The Bill is directed against the system adopt- ed by the Banning Company, & Los Angeles corporation, which owns Santa Catalina istand and has made of it one of the most famol Pleasure resorts in the West. The same com- Jany also controls the Wilmington Transparta- tion Company, which has several steamers in the trade between Sun Pedro and Avalon, the oniy town of Santa Catalina Island. = For Vears the Banning Company has had a monop- oly upon the business of the island; in fact has controlled it absolutely. It has had the same control over (he transportation facilities between the island and the malnland. So jealousiy has it guarded its control of this busine: that it has employed men to patrol the beach at or near Avalon to prevent the landing Of any persons who came there vessels than those of the aboard any oth Wilmington Transportation Company. Of per- sons who came to the island in thelr own the pany demanded a landing fee the amount of the fare from San Pedro.

Senator Hubbell's bill §s intended to glye the members of south- ern yachting clubs the right to land on the jsland to secure provisions and water and for all other legal purposes.

Assemblyman Prescotf was the next speaker against the treaty. He spoke in part as follows : 1 oppose the Cuban treaty on the ground that Cuba herself has agreed to abide by the provisions of our protective tariff. Had she desired to benefit by the fruits of our legisla- tion she would have come In as an American State. She declined to do that. Now let her take the consequences. Since she has denied to us the ilege of regulating her internal affairs, since we cannot raise her slave class to our plane, we are under no obligation to put our free labor on a level with hers “Do you fear our representatives at Washington?' asked Dunlap. “It looks to me as if some one had gotten on both sides of this question and was depend- ing on the action of this Assembly to get him out of the hole.” McConnell gpoke for the resolution on the ground that the treaty would injure a growing industry of the northern part of the State. Pann of Ventura spoke for the beet su- gar industry, and said that the treaty threatened it. . “In my county we are largely depen- dent on the growing of beets and the production of sugar therefrom,” he said. “We are held accoumtable here for the protection of that industry, which is now of such great tmportance and is becom- ing more so. 1 ani for the resolution.” Allen of San Frangisco opposed the resolution, saving - that Senator Perkins knew what the State needéd. Johnison made a speech, which left the members in doubt as to where he stood. He said he avould vote for the resolution, but advised the members to study the matter carefully before voting on it. Nothing had been said showing just how the treaty would injure California, he sald. This counyry owed Cuba nothing, though. It had Houred out its blood and $485,000,000 in money to free her and was not now obliged to maintain her.

Upon the desk of every member was a small vase holding a pink carna- tion, the favorite flower of the martyred President. Over the rostrum was a pic- ture of McKinley framed in laurel and surmounted by a shield and flags. - Governor Pardee laid aside his official | duties to attend the ceremonies. He was escorted to a seat beside Lieutenant Gov- ernor Anderson by Senators Leavitt and Bunkers. Later, upon motion of Senator Lukens, he was extended the privileges of the Senate. Lukens then f{ntroduced the following resolution: Whereas, The 20th day of January, 1903, fs the anniversary of the birth of William McKinley; be it Resolved, That on this day we commemorate the many virtues of Willlam McKinley that made him illustrious in war and in statesman- ship matchless, and that when the Senate ad- Journs it do §0 out of respect to his memory. Senator Lukens delivered an eloquent address in support of his resolution. I took occasion to pay a tribute to Presi- dent McKinley as a man, a soldler, a statesman and a President. He recalled the many kindly deeds of McKinley and | Aawelt at length upon the great loss the country sustained by his untimely taking off. He spoke in part as follows: TRIBUTE TO HONORED DEAD. The rodding flowers that have been placed in this Senate chamber by the kindly fore- thought of some attentive person are a fit and pleasing reminder of the tribute that ought to be paid at this time to the memory of the loved William McKinley. This day we turn the sixtieth year since the fortunate that was marked by the birth of Willlam McKin- ley His life throughout was devoted to the whole pedple and the manner of his death unit them all forever in appreciation and love for him.

Perhaps no man ever was exalted to the profound position of President of the United States that has exceeded in purity of character bim whom we ember with honor and sor- row to-day. m McKinley realized that the foundation of the republic was the purity of the American home.

Upon motion of Lukens, Governor Pardee w. accorded the.privileges of the Senate was invited to say something on the sub- ject before the Senate.
