LL these months, after the “cultures,” and other methods, mostly uncultured, have been Aused to make it appear that bubonic plague was here, the health of San Francisco has been above the average. Neither epidemic nor endemic disease has been found here, and the in- dustries and commerce-of the city and State have gone on without panic or interruption. Common sense should inform any one that this could not have been so if the plague were here at the times its presence has been reported. . That pestilence does not conduct itself in such an indifferent way. Where its germs lodge speedy notice of its presence is served, and the fact of its existence is not left to be determined by a microscope in a secret laboratory. It proves its presence and its power as armies do—by the thousands it kills. : . Some scientific gentlemen in Vienna.imported the plague germs to play with in their lab- oratory. The germs escaped, and before that fact was known had slain a hundred people. A case appeared in Glasgow and immediately the disease spread. Its presence was so ‘well established that not the bacteriologist with his microscope had to discover it, for the grave-digger found it with his spade. So, wherever a case has appeared the presence of the Asiatic terror has needed no sci- entific announcement, but was certified by the slaughter that followed. If the plague were here last March thousands of deaths would have occurred before now. If it were here at any date the effects of its presence would be too plain to need any declaration by experts, domestic or im- ported. With sanitary conditions as they are in China, there is no other place outside of Asia where the disease would have been as much at home, or would have been more destructive. The conclusion of common sense is that it has not been here at all. No squinting at germs, dried or fresh, is required to prove this. The State has suffered the loss and vexation of an epi- demic without the epidemic. The Federal Quarantine Officer has shown a disposition to have the plague here at all hazards, and has inflicted very great injury upon California. His measure is taken by his registering under another than his right name at a Sacramento hotel. Men who are square with the world are not atraid to register under their proper names. It is almost infuriating that the prosperity of this State is in the hands of a public officer who goes under an alias. His superiors at Washington should have their attention,called to the matter. An officer of the United States should register and sign in his proper name, unless he belongs to -the secret service, or de- tective, branch of the Government. The cantroversy has been very unfortunate for this State, and its later phase is no improvement upon the past. It looks as if the State must prepare itself for a statutory defense against the charge that it has the plague. The discussion has not yet devel- oped the extent to which the State can go in taking exclusivé charge of its own sanitary matters. If the Federal Government had been represented here by a quarantine officer who commanded re- spect and confidence this issue would not have arisen at all. But unfortunately the quarantine offi- cer had none of the qualities that should be in that position. Of spiteful temper, fond of au- thority, lacking in judgment, opiniated and apparently ignorant, he so thoroughly identified himself with the bubonic plague that to deny its presence was to deny his presence also. It is easy to see that a proper man in his place could have aided the State. have saved it the loss of many thousands of dollars and have avoided the controversy that is now rising at Sacramento. The Treasury au- thorities at Washington should be less anxious to back up an official of mean and spiteful tem- per and weak judgment, and more anxious to ‘protect the people against the vast damage of false reports and useless quarantine. It will soon be a year since the first report of the presence of the plague in San Francisco. There were employed no drastic measures of sanitation to clean the city. There was a show of en- ergy in that direction, but it was on the surface, and did not at all touch the gendering * places where the disease is bred. There was no drenching with quick lime or acid phenique, so that if the germs were here then they could have grinned a microbe grin at the perfunctory cleaning up, and would have gone on killing hundreds a day. But nothing of the sort has happened, and the Treasury Department ought to have sufficient regard for the rights of common sense to accept this as proof that the only plague here is the plague of the presence of its quarantine officer and his few imitators and satellites. THE HOUR FOR CALIFORNIA: PON the great horologe of history the hour has struck for Californians to awake and act. The transfer of the Southern Pacific Company into hands that make the great railroad sys- tem of the company a part of a still greater system is for us an opportunity of tremendous import. Tt has been noted in the East as “the most gigantic railroad deal in the history of the United States.” To the people of that section it means no more than a vast financial operation and great business enterprise. To Californians it means something like a revolution affecting every in- terest of the State from business to politics. 3 With the new management of the road there should come new things. Under the old system we have suffered almost every ill that a monopoly can afflict upon a community. The Southern Pacific has not only made no attempt to promote the welfare of the. State, but it has done many things to injure it., : It has imposed upon our Industries the burden of freight rates made as oppressive as the traffic could bear. It has arranged schedules of rates that discriminated against San Francisco and the State at large. Its officials have practiced other discriminations directed against individuals or firms, and thus rendered even the most carefully conducted business insecure and hazardous. It has corrupted Supervisors, courts and legislators. _ It has sought to dominate the politics of the State so as to control the election of officials of almost every kind, and in its efforts to accomplish that end has hesitafed at nothing. : It has tried to