SAN FRANCISCO, March 2s.-The
Korea. built by the Cramps at New
port News for the Pacific Mail Steam
ship Company. at cost of 1000, 900
returned from her builders trial trip OF
March 81, after having made most
satisfactory run of IS hours. Under
partial forced draught she developed a
speed of twenty knots, which is two
knots more than the contract requires
under full-forced draught. On the re-
turn trip she made the run from Cape
Henry to Old Point Comfort in just
one hour, under natural draught. This
is record time.
Among those on board were General
superintendent w. A. Post, of the ship
yard; Vice President r. p. Schwerin,
OF the Pacific Mail Steamship Com
pany, and Captain Seabury, late of the
China: all of whom. together with the
naval officers on board as guests. were
loud in their praise of the excellent
conduct OF the ship. Captain Seabury
navigated the Korea, and will COM
mand her on her run to San Francisco
and thereafter.

Cleveland, the democratic party is
without competent leadership, and,
so far as we can observe, stands for no
substantial reform which the populist
party does not better represent, and
there is no more reason why populists
should desert their ranks and muster
under the banner of democracy than
become republicans and lose their
identity, and there is no reason for
either''
And even as the Shiny mass disap-
pears down the nav of the hungry
reptile, we hear that same plaintive
voice saying:
1.-The populist and democratic par
ties differ radically and irreconcilably
on certain well known issues; for in
stance, on government ownership of
telegraphs, telephones, railways and
other natural monopolies, and it is
the height of folly for democrats to
undertake to dissolve the populist
party and absorb it's membership.
Doesn't that strike you as being
rather rich? Undertake to dissolve
and absorb" :" AS though the dissolu-
tion was not complete, and the absorp-
tion all but over. Why such a
crushed, lacerated, manned relic
should wish to live, a hopeless cripple,
burden to itself and all eye-sore to
the other animals, does not appear.
Better were it to draw in it's horns,
or allow them to be drawn in, and be
decently and quietly swallowed, just as
the rest of the menagerie predicted
when the simple steer first began
grazing in the boa's particular section
of the jungle.

largely increasing
the salaries of judges of the federal
courts will be passed during the
present session of congress Since as
a rule lawyers of character and ability
are. under the appointive system,
chosen for federal judges, and they
give their exclusive attention for life
to their official duties, it is possible
that the proposed increase in their
compensation is proper. In general,
however, the salaries of public officers
are already too high. The chief test
of the amount of the salary they
should get is the value of the services
rendered by the men who are actually
chosen to fill public offices; and in
general the salaries are at least 33 per
cent larger than the value of the men
who get them, rated in the open labor
market. There is much contention
that the salaries of judges of our
supreme court are much too low; but
this contention will not stand our
practical test. The lawyers who are
chosen for judges cheerfully abandon
their Large and lucrative practice" to
draw the "meager salary of the
judicial Office. This alone is strong
evidence that they are paid all they
are worth and this test is we'll sup
ported by experience and observation.
No one will dispute that we ought to
have stronger bench in this state,
but the increased salary would be
generally thrown away in the attempt
to secure it under the present partisan
elective system Of choosing judges.
Present compensation would bring bet
ter judges than we now have if we
knew the way to let them in. Until
we find the way the true public
policy is to save the extra salary.
Just as competent men as now fill
them would be found for other public
offices under much lower salaries, and
by proper adjustment of official
salaries according to market or COM
petitive values, the present conten-
tious clamor for these offices would
cease, the tenure of the officer would
be longer, and the public would have
the benefit of the resulting greater ex-
perience and skill

Conceding-solely for sake of argu-

death he declared no longer necessary,
but on the other hand burdensome

two or three years behind him into

to the rear in coming out of it.
Again granting-solely for argu-

power for good, listen to the warning

so many hundreds of thousands of re-

clusiveness is past The expansion of
our trade is the pressing problem.
Commercial wars are improbable.
A policy of good will and friendly
trade relations will prevent reprisals.
Isolation is no longer possible or
desirable. We have a vast and in
tricate business built up through
years of toll and struggle, in which
every part of the country has it's stake,

lect or undue selishness. No narrow,
sordid policy will subserve it.-Our
capacity to produce has developed so
enormously, and our products have
so multiplied, that the problem of

jerk him forward into this century.
Then and only then, will the world
feel the commercial supremacy of this
