THE PEOPLE'S PROTEST
Los Angeles has seen many im
promptu mass meetings in the past, but
none that in point of numbers, enthusi- ,
asm and intelligent interest could be
considered as approaching the gather
ing in behalf of San Pedro harbor at the
northeast corner of the county court
house last evening. The friends of a free
harbor, a people's harbor, have abund- .
ant reason to feel deeply gratified and
highly encouraged with the popular
outpouring which, in spite of the efforts |
of Southern Pacific sympathizers to di- '
vert the people to a counter demonstra
tion, proved in a magnificent way the
loyalty of the citizens of Los Angeles '
and vicinity to the site that in the vig
orous language of one of the speakers
"is the choice of the government engi
neers, the congressional representa
tives from this section, the people and
God Almighty.
The value of last night's San Pedro
harbor meeting lies not alone in its
size and enthusiasm, but also in its
representative character. It was in the
fullest sense of the term an assemblage
of the people inspired by impersonal
motives, pervaded by the spirit of pa
triotism, untrammeled and unintlu
enced by the designs of a remorseless
monopoly. People of every kind, con
dition and occupation, and of differing
beliefs regarding well-nigh every other
subject of human consideration last
evening showed that they could be in
hearty accord on that question of tran
scendent importance to this part of the
state —the building of a deep sea harbor
at San Pedro.
This meeting, significant of the in
tense interest of the masses in the cause
of San Pedro, should lend great moral
assistance to the efforts of Senator
White to secure in the senate the appro
priations needed to complete the inner
harbor at San Pedro and to undertake
the work preliminary to the construc
tion of the outer harbor at the same
place. Although the claims of San
Pedro have been ably and repeatedly
presented and have had the benefit of
repeated endorsement by government
•xperts, and it would seem as though all
had been done that could be, the report
of last evening's demonstration, judi
ciously used, cannot fail to emphasize
all that has gone before. It came as a
fitting and timely protest against the
under-handed attempt to secure, in de
fiance of the popular will, public money
With which to benefit strictly private
Interests to the everlasting detriment
•f those of the people.
WHERE HIS "PULL" COMES IN
Collis P. Huntington is demonstrating
that he is a gentleman of wonderful
potency in the congressional lobby.
'jLt the very beginning of the session
Be loomed up as a controlling factor
and gave evidence of his "pull" with
Speaker Beed, by securing through the
•gar the appointment on the Pacific I
railroads and the river and harbor
committees, congressmen not "un
friendly" to the interests he stands for.
•The effect of his manipulation of Tom
(teed Is seen in the recommendation by
those committees of bills in consonance
With his views—the Pacific railroads
committee reporting a bill that provides
for refunding the Union and Central
Pacific railroads' indebtedness on terms
vastly better for the companies than
those contained in the Reilly bill de
feated in the last session of congress,
and the committee on rivers and har
borfl cutting down the appropriation for
lon Pedro harbor to a beggarly $50,000
Instead of the sum that there was every
season to expect would be recom
mended.
It is not probable that Mr. Hunting
tost has exercised this marvelous in
fluence solely because of his charming
personality. The average person will
Ijie impressed with the belief that some
V substantia! reason exists for the sub
■: '4BXfs*»s*v cf She Beea house te the
wishes of the lobbyist par excellence
of the day. The reason may possibly
be found in the following recent Wash
ington special to the St. Louis Republic:
The campaign of Huntington and his
associate millionaires has been con
ducted here with great adroitness. They
began work promptly as soon as It be
came known that the Republicans
would control both branches of con
gress. The Republican leaders have
been in close communication with Mr.
Huntington. There will be no effort
made to pass his bill during this ses
sion of congress, but as an evidence
of good faith the committee of both
houses will report favorably the meas
ure that has been drafted by Mr. Hun
tington's lobbyists. The understand
ing then is that at the short session of
congress, after the presidential elec
tion, the bills will be forced through
both houses.
It is whispered here that, in consider
ation of this service from the Repub
lican party, Mr. Huntington is to in
vest the enormous sum of $1,000,000 in
the Republican presidential campaign.
One would think that with the manu
facturers to draw on and the trusts
and the corporate wealth of the coun
try generally, the Republican party
would not rind it necessary to mortgage
itself to C. P. Huntington. But those
who are in a position to know assure
the Republic correspondent that the
facts herein stated are absolutely cor
rect.
Huntington looks upon the present
congress as the opportunity of a life-
time. He has felt the pulse of the Re
publican body and has dealt directly
with the leaders. The Democrats have
not been taken into consideration. Per
haps a few of them in the senate-
Sir. Brice. for instance—have been con
sulted and can be relied upon to help
the scheme along. It is believed that in
a general way the new funding scheme
will involve extension, of the debt for
100 years at Hi per cent. This is Hun
tington's own offer and unless all the
signs are awry the Republicans of con
gress will obey the magnate's bidding.
DESTROYING PAVED STREETS
Sixteen years ago, before there was a
paved street in Los Angeles. Hon. Ab
bot Kinney advocated the policy of pav
ing no street until a sewer subway had
been constructed under it. in which all
pipes, wires, etc., for public or quasi
public service could be placed. Mr.
