Having pondered over the matter for several days, am still of the opinion that the San Francisco Gas and Elec- tric Company IS no more right to the s5 deposit exacted from customers than a footpad has to the purse he takes at the pistols point. Also that the morals actuating the two processes of .rob- bery are on the same plane. The latter point might be termed irrelevant, but readers may have noticed that the for mer is to be tested in court. Every day somebody relates to me tale of fraud committed by this concer- with it's army of trained meters Not long ago a friend rented furnished --ouse, the owner having already the s5 on deposit.

Chicago Record. :: For years there
has been a great deal OF compliant
among dealers in cereals that certain
spectators in Chicago and other cities
have had access in advance to the regu.
lar crop report OF the agricultural de-
partment, and thus enjoyed u profitable
advantage over those who we're COMPEL
ed to await the official announcements.
Every secretary OF agriculture for
several administrations has been ap-
pealed to in this matter, and each has
taken steps to protect the reports and
prevent information from leaking Out.
Bvt none has been successful until Sec
rotary Wilson, without prejudice to any
particular individual. decided to make
an entire change in the personnel OF the
statistical bureau. Since her the CON-
plants have stopped, and he is eratitied
at receiving assurances from the various
boards OF trade and other commercial
organizations throughout the country
that the leak is stopped and that every
body Interested obtains the information
at the same moment.

us in a much better light and on higher
moral grounds before European counties
and by settling the dispute amicably with
Spain we would get q clear title TO the
whole grasp and have fewer pecunlary
damages a%fterward. How much it will
take to buy off Spain ,s not known. She
wants money bad. hard cash ut once,
and cares nothing for the Philippines II
she can only turn them into cash. She
will make big demands TO begin with
and take very much less TO end with.
What the president is not decided upon
is how much to give and get gu with
the least AMOUNT. II will probably be
enough to cover the Philippine debt for
municipal and public improvements
and jus, ns much more as Spain can be
induced to compromis" on. We did not
go into a war OF conquest we asserted
on the start and a fair indemnity for the
Philippines would be carrying ont our
Humanitarian purpose for going to war.
We have precedent for thus paying for
territory ever after a successful war VAS
