The traveling men, it is true, do not pay any attention to a man’s responsibility; that is, gener- ally speaking. And why is it? One rea- son, the houses as a rule do not ask it of them, and such things require some time and thought. It has got to be a habit with the boys(abad one,it is true), to sny. well, I am going to sell him all the goods [ean, and thev (meuning the house) can sce about the pay. This has been brought about by the houses not consulting the salesman more about his trade, and by houses saying we will pay you 50 much for selling such an amount of goods without making any condition ard to the loss figuring any against him. Now, some may we have a fine judge of credits. We will grant that; butean you point to a crodit man that does not lose money for his house. Inanumber of cases if there had been a careful watch kept on the customer by the salesman, and his views given any atteation by the credit man. the greater amount of the account could have been saved. If houses should say to their salesmen, “We want you to make out aspecial ve port on all of your customers at least twice nyear, 50 as to enable us to ke, posted,” then the boys would feel i some of the responsibitity rested on their shoulders, and would look into the matters more carvefully. And an- other thing, let a man be shown once an three months, say, how his 0- wmers stand with the house. Often a man will send in mail orde and in that way increase his account bevond what the salesman would allow had ho known it. There is no doubt but what plenty of men get a bettor rating than they are entitled to, and traveling men can sometimes tell the eredit man some things that would benefit him on this subject. One thing more, in order to get some of the hoys to give their opinion. I think a house doing a large business should create a job in the w of an assistant credit man. This man’s business would bo to visit all the trade once a year 1d make note of each man, his habits, how he handles his stock, his general appearance, the size of the town, resources of the country, how much territory he has to draw trade from, ete. Then the credit man sitting in tho ofice can revie the field notes of his man who has been there, and can tell somothing about him. Moreover, this assistant would be an assistanco to tho house by being able to inform them as to how the territory was boing worked by their men, and certainly would be the proper one to send to adjust los: As confidence of man for man grows more shaky each year and new schemes are heing worked all the time to de- fraud wholesale houses, it is evident something must ho done to enable us to take better care of ourselves financiall Why not train the traveling man to ¢ amount of this respousi- P Along the Line.

The Orange Men are Feeling Fine, But the Dried Fruit Men spond Greatly—A Change of ystem. Coal 1s Very Dear. SAN FRANCISCO, Jun. 22,—[Special to Tk Big.]<The coal problem is ser iously engaging the attention of pat- viotie Californians, for it is of t! greatost importance, No one w not visited the Pacific slops recontly can form any conception of the deyelop mentof manufacturing interest here, and the consumption of coal which is rendered necessary is enormous, Ono of our papers here has gone into figures and ascertained that the total for 1883 was 1,386,463 tons, and this was an in- crease of percent over the con- sumption of 1887, in spite of the coal famine. The average price paid was $10 a ton, and this includes, it must be remembered, an immense amount of rubbishy stuff not fit for domestic use or for manufacturing, but only for station- vy and locomotive boilors. This will give un inkling of the price paid for grates and stov and for [urnaces. At prosent coal is coming in very slowly from the Wellington colliery in Van Couver's island, where only the Finns and the Bolgians among the miners have gone to work., The south- ern s has been our good angel, for the company has purchased a cc mine in the Nanaimo region of V. Couver’s island, bought steambouts, ¢ has brought in some coal. Neverthe- less the solution lies as I have consist- ently stated, in bringing the coal from Utah and California, and there aro ru- mors of a line from the Webber coal mines of that territory to Los Angeles, When this is in steady operation there and then only will this state be really relieved. WIHAT I U. P. UP TO? There is no doubt that the Union Pa- cific has survey parties in our state and people who were aware of the fact have been wondering what that company was up to. From the pluce to which drafts of money have been sent it is clear that the contemplated line is to extend from from eastern Oregon to mento. Now the Union Pacific failed cam- in _its endeavors to hood- the United State and the haud of federal authority is about to