EVIDENCES OF PROSPERITY.

N nEPORTS from the Atlantic seaboard States
~ to the effect that the demands Of traffic have far
exceeded the ability OF the transportation COM
panies Ships said to be waiting at the docks for
cargoes that have arrived merchants wait for the
delivery OF goods ordered long ago. and the internal
trade OF the country retarded by lack OF cars to
carry it on
A striking illustration OF the extent to which the
demand for transportation exceeds the present ca
pacity OF the railways is given in the fact that two
railways alone, the Pennsylvania and the New York
Central, have recently placed orders for $4,000 coal
and freight 1t is to be noted moreover, that
these are to be OF the largest capacity. About
twenty-five years ago the ordinary freight car had
capacity Of 10000 pounds Improvements in railway
BEDS in locomotives and in car construction admitted
increase in the capacity OF freight cars by rapid
degrees, and is said the new cars for the two great
trunk lines named will have each capacity of 10000
pounds Thus the number of cars ordered will be
equal in carrying capacity to 10000 cars OF quarter
Of century ago.
The orders given by the Pennsylvania and the New
York Central roads have attracted attention by rea
son OF their magnitude Those, however, are not the
only lines which have placed orders for cars and loco
motives, The traffic OF the country growing out OF its
abounding prosperity has everywhere exceeded ths
ability OF the transportation companies to properly
handle it, and almost every important railway in the
Union is in the market purchasing increased equip
ments for freight and for passenger service.
The vast augmentation OF traffic which has made
necessary the demand for such an increase in the
freight equipments Of our roads has been due Of
course to the abounding prosperity Of the country
and that in turn rests in small measure upon the
legislation which has given confidence to the business
interests and industries OF the people The same con-
dltlon of crops and harvests would not mean pros
perity for the people at large if our manufacturers
were exposed to the competition of foreign cheap la
Dor, or if finances subject to the meddling
and muddling OF free silver fiat money statesmen
Out OF these evidences of prosperity therefore can
be drawn added reasons why the intelligent business
and working OF the country should give their
support to the party OF sound money and protection
in every contest which arises whether in city or
State, or nation. The difference between good and
bad legislation be estimated by the difference be-
tween the good years are now enjoying and the
bad years of the Democratic regime

THE HEIRS OF EMPIRE.

M ANY and various are the arguments put forth
by the imperial press of the country to sus-
tain the contention that in the war in South
Africa the sympathy OF the American people should
be with the British rather than with the Beers One
of these is sufficiently curious to be worth noting
illustration OF the of the ambitious dreams
OF Our imperiastic fellow citizens AS expressed by
the Philadelphia Record it runs in this way:
The Muscovite and the English-speakng races
are gradually dividing the earth between them.
America has become the most energetic exemplar Of
English push but it is Great Britain alone that
gives this country free access to all the markets
which she controls For this reason if for no other
is to advantage that the British empire should
be extended. And to the future-is not the heri-
tage all to be ours? Certainly unless Great Britain
herself should prefer that her great empire shall pass
to strangers to her blood institutions and language
Great Britan's pre-eminence has been built by her
sturdy upon her iron, coal and fleets. She can
not possibly sustain her fleets when the iron and
coal shall be gone The center of empire must then
drift to the United States-the center of power
giving production"
That is to say, the British are to exhaust their
coal, iron and energy in conquering about half the
globe, and then the United States are to enter upon
the field as heirs OF the British empire and take pos
session of the estate The British therefore, are not
overrunnng South Africa for themselves but for us.
1t is an excellent view to take of the subject but
has the drawback OF presenting the American eagle
in the aspect of vulture waiting to fatten on prev
the lion has killed.

OUR INTERESTS IN CHINA.

y CCORDING to reports from Washington
| \ Government has been informed that Italy is
perssting in her claims for port and sphere
OF influence in China in order be on something like
equal terms with other European nations 1t is said
to be the intention Of the Italians to occupy San
Nun and use that as a basis from which to extend
Italian trade and build up Italian interests in China
as extensively circumstances admit.
In certain sense our Government has nothing to
do with the claims OF Italy in China any more than
with the demands OF the Russians the Germans, the
British or the French 1t has been announced that
the United States has given notice to the powers that
will take part in the partition OF China, and
will make no efforts to obtain port there, but will
insist that the trade rights OF the merchants OF the
United States be respected and guaranteed in
those parts OF China which have passed under the
influence OF other nations
The policy outlined is the right one for to fol-
low. Without any port or sphere OF influence OF our
in the past we have built up considerable trade
with China, and it is steadily increasing Our trade
is not with any particular district but with the en-
pire OF China and it would be foolish on our part TO
surrender the right to trade with the whole empire
for the sake OF obtaining port and district such
as the European nations are struggling for.
Secretary Hay is reported have given the various
European powers understand that this Government
proposes that the provisions OF Its treaties with emma
shall be observed even in the spheres Of influence
which each has obtained, and, to make certain that
such observances shall be continued American repre-
sentatves have been directed to gain written guaran-
tees that no restrictions will be placed upon American
commerce
Such representations our part will not be ig
nored. Since the Spanish the United States has
been recognized world power of the first rank,
and prestige in the Pacific is too great for any
nation to willingly challenge 1t is altogether prob
able, therefore, that trade interests in China will
be respected so far ourselves maintain them,
and, fortunately, statesmen we'll aware
Of the value of the commerce OF the Orient they will
not be neglectful of opportunities there.

DISHONORABLE TACTICS.

IHEN Joseph Britton, after accepting nomi-
\A nation for the office OF Supervisor from the
Republican party, waited until the last mo-
ment and then deserted, giving his party stab in
the back as he went, it was believed such dshonor-
able tactics would not be repeated in San Fran
cisco politics. The unexpected, however, has hap
pened. A. S. Haldie has become an imitator OF
Britton He also has deserted his party, and has
timed his deserton so that his attack could neither be
guarded against refuted
Honorable men will not envy the record made by
these allies OF Phelan II Britton had honest be-
lief that the Phelan ticket was better than any the
Republicans could nominate he should have stood for
Phelan from the start There evidently design
in the trick he played, and the design does more
credit to his cunning and his malice than to his sin
cerity or his self-respect.
Hallidie has had weeks OF time in which to an
nounce his protest against consideration OF ma
tional politics in this campaign. During the whole
period OF debate and discussion he kept silent His
course was as secret and sneaking that OF r
snake in the grass When he thought it too late for
Horace Davis to reply, Haldie struck at him. That
is the record If such dishonorable tactics profit

pie OF San Francisco
