The wine grape growers and winemakers of California have had a hard| struggle in the past, and it seems clear that unless | 4 in some way co-operate the futurc will uch more profitable. ulty that confronts the wine industry is the lack of a sufficient home market for the output of which the State is capable. The | Anerican people have not yet reached that degree of living which makes the use of wine and oil com- mon to all classes' except the very poor. Whilé in} e table winés than those of any European coun- v, very few of them do. As a consequence the de- and for wine is by no means as great as it will be | when the advantage of wine at dinner is better under- stood. «To make the campaign of education for the intro- duction of wine using in this country by the general s of people, and to convince those who now use t ‘California wine is better and purer than the f which is imported, will require a long period of time and the expenditure of a good deal of energy and money. It will be better certainly for nakers to co-operate while this struggle for the upbuilding of the home market is going on than for them to attempt it separately. he decision whether the corporation is to be con- tinued has been postponed for six months. It is to be hoped before that time passes the benefits of co- operation will have been abundantly manifest. The outlook, at any rate, seems to be promising. If some means cotild e foand fo‘put an’‘end’to the differences betwgen the winemakers and the wine dealers there | would' be, something like an assurance of profitable | business all round. our wir A Milpitas cons o deliberately killed an in- offensive young man, the victim being unarmed and hardly more ‘than a boy, has been found guilty of manslaughter and recommended to the mercy of the court.

HERE are many evidences of reasonable con- The demand that Spain give up the Philippines has been hastily taken as expressive of our intention to hold them. This is not so at all. Relinquishment of her sovereignty over those dis- tant islands, and committing it to us, is no evidence of President McKinley's intention to hold them. Nor do the late elections furnish any evidence of the people’s desire to retain them. .In California the Philippine question did net affect a single vote. Both arties had declared for the policy of expansion, but affected by it. In New York the election of Roosevelt and of a Republican Legislature was brought about by causes t had no relation to a craze for tropical colonies. | Aiter his victory Colonel Roosevelt said: “I shall | try to administer the office of Governor in the inter- | by the independents and Democrats, who have them- selves put the welfare of the State first, declining to follow those of their leaders who, in this crisis, either ranged themselves outright on the side of the forces of dishonesty, or else supported ‘them in effect’s by standing aside from the real contest.” An analysis of the causes that led to the result in other States will show a like situation. Therefore the acquisition of tropical colonies is not decided on by the people and is an open question, to be yet settled after ample debate. The abandonment to us of her sovereignty in the Philippines by Spain does not mean our retention of We can with perfect propriety secure a coal- the people, to whom it rightfully belongs. We may complete negotiations relating to the Philippine debt and to all other matters, acting therein as the trus- their name, but all this is very different from incum- bering ourselves with possessions that mean cost and trouble. It is a subject for dispassionate considera- tion, and is not to be concluded by a pseudo patriot- | ism that is expressed by yelling. All the pretended fervor about “nailing the flag” is blue bosh and fus- | tian. The American army officers and soldiers who have sweltered and sickened on that rotten tropical soil, under a vertical sun, are not. enamosed- of the nd or the people. A very large majority of the let- ters written home by soldiers oppose the holding of | a tropical country, where their experience proves that whité men cannot live and thrive. Up to this time the people haye had misinformation the shape of half the facts. The two thousand sailors and marines in Dewey’s fleet have been truth- | fully reported as enjoying good health. But they have been on shipboard. They have drunk only distilled water. They have slept in wholésome quarters. Their rations have been under careful ‘inspection. They could not get ashore to yield to the temptations | which undermine a man’s strength. Merchant sailors in the tropics understand it perfectly. They know: ay on deck they are safe, and that there is every risk on shore. The health reports from Dewey’s fleet led: our peo- ple to conclude that the climate was as wholesome as the Sierra foothills or the Catskill Mountains. The experience of our troops on shore at Cavite and Man- ila has undeceived them. As a result there has arisen the pitiful clamor to have the boys sent home, which has been caused by their letters truthfully describing the unchangeable physical conditions. In these reve- lations we also find the difference between the senti- ments of army and navy officers on the subject. The officers live on their ships, equipped with water distilleries, artificial ice machines, ventilating electric fans and other comforts and sanitary necessities, which ‘are