Those who Golden Jubilee approaches. intend to contribute to the fund for the public de- monstration or to decorate their homes and places of business have no time to lose in making prepara- tions. Whatever is to be done must be done at once in order to have it timely and opportune for the great occasion. The celebration is to be an important one for San Francisco. It will attract the attention of the whole country and the result will be used as a basis for es- timating the civic patriotism and public spirit of the people. We must m, the celebration something more than an ordinary street parade or disappoint popular expectation and feel the effect of the disap- pointment in a diminished attendance at the expo- sition of mines and mining. Individual taste and skill should co-operate with | the jubilee committee in the decoration and adorn- ment of the streets. Along the whole line of march the city should show itself in brilliant array. What plished during the convention of the | Christian Endeavorers should be surpassed and | i We have invited people from all parts of nion to come and fake part in the festival, and was accom the U it now behooves us to give them a reception suffi- ciently impr e to repay them for the journe even if the; ve come all the way across the con- | tinent. Although enough money has been contributed to the fund to assure a notable pageant for the parade, | it is not to add further contributions to the amount and help to make the display more gorgeous and more beautiful still. As the celebra- tion is to make a genuine popular holiday, it should have a liberal popular It of the ents in which all citizens can give help and rt, and it is to be hoped a sufficient number do so to prove to all comers that civic pride and vet too | support. is one s 1mon to all cl AN INCOMPLETE BILL. | artistic taste are of our people. T is said there will be introduced into Congress l a bill pro g that every person who copy- rights a book in this country shall, in addition to the two copies filed in the Library of the United States at W on, deposit also a copy in the State Library ch of the forty It is the « on of the advocates of the measure that the bill will be of great advantage to the li- braries of t ious States, and there can be no question o The bill Why give an advantage to other State institutions? impose upon authors a burden not imposed upon other recipients of copy and patent rights? The bill should be so amended as to provide that every man who takes out a patent for a farming nt should send one of the implements to State Agricultural College. Every man who copyrights a brand of fruit, oysters, canned meat, soup, boots and shoes, hats, gloves or tobacco should be compelled to send samples to every poorhouse in the Union. Every man who patents a medicine should have to give samples to all State Medical Colleges. All the holders of patents to mines should send specimen ores to all museums of mineralogy. All inventors of any kind of - me- chanical appliance should send working models to all mechanical schools conducted under State patronage. The proposed amendments would make the bill of advantage not only to State libraries, but to all schools, colleges, museums and poorhouses. It would place authors upon an equality with all other holders of patent and copy rights. It would con- fer benefits upon a wide class of citizens who do not read books. If we are going to give the States something for nothing, the more we give them the more logical will we be and the better will they like it. In all seriousness, the bill shows an utter dis- regard of the property of authors. Its advocate evidently believes that books come by giit of na- ture and not by labor and industry. We are as cager as any one to see all State li- braries advanced, but we believe that can be done in a mueh better way than the one proposed. In- stead of taking books from a poor author who can- not afford to give them, and whose books in all probability would be of little credit to the libraries, we suggest that each ‘member of Congress be re- quired to contribute a portion of his salary to each public library in his district, leaving the trustees to use the money in the purchase of such books as the library most nceds.

