We have waited so long a tion for the upbuilding of our merchant marine that even that heavily burdened and comparatively poor and landlocked empire has sur- passed us on the sea, despite the fact that our sea- board commands thousands of miles of frontage on the two greatest of oceans. Referring to what has been accomplished there by wise statesmanship, the Chronicle say: “A new and resolute claimant for sca power has risen. Germany has doubled and trebled her mavy. Already she holds the Atlantic record. Her system of mail subsidies has secured not merely a foothold in Asia and Australia, where formerly Britain was supreme, but is on the eve of iving another fleet of British steamships from the sea. (Germany has stretched out her hands,for the trident. * * * Within a few months the Reich- stag will again be asked to increase the German flee: by 50 per cent.” The interest of the United States in “the struggle for the tridemt” is not so vital as that of Great Brit- ain. Owur national salvation and prestige do not de- pend upon the control of the sea, but our commer- cial interests demand that we act as energetically as cither Germany or Britain in the contest. We now pay an enormous tribute to those two powers, and with the expansion of our foreign ‘trade the tribute will increase unless we build up a merchant marine of our own. Hardly any issue now before the coun- try is more important than this, and from all parts of the country there should be sent petitions urging Congress to take action upon it this winter.

There | THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, ‘THU.RSDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 1900, THE HAPPY END. | ‘ — | J T is significant that fewer mourners go about the l streets than are usually seen after a Presidential | * election. In their hearts hundreds of thousands of Bryan's supporters are glad that he is beaten. They felt a common stake in the welfare of the country and dreaded the effect of his election. While they pre- tended to hope for his election as a prize in the lottery of politics, they rejoice that they drew a blank in his defeat. His methods were counted as extraordinary, but their lack of dignity was equally apparent. His ubiquitous presence cn the stump weakened him daily. His expert dodging of test questions fixe.d him in the public mind as a sort of “smart Aleck” in | politics and made the lack of his qualifications for the | Presidency more painiully apparent. But that verylack | drew to him an element that was trained in disrespect for the decencies of politics, and is moved by a purely revolutionary view ot public affairs. This is the merely destructive element in the United States. The few men of sound intentions who supported him had finally thrust upon them the appalling conviction that, if elected, they would have no voice nor influence in is administration, which would be controlled by the destruc s and bent to their purposes. Of the de stroving element Hearst and his three papers were the leaders. They furnished the country with an ex- hibition of inconsistency and iqul and impudent lying that has never been equaled American politics. The personal effrontery of Hearst, his flamboyant ations, his pandering to everything bad, his iv in per: personal abuse of the President, his prac- tice of everything vicious and low and capable of de- grading public life to the mud of the gutter in which he chooses to flounder, made a handicap to Bryan sec Tond ¢ to his own irdiscretions of speech and shal- lowness of statement. country has risen and shaken the whole com- d every good heart brightens and beats ffort.

Tens of thousands of Americans will find therein congenial ble employment. We have the greatest land est transportation system on the waters. No man pretends that all this future development may be had without occasional pauses, when it will rest a bit to get breath for the exertion to come. But, in such pause, it will hold whaf it has taken and go backward not an inch. Our external policy will get a sane adjustment. The American people will do equity to everybody. The inevitable miseries that mix with the blessings of the Spanish war will be soothed at any cost by the | American people, even at the cost of amending their constitution if that shall prove necessary. The republic is to-day stronger than ever before. The insidious enemy of popular institutions is dema- gogy, more to be feared than the world in arms. Twice the demagogy &f Bryanism has fiercely assaulted the feundations of our Government, and twice it has been repulsed by the most significant rebuke ever adminis- tered by a free people.

