The Market-street Railroad Company commits many offenses against the community and is justly subject to much condemnation, but excessive prices for transportation is not one of them. No city in the world has a2 more rapid, more comprehensive, more convenient or cheaper system of street car transpor- tation than San Francisco. accord with the needs and the customs of our peo- It has been built up in | during the first two weeks in June, and where the family or some representative of it can be reached by mail aiter June 1; also, the number of persons, in- cluding servants, composing the family is to be in- | dicated. It is hoped in this way that a large part of the “tens of thousands” absent may get counted in the census to the credit of the city. Whether similar arrangements have been made for | other cities does not appear in the report which we find in our Eastern exchanges. Tt is hardly likely, however, that it would be confined to New York, for all cities should be treated alike. It might be well, however, for our officials to inquire into the matter, | for it is quite possible the favor may be given to cities that ask for it and not to those that neglect it. Our summer climate is so attractive that we do not lose much in the way of population during the sum- mer holiday season, for about as many come to town as leave it, but, nevertheless, it is advisable to get as full a count as we can. The issue is of more importance than appears on | the face of it. It is not a question merely. of making a big showing of population. For a number of years past one of the salient features of the development of civilization has been the increase of urban popula- The extent | tion at the expense of the rural districts. ple, and any interference with the system in the way | of the shifting of the people from the country to the proposed would lead to confusion and resuit in evils which would far outweigh the benefits expected. One of the notable advantages of the existing | system is the arrangement for transfers from the lines of one street car company to another. By that ar- rangement the two companies divide the one fare collected for the trip over both lines. If, now, a standing passenger be authorized to ride for two and a half cents, and take a transfer, one of the two com- panies would have to carry him for nothing. The inevitable resuit of such a rule would be to put an cnd to transfers. Instead of one fare there would be | a double fare. Thus the standing passenger would | | still have to pay five cents, and so gain nothing, while | the sitting passenger would have to pay ten cents; ~ | and thus double his expense. ; The difficulty of distinguishing between the sitting | and the standing passengers for a continuous trip is | another objection to the scheme. A man who boards | a crowded car, finding no seat, pays half fare, but within a block he may obtain a seat. Another man | finds a seat ready when he enters a car and pays fuil fare, but within a block he may have out of cour- | tesy to rise and give the seat to a lady. He will be then a standing passenger, and yet he has paid full | fare. A third objection rises from the hurry and impa- tience to get forward which is a characteristic of the American people. If there be three or four cars in o line every passenger will endeavor to get on the first car. That car will be crowded so that some of the passengers are iiterally hanging on the platform, while cars that will start two minutes later are left | with hardly enough passengers to fill the seats. To permit all these standing passengers to ride for hali- fare, when they have thus of their own will chosen to de that way rather than wait a minute or two, would be manifestly unfair to the companies. Moreover, it | would have a tendency to increase the number of the | impatient ones and thus lead to a further crowding of the cars, which is already carried too far in every | American community. Furthermore, it is to be noted that our theaters dis- miss from their auditoriums every night an aggregate something like 10,090 people, all of whom pour out into the streets at about the same time. The great | majority of them desire to get home at once, and play an even greater amount than usual of the characteristic American “rush.’ sible for the car companies to provide cars enough at that particular hour to furnish seats for all. Thus | a large number of the passengers would be entitled to half-: and those who paid fuli fare would be | exposed even more than now to the crushing of It would be impos- re, and crowding of standing passengers Finally, the ordinance would work a grievous wrong upon some of the street car companies while only dis commoding others. All of our street lines do not enjoy the enormous traffic of the Market-street Company. On the California-street line, for example, the cost | of transportation to the company is estimated at an average of three and one-third cents per passenger. To that company a half-fare for standing passengers | would mean almost a total loss of profits, while the Market-street line, after breaking its transfer ar- angements with other companies, would probably lose comparatively littie. The ordinance has nothing to commend it beyond the specious promise of cheaper fares for those who stand, and that promise is deceptive to all who take | transfers. Thus the number who would be benefited would be small, while the great mass of the people would suffer. There would be a loss of the transfers from the lines of one company to those of another, an | increase in the overcrowding of cars, a necessary re- duction in the car service of some of the lines during the hours when travel is light, and a general disar- rangement of all those conveniences which have made our system of street travel admired throughout | the world. | It is said to have cost the United States something over $1000 to pay the expenses of the offi'cia] trip of | Webster Davis to the Transvaal, and as he resigned | his office as soon as he returned home, it looks as if the Government had lost money by the speculation. | ;, @ NEW CENSUS SCHEME. | ECAUSE it has been decided that the count of B the population of the United States by the cen- sus officials shall be-made this year during the | first two weeks of June a good deal of dissatisfaction | has been expressed in New York and in some other | large Eastern cities. The claim is made that a con- siderable percentage of the residents of large cities | Jeave at that season of the year for the country or for | Europe, and that the percentage will be larger than | usual this year by reason of the Paris Exposition. It {is argued that because of the departure of these peo- ple a census taken in June will not be a correct pre- | sentation of the normal population of the larger cities. 