intimidate, coerce and browbeat honest men who asked for justice; and it has made friends of the most vicious and degraded elements and bosses among both parties. Under the new management we cannot have worse than what has been. We may reasonably hope for much better. To a large extent it depends upon ourselves whether we obtain the better things or not. Chambers of Commerce, Boards of Trade, associations of manufacturers—all organizations which represent the interests of California—should unite in presenting to the new owners of the road a statement of the evil conditions imposed by the old management and ask for immediate redress. : o This is no time to take counsel with fear or'hesitation. Cowardice will win nothing. Delay will win nothing. Action can do no harm and may do a world of good. Let it be taken at once. Opportunity has knocked at the ‘door of California, but it will not wait. California must awake and act. ; German and English capitalists, it is said, have asked their governments to intercede with Uncle Sam to hasten an orderly admiinistration of affairs in the Philippines in order that great but safe investments of capital may be made. Under existing conditions it would seem that the appeal should more properly have been made to the Filipinos. - The people of the little Missouri town of Joplin must have a wretched opinion of one an- other or they are living an arcadian existence. They arrested a man the other day on suspicion of being a malefactor because he had money in his possession. g - Englishmen, .with badges of mourning for their Queen, made themselves conspicuous re- cently at a bullfight,in Nice. They probably did not understand that a mark of respect so noto- riously misplaced becomes an insult. > I NOp - The Presidio_officer who sent his pajamas to the laundry with $300 in greenbacks in one of the pockets certainly was original if not wise in choosing a place of security for his money. canons of the art by which they get their bread and butter. liere, Goethe, Hugo., Angier, Dumas and Rostand all the passages that run over two or three lines you have a residuum that might be good Sardou or Grundy or Gillette, but that is about all. Tha what We seem to like and that's what we get; what we have lost as literature we of those rare occasions when they secure interpretation. terpretation is good, more often it is bad, and one reason for its being so bad Is that the actors and actresses cannot speak the lines. Accustomed as they are to the short, choppy - dialogue of the modern play, when they tome to a passage of even 150 or 200 words they begin to floun- der heliplessly, and when they come to one of four or five hundred they are simply lost. The audience yawns, the stage man- ager's blue pencil comes in again to solve the difficulty by another cut, and so we g0 on from bad to worse. Yet in spite of managerial dictum it is sometimes even commercially worth Wwhile for an actor to learn how: to de- liver properly a long, elevated, poetical -passage. Let him conceal from his man- eger the fact that he has aspirations—for this once known is dangerous—until his chance comes: and it generally does come can his salt. Then he will prove true that which Mr. Archer said of Mr. Waller's Hotspur: “The enthusiasm with which it that it is not Shakespeare's long spech that bore modern audiences, but the tim- id, short-winded and halting delivery of the modern actor.” S5 ¥ Our friend Clement Scott {s nothing if not enthusiastic. Witness these opening remarks in his beautifully iNustrated biography of Ellen Terry (Stokes, New York): “I think that when Ellen Terry first appeared at the Haymarket * * * 1 never saw a more enchanting and more ideal creature. She was a poem that lived and breathed and suggested to us the gir herojnes that we most adored in poetry and the fine arts generally. Later on, as we all know, Ellen Terry played Queen Guinevere; but at this period she was Elaine the fair, Elaine the lovable, Elaine the lily maid of Astolat. She was Vivien with her mad, girlish pranks. * * * Again 4dnd again T saw her as I read and re-read Tennyson's ‘Princess.” She was the Porphyria of Robert Browning, and surely one of the crowned queens in the Morte d’Arthur. I wish I couid paint with pen an cven vague suggestion of this enchanting personality—tall, fair, wil- lowy, with hair like spun gold, a fault- less complexion, the very poetry of move- ment, with that wonderful deep-toned volce that has a heart-throb in it.” Charles Reade's description, quoted from the sa: book, has some contrast- ing features. rather long, her mouth nothing particular, complexion a delicate brickdust, her hair rather like tow. Yet somehow she {s beau- titul. Her expression kills any pretty face you see beside her. Her figure is lean and bony; her hand masculine in size and form. Yet she is a pattern of fawnlike grace.

This tendency once so was playing that he wrote begging her | not to spoil his scene by what he called her trying attitude.

In her “Stage Reminiscences” (Scrib- ner's for bruary) Mrs. Gilbert tells us that some fifteen years ago, when she was in London v s company, Mr. Toole r how she came to be so perfectly and natural on the stage. “I forget what I answered, but in the course of the conversation I sald, some moments later, i kmow I was trdined as a dance ‘That explains it® cried ‘Mr. Irving. ixpjaine what?” somebody | asked. ‘The ease and naturalness and all. Gilbert then goes on to describe the | severs physical training she recetved as a child—a training to which she attributes her splendid health and spirits and long | life. “It was a very serious ptofession, dancing. Beginners were often a | whole year ‘at the bar’ alone. * * © | Our workroom was a big hall, its sloped like a stage, and at the sides w bars. To these we clung with one hand while we practiced our side step: members of the class were always at | work in this way.

So it went on all day, and we were never In first rate con- dition and ready to do our best as dancers intil we were tired.” That was ing indeed—a little over- . but the principle of it was appear easy. graceful and nat- ' right. ural upon the stage an art that comes to few by natu » great major- |1ty never. beca they will not submit | to the toil necessary to acquire this art.
