Yachting seems likely to look up this season on San Francisco Bay, and as yacht clubs are nurserics of nautjcal spirit the emporium of the Pacific should have lots of them, The dispute over water rates is less important than the controversy over the purity of the water, and the latter question . should be settled in such a way that it will never arise again, No sooner are we happily rid of the Gould-Castellane wedding than it is an- nounced that Miss Pullman is to marry Count Isenberg Birstein and the whole twaddle of trousseau and pedigree threat- ens to begin again. Our Chinese Vice-Consul, just back from Mexico, thinks there is a good opening for his people in that country. It would be a good opening for them to get through into the United States, and that's what they will mostly use it for. As some of our Eastern exchanges are rejoicing over the arrival early in the month, of Florida tomatoes at 25 cents a pound, there would seem to be profit in tomato culture for Californians who live in the thermal belt, where vegetables ripen early. The Connecticut legislator who is trying to procure the enactment of a law requir- ing every child to be named within three days after birth ought to provide a public official to do the naming, for the general run of parents would never come anywhere near agreeing on a name in that time, | portation | people bave aroused ¢ City to the San Joaquin fight will force the enemies of progress in | Calife 2 to come out in the open.

This means that we must ad the in or in order to prepare a the advance of the metropolis. W furthermore induce to make their homes with us men of capital and enerzy who up the great industries by which half million of population is to be provided with the means of earning a living. To effect these things the Half-million | Club should co-operate with the various conn of the State to attract migra- tion to the rural communit The advan- tages of the climate from a business stand- point, as well as from that of health or pleasure, should be made known. The profits to be derived from farming and fruit-zrowing shonld be revealed to the people of the blizzard States. Special stress should be laid upon the mining in- dustry, which, at this time, ought to be particularly attractive to capital and which can afford employment to a large number of men whose trade would be beneficial to And in addition there should be ible advertising given to dvantages in the way of water-power, fuel and raw material in yarious localities for the development of manufacturing industries in the State. The work done in this way for the State at large would advance the City and ma- terially help every industry within it. The growth of the State would form a basis | on which to build the structure of our commercial and manufacturing prosperity To increase our shipping, extend our rail- roads and reach out in this way for the commerce of the ocean and the trade of the Pacific S8lope, would be necessary and natural results of the upbuilding of the interior, and as each of these would in turn attract men and capital, they also would add to the population of the City. Acting on these broad lines, therefore, and giving assistance to every enterprise in the State, the Half-million Club would do a notable work for California in the next five years. The promoters of the club are, fortunately, men to whom we can look for such far-reaching work as this. They have started right on their en- terprise and with the popular support they deserve, will accomplish their task and be prepared at the beginning of 1901 to call themselves the Million Claub. BEADY-ED}.‘. HOUSES. The CaLv recently suggested that Cali- fornia lumber might be profitably workea up in the construction of ready-made hounses, only needing to be put together, for shipment to the South African mining regions, and perhaps other countries bor- dering on the Pacific and Indian oceans, Word now comes from Washington that one of our Consuls in Italy has discovered a fine market for such houses in parts of that country. The recent earthquakes in Sicily and Catalonia have destroyed many buildings. It is belieyed that these Ameri- can structures, light and well braced, would stand the shocks better than any other kind of dwellings. A member of the Royal Earthquake Commission has in- terested himself in the subject. If Eastern manufacturers can find an opening for such a trade in Italy why can- not Californians do likewise around our Railroed. This ‘ : | is even now the largest leather manu- facturing town of the Pacific Coast, and | the qua | East for manufacture. modern is taking her people be- yond the paper-house area.