3 The argument has considerable validity, though the number of persons who leave our cities for the | holidays is much overrated. The average American has not yet learned to take a vacation, and even those who delight in summer recreations content themselves with excursions and picnics to resorts in the vicinity of their homes. Still there is such an am- bition to make a shcwiing of a large population that | the census officers have devised a scheme for getting | ahead of the rush. | It is said Director Merriam arranged in New York tc have sent by the supervisor for the district to-the owners or occupants of all houses in the residence part of the city—that is to say, above Fourtéenth street—before April 1 a postal card, upon the back | towns will be one of the most interesting facts which the census will reveal. It is therefore in every way desirable that a true count be made of the city as well as of the rural population. The census of 1800 | was defective in many ways, and it is to be hoped this one will be more accurate and give a truef presenta- tion of the state of the country. Dr. Benjamin Andrews, who, after leaving Brown University, went to New York and from there to Chicago, has taken another westward step and goes to Nebraska to He president of the university of that State. These movements are ominots, for with but | two or three steps more the erratic and contentious THE PARIS EXPOSITION. scholar may descend upon us and start a ruction here. O completely is the civilized world occupied S with the war in South Africa, Russian schemes in Asia, German naval programmes, American expansion and industrial problems in every country that the near approach of the opening of the Uni- | versal Exposition at Paris attracts but little attention. The press is too busily engaged in publishing battle pictures and reports from the seat of war to give space to illustrations of the stately palaces of art and industry that have been raised on the banks of the Seine, and it is but rarely that even in the weeklies and the magazines any extended notice of the work is given. It is unforgunate that it should be so. Each suc- ceeding exposition is better and more magnificent than its predecessor, and reveals in a thousand ways | the advance which the world has made in the attain- ments of science and the achievements of mechanism. There will be nothing at Paris like the great court of honor at Chicago, but there will not be lacking points of vantage in which the new fair will surpass the wonderful white city. There is a sentiment arising from the consciousness that we are at the close of a marvelous century and the beginning of an era des- | tined to be even more marvelous which has stimu- lated men to make at Paris this year greater efforts than ever to show what the closing century has achieved. The civilized world, therefore, would have profited much if events had left the public mind free to consider the arts of peace at this time instead of wars and rumors of war. After the exposition opens and the brilliant series of festivals begin it is probable popular interest in it will grow rapidly. The French, at any rate, will do their uttermost to make it attractive, for they have not only a national pride but an immense pecuniary stake in the issue. Certainly they have been lavish and lib- €ral in providing for it. In the way of cost this ex- position far exceeds that at Chicago, although that was regarded at the time as something wonderful in | expenditure. According to a recent estimate over $200,000,000 has already been expended for the ex- position, and three-quarters of that amount has been borne by France. The event is the more interesting because with it there will close something more than the century. The whole political horizon of both hemispheres. is marked by portents of coming change. The United States has ceased to be an isolated nation. China has ceased to be a closed country. Russia has made a long stride toward a dominating position on the Asiatic side of the Pacific Ocean, and the British em- pire is engaged in a struggle which will materially alter its relations to the world. What effects these | changes will bring about in the commercial and in- dustrial struggles of the nations no one can foresee, but it is certain we shall not have another universal exposition under exactly the same conditions as pre- vail now. With this Parisian pageant we close the old time brilliantly, and the future lies before us full of menace as well as of promise. —————— THE @RMY TRANSPORT SERVICE. INCE some of the more reckless opponents of S the administration have endeavored to fix upon the Secretary of War a suspicion of jobbery or at least of wastefulness in the expenditures re- quired to provide transports for the army, it is worth while to direct attention to the fact that the recent statement of the Secretary showing the cost of pur- chase and equipment of the transports has completely refuted all such charges as were made or insinuated against him. The New York Marine Journal, wHich is one of the best authorities in the country on matters of this kind, warmly commends the wark of the-War De- partment in providing the transport service, and says: “Those who have inspected the ships of this fleet and know how excellently they have been adapted in every respect for their purposes, have invariably formed a very high opinion of them, In fact, it is very®doubt- 1 Whether the house or apartment is likely to be closed {/’bor Board that made the Wellington (N. | CALIFORNIANS IN NEW YORK.

In no particular was there any excessive amount paid either for ships or for repairs, and the officers who had charge of the work may justly be proud of the success attained. e e The report that Clark of Montana intends to re- sign his seat in the Senate is hardly correct, for he while the exhibitors are not ready for visitors the | of which is printed a blank form to be filled ou. | has no such seat.
