PATROL WAGON DRIVERS.

ID Y the recent order OF the Board OF Supervisors
~ discharging all patrol drivers now in the en-
= poy OF the city and placing the selection and
appointment Of employees OF that branch of the mu-
r:cipal service in the hands of the Police Department
true reform was effected in the city administration
1t is therefore inevitable there should be opposition
to it. The bosses who profted by the old system
and who used the positions OF patrol drivers as part
az the spoils OF office for distribution among their
followers are Of course eager to set the reform aside
and return TO the old way. A movement has been
made in the Board OF Supervisors to conform to their
wishes to partial extent at least and there is now
under consideration motion to defer the date when
the reform is to so into effect from November to
December IS.
The issue in the case is simple one If the patrol
drivers be placed under control OF the Police Depart
1nent there will be a clear responsibility in that de-
partment for the selection OF proper men for the ser
vice At present the places are given out at the die
taton OF ward bosses and designed as rewards for
partisan activity rather than for the work OF the
municipality The patrol drivers are OF course in
close relations with the police force and are virtually
part OF that force 1t is therefore fitting they should
be under the control OF that department.
Nor is there any good reason why the change in
the system OF appointment should be delayed When
a thing is worth doing it is well to do it promptly A
postponement now would be precedent for another
postponement later on. The reform is good one
It is in line with the progress which has been made
in eliminating boss control from our politics. 1t is
opposed only by Kelly and Crimmins and men Of
that kind It will work a marked Improvement in
the patrol service and be also help and advan-
tage to tho Police Department in the performance Of
the work that is required of it 1t should therefore be
maintained as it stands

MERCHANT MARlNE SUBSIDIES.

= COMMISSIONER of Navigation Chamber
/ lain has made an important contribution
~ TO the discussion OF the merchant marine
! bill by an official report showing the amount
of subsidies paid to their commercial marine by the
greater nations OF the globe. The showing IS by no
means fatterng to the United States, nasmuch as 1t
reveals that we are far behind rivals in the race
for commercial supremacy.
Subsidies to shipping are granted tor various pur-
poses such as mail contracts, service in time OF war
retainers TO seamen for the training OF apprentices
and for fishing bounties In OF these purposes
does the United States offer such inducements are
offered elsewhere Taking the payments as whole
it is noted the United States stands far down the
list, paying only $I,o3S,I4I for ocean mails carried
in American vessels France, which is making
strenuous efforts to build up strong merchant feet
stands at the head Of the list with payments under
various headings aggregatng $7632,242. Great Brit
ain comes next with $5,762762 paid to ship-owners
and seamen as the contribution OF the Government
toward maintaining British supremacy in ocean COM
merce Japan comes third with payments aggregat-
ing $34o2Io7. These are amounts paid by other ma
tions: Italy, S2I85,266; Germany $I89462o Aus
tria-Hungary, $I,724249; Spain, $I62oo27; Russia,
SI.I6SI8z.
With that official record before them OF what other
nations are doing promote commerce II IS certainly
tC be expected that members OF congress Will pass
shipping subsidy bill at the coming session. Our
export and import trade is enormous, but it is
red almost wholly in foreign vessels. Senator Frye
estimates we pay 100000 a day to foreign ship
owners for Transporting our commerce and the drain
makes a heavy reduction annually from profits
We have been liberal in providing for the up
building OF our industries land, and the results
have been so remarkable as to constitute OF the
marvels OF the century We are now able to
acure not only for our own needs but vast quantities
Of goods for foreign markets. A similar policy Of
protection and promotion carried out with respect to
our shipping would eventually enable American
terprse to be as conspicuous the it is now
on land.
The issue was submitted to the people at the last
Presidential election. The Republican party at that
time took strong ground in favor OF an American
merchant marine and gave emphatic pledge to the
people provide for its augmentation and expansion.
That pledge has not yet been fulfilled and now an
other Presidential election is approaching. Under
such circumstances it is clearly the duty OF Congress
TO provide for our mercantile marine at the coming
session.