It is= Fr-ton mendation would have been accepted and an appropriation made two or three years ago, but for the opposition of the Oregon and Washington delegations, who wanted to get the works for their own section of the coast. The present arsenal and ord- nance works at Benicia already form the us for the proposed foundry, and Ty consideration of situation, commu- nications, coal supply, etc., points to that place as the proper location for the plant. An appropriation for that purpose would soon make Benicia hum with industrial life. But that wonld be onl the prosperi y one feature of v that shonld follow. Ben ity of its output is first class. Yet California last year imported 6,000,000 pounds of leather and 100,000 cases of boots and shoes. Benicia should have worked up her own leather instead of shippingit The largest eagricnltural implement works in the State are also located at Beni- cia. y are now working only about a two-thirds force, while we are annually importing hundreds of thousands of dol- lars’ worth of such goods. Such f: indicate one direction which industrial reform should take.- ‘When Government and private manu- factures begin to gather population at Benicia the new-comers will find one ad- vantage which every intelligent head of a family will appreciate: the educational facilities of the town, both pub and private, are of the first order, and will only need a material expansion to meet the needs of an increased population. This, combined with the healthful climate and beautiful location, will be a valuable inducement to work and home seekers. A POSTAL LABOR EXCHANGE. According to one of our consnlar reports the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg has a very effective system of labor exchange. The postal department receives, registers and transmits applications from wage- payers and wage-earners, and posts them in railway stations, hotels and other pub- lic places. Applicants are notified of re- plies by postal cards. During the last two years from 75 to 90 per cent of such appli- cations have fulfilled their purpose. Luxembourg is a small State, and some things might work very well there that would not answer in California or other parts of the United States. We have also extensive private employment agencies which fill a large demand. Yet it is notice- able every year, especially during our long drawn out harvest season, that there is often a failure to bring work and workers together. Men and boys who are willing to work may be idling in San Francisco and other towns while farmers in various sections of the State are at their wiis’ ends to secure labor to get in their crops. The | thousend subs ] | | i | ent of | p | | | | | ianovstion. Being published on the Paeifie Coust, in the State of Californiz and I the city of San Franeisen, the Cazz has begun publish- ing the mews of San Franeiseo, of Californis and of the Pacific Coast. To add to its daring, the Carr has put this news prominently upon its first pege. If anyihing more were needed to complete its revolutionary practices, we may at it puts just as large headingsom its iocal news as it does on the Esstern and Euro- | pean news. TLis new departnre of the CarL bas filled the other dailies with & mixture of disgust and alarm. Disgust—because it is contrary to the canons of San Franciseo’s daily journalism.

The talk was general, but every now and then Morphy would look solemnly at a picture or piece of tableware and say soitly to himself ‘check,’ as though busy in the middle of all the talk, thinking out a chess problem. Always perfectly dressed and with the man- ners of the ‘old school’ Morphy was still the mester of the chess board. If in these days of cable matches he were still alive I faney our English cousins would give even heartier cheers than they did for the American club.”’ “I sce that Cecil Rhodes, the South African Premier, is coming in for considerable notice of late,” said Arthur Humisand in the Baldwin cafe last night. “I met Rhodes in Cape Town & year ago last January, just after he had cabled to the Premier of Victoria, Australia, and the Premier of New South Wales offering to help them, if they would accept, in their financial crisis. I was looking after the inter- ests of & proposed prospecting party, but ihe people Liad very little money,and were, in fact, emigrants from Australia just before the Cool- gardie and Wyalong gold rushes assumed such strong proportions. I then asked Mr. Rhodes what he would advise, and shall never forget his reply. ‘If they are poor, the sooner they leave South Africa the better for them. Civili- zation is the pauper’s home,’ said he. When telking earnestly, Rhodes' face sets itself into strong lines and his manner is most impres- sive. Asaresult my party went back to Aus- 2 New Orleans McCormick, phy existing agencies do not seem toaltogether fill the bill, Of course the Government would have to take in hand any such scheme as the Luxembourg system, but the Government seldom takes the initiative in such mat- ters. Private effort has to first work up a sentiment and suggest action. We have many bright and energetic persons inter- ested in improving the relations between work and workers. Would it not be worth while for some of them to take up this question, study its possibilities, and work out of it some practical plan for submis- sion to Government? The new era in California is going to make employment, and it wiM also attract laborers. Anything that will help to bring them together will be a public benefit.

BY JANET M'DONALD. Possibly a knowledge of the extent of ob- taining trade on the commission basis is not as widespread as it would seem to be, consid- ering the number of people who engege in it, Upon fnvestigation it is discovered that “com- mission brokers” and ““purchasing agents” are not the only classes indulging their propensi- ties in this direction for “what there is in it.” Madam, my lady, takes a friend where she may obtain a good bargain in gloves, laces, hosiery, dry goods, groceries, furniture—any- thing under the sun thata woman may want (and that includes most things on this mun- dane sphere), shops in the usual manner, call- ing down from the shelves all sorts of bar- gains, admiring their beauty and utility, expatinting on the rare opportunity, declaring it such a bargain, and occasionaily making a small purchase herself, After having exhausted her enterprise or her esives fair remuneration fo Bas brought them.

Prince Achille Napoleon Murat, who recently commiited suicide at Odessa, was well known in Philadelphia. He was born in Bordentown, N.J., where his mother lived. After the fall of the empire Mme. Murat was reduced to such straits that she taught school. Some of her pupils were Philadeiphians, who are still liy- ing. Mme. Murat died in France in 1879.
