Later he had is- nett wanted to know if money had been rin’s te; that the railroad is not engaged in making Senators, that Green’s brought it apparently as an incident that General Barnes was one of the company lawyers and had recently obtained p: for ‘a clerk. This was a neat attemp t to on, but I doubt its ef- ing Burns a little bit. He was not rat- tled, and the committee made no attempt to rattle him. They let him off gent and soon. They did not jar him with di Grant money which Dan Cole gave to Jilson. Siskiyou County is in the Sena- torial district which Laird was elected to represent. Laird’s conduct in voting for Burns surprises many of his con- stituents. McLAUGHLIN'S BLUFF THAT DIDNT WORK CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA- MENTO, Cal., Jan. 23.~Major McLaugh- lin has evidently been delegated to bring Assemblyman George Radcliff of Sapja Cruz info the Burns camp if he has to use a club to do it. He has so far tried everything from moral suasion to out and out hold-up, with the only result that Radcliff is still voting for Grant. His latest attempt is more far reaching and decidedly more complex than any that have come before it, and involves the Seaside City’s hopes of military glory as well as two or waree of its public officials. As was well known to McLaughlin, Rad- property it wanted to offer to the State tary purposes. It would further agree to lay necessary water pipes, do the grading, provide light- ing and everything else necessary to a model camp of instruction. Radcliff was informed that ex-District Attorney Lind- say would draught the bill.

They called for a meeting of the Alameda County dele- gation and went before it this evening to air their troubles. They do not know exactly the best way to break into the law, but have finally decided to ask for a revision. The major part of the officlals wish more deputies, while some think the work and com- pensation do not go hand in hand.

The twenty-eighth ballot in joint assembly to-day did not present a single break or variation in the line. Burns has not receded from his programme to call a caucus as soon as conditions are favorable for obtain- Ing the consent ~¢ members to termin- ate the struggle in that fashion. As the cont justment by the caucus plan diminishes. The followers of ant, Bulla and Barnes are determined to fight the bat- tie in the open. Burns bel 2s that he h the key to the snuzffinnd has resolved to defy the Legislature and the State. His suppor earnestnes; or prolong the ives for colonel” will win le until the time the Legislature to adjourn. id to be unyielding and will stand by Burns until the latter con- sents to retire. resentful and defiant attitude of is provoking indignation among nservative members of the Legisla- ture, who believe that the time has come for respecting the sentiments of the people of California. Whatever the touts may say among themselves in gecret they put on a confident front in the open, asserting that Burns’' firm grasp of the situation will compel mem- bers to yield. There is no remonstrance against Burns from the people at home. The malils and the wires carry daily messages to Senators end Assemblymen urging them to fight let up in the tide of | 3 | a caucus before mas st progresses the prospect of ad- | Burns to the finish. Burns’ managers care very little what the people think or say. “The public be damned” is their motto in this fight. Reports are brought to the “colonel” from his friends who went to San Francisco Saturday evening and re- turned Sunday evening that a large majority of the business men of the metropolis favor the election of Burns. Reports of this kind are circulated to brace up the members from the coun- try who are giving their support to Burns. To-night the friends of Burns claim that their candidate will be able to get ny days. One of his followers said: “The Republicans have made a mistake in not going into cau- cus. Caucuses are a tradition with the Republican party and they should be adhered to. Had they been in the pres- ent instance the dirty linen of the party would not have been washed in public to the delectation of the Democrats.” It was further claimed that Burns had twelve or fifteen votes that would come to him in secret caucus that he could not get in the open. The Grant men repelled caucus overtures as they suspected that Burns had some mem- bers pledged for secret work who could | not be persuaded to publicly proclaim their preference for the “‘colonel.” The talk of the touts about the tra- ditions of the Republican party and the cool assumption that the party should be run in the interest of Burns furnish a sample of the political impudence of the Burns crowd. It is on a par with the plea that the “organization” is for Burns. Barnes, Bulla, Grant and other candidates are regarded as interlopers in the Republican party.