S longer anything to be gained by disputing the | prosperity of the country, even the Bryanites | may be pleased with the record shown by tie returns of the recent census. The figures are of a nature to | brighten expectations of the coming Thanksgiving | and to put every,good citizen in a humor to celebrate with a glad heart all the functions and customs of that | annual holiday. The statement given out by the Census Bureau and published a few days ago shows that the total popu- lation of the country last summer was 76,205,220, of which 74,627,907 persons are contained in the forty- five States. The statement also shows a total of 134,- | 158 Indians not taxed. The total population in 180, { with which the aggregate population at the present | census should be compared, was 63,060,756, compris- ing 62,622,250 persons enumerated in the States and }organized Territories at that census, 32,052 persons in Alaska, 180,182 Indians and other persons in the In- | dian Territory, 145,282 Indians and other persons on Indian reservations, etc., and 89,000 persons in ; Hawaii, this last named figure being dcri\'cdvfrom the | census of the Hawaiian Islands taken as of December i:& 1890. Taking this population as given above for | 1800 as a basis, there has been a gain in population | of 13,225,464 during the ten years from 1890 to 1900, representing an increase of very nearly 21 per cent. } Along with that increase of population there has come a most gratifying increase of wealth. The offi- | out, but in a recent address delivered at Washington Dr. L. G. Powers, chief statistician of the Census | Bureau, stated that the census will show that within the last ten years our people have saved the enor- mous sum of $25,000,000,000, and that the whole vis- ible wealth of the country now approximates $90,000,- 000,000. Ninety billions of dollars is an enormous sum of money. It can be expressed in figures, but it cannot be realized by the understanding or conceived by the imagination. Dr. Powers is quoted as saying | that the savings of the last ten years in this country “represent more houses and buildings, more good clothes, good books and all sorts of necessities and luxuries than the entire human race had saved from | the time of Adam to our Declaration of Indepen- dence.” | The growth of population and the increase of | wealth have not been equally distributed through the Union, but there is not enough difference to give rise to any feeling of sectional envy or discontent, The sections where the progress has been less than the hopes of the 'sanguine expected are the Pacific Coast and the South, but each of those sections has a promise of a brilliant advance during the decade that now opens. The development of manufactures in | the South will surely bring about a great improve- | ment in those States, and the expansion of oriental commerce will give this coast an impetus that will Erapid]y promote all her enterprises. As yet neither States” of the Union, but it will not be long before | they do go. The time when they will be rivals to Illinois and Ohio, if not to New York and Pennsyl- vania, is coming fast. A RUSSIAN REFORM PROJECT. UR great and good friend the Czar of Russix | O is reported to be lying awake at night think- ing how he can best reform the Russian no- bility and make it something the pation can be justly proud of. He leaves to his diplomats and his generals the settlement of the Chinese question, and his famous propaganda for universal peace has seemingly been laid aside altogether, so that he has now full leisure after the court functions far the day are over to speni his evenings playing with his babies and meditating how to elevate the nobility. It must not be supposed his reform is anything of a moral project. He is not disturbed by the drinking, the gambling and cigarette smoking of his nobles, The only thing that makes him tired is that there are too many of them and they are not aristocratic. In Russia every child of a noble is also a noble, and, furthermore, every one who attains to a certain rank in the service of the empire becomes a member of the nobility by virtue of his office, and then all his descendants are nobles. The result is a rapid increase of nobles, some of whom may be rich, but most of whom are not. Thus it happens there are now in the empire over 600,000 nobles by inheritance and 250,000 nobles by virtue of the office they hold.” That, as the Czar rightly thinks, is altogether tob many, and he meditates an extensive cleaning out of the whola gang. By reason of the number and the poverty of the order Russian nobility is said to be anything but aristocratic. A good many Princes sell herrings for a living and about as many Princesses take in washing. By reason of that fact, which the Czar regards as a sad one, the Russian nobility is said to be scorned by tha wealthier nobility of Western Europe, and the Czar feels that his country is discredited. How he will go about his reform remains to be seen, but if he wishes advice on the subject Ameri- cans can give him a good deal, and every bit of it will be sound horse sense. Uncle Sam would advise him to treat Russian nobility as Russian serfdom was treated. An emancipation proclamation should be is- sued relieving every man from the burden of false pre- tenses and onerous titles. The best way to reform any nobility is to abolish ———— The critical day of the political campaign having passed, the national mind can now turn its attention to football.