Kinney showed that the cost of such a
subw ay was somew hat greater than an
ordinary main sewer, but that the city
could obtain its advantage in two
ways. First, by never having a street
torn up again, as is now the case, over
and over again; and. second, in obtain
ing rentals from the various corpora
tions using them. Mr. Kinney showed
the great economy to the corporations
in the use of such a subway over pres
ent methods of tearing up and repairing
paved streets. A rate of compensation
to the city could have been arranged
for the use of the subways by telegraph
and telephone wires and water and gas,
and perhaps oil pipes, that would ex
tinguish bonds issued for the purpose
of constructing such subways in twelve
years.
The following extract from the re
cently issued work of Albert Shaw
shows how this is done in the great
city of Paris:
"As I have already remarked, the
Paris sewers were designed with ref
erence to their use as general subways.
Supported along the walls near the top
of the gallery one finds not only the
water pipes of the double supply sys
tem, but also the telegraph and tele
phone wires; the pneumatic tubes
which facilitate the collection and dis
tribution of letters; the pipes of the
compressed air service that furnishes
motive power for small users and that
maintains a system of pneumatic
clocks, and perhaps, other
kinds of pipes or wires."
Is it too late to start this kind of pol
icy here.
An incident deeply significant of the
danger possible to a good cause when
the latter has associated with it an un
popular personality or newspaper, oc
curred at last night's free harbor meet
ing, when a resolution was proposed,
thanking The Herald, the San Francis
co Examiner, the San Francisco Call,
the Los Angeles Record and the Los
Angeles Times for their championship
of the San Pedro harbor, elicited a
mighty chorus of requests, coming from
all parts of the vast throng, that the
last-named paper be eliminated from
the list. Of course Chairman Hazard
could not submit the resolution to be
voted on by sections, so the Times was
unanimously thanked along with the
other papers, the hundreds protesting
against the idea of considering the
Times a subject for gratitude not desir
ing to mar the unanimity of the occas
ion by voting against the resolution
as a whole. It is true that only the un
thinking would be prejudiced against
San Pedro harbor because the Times is
in advocacy of it, but it is also lament
ably true that the vote of unthinking
men weigh as much as that of the most
profound philosopher. San Pedro may
well appeal to be saved from some of its
friends.
Animated by commendable public
spirit, the edition of the Labor World,
the official organ of the Los Angeles
county council of labor, issued this
week's edition of the World yesterday,
one day In advance of the regular day
of publication, in order to contribute
to the success of last evening's free
harbor meeting. This issue of the
World represents the views of or
ganized labor on the harbor matter In
a vigorous and clear manner. Its slo
gan is, "San Pedro or bust."
The passage of the Cuban resolution
calling on the President to requst of
Spain the recognition of the Independ
eence of Cuba will establish the present
congress in history as a body endowed
with a cheek beside which that possess
ed by all the mules ever enlisted in the
United States army is sickly and timed.
General Harrison was bound to have
a second term even if he had to take it
in matrimony.
The Czarina's Ukase on Tobacco
There has been a nutter in Russian
court circles anent the order of the
czarina commanding that none of her
ladies-in-waiting are to smoke cigar
ettes. Russian ladies are inveterate
smokers, and the dowager czarina is
said to bave favored the habit herself.
The young empress, however, has a
perfect detestation of seeing a cigar
ette in a woman's mouth, and, in fact,
also objects to the habit of smoking
in men. Indeed since his marriage, hi?
imperial majesty has not been nearly
so devoted to the well known meer
schaum pipe, so familiar to all the
Russian court. The czarina inherits
her abhorrence of tobacco from her
mother, the lamented Princess Alice.—

CLEWS' WEEKLY LETTER
NEW YORK. April 4—As indicated
in our advices of last week, April opens
With a better feeling In the Wall street
markets. The currency sent Into the
country for the usual April settlements
is returning, and as the banks now see
nothing to prevent a steady and c om
paratively easy course of the money
market until the fall crop movement
sets In there is more disposition to make
time loans and at rates satisfactory to
the stock houses. A slight Hurry has
been caused by the close approach ol
the rates of foreign exchange to tin
point admitting of exports of gold, but
that is a movement only natural to the
season, and if it should c ause some with
drawal of legal tenders from the bank:
to procure gold from the treasury, the
present condition of the reserves and
the influx of money from the Interior
may be trusted to prevent any appreci
able scarcity of loanable funds. The
discount market may quite possibly ex
hibit some appearance of closeness tor
some weeks or even months to come, lot
in certain industries there is an over
production and a carrying of large
stocks of goods which induces caution
towards paper coming from these spe
cific sources. This, however, is by no
means a general feature in relation to
mercantile paper; it rather concerns
industrial than mercantile credits: and
this feeling among the bankers is per
haps interpreted for much more than
it really means, and for that reason may
be expected soon to abate. So long,
however, as it continues it « ill be a fac
tor favoring a preference for loans cot
stock collaterals and will therefor.- tend
to keep down the rate on cailTOoney.
