HE result of the State elections in the East I offers not a ray of hope to the Democracy, which Bryan has so thoroughly demoralized that it seems incapable of reinstatement in public con- fidence. While it is not gratifying that a Repnblican machine like that in Pennsylvania maintains its grip on the State, yet that is owing to the overwhelming Republican sentiment there, and to the feeling that anything is better than the giving of aid and com- fort to the Bryan movement. The extreme communistic programme of Mr. Josizh Quincy Massachusetts was no lure to the voters, and his plan for uniting conservatives and radicals under the same banner has failed utterly. The effort to Tomjohnson Ohio has met with no better success, and the Nebraska fusion has gone down under the sense of Republican amity and the frowns of such old Democratic leaders as J. Sterling Morton. The only reaction is in Maryland, where in running from Wellington the voters have run into the arms of Gorman. The race issue was potent in that re- sult, as it was in Virginia, and the net conclusion from all the elections is that the South will stay with the race problem and vote anti-Republican, while the North stay with national prosperity and progress and remain Republican. The race issue out of the way, the country would | be as unanimous politically and as little partisan as in the “golden age,” when Monroe had all the elec- toral votes but one, and that cast against him only be- cause the elector said he wanted no man unanimously elected President. He was a Monroe man, but wanted to be different from the mass The South is prospering and desires to continue prosperous, and, freed from her ethnological afflic- tion, would join the rest of the country and be Re- publican. But that is an indifferent matter. The majority is Republican, and there is no sign of a change. The party must not forget its responsibility nor sleep at its post. It is strong enough to do right and old enough to know what right is. The unanimity of present political conditions does not mean that its power is never to be challenged, but if in time fate overtake it let Republicanism be found with its hand on the plow and with every wheel turning and every ship full of cargo and every mouth fed. That this will be the case no student of economy doubts. Just what form the opposition will take next no eye can foresee. With the two methods of fusion beaten in their homes, in Massachusetts and Ne- braska, it may well be that the opposition will be in effect abandoned to the socialists, and that party may become the residuary legatee of the political estate which Mr. Bryan has bankrupted The enormous pluralities in Ohio and Towa in an off year and with a light yote show that Republican- »m is as strong in the agricultural as in the manu- facturing sections of the country. Even Tammany has gone down, and that sole remaining Democratic power is destroyed. If the negro question were out of the way a motion to make it unaninfous would be in order. One of the arguments used in the East for the speedy construction of the Nicaraguan canal is that when completed it will “make a wonderful difference in the price of Califorria oranges in the Eastern mar- ket.” It is hardly necessary to say we are hoping it will also make a difference in the price here. Senator Aldrich is reported to have said there will be no tinkering with the protective tariff this winter, either directly or by the so-called reciprocity treaties, and as the Senator is an authority on such subjects his statements will be gratifying to the country, From the frequency with' which British dispatches repeat that the illness of the King is not serious it would seem to be serious enough to trouble some- body and keep him watching. | THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 1901 THE RIVAL CANALS. AST winter The Call predicted that the admin- L istration would have control of the canal ques- tion in such a way as to overcome any further use of obstructive tactics. The enemies of the isth- mian canal, being dislodged from all other positions, assumed a patriotic air and talked the star-spangled banner. They wanted the canal and the shores of Lake Nicaragua converted into a continuous Ameri- can fortress, with the flag flying like a streak of glory from sea to sea, the cannons roaring and the bands playing “Yankee Doodle.”” In order to effect this continuous vaudeville performance the rest of the world was to be snubbed and larruped. But in the process the canal was going to be made so costly that unless part of its cost were charged off the investment to be borne directly by American taxpayers in appro- priations for the War Department the tolls for using the waterway would be prohibitive. ‘While not all who opposed the Hay-Pauncefote treaty were enemies of the canal, the opposition to that treaty got its impulse from such enemies, be- cause its defeat meant delay and time to inflame na- tional feeling to the pitch of demands that would make the canal impossible. It was evident then that the administration would negotiate another treaty with Great Britain, and if it were beaten by the hullaballoo tactics employed before would have a proposition for the Panama canal so favorable that with its freedom from Euro- pean complications it would compel the obstruction- ists to show their hands and assume their true char- acter, that of enemies of the project they pretended to favor. Since this prediction was made the Panama Canal Company has abated its attitude of independence, and, by the tacit consent of its grantor, the republic of Colombia, is offering terms so favorable that our Government finds itself in position to use them to force the Nicaragua project to a vote over all dilatory tactics. Ever since Humboldt wrote his “Political Essay on the Kingdom of New Spain,” in which he discussed an isthmian