not possible of uise in the army. The army officer’s judgment as-to physical conditions is the better, for he must endure them unmitigated by ar- tificial means. He meets, in other words, the un- changeable conditions to which our garrisons must be subjected, and which forever forbid any attempt tc domesticate men and families of our race, in com- merce, manufactures or agriculture, in those lands and latitudes. As we cannot domesticate our race there, we cannot plant our institutions, which are racial purely, and cannot be adapted to a tropical people by any process of education nor any training, 10 matter how prolonged it may be. THE MASSACHUSETTS SENATORS OMMENTING upon the demands of the im- C perialists for the annexation of the Philippines and the adoption of a policy of unlimited colonial expansion, Senator Hoar said in a recent speech at Worcester: “In my opinion we are to-day in a great danger—a danger greater than any we have encountered since the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth. The danger is that we are to be transformed from a | republic founded on the Declaration of Independence and guided by the counsels of Washington into a vulgar commonplace empire founded ‘upon-physical force.” Y Senator Hoar’s colleague . from Massachusetts, Senator Lodge, sees another danger confronting us— a danger that our commerce in the East may: be de- stroyed. In an address at the banquet of the Boston Boot and Shoe Club on Thursday evening he said: “We want no commerce at the cannon’s mouth, but we do want it understood that wherever.an American is engaged in business there he is to be protected, and that there is '3 navy of the United States big enough to guard him wherever he sees fit to go. Therefore, I say we need a large navy as a protection to commerce on the sea as well'as on the land. The question that confronts us is a larger one than what we shall do with the.Philippines. They v we are not an Eastern power unless we hold those islands. We are to-day the greatest power in the Pacific Ocean. We hold one entire side of that| vcean except the outlet which England has to China. We hold the halfway.house in Honolulu, where all ships must stop when the Nicaragua canal is built, as it will be. Are we going to allow the ports of the East to be closed to us and open to Russia, France and Germany alone? Or are we going to stand up and say with England and Japan the ports of China- must be closed to all or they must be open to all?” r'he addresses of the two Senators taken together make a comprehensive statement of the issue that confronts us in the Orient and the dangers that re- sult from it. On the one side there is the possibility that a foolish jingoism may lead us to take a position in the Philippines that will involve us in every con- flict in that section of the world, and on the other there is a possibility that our commercial interests may suffer from European aggression. The two addresses are worth studying because so many efforts have been made of late to convince the public that the Massachusetts Senators disagree with one another and that a factional split in the Repub- lican party is likely to take place over the Eastern question. It will be seen from the statements quoted lprc;;eri’t atpect of the affair, they are unfit for any our commerce by peaceful means, nor does Senator Lodge believe that we must annex the Philippines in order to e;pénd it. ’rhere is' a broad platform of | policy on which both can stand. Let us build up our merchant marine and strengthen our navy and we can then hold our own in the Orient and everywhere else | without taking upon outselves the. burden of govern- ing the savage inhabitants of islands too pestilential for white men to inhabit WHERE DISGRACE BELONGS. HREE boys are in San Quentin for an offense Tso trivial as to have mérited nothing more than a reprimand. They have not committed any crime, and yet officials induced the lads to plead guilty to the charge of horse-stealing, The only pur- pose seems to have been to permit a Sheriff to acquire 2 few paltry fees. To do this he was willing to have the trio branded as felons. They have been degraded te stripes;” the'real disgrace belongs upon the Sheriff and the officials who connived with him in the com- mission of this outrage. Let Sheriff Bellew and District Attorney Dorn stand up and explain their connection with this scan- dal. If they cannot do so, and wholly change the | place of trust. . The penitentiary is for the reform of evil-doers and the protection of society. Its purpose is in no measure to afford an opportunity to avarice to line pockets with fees. Even had the boys been guilty, why were they taken one by one to prison instead of alto- gether? Three trips meant more money ta the Sheriff. It has been long since so cold-blooded an act has been charged against ~anybody holding authority. The forfeiture of his position would be a mild penalty | to visit upon each shown to be a participant in the cruel and unprecedented procedure. At least they cannot deny the press and public the privilege of making a few remarks about them. e . ARTIFICIAL LIGHT. l tion of the Mutual Electric Light Company for a writ of mandaté compelling the Board of Super- visors to award it a contract for which it claims to have been the lowest bidder, Superior Judge Seawell has laid down some law which is at once hopeful and interesting. Indeed, it