CAMPAIGN BANNERS.

y MOTION was made at the meeting OF the
I \ Board OF Supervisors on Monday evening to
so amend the order forbidding the stretching
OF campaign banners across the streets to permit
that nuisance on all streets except Market and
Kearny Thanks to Supervisor Holland the board
was saved from hasty and inconsideratc action the
subject and the motion went over for reconsideration
at the next meeting
The proposed amendment has nothing to justify it.
Either the promiscuous swinging OF unsightly
stretches OF canvas over our thoroughares is nu-
sance or it rs not II it be nuisance why permit it
in any part OF the city? If it be not a nuisance why
prohibit it Market and Kearny? In what respect
are the people who pass along those streets entitled
to more consideration from the municipal authorities
than the people who pass on other streets?
The order prohibiting that form OF public nuisance
has been we'll received and cordially approved by the
community. There is no objection anywhere to the
artistic decoration OF the streets with banners which
are in themselves bright and fair to look upon and
which have festal significance Campaign banners,
however are anything rather than artistic. They are
simply huge advertising posters displaying in lurid
letters the name OF some aspirant for Office. They
mar the appearance OF the streets and in many in
stances are as offensive to the mind to the eye.
There IS no reason why the streets should be given
up to that kind OF advertising Candidates for Office
have many by which to parade their names
and their virtues before the voters without granting
them the privilege OF turning the streets into pano-
rama Of tapping canvas with their names displayed.
Before the subject comes up for reconsideration the
Supervisors will have opportunity to learn some
thing of public sentiment on'the The political
banner stretched across the serious nuisance
in the eyes OF the great mass OF the community.
There is strong sentiment in favor OF supprcssing it.

GENERAL GREEN'S VIEWS.

F irrigation has father in California that person
is General VIII 5. Green, whose views The Call
published yesterday. We are OF the opinion that
an examination of his position will show him that the
water storage movement is one solution OF the very
difficulties which he presents. The present laws for
the enjoyment and distribution OF relate to the
normal flow OF the streams and originate in riparian
rights. The application OF the common law OF II
parian ownership has undergone certain statutory
notifications, and the water is subject to judicial
distribution, according to its use, but need not
enter now into these details. They all concern the
normal flow and not the foods.
With the storage of food waters we approach an
other view OF the law OF distribution that is not at-
fected by riparian ownership subject any Of the
limitations now imposed.
As General Green is aware, many ditch and canal
companies which have sold permanent water lights that
go with the land have oversod That is to say their
sale Of water has been measured not by the minimum
normal flow nor by the average, but by the maxi
nunl-by that flow that fills the banks. The result
is that when dry years come and the flow is at the
minimum they cannot deliver the water they have
sold as permanent right. While one may severely
impeach their lack of foresight, or may call by d
harsher their sale OF they cannot be sure
OF possessing, hard judgment on them does not re-
Ieye the irrigator He needs the water, and if the
ditch-owner can find it in reservoir where food
water is stored he can be compelled to get it and
fill his contracts.
Aside from this the distribution OF food water will
be independent of the difficulties existing and
well described by General Green. We hope to see
him in the coming convention, for he has much to
teach and will meet there many who have much to
learn.

THE MIsHAP TO THE SHAMROCK.

N EGRET at the mishap to the Shamrock will
X diminish the pleasure the American people feel
in the second victory OF the Columbia. Sir
Thomas Upton has shown himself to be so genuine
sportsman and thoroughly manly in all his ac-
tons in connection with the race that he has won
the esteem and friendship of Americans, and in his
i'll luck he has the cordial sympathy OF all.
OF course the accident was one OF the things the
builders OF the Shamrock should have guarded
against The object OF the international contest is to
determine which nation can build the yachts best
fitted for ocean racing Strength and stanchness are
qualities which in such yachts must count for as
much as speed, If in their efforts to gain vast
spread OF canvas the British overtax the strength OF
the mast other parts OF their yacht they must
bear the loss. That agreed upon at the time the
terms OF the race were settled and the rule is as fair
for the as the other.
That fact, however, will not in any way diminish
the regret over the accident 1t is desired the races
should be free from mishaps to either side The
occurrence is the more regretable because the race
in which it took place was one in which the British
have always claimed their yacht would show its best
points II the Shamrock be beaten in the race on
Thursday she will not have another chance over tr
angular course. Sir Thomas has not had the 'Lipton
luck in this venture. He is game sportsman how
ever and is likely to be daunted by one disaster
He has repeatedly said that il beaten in this match he
will come back next year with a better yacht From
that we may draw the conclusion he will enter the
next with stronger topmast and the Ameri-
can people will be glad if his good luck return and
give him weather which will show his gallant yacht at
its best

WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY..

