NCE more the Southern Pacific Railroad has O succeeded in preventing the appointment of a representative of the Pacific Coast to the Interstate Commerce Commission. To the vacancy occasioned by the resignation of Commissioner Cal- houn the President has appointed Joseph Fifer of Tllinois, and all efforts made in the three States of | Washington, Oregon and California to procure the selection of W. R. Wheeler have failed. From the time of the creation of the commission the Southern Pacific Company has opposed the ap- pointment of a man from this coast to a place upon it, and the opposition has been continuously successful, notwithstanding it was the intention of the framers of the act creating the commission that among its members there should always be a representative of the interests of this section of the Union. Commercially and industrially the States of the Union are divided into five great groups, each group being marked by certain characteristics which distin- guish it from the others. The commercial and trans- portation interests of no two of these groups are alike, nor are the problems which coniront business men alike in any two of them. It was the design of Congress in establishing the Interstate Commerce Commission to give each of these divisions of the ¢ an equal power in the commission, and ac- the act provides for five Commissioners. Each of the other groups of States has always had ative Commissioner. The Pacific Coast never had one. The Southern Pacific, for reasons cnown to its bosses, has antagonized every effort to obt such a representative, and it is because of that antagonism this section of the Union has no voice in determining transportation questions which affect its fare. In tim 1st the defeat of Pacific Coast aspirants for a Cor hip has occasioned but little com- ment. As we never had a Commissioner, a large number of our people re considered it a part of the ural order of t! is year the case is different.

It was natural, therefore, that the minister launched the happy couple on the sea of matrimony he should tie for them a good, old-fashioned sailor’s knot Dewey when If the great naval battles of our war with Spain accomplished nothing more they have furnished several of our distinguished fighters with the oppor- tunity of contributing to an interesting controversy. Even Admiral Dewey is now flinging inkpots. The Rev. Andrew Wood of Oakland has secured a divorce from Mrs. Wood. He told the court that on one memorable Thanksgiving day, having asked his wife for turkey, she gave him the laugh. He ought to be thankful she didn’t give him the neck. The sailor who hanged himself the other day be- cause he was refused a drink probably took too liter- ally the old saying that a man who wants a drink badly has his tongue hanging out. Without awaiting the medical reports it would seem safe to say that the death recently of Jacob Bright, brother of the famous John Bright, was due undoubt- edly to Bright's disease. The records of the Morgue have received another name to the long, tragic roll of suicides who made ath their hazard in local gambling. | On Janua the | structors and five a | sistant naval ¢ | wo HERE is no corps in the navy that has under- one so complete a transformation in the past val constructors. en 0 s that of the na twen 1ere were naval con- naval constructors, of are retired and three still At the present time there sixt istant which seven have died, si remain in active service. ne naval constructors and eighteen as- tructors, making a total of thirty- cers in immediate charge of the construction and repairs of ships. are twen nine off The constructors of twenty years ago were, in the Jarge majority, men of superior practical ability, who liad served a long apprenticeship in the shipyard and rked their way up., They were rather deficient in | the scientific branches, according to the present stan- lard of requirements of agaval constructor, but that they did their work well is shown by the records of the Hartford, Kearsage and many other ships of the | old navy. As graduates from the shipyard they were in thorough sympathy with the workmen over whom they had charge, knew how to handle large gangs | and get the best results without needless friction, and | it is only fair to state that the abuses in the navy-yards | of those days were due to the acts of higher officials, | to which the constructors had to consent or quit the | service. | Since 1875 no civilian appointments have been made in that corps, and all its new members are graduates from the Naval Academy. These are all highly edu- | cated men, graduated after a four years’ course at | the academy, supplemented by a couple of years at foreign institutions of learning, and then commis- sioned as assistant nawal constructors. They are, how- | ever, totally deficient in the practical part of their 'pmlession. in which their training begins when placed | in charge of men and work. The system is entirely | different from that of other countries, or, for that | matter, from the practice in private establishments, where practical and theoretical knowledge in similar 1 positions are absolutely requisite to the success of the { work, and it would seem as if our Navy Department | has gone from one extreme to another. In order to qualify for command of a vessel-of-war the officer has to pass through successive grades and examinations, and it takes at least