The attention Of the resident and
also that of the chance sojourner in
san Francisco is invited TO the fore
going enumeration OF prominent street
corners in this city, because large
oulldlDgs are under construction on
every one OF the corners mentioned
with the exception OF one. and on that
one, Polk and Turk streets. q struc-
Iure 10 cost at least $s5O.O00 viii be
erected this year for the German House
association The plans have been
drawn and other steps taken that make
il certain that the structure viii soon
be under way.
This is less than four years from the
time when all these corners were swept
bare by the flames. They viii soon
be covered by high class improvements

valuation. with land included Of not
less than 100000 Possibly that will
not fail to appeal either 10 local pride
or 10 the outside capitalist who watches
local progress as a sort OF financial
barometer wOrths consulting.
Included in the somewhat striking
array are only two buildings for pub
lie use, that are being constructed with
public funds The two are the hall of
justice and the new custom house
Every other one is financed BY private
capital and is devised for business uses.

Fellows building. which are for private

The significant fact pertaining TO
great part OF the entire line Of i'm
provenents is that the owners Of the
lands and buildings viii not occupy
them personally. The lots were owned
practically by the same persons before
the great fire as now. They always
had confidence in the psrmanency of
values in San Francisco corners. They
are now building with an assurance OF
long time leases that will yield hand
some incomes.
There are many other large building
improvements in progress in the city.

10 enumerate them
In the buildings under way at the
corners are three splendid bank struc-
tureS-the Union trust company, the
san Francisco savings union and the
Anglo and LondOn-Paris national bank
They have special value in pointing out
popular appreciation OF local real es-
tate values, because they are owned
and improved by the most cOnserva-
tive fnanciers on the Pacific coast, the
San Francisco bankers
Among the business structures are
several of very high class. One OF
these is the 10 story class a NewhalI
building in California street at Battery.

To Fiqht Labor Unions.

At a secret meeting held recently In
Washington, at which were alleged to
be present a number Of manufacturers
and certain congressman who have
heretofore had TO fight for their po-
litical lives because Of their attitude
toward organized labor as represented
In the American Federation Of Labor
and a few others, the National Labor
alliance was organized. The object
of this new organization Is to combat
the influence Of the American Fedora
ton Of Labor in politics. Frank Nor
rison, secretary Of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor, is reported to have
said of this organization: eff such an
organization has been formed and the
truth could be known Its membership
will consist Of John w. Hays, grand
master workman of the knights Of
Labor, and such capitalists as he can
interest to finance an organization
which, according to the objects out
lined, will be practically an auxiliary
of the association of manufacturers
which for some time past has been
seeking to cripple the efforts Of the
unions. Brooklyn Eagle.

That there ought to be either gates
or flagmen at several points in the city
where the railroad crosses main
thoroughfare goes without saying
The danger to the life of man and beast
has been emphasized in the past few
days ma manner which should cause
the city council to demand that these
crossings be guarded. 1t is pertinent
to enquire as well why the overland
passenger trains go through the freight
yards at an approximate speed of q
miles an hour If anyone cares to keep
tab on these trains they can see most
every day passenger train crossing
Pacific avenue on the fly. Many teams
and delivery wagons 90 up and down
Pacific avenue and when the yards are
filled with freight cars as is often the
case it is a place of danger. Something
should be done at once by the railroad
company to guard these crossings. It
wouldn't bankrupt Jim Hill - place

be self-protection against damage suits

peal to the Great Northern system ii

A union in this city in order to raise
funds for the Hatters, who were on
strike as well as to impress a lesson on
the minds OF it's members. adopted a
frisking system, which worked we'll In
the midst of the business of the even
ing committee would be suddenly ap-
pointed by the chair to search the hat
of every member present The unlucky
owner of any hat not bearing the label
was promptly fined a nominal sum and
the amount so raised sent 10 the
striking hatters. II might not be a
bad idea to adopt the system in other
unions and extend It TO suits as we'll.
No union man ought to wear a nom
union garment but many Of them do.
In most cases it is because Of thought;
lessness, or because the dealers tell
them that the union garment is inferior
in quality or higher priced. There may
be score Of reasons why union men are
negligent in this very important thing
of demanding the union label but none
of them will hold water The man who
purchases a non-union piece Of goods
when the same article made under
union conditions is to be obtained, is
just as surely aiding the enemy as the
veriest strike breaker. He may not
realize it but It is true John Mitchell
in his great Toronto spesch uttered
these sentences which should be remem-
bered by every worker; III all the
workingmen had been true to them
selves, if they had been true to their
obligation, there would have not been
a non-union article on the market. The
trouble with us is that we are 50 con-
eerned with our own affairs that we
pay little attention TO the affairs Of our
fellow unionistt If the working1nen
could realize that they are the real EN-
ployers of labor; if they would in their

too anxious TO supply the products
men want to use, and the manufaetur-
ers will willingly supply the merchants
with the products they demand The
difficulty has been that the union man
has not insisted upon the union label
or upon a union product when he went
to spend his money. 1t is true that
there are some men who have con
