At the in- stigation of small bosses and irresponsible lightweight politicians the Speaker placed at the head of important Assembly com- mittees inexperienced and obscure mem- bers and deliberately ignored leading men of thesState who were returned to the Leg- islature by the people in rcognition of emi- nent public service. The insult was intended for the Assem- blymen who were ignored, but it goes to the great majority of taxpaying Republi- cans who voted to re-elect these Assem- blymen. Among the trled and true men who were selected by the bosses as objects of special derision are Joseph R. Kno: land and J. A. Bliss of Alameda, J. ¥ Atherton of Marin, W. 8. Melick of Los Angeles and G. G. Radcliff of Santa Cruz According to legislative precedent, to nothing of distinguist public v these stalwart Republican members we entitled to be assigned to the chairman- ships of important committees, but not one was given a leading place on any com mittee. | In order to gratify mean and narrow | prejudice because they would not live up | under the colors of Boss Kelly, John | Lynch, Jere Burke and Eddie Conroy to | the sugport of Pendleton for the Speaker- ship they were insulted and ignored. It is almost as certain, however, as day fol- lows night ‘that the people at the next election will return these Assemblymen to the Legislature by increased majorities. The appointment of Arthur G. Fisk to the chairmanship of the Ways and Means Committee is absurd and inexcusable. Even the bosses who have not reached a | degree of total depravity In_politics are inclined to apologize for the Speaker's se- l(_~m|nn and pass up the responsibility to ’(,‘n\‘ernor Gage, who is sald to have sig- nified a wish that a young man should be | chosen for the place.” Fisk is without leg- islative experience. He possesses no spe- cial capacity for the character of work | assigned to him. If Gage wants to take | the credit of Fisk's selection he will not | find any one anxious to deprive him of his - | laurels'in this line. | . The natural consequence of the blunder {In the appointment of Fisk will be to | transfer to the Senate Finance:.Commit- ee the important duties of handling the appropriation hiils. Precedent in legisla- tive affairs constitutes the only authority for giving to the Assembly the initiative in egislation to provide ways and means for I meeting the expense of State government. L SERVICES IN THE PAST EN Not Yet Reached the Degree of Total Depravity Apologize and Then Shift All the Blame to Governor Gage’s Shoulders. The Speaker of the Assembly ignored well established precedent in the formation of the Ways and Means Committee. In or- der to preserve the credit of the State the Senate mav be impelled to take the initiative {n financial legislation. The chickens which Governor Gage re- leased from his coop when he opened the fight in Pendleton’s behall will come back to roost in the executive office. The story is going the rounds to-night that Alden Anderson was slated for the Ways and Meansg Committee, but that a change was made in the programme at the suggestion of the Governor. This business of one branch of the State government interfer- ing with the affairs of another is any- | | thing but commendable, and is sure to| | produce bad results. The Governor in hi preparaticns to sup with the Assembl as now organized should procure a very long spoon, for one who sups with the Devil should be thus provided. Lieutenant Gevernor Neff avers that the attitude of Senators in the prolonged con- test for United States Senator had no ! bearing whatever on his judgment mak- jing up the standing committees of the Senate. He further asserts that there was no thought of ignoring the wishes of | Governor Gage and distinctly says |hl\[ Governor made no suggestion concerning the assignments of Senators to committee duty. | | | NATOR "FARMER " SMITH OF LOY AMNCGELES, WHO WAD BUPPOjED To BE A LAWYER SE £ CALL CARTOONIST'S ENTER SEMATOR GOAD IMPRESSION OF SOME OF THE STATESMEN.

Few assert that | | (chatramn), Feliz. County and Township Governments—McWade Brown of Webber, could be found who wouid the choice of Fisk for chairman th ..ays and Means Committee was an thing but the shameless carrying out a bargain and preparation for boss con- trol of the State's purse-strings. Noae but the bosses and their tools find ca for_satisfaction in the appointment of a new and untried member to the chair- of manship of the most important of all the | committees. It is significant that Broughton, the Los Angeles running mate of the Speake-, is made chairman of the Committee on Corporations, where cinch bills are made or stopped. The Committee on Com- merce and Navigation is headed by Brady of San neisco—"Colonel” Brady of the tenderloin district—and Kelly ruos his hands in glee. Franklin of San Francisco— own,” who sneezes when the boss gnuff and is proud to do it—is chairman of the Committee on wngrossment and En rollment. Numerous men are dis others in/the list of chair- inguished |chiefly for lack of fitness for anything f eral, and ia particular of the _léadership accorded them. A number of the ablest member -, the men who have made the best records in past sessions, were ignored by the Speaker. Melick gets no unimportant ¢ hing but places on three mmittees. Knowland, chairman last jon of the important Commerce and vigation Committee, is not even given a place upon it this time. Atherton_ of Marin is not placed on either the Dairies and Dairy Product: Committee or the State Prisons and Re formatory Institutions Committee though he was entitled to tae chalrmanship of one and membership on the othe Anderson of Solano 1 made chairman of the Committee on Commissions and Pub- lic Expenditures. The San Francisco delegation, Kelly's nucleus, got a chairmanship for each man and yet is not satisied. Collins is dis- gusted because he gets unimportant | chairmanship instead of iy's c© on.the Commerce and Navigation Com- mittee. Brown, Guilfoyle, Evatt, Hourigan and Henry say little, but contemplate with poorly concealed disgust the reward giv- en to Fisk and Brady for the services of the bunch. beth, Bauer, Treadweil and Knight have already quit training with the others and now that a new ele- ment of discord has arisen the ‘“solid fourteen” seems completely disrupted. The morning session was very brief. The joint resolution, introduced in tha Senate yesterday, thanking the members of the State Relief Committee for the Galveston sufferers, was introduced by Kelley and adopted. The report of tha Committes on Mileage was adopted. Ad- journment was taken 10 4 p. m. to permit the Speaker to fimish making out his standing committees. The special committee appointed to seg- regate the different portions of the Gov- ernor's message bresented its report at the afterncon kession.