HE standard of value and the place proposed Tfor the silver currency, in the plan of the Cur- rency Commission, have been considered. The effect intended is to find use for the silver owned by the Government by retiring all paper currency of less than $10 denomination and filling its place with silver certificates of less than $10. There will be no contraction of the currency, because the greenbacks, national bank notes, etc., of small denominations re- tired will be reissued in denominations of $10 and over. The next point to be considered is the obligations of the Government which the treasury is compelled to redeem on demand and to reissue. The commis- sion proposes the gradual retirement of these de- mand obligations which now constitute “the endless chain” by which the gold reserve of the treasury is diawn out without reducing the volume of demand obligations used for that purpose. The demand notes of the Government, payable in gold on presentation and required by law to be im- mediately reissued, are the greenbacks and coin notes of 1890, amounting to $455,904,296. The commission proposes to create in the treasury a division of issue and redemption, separate from the ordinary fiscal functions of that department. To this division the gold reserve held against the demand ob- ligations will be transferred, and they will be handled, redeemed, issued or canceled in this division. The gold reserve is to be maintained from the rev- enues when they are adequate, otherwise by the sale of short time bonds. When the notes are redeemed in gold they are to be canceled up to $50,000,000, and thereafter five years the amount canceled shall only equal the increase in bank notes, thereby avoiding contraction of the currency. Aditer five years the notes redeemed are to be canceled at the rate per annum of 20 per cent of the whole amount of notes then outstanding. At the end of ten years the legal tender quality of the notes still outstanding is to cease. No note once paid in gold is to reissue except in exchange for gold, provided that if uncanceled notes accumulate unduly in this division of issue and re- demption the Secretary may use them in the pur- chase of United States bonds for the benefit of that division, such bonds to be held and sold when nece: sary for the replenishment of the redemption fund. It will be seen that this plan intends to retire the unfunded Government debt due on demand, and to as far as possible do this without funding it in the form of an interest-bearing debt. When the burden of these demand obligations is lifted from the treasury there may be expected less difficulty in maintaining the stable standard of value and there may be even on Government account, if demanded by the needs of business, because parity may be easier maintained. . WORDS TO THE WISE. Trcccm]y elected, with Joseph Britton as presi- dent and J. Richard Freud as secretary, fore- shadows the adoption of the charter prepared by the Citizens’ Committee of One Hundred. Both these gentlemen took an active interest in formulating the instrument referred to, and it is presumed that their influence in their new situations will be sufficient to secure its indorsement substantially as it passed the committee. No one will complain of this, for it is quite clear that in forcing that charter they are fol- lcwing out the logic of the late charter campaign. There is a strong presumption that a majority of the people who participated in the election held on De- cember 27 favored the instrument prepared by the Citizens’ Committee. At all events that is the sense of the result. If the 13,000 and odd persons who voted for the successful Board of Freeholders did not f: vor that charter a very lightsview of thefr sanity must be accepted. But, notwithstanding this logic, Mr. Britton, Mr. Freud and the Freecholders should remember that ty HE organization of the Board of Freeholders { only about one-third of the voting population of this city went to the polls on the occasion of the late election. Over 50,000 men either did not understand the questions at issue or did not take sufficient inter- est in a charter to vote. will vote in November. Therefore, according to our notion, the board should carcfully consider a new verdict rendered amid the indifference of the holi- days, but from broad considerations of public utility. The city is wofully in need of a new charter. His- tory shows that no instrument can be adopted which contains either an autocratic Mayor or that engender political antagonisms. The first char- ter submitted to the people of San Francisco defeated because it proposed the arblerary removal of the cemeteries; the second because it reduced official salaries; the third and fourth because they introduced innovations and an autocratic Mayor. If the Board of Freeholders persists in providing machinery for purchasing public utilities, forfeiting street railway franchises, enforcing civil service re- form or investing the Mayor with extraordinary powers, it will simply sow dragons’ teeth, which will develop into armed men to defeat its charter. If these propositions are to be placed before the people at all they should be submitted in the form of alter- nate sections. That method is perfectly practicable as to all of them, except possibly that which in the citizens’ charter confers autocratic powers upon the Mayor. But experience shows that the people do not favor political bosses. This being granted, how can any sensible person contend that they will adopt a charter which provides for a boss with powers far exceeding those enjoyed by any political potentate we have ever known? If the Freeholders desire to see their charter adopted they will modify the citizens’ draft so as to avoid antagonisms. Mr. Britton has already pre- sided at the funeral of two charters. We hope he will be wise enough to change his system this time and give us an organic law which will stand some chance of being adopted. innovations was Among the Klondike miners who laugh at stories of starvation are those having the discretion to get away before they became hungry. To the miners who remain behind on short rations, or to the others lying dead along the trails over which they tried vainly to escape, there has been no feature of the situation suggestive of hilarity. 3 Senorita Cisneros appears to be much concerned about the starving Cubans. The very fact that she would permit a yellow journal to drag her into no- tice again seems to point to this conclusion. How- ever, she will never be restored to public favor un- less she offer herself to the cause in the form of sand- wiches. An American circus has captured London.

