HE Examiner example is regarded as worthy Tof imitation by the Bulletin. The Examiner attacked Judge Sloss for his perfectly proper decision that the title to an office cannot be tried in an injunction suit. Mayor Schmitz, who has an in- telligent conception of judicial proceedings and de- sires that the powers which he claims to exercise un- der the charter shall have judicial sanction, followed the course pointed cut by Judge Sloss and has brought a quo warranto suit to try the title of the Board of Health, which was involved in tHe decision of Judge Sloss. The right of the Mayor to remove members of the boards created by the charter is in It is amorg the great powers conferred upon the executive of the city. If it be wrongly conferred and in violation of the constitution, the Mayor and the people should know it at once. The only way to know whether it is his right or not is by resort to the courts. The Mayor has taken that course. The Examiner abused one Judge for pointing out the way, and the Bulletin is- now abusing another be- cause that way is taken in his court. Judge Cook, as presiding Judge, has control of the quo warranto proceeding, which will validate or vitiate the title of the old Board of Health to its of- fice, and of course will determine the right of the Mayor to make vacancies by removal and fill them by appointment. Judge Cook can elect to try the case himself or can assign it to another Judge, or can call others to sit with him in the hearing. For doing or not doing any or either he is no more to be abused and charged with ulterior motives than was Judge Sloss for his obvigusly correct decision in the injunction case brought by the old Board of Health. Just why these two newspapers persist in this pecu- liar knocking of the courts is not plain. The Ex- aminer’s law department is in the habit of manufac- turing legal principles that are unknown in the science of the law, and when a court decision is not to its liking it appeals to itself, or to a mass-meeting, for a reversal. Human society is held together by the integrity of judicial courts. Public confidence in Judges is even more necessary than purity of the ballot. The gen- eral uprightness of American courts is the glory of the republic. Legal questions seem intricate to lay- men, who take no time for their study, and nothing is easier than for a designing and evil disposed news- paper to misrepresent the decisions of courts and interfere with that judicial independence and im- partiality which are necessary to the proper admin- istration of justice. It has been put on record by members of_the Ex- aminer’s party in this city that it has demanded in party conventions the defeat of certain men and the selection of certain others for nomination to judi- cial positions. One of the few things recently put to the credit of that party is its resistance to these de- mands, when assent would have created a judiciary representing the Examiner and not the people, In the matter of the current attack upon Judge Cook the parties to the action do not intend that the decision of the Supericr Court shall stand as the law of the case. Whatever the decision may be, an appeal will be taken to the Supreme Court, to the end that the finality may have the sanction of that bench. The issue affects, in one of its most impor- tant provisions, the fundamental law of San -Fran- issue. cisco, and the inconvenience of individuals and the | temporary interruption of official authority may well be borne with pagience, in order that the value of that part of the charter may be judicially determined. It must in fairness be said for the Mayor and for his new appointees and for the members of the old board that they have all shown 2 commendable de- sire to proceed decently and ip order in the matter, and whatever element of littleness of\spin't and de- sire to injure the courts may be in it is supplied en- tirely by the Bulletin and Examiner. It is sought to infuse a partisan spirit into the trial. If the issue be political a Republican has just as much right to ask that it be tried by a Republican Judge as a Democrat that it go to judgment before a court of his own faith. In this respect one Judge is just as truStworthy as another, and there is not an intelligent member of cither party in the city who doubts that any of our Superior Judges will give the case a fair trial, and that when a finality is reached in the Supreme Court it will deserve the respect of all good citizens, All the talk about “a juicy scandal” has for its mo- tive only a chronic desire to destroy public respect for the courts. This is a policy that is distinctly an- archistic and injurious to the legal and judicial sup- port of our institutions, and to the rights of person and property. Lawyers may have their own mo- tives about Judges and cases. Their obligations as officers of the court restrain them within . certain bounds. Newspapers are under no restraint but the sense and conscience of those who dictate their pol- icy, and if these be depraved society suffers in .no respect more keenly than when this irresponsibility is directed 2gainst the courts | ! THE NARROW GAGE ROAD. T is announced, in the Governor’s organ, that he | I has finished his private inquiry into his relations i to