canal as a work worthy of the attention of Spain, then the owner of the isthmus, the Nicar- agua and Panama routes have been equally promi- nent and about equally favored by engineers, capital- ists and navigators. Panama offers the shortest route, only about thirty miles. The Nicaragua utilizes Nicaragua Lake and the San Juan River, and requires a system of locks. The original design of De Lesseps for the Panama canal was a sea level waterway, requiring no lockage, enabling greater economy of operation and short- ening the time required to pass from ocean to ocean. With a choice of routes, and with all the engineer- ing data at hand, it may be confidently anticipated that the coming session of Congress will settle the canal question and enable the beginning of the work. Surely it is time. That waterway has been unde= dis- cussion more than a century. It has been an cbject of interest to American statesmanship since Jeffer- son was our representative in France in 1788 and wrote to Mr. Carmichael at Madrid: “With respect tc the Isthmrs of Panama, I am assured by Bii-goin that a survey was made, that a canal was practicable, and that the idea was suppressed for political reasons altogether. He has seen and minutely examined the report. This report is to me a vast desideratum, for reasons political and philosophical.” Clay, when Secretary of State in 1825, wrote t6 Senor de Canaz, first diplomatic representative of the Central American republic to Washington: “The idea has been long conceived of uniting these two seas by a canal navigation. The execution of it will form a great epoch in the commercial affairs of the whole world. Various lines for the proposed canal have been suggested and have divided public opinion. The evidence tending to show the superiority of the advantages of that which would traverse the province of Nicaragua seems tc have nearly settled the ques- tion in favor of that route.” That was seventy-six years ago, and no canal yet! The “great epoch in the commercial affairs of the whole world” is not yet. Surely it will not wait beyond the next session of Congress. e C——— The care which President Roosevelt is exercising in the selection of horses for use in Washington has attracted the attention of newspaper men in that city, and the result is we are getting a good deal of inter- esting information concerning the subject. Thus a correspondent of the Philadelphia Public Ledger re- cently said: “It is really a hard matter to buy.a horse for driving in Washington. If a large and stylish animal is wanted great care must be given to his way of going or he will be likely to pound his feet to pieces on the asphalt. Here there is asphalt everywhere and it is tough stuff to work a horse on. The hoof is always badly strained in the never- ending impact, and also dries to a brittle state that develops quarter cracks.” It would appear from all that information that the streets of which Washington has been bragging so much are hardly fit for any- thing except bicycles or automobiles. FS(. Louis, it appears to be their intention to make a bigger exposition than any ever before held. All their talk is of bigness. We hear nothing about quality. Whether the exposition is to be beautiful, interesting, instructive, does not count. The one thing to be achieved is to make it in every respect a “mammoth aggregation of stupendous details,” as the circus posters have it. The Columbian exposition at Chicago occupied 666 acres of ground, but the St. Louis people have set apart 1200 acres in Ferest Park for their exposition, and now the managers are asking for 200 acres more, so as to have 1400 for what they call their “colossal fair.” To provide enormous structures for the huge area they have already raised more money than Chicago had to begin with, and they expect much more. For the Columbian Exposition Chicago raised $5,000,000 by public subscriptioa, $5,000,000 by municipal bonds and $2,750,000 more was obtained from the Federal Government, making a total of $12,750,000. St. Louis has raised $5,000,000 by public subscription, $5,000,000 by municipal bonds, $5,000,000 from the United States Government and $1,000,000 from the State of Missouri, making a total of $16,000,000 to start with. The total cost of the Columbian Exposi- tion is estimated at $18,322,000, and the St. Louis officials estimate the total cost of their enterprise at $30,000,000. One of the big features of the exposition will be the building designed for the exhibits of agriculture. The structure is to cover 32% acres, and it is said it will be the largest exposition building ever erected. One of the officials in describing it in a recent inter- view said: “It will be 700 by 2000 feet in dimensions, A MATTER OF BIGNESS. ROM statements made by the officers of the Louisiana Purchase Exposition, to be held at’ : There will be room in it for a mile racetrack.” There are to be other huge record-breaking structures. Among them will be the manufacturers’ building No. 1, 600 by 1200 feet; transportation building, 600 by 1200 feet; mines and metallurgy building, 600 by 1200 feet; the United States Government building will cover 100,000 square feet. Other buildings, all the largest of their kind ever used for exposition purposes, are the electricity, the liberal arts, the education, the social economy, the service. The total cost of these buildings has been estimated at $7,000,000. In one respect the St. Louis enterprise will fall be- low the magnitude of that at Chicago—the art de- partment will not be so large as that at the Colum- bian Exposition; but the St. Louis official who ad- mitted the defect was prompt to add that the quality will be much finer. Then the St. Louis Exposition expects to prove superior to all predecessors in the extent to which it will be a live show. Thus we are told: “There will be the cotton mill in operation. There