I ! HlLE considerable number of newspapers
w have kept out OF their columns all reports OF
the brilliant successes achieved by the Mar
conf system CT wireless teegraphy, it is to be noted
that the more influential journals in the East have
been superior to such petty eaousies and have given
to the work done for The Call and the Herald by
Marconi the most outspoken and cordial praise
The Philadelphia Ledger, for example says: cal
though the yacht races have been nconclusive, the
Marcon system OF wireless telegraphy has proved
beyond any question its practicablity and value 1t
has been employed under rather unfavorable condi-
tions-that is to say, with the sending station
boat pitching about in rough sea and during foggy
weather-but at all times with complete success. Not
a single hitch has occurred, and the number of
sages and received has far exceeded the ordin-
airy demands upon a commercial line. The special
value OF the bulletins sent from the Ponce to the
shore lines is that they record from the scene OF the
race itself the events as they happen. The bulletins
sent from shore stations unreliable estimates OF
the positions Of far distant yachts, which at times
not be distinguished, and the messages sent from
other boats following the are necessarily de-
layed long time before they reach land lines or
cables Wireless telegraphy, therefore, has field Of
It's in reporting events at sea, and the OF
the system quite obvious"
The people OF San Francisco have had con-
vlncing proof that the estimate put upon the Mar
conf service by the Ledger, although high, is not in
any way exaggerated The bulletins from the
have been full the occasion called for, and as
the Ledger says, they have in quantity OF words
ceeded the ordinary demands upon commercial
wire. Persons in this city watching The Call bule-
tins have kept pace almost with the yachts as they
sailed the news OF each incident OF the race being
posted here within two or three minutes after it
occurred
Wireless telegraphy has in fact, been accom-
plished. 1t cannot be ignored. Sooner or later the
very journals that pass its marvels over without
word OF information to their readers will have TO
take up the story and tell it This yacht will be
memorable in the history of the world, not because
OF any particular distinction in itself but because
furnished striking opportunity to attest civiliza-
ton the usefulness OF wireless elegraphy and demon
strate its practical value not only journalism but to
commerce.

MR.. BRYAN'S LECTURE RATES.

Ma R. BRYAN, according to all reports, has been
making good deal OF hay out OF the political
sunshine which has been glowing so brightly
and warmly Of late in the Mississippi Valley A
special correspondent OF the Philadelphia Record
quotes Cabinet official saying that for his speech
at Canton, H. the silver aspirant for the Presidency
was paid $6oo which is surely good reward for a
two-hours' talk.
When asked by whom the money was subscribed
the official is reported TO have said: by the citizens
OF the town and the people interested in the State
Fair which is in progress this week OF course Bryan
is attraction and he brought several thousand peo
pie to town who would not have come otherwise
Thus the subscribers had opportunity TO get their
money back l assume it is all right for Mr.. Bryan

rihed for who poses as the leader OF the
Democracy and as prospective candidate for the
Presidency to accept money for his work Of educat-
ing the peopleF
While the Record correspondent does not give
the name of the Cabinet official, the statement
The San Francisco call., 1899-10-18

regarding the fee paid to Bryan for the Canton speech
has been confirmed by reports from other sources.
Whether it be dignifed in a candidate fo- the Pres-
dency to charge for addressing the people depends
upon the kind OF man who is posing as candidate.
1t would be undignifed in Admiral Dewey to charge
tor his appearance at any particular city, and it would
make money by such means. Bryan, however, is a
character unique IN our politics Stumping the
try at State fairs for coin is not undignhed in him

formances He has right to lecture for coin and
