A POINT WELL TAKEN.

a correspondent elsewhere makes very
strong showing in favor OF change in the
apporticnment of the school fund. He
alleges that under the old system (which is
continued by the new billy, the apportion-
ment OF school money in the various dis
tricts has been regulated by the school
census, and that this is an Enthusiastically
guide, because it may, and often does,
give the names of many children who
never attend school. 1t thus happens
that districts where Spanish Catholics
predominant may secure relatively large
appropriations, though in fact the num-
Der of children receiving instruction is
very small while districts containing
a small number of American children,
who all go to school, receive far less
than they could find uses for. Clearly this
Is state of things which ought not to ex-
list any longer, and it would be very unde
sirable that the new system should perpetu-
ate any such unsatisfactory arrangement.
The school census is not reliable standard
of apportionment. 1t ought to be ascer-
tanned how many children in a district ac
tually attend school. Our correspondent
suggests mode of distributing the pro
rata fund which may meet the require
ments of the case, and which is certainly
an improvement on the old method. We
would call the attention of the Superin-
tendent of Public Instruction to this mat
ter particularly, and commend it also to
the Legislature.

he is implored to lift up his hand
is not within his reach If, as is
asserted, the new revenue bill, following
the Constitution as it does, threatens the
interests of savings banks, the situation
cannot be amended by vetoing this bill.
So long as the new Constitution endures
that menace will hang over savings instr
tutions. AT every Legislature the same
danger will recur, and other Executives
may sign such bills. The mere apprehen-
sion of this must prove fatal to the stability
of the menaced institutions Monetary
organization proves impracticable under
such conditions. But the evil is already
beyond remedy, because it is fixed in the
organic law, and therefore nothing can be
gained by an attempt TO evade it, There
is no feature in the revenue bill upon
which veto could be grounded which
would not involve eontravention of the
Constitution. And because this is so we
are of opinion that Governor Perkins has
no warrant for Withholding his signature
from the bill
Sacramento daily record-union. [volume] (Sacramento [Calif.]) 1875-1891, 1880-03-17
NO GROUNDS roR A VEro.

1t is being alleged by some of those who
think the Governor ought to veto the rev.
enue bill, that it goes further than the
Constitution, and that therefore he would
be justified in refusing to sign it. Thus the
Bulletin says "the clause in the bill max
"ing it imperative to tax the deposits of
savings banks is species of double tax
" alton not even required by the Constitu-
" ton" This language of our contempt
rary almost justiies suspicion that it has
failed to study with sufficient care either
the bill or the Constitution. The asser-
ton that the Constitution does not require
the kind of double taxation here referred
to is wholly without warrant. The defni-
ton of property contained in the Constitu-
ton unquestionably includes all certificates
and representatives of property whatever,
and therefore it calls for the most sweep
ing and exhaustive multiform taxation.
The friends of the Constitution have
steadily denied that it prescribed double
taxation, but no one of them has
ever denied that it required the
taxation of all representatives of prop
erty, as well as the property represented.
They admit that this is in the Constitu-
ton, but they contend that it does not
constitute double taxation. The conten-
ton is of course bubble about the name
of the proceeding, and it is nothing more.
But whatever it is called, whether double
taxation, or single taxation repeated, or
whatever name sophists may apply, the
thing itself is there, Embedded deep in the
heart of the organic law, and no exercise
OF the veto power can eliminate it. The
new revenue bill follows the Constitution,
and does net go beyond it, for the simple
but sufficient reason that it would be i'm
possible to do so. To what useful end,
then, would Governor Perkins exercise
the veto power? The evil against which
