So inoffensive did it appear on the surface and so quietly and naturally was it un- folded before the unseeing eyes of the te politic ainst whom its hid- that not one dis- @ ised against it. It was presented in the form of the fol- | low resolutfon offered by Frank H.

It also well known that Maguire is ves popular in San Francisco and that t popularity does not extend to other portions of the State, because, among other things, of the statesman’s views on the single tax question. All of | these things were considered by the framer of the resolution introduced by Mr. Gould.

All of these votes are accredited to counties outside of San Francisco | where Maguire has the least strength. | In this city, where Maguire has the | strongest following, the convention del- egation, under the proposed apportion- | ment, will number seven less than it | would if the Budd vote had been taken as the basis of representation. A few | illustrations will serve to show the workings of the scheme brought into existence by those Democrats who would like to see Maguire out of the gubernatorial race. | In Alameda County 6786 votes were east for Budd and 8394 for Bryan. This being so, Alameda County will have 43 votes in the convention, where it woumJ have had but 35 if the Budd vote had: been taken as a basis of representation, 1 n Los Angeles County Budd received | 9 votes and Bryan 16,045. The coun- | ty will now be entitled to eighty-one | seats in the convention where it would | re had but thirty-nine. San Diego will have twenty-one delegates instead of ten. Sacramento will have twenty- five instead of seventeen. Fresno will ave twenty instead of 13. Santa Clara | have twenty-seven instead of | votes for Budd and 80,649 for Bryan. | The city will therefore be entitled to 154 delegates instead of 161. While the friends of Congressman | Maguire admit that they have permit- | ted themselves to be outgeneraled, they are entirely in the dark as to the identity of the lucky politician who is slated as the prospective recipient of | the increased representation in the in-‘ terior counties. They all agree that | Gould is practically out of the running, | and profess to believe that he was se- | lected merely as the vehicle for the un- | loading of the scheme on the unsuspect- | ing State Committee. In a recent ‘con- | versation with the writer Mr. Gould de- | clared his intention to keep out of the fight for the nomination, giving as his reason the fact that he could not af- ford, in a financial sense, to engage in a contest where the chances of success were extremely problematical. He added, however, that should such a condition arise Where a majority of the convention demanded that he accept the nomination at their hands, he would probably not refuse. Some of the political guessers profess to see in the situation an attempt to promote the candidacy of H. M. La Rue, the present Railroad Commission- er from Sacramento County. His gubernatorial aspirations are well known, and it might be that with Ma- guire out of the way he would be able to hold his own with Lieutenant-Gov- ernor Jeter, State Senator Seawell, Mayor Phelan or any of the others who are at present considered to be on the list of possibilities. The forecasters are also considering the possibility of Gov- ernor Budd being a candidate for re- election, in spite of all assertions to the ntrary. They point to the fact that ould is at present an office-holder un- | der the State by reason of t favor of the Governor, a fact that might bc con- sidered as a reason wh;" Gould would not lend himself to any scheme that did not meet with the approval of his pa- tron. On the other hand. it is not for- gotten that the reconciliation between the Governor and Gould is only a com- paratively recent occurrence. Revenge is sweet, and after all is said and done, politicians are but human. Following will be found a list of counties showing the number of dele- gates that would have been accredited te each if the Budd vote had been taken as the basis of apportionment, and also the number of delegates that will be accredited to each under the Bryan apportionment: Countles.

It may not be many days before the Board of Supervisors will be in the midst of a sensational investigation. The fuse that may lead to the expected explosion was- lighted yesterday oy the judiciary committee of the board, when it adopted the following report to be submitted to the Supervisors on Monday next: In the communication of the City and County Attorney of April 11, 1893, in reference to Mis- sion Creek and Channel street land this officer reports that prior to the rendition of the juds- ment in favor of the city and county in the case of the city and county of San Francisco vs. John Center et al, ‘‘the city lost a part of said lands in the case of James W.