To this extent the prospect as to tin
supply of money for stock exchange
purposes is favorable within the range
of the next few mouths.
We cannot but repeat the opinion pre
viously expressed In these advices that
the feeling at present prevailing at this
center is not a fair reflection of the
tone of business in the country at large-.
For the moment this city, as the chief
center of industrial capital has certain
adverse circumstances to contend
against, and though those conditio,is
may call for prudence and caution, yet
there is no reason to anticipate really
serious consequences from them, and
they may be expected to work out their
own remedy through enforcing a better
adjustment between demand and sup
ply in certain industrial staples. The
sooner these exceptional conditions arc
viewed with a discriminating judgment
the better for all parties, it leads to
needless distrust when inferences
against the w hole business of the coun
try are drawn from conditions which
apply only In a restricted locality and
to a few interests— though the Interests
may he important ones. Sue h misjudge
ments, however, cannot long prevail,
and no serious mistake w ill be made in
expecting an early recovery from the
exaggerated pessimism which just now
prevails to some extent in this city.
Even pessimism, however, has its
compensations; for it sometimes
helps to compel desirable results not
otherwise procurable. This sort of
effect is now apparent in the mitigation
of stubborn obstacles to the settle
ment of Insolvencies among the rail
roads. The Northern Pacific recon
struction may now be regarded as a
virtually accomplished fact. The set
tlement of the long pending disputes
between the government and the sub
sidized Pacific lines also appears to be
in a fair way towards adjustment.
These long pending derangements have
long had a seriously depressing effect
upon railroad investments, not only in
this country but still more in Europe.
They have also had the effect of keep
ing stagnant a large mass of securities
which bad previously been actively
dealt in at the stock exchange; and
this must be regarded as one of the
chief causes of the protracted depres
sion in speculative transactions. Tho
prospect of these settlements may
therefore be regarded as a hopeful fea
ture in approaching conditions.
The unexpectedly outspoken protest
of the Republican state conventions
on the silver question has a most en
couraging effect upon confidence
among the investing classes. Instead
of the evasions from party leaders that
had been feared, there has been the
plainest declaration for the mainten
ance of the gold standard as against
attacks from the silver faction. This
explieltness is all that could be de
sired, and it strikes the country as fat
better than was hoped for. The im
portance of this attitude lies in the- fact
that it shows a great, positive progress
in public opinion in favor of the sole
gold standard and against any further
commitments t». silver. There can be
no backsliding from the position thus
taken; and in this very important re
spect the country finds assurance and
safety. This assurance is immeasura
bly valuable, and cannot fail to have a
most important effect upon confidence
in every ramification of finance, it
now seems a fair conclusion that a
sound foundation stone has been laid
in public- opinion for the structure of
our future currency system. This
first great step being thus virtually
won. we can afford to deliberate pa
tiently and wisely in determining what
Shall be the remaining contributions
towards the reconstruction of our mon
etary system upon a sound, broad,
elastic and permanent basis. Tin
house committee on currency and
banking are working earnestly and in
telligently towards maturing an ac
ceptable measure of currency reform.
The various measures before them are
each directed towards methods which
would afford a vast improvement upon
existing arrangements; but the differ
ences in detail may prevent an agree
ment during the present session; and
both in congress and out there are prej
udices and misconceptions so stub
born that it may be the wisest course
to allow a further period of public dis
cussion lor their removal. Indeed,
among those best acquainted with the
present immature state of public opin
ion on the question, the feeling appears
to be that the country is not yet ripe
for a thoroughly regulated settlement.
Taking a broad outlook on the ques
tions and the dislocations that have
been so deeply unsettling confidence,
we see on all sides the evidences of a
steady and cautious approach towards
a remedial adjustment. There is a
more intelligent comprehension of the
situation, its causes and its remedies,
among the people at large than existed
but a few months ago. The country is
not unreasonably impatient for a solu
tion. It appreciates the complexity of
the questions involved: and so long as
it is satisfied that progress is being
made on tlie right line, it would prefer
carerul deliberation to a hasty and in
complete readjustment. The point has
been reached . however, at which a
great revival of conHdahee is inevitable
both at home and abroad; the principle
of the gold basis has been Irrevocably
affirmed, and all that remains to be
done is the formulation of the details
as to the minor forms of money. That
satisfies Wall street for the present;
and must soon show Its results in a
restoration of financial activities.
The iatest returns of railroad earn
ings leave no room for question aa to
the improving condition of tlieir
finances and the growing activity of
general business in the country at
large. Tiie following statement shows
some of the gains of net earnings of
important lines in the month of Feb
ruary:
Increase over ISO,")—Chicago. Burling
ton and Quincy, $C 55,400; Milwaukee
and St. Paul. $144,200; Louisville and
Nashville $122,000; Atchison system.

--000; Buffalo, Rochester and Pittsburg.
$44.i)nii: Baltimore and Ohio. 120,000;
lowa Central. $80,000.
These are facts that must have their
effect upon the market for securities.

the "Apotheosis of Alfred the Little."
