"A Lesson In City Government.

SAN FRANo1sco, March 5.-The Board of Su-
The affairs Of the municipality have come to a a
dead lock for want Of funds. The bill recently
passed by the Legislature restricts the board TO
u monthly expenditure OF one-twentieth of the
annual revenue holding members of the city
government aud their bondsmen personally
responsible for any overdraft.
As consequence, nearly every dollar is ex-
hausted for the current month. The fire de-
partment has not money enough on hand to
buy feed for the horses. No resolution can go
into print. because no authorization can be
passed for its payment owing to the exhaustion
Of the advertising fund. The hospital and
aims house have but 5000 to run on for the cur
rent month. Some legislation will probably be
sought to relieve the city government.

LEGISLATIVE ITEMS.

The following Is the protest presented by the
Republican members of the House against the
passage Of the apportionment bill. and which
the House declined to receive. and returned to
them:
We wish to enter on record our objection to
the bill which Is to re-apportfon the number Of
Senators and Representatives, and the manner
in which 1t WAS declared passed in the House.
While son of us favor the propc stion to di-
minish the number OF members of the Legisa
ture, and consider the present number as too
large. we all object to the newly contemplated
apportionment. rs being founded on partisan
reasons and influences rather than on IT al
the constitution. We also deny that said bill
conslitutionaly passed this House. .inasmuch
as The journal will show that many of the most
material VOTES on said bill showed no quorum
of this House. as prescribed by article 80 of the
constitution. We therefore protest against the
idea that said bill should even become or be
considered a law OF this State.
Tho only business transacted YESTERDAY. IN
