A RAILROAD VETERAN.
Death of William Close, After Long
and Busy Life.

The death is announced of William
Close, a veteran railroad man, who
passed away at the Railroad Hospital
in this city on Sunday night, at the age
Of rs years.
Deceased began railroading in Ire
land, which occupation he resumed on
arriving in Chicago in 1858. In 1866
he came to Sacramento and entered
the employ of the Central Pacific Com
pany, remaining with the company un-
til forced by old age and illness to give
up a few months ago.
His funeral will take place from the
Cathedral at 2:30 o'clock this afternoon.

are planted as closely together on cor
a single, substantial mast would carry
all the wires without any interference
or danger of it. There ought to be ex-
animation into this whole business, with
view of ascertaining how many of the
poles that now disfigure the streets can
be dispensed with.
It is a question whether when the
franchises were granted they gave the
right to put a close network of electric
wires over the city, canopying it, in
deed with danger. The question may
well be considered whether the grants
carry the right to string hundreds upon
hundreds of wires Independently, when
they might be carried in one or two ca
bles, thus reducing the danger from
them to the minimum. One of the tele-
phone companies, without suggestion or
threat from the city, but simply because
it realized the danger to its own inter-
ests from so many exposed wires
strung overhead, has placed it's lines
throughout all the business section in
sub-ways, and is preparing to steadily
extend this underground system. This
proves that the thing is not only pos
sible, but that it ought to be done, and
assuredly SO in the case of any new
grant of privileges.
No one wants to cripple any cleo
trical industry, or throw in the way of
investment by electrical companies any
impediments whatever. There must be
no oppressive and no Gripping exac-
tions. But for all further stringing of
wires there should be a new rule. 1t
ought to be determined also whether.
under the franchises already granted,
there is any Limitation 70 the number of
wires and poles a company may put up.
Whether, indeed, the holders of fran
chises can go on and double or triple the
network now overhead, instead of con-
gesting wires in cables.
OF course where the grants have been
made to plant poles there can be no
revocation, though there certainly may
be regulation On proper representa-
tion, we believe that agreement may be
brought about under which many of the
disfiguring poles can be dispensed with.
Certainly, the many that are in no use
whatever can be ordered down, and
they should be at once.

The free market suggestion of the
Record Union has met with general
favor 1t only remains for the author
lilies to take some action that will bring
the market into existence. AS a means
of promoting the interests of the sur
rounding country, upon which Sacra-
mento is so much dependent, and which
everyone wishes to be advanced in the
highest degree the free market will
prove the very best. 1t will bring con-
sumner and producer directly together.
1t will insure rapid cash sales. 1t will
stimulate consumption and conserve
economy on the part of the buyer. 1t
will enlarge the variety in market and
give us the best instead of tail-end
products. The City Trustees should at
once take up the matter, have 1t re-
ferred to a proper committee to formu-
late plans, designate place for the
market, and fix date upon which it
may be opened.

Our evening contmporary has one on
it. In an editorial approving the sug
gestion for a celebration of the fiftieth
anniversary of the discovery Of gold
and of the acquisition of California, it
quotes with Introduction and warm ap-
proval from the expression of the Red
Bluff Peoples Cause:
If such a celebration is held, then
Sacramento should be the heart of it
ALL There, by historical fitness, the
exposition should have it's chief inter-
est, though the celebration should be
marked by appropriate ceremonies in
every city, town and hamlet in the
State.
The pith of this is found in the fact
that the Peoples Cause" quoted the
editorial expression from an editorial of
the Record Union" Of the 9th inst,
in which this paper set forth the whole
matter, gave credit to the Stockton
Mali for the original suggestion that
there be some such jubilee, and which
the Record Union" supplemented with
the proposition that Sacramento should
be the chief seat of the jubilee ceremo-

NOTE AND COMMENT.

The following is an editorial note from
the Los Angeles Express: ''The
heavy snow which fell in Frisco the
other day, illustrations of which ap-
peared in the papers of that city, show
that those who want a mild winter eli
mate must spend that season south of
the Tehachapi Snow is no more agree
able in San Francisco than in New
York and people do not need to cross
continent to Sc it." And that is what
the Express calls fair play. There is
no mention of the snow fall in the south
end be it noted, nor yet of the fact that
the snow fall in San Francisco and the
snow fall in New York were widely diff
ferent, and that the first was infinitely
more agreeable, since it was brief, phe-
nomenal and not accompanied by cold
weather.

John Burns, the English socialist
says: "If England is wrong fighting
will not better her cause. IF she is right
arbitration will net make her case any
worse" So we find Burns and his fol-
lowers in favor of the Chicago plan for
a permanent arbitration tribunal. But
there is a fallacy in the statement of
Burns easily discerned Fighting might
not make a case any better for Eng
land. but it might make it much better
for the other nation. Arbitration might
not iniure her cause if she is right in
her contention, but it might at the same
time ruin her cause and by preventing
the demonstration Of the right by Dip

WASHINGTON, Dec. / 1t is not
probable that the house at the coming

plished at the short session hey ond the
passage OF the regular supply bills.
Still the house with its instrumentali-
ties for the expedition Of business can
accomplish a great deal in brief time.
The question Of legislation for addi-
tlonal revenues for the government
will depend on the senate, to which
body the house sent the Dingley bill
almost year ago. Should it be i'm
possible or be deemed inexpedient to
press that measure through the senate,
there is, of course, a possibility that the
proposal ~. f.

may take tangible form, and, il SO,
such legislation must originate, under
