it, and therefore we may confidently ex-
pect the conference committee to reach
speedy agreement, and report the tariff
bill in shape which will be acceptable to
both houses in time for it to become a
law before the close of the coming week.
By accomplishing this task the Repub-
lican party will have achieved a victory
almost unparalleled in our history. 1t
will have drawn up complete new tariff
within time much shorter than was re-
quired by any preceding Congress. More
over there Is reason to believe the tariff 1t
enacis will be so satisfactory to the people
OF the Union and of every industry that
tariff agtations will cease to be a part of
our politics This will be an accomplish
ment to which the Republicans in future
conventions may justly point with pride,
ana will go far toward winning for the
party that public confidence which will
retain it in power for the rest of this gen.

THE GOLD CONVENTION.

The meeting of the International Gold
mining Convention in Denver, Colo, is
movement of great importance in the
material world and may be counted on to
produce good results. A large production
of gold is most potent force IN starting
the wheels of all other industries. and as
one of the objects of the gold convention
is to induce investments in mining the
precious metal it may result in more
money and the large prosperity that
plentiful money brings with it.
As Governor Adams pointed out in his
speech to the convention, civilization has
not yet advanced far enough to find any
practical substitute for gold and silver as
money metals, and according to their
abundance has civilization advan ced
Gold is 10 trade what the life blood is to
the body, and all prosperity stagnates
when the flow is weak and restricted. He
stated that it was not merely accident
that made the wonderful progress in busi-
ness and intelligence which followed the
pillage of the gold and silver OF Mexico
and Peru and the discovery OF the precious
metals IL Australia and California, but it
was the operation of positive economic
laws.
1t is noteworthy that the fact was made
clear, with assurances of perfect informa-
ton on the subject, that gold m ining
when conducted as a legitimate business
is profitable. 1t is mainly those who go
iuto it without the exercise of the ordi-
dary business prudence that characterizes
other investments who lose heavily and
so give goId-mining a bad name, as if it
were a species OF gam bling.
1t is further urged that never was a
better time for profitable investments in
gold-mining, as the cost of production is
less than ever before. In Idaho, it was
said, there is mill which reduces the ore
for 81 so per ton, and there are now rail-
roads so nearly everywhere .hat the old
serious problem of eightsis largely elm
mated.
With these inducements held out 1t is
to be hoped that much idle capital will be
brought out of its hiding and invested in
producing these money metals, which will
give a stim ulus to all other prod uctions.
Hoarding money when there is an oppor-
tunity for reasonably profitable invest
ment is a crime when we consider how
the whole community suffers in conse-
quence of it.
1t is gratifying to note that this con-
vention appointed a committee to promote
the appointment of a secretary of mines
and mining with seat in the Cabinet.
This is measure which THE CALL and
the miners of California have long advo-
Gated, and it is pleasing to have the po-
tent aid in its accom- pIishment given by
the convention at Denver.

A BAD TANGLE.

1t is reported from Sacramento that
authorities versed in the school laws of
the State maintain that nearly 1000 teach
ets of tho public schools will be unable to
draw any pay for their services until the
next session of the Legislature. The
opinion is founded upon the law which
provides that no warrants shall be drawn
in favor of any teacher unless such teacher
has faithfully performed all the duties
prescribed. One of the prescribed duties
is that each teacher must keep a State
school register. These registers, it ap-
pears, can be obtained only from the Sta e
Printin: Office, and since that office has
been closed the registers cannot be fur
nished, the teachers cannot perform the
duty required, and, therefore, cannot re-
eeiye their pay.
II this opinion is well founded we are
confronted by a bad tansle. On the face
of it nothing can be more absurd than
that teacher should be deprived of pay
ment for service when the State has not
provided him with the means of perform
ing that service, No one should be made
to suffer for the wrong of another, ard if
our teachers can be deprived OF their pay
the part of State official it would seem
that every public servant could be de-
priyed of his pay by the enactment of
some law compelling him to use State
blank which the State might neglect to
furnish.
Such a method of paying old debts
would open very easy way for the prac
tice of economy. The State could dis
pense with the payment OF pretty nearly
all official salaries by some simple require
ment of the kind. 1t is to be hoped that
our law, even by the most technical con-
struction, does not support such practice
as that. The schoolteacher, no more than
any one else, can be required by law to per-
form an i'm possibility, and if State school
registers are not furnished by the State, it
is clearly impossible for the teacher to full
fill the statute which calls for the use of
them.
1t is announced in the report from Sac
ramento that the subject has been brought
to the attention OF the Attorney General,

THE TARIFF CONFERENCE.

