A CALIFORNIA EXPOSITION
ITH the St. Louis Exposition just opening its gates it
is a little early to talk of the next one. Yet it must be
remembered that a World’s Fair does not grow ina
night and that months and years of hard work must precede its establishment. Politicians do not wait until the
national conventions are called to order before deciding on
their candidates. No sooner is one campaign finished before another is begun, and an exposition PamipsiaD must be
managed in the same way.
The Oakland Enquirer emphatically dinsdaves — and
rightly, too—that the next great exposition should be in
California and should mark the completion of the Panama
canal. This idea has already been suggested by the business
men of San Francisco and should be vigorously seconded
by every citizen of California. It is said that to every man
his opportunity comes. This is the opportunity of California.
Unless alksigns fail, the construction.of the canal will
prove a great benefit to California and will certainly attract
more general attention to the Pacific Coast than it has ever
yet received. An exposition to celebrate its completion
would be entirely appropriate and would certainly be successful. It should be a world’s fair, with especial attention
devoted to the countries bordering on the Pacific Ocean, the
countries more particularly benefited by the canal.
Several yeats will elapse before ships can sail from
ocean to ocean through the isthmus, and there will be time
ip which to do all necessary preliminary work, but the new
owners of the canal can be expected to push the excavation
work more vigorously than its predecessors and the time for
arranging details of a great fair will not prove too great.

The Threatened Sireet— Cap Sipike Avoided.
HE public will breathe easier now that the threatened
street car strike in San Francisco has been averted. In
the end wise counsels prevailed and the carmen receded from a radical position which was not sanctioned by
public opinion. In doing this they have met with a concession that must be commended as entirely just. While the
company retains the open shop and the right of summary
discharge, it agrees to recognize the union and not to discriminate against its members; no objection to employes joining
the union will be made, and the company officials agree to
confer with the president of the union in the matter of dis—
charges without adequate cause. This is fair. Men should
not be discharged without adequate cause, nor discriminated
against because they belong to a union, nor restricted in
their right to join organizations for their own protection. If
the agreement is kept in good faith, a long peace may be
looked for so far as the street railways of San Francisco are
concerned. _
An equitable adjustment can be permanent or saree:
tory only when the mutual obligations entered into are observed in entire goed faith, and the obligation of good faith
resting on the United Railroads is a large one. Public opinion held back from supporting the demands of the carmen
and viewed the threat of a strike with extreme disfavor, but
if the company fails to carry out its agreement with its em-—
ployes according to its spirit and letter, public sentiment will
promptly shift to the side of the aggrieved carmen. Keeping the agreement to the ear and breaking it to the heart will
not answer nor will it deceive.
The public will only back the company so long as it
. deals i in good faith, and this it has not always done either
with its employes or the public. In the past the carmen have
not received such treatment as to excite in them feelings of
either gratitude or loyalty to the corporation. They are
fairly well treated now because they have by organized effort
wrung fair treatment from the company. If they have gons
~ a trifle too far, the fact is not to be wondered at; having been
taken advantage of in their weakmess it is not strange that
they should push an advantage in their strength: «~
When both sides to a controversy approach a settlement
in a fair-spirit and with the honest intent of abiding by the!
decision there is small danger of a serious misunderstanding.
Many of the most serious labor disturbances in the country}:
have resulted from subterfuges, trickery and bad faith onthe '.4,, the well koown

Very Rich Boek.
A few days ago the TRANSCRIPT made
mention of avery rich strike being
made on the 600-!evel at the Marchi
mine. Asitis being opened up the
better it looks, and is now regarded
by conservative mining men as one
that has been made here’ in many
years. An immense piece of the ore,
which was taken out yesterday, was
brought to town, and it really was a
gight worth seeing. Throughout the
whole piece it seemed as if it contain
ed more gold and silver than quartz.
There ia no doubt whatever about very.
important developments belong made
as the work progresses. Said one of our
‘best minere here, to one of our reporters today : “The Marchie is destined
to be one of the greatest gold produc
@rs in this State, end the stockholders
promeyy is thoroughly opened up.”