throws more light upon the illuminating situation in this city than any recent declaration of the courts, and if it shall finally become the law of the suit brought by the Mutual company it will be worth many thousands of dollars annually to the people and taxpayers of the municipality. The lighting situation in San.Francisco has long been an anomaly among “problems.” The constitu- tion provides that in cities where there are no public works owned and controlled by the people for sup- plying the same with artificial light, any person or company may lay pipes-or conduits, under the direc- tion of the Superintendent of Streets and in accord- ance with such regulations as the authorities may prescribe,’and engage in the business without other franchise ‘or privilege. This. law was made for lhef‘ purpose of fntroducing competition into the manu- | facture and sale of gas and electricity. It is a plain | case of granting a franchise: to whomsoever may choose to invest his capital in the worthy business of reducing the cost of ar‘ificial light. The provision has been annulled in this city, how- ever, by the simple expedient of placing an embargo on electric light poles. ‘The Supervisors have adopted a resolution declaring that telegraph poles are N overruling a demurrer interposed to the applica- a nuisance and giving the owners of those that are up a few years in which to remove them. Naturally, when a competing electric company appears and asks for the privilege of erecting poles the board answers that, having or- dered those already up to be taken down, it cannot perpétuate the nuisance by allowing it to be extended. The practical result is to create a monopoly in elec- tric lighting, since no corporation can lay an under- ground system and compete. with an overhead system, Judge Seawell has simplified this remarkable situ- ation by declaring” that the constitution, which says in terms that one class of citizens shall not be granted privileges or immunities which may not be enjoyed by other classes, cannot be nullified in this manner. If the San Francisco Gas and Electric Company is to be allowed to maintain poles, he says, the law com- pels the Supervisors to grant the same permission to the Mutual company. If this is done of course the lighting monopoly will go down with a run, for the latter corporation has offered to do the city’s work for $40,000 less a year and grant consumers a 25 per cent reduction on their bills in consideration of the privilege of maintaining poles. It is fervently to be hoped that the principles Judge Seawell has announced will become the-law of the ‘municipality. Artificial light is a necessity, and it should be cheapened as much .as possible. Most other public; utilities ““are luxuries, but the lives, health, property and personal safety of the people de- pend upon the city being thoroughly lighted. Light is civilization, darkness is barbarism. The law on grounds of 'public policy alone ought to maintain competition in the manufacture and sale of so great a necessity as electricity is coming to be. An evening paper charges that one of the Police Judges refuses to try “drunks.” It is indeed pitiful that for a mere $4000 yearly high-toned jurists must be brought into contact with blear-eyed citizens of unpleasant aspect.’ Perhaps it would be wise to per- niit the balking member of the bench to try his dis- agrlcc_able_cases over a long-distance telephone. Cuban soldiers would accept pay from the United States treasury. ; By all means let them have it. Then let Uncle ‘Sam buy every Cuban baby a rattle and a gum ring. We' went into this business for:the pur- pose of making the Cubans happy, and our aim is still to please. A grim old soldier like General Young seems to have -entirely escaped the hysterics while in Cuba. In fact, the Geperal entertains a notion that war ‘is characterized by: hardships, and to have run u; against them before. M M) —_— For General Greely to say that the volunteér,varmy has been a good deal of a failure was neither neces- sary nor gracious. In all likelihood if he did say it he had been taking a dose of quinine out of Chaplain McIntyre’s bottle. While contemplating the erection of a temporary City and County. Hospital it is well to remember that the rotten’ old shack now partly serving the purpose was erected. to be temporary. There may yet-be a chance to annex a few Spanish ships to the navy without depending upon the badly battered ones in Cuban waters. 2 Nothing more.is heard of Weyler.

It appears that he was sauntering leisurely along the colored quarter in Chicago one night after his turn at one of the theaters. As he was passing a dance hall his at- tention was attracted by a party of his brethren, consisting of three females and as many males, who came tumbling down the steps of the terpsichorean resort, the men brandishing razors of massive pro- portions, the feminine members of the brunette contingent being busily engaged in the laudable occupation of pulling out each other’s hair. The fight was rudely interrupted, however, by an officer of Irish persuasion, who swooped down upon the six disturbers and also upon Hogan, who was intently watching proceedings, and gathered them all in. “The next morning they were brought into court to answer the charges and Hogan was the sorriest ‘coon’ of all. He asked for a private talk with the Judge and it was granted him.
