BANKING AND MANUFACTURING.

In discussing the future prosperity OF
| Des Moines, lows, a prominent citizen OF
| the pia ce recently declared that too many
of its capitalists go into the banking and
loaning business. Money-lenders he said,
live off other people instead of helping
other people to make their living, as is the
case with those who establish manufac-
turing enterprises. He argued, therefore,
that until the capitalists of Des MONIES
turn their money from banks to manufac
| lures, the city would never have the full
prosperity to which its many resources en-
title it.
Taking this as a test, the Iowa State
Registe says that while the advice is good
it by no means covers the whole subject
Banking does not stand in the way OF
manufacturing. There are other reasons
why Des MONIES has not succeeded in
making the best use OF her opportunities,
and these reasons the Register sums up by
saying:
Des Moines has tried to get manufactories.
1t has offered bonuses and other inducements,
but they seem not to have thrived. They have
not thrived because Des Moines people have a
habit of buying goods made away from home.
But the way TO start factories is to begin at III
beginning. The great factories of the world
have nearly all commenced small. From the
rivulet has grown the river. A factory is not
something that comes to q town full grown.
But it comes as an infant and it grows into
full stature. The successful manufacturers
are men who have had the patience to build
up gradually as they have plospered. Des
Moiues has to-day many of these small indus
tries, which some day will be great concerns.
All that is necessary for them is time.
The discussion fits San Francisco as il it
had been made for us. In this City as in
Des Moines it has been said that our CAPT.
talists run too much to banking. II has
been argued here as there that we want
more men to develop our resources even
il to obtain them we had to reduce the
mum Der OF men who loan money. In San
Francisco, therefore, as we'll as in Des
Moines. 1T is necessary to remind the
people OF the facts stated by the Register.
The people OF San francisco have not
thrived as fully as they should because,
like the people of Des Moines, they have
habit OF buying goods made away from
home. They have not learned the lesson
that the best way to build up great manu-
features is to encourage small ones. A
little shop will grow into big plant If it
is properly supported by the people.
When Calilornians learn to give that su D.
port to every small industry that is started
within the borders of the State then they
will have begun the new era which will
result in making this one of the great
est man ufacturing commemorative OF
America.
1t is full time the lesson should be
learned, and our people, in preparing for
the resolutions they will make on New
Years day, should resolve now to make
one pledging them to patronize California
products. When we make San Francisco
home market we will have gone far
toward making it a city OF home industry.

AN INSPECTOR OF WIRES,

| The dreadful accident which befell Fire
man McCabe while fighting the flames on
Christmas day seems to have been due to
a wire badly placed along the walls OF the
| building, on the roof of which he was at
work. 1t is another evidence of the great
risks which firemen run in fulfilling the
duties of their calling, and OF the i'm
portance of having careful inspection OF
the roofs OF all buildings in the City, so
that they may not be in danger OF death
| by the carelessness Of others.
1t has long been known that the multi
plication of wires along the streets and
across the roofs Of houses in American
cities is a source of great danger TO fire.
| men. Over and over again has the press
had to record the fact that the life OF some
brave man has been sacrificed by the way
in which the wires are placed. 1t would
not be fair to put the whole blame OF these
accidents upon the companies which
string the wires. 1t is the duty OF the
City to see to it that they are put into
position where they will be as much as
possible out of the way of firemen, and
until some thorough supervision OF the
kind is provided such accidents will con-
tinue to be common.
The City of San Francisco ought 30 have
an inspector of wires. He ought to be
member of the Fire Department, or at
least associated with that department.
He should be provided with sufficient
corps of men to exercise general super
vision over the City. He should have au-
thority to compel all companies that string
wires, whether along the streets or over the
roofs of buildings, to place them in proper
manner.
Such an official, if he attended to his
duty. would more than repay to the people
the cost of his salary. His services would
save the City from many fires, and would
aid in preventing the spreading OF those
which occur. VIVA. is most and greatest,
however, is that he would spare to us the
life of many brave fireman, and save us
from q repetition of such dreadful acct
dents as that OF Christmas day.