The British bark Inveramsy was to have sailed yesterday for England with a load of wheat, but her anchors were fouled and it was not until late in the afternoon that they could be raised. ‘When the tug Reliance did finally getthem up it was found that a stray anchor and fifty fathoms of ehain weré attached to them. The stray mud hook was landed and the Inveramsy will go to sea to-day. The yacht Regina broke away from her moorings yesterday and went ashore at Belvedere. She was got off at high water and was found to be only slightly dam- aged. The California Navigation Company ap- plied to the Harbor Commissioners yes- terday for the use of the old Sausalito ferry slip and also the old chief wharfin- ger's office when both are vacated. The SI{S is to be used by the Ban Joaquin Valley road when the new 20-knot steam- | er Hugh J.

Some months ago the Cooks, John R., the father, and W. E. and John 8. Cook, his sons, leased to Hervey Lindley of Los Angeles and a syndicate represent- | ed by him the saw mill, logging rullrnud; d other property of the Klamath River | Lumber and Improvement Company, | with a three years' option for the pur- chase of the same. he Cooks were in debt, and for that reason as well as for the fact that the lumber market was very weak, owing to low prices, the advent of Mr. Lindley and his company, the Poke- gama Sugar Pine Lumber Company, was | hailed as a blessing. But after the Poke- | gama people had expended about §75,000 in making various ne iry improvements, and after the price of lumber rose in the | market, certain parties from the East of- | ed to buy the property from the Cooks. | This was the beginning of friction be- tween the Cooks and Mr. Lindley, and af- fairs were brought to a climax by the | Cooks, who retook forcible possessfon of the mill and the railway with a gang of | armed men. After an ineffectual appeal to the Superior Court of Siskivou County the Pokegama Company appealed to the United States Circuit Court in this city. | Judge Morrow issued a restrafning order | prohibiting the Cooks from interfering | with the Pokegama people in operating | the works and otherwise enjoying the | property under the lease. The Cooks re- sisted the process of the court, having been advised to that action by H. B. Cli- people, who gave the opinion that the re- | straining order did not require the Cooks to give up ession. Thereupon the Cooks and a sc of employes were ar- rested for contempt. Yesterday morning Judge Morrow deliv- red an oral decision in the contempt ase. There were present E. S. Pilsbury attorney for the Pokegama Company, an Judge 8. C. Denson, Fred Stratton and H. B. Gillis_for the Klamath Company. Judge Morrow began by saying that he | had already announced the opinion enter- tained by him with regard to the restrain- ing order. In his opinion that order was proper, and the only question before the court was whether the order has been violated. The order was a lawful one and | disobedience to it was contempt. If tue court had ever had any doubt in this case it would be relieved from that doubt by the proceedings that had taken place in a similar case entitled. The People of the State of New York against John Lyman King. King was a political boss, and when the injunction was served upon him he said to the officers, “Injunctions don't go here.

