WHEN PROMOTERS DISAGREE.

~ F the Nicaragua canal enterprise it may be said
| the President desires it. Congress favors it,
~ the people wish it, the nation needs it. and
yet it is doubtful if it will be so much under
taken for many year to come Certainly the out
look at present promises nothing more than discus
sion and debate ending they began, with disagree
ment the part OF the debaters.
The difficulty in the way OF the accomplishment of
the enterprise is that there are too many promoters
and they have too many plans for promotion. There
is strong faction which believes it would be better
tc buy out the Panama Company and complete that
canal rather than undertake across Nicaragua
on any conditions Among those who agree on the
Nicaragua route there are some who would have the
Government construct we'll control the canal,
and others who prefer that the Government should
back the Maritime Canal Company and have that
poration perform the work Finally, among those
who agree that the Government should undertake the
enterprise there are some who would vote against it
unless it be shown that the construction will not
entail a cost much in excess of SIoo,oooo 900.
All these differences OF opinion might be settled
were it for the fact that there is strong and
powerful body of men who do not wish them settled.
Every shifting OF the channels of trade, matter
how much it benefits the community generally, in
jures somebody. There interests that will suffer
by the opening OF shorter water route between our
Atlantic and Our Pacific coast
The men who control these interests neither
blind weak They perceive the situation clearly,
ard they have organized for fight II they keep
the friends of the divided they will do it.
They have sense enough to know that the best way
to defeat enterprise favored by the people is to
suggest two or three different ways of doing it and
then stand aside while the argument goes on and
the factions get heated
From the extent to which the Panama canal scheme
has been exploited in the United States since the
made clear to people the immense importance
o. short route between the two it is evident
that the policy of the opponents of the canal is to be
that of dividing public sentiment on the issue. IT.

THE PUBLIC POUND.

0NF of the first acts of the Republican Board of
| ] Supervisors which will take office on January
~ l. should be to dismiss the Poundkeeper ap
pointed by the present board and restore the control
of the Pound to the Society for the Prevention OF
Cruelty to Animals Once before the institution
under Democratic rule became disgrace to the city
and Republican Board of Supervisors gave it to the
Society The present condition of affairs is due to the
desire OF Democratic Supervisors to make places TOR
politicians.
Under the jurisdiction of the Society for the Pre-
vention of Cruelty to Animals the Pound for several
years was conducted with humane regard for the
rights of dogs, goats, horses, and their owners
Not a single scandal put in appearance throughout
its regime The moment, however, the Pound was
taken away from it and placed in the hands Of poll
tician it became of complaint and annoyance
all around During the past year Pound outrages,
Police Court prosecutions and street arays resulting
from the attempts of hoodlum deputies to capture
cstray dogs have been an almost everyday occur
renee.
Under the present law it will ever be difficult to take
the Pound of politics. since the Supervisors may
al any time any policy that may have been
adopted The resolutions of one board are not bind
ing upon another, and, have already seen, Re-
publican boards take the Pound away from the poll
tcians and Democratic boards give it back to them
The latter usually resist to extent, but as the
genius of Democracy in San Francisco is ofice-hod-
ing and creating offices for the members of the or
ganzaton," they finally succumb to the blandish-
ments OF the push"
What should be done with the Pound is to abolish
the system of fees under which it is conducted. The
Board of Supervisors ought to pass ordn-
ance establishing the institution firm and
during basis. This would have to go before the
Mayor, and change OF system could take place only
by the enactment of a repeating ordinance and the
consent OF the Mayor Ordinarily, the Pound is Sub
verified by combination OF machine politicians who
possess few political resources and if barrier
of this kind established the difficulty of
turning it would probably be for them insurmount-
able.
At all events the Pound should be taken out of
politics by the Supervisors There is not much
spirit in the Society for the Prevention OF Cruelty
Animals; had there been, the present Supervisors
would have hesitated before they naugurated the pre-
vailing Pound regime. But action by that organiza
ton need not be awaited The Supervisors owe
something to the and children OF the CITY, who
are always the victims OF hoodlun Poundkeepers.

THE MINERS ASSOCIATION.

II the vigor with which the contest has been
~ waged for the presidency OF the California
- Miners Association evidence is given that the
convention is to be something more than a per
functory meeting and that the importance OF the
work OF the association is recognized by It's members
This evidence is gratifying The association IS one
o. those industrial organizations from which the State
has right to expect mach. Despite the vast amount
Of treasures that have been taken from her mines,
California is still land whose mineral resources are
comparatively undeveloped. To hasten that develop
rnent there IS needed the cooperation OF all who are
engaged in mining, and it is through the State Asso-
citation the cooperation can be best effected.
There are certainly strong reasons why the proceed
mos of the convention should be marked by spirit
OF earlestness and zeal The time is propitious for
general revival OF mining in all parts OF the State
The drought OF the past year seriously ntertered with
placer mining and even quartz mining in some places
suffered from a lack OF water. With the coming OF
the rainy season prospects brighten for both classes
OF miners and accordingly mining enterprises are
more favoraby regarded by investors
Moreover, in addition to the work which the asso-
citation has on hand in the direction of obtaining legis
lstion favorable to the mining industry from the
Government and the enactment of satisfactory min
era lands BILL there will be that required to prepare
for a suitable exhibition OF mining industries and
resources at the Paris Exposition That work cannot
not be possible to arrange really comprehensive
exhibit if the task is put off to the last moment and
then undertaken in furry and carried on in haste.
1t is to be hoped something may be accomplished
at the convention which will bring into the association
fuller representation OF the mining interests OF the
south That section OF the State is rich in minerals,
and is even less developed than other sections The
men who are interested in southern mines have there
fore strong reasons for cooperating with the State
Association in working for all that tend to
the benefit OF the industry
At this time the world is searching for gold more
vigorously than Improved methods of treating
ores render it possible work with profit mines that
Il few years ago would have been worthless. Cali
fornia ought to reap large profit from the new
impulse toward gold mining and the processes Of
working. She will do if the value of her mines
is fully made known to the world and the Government
enacts legislation favorable to the industry 1t for
the Miners Association to to it that these things
are done.

APPORTIONlNG THE GLORY.

7 ESSIE A. SCHLEY asserts with a pleasing
81 confidence that she brought Spain to terms
~ She tells how she presented the case over there
with diplomacy acute than mere statesman
could command and how, before her unanswerable
argument, the monarchy trembled with apprehen-
sion and then took tumble to itself. Had the
proves of this young woman been understood in
advance her persuasive appreciated and the
magnetism of her presence matter of record, there
would have been of the turmoil of war; and the
captains, instead of shouting, could have stayed at
fatigue hats Now that Miss Schley has told her
story opinions will have to be revised, and the
erroneous belief that the affair was brought to a
speedy close by Richard Harding Davis cast aside
This will be blow to Richard but in Difference to
the lady he must take it.
We grab this opportunity to place upon certain
stories concerning Miss Schley the brand of disap-
prova. 1t has been said that in going to Spain she
guilty of mpertinence, that she constituted
pitifu display of assumption, and that in propelling
her across the border and in the direction of home
Spain performed the most fitting act of its entire
campaign. We felt sorry for the woman ashamed
OF her and wondered why her family did lock her
in the cellar and let her do her conversing into a
phonograph-later, of course, destroying the phono-
graph.
Such apology as is due Miss Schley is hereby ten
dered. She is silly guy, chattering with the intel
gence of parrot No, sir. She is great She says
so herself and she ought to know. Now let her go