will be the pork-packing house in operation. There will be the cheese factory in operation. There will be the zinc, lead, coal and gold and silver mines and the smelter in operation. Everything will be ‘on the move.”” Finally, St. Louis is to have a big thing in the way of a novelty, bigger than the Tour Eiffel or the Fer- ris wheel. It is to be an “aerial globe,” built of steel and glass, with a circumference of a thousand feet and a capacity to hold 23,000 people. It is to be chuck full of amusements from bottom to top, and we are told: “There will be room for thousands to én- joy an a la carte evening meal while feasting their eyes upon semi-tropical luxuriance of plants and flowers in all their glory, and ever and anon looking upward at ‘the awe-inspiring steel arches, 175 feet high, and eight in number, which will rise from the edge of the garden and meet at the extreme top of the globe under the observatory tower room, 570 feet above the ground.” Really St. Louis seems determined to push bigness to the limit. Possibly she marks the end of that kind of extravagance. After the big thing has been seen we may hope there will be a return to reason among our people and that expositions hereafter will aim not at nfere magnitude, but at something of ar- tistic excellence. Already there are many Americans who would rather not see so much than have to see so many things that are not worth seeing. B — Should Liverpool and Glasgow establish a quar- antine to prevent the import of some plague from Italy it would occasion no surprise, but it is rather odd to learn from European dispatches that Naples and Genoa have established a quarantine against Glasgow and Liverpool.. It is the belief of the Italians that the two British ports are infected A PARK AQUARIUM. S the trustees of the Mechanics’ Institute, at A the request of the Park Commissioners, have turned over to the park authorities the aqua- rium tanks in the Mechanics’ Pavilion, it is fair to assume that it is the intention to establish at Golden Gate Park the foundation of an aquarium. It is grati- fying to have such a movement under way. The aquarium may have to begin in but a small way, but there is a possibility of making it one of the foremost if not the very foremost in the world. 5y An elaborate aquarium would be something more than a spectacle for the people, however excellent it would be in that way. At the present time scientific research is largely directed to the ocean and the mar- velous life that goes on within its depths. Wherever an aquarium of any scientific value is established stu- dents assemble from all parts of the civilized world. It is therefore possible to add to the prestige of the city as a center of science and of learning by provid- ing here an aquarium that would be fairly represen- tative of the fishes of the Pacific Ocean. San Francisco has advantages of situation and of climate which will help to lighten the cost of making and maintaining a large aquarium. The proximity to the sea renders it comparatively easy to obtain sea water for the tanks and to obtain the fish that are to dwell in them. The mildness of the throughout the year will save the heavy cost which other cities have to bear to keep the waters from freezing in the winter. Thus the undertaking of an aquarium does not involve the Park Commissioners in any kind of costly enterprise. It may be accepted as fairly certain that when once an aquarium has been established it will become oge of the most popular resorts at the park. Public ap- proval will be given to its extension, and perhaps lib- eral contributions may be made by generous citizens. The movement, therefo-e, is one that tends in the right direction, and it is to be hoped it will go briskly forward. — In a recent address to young men Secretary Gage said: “Nothing succeeds like success. To succeed make your services felt, but do not blow your own horn too much, and you will find an empty Presi- dent’s chair waiting for you in the end.” The advice sounds well, but aspiring young men had just as well take notice that up to this time in the history of our country the President’s chair has never yet been found empty and waiting for somebody to fill it. Kaiser Wilhelm has issued a manifesto to his troops who served in China warmly thanking them for their services and declaring they have added “fresh laurels to the ancient glory of the German arms.” The praise sounds a little bit large for the size of the war, but then it must.be remembered the invasion of China is the only military glory the Kaiser has had, and he must make the most of it. The sporting season in Maine is unusually brilliant this year. Already a dozen men have been shot by mistake for deer, and one hunter was fortunate enough to bag two men at one fire, while another shot a friend in the foot by mistake for a rabbit, Altogether it is about the most strenuous year Maine has ever had. —_— Joseph Chamberlain has once more declared in favor of reducing the number of Irish representatives in Parliament, but it may be he is making the bluff just to get people to quit thinking about the fiasco he made of the Boer war. s S How would it do to propose to those Bulgarian bandits that if they will give up Miss Stone without a ransom they may have permission to come to the United States and run a melodrama or a comic opera for a year? 4 ’ —_— It is predicted that this will prove to be the banner year of the grocery trade, so it is evident the people are living well and are able to pay for it. g el Now that the elections are over, if the autumn raing would only come along in good measure everybod; would be happy. i with bubonic plague and they are taking no chances. | climate | NINE YEARS WALKING AROUND THE WORLD NIKOLAUZ DOUBAY, WHO SET OUT NINE YEARS AGO TO COVER THE EARTH ON FOOT AND SAYS A FOURTH OF HIS JOURNEY REMAINS TO BE ACCOMPLISHED.

