We denounce the efforts of the Republican na- tional administration to injure the growing and important beet sugar industry of our State by un- equal and unjust tariff arrangements entered into at the dictation of the sugar trust and designed for its advantage. Leaving to the courts of the United States the interpretatio tion, we nevertheless are in favor of securing to the inhabitants of our insular possessions the same personal and property rights as are guaran- teed to the inhabitants of the several States by the constitution, and of according to them the same measure of civil and political liberty as it has been the practice of our nation to grant to the inhabitants of the territories thereof, taking care, however, that the final settlement of the Philippine problem shall be such that the United States.shall be freed from the existing danger of ‘*an énormdus Orientel immigration therefrom.

We favor the construction of Government ves- sels in the Government’s navy yards, and e pledge our candidates for Congress to use every effort to secure the immediate construction of such n vessel at the Mare Island Navy Yard. We favor the establishment of a State Free La- bor Bureau in connection with the State Bureaun “of Labor Statistics, to the end that the laboreér seeking employment may be furnished with re- liable information df sources of employment witha out cost. We recommend the amendment of the act relat- ing to the employment of State police for railroad and steamboat corporations, so that the privilege accorded corporations to employ special police for ‘the enforcement of order shall not include the right to use an armed force under the pay of a private corporation in cases of difficulties which may arise between employers and their employes. chasing State supplies, partly or in whole, manu- factured in State prisons, reformatories or asy- lums, and to prevent this practice we demand that such laws shall be enacted that the union label must necessarily be on all goods purchased by the State. / We favor constitutional amendment No. 14, which provides for local option in the use of bal. lot machines in’' the cities and counties of this State, as we believe it would tend to improve the conduct of elections.

He gave up that position in; 18% to 2o to Tacoma and take charge of the Evening News, in which -he had’ acquired a half interest. The, hard times of 1893° brought about 2 disagreement as to the internal man- agement of the paper and Lane drew out, after losing practically everything he had put into the business. His policy and attitude toward the employes of the paper at that time led to his being made an honorary member of the local typo- graphical union. While living in Tacoma Lane met and married Miss Anna Wintermute .of Chi- cago, who has borne him one son, Sidney, now four years of age. From Tacoma | Lane returned to San Francisco'and be- | gan the practice of his profession, at which he began to attract attention as a successful lawyer. - He was among the first to take up the fight against the corrupt bossism in this city and was identified with all move- ments following in favor of good govern- | ment. He was one of the first advocates of the "Australian ballot law, and was a member of the celebrated and useful Com- mittee of One- Hundred, which- drew the new charter.

The waterways of the State, being the natural distributing arteries of commerce, are of the first importance to the citizens. We demand of Con- sress a fulfillment of, its obligation to the State to maintain our navigable waters in fhe best navi- sable condition, and.that our Congressmen exert their utmost efiorts to have sufficient appropria- tions made for such purposes, and further demand that after such appropriations are secured they see that the same are actually used for the purposes for which they are made. We favor legislation providing for a system of permanent highway construction. Under existing laws over $2,000,000 is expended annually upon our roads, chiefly in making temporary repairs. We believe that a portion of the money annually raised for road purposes should be used for per= manent highway construction. ‘We favor liberal appropriations for the main- tenance of State and district agricultural fairs. We denounce Assembly constitutional amend- ' ment No. 28, by, which it is proposed to take from municipalities and counties the control of water works, lighting systems, street raliroads, or any public utility ‘whatever, and to vest in a State .commissien to be appointed by the Governor, the sole right to fix rates charged for public service. We favor the placing of all public appoint- - ments, State, county and municipal, which are not administrative in their' nature, upon the compe- titive merit: basis, and we strictly advocate the passage by the Legislature of such enactments and the adoption of such constitutional amend- ment as will be necessary to asecomplish fully this reform. We believe that =11 public service corporations should bear their proportionate share of taxation, and that they should not be permitted to have one value for the purpose of fixing rates and another for the purpose of taxation. We believe: the most important question . now before the people of this State to be the assess- ment 2nd taxation of corporate property, includ- The fgpilure properly to assess this character of property is. a erying .evil, which throws upon the owners of real estate and the farming community undue and unjust burdens. We condemn the action of the Republican ma- jority of the State Board of Equalization in not assessing the railroad property in proportion to the nssessments imposed upon the small property holder. Realizing that the ultimate welfare of our com- monwealth depends uvon the education -of its people, we favor the careful development of our public school system and the enactment of a prac- ticable compulsory education law. We commend the officers of the University of California for the wise administration of the in- creased appropriations’ voted the university by the last Legislature, particularly in their promo- tion. of the investizations in dairying, irrigation and forestry: in the assistance rendered in the de- struction of the peach moth, the grasshopper and other pests, the development of the farmers’ insti- tutes, the organizing of the College of Commerce, and the extension of university education through- out the State; and we pledge the nominees of our party to provide for thé growing needs and func- tions of the university from permanent sources of revenue.

