Mr.. Will S. Green called attention in
our columns yesterday to the great value
of that river which our people are allowing
to be destroyed before their eyes. The
Importance of the Sacramento to the whole
of northern California can scarcely be over
estimated. 1t has money value which can
be clearly ascertained by all who take the
pains to examine the question for them
selves. So long as its waters are open to
navigation those who live within reach of
it are guaranteed the lowest possible rates
of transportation. The river controls all
the railroads with which it can be made
to compete. Should it cease to be naviga-
BILE, however, not only Sacramento but
Colusa and other towns along Its
banks would lose this invaluable pro-
lection against high rates OF trans
portation. The river acts as natural
and permanent safeguard in this respect,
but the fact that it must soon cease to
protect the public in this way unless some
thing is done, is as plain as anything open
to the meanest comprehension. Mr.. Green
estimates that the river navigation saves
the farmers of Colusa county not less than
5000, 900 a year. What it saves Sacra-
mento can be judged from this But
this saving is now in process of being

The Constitutional provision which gives

own textbooks, in utter indifference to the
system pursued elsewhere, vitiates the

A good provision of the bill is to the
effect that two members of every Board of
Education shall be teachers. We are not
sure that it would not have been still better
to have put three teachers on the Board, as
the County Superintendent is not (neces-
sarily) teacher himself, and as he and the
two lay members of the Board can under
the proposed arrangement always outvote
the educational members. tits, we think,
also evident that the County and City Su-
perintendents ought always to be teachers,
To the extent that they are not teachers
they must hamper and impede the progress
of the schools, no matter how energetic
and earnest they may be. 1t is unbusi-
ness-like to put unframed men in positions
demanding special training, and the notion
of keeping the schools in the control of
the people by this means is too crude
to be put forward seriously any
longer. If we want a thoroughly good
educational system we must put thorough
ly trained men in all its departments,
and not until we do that shall
we succeed in bringing the schools up to
the required standard Of efficiency. 1t
is even more necessary that the schools
should be in the hands of trained teachers
in the rural than in the urban districts, for
there the chances of finding educated
men to put on the Boards of Education
must necessarily be smaller than in the
cities, and so the danger of absolutely bad
methods of instruction must be the greater.
Section 30 of the new bill provides that
no person whose husband, father, broth
Ger, uncle or cousin is member of
" Board of District Trustees or City Board
:" of Education, shall hereafter be eligible
g for election as teacher in such district or
:" city, and no County Superintendent shall
draw a warrant for the salary of any
sc teacher so elected" At first sight this
seems righteous precaution against ne
potism, but reflection will show that it en-
tails not little hardship upon those who
may be unfortunate enough to be related in
any of the affinities described, to Trustees
or members of the Board OF Education.
We are also tempted to inquire whether
the adoption of such clause does not
imply very serious doubt of the probity
with which examinations not only are, but
will hereafter be, conducted Obviously
If the examiners are honest no such oues-
ton of relationship can affect the standing
OF candidates. Is it really necessary to
take for granted the normal dishonesty of
Examiners in this way? 1t may be
simple mode of preventing favoritism. but
to our thinking it savors far too much of
the Oriental receipt for preventing in.
trigues against reigning sovereign by kill
ing all his relatives when he mounts the
throne. Under this law the appointment
or election of any citizen District Trustee
or member of Board of Education, dis.
qualities his kinsfolk for election as teachers
in such district or city. The constitu-
tionality of such an arrangement is open
to grave doubt, and its ethical Justification
appears to us singularly defective Ii citi-
zens cannot be trusted without prohibitory
clauses of this kind, they cannot be trusted
with them.

TIE IMPORTANCE OF SETTLING THE
DEBRIS QUESTION.

The RECORD UNION desires to call the
attention of the public to the Importance
of settling the debris question without fur
Their delay. We have believed that the
Parks bill met the requirements of the case
more nearly than any other measure which
has been proposed We, however, are too
profoundly convinced of the necessity for
remedial action to hazard the failure of all
legislation. Having no further interest in
this matter than that which we share with
the community, it is IT main desire to aid
in the accomplishment of what investiga-
ton shows to be necessary. At present
we apprehend the results of discord and
procrastination. Public opinion has thus
far been manifested almost exclusively
in opposition to the measures which
have been brought forward. There
appears to be no harmony any
where as to what ought to be
done. If this state of things continues
much longer the Legislature will adjourn
without having passed any law bearing on
the subject. We are well aware that this
is precisely what is sought by many of the
opponents of the Parks bill. 1t is not so
much that they are opposed to that par
ticular way of treating the question, as
that they are opposed to any way of treat
ing it that will put stop to litigation.
This, however, is not the interest of the
people. Whether it is the Parks bill or
any other, it is for the public well-being
that some remedial legislation should
be had at this session. Should
the Legislature adjourn without do
ing anything, the resort to the
Courts will be the only one left to the
farmers. But even should they be
successful in procuring injunctions against
the hydraulic miners, they would not be
any the more safe. For it must be real
lied clearly that if these mines all sus
pended working tomorrow, the danger
would remain, the fact being that there is
enough debris this side of the mines to
complete the work of destruction already
SO far ON its way. The natural flow of the
rivers must bring this debris down, and
when it comes, if no preparations have
been made to dispose of it, the farmers
will find litigation useless to prevent the
ruin of their land, and the dwellers along
the rivers will discover that the remedy of
stopping the flow of debris from the mines
was applied too late.

IN thir views Of morality as we'll as in

from the general and so-callcd modern
training, given to them as an especially
privileged class, whereby little REGARD
is paid to the peculiar qualities Of each
individual nature. He expressed his
full conviction, that, 50 far as his eX-
pcrlcnce went, he found them more
likely to display cXtravagant generosity,
which imposes the public, and is cu-
Io@ized by newspapers than to uoum,h

The (,auSc Of Ii.

While we recognize the mutual obi
cations of Democrats and Independent
Republicans, arising out of yesterdays
result, it is no fault of the Republican
papers here that this proper view of it
should be popularity taken. We feel that
the Democrats are under many Obliga-
tiOns to the better class of Republicans
for SO heroically rising above "party ,,
claims as to vote for an excellent Demo
cratic candidate; at the same time they
must admit their reciprocal obligation
to the Democrats for Drawing so many
prejudices and putting up a man
who merited everybOdy's support
But it is not because of the
course of the Republican newspapers that
we are able to say this. Before the cleo
tion the Examiner said q If Mr.. Mac
Gonigle is voted for it must = be
rs an open and cxclu-
sive Democrat who will use all the
power and patronage of his Office as
mayor for the benefit of that party. This,
any Republican who may vote for him
will understand The Ncr Era said
that there never had been any personal
nor official objections to Boring, and that
all others were removed, and that he
would get and was entitled to /" the SUP
port of every citizen who prefers Re
publican to Democrat at the head of a
Republican CITY," There was perfect
accord it is said, in the Republican Or
ganization on that point and the only
question it recognized in the campaign
was " whether Republican city shall
be ruled by Republican administration.
Those who think it should will vote for
John A. Boring, whose Republicanism
has never been questioned" They put
it Oh the low ground of party we
did not. They are estopped from find
ing in the result anything but Demo-
cratic victory; we are not. They must
either admit this, or that they did not
tell the truth, or that they have no influ-
ence. The INrELLIGENCER alone is
able to attribute this result to its true
cause.-the intelligence and wisdom of
the Democrats and the manly courage of
the Independent Republicans. That set
tied it.
