and there is perhaps no subject of equal
Importance on which there are greater
incongruities than on the point, what
rights are vested, so as to be beyond
the reach of legislative action, and
what are within its proper and regular
control. He also says that in the term
contracts, are not included rights or
rather interests growing out of meas
ures of public policy. And the Supreme
Court has said that the contracts de-
signed to be protected by the tenth sec
ton of the first article of the .constitu-
tion are contracts by which certain de-
finite, fixed, private rights of property
are vested, as distinguished from rights
growing out of measures, or engage
ments adopted or undertaken by the
body polite or State government, for
the benefit of all, and which from the
necessity Of the case and, according to
universal understanding are to be va
ried or discontinued as the public good
shall require.
Having sought in this article to pre-
sent the law respecting political vested
rights succeeding article will be an
inquiry what vested rights have been
acquired by private corporations in
this State and how far said corpora
tions are subject to Legislative action
and control.

The SAN Diego World, in its last

District Judge James Mccoy took it to
task, and he in time is quite severely
handled. The World plants itself
firmly on its right as an Independent
Journal to support any man by whose
election it supposes the good of the
country will be subserved. Ii this
opposition of the World to party
trammel is founded on principle, and
not on price, If it is unbought, it is
significant of good era coming. Mr..
McNealy may be the fittest person for
the position to which he aspires; he
ought to be, he is Democrat, and NJ
complaint seems to be made against
him except his youth-but, when a
party journal, especially one located
in a small country town, and conse-
quently dependant upon party patron
age, dares to bolt the dictum of party
from principle, Il hope is born that the
pristine purity and virtue will return
to politics. The HERALD while it
will support Democracy and Democra-