be laid upon the shoulder of that de- faulting corporation. The goternment lien is not upon any branch lines, and it is the opinion of railroad experts that the Union Pacific is acting in ex- pectation of having to surrender its main line, and proposes to do precisoly what the Central Pucific has done. 1t a branch which starts out at Granger, in western Wyoming, and which runs to Pocatello. in_ southeast- ern Idaho, one branch going up due north to make connection with the Northern Pacific near Helena, Mont., and the other going into eastérn Or on through Boise City, Idaho. This line connects at Baker City, in Oregon, with the Oregon Railway & River Nav- igation company’s line to Umanllo, but it also turns south@atthe junction point, and some fifty miles of rail have been completed. This is the line which 1s to be extended to Sacramento. The Southera Pacific officials y do not care particularly about the im- pending competition. They that the I'remont, Elkhorn & Valley extension of the Chi Northwestern will be the eastern end of the new road to California, and say that it will connect either with Poca- tello or some point north of it. In this case there will be a through line to California from Chicago, and Omaha will be left out, the Union Pacific of to- day becoming & leased and purely local line like the Central Pacitic. But if the o road should be built from Salt Lake City to Los Angelos or San Ber- nardino then there would be a through line to southern California from Omaha, and this would carry nino-tenths of the orang nd raisins, and would avoid ory high grades. Obviously th new deal all round. but it that if the United Stutes seizes both the Central Pacific and the Union Pacific, the ace of trumps will be in the hands of the government and rates will be what they make. 5 GOV NOR ¥ CRMAN'S REPORT, The governor’s message is chiefly in- teresting from the stress he lays upon the injury to the state of large holdings in land. “He says that California con- tains eighty mitlion aci of land that is arable or can be made s0 in places by irrigation, in other places by dr ge. One-cighth of thisu p to the present time has been cultivated, and is in farms and orchards. Of these the total number is 36,000, being an average of 100, t00 muoh—300 acres per hold- ing. When we remember w a num- ber of fruit farms are only fifty acres in extent, it shows how large is the percentage of every big ranch. In fact, 10 per cont of thein are one thou- sand acres or mor Since public at- tention has been arawn to the enormous prices asked for land in Los Angelc and San Diego a number of real estato holders have come forward in the p pers offering small farms of fifty acre; for %0 an acre. But how can any man expeet immigration to come into Cal fornia to any considerable extent when land as fertile for vaising c 1ls can be had in Nebraska for 35 an acrve, 1t is with considerrble mortification that the Californian sees his state visited by eastern men and Baropean immigrants only to be neglected, and the men go on to Washington territory and Oregon and sottle there. CALIFORNIA FRUIT GROWERS, The Fruit Growers’ union of the state have been in convention, and they came in such numbers that the place of me ing would not contuin them, so th journed to the headquarters of the culturists in Platt hall, So gr the traffic in orangos surpassed branches of the green fruit business that it really was a convention of orange growers and shippers, and as it was re- ported that in spite of their pros- perity, there was bad feeling, wany persons went, and many others were myself. It was,® however, extremely dull and decorous, and though I was in- formed almost every spoech contained allusion to the eauses of wrath, no one spoke out in meeting, and the whole matter was fixed up in sidewalk confer- ences during the recess. The wholoe gist of the difference was that the agent appointed for Chicago was opposed to the auction sale business, and it was naturally thought that an agent who was enthusiastically in favor of it would be a better man, for the convention was unanimously of the opinion that this was the best method. There was some complaint also of the general manager, who, being a large grower, had, it was said, so managed shipmeuts as to favor JANUARY himsclf,at the expense of other growors. linen was washed pri- CONVENTION The orange L that their sic the Driod F for two dags be themselves of their views, tone of the dried fruit men was despond- ent to gloominess, rs, the members of tion, had to wait The general With the ex competition want of system that has prevailed hith- cities sold this year, for much less than emedied in the appointment of two ag: and another in who will have the fruit co future by tk one in New York best judgment Pears Soa Fair white hands.