Grant did attain a higher rank in the army than that of Meutenant general. The grade of general was first created by act of Con- gress March 3, 1799, and George Washing- ton was appointed to fill it. This rank was, after the death of Washington, abol- ished and it was not revived again until 1866, when it was conferred upon Grant. Upon the election of Grant to the Presi- dency Willlam T. Sherman succeeded him in the grade of general. On_the retire- ment of General Sherman, November 1, 1883, the office again became extinct.

He asked kind'y | about the author, with the resuit that the | articles will shertly appear in a book. | Herbert Vivian has written a critical study of the life of Lord Beaconsfleld from his own peculiar ultra modern, u- tra Tory standpoint. It is an interesting, little known fact that after the death of the Whirlwind, that short-lived weekly, which Vivian and the Hon. Stuart Ers kine edited in 1889, Vivian was brought good deal into contact with the late Lorl Randotph Churchill. The conversations they had are said to have largely influ enced the study of Lord Beaconsfleld which has just been finished. Vivian's previous books have been mostly records of his travels. He is at present editing the resuscitated Rambler. He was born in 1865 and comes, as his name implies of a Cornish family. | There was, by the way, some talk a short time ago of a critical study of Lorl Beaconsfield by Israel Zangwill, but the idea seems to have been abandonec Zangwill .Included Lord Beaconsfleld, it will be remembered, in his “Dreamers o the Ghetto.” At present the author of “Children of the Ghetto” is busy fulfilling | commissions for short stories, which hav. been accumulating during the time he was writing his recent novels and plays. I am told that Lady Sykes Is again about to becdme an editor. Her new | paper is to be 1 weekly, which will be en | tirely under her own supervision. Lady Sykes’ pet hobby s newspaper work, of which, by the way, she has very gool practical knowledge. Marion Crawford's next story, “The Harvest of the Sword,” is said to be the most ambitious yet written, for in it he introduces a series of characters memora- ble in history and literature.

Encouraged by his success, that young author Neifl Munro, who has come so rap- dly to the front lately, has beem very busy with a new novel, “The Shoes of Fortune,” said by those who have seen the manuseript to be by far the flnest ef- fort he has yet made. The scene is lail in Scotland and France in the year 175 The hero is a young lad, new from a Scottish college, who inherits from an uncle a trivial legacy and the so-callea “shoes of fortune,” which have been worn in many wanderings by the unci~ and are credited by the nephew with magie qualities for inspiration and stim- ulation. They play a curious part in the story, leading the hero into many exeit- ing adventures.

The im- pressions of the plates are fine through- out, but a few are slightly solled. Itis a curious fact that the number of plates varies in each known copy of this rare work. In this case the number is weil above the average. There has been a report that the dispute between Messrs. Pearson and Hall Caine has been settled, but that, I am informed, is quite unfounded. The case will probably be heard toward the middle of November. Lewis & Lewis have acted throughout for Mr. Caine and emijnent counsel have been engaged om both sides. On one occaslon—one at least—Albert CheVvalier had supper with Rudyard Kip- ling, when the latter recited a poem he bad just written. An account of this meeting, which could hardly have been dull, is being given away by Chevaller in his forthcoming autobiography. He begins his own life early, at the sixth year, but then, of course, he began early to make a figure in the world. He classes as foremost among the events of his life the tour which he made in America. 1 believe that, although Chevaller has often been interviewed, the Dbest stories remain to appear in his book.