The court in that case | indicated that the injunctive order was | erroneous, but the court very pointedly | and clearly pointed out that the court had | the power to issue an injunction, and it | therefore devolved upon the parties to | obey it. An appeal was taken to the Su- | preme Court, and the Supreme Court sus- | tained the decision of the lower court that even if the order was erroneous it was not void and should be obeyed. = “T think the violation has been gross,’ continued Judge Morrow, “and under ordi- hary circumstances . the punishment would be severe. 1 shall, however, take | into consideration the fact that there were | proceedings in the State court which had | decided that the respondents were not in contempt in taking possession of the property. I shall also take in considera- tion the fact that when (after March 29) the respondents were advised by their counsel to comply with the order, they showed no glsposmon to disobey the re- ining _order. x“'r“ll tles?l‘e it to be distinctly understood that the punishment which I am about to inflict 18 no criterion of what I would inflict in other cases, or if there should be any further contempt in this matter. The punishment will be inflicted not only for tfie purpose of warning those parties, but all other partles having dealings with courts not to be guilty of this offense.” The court then fined J. R. Cook, W. E. Cook, John S. Cook, H. B. Gillis, George W. Marsh, George Norris, J. McEnerney and C. Stock $50 each, together with costs, with the alternative of thirty days’ im- risonment. The remalning employes ':vere fined their pro rata of the costs, the whole amount of costs being $700. W. Baxter was discharged and Attorney Topscott was let off on the ground that he was the junior member of the law firm which gave the disastrous advice to the Cooks to take possession of the property in deflance of the restraining order and was therefore not responsible. property in evidence in the sult before the Superior Court demand investigation as to whether the same arose from negligence or design or both. There must be some remedy for actlons of this character which result in loss of property to the city and county. Your committee, therefore, respectfuily re- ports in favor of requesting the City and Coun- ty Attorney to forward to the board as soon as practicable a full detalled statement of all the proceedings had in this litigation, who represented the parties to the suit, before which department of the Superior Court the case was tried and decided and all other mat- ters which will enable the board to determine what other or further action can be taken to assert the city's title to this property and to set aside this apparently collusive determina- tion of the litigation. The la referred to as having been lost to the city “from negligence or design, or both,” is bounded by Brannan, Ninth, New Channel streets and Potrero avenue, and is valued at about $20,000. The case was tried before Judge Troutt ‘"‘gmxxj“dgmem was rendered on December 30, Jobn H. Du then City Attorney, and E. B. Willilams, Assistant City Attorney. The_attorneys for plaintiff were Horace W. Philbrook, George T. Wright and the plaintiff. When City Attorney Creswell took office, a_few days after the judgment was rendered, he appealed the case to the Supreme Court, but despite the most earnest and persistent efforts made by him he failed to secure a new trial, owing to the fatal error committed in the first instance of not putting in evidence to prove the title of the city. There is now only one way by which the case can be reopened, and that is by showing fraud in the proceedings - had before the Superior Court. At the time the case was declded there was considerable talk of collusion, but nothing of a tangible nature was ever brought to light. It is possible that when the matter comes before the Board of Supervisors on the report of the Judiclary Committee, an investigation may be or- dered of the whole affair in the hope that something may be developed that will g0 to show collusion. Should this be the case, City Attorney Creswell will in all probabllity be ordered to have the case reopened. Mr. Creswell declared yester- day that if he could secure a new trial of —————ee e ADVERTISEMENTS.

But we have long since shown that Dyspepsia is curable, nor is it such a difficult matter as it first appears. The trouble with Dyspeptics is that they are continually dieting, starving themselves, or going to opposite ex- tremes or else deluging the already overburdened stomach with “bitters,” “after dinner pills,” etc., which invaria- bly increase the difficulty even if in some cases they do give a slight tem- porary relief. Such treatment of the stomach simply makes matters worse. What the stomach wants is a rest. Now how can the stomach become rested, recuperated and at the same time the body nourished and sustained? This is the great secret and this is also the secret of the uniform success of Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets. This is a comparatively new remedy, but its success and popularity leave no doubt as to its merits. The tablets will digest the food any- way, regardless of condition of stom- ach. The sufferer from dyspepsia, accord- ing to directions, is to eat an abund- ance of good, wholesome food and use | the tablets before and after each meal | and the result will be that the food will be digested no matter how bad your dyspepsia may be, because as be- fore stated, the tablets will digest the food even if the stomach is wholly To illustrate our meaning plainly, if you take 1800 grains of meat, eggs or ordinary food and place it in a temperature of 98 degrees, and put with it one of Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets it will digest the meat or eggs almost as perfectly as if the meat was en- closed within the stomach. The stomach may be ever so weak | yet these tablets will perform the work of digestion and the body and brain will be properly nourished and at the same time a radical, lasting cure of dyspepsia will be made, because the much abused stomach will be given, to someé extent, a much needed rest. Your druggist will tell you that of the many remedies advertised to cure dyspepsia none of them has given so complete and general Dyspepsia Tablets and not least in im. portance in these hard times is the fact that they are also the cheapest and give the most good for the least money.
