TIE INCOMING ADMINISTRATION.

Governor George C. Perkins is about to
enter upon his administration, and ne does
so under favorable auspices. He has earned
and secured the confidence and good opin-
ion of the people of California by an I'M
blemished, active, useful and successful
business career. He is a man who has
made many and warm friends He has
the reputation of being courageous, honest,
truthful, loyal, and firm. In the appoint
ments made by him so far, if common re-
port may be trusted, he has exhibited
commendable determination to make fit.
ness the first and weightiest consideration.
The gentlemen who have been selected
for his own official assistants are known
to be specially competent and trust
worthy. He has for State officers men of
high character and proved capacity. All
things considered, therefore, Governor
Perkins is making as promising beginning
of his administration as the most captious
critic could desire. He will of course find
plenty Of difficulties in his path as he goes
on, and he need not hope to escape ami
madversion. But the disposition to ex-
pect good of him is general, and the
opinion prevails that he has made up his
mind to do his best, faithfully and con-
scientiously. He will have many oppor-
tunities to ingratiate himself with the
people, and he will avail himself of
them, because it is natural for
him to do so. The temper and
disposition which have popular
lied him in private life will stand
him in even better stead in his new posi-
ton. The RECORD UNION is prepared to
give his administration hearty and I'M
grudging support, 50 long as it deserves to
be supported. Should he not fulfill the
promises of his Inauguration, this journal
will be among the first to criticise his de-
reflections. We trust very sincerely, how
ever, that there will be no need for the
performance of so disagreeable duty, but
that the term which opens with such pleas
ant representations will end az smoothly. !
Meanwhile we welcome our new Governor
to his official residence, and congratulate
him on the opening of his executive career.

right of suffrage or their right of repre-
"sentation for formal errors" that "the
:" object of the constitutional provisions :"
is "to correctly ascertain and declare the
"will of the people quite new view to
Governor Garcelon, we should say; that
the Governor and Council ''haye no right
'to go behind the returns and so on
through the long list of questions. The
Governor is discountenanced and oyeT-
thrown by the Supreme Court, in snort.
and it will be a very difficult matter
for him to persist in his rascaliy
outrage in the teeth of this ju-
dicial broadside. Thus far he has
stood altogether upon the plea that the
Constitution obliged him to DO what he
| had done, and that whoever had any COM
| plant to make must therefore find fault
with the laws, and not with him. He has
attitudinized as a peculiarly upright and
infiexible administrator of the Constitu
ton, and has fallen back upon this defense
every time he was attacked, as upon an
inyalnerable shield. And now his refuge
aud shelter is snatched from him pitilessly,
and the Court of last resort declares that
all the illegahty and all the unconstitu-
; tienality are on the side of the Governor
and Council, and nett. the side of the
people or their municipal officers OF their
representatives-elect. 1t seems that there
can be no course open to Governor Garcelon,
breakdown. Certainly if he refuses now to
recognize the force of the Supreme Courts
decision, he will place himself in a position
from which it will not be difficult to dis
: lodge him ANONYMOUSLY. For either he
must avow his deliberate purpose to defy
the Constitution and the laws, and to seat
by force a Legislature never elected by the
people, or he must yield The Fusionists
who were to have profted by the con-
spiracy will perhaps not now be so willing
to accept the Governors illegal certificates.
Four of them, indeed, have already proved
too honest to take seats to which they
knew themselves not entitled, and for the
others, it is probable that prayerful study
of the decision of the Supreme Court will
work conviction. 1t would have been
better for Garcelon could he have
kept the business out of the Courts,
but it was the fatal weakness of
his position that he could not
at the same time pretend to rely upon the
law, and refuse to seek the highest ex-
preston of that law. The necessities of
his own situation virtually obliged him to
accept Senator MorrilPs challenge, and in
doing so he drew upon himself disaster.
Should he still harden his heart, like
Pharaoh of old, it is possible that the
Maine Republicans will be less disposed to
avoid recourse to strong measures than
they were while doubt remained as to the
technical legality of his position. He is
now himself the outlaw, and he cannot ex-
pect the tolerance which even wrongful
wrestings of legal provisions are apt to
meet at the hands of an habitually orderly
aud law-abiding people.

THE APPOINTMENTS OF MIR BURNS.

The new Secretary of State, Mr. Burns,
has been censured very sharply by some
journals, on the ground that he has APP
pointed certain Democrats to office. One
paper even goes so far as to call him
traitor to his party" and abuses him
strangely. We cannot sympathize with or
approve this style of criticism We know
of but one vitality important consideration
in regard to these or any other appoint
ments, and that Is, the consideration of
their fitness. Now so far as we know Mr..
Burns has chosen none but competent
persons, and one at least of his appoint
ments we know to be exceptionally COM
potent. In that case he has appointed
gentleman, who, being a Democrat, and
in Office, resolutely refused to avail himself
of his opportunities to disfranchise mum.
Der of Republican voters, and was then
and thereafter denounced and ostracized
by his old party for his integrity. 1t
seems to us that the people caGnot have
too many men of that eahber in Office, and
that Secretary Burns deserves credit rather
than abuse for making such selection. For
the rest, when it can be shown that his
other appointments are open to attack on
the ground of unftness, it will be time |
enough for members of the party which
claims the parentage of Civil Service Re-
form, to object to them.

THE OPENING OF THE LEGISLATIVE
SESSION

To-day the State Legislature enters upon
the most important session that has been
held since California became State, for
the work to be done after the adoption of
the first Constitution was mere child's
play compared to that which the present
Legislature has to encounter. 1t is not only
that new Constitution has to be applied
in all its details, but that because of the
folly of the trainers of that instrument,
the Legislature will be continually con-
fronted with propositions involving the
most calamitous consequences to the people
1t may be said that the public cannot really
know what effect the new Constitution
is going to have upon the progress and
prosperity of California until this Legisla-
ture has finished its labors. Its task more
over is necessal ily both a delicate and an
unthankful one, for while it cannot
disobey the mandatory prescriptions of the
organic law, it is liable to be held respon-
sible for whatever evil consequences may
attend its statutory enforcement of meas
ures it is charged to put in operation.
There will be ample opportunity for the
fullest display of ability and craftsmanship
during this session, and the people have
the strongest reasons for hoping that the
new Legislature may prove itself a capable
and judicious body. We believe that its
tendencies are conservative and cautious,
and in this direction it will be scarcely
possible to err since the Constitution itself
is so radical that all the inertia of the most
prudent lawmakers can hardly change its
general character and bearing. The work
to be done is so heavy that unless the most
methodical and systematic practice is
adopted at the beginning of the session it
will be impossible to complete it within the
allotted time. 1t is evident that if the or.
binary custom of introducing heterogene-
GUS legislation by the ream is fol-
lowed, the committees are likely to
become overburdened with business, and
to be thrown into confusion. Even with
the best management there will be danger
of this, and therefore an effort should be
made to clear the ground thoroughly at
the outset. Organization once effected, it
will be possible to get down to work with
out the delays which under the old ar
rangement were always caused by the in
tervention of the Christmas HOLIDAYS. 1t
will of course depend upon the inclination
OF the majority whether the most mis-
chievous parts of the new Constitution
shall be given the full force intended by
their inventors, but it is probable that the
evident harm which has already been in
fiicted on the State by the apprehension
of those evils viii suffice to convince men,
bers that their duty to their constituents |
hes in the most conservative interpreta-
tions of which the situation is susceptible |