Of the mining industries of this State, that of petrolenm mining, althouzh in its infancy, has alone become one of our greatestwealth producing resources, nnd we commend the courage and in- dustry displayed by the petroleum miners of Cali- fornia.. We recognize our indebtedness to them for the remarkable development of this industry, and urge the defeat of all lezislation having for its object the discouragement of the bona fide miner for petroleum or other mineral. We favor the creation by the meneral Govern- ment of a deparitment of mines and mining, the head of which shall be a member of the Cabinet. We favor continued liberal appropriations by " the general and State governments for the build- ing and maintenance of barriers for the purpose of restraining the debris from mines, and to pro- tect the navizgable streams of the State. We rejoice at the passage of a national irriga- tion act. It was framed by a Democratic Repre- sentative and supported by Democratic votes in Dboth Houses as a distinet party measure, in the face. of the opgosition of the most conspicuous Republican leaders in Congress. We demand a much’ larger appropriation for this purpose in the early future. - We declare that the remainder of the public _domain must be saved for the benefit of the Amer- ican people, whose heritage it is. Under existing laws it is rapidly passing into the hands of pri- vate syndicates and corporations. ‘We declare that the storage of flood waters and the preservation of forests is the foremost eco- nomic question in Californian to-day. The early #olution of this mighty problem is vital to the continued growth and prosperity of the commonw wealth. & To this end we recommend the retention by the State of all denuded forest lands acqmired by means of delinquent tax sales, and the purchase of other such lands by State authority under proper legal regnlations. We are opposed to the private monopoly of natural streams. We declare that the ownership of water for irrigation should vest in the user, We favor the creation of comprehensive public works for the storage of flood waters, for the dis- tribution of irrigation supplies and for the drain- age of lands subject to overfiow.

On leaving St. Vincent’s young Dockweiler studied engineering and surveying pre- paratory -to studying law. In October, 1889, he was admitted to the bar.

Judge J. K. Law-of Merced, who was nominated for Chief Justice of the Su- preme Court, is well-kncwn to the bar of this State. -His fame as a jurist is equal to his fame for honesty and in- tegrity. Judge Law was born in South Carolina in 1841, His father was a lawyer and he studied law under his parent’s guidance. At 21 years of age he was ad- mitted to practice and subsequently formed a partnership with his father. In 1869 Judge Law came to California and for a time he taught school. He resumed the practice of law and continued to do o for eighteen years in Merced County. Shortly ‘after i’lls arrival in Merced Judge Law was elected District Attor- ney. He served a term and refused a renognination. In 189, without his solicita- .tion, he was unanimously nominated for Superior Judge by the county conven- tion and was elected. Despite his objee- tion, Judge Law was nominated for. a second term and was elected. In 1896 he Jvas again elected and held office until 900, when, -at the solicitation. of old clients, he resigned from the bench to 0ok after important litigation. He is now engaged in the practice of his pro- fession in the county of Merced. \ ———— Successes of Major Gett. Major William A.
