THE TAX CASES.

At the conference of counties upon the
railroad tax cases, held on Saturday, the
Attorney General carried an air of trihing
not in keeping with the gravity of the SUBJ
ject. He declared that the arguing Of the
case before the United States Supreme
Court "is a solemn humbug, and some
thing superhuous, but he knew of no one
who could do it better than Mr.. D5lmas."
Was he pokirg fun at MIR. Delmas? If so,
the conference got it back on him by de-
clariDg its confidence that the Attorney
General was the properest man to make
the argument, that is to say, to indulge in
superhuous and solemn humbug! The
Attorney General indicated $4,000 as
proper fee for Mr.. Delmas, and he was as
gociated with the Attorney. General to pro.
coed to Washington and perform the I" su-
perAuous and solemn humbug" duty. Mr..
Dusterberry, of Alameda county, seemed
the keenest-witted and most alive
to the situation of any member of the con.
ference. He objected to the lawyers fixing
up fees for each other, to be paid by the
people, as the profession has no con.
science in the matter of remuneration.
The Attorney. General rejoined that he
would feel lonesome going to Washington
alone, and that if he did not have Mr..
Delmas with him it would look as though
the State had abandoned the contest.
Whereupon Mr.. Dusterberry reminded him
that he had said one lawyer was sufficient
to present the case, to which the Attorney
General replied, "The world is ruled
largely by humbug. Oae man will be able
to present the case, but two will make q
more imposing show and the money will be
well spent" The whole appearance of the
Attorney General in the matter is most ex-
traordinary. It reads like the merest
trifing and tom-foelery, and if his judg.
ment of the matter is correct, it is waste
of money TO send believer in humbug to
argue so grave an issue before the oountry's
highest Court. -[0akland Times.

PUBLISHED POISON.

It is matter of congratulation that so
much attention is being given to the SUBJ
ject of the publication and sale of PERM.
cious literature. The South has taught US
q lesson in this matter. 1t has been the first
to hurl the thunderbolts of just, though
severe, law against the miserably selfish
class of men who are flooding the country
with the seeds of ruin, moral and physical,
and which the youth of the land is devour.
ing with avidity. It has been the first to
declare that the public highway is to be
kept not only decently clean for the wheels
of carriages and wagons, but that they
shall be cleared of the vile display of
noxious sheets that tiaunt their tempta.
tions from news.stands and sta.ioners'
windows. An Eastern magazine quotes
man who has for years been connected
with great police department. as saying
that he considers the impure literature of
the day as the most fecund of all separable
and traceable causes of crime. II we wish
to put some check upon the moral degen-
eracy of the youth of the day, let US give
due need of attention to the caterers to
vicious appetites. That the publisher
caters to an established appetite, says the
Continent forcibly, is no more of an excuse
than that advanced by the bsgnio keeper.
The illustrated sheets of the slums portray
the revels of prostitution and debauchery,
and therefore are on the level with the
gilded dens of vice. To carry the smile
further, let us add that the man who pre-.
tends to be self.respecting will not, for the
sake Of making living, or for any other
reason, faunt these sheets in the faces OF
our wives and children on the public street,
or expose them upon the counter or in the
window for sale, but if he must keep them,
he will do as the druggist does with poison,
put them on top shelf, labeled with the
warning TO all, "touch not"

CONSISTENCY AND TIE "IHDEPEEr
EET"

just before the recent election in New
York, the Tribune alleged that there were
in that State thousands OF men who were
neither consistent Republicans nor consist
emit Democrats-these were the independ.
emit voters who sent the 200, 600 majority of
the Democracy topping down. Now what
the Tribune said regarding New York State
is also true of California, and nearly all
the Northern States. In this estimate, let
it be understood that consistency, as inter.
preted by the party machinist, is very
different thing from the consistency
of the independent voter. With the
mere partisan consistency has but
narrow and vulgar meaning. To
him it means "the party right or
Sacramento daily record-union. [volume] (Sacramento [Calif.]) 1875-1891, 1883-11-13

wrong" adherence to a doctrine, or
ticket, or platform, because on some pre-
vious occasion the man had favored it. In
fact, that sort of consistency is the basest
Of motives for action. No man should
sink to SO law level as to be in favor of
anything simply and solely because he did
at some time declare for it. Political con.
sistency is of tie right stamp which holds
a man to principles that are interchangeable
and bids him revolt from doctrines or par
ties when they cease to reflect his conscien-
tious views. Independency is consistency.
and consistency is independence. It leaves
the man free to follow what he deems the
right, regardless of the fact that it may
place him apparently or actually at vari-
ance with himself in the past. Thousands
of men have been whipped into sill sorts of
wrong doing by the fear of being pro-
nounced inconsistent. Consistency means
courage, conviction and consistence; it
means the conception of the right and the
bravery to declare for it. 1t does not mean
servile attachment to party or doctrine.
The consistent Republican, or the con.
sistent Democrat, is ne who refuses to fol.
10 party when it moves from his conscien-
tious standard, even if the party is right
and he is in error in his judgment.
Whosoever does not recognize the fact
in American politics that the independent
voter is becoming more and more a power
in the land that he is rapidly becoming
the most important factor In the body pol
itic; that he is, in short, the bulwark of
our political institutions, is shortsighted,
and blinded to such an extent by party
zeal that he will not admit there is lion
in the way until he runs into its jaws.
Twice in succession the independent voters
of the chief State of the Union have
spoken of their power in tones that only
deaf partisans refuse to hear-twice in
succession has this vital factor in our po-
lisical system, which wisdom will not
ignore, written upon the walls of parry,
warnings so clear that no Daniel is needed
to interpret them.