EARS of a dry season have gone glimmering l: from ali parts of California. There is now cvery prospect that showers will be forth- coming sufficient for the needs of all kinds of rural industry and in all localities. It is true the danger is not past, for we may yet lack the spring rains. That, however, is another story. For the present everything looks satisfactory. The notable feature of the season is the fall of snow in the southern portion of the State. Here is an- other striking lesson for Eastern people in the va- rieties of climate in California. Snow covers the ranges of hills and mountains that girdle San Diego, | and those that surround the blooming valleys back of Los Angeles, while those around San Francisco are free from any suggestion of winter. It is gratifying to learn by the reports from the southern counties that no damage is expected to re- sult to orange or other trees from the snow that has fallen. The people seem, in fact, to have been made jubilant rather than depressed by the appearance of snowflakes among their hills and even among their flower gardens. It is to them truly a “beautiful snow,” and they count it among the attractions of the season. Dispatches from San Diego announce that Lyons Peak, twenty miles from the coast, is covered with snow, but the lemon and orange trees at the base of it have not been touched by frost. At Riverside the | orange trees were white with snow when the people rose in the morning, but no damage was found when the snow was cleared away by a heavy rain that fol- lowed. At Visalia snow was noted on the foothills where it has not been known to fall for twenty years, but here again the reports announce the cheering news that no damage has been done. In every locality the fall of rain or snow has been propitious to the hopes of the husbandmen. Both the grain growers and the orchardists rejoice in it. | It is stated that in some localities the grain crops | were suffering from a lack of moisture. To the own- ers of these cropsthe coming of the rain and the snow were genuine blessings. They have changed a fear of bzd harvests into an assurance of good ones. It seems, in fact, that everything is working for | the good of California this year, and we can well be- | | lieve the report from San Diego that Eastern visit- | ors to that city as they stood amid summer flowers 1 | and looked upon the snowy hills around them were | amazed at the striking proof before their eyes of the truth of the stories they had never believed of the wonderful climate of Californi. ? INDUSTRY. | |THE IRON @AND STEEL EPORTS from the East are to the effect that | R while the year 1897 was one of the most event- | | ful ever known in the iron and steel trade of the United States, the present year is likely to sur- pass it in all respects. The outlook is promising for | a record breaking trade, and the chances are much | | of it will be made up of exports to foreign countries. The export of iron and steel was in fact one of the | notabje features of the trade of last ye theré s hardly a country of importance on the face of thf earth that did not receive more or less iron | or stpel from the United States during the last twelve modths. In the aggregate these shipments were very large, and according to the estimates of experts at Pittsburg the total amount for the year was not less than 500,000 tons. However large our foreign trade may be during the present year, it is still to the home market that our producers of iron and steel look for the | greater portion of their orders. The revival of this | business in the industry during the last six months | has been something remarkable, and the movement is still going forward. It is calculated by leading authorities in the trad at the consumption of iron during the year in this country will be about 14,000,- 000 tons. A gratifying feature of the reports of the industry is the showing made of the manufacture of tinplate. Our imports of this material for the decade ending | 18c2 averaged 275.000 t It is said | This was re- , and was still rther reduced during 1307, besides which exports of tinplates are being made, which during 1808 are ikely to be of considerable magnitude, sufficient, at all events, to offset any imports that may be made. Rarely in any line of industry has the advantage of protection been so strikingly shown as in the de- velopment of the wifacture of rinplate in this country as revealed in the statistics given. Six years ago we were importing large quantities of that ma- terial, and notwithstanding the intervening years of Democratic free trade and depression, the home manufacture has increased to such an extent that we can expect to export tinplate Instead of im- porting it. It is an established principle in commercial circles that the condition of the iron trade serves as a bar- ometer of the total trade of the country. Iron is the basis of nearly all modern industry. It supplies the material for the construction of almost everything | we use, from railroads to bootjacks. When there is | a large demand for iron it is a sure thing there is a | large demand for articles made from it. The cheer- | ing reports from the iron and steel industry are ‘ therefore doubly gratifying inasmuch as they carry | with them a promise of prosperity for all. i e 3 s per annum. duced to 119,000 tons for the year 18 ma now, There is a rumor that Uncle Sam has so little pow- der on hand that if all his warships were to be en- gaged in a ten-hour battle the remaining supply would not last more than thirty minutes. There is no immediate occasion for distress. In the first { place the probability of such a battle is more than re- mote. Samuel’s warships will not be at any one sta- | tion when an engagement shall occur. Those hap- pening to be there will not stay ten hours, for they will lick, be licked or at the bottom of the sea in rauch less time. e Lo Weyler's voice is still loud for war.