San Quentin affairs, and, finding himself not guilty, will proceed tc bring criminal and civil suits | against The/Call and Los Angeles Times. When the misconduct at the prison was first made public the Governor, in a signed statement, said that it did not concern him at all, but that he had perfect confidence in Warden Aguirre and demanded the broadest investigation of that official, confident that it would vindicate him. The Warden also demanded investigation. In those days investigation was sung | as a duet by the Governor and Warden, with chorus by the organs of the Governor. T‘lxe Prison Direct- ors offer a proper and broad road to an investiga- tion, but they have not moved, and the Governor has taken the matter up, has investigated on a nar- row road, behind closed doors, and announces no conclusion over his own signature, and his organs give no reasons for the finding which they say he has reached. It is perfectly apparent that the Governor was called into the case only as an official plumber, to hunt for the leaks through which information of the true condition of the prison escaped. - Believing that he had found them, lzst Sunday he soldered them with affidavits, He compelled persons connected officially with the priscn as subordinates of the War- den or Directors to make oath under duress that they had not given out any information and that they believed the prison was as pure as a cradle! The Governor is perfectly aware that this per- formance at plumbing is not an investigation. He knows that such an attempt to forestall testimony is a vain thing, and that his inquiry behind the door ap- pears to have been in his own interest, to sophisticate testimony in the suits he intends to bring for the re- pair of his own reputation. If there be crime in the conditions revealed by The Call the Governor made himself particeps criminis, we did not, and after or- dering himseif into the dock he can do his case no good by using his power as Governor to manufacture testimony. But he has added that to the prison in- dustries, when the law forbids any manufacture ex- cept jute sacks at that institution. 3 The testimony of the records which has been given to the public shows the forgery of bills and accounts, the manufacture, unlawfully, out of the State’s prop- erty, of articles which have been presented with an exceeding impartiality that has distributed them to the private homes of officials and resorts under le signe rouge. Bills paid by the State show a multi- tude of articles that are not prison supplies. The revelations make necessary a public investigation of the most searching character. This was admitted and the inquiry was demanded by the Governor and the Warden, but now both seek to block it with forestalling affidavits, secured under duress from per- sons without whose testimony they think nothing can be proved. N In this situation we beg to assure the Prison Di- rectors that if they proceed with an earnest investi- gation, intended to get at the facts and not to dodge them, we will furnish them with enough testimony to establish every material charge that has been made. Forged bills cannot be made to swear to affidavits that they are true bills, and the official solder ap- plied by the Governor to supposed leaks may have been wasted at the wrong place in the pipes. We anticipated this course on his part, and therefore we said that the accounts might be shuffled, the books substituted and the torch put to the prison itself, and yet we would present substantiating evidence to prove the charges. We repeat and affirm that of- fer, and the people want to know what the Prison Directors are going to do about it. The narrow Gage road is not the one for them to travel toward public confidence. Boston’s municipal printing establishment has been a failure, but Booker Washington's press at Tuskee- gee did $8000 worth of printing during the last col- lege year and cleared $700 for the school in doing it, and now the Bostonians are thinking of applying to the Alabama negroes for instruction as to how they did it. AGRICULTURE IN CALIFORNIA. ENSUS BULLETIN :No. 164 gives statis- ‘ tics relating to agriculture in California. It says:” “The farms of California, June 1, 1900, numbered 72,542, and had a value of $707,012,960. Of this amount '$77,468,000, or 10.9 per cent, repre- sents the value of buildings, and $630,444,960, or 89.1 per cent, the value of land and improvements other than buildings. On the same date the value of farm implements and machinery was $21,311,670, and that of livestock $67,303,325. These ‘values, added to that of farms, give $796,527,955, the total value of farm property.” The total-value of farm products for 1899 was $!3r,690,606, of which amount $36,324,804 represents of crops and forest products. The value of the total product for the year exceeded that of 1889 by $44,- 657,316, or 51.3 per cent. The percentage of gross income upon investment for 1899 was 14.8. In a review of the State generally from an agri- cultural -point of view the bulletin says that of the total area of 99,827,200 acres only 28,828,951 acres, or 28.9 per cent, are included in farms. The rate of in- crease in the number of farms by decades since 1850 15 given thus: Number of Number of Year. Farms. Acres. .

