THE tendency of the Federal Courts,
OF late days, to overstep the bounds
which usage, ii not correct constitu.
tional precedent, had prescribed to their
jurisdiction is startlingly exempliiied in
the preliminary injunction issued by
Judge Sawyer, OF the Ninth Circuit
Court OF the United States, restraining
the Board of Supervisors of San Fran
cisco from fixing water rates for that
city. The interposition of the court is
sought under that provision of the Con-
stitution of the United States which
forbids any State from passing any law
invalidatiug the force of contracts, the
Spring Valley Water Company assum.
ing that by the act OF 1858, creating it,
1t acquired certain rights which the new
constitution of California has attempted
to abrogate. Lawyers will watch the
progress of this case with an absorbing
interest. Ii is an entirely novel thing
to see United States Courts interfering
in little municipal squabbles, but il the
Spring Valley Water Company can
establish the fact that any OF its con
tract rights has been violated, Judge
Sawyer is quite likely to make the tenn
porary injunction permanent. The tele-
gram which appeared in yesterday morn
ing's HERALD said that it would require
several days to argue the case. As the
law makes it obligatory upon the Board
OF Supervisors to fix the water rates on
or before the LIST day of March, little
delay in the argument might comphcate
matters very materially.

"types, as l believe ii better to convey
'the impression that Florida is not
''suited for any type Of the disease.
DR.. Walton also shows that the death
ratio from consumption at Jacksonville,
these deaths being Of residents only, Is
greater than 1t is even in the Northern
States OF the Union. Every argument
used by him is against Florida ms sani.
tarium for consumptives, and is in favor
of climate like ours. Hundreds Of
consumptivcs are annually lured to the
moist climate Of Florida to die there's
and It is to be hoped that DR.. Walton's
pnper may open the eyes of others con-
templating the trip. In Southern Cali
fornia we have a climate that for warmth
and dryness is excelled by none; and
hundreds OF onr best citizens nre those
who came here consnmptives. Many, II
is true, come here in tho last stages of
consumption. For such, there is abso.
lutely no cure under the sun. But if
any climate upon this broad earth can
cure consumptive, or alleviate his suf-
ferings, it il the climate Of Southern
California.

AlTuouGn the status of DR.. Head is
not such as to make prolonged discus
sion of his acts interesting to the general
public, still there is circumstance
about his flimsy excuse for opposing the
Sunday law that requires passing men,
ton. While he admits that he pledged
himself to the repeal of that obsolete
statute he 81 rs that he never pledged
himself to vote to repeal section 800,
which prohibits barbarous amusements.
To make DIR, Heads position the more
absurd the fact ought to be generally
known that this very section explicitly
prohibits the keeping open of saloon on
Sunday. DIR. Head, to secure the votes
of those who favored the sumptuary law
provision of the San Jose Convention
was quite willing to make profuse
pledges. which heafterwards deliberately
broke. We are not left in any uncer-
tainly as to what his attitude was dur.
ing the campaign. We learn from his
associates on the ticket that his position
had been the subject of considerable
discussion, and that he assured some of
these gentlemen, in the most emphatic
terms, that he was heart and soul for
the repeal OF the Sunday law When
he was confronted at Sacramento by
those conversant with his pledges he
did not pretend to deny that he had
made them, but sought refuge in the
remark that some decency must be
maintained in the Democratic party.
The time for DIR. Head to have found
this out was when he was. glibly prom.
Using to vote for q repeal of the Sunday
law, in order to secure votes. He will
not be without his reward. There is
enough decency remaining in the DEM
ocratic party to see that no man who
has betrayed his constituents and broken
his plighted word shall receive any
liberation at Democratic hands. As
dead, politically, as Rameses or the
Pharaohs, is one DR.. Head, elected by
the Democracy of Los Angeles as one of
their Assemblymen.