Now that the tariff bill mas passed the
Senate we enter upon new phase of the
controversy. 1t is no longer q question OF
how NJ uch opposition the free-traders will
make TO the measure, but of an agreement
between the protectionists of the House
and those of the Senate. The issue at
present is involved in uncertainty. Ac-
cording TO some authorities the House will
readily concur in the many amend men
made by the Senate, and according to
others it will insist upon the schedules of
the original bill and force the Senate to
recede from the alterations it has made.
In its last analysis the issue depends
upon the degree of discipline which pre-
walls in the Republican party. If the
leaders can act together the difference
will not continue long before basis OF
mutual agreement is reached. If they
cannot act together We shall have a repe-
tition of the wrangie which took place be-
tween the Democrats of the Senate and
those of the House over the Wilson bill.
This being the case, the country has
little reason to doubt the speedy enact
ment of the law. The Republican party
differs from the Democratic rarty ir
many respects, but in none is the differ
ence more notable than in the degree of
harmony which enables the party to act
together in every crisis. The Democratic
leaders have failed at every critical period
of their history in recent years by reason
OF their inability TO agree. In Congress,
in their National conventions and even in
their State and county conventions their
meetings have resulted in dissensions and
faction fights instead of the adoption of
definite policy OF procedure.
With the Republicans, on the other
hand, every crisis has served to bring the
leaders nearer together, to rally the rank
and file in closer loyalty to the party or
ganization and to strengthen the party as
the governing factor of the Nation. 1t is
not likely that this crisis Will result diff
ferently from those which have preceded

FAME AND GASTRONOMY.

Darwin gorged every now and then on plum
cake. Byron, after overindulgence in the
way OF liquids, lived for weeks on biscuit ana
soda-water. When he was abroad he pur-
chased a goose and carried it ABOUT with him
in basket in his travelling carriage. But
when the time came for the slaughter the
poet had become so fond OF his feathered COM
panion that he declined to have 1t killed.
Newton often did not know whether or not
he had had his dinner. Swift lived IN DupIln
on monotonous diet of mutton pie. SheAey
was content with bread or anything that hap
pened to be at hand. Richardson was yege-
tartan and an abstainer, ana 'IhacKeray,
though partial TO French cookery, retrained
from TOO free Indulgence in IL.
Alexander Dumas was iond OF preparing
dinners Tor his friends. Toward the c.ose OF
Beethoven's life the old musician became
trife particular in. his demands upon other
people and one time dismissed has house

of friends to dine with him, but the feast was

UNITED STATES AND THE SUN.

IULARE, CAL, July z.
To the Editor Of The Call: In your issue OF the
18th OF June, you quote an article by Mr.. Jor-
dan in the Ladies Home Journal for July, in
which it is stated that 1.-The sun never sets on
the domain of Oncle SAM" because when it is
P. at Attou Island it is 8 80 A. NJ. OF the tol-
lowing day at Eastport, Me.
This statement is not true. Mr.. Jordan
gives the difference in longitude between
Eastport, Me-, and Attou Island as 126 deg,
which corresponds 10 8 hrs and "a min.
time, consequently as Eastport is east of At
tou Island. and the time is later as we go
east, when it is P NJ. a Attou Island it is not
:36 A. NJ. of the following day, but 2:24 A, NJ.
or the same day at EeStporl, Me. That is, II t
is 6 P at Attou Island on Sunday, 1t is "a
A. NJ. Sunday at Eastport, Me. The reason IL
we gain day i'll crossing the 1S0th meridian
and Attou Island is west of that meridian,
While Eastport, Me-, is east Of it.
Suppose the day is the 2lst OF September
when the sun RI es and sets at bout O. clock
nj both Attou Island and Eastport. Me. At
. P. NJ the sun sets a Attou Island. and it will
not rise at EastpOrt, M, until A. NJ, so
when the whole OF the United States and
Alaska are in darkness. Later in the season
the sun sets at Attou Island before P NJ. and
rises at Eastport, Me-, later than a. NJ, so
that the time OF darkness increases up to
about the 21st of December and then de-
creases.
1t is evident that the only time when the
on the domain OF Uncle Sam is when the
time between sunset at Attou Island and sun
rise at Eastport, Me-, is less than hrs. "a

