Senator Savage Sees a Chance to En- courage Merchant Marine. CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA- TENTO, Jan. 20.—Senator Savage to-day ntroduced an amendment to the consti- tution relative to the exemption of ship- | ping from taxation. He proposes that all | éhips or shipping engaged in elther for- | etgn, or domestic navigation, or in the fisheries, shall be exempt from taxation. In discussing the measure Senator Sav- | ege satd: “The old law provides that all shipplng shall be taxed, the same as property. The | taxes collected from shipping under the 2 | ef money, but are sufficlent to retard the | bullding of vessels. By removing this tax from shipping it will have a tendency to build up the merchant marine on this coast. The constitutional amendment I offer is introduced at the request of the ship cwners of this coast. It does not in- terfere in the collecting of licenses. In Los Angeles County we have no power to tax ships that come from domestic ports, as they are taxed where they hail from. San Francisco, Tacoma and other places get the benefit of the tax, which should be pald to Los Angeles County. BILLS ARE RECOMMENDED. “ALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA- MENTO, Jan. 20.—The Judiciary Commit- tee of the Assembly held its first business gession to-day and recommended two bills for passage. An important matter before the committee was McCartney's divorce bill. The author appeared and said he wighed to make an addition to it. This proved to be of a novel nature. It is to the effect that in the case where a Judge deems the evidence warrants.a divorce he shall issue an interlocutory decree, but shall not issue a final decree until a year has clapsed. ~This will prevent Reno mar- riages., Assembly bills 157, relating to testa- mentary guardians, and 40, ulmnlm'h.g the method of attaching growing crops,!were reported favorably. Assembly bill 52, eliminating juries in certain cases in Jus- tices' courts, was unfavorably reported. The committee fixed mext Saturday as the time for hearing the club ladies of San Francisco and Oakland relative to the es- tablishment of a court for juveniles, CLERKS FOR JUSTICES. .CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA- MENTO, Jan. 20.—Senator Wolfe to-day introduced a bill for the appointment ot a Justice’s clerk and his assistants, pre- scribing their duties and compensation. It empowers the Supervisors In every city and county of more than 100,000 popu- lation to appoint a Justice’s clerk upon the written nomination and recommenda- tion of the Justices of Peace, who shall held office for four years. It also grants the clerk authority to appoint a cashier, one chief deputy clerk, two deputy clerks and one messenger, who shall hold office during the pleasure of the clerk. It fixes the salary of the clerk at $3000 per annum. THE FREE LIST The Territories Bill Meets Quick Disaster. Dispatch to The Call. Special ALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA- MENTO, Jan. 20.—It was a fore- gone conclusion that Senator San- ford's resolution asking that the Senators in Congress be instruct- ed to vote in favor of the omnibus state- hood bill would be lost. It came up under a special order of business this morning and although the Democrats and a few Republicans voiced their approval of the admission of New Mexico, Arizona and Oklahoma In the Union, the resolution failed to pass by a vote of 7 ayes to 26 noes. The Republicans in the Senate had cau- cused on the resolution last week and | were prepared to cast their votes against it. The originator of the resolution spoke earnestly in favor of it and had the as- sistance of Charles M. Shortridge, but the Senators had made up their minds and nothing could move them. Shortridge took his usual fling at the caucus. He was barred previous to the opening of the session because of certain opinions he had expressed. He later sent a coptrite let- ter in which he expressed himself as be- ing willing to stand by the actlon of the caucus. To-day he declined to do so, as he did not attend its last meeting. In speaking upon the resolution Sanford said in vart: There §s pending in the United States Sen- ate & bill providing for the admission of Ari- nator zona, New Mexico and Oklahoma into the Union States. There s no Question but that California would be greatly benefited by the admission of the Territories. In addition | to giving the Pacific Coast States ten more represantatives in Congress to pull for needeid legislation, it would greatly stimulate busi- ness, enterprise and development in New Mex- ico and Arizona, the bulk of which would come our way. Senator Perkins is fn favor of the proposition, as his letter indicates, and Sena- tor Bard seems to be opvosed to it, so the ob- tect of this resolution is to Instruct our Sena- tors to vote for justice and right and the local interests of this State There is no valid reason why the Territories <hould not be admitted. They all have tha population and taxable property to make them “iigible. Arizona, the least populous of all, bad in 1900 122,600 people, and to-day has a ropulation of ove ,000. " The matter of ad- mission fs left solely in the hands of Congress Would you say that a Territory of 300,004 population was eligible to admission and one of 160,000 was not? A majority of the Terri- torfes came in when they had a population of less than 100,000 Over nineteen Territories came fnto the Union when they had less pop- than Arizona, the least populous of the tories now knocking for admission. Senator Rowell of Fresno followed and sald he could not see the propriety of en- tering into a lengthy discussion of the statehood bill. He aiso could not see the propriety of advising or Instrugting our Senators, as they were on the Scene and were In a better position to determine whether the omnibus statehood bill should Le passed or defeated. He called atten- ticn to the fact that we learn by expe- rience that the hasty admission of States is fraught with much evil and he thought it not good policy to admit the Territories under discussion Into the Unfon. He said ke was opposed to the object of the reso- lution and would vote against it. Serator Shertridge spoke In favor of the resolution, as did Senator Tyrrell of Ne- vads. Chairman Hahn of the Committee on Federal Relations explained his stanad in the matter. He sald the Senators in Washington were intelligent men and | | { { you dizzy, restless, DR.
