[he hotel is a notable feature of all progressive Amer. cities. Our methods of life bring hotels into demand. We are incessantly traveling, we have an enormous “tourist” population that spends he year wandering from summer resorts to winter resorts, going up and down the land in search of new pleasures and new scenery. We have a great number # conventions every year, each of which brings hun- eds and sometimes thousands of delegates to the where they are held. T‘c tourists and the con- entions demand good hotfls. The casual visitor udges the city by the hote] accommodations. So is the pressure in that direction that in the arger cities of the Union new hotels are projected most yearly. Sacramento must follow other cities that respect or she will be left behind in the race. I'liere is no denying the proposition that the ad- tages of Sacramento are as good as those of any her interior town. It will be her own fault if she do profit by them.

T is certainly not by the help of any outside in- l fluences that Mr. Cleveland has become a most prominent object of public interest and is once more a pepular personality. The public men of his party in the South had the | most to do with his undoing as a leader. It is not ysaying too much to say that they never liked him. | | The somewhat virulent opposition to him developed | by Isham G. Harris in his first term extended rapidly in his second, and Morgan of Alabama, Vest of Mis- | souri and Tiliman of South Carolina became its rabid | promoters from 1893 until his complete overthrow in 1896. It is of interest to remember that this oppo- sition was greatly propagated by attacks upon him on the negro question. He appointed negroes to office. | When his first term began he found Frederick Doug- | lass in office as Register of the District of Columbia. | In one of the usual formal official receptions at the White House Douglass appeared, accompanied by his | white wife, and then all over the South went the charge that Cleveland was a miscegenationist! This and other issues on essentially public issues |and policies were used with vehemence to entirely | destroy his popularity in the South, so that by 1896 the delegations from that section to the national con- | vention were in a white heat of anger against him and | his friends and all that he represented. Mr. Bryan | was adroit in taking advantage of this, and made wide | and unscrupulous use of it by denouncing Mr. Cleve- land on all occasions, so that when the convention met he was planted on a pedestal composed of his‘ | extreme utterances of enmity toward the President.’ He has never scrupled since to continue this course, | but the feeling of enmity that made it prudent to cul- | is nevertheless taking place very rapidly. The pres- disaster ever since the Wilson tariff fiasco, the doc- trinaires are eager to try the game again. More- over, it is probable they may once more induce the Democratic party to take up the fight for them. It is therefore well for the public to keep the issue in mind, for the only way to save the industries of the country from the effects of another tariff agitation is to emphasize public sentiment in favor of protec- tion so strongly that even the most reckless of poli- ticians will not dare to venture upon reviving the issue in the coming campaign. Tt will cost more than $500,000 in money and six months in time to repair the battleship Iowa. This is cheap in comparison to the cost of having to submit to Emperor William’s grin of satisfaction at the verification of one of his criticisms of the American navy. A THE CONSULAR SERVICE. LTHOUGH Congress has never passed any of the many measures devised for the reform of the consular service, it appears that reform sure of commercial cxpansion has been felt in the State Department, and in response to the demands of merchants and manufacturers the service is being filled up with men competent to promote Americhn trade and advance American interests. President Roosevelt has cordially co-operated in the work of improving the personnel of the service and has given the politicians at Washington to under- stand that such appointments can no longer be ob- tained for partisan services only. The applicant for a consular office must be fitted by nature and by training to perform the duties which the American | tivate his own popularity at the expense of Mr. Cleveland’s has lapsed by time, and now is so f:u'i forgotten that the whole South turns back, eats its words of hatred and is acclaiming the former object | venom and vengeance as among the wisest | and best of his countrymen.

It illustrates something more than the | fickleness of the Southern people, for it exhibits their | k of deliberation and judgment. It aids in re- habilitating Mr. Cleveland, but in no wise helps in | ring confidence in the wisdom and discrimination | South. | It is well to consider that the same. people are denouncing President Roosevelt for the same reason that they formerly gave for denouncing Mr. Cleveland, while there is every cvidence that President Roosevelt Liolds exactly the same views of | lic se of | | | the race question v e their admiration when | uttered by Mr. Cleveland. The parallel i Both appointed negrces to office. At official recep- tions each received negro officials, and as for Booker | | Washington dining at the White House, it was noj n President Roosevelt's indorsc-i ment of his well-known position on the race issue, which Mr. Cleveland indorses in his presence and by tw »earing in. his company and speaking with | him from the same platform. | Of course it will be said by Watterson and Bryan" that all this recent recrudescence of popularity | means that Mr. Cleveland seeks a third term in lh('; Presidency.