Seven counties show de- creases, but, with the exception of Colusa and Amador, whose losses are 43.4 and 20 per cent, re- spectively, they were all comparatively slight. The decrease in Colusa County was doubtless due to a change in boundary since 1890. The total area of farm land in the State is 34.5 per cent greater than in 180. In Tuolumne, San Francisco, Mono, Orange, Kern and Inyo counties the farm area more than doubled. Of the decreases shown the largest were for Colusa and San Bernardino counties.” The growth of the orchard industry during the de- cade is one of the marvels of the development of the State. Within that period the ndmber of orchard trees increased from 7,824892 to 28,138471. The value of the orchard product was not reported in the census of 1800, but in 1879 it was $2,017,314, while in 1899 it amounted to $14,526,786, being a sixfold gain in twenty years, It is noted that while in most States of the Union | | for the summer and the other class stays at home. the value of animal products and $95,365,712 the value | |the_\.n'bm'l population is increasing faster than that living on farms, the reverse is the case in California. The report says: “From 1850 to 1900 the popula- | tion of California increased from 92,507 to 1,483,053, | or sixteenfold, while the number of farms increased :from 872 to 72,542, or over eightyfold. In other | words, from 1850 to 1900 the number of farms, and hence the number of persons operating them as own- ers or tenants, increased faster than the population. This statement applies also to the decades, 1850 to 1860, 1870 to 1880, and 1890 to 1900.” These figures make but a formal presentation of our agricultural prosperity. Still they attest the value of our rural industries and the wide field that is open for their expansion. In no other land on the globe can the farmer live so pleasantly, work so agreeably at all seasons and reap such sure and such large rewards. That much at least is made clear in /the plain figures of the bulletin. l Having postponed her exposition for a year, St. Louis is thinking of various ways to fill in the time, and as one means of doing it has started a movement to get the Government to deepen the Mississippi River so ag to make St. Louis a seaport to which the largest ocean vessels can come, and make Chicago CAMBRIDGE HONORS COMMISSIONER REID . EFORE the excitements of the campaign be- envious, TAXING B gin and the thoughts of the peaple are ab- sorbed in the struggle of rival parties and the PUELIC BONDS. personal fortunes of candidates, attention should be .given to the proposed constitutional amendment which provides that “all bonds hereafter issued by the State of California, or by any county, city and county, or municipal corporation, or district (includ- ing school, reclamation and irrigation districts), within such State, shall be free and exempt from tax- ation.” The amendmgnt has been under consideration a long time, and further argument is hardly needed upon it now. The League of €alifornia Municipali- | ties, which represents seventy-five of the incorpor- afed cities and towns of the State, stands responsible | for the passage of the amendment by the Legisla-- ture, and is now actively working to procure its adoption by the people. The support of the league gives assurance that the measure is in the interest of municipalities. As a matter of fact it is in the in- terest of the whole State and of all the people of the State. The taxation of public bonds is a handicap upon public improvements, and seriously interferes with the advancing welfare of the commonwealth and all its counties and cities. The taxation of public bonds is designed to add to .the revenues of the State, but as a matter of fact very little revenue is derived from it because most of* the bonds are held abroad and cannot be reached by California Tax Collectors. Despite the fact that they thus escape taxation, they are sold subject to the tax and have to bear a rate of interest sufficient to protect the purchaser against it. If the interest rate be not high enough for that purpose the bonds have to be sold at a discount. The consequence is that we not only lose the tax, but we also lose the amount of interest paid to cover the tax. No State or nation can tax its own bonds to ad- vantage. The United States does not attempt to do so, neither should the State of California. The current number of California Municipalities says: “The estifnated total amount of public bonds outstanding is in round numbers $16,000,000, one- half of this amount being the bonds of municipalities, the remainder being the bonds of the State, counties and school districts. Of this amount less than $1,000,000 is listed for taxation purposes; that is to say, private investors, residents of this State, prob- ably hold less than one-sixteenth of our public bonds. The annual interest charge on these bonds is approximately $750,000. This charge has to be met by taxation, and our taxpayers are contributing the much larger portion of this sum to the enrichment of Eastern investors.” That is the situation. By exempting the from taxation we would place our own investors upon equal terms with outside investors. We would thus be enabled to sell the bonds to better advan- tage, and at the same time retain the bonds within the State. That would mean a saving of the interest charges that are now sent abroad. It would, more- over, lighten the rate of interest that municipalities, | counties and districts