. Hunter, an Omaha contractor, at the
Palace yesterday. "From present appearances
Los Angeles is likely to get into the field first
unless San Francisco displays more activity in
the matter than it has in the past The Los
Angeles people are endeavoring to secure the
detachment of the Milford branch from the
Union Pacific system as a starter for their line.
This branch runs from Salt Lake to Milford and
is 225 miles long, the line extending in the
direction of Los Angeles. The roadbed is said
to be graded seyenty-fve miles beyond Milford,
and the line was built by Bishop Sharp of the
Mormon Church, it having been his inten-
ton ultimately to extend it to this coast. The
Los Angeles people claim that the route
proposed is only 715 miles in length, that COW
ering the distance between Salt Lake City and
a point on the seaboard near Los Angeles
"The great power to be developed in Niagara
Falls, and about:which so much has been writ
ten, has not, yet come into practical use,' said
w. +. WEIGH of Buffalo, n. Y, at the Palace
yesterday. "HoWeVer, the numerous delays
which have been experienced have about come
to an end, believe, as just before left home
learned that the first of the great dynamos to
be utilized in the power-house of the Niagara
Falls Power Company had arrived and viii
soon be placed in position. These dynamos are
the largest ever constructed and were built by
the Westinghouse Company at its Pittsburg
shops"

THE FRENCH CRISIS.

NJ. Casimir-Perier has followed the ex-
ample of his predecessors, Grevy, Mac
Mahon and Theirs, and resigned the Presi-
dency of France rather than continue a
fruitless broil with hostile Chamber. II
is remarkable that no President of the
French Republic has ever served out his
term, and that since the fall of the empire
in 1890 there have been twenty-nine Minis
tries, with as many Prime Ministers.
The regular course for NJ. Casimir- Perier
to have pursued when the Dupuy Ministry
resigned was to send for the Speaker of the
Chamber and invite him to form a Minis
try. This rule was predicated upon the
assumption that the Speaker could COM
mand majority of the Chamber and could
therefore conduct public affairs. But it
seems that NJ. Brisson was unwilling to
take Office under Casimir-Perier IN conse-
quence of the latter's intense and general
unpopularity at Paris. Political disputes
sometimes become pretty hot in this
country, but with us political personalities
are lukewarm in comparison with those
which prevail in France. The other day a
man made a violent, insulting and men
acing speech against the President. He
was arrested, tried and sentenced to Jail,
upon which Paris constituency took him
up and elected him as its representative to
the Chamber.
Casimir-Perier represents a dynasty of
statesmen, all of whom have been mod
crate Republicans. His father was Minis
ter under Theirs, his grandfather came to
the front in the closing years of Charles X.
But though their principles have been Re
publican, their social affiliations have
always been with the aristocracy, and
from father to son it has been tradition
that they would have neither lot nor part
with the socialist or radical rabble. In
the conflict between the urban and the
rural population which RACES in France, as
in Germany, the present Casimir-Perier
has enrolled himself on the side of the lat
ter and has supported the measures which
attempted to exclude American -four and
American provisions from France in the
interest of the French cultivators. 1t looks
as though the antagonism between agra
rian and workman would come to head
at the election which takes place next
Thursday. NJ. Casimir-Perier is credited
with desire to succeed himself, while NJ.
Brisson would be the natural candidatesof
the radicals. 1t may be country pitted
against city. In former days, when such
conflicts occurred, the city always won ;
the people of the rural districts were too
torpid to make their power felt. But since
the beginning of the last empire the rules
have been reversed. 1t was the unwaver-
ing loyalty of the French peasants which
kept Napoleon III on the throne; if they
rally with equal constancy to the side of
Casimir-P erier-should he decide to run
French radicalism and socialism will re-
ceive staggering blow.

mond is one of the few documents OF the
kind that is open to the criticism of being
too short. We would gladly have had
from him more elaborate review of our
commercial conditions and opportunities
than was given to us. Brief as the address
was, however, it contained much OF en-
couragement. The chairman pointed out
that while California; as well as the rest OF
the world has suffered severely from the
panic and the depression, and while
neither the causes nor the effects have at
this time been completely eradicated, there
is Just ground for the prediction that the
ensuing year will be one OF progress and
increasing prosperity to the State
The review of the work done by the
Chamber during the year shows that it has
exercised watchful care over the CONNER
cial interests of the State and has exerted
its energies to advance not only great
national enterprises, like the Nicaragua
canal and those of special Importance TO
San Francisco, but has been active IN pro-
noting the improvement of rivers and
harbors in all parts of California. 1t is
pleasing to note, however, that these et-
forts have not been wholly Intellectual, and
that the chairman was able to say that
harbor Improvements are continued and
the great rivers of the State are each IN
condition more nearly approaching safe
navigation than has been the case for years

PEOPLE TALKED ABOUT.

Captain James Kennedy, who died short
time ago in England, was an ex-commodore OF
the Inman line, but he will be best remem-
bered as the commander of the Great Eastern,
when in 1861 she conveyed 1000 troops from
London to Quebec.
C. W. Woodhouse of Burlington, VT, has re-
ceiyed from the estate of his father, the late
DR.. Charles Woodhouse of Rutland, the origi-
nal letter written by Ethan Allen announcing
the capture of Fort Ticonderoga.
The Marquis of Lorne has incurred the dis
pleasure OF the English royal family for his
presumption in connecting himself as active
partner in a firm of house decorators in Lon
don.
Nine. CasimiT-Perier has kept up the char
liable custom Of helping 200 poor widows at
Christmas time. This good work was started
by Nine. Carnot.
The Mikado of Japan is fne-looking man
and full of personal magnetism. He is great
reader, and his taste runs TO French literature.
Mavroyeni Bey, the Turkish Minister, is one
of the most inveterate theater-goers in Wash.
ington, and is devoted to pretty actresses.
There are 1000 girls employed in the British
postal department, and there was only l per

S. Kurino, japanese Minister to the United
States, is a very popular man in Washington.

THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.

While the discussions at the annual
meeting of the Chamber of Commerce on
Tuesday evening were largely directed to
political subjects, the public interest in
them centers mainly in what was said
upon strictly commercial topics. This is not
due to any lack of Importance in the po-
itical issues discussed, nor to any disap-
proval of the resolutions adopted but to
the fact that politics is and has been dealt
with sufficiently elsewhere, while to COM
mercial affairs there has not been given
the attention they deserve nor the consid-
Grafton which they ought to have in city
of this size and in iuncture SO critical to
our business interests.