thirty years’ ex- perience to become competent to command a vessel like the Texas. On the other hand, the same ship was built by one of the Annapolis assistant naval con- structors who had less than one year’s experience in icharge of work, and the record of this “hoodoo™ | ship, culminating at Santiago with bursting her decks through the concussion of her own guns, disproves the wisdom of having inexperienced men to under- | take such important work as ship-building. L Of the one hundred and seventeen vessels of the new navy, built or in course of construction, one hun- | dred and six are from plans of the late Chief Con- | structor T. D. Wilson and Philip Hichborn, present | chief of the Bureau of Construction. Both of these | officers were practical shipwrights, and their handi- craft compares favorably with that of other navies. | Four vessels, the Indiana class and the Bancroft, are credited to the Annapolis constructors; five are from foreign designs, and two others, the Katahdin | and Dolphin, by outsiders. The old shipwright con- structors appear to have done pretty well, and the new members of the corps are likely to be as efficient after a long, tedious and costly apprenticeship. Just now all is not so satisfactory as it should be, for there are complaints from workmen at Mare Isl- and of too much militarism in connection with the work. It is not to the liking of California ship- | wrights and other mechanics to be treated as if they were enlisted men, but this condition, while it is not that the present naval constructor is tyrannical, and the Navy Department has been asked to have him trandferred. Similar complaints have been made twice since 1891, and it is not likely that any more attention will be paid to this protest against an un- popular officer than has been vouchsafed the griev- ance of a 16 per cent reduction in the shipwright's pay within the past year. from 33 to 50 per cent to the officers’ salaries, the mechanics and laborers are slow to comprehend why they should receive less pay at Mare Island than is current in San Francisco. There is a marked change in the condition and treatment of workmen at the navy-yards, which are gradually becoming similar to those of Europe. regulations such as prevail on board vessels-of-war, and the officers are confidently looking forward to | the establishment of an enlisted force, clerks, me- chanics and laborers, such as sts in the German From a military view it may be considered quite proper to have the working force domiciled in barracks, going to and from their work to the | music of drum and fife and the boatswain's whistle to time the riveters and calkers. Things seem to be drifting that way. ————— Latest reports from the South Af sess one gratifying characteristic—they lly indefinite.

Such opposition, however, is not well ded, as there is nothing in the California mov |m that will ast antagonize or impair any | aid the National Government may be willing to grant. | On the contrary, whatever is undertaken at home will have the effect of inclining Congress to be more | put tion shoul prompt in providing aid. The attitude of the majority at least of the | promoters of the State movement was well ex- ‘prcswd by President Thomas in discussing the }sn}»icct on Thursday at the meeting of the | committee engaged in making preparations for the convention. He is reported to have said there were points in the National Irrigation Association’s an upon which the advocates of the State plan could He believed that all were agreed that it was advisable to get from the Government all that the Government would give, but he reiterated that the Government has no ownership of the water in a stream, nor does it own the bed of the stream, and that all its right, constitutionally, in the matter is to regulate navigation between States and with foreign countries; also that if the Government were to con- struct storage reservoirs for the purpose of maintain- ing the levels of rivers there could be no help from irrigators from that source. Whatever differences of opinion may exist at this tinie, it is quite probable that a pian of action may be devised by the convention to which all fair-minded men will agree, and for the accomplishment of which all may cordially work. The importance of the en- terprise can hardly be overrated, and it is highly de- sirable that steps be taken as speedily as possible to undertake it upon a comprehensive scale. The waters which now run in floods to the sea would be of in- calculable value if stored up for use, and the work is none too great for a State like California to carry out. gree. The police were rather late in asking for a show- down at Joe Harvey’s Mason-street gambling game, | but when they called they certainly held the top hand. The gamblers probably expected that Harvey's police friendship meant a different sort of a “wide- | open” town. Ll T el L It is announced that the rioting soldiers who ter- rorized the denizens of one of the local streets the other day are to be left to the mercy of the civil au- thorities. A few repetitions of rowdyism and law- lessness may leave the offenders at the mercy of the people. The woman who has asked Police Judge Graham for a warrant for the arrest of her husband on the ground that he has whipped her every night for a year might learn something to her advantage by read- ing the domestic life of Socrates and his wife.
