WE have always had grave
doubts ~ to whether the Railway

Affected by the adoption of the new
Gonstitution. There are certain
provisions in the new organic law
relating to railways and taxation
which are ''fearfully and wonder
fully made" There is no doubt
that the campaign expenses Of the
antf-constitutional party were al
ways promptly met, but there is
equally little doubt that the funds
TO meet them came from the Mer-
chants' Protective Association of
San Francisco. There is no down.
right evidence that the railway
corporations in this State Interested

individuals connected with the
railways may have done SO in the
several counties, but the burden of
evidence is that they did SO as in
dividuals. In connection with
this view of the matter the follow
ing, from the San Francisco Gold
On Era, to say the least, is suggest
I've:
It transpires, now that the die is
cast, that the new Constitution did
not find vigorous opponent in the

alton discovered that under the
new instrument it would save the
greater portion of 500, 600 annual

illusions Of the Railway Company,
