It has succeeded (e} looki in inspiring the British Northwest with the same | spirit, and the people of Vancouver are moving for a restriction on Japanese immigration at that port. | The British Government is tod conservative to move hastily in the matter, and if it places any restrictions on the Japanese will do so only after investigation and full consideration, but we may as well prepare | for an issue of this kind as an incident in our coming | Presidential campaign.” Our Philadelphia contemporary is wrong in sug- | gesting preparation for the issue as an incident of the ‘(:xmpaign. It is not one of party politics, nor is it | likely to be. For the exclusion of Japanese our treaty with that country will have to be revised, and that is a matter for the careful consideration of the adminis- tration and of Congress. There 'is no need for a | campaign of education on the subject among the peo- ple, for they are virtually of one sentiment concern- ing it. All that is to be done is to urge the matter upon the authorities at Washington, and that has to a considerable extent been accomplished, for after the publication in The Call of the rapid growth of the immigration the Congressmen from this State at once took the matter up.

OAKLAND is now to be added to the length- . ening list of cities whose people have begun a campaign against the aggressions and the efficiencies of the telephone companies. Possessed of a monopoly which even if managed with fairness would yield an enormous profit, these companies in all parts of the Union seem animated by a mad kind | of avarice which impels them to inflict upon the pub- | lic every sort of wrong that will yield a penny to themselves. 8 to have committed its most serious offenses against its patrons is that of an inefficient service. The com- | pany demands good pay and high pay, but it gives poor work. At a recent meeting of the Merchants’ Exchange of the city there was an extended discus- sion of the subject, and without a dissenting voice a motion was adopted to communicate to the company a protest against its methods of doing business. In the course of the discussion one of the speakers stated that the telephone service in Oakland is worse than any with which he had come into contact iu any part of the country. He is quoted as saying: have lost whole hours in trying to make a switch, and have given up in disgust.- They tel! you ‘Line’s busy, P We pay enough for the telephone and should get It is time to call a halt.” In Oakland, as everywhere else, one of the evil overwork the employes, so that the service is neces- sarily inefficient.

For that reason State or municipal regula- tion of telephones is preferred to competition, and it is now probable such supervision will be ere long es- tablished throughout the country. The agitation in Oakland comes at an opportune time. We are now on the eve of electing a Legisla- ture to assemble next winter.

T adopted a sensible course in the process of pur- chasing the Calaveras big tree grove for a Fed- eral reservation. There has been a great deal of idle talk about the matter, based upon the supposition that the Govern- ment has power to confiscate private property. No such power exists, nor can the Government even condemn private property for public use, except upon proof of a public necessity therefor. Of course such proof in the case of the Calaveras grove is impossible, because its reservation is a sentiment and not a ne- It has been in private ownership for fiity years. during which time its owner has repeatedly sought to get it purchased for public use. But neither the State of California nor individuals saw any public necessity in acquiring it for the public, and financial necessity drove him actually to a forced sale of the property. His long ownership was no public offense nor was his transfer of that ownership or its acquisition by another for profit. Sentiment asks, very properly, that this first dis- covered of the great Sequoia groves be prederved, and those to whom that sentiment appeals, instead of zirding viciously at the old owner or the new, should be glad that their transaction and transfer of the title roused public attention here, and kept it awake long enough to impress Congress with the desirabil- THE CALAVERAS TREES. HE Secretary of the Interior seems to have | ity of purchasing the property. The Secretary of the Interior, endowed with au- thority to bond it at a price and advise Congress, has | sensibly refrained from offering any price, and the owner has fixed none. The Government must first know what the property is, and ascertain approxi- mately its value. This it cannot find out. in the rhapsodies of sylvamaniacs, nor the sordid estimates of tree butchers. Therefore the Secretary has asked Congressional authority to appoint three Commis- sioners to expert the title, examine the property, es- timate its value and arrange with the owner for its purchase. This is the proper and businesslike method and if it be authorized and followed will result in saving the grove from the ax and saw, which have been im- pending over it all of the fifty years of its private ownership. While the boasted reforms of the Police Depart- ment go merrily on the reformers would do well to | inspect the results of their labors on Market street.
