in railroad warfare alone; it obtains in
about all things else so far as the venai
press is concerned. 1t is common thing
to read in it that this or that man,
woman or Institution has been charged
thus and so, and has failed to disprove
it, or that he or she or it is under
charge" and has failed or neglected to
refute it. Indeed, this sentiment, if it
can be SO dignified, has to a remark
able extent fastened upon the minds of
many people in California until, in the
language of a distinguished jurist, ''it
has become sufficient to convict by sim
ply prefering a charge, and thus char
acter is placed at the mercy of men
dacity."
Now, in the case of Mr. Stubs. that
gentleman, who has had charge of the
traffic department of the Central Pa
cific Railroad for twenty-five years,
made complete denial of the worn re-
peated charge that traffic has been di-
verted from the Central Pacific road to
other lines operated by the same man
ayers, and that there has been dis
elimination against the Union Pacific.
He pointed out that his company does
not hold in its power all the traffic in
California. Thirtyfour per cent. of all
the railroad mileage in California is alb
solutely independent of any control by
the Central Pacific, Union Pacific or the
Southern Pacific Company, and that
rates are higher on that thirty-four per
cent. than the rates of the Southern Pa
cific Company. Mr.. Stubbs pointed out,
in contradiction to an oft-repeated lie,
that rates have for fifteen years been
steadily reduced on the California rail-
road system; that the through rates
from California are the cheapest in the
world, while passenger rates WITHIN the
State are about the same as IN otner
States, excepting perhaps New YORK
and Pennsylvania.
Mr.. Stubbs denied point blank the
charge that it is possible for one road
to make through rates which are and
ALWAYS must be the result of concert of
action by the many roads involved
Mr.. Stubbs further gave fiat denial to
the charge that shippers are not per-
mitted to choose the route over which
they wish their goods to go; on the con-
trary said the witness the truth is di-
rectly the reverse, and the company
has to solicit the shipper to secure
traffic for it's routes.
And so on he made denial after de-
nial of common charges, denials fiat,
open and unequivocal, and accom-
panied by recitations of the truth in re-
gard to the subject. But what effect has
this testimony had? Simply to bring
from the mendacious press reiteration
of the charges and reassertion of the
falsehoods without adducing a scintilla
of evidence in support of them. We are
inclined to agree with the statement we
quoted the other day: You cannot cor
ner a newspaper liar"

Because the Congress of the United
States suggests that there be fair play
in Cuba, and that if a state of warfare
shall be continued there, it should be
conducted upon a humane basis, the
Spanish people menace the American
Legation at Madrid, necessitating in
reference on the part of the local Gov
eminent. That will probably result in
the passage by Congress of a Joint
resolution" declaring recognition Of the
independence of the Cubans, and over
which resolution the President will
have simply veto. AS it stands, the
concurrent resolution amounts to moth
ing more than a declaration of senti-
ment on the part of the United States
Senate and of the House, if it should
pass that body, as it will.

critics Of the San Francisco press?

Germ. 1t sang I'll Trovatore'' and Car
men" here on Saturday to good houses
and thoroughly pleased audiences. 1t
is true that Tavary did not impress the
audience profoundly, but LIGHTER
Guile, Dorre, Tomlins, Eugene and
Schuster did, for they pleased and sat
isfed. The singers were excellently CO.'S
tuned There was nothing shabby
about them. The chorus of twenty-six
voices was strong, even and true, and
the orchestra of sixteen pieces was
more than superior-one Of the best or
chestras heard here in years. Guille's
reception at the matinee was more than
enthusiastic. His holding of upper
and pushing the tone up to D fairly
electrified the house. LIGHTER charmed
her audience by her strong, limpid so
pranO, a DIT troubled with tremulO
effect, and Tomlins as Azucena proved
one of the best contraltos in action that
we have ever heard. The woman is
born to dramatic art on the lyric stage.
Dorre at night in Carmen greatly
pleased and more. The opera is not to
our taste-to US, not musically attrac-
tive. 1t has few gems of song and
small wealth of melody. But it is a
popular opera for it's vigor, and the
broad field it affords for fine dramatic
art and muscial expression of passion,
and of this Dorre availed to the fullest
extent. She has a resonant, splendidly
sustained mezzo-soprano, a tireless
voice, more dramatic than musical, but
full of fire, animation and the flash of
spirit Then she is a wonderful Car
men dramatically. In that respect she
left nothing wanting. All in all, the
Tavary Opera Company was pleasing;
far more deserving, greatly more so,
than the San Francisco press had led
this public to expect. 1t was far and
away superior to many troupes which
have come to us thick with fulscEae
Iaudations of the metropolitan papers.