CONVENTION TRAFFIC.

The first of the many successes which
we NAV confidently expect from our
efforts TO entertain the Christian En0eavor
Convention has been accomplished by the
railroads. They have succeeded in bring
ing to this City a number of visitors large
enough to constitute a considerable army,
and they have done so with degree OF
dispatch and excellence which merits no
little commendation from the general
public.
The railroad managers understand bet
ter than any one else the magnitude OF
the work they have performed, and some
of them have very Justly lndulged in ex-
uitaton over the successful manner IN
which they accom- plished it. The general
passenger agent of the Rio Grande West
ern announces that between the morning
of July l and midnight July his road
handled and delivered TO the Southern
Pacific Compa at Ogden about 14,O0O
Christian Endeavor passengers, and had
at that time eleven more trains in sight
which would raise the numbe OF passen-
gers to more than Is, 000
This is the traffic handled by one of the
many roads from the East which connect
with the transcontInental lines that lead
10 San Francisco. 1t is estimated that the
total number of visitors brought 10 the
City within a week will exceed 80, ,00O
This enormous traffic is in addition 10 the
regular business of the roads, and it is
significant of the general excellence of our
railway system that the official of the Rio
Grande Western was able to say that dur
10 20 Hrra
not had a wheel off the track and our
trains have moved over the line with not
to exceed over three hours delay in any
instance"
1t will bs remembered that objections
have been made to San Francisco as a
National convention city on the ground
that the railroads could not handle the
large crowds which would desire TO at
tend. This objection was urged with
great vehemence last year when an effort
was made to bring the Republican Pres-
Dental convention TO this City. The sue
cses which has just been achieved by the
railroads affords a comp etc and sufficient
answer to any such objection in the
future.
1t is not likely that more people from
lDe EaSL WOulA utSlIc W dttSuO RISdt
po itical National convention than have
come 10 the Christian Eudeavor meeting,
and since our roads have with 50 little
friction and with almost no delay brought
the 10000 people to this meeting, when
such large numbers were unlocked for, it
goes without saying that they could
easily handle any crowd that would be
likely 10 come to National convention
of either of the great parties.
The refutation OF this old charge against
our railroad facilities is matter of no
small Importance 70 the State. Even if
we never get Preside ential convention in
this City it will still be an advantage
to US to have demonstrated our abil-
ity TO bring large numbers of people
across the continent and to ftly enter
tain them when they arrive. We have
therefore gained something already from
tue Christian Endeavor convention, and
have good reason for rejoicing hat it came
to US.

The spectacle which is presented this week
OF thousands of Christian Endeavorers tray
cling from all parts OF the United States to

an evidence of hard times. They are making
a trip which back and forth will consume
week. They are using seeping-cars and have
al the comforts of luxurious travel. They
will occupy hotels and boarding houses an

pose extending their trip to various PAGES OF

and if so, 1t is to be hoped he will see his
way clear toward cutting the Gordian knot
Of the tangle, if he cannot unite it. Cali
fornia is greatly indebted to the services
of her public school teachers. These men
and women amply deserve the payment of
their labor and it should not be delayed
by reason of quibbles in the law or because
OF failure on the part of higher State o.
ticials. We have seen the City of San
Francisco deprived by legal technicalities
of the right to pay its creditors, and that
is as much of that kind of thing as the
State can stand. II there is any techni-
cality in the way Of paving schoolteach-
