JOSEPH CHAMBERLAIN.

N HARLIAMENT being out OF session and the
~ Prime Minister in retirement nursing the weak
ness OF old age, Joseph Chamberlain though
holding the comparatively subordinate office of Sec
reary OF State for the Colonies seems to be virtually
the British Government His is the brain that devses
the policy OF the empire at the danger point in the
Transvaa and is his voice that gives the commands
which set all the arsenals and the navyyards OF the
empire to working day and night, hurries troops
the ocean, and, while protesting in public a
desire for peace sounds warlike in every tone
There have been many extraordinary careers in the
history OF parliamentary Government in Great Brit
ain, but hardly any that is strange than that Oh
the al-powerfu Colonial Minister Something like
fifty years ago the son OF rich Londoner was
sent by his father to Birmingham to engage in the
work of a manufacturer. He grew up to be sue
cessfu business man, but his chief interest was in
politics. He began as a republican, and at one time
joined in movement to start agitation for the
abolition Of the monarchy upon the death of the pres
ent sovereign In those days he was one OF the men
whom the Conservatives of Great Britain the sup
porters OF the crown and the church. regarded with
the utmost detestation They Knocked at him, they
sneered at him. They called him 'Brummagem Toe ;"
the Capital 1" the "Petty Jack Cade" and dozen
other things. 'I am the worst abused man in Eng
land he said on one OCCASION and he had good rea-
to say it.
One statesman of the time of his early career put
different construction upon his character and his
conduct No man did Chamberlain more severely
attack those days than Disrae but that cynical old
politician refused to take him seriously. "He wishes
to be Duke" said Disraeli and dismissed him with
4 sneer

Success of the State Fair.
Pa cifc Rl1rnl Prpss

AS foreshadowed in last weeks Pacific
Rural Press. the State Fair this year has
proved exceptionally great in point of
popularity and patronage 1t is described
from Sacramento as the most largely
attended and successful fair the capital
city has ever known. 1t is stated that
the receipts exclusive Of the pool privilege,
amount to close on to SIS, ,000 as against
Sl4,705 last year. The society will realize
$4,000 over expenses. This result is
largely due to the most diligent and we'll
planned effort made by the management
this year to popularize the exposition in
every possible way and TO the fact that
Sacramento was we'll aroused to the ad-
vantage which the fairs are TO the city
interests. 1t Is very important to Sac
ramento that such record is being made
and 1t will make it's mark, no doubt, upon
future legislation. The management Of
the society also did very wisely in en-
listing the interest and good will of local
journals and in furnishing available news
to all avenues of publication. Secretary
Shields has certainly won his spurs in
this contest and should be duly honored.
We are we'll aware that some Of the
attractions at the fair were anything but
agricultural, but they seemed to be neces-
sary to win popular interest, and, hav-
ing this, the exhibitors of strictly agri-
cultural excellence were indirectly advan-
tagged by being able to reach wide assem-
blages. Make the fair more popular and
it will draw more exhibitors Of the better
sort

goes far confirm the satirica estimate put upon the
sincerity OF his republicanism by the Tory leader.
Chamberlain broke away from the Liberal party at the
time of Gladstones home rule bill for Ireland and
ever since then has become more and more Tory.
He has never, however had the full confidence OF the
Conservative party, and when the present Ministry
was formed the leadership OF the Commons went to
Balfour, and Chamberlain had to content himself
with the office OF Colonial Minister one which has
hitherto been good place for OF business
training and executive ability, but hardly place in
which an aspiring politician could make dis
tingushed
Chamberlain, however. has proved there is more
in the than there in the Office He has eclpsed
his colleagues who hold higher Offices in the Cabinet
and has almost overshadowed the Prime Minister

OUR MERCHANT MARINE.

y 7 a meeting last May the Chamber OF Com
\ merce OF this city adopted a series OF resolutions
declaring that whereas the interests OF the whole
country. increased employment for people,
larger home demand for the products OF our farms,
mines, our forests and our factories. the rein
forcement OF our navy, the enlargement of foreign
markets for surplus products the reduction in
rates OF transportation, would all be promoted
by the restoration OF merchant marine in its for
position on the seas of the world: and as the
rapidly increasing opportunities for commercial ex-
panson and the employment of a larger shipping
upon the Pacific, ior the transportation OF grow
ing exports, emphasizes the need OF establishing and
sustaining American merchant marine equal to the
needs OF our foreign commerce. therefore. it is the
opinion OF the Chamber OF Commerce of San Fran
cisco that it is the duty of the Congress OF the United
States at the earliest day possible to enact legislation
to secure restoration on the lines recently reported
favorably to both branches Of Congress by the Com
nlittce on Commerce on the part OF the Senate and
the Committee on Merchant Marine and Fisheries on
the part OF the House
Since the adoption OF the resolutions the Chamber
has not been inactive 1t procured the introduction
OF the issue the attention Of the Mississippi
Congress at Wichita and urged it with such success
that the congress adopted resolutions in line with
those OF the Chamber itself, and is now making
further efforts to impress upon the National Congress
tic urgent need OF promp. and effective legislation
for the upbuildng Of our shipping industries
1t is gratifying to note the activity of Our Chamber
OF Commerce in this important work. The Pacific
Coast has as much to hope for from the upbuildng
OF the merchant marine OF the nation as any other
section. In fact it has more TO look forward to- for
the Atlantic Ocean commerce is now we'll supplied
with shipping and any ships launched upon its
waters by Americans will have strong competition
to in the foreign ships but the commerce
of the Pacific is an expanding The shipping ade-
quac for the trade Of to-day will fall far short OF
the demand OF the trade that is to be within few
years. The question is whether the United States
shall furnish the additional tonnage need for the grow
ing trade, whether Europe is to be permitted to
do it.
This issue is In fact the pressing that will come
before Congress with the sole exception OF that OF
currency reform, It has been under consideration
long time and there should be no further delay in
dealing with it
The San Francisco call., 1899-10-04
THE SENATE AND CURRENCY REFORM

= RON reports that come to from the East If
| appears there is doubt whether the Senate
will enact any important measure of currency
reform at the coming session of Congress- The Phil
adephia Record claims to have accurate inside
information that the Republican committees OF the
House and the Senate which have been considering
the matter cannot agree upon definite scheme OF
legislation On the other hand Congressman Bah
cock Of Wisconsin, member of the committee Is
quoted by the Times Herald of Chicago as saving
that while the Senate Committee has not yet con-
Cured with the bill proposed by the House Com
mtee the objection would be overcome and that the
bill is likely to pass both houses
The measure agreed upon by the House committee
radical and it would be severe setback to the
prosperity of the country if the Senate should inter
pose to prevent its enactment The Senators can
hardly fail to recognize the importance of the issue
and the urgency OF the need OF settling the question
this session 1t Is time take the finances of the
nation OF politics and to establish Our monetary
system on the gold basis beyond dispute
Upon what ground the opponents OF currency re-
form expect the Senate defeat the will of the
pie has not been made known. That the hope is a
forlorn one is clear The administration is pledged
to reform the monetary system and will urge upon
Congress- The great mass OF the people favor it.
and the House is to pass currency bill and
send to the Senate early in the session There will
doubtless be hard fight against it, but as there is
not only good Republican majority in the Senate
but several sound money Democrats like Lindsay of
Kentucky and Caffery OF Louisiana to vote for it,
its passage seems fairly we'll assured, despite the
rumors to the contrary