He announces that there are 29,074,117 persons engaged in gainful occupations in this country, and that out of the entire number only 600,000 would be injuriously affected by a repeal of all protective duties gn im- | ports. He then speaks of the 600,000 as a protected minority drawing support by taxation from the rest | | of the workers of the country, and concludes that we | shounld establish a system of free trade and set the protected workers to some other kind of work. | The figures will hardly stand any kind of discrimi- | nating criticism. To get his 20,000,000 workers he has to include farmers, lumbermen, stock raisers, pro- | fessional men, domestic servants and all persons en- | gaged in trade and transportation. In order to re- | duce to 600,000 all those who are benefited by protec- | tion he has to limit such benefits to those of the most direct kind. Mr. Atkinson would doubtless say that a farmer growing cane or sugar beets is bene- | fited by the tariff, but a farmer growing grain is not, | thus ignoring the fact that if the sugar producing | farmers were forced out of that business they would \liave to enter into competition with farmers pro- | ducing corn or wheat or fruit, and as a result there would be a tendency to lower the prices of such Iproducts, to the manifest injury of those formerly engaged in the work. Even, however, were Mr. Atkinson’s figures con- ceded his argument would still be weak, for it would by no means follow that we should abandon pro- tection because it benefited only a minority. - If by protection we give employment to 600,000 persons | who would otherwise be unemployed we add the amount of their wages to the consuming power of the country and the amount of their product to the na- tional wealth. If they did not remain unemployed they would force others out of employment, or at least depress wages in the trades and industries they entered. { The argument is interesting mainly because it is another evidence of the activity of the free-traders in developing a sentiment antagonistic to the protective system.

The Washington Star in hoting what has been done in the way of reform says: “The service has been gradually improved in recent administrations, but has not yet come up to the President’s standard. He is now engaged in hoeing out the weeds, and in the several weeks past more men in the establish- ment have been removed for reasons of reform than ever before in the same space of time.” The report adds: “There now are 327 posts in the service. While perhaps the poorest paid, it is looked upon as already the miost efficient consular corps in the world. In the old days these posts were looked upon very generally as sinecures, offering a foreign liici of ease to men with sufficient private fortune to ad- | mit of their mingling in society abroad. Literary | men coveted many of the berths for the abundant material cffered and many a lasting bit of fiction has been inspired by the romantic surroundings of our consulates. But the tidal wave of Yankee commer- cial supremacy has now beaten upon the shores of the farthest distant isles of the seas and nearly every | American Consul is busy The improvement. thus being effected in the ser-| vice without the aid of reform legislation tends to | confirm Dr. Johnson's theory that the Government | that is best administered is best. It proves that| when a long desired reform becomes a necessity andi men are resolved to have it there is always found | some way of achieving it, even if politicians object. It would be better, of course, to have a lhnmugh; reform of the consular system, but even if the pres‘; ent system continue it can be made to work well by | a resolute President. President Loubet is having all sorts of fun making a trip through France to Algiers. And it would be just like our envious French friends to bring before him an African lion to throw into the shade the mountain variety President Roosevelt slew. THE GOLD STRIKE. HE great coal strike in Pennsylvania is to be followed by an almost equally great gold strike | in the mines of California. The trouble that has originated in Amador County is of the most se- rious nature. The mines are shutting down. Great improvements in progress on some of them, involv- ing expenditures of hundreds of thousands of dollar: | in mills and machinery, are stopped and a blight is| already falling upon the mining towns. Old mines, | improved methods and iatending to employ hundreds of men, but now this is ended. It is gratifying that the mine-owners propose to by non-union men. By deciding to not stand on| their rights as American citizens they may avert thel murders and destruction of property which usually accompany these contertions. The loss will be widely | distributed. The mackine shops in this city will feel | it, as will the valley peaple who market supplies in the | mines and the business men in the dismantled towns. | But this is not as bad as would be the loss of iife, | which is prevented by the course of the owners. Gold mining is an important interest in this State, and every year enormous sums are paid in wages to | miners on properties that are not paying dividends that will pay. Of course the owners of such proper- ties will not submit to any exactions, and scores of such properties will probably be permanently aban- doned, because after they fill with water and the works decay there are few men so adventurous as to spend the money needed for pumping and equipment with no assurance that even then they will be permitted to continue prospecting for- expected profits. The gold output of the State will suffer, and many interests with it, but the loss must be borne with what patience can be commanded. — re- Russia has made one more move in settlement | of the government of Manchuria. In response to the concert of powers she has turned the government over to Chinese officials; but, on the other hand, she has strengthened her garrisons in all strategic points.