have to pay. In short, argu- bonds ment for the measure is overwhelming. The amendment is known as Senate constitutional | amendment No. 3. Make a note of it. Work for it. Vote for it. THE HOLIDAY SEAEON. ITH the coming of the holiday season the | Wurban population of the country divides itself into two classes; one class goes away | The first class exclaims, “The city is deserted!” The second class looks around at the crowd of visitors | and excursionists and says, “The city is crowded!” It is thus evident that the two classes live in differ- ent worlds and see different things or else that one | of the two lies—under a mistake. It would be foolish to debate which of the two sets of citizens is the wiser or which has the better time. Heis a wise man who leaves San Francisco to make himself acquainted with the varied beauties and delights of the country, whether by seashore or in the mountains, and a good time awaits him if he have any capacity whatever for enjoyment either of scenery, sport, fruit, flowers or hospitality. On the other hand he is equally wise who decides to spend his Jummer leisure in San Francisco and make him- self acquainted with his family and neighbors by secking such pleasures as are to be found here and in the immediate suburbs, The chief thing in the enjoyment of the holiday season is to rid the mind of carking cares and the excitements and the worry of business. That free- dom can be obtained in the far off mountains, and it can be obtained also at home. It matters not therefore to which class a man belongs, he will be a true holiday maker if he rejoices in the glow of the summer and remembers that a man should work to live and not live to work. There are times when a rest is not merely a recreation, but a genuine re- creation of the worn fibers and tissues of the body and the faculties of the mind. Vacation is more than a social fad. It is something that men and women, whether they stay in town or go abroad, should try to live up to. ——— About the only thing the Filipinos have asked Uncle Sam for is better money and more of it, so they seem to be assimilating pretty fast.

The public orator, John Edwin Sandys, referred to Reld’s previous official visit to England and his return on the equally swuspicious occasion of the coronatien. Reld, sald the orator, had also distin- guished himself as Embassador of the United States to France and as the editor of “Talleyrand’'s Memoirs,” while for the last thirty years he had ably conducted the New York Tribune, with which he had initiated and long continued a fund for giving the boon of fresh country air to poor children. Reid embodied the human- ity, kindly feeling and friendship of his country, and was thus entitled to a hearty welcome not only for his own sake but also for that of the great trans-Atlan- tic republic which he so worthily repre- sented. Others who received the honorary de- gree were the Duke of Argyll, the Maha- rajahs of Gwallor and Kolapoor, Baron Hayashi, the Japanese Minister to Great Britain; the Right Hon. Sir Richard Col- lins, who was arbitrator on the Venezue- lan boundary question, and is a former Lord Justice of Appeals; the Right Hon.

PRESIDENT AND HANNA DEFER THEIR QUARREL CALL BUREAU, 1406 G STREET, N. W., WASHINGTON,; June 10.—It is be- lieved that the quarrel between the Presi- dent and Senator Hanna has been de- ferred for the present. It may come, but not now. Senator Hanna had another interview with President Roosevelt to-day about the charges which have been made against Lkis friends, Federal officeholders of Cleve- iand, for undue activity in primary poli- tics The situation had become so seri- ous, threatening the friendly relations of the President and the chairman of the Republican National Committee, that Col- lector Leach, one of the accused officlals, came to Washington and made a denial of the charges to Civil Service Commis- sioner Garfleld. It was after Collector Leach had made these denials to Garfield that Senator Hanna went to the White House. Tha interview lasted for nearly an hour, gnd when Senator Hanna came away he satd that the charges which had been made by Representative Burton were ridicu- lous. He could not understand what was the matter with Burton, and said the lat- ter had no ground for complaint. He also said that there would be no investigation and that the whole thing was too trivial to occupy the attention of the President. Hanna said that it would bepdifficult to craw the line as to where Federal offi- cials should refrain from taking an inter- est In public affairs. It would be ridicu- lous to say that because a man held a Federal office he must cease to take part in the primaries of his party, and no President has ever yet been able to make a harc and fast rule. Senator Hanna in- Gicated that there was danger of a sever- ance of the pleasant relations between himself and thé President. Friends of Burton, who is still absent in Virginia, took a different view. They say that Burton has to make good his threat to file formal charges against the Hanna officials or be in a ridiculous position. Scnator Hanna's enemies In Ohio are seeking to keep the feud alive and have been sending many messages to Burton, urging him to press for an investigatioa. Their activity bids fair to defeat their ernds, because the minute the President finds out that other politicians are using the incident to further their own ends he is likely to drop the whole thing. ————— Snappy Campaign for Johnson.
