THE HOME OF THE VINE.

The description OF st. Helena, published
in Yesterdays CALL, was practically linn.
tied to the wine-making industry, .upon
which is based the wide fame. of that de-
Gghtful part of the Napa Valley. In a.
recent editorial in the CALL, written with
special reference to the natural charms of
: this wonderful valley, ground was covered
which included the whole. st. Helena lies
above the point in the Napa River where
navigation ends, and hence its industries,
the products of which are dependent on
rail transportation, are of not SO general
and commercial a character as those of
Napa; but what is lacking in variety is
fully compensated for in quality.
The Napa and Sonoma valleys run par
allel, being separated by low range of
picturesque mountains. For years there
has been pleasant rivalry between them
as to which shonld produce the best wines.
This rivalry, as well as the superb natural
conditions which exist, has resulted in the
production of light wines, which have been
one of the most efficacfous of the causes
for the fame of California abroad, for
these wines are now regarded by connois-
seurs everywhere as being among the best
that the world produces.
The wine-growers of France and Italy
would be amazed if they should see the
splendid scale upon which the enterprise is
conducted in the vicinity of st. Helena.
Where, in Europe, vineyard of ten or fif-
teen acres is deemed generous possession,
few hundreds of acres often constitute a
vineyard at St. Helena. On an equally
noble scale are the wineries, vast structures
of stone, of artistic architectural design,
and constituting the exterior closings of
immense tunnels run into the mountains.
where the wine ripens in perfectly even
temperature and free from ali the disturb
ances which may occur in surface vaults.
The splendor of the picture does not stop
there. Near the massive pile of stone
which constitutes the winery is sure to be
seen the mansion of the owner-a noble
villa, likely set in a park of native oaks,
environed with flower garden of exquisite
beauty. ALI this means that these great
enterprises are conducted by men and
women of large means and refined tastes,

VETO THE ORDER.

. The bituminous rock order, which, under
the circumstances, may be rightly called
infamous, was passed by the Board of SUI
.pervisors yesterday by a vote of eight to
four, The infamy of the order lies in the
fact that it depriyes the Cityof the advan-
tages. of competition in obtaining asphalt,
gives to a combination of dealers a
monopoly in furnishing the material and
to 1.-THE Southern Pacific road a monopoly OF
hauling it. Such a jobs SO bold defiance
of the people, and so open fraud upon
the City, that it might: be fairly called
highway robbery if it had not been carried
out under the forms of law. n .-s
!. It is the duty of Mayor Sutro to veto the
order. His veto. will be sufficient to kill it,
for it would require nine votes to pass it
over theveto, and he can count on four
members of the board to stand firmly with
him. These four Joseph l.. Dimond, c.
L. Taylor, A. B. Spreekels and J. K. G.
Hobbs-are men upon whom the people
can rely in this emergency, and if the
Mayor unites with them the cunning plan
to rob the taxpayers viii be foiled, the job
will be smashed and the ring, despite its
brass and triple steel, will be. broken. :.
I. In the play of this scheme to serve the
monopoly at the expense of the people,
Supervisor King has made himself partic-
ularly conspicuous by his shifty showing
first on one side and then. on the-other.
When King voted with the: true represen-
tatiyes of the people we gave him credit for
being. in good company, but were not too
sanguine that he was going to stay there.
We knew his. record. There" was no sur
prise when he dodg ed the second vote, and
still less when he: voted with the ring yes
terday. The man issone of. the worst spec
linens of Doodle politicians whom boss rule
ever raised to power in an. American mu-
.nicipality. A short time ago he was hotel
runner at the ferry and there acquired the
impudence. and the lungs that constitute
all the stock in trade his venality has to
offer in exchange for money either in poll
tics or in business. :..@ ......:.
IF Mayor Sutro does his duty, the vote of
yesterday will be comparatively harmless
and will serve only to give. the people a
lesson in the Importance of electing good
men:to Office: Menwho vote for such pol
siticians as those who are. now. seeking to
surrender the. interests of the city, hardly
deserve a better government. The lesson
should be learned thoroughly in order that
better men may be elected hereafter. In
the meantime the people have but: these
three words to: say the Mayor: Veto the

which in turn means that the growing OF
grapes and the making of wine constitute
one of the most fascinating occupations
known to man. OF course there are many
small growers, whose profits are as good
as those enjoyed by the larger growers.
for wealth has no monopoly of this alluring
industry. ..ts:. - -: -. {:
+: The wine-producing regions oil: the State,
and particularly the section of which St.
Helena is the center, have recently become
objects Of particular interest by reason of
the combination of wine-makers. Up to
that time the profits Of the industry had
been comparatively small, and as a con-
sequence the business was languishing.
The wines were we'll worth to the producer
double the prices at which they had been
selling. A lack of proper organization for
marketing the product worked a benefit to
the brokers at the expense of the pro-
ducers. Under the new organization the
producers receive double the price to which
they had been accustomed, without any
addition to the amount which the con-
sumner pays. Thus very generous profits
to the producer are assured; and hence st.
Helena, with its splendid and profitable
wine industry, has suddenly engaged un-
wonted attention.
While wine-making is the prominent
industry of st. Helena, fruits which in
other parts of California are grown to SO
wonderful perfection thrive equally well
there. The recently started enterprise of
olive-planting is highly commendable, for