In other words Mr. Works is going to effect immunity from pictured libel by recourse to the law rather than do bodily harm to the offending artist. The law he has introduced is not original. It is copied from one introduced at the last session of the New York Legislature, and there were those at that session unkind enough to call it a very ordinary type of *cinch bill.”" Whether it was_or not it cost the ublishers of New York City in the neigh- orhood of $100,000 to beat it, which they finally did. Of course coming from Mr. Works it would be hardly fair to let the same impression get out with regard to his pristine effort. Mr. Works is 26 and quite old enough to appreciate that the artist, at least, had his excuse, but it is probable that Mr. Works does not want the fact advertised. R st S Kickers From Alameda. CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA- MENTO, Jan. 23.—For some time past the county officials and more particu- larly those of Alameda County have been dissatisfied with the county gov- ernment law and last night and to-day saw an influx of Alameda County offi- exhibit _and appropriation; Governor of Caljfornia_be requested to forward to the President of the United States, the Senate and House of Representatives and our Senators and members of Congress a certified copy of these resolutions. File work and the introduction of bills required the greater part of the . Nothing at all®was done in the morning, as the joint ballot of course came on at noon and the House did not convene until just a_quarter before that hour. Valentine's bill, creating a Paris expo- sitlon board and appropriating $150,000 for exhibit purposes, came up for flnal pas- sage and was again amended by its au- thor so that the appropriation would read $120,000 instead of $150.000, and was sent back to the State printer.

After a long wrangle over bills on their third reading, which was finally declared out of order, adjournment was taken to the regular hour to-morrow. -~ TO AVOID A VOTING MACHINE SCANDAL CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA- MENTO, Jan. 28.—If the bill which Senator Stratton of Oakland will intro- duce in the Senate to-morrow becomes a law there will be little danger that this Legislature wiil leave any voting- machine scandal behind it to make it odorous in history. The exposure of the scheme that was being patched to work a bill through the present Legislature which would put theusands of dollars in the pockets of the owners of the Christensen voting machine has put the decent element in the Senate and Assembly on its guard, and Senator Stratton’s bill is designed to utterly preclude a possibility of the consummation of the crooked scheme that was proposed. Mr. Stratton’s proposition 1s to cre. the Santa Fe Company desired to build from Mojave around the Tehachapi H+O40404040 : STILL THE BALLOT IS UNCHANGED CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRAMENTO, Jan. 23.—The smiles of Barnes, the happy confidence of Bulla and the boastings of the Burns phalanx, that brought sunlight into Saturday’s murky fog and made the Golden Eagle bar resound to the echo, have all gone for nothing. Mon- day’s. ballot is past and the Grant forces are lined up as solidly as éver. The advertised break has not come. No one in this mob of can- didates has shed so much as a vote, nor is there promise that any of the elimination of competition. Senator Morehouse made the poi them will do so. The molting season has evidently not set in. It only required one ballot to demonstrate to-day that others would be useless. When Jilson failed to answer Barnes to the call of his name, and Arnerich and Kelsey stayed fast for Burns, and Chynoweth and the other Grant adherents all yelled Grant, Senator Davis of Amador came to the fore and said plainly that it was simply a waste of time to sit there and ballot the afternoon away when committee work was almost knee deep, and every one agreed with him and adjournment was taken to tc-morrow noon, when another try will be made. The candidates who have anticipations are apparently not much put to it that there were no developments. They have the satisfaction of knowing that for the present if they can’t win no one can, and they are content to play a waiting game. The ballot of to-day resulted as follows: BARNES ESTEE BULLA BURNS FELTON CHO40+0+04040+0+0+0+ 040+ 040+ 0404040404040+ 04040+ $S404040+ O 4O4THIICHTHOIOIOHOHDI0 404D+ O+ 04040404040 +O+0+0+T+04 nt : : : : 2 3 : : : | VAL.BLATZ BREWING CO.
