MCKINLEY IN THE SOUTH.

I \RESlDENT McKINLEY'S journey through k) the South has been something like grand tour Tn celebration of restored Union Ii has been marked at every stage by demonstrations of Southern loyalty and Northern confidence All classes of Southern people have taken part in the welcome. Old veterans of the Confederate army and oung men born since the war ended Bourbon Dem ocrats Of the deepest dye and negroes engaged in the arduous task ot advancing their against Bourbon preudlces have all united and ved with one another in doing honor to the chief magistrate of the nation
 These jubilant demonstrations were not caused wholly by the fact that Mckinley IS President of the United States. Much of the cordiay of them was due to the personality of the man. By his speeches frank and sincere in word and tone the hearts of the Southern people won even more than by the august dignity of his high office Other Presidents n4.de tours through the South Hayes Cleveland and Harrison visited that section but none of them made anything like the impression that Mckinley has made.
 Undoubtedly one of the potent factors in the src- of the Presidents conciliaon was the manner in which he had recognized Southern vaor and loyalty during the with Spain. The appointment of Southern generals to high command in the army proved to the South that Mckinley held no feeling of animosity against the who wore the gray but on the contrary regarded their military skill with admira ton and had confidence in their patriotic love of the Union.
 striking illustration Of Southern sentiment on the subject was given in a recent statement of Henry Watterson, who in an interview at Washington said: ''I probably shall vote again The signing of the commissions of those two ex-Confederate vet

erans Fighting Joe Wheeler and Fitzhugh Lee, marked the certain dawn of that era for which have labored 1 am satisfied now"
 It was noted at the time that Mckinley made more speeches during the campaign of I8o6 than were made by any other candidate who was elected and that all of them appropriate to the occasion and to the audience-terse, pointed and animated by lofty sentiment This felicity of speech, so marked during the canvass has been strikingly displayed Tn the Southern tour He has addressed Southern audiences the delicate subject of the Civil War in words that won their rapturous applause, but without saying word that offended the most patriotic veteran o the North. He has spoken to negroes of their advance ment both in social and in political life in way that aroused them to enthusiasm but without offend ing the Southern whites.
 When all things taken into consideration the tour IS one of the most notable in history. It was genuine triumph by strong and winning per sonality oldtime antagonisms of North against South and white against black and entities Mckinley to high rank among the great constructive states men who have conciated ancient foes and restored to their country not only prosperity, but harmony and patriotic love

COUNSEL FOR MR. BALDWIN.

F E. J. Baldwin, owner of the lot at the corner of
 Powell and Market streets recently covered by the
 Baldwin Hotel and theater, has been correctly re- ported in the newspapers, measures ought to be taken to change the current of his thoughts and bring him back to realizing sense of his duty to posterity and the public. Doubtless Mir Baldwin has been subjected to great deal of unkind criticism since the Baldwin fire. Instead of sympathy having been extended to him. abuse and detracton of various kinds have been heaped upon him. This IS contrary to the usual custom in civilized communities, and we do not blame him for feeling resentment in consequence.
 But his determination to erect a lot of shantes upon the hotel site and open a choice collection of dives in the cellar for the purpose of getting the people, is certainly short-sghted and con temptible. With such improvements he might, per haps he says, make his interest and taxes but the corner established in consequence would become cancer spot which would require elimination.
 If MT. Baldwin yearns to get his detractors he should hunt them up and engage them in vocal and fstic gymnastics. In that way he might obtain the satisfaction he desires To visit his spitefuness upon the people of the city, however, substantially all of whom are innocent of offending him, is uncivized and barbarous and he may be sure that if he attempt do it they will unite and make him great deal of trouble.
 What he should do with the Baldwin Hotel site is to either erect upon 1t new structure devoted to commerce or sell it to some one who will do so. The corner is too valuable to be devoted to beer saloons cheapjohn clothing stores, cgarstands barber-shops and dives
 If Mr. Baldwin anything for the opinion of posterity-he says he nothing for the opinion of his contemporaries-he will proceed on business lines in this without reference to the criticisms of thoughtless people who have abused him wthoyt cause If he take any other course he will suffer financially NGillionaires may bid defiance to their individual detractors but they be brought to time by united public opinion and the indignation of an entire community

DISCIPLINE FOR A MONOPOLY.

