Under the present provisjions of the codes an educational institution ocan- not accept a gift or bequest. It was the intent of the law to prevent certain eleemosynary institutions from securing possession of large tracts of land and sums of money and hold them with no benefit to any one, and so when it was desired to endow the university with all the Stanford millions it was found to be Impossible to do so under the laws of the State. It was about a year ago | when the Australian Stanford first | broached the subject of adding his mi lions to those of his brother. It had al- ways been Governor Stanford’s university, and a year ago it was de- cided to bring the two fortunes to- gether. Senator Morehouse’s first bill was in- | troduced in the Senate toward the lat- | ter part of January. It amended the code so as to allow educational institu- tions to accept gifts and grants and | | bequests in the same manner as cor- | porations organized for other purposes. | A second bill provided for the forma tion of a trust by which funds so be- queathed or granted could becontrolled. A third bill, introduced this afternoon, provides that no charitable, benevolent or educational institution shall be al- lowed to accept more than one-third of | an estate when there is living a parent, husband, wife or any legitimate de- | scendant; should there be no descend- ant, however, as in the case of Gov- | ernor Stanford’s brother, the entire sum can be turned over. This was to pre- vent any hardships which might pass snld:-r the provisions of the previous ills. The original bill came up before the Judiciary Committeé of the Senate this evening. and was reported with the rec- ommendation that it do pass. It will be reported back to-morrow The pro- vsion which makes it apply to the Palo Alto University says: “Any scientific or literary corporation or association as such or in the name of such institu- tion, may receive property, real or per- sonal, by gift, grant, devise or be- | quest,” for its own benefit.

No woman is fit to marry who has any unhealthy condition of the special struc- ture most intimately concerned in wifehood and motherhood.

By a half hour’s work on the official typewriter and a sweep of the gubernatorial pen he repudiated contracts made in good faith by his predecessor in office and. as Governor and chairman of the State Board of Examiners, disallowed $69.000 in claims against the State for the ad- vertising of the constitutional amend- ments upon which the people were called to vote at the late election. For the specified time previous to the last election a number of the news- papers of the State published all of the. constitutional amendments that were to be voted upon by the people. A large number ' of the publications were authorized by Governor Budd and a large number were printed without any authorization at all. All of these claims have lately come before the Board of Examiners, and whether au- thorized or not, the whole lot were to- day disallowed. Governor Gage bases his action upon a unique construction of the law in the case. Sections 1194 and 1195 of the Political Code originally provided that a copy of the ballots to be used at the next following election and copies of all the amendments to be voted upon should be published in a number of the newspapers of the State having general circulation. In 1893 section 1194 was so amended that the Secretary of State was required to have copies of the ballot printed and sent to every elector in the State instead of publishing them in the newspapers, but section 1195, re- lating to the amendments, was not touched, however, and in passing upon the claims of that year Governor Budd decided that the amendment of the first section affected in no way the latter.. Governor Gage, however, de- cided .differently. If section 1194 was amended, figures he, so, of course, was section 1195. This at any rate is his excuse, but his hand shows in his rec- ommendation to the Legislature that when it passes-upon the claims each bill be sent back to him separately for his vise. - Such a suggestion. smells rather of .politics than. ¥ His message on that matter “ywhich |.the County GAGE REPUDIATES DEBTS FOR POLITICS AND NOT ECONOMY Vetoes the Accounts of Newspapers for State Publications.

Many of these claims are for publications made without any authorization: therefor, these claimants relying upon the Feneroslty of the State to pay for the publication'made. The oth- er claimants rely upon the fact that my distinguished predecessor authorized the publications. The authorizations were made-apparently under the statute enti- tled ““An act to provide for the submis- sion of proposed amendments to the con- stitution of the State of California to the qualifiéd_electors for their approval,” ap- proved March 7, 1883.

Those Who Have Used It Declare It to Be the Most Remarkable Invigorant Ever Produced for Man, Woman or Child. An inventive genius of Cincinnati, Ohio, has patented and placed on the market a Bath Cabinet that is of great ihterest to the public, not only the sick and de tated, but also those enjoying heaith.

Another physi- clan of Chicago, Dr. John C. Wright, f lowed Dr. Eaton's example, moved West, and devotes his entire time to selling these Cabinets. Many others are doing wise. ml‘»ieunidf-ods of remarkable letters have been written the inventors from those wno have used the Cabinet, two of which re- ferring to Rheumatism and La Grippe, Will be interesting to those who suffer from these dread maladies. G. M. Laf- ferty, Covington, Ky., writes: Was com- pelled to quit business a year ago, being prostrated by rheumatism, when your Cabinet came. Two weeks' use of it entirely cured me, and have never had a twinge since. ~My doctor was much astenished and will_recommend them. Mrs. S. S. Noteman, Hood River, Ore., writes that her nelghbor used the Bath Cabinet for a severe case of la grippe and cured herself entirely in two days. Another neighbor cured ec- zema of many vears' standing, and her little girl of measles. A. B. Strickland, Bloomington, Ildaho, writes that the Bath Cabinet did him more good in one week than two years' doctoring, and en- tirely cured him of catarrh, gravel, kid- ney trouble and dropsy, with which he had been long afflicted.