\ HILE the Gas Company acknowledges, when \AI cornered, that 1t has right to exact de-
 posit from customers, and while 1t will place meters without exercising this imposition when the customer knows his legal status and refuses to yield 1t nevertheless takes a deposit every time per mted to do It frightens the tmd and caoles the unnitated, the result being that its strong box is heavy with money derived from forced loans. On these loans 1t pays interest, but the handsome az gregate must bring to the corporation enough to materially fatten its dividends.
 As to the quality of light furnished the accuracy of measurement, the scant courtesy with which just protests met there is need here to treat Per haps with the prospect of competition these matters will regulate themselves. However there are means by which the public be in measure protected against the wrong 1t suffers by of the illegal deposit True there is statutory remedy but the law is often slow, and appeal to costly The specific method of correction rests with the Legislature.
 By the time the Legislature meets there should have been prepared bill defining the demand and enforcement of demand for deposit a felony This would solve the whole problem Such bill could not be defeated because the justice of would meet with instant and general recognition Too many out rages have been committed in the name of the gas monopoly too many have felt the sting of its arro- gance, for it to be able to muster a sufficient oppo- sition.

The protest con- cludes:
 we fully believe that the best interests of San Francisco require at least one. dl- rect main thoroughfare to Golden Gate ton and free from heavy traffic. The bou- levard of Golden Gate avenue from Van Ness avenue to Devisadero street should be preserved for this purpose, and we earnestly request that your honorable committee will report unfavorably upon this objectionable resolution.

 There general conclusion that no good was in Dunning and yet at last he has created for him self gleam of sympathy. The human heart is kind and quick to perceive good It that in certain of Cummings orgies he had the companionship of who to the trial bear no possible re- lation. Nevertheless, he asked to reveal their names. He refused to do so. It was proper and manly that he should have refused. Uncomplain- ngy he went to jail for contempt rather than betray and disgrace those to whom he asked to be a despicabe traitor. It was the first outward ind- cation of decency in the composition of Cunning; and the court ordered him to jail for it.
 There is something anomalous in such a circum- stance. He can day after day detail his shameless acts and go unscathed save perhaps in conscience of which there is no visible token An inclination to be honorable seizes him, and cell IS the penalty

It is also allacy that colonies recoup the country that owns them for the expense of their government of the public Of their total trade, by other taxes laid upon their people
 The cost to England of the above colonies is an nually 23,7o4o35 pounds sterling. Their revenues to her treasury 23,I3642 pounds sterling There is annual outgo of $II8,o74675 and $II5,5 2Io in come and deficit of $3,4o6465. Yet England has the best managed colonial system that has ever ex isted

That is all England at present gets out of her colonies, and Spain, too. And for us Germans, colonies would be exactly like the silks and sables of the Polish nobleman who had no shirt to wear under them"
 It is easy to see that the building manning and operation of our navy and the maintenance of a standing army of 100000 men, the support of Military Governors, the transport service required in moving 10 distant stations by and the portaon of rations and equipments, and the shipping of coal to coaling stations will bring our military expenses made necessary by this new policy, up to $I25,ooo,ooo year. We will get this out of our tropical colonies It must out of our home tax payers, with the effect of doubling their public bur dens.

* * * MR. CUMMINGS * * AND * .. THE RING.

m m n a fly caused his heart to cease beating and that made his patent protected smile look like 30 cents in a fog. MT. Cummings has a fondness for jewelry, and he is the pos sessor of a rare collection of gems Lat terly he has developed penchant for diamond rings, and to satisfy this crav- ing, and at the same time try his luck. he has been investing in tickets, ranging in price from cents to s2, which he holds as chances on a very fine and costly dia- mond ring which Is to be rallied off MT
 Cummings has about fifty of these tickets of the $2 kind, for he does nothing on cheap basis. He has made it a rule to in vest in these tickets whenever the idea occurred to him, and the idea has bobbed up in his mind several times a day. Last week two of his friends walked care lessly up to the counter in the hotel. and pretending not to notice Mr. Cummings
 who was studying the register, they began to comment on the fact that it was A shame that the person who had the ring in his possession had skipped the town with over 5000, the proceeds from tickets sold, and the ring as well. MT. Cum mings, as soon as he caught the drift of the conversation, immediately lost four pounds in weight, had a nervous chill and swore at bell boy. Visions of fifty tickets worth just fifty snaps of his deli cate fingers filtered through Mir Cum mings' mind. His dreams of the beautiful solitaire vanished, but he did not lose his wits. on, no, on the contrary he began to look out for number one with a great degree of alacrity. Presently MT.