Patton and the delegation that has come up “Pacific’ Ocean and International Ex- osition” in 1901, got the bills they -brought with them introduced in the Assembly this afternoon. They were offered out of order by Assemblyman Cobb of San Francisco and referred at once to the Committees on Municipal Corporaticns and Ways and Means. The first bill, which went to‘the Mu- nicipal Corporations Committee, pro- vides that every county, city or city and county is empowered to appropriate from the general fund for the purpose of advancing and maintaining their in- terests by exhibit at the “Pacific Ocean and International Exposition,” to be held in San Francisco in 1901, such sums of money as may be determined. the necessary cash counties and cities may include the expcsition fund in the tax Rvies of the different counties, pro- three fiscal years 1899-1800, 1900-1901 and 1901-1902. The intent of the bill is to give every county in the State an opportunity to come into the scheme and participate in the expesition to the extent of their resources. The second bill offered asks the State itself to do its share toward the con- summation of the stupendous project. | It asks outright for an appropriation of $500,000 and calls upon the Governor to appoint within thirty days after the passage of the act fifteen commission- ers, who shall be known as the “Pacific Ocean and International Exposition Commission.” The commission shall have charge and control of all expendi- tures of money appropriated by the State and the erection of all buildings and maintaining the exposition. Each commissioner shall give a bond of $20,- 000 for the faithful perfermance of his duties, each bond to be approved by the Governor. They shall receive no compensation for their services, and able men in the State who will serve willingly at the price. The last bill went to the Ways and Means Committee, which, it is said, will 'be unanimous in giving it favor- able recommendation. both Senate and Assembly met jointly to-day after the Senatorial ballot and talked the matter over with Mr. Patton and Supervisor Lackmann, who told them just what the promoters of the exposition want. Every member of the two delegations, Republican and Demo- crat, gave his vote heartily to stand be- hind the scheme and see it through to a successful issue. —— Money for the Printer. CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA- (ENTO, Feb. 10.—Assembly bill 670, by Valentine, -which. apflmgfl&tu $75.000 for the maintenance of the State printing of- fice, was brought up on its m{rd reading Charles L. Patton says there are 20,000 | The bill further provides that to raise | vided that the amount so collected shall | be appropriated one-third in each of the | and final pagsage in the Assembly this afternoon and passed under suspension of the rules. - It “will be immediately sent to the Benate and an endeavor will be made to get it through in time to pay off ;y:el?nnting office help on the first of the JUNKETING TRIPS WILL BE THE RULE NOW CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA- MENTO, Feb. 10.—A delegation from the ‘Assembly Committee on Ways and Means left this morning on a junketing trip through the entire State, to be gone prob- ably for the better part of the next week, and to-morrow morning the Committee on Public Buildings will leave almost in iis entirety for San Francisco, where it will examine the Affiliated Colleges and other public buildings in that city belonging to the State. The committee will also go to Berkeley to inspect the State University and'to look over the site of the improve- ments proposed at that place. To-morrow night it will take the train for Ione, where it will be met on Monday morning by the Committee on State Prisons and Reformatories. Both of the committees are considering bills relating to the needs of the Preston Reform School here to secure an appropriation of $500,- | at that town, and their trip is wWith these 000 to help out in the big project for a | measures in iew. The Ways and Means Committee, which_left to-day, proposes also to drop in on Ione and then will pro- ceed to the Whittier Reform School in the souihirn part of the State. Néxt week's mileage bills bid ‘fair to stack up to a considerable figure. Every committeeman gets 10 cents a 'mile going and coming. Of course, the distances are fixed by the statutes, but the statutes are generous in thése matters, and there is generally left a fat bit of profit. Assembly- man Melick this morning tried to amend the statutes and effect more or less econ- omy by a simple resolution. He offered one, which provided that hereafter on Jjunketing trips members and the accom- panying clerks should be allowed only their actual traveling expenses, providing that the entire expense did not exceed 10 cents per mile. It also required junketing committeemen to hand in with their ex- pense claims itemized accounts of every cent spent. When it came to a vote the entire House landed on it, and it did not take a minute to beat it beyond recogni- tign. : & ———— e ADVERTISEMENTS.
