reason, that our contemporary, which so
signally fails as an exponent of public opin
ion, has been able on its own account to
appreciate how vast is the difference be-
tween the positions of the Republican and
Democratic parties regarding those ques-
tions in which are bound up the best inter-
ests of all the people. But we cannot
refrain from expressing the regret that
returning intelligence has not enabled the
Examiner to perceive from the nominating
speeches, from personal records and from
historical pages, how vast is the difference
between the characters that were the sub
jects of eulogiums-a difference even
greater than that between the positive and
the negative man, between the office
seeker and the officer sought, or between

COMPETING POINTS.

Referring to Sacramento and some other
places being terminal points for rail trans
portation OF freight, and the objection San
Francisco raises TO interior and nearer
places to Eastern markets receiving goods
at like charge with that made for trans
portation to the metropolis, a more dis
tant point, a correspondent in our issue of
Friday said: The giving to Sacramento
and Los Angeles the same advantages, ex-
cept that of charging the same for a
shorter haul, was in obedience to com
plants having their origin in San Fran
CISCO urged on by aspiring politicians of
both political parties for the sake of the
capital there was in it." Whatever of
accuracy there IS in that statement, the
natural competitive advantage of Sacra-
mcnto cannot be properly omitted. This
city is situated upon a navigable stream
that empties into great tidewater har-
Dor This gives her communication with
the maritime markets Of the world, sub
iect only to the handling of the goods at
san Francisco. 1t makes her a competi-
tive point by nature This is one of the
most potent reasons for the preservation of
the navigability of the Sacramento river,
and should, if no other-reasons prevented,
make Sacramento jealous of any action
that may impair it. Another sentence in
the letter Of our correspondent may lead
to misrepresentation: Within the last
TWO or three years Sacramento, Stockton,
San Jose and Los Angeles have been made
common or terminal points-that is to say,
rates to and from these points have been
the same as to San Francisco Sacra-
mento has been recognized as a COMPETE
tive point many years. As far back as
1874 the matter was examined into by the
Legislature, and ii was then testified be-
fore Senate committee that the Eastern
roads for long time had refused to recog-
nize San Francisco as a competitive point.
After a while, however, the California
railroad operators induced them to do so.
Next they recognized Sacramento, and
then Marysville and San Jose, and still
later Stockton-as competing points.

to have a case tried by a jury amounts to little,
ii a verdict in his favor can be sci aside by a
Judge.
The good the essayist believes would re-
suit from the proposed reform would be to
give greater gravity and Importance to
trials; to induce thorough preparation as
to the law and the evidence, under the
consciousness that there would be no
chances for the result of slip-shod work to
be avoided by an entire new trial; the law
of cases would be fully investigated by
counsel beforehand points would not be
raised on the spur of the moment, to be
ruled upon, and the feeling would disap-
pear that it does not matter much how the
Judgment goes in the Court below.

THE INJUSTICE OF NEW TRIALS
PROPOSED REFORMS.

Judge T. B. Mcfarland, of the Bench OF
the Superior Court of Sacramento, has a
paper in the Orerland for February, which
may very well awaken the attention of the
Judiciary Committees of both houses OF
the Legislature now in session, and stimu-
ate the search for a remedy for the abuse
which the paper demonstrates certainly
exists in the matter Of granting new trials.
The article is in line with current debate
In other States on law reform. 1t Is incl
sive, forciblc, and comes from a jurist OF
such long experience and established high
character as legal critic, that it should adj
dress itself to the Legislature with the
force of a petition.
The paper starts out with the assertion
that our practice of granting new trials is
prolific Of rank injustice, ruinous delay and
useless expenditure of time and money.
and of can absurd waste of energy by
travelling in circle not tolerated in any
other department Of human thought OF
action From our nisi prius Courts de
feated party may appeal to the Supreme
Court. but he is not required to take up
the whole case in his bill of exceptions
upon which the appeal Is based if new
trial is denied him. He is required to
state to the appellate Court only those
parts Of the case in which he thinks the
Court below committed theoretical
error" If the appellate Court holds with
him, and that the error-irom the partial
view the Court gets Of the case-afiected
the final judgment, the case is sent back To
be tried over again in Its entirety.
The remedy the essayist proposes is to
have the case so sent up that the appellate
Court, instead of ordering new trial, can
render the correct judgment, and thus
make an end of the litigation. An ex-
ample Is given Of the injustice of our
present system. Suppose case where the
plaintiff Is clearly entitled to judgment.
1t Is tried and he RECEIVERS. But the at
torney opposing causes the Court to make
many rulings against him. To each an
exception is taken-say fifty. Out Of
these he selects three upon which to ap-
peal, and illustrates them with just enough
of the evidence to make them clear. The
Statement Is settled as to its truth and
the record goes up. Now, if the Court
above agrees with the appellant on one q
his points, and ii appears to be material
new trial is ordered, and the Who'll,
ground must be gone over again. After
another long trial. ana Judgment the sec
Ond time for the plaintiff, the case may g
up again ON new exceptions, the forty
seven remaining old ones and perhaps
twenty new ones being taken. The ap
pellate Court may repeat It's action, and
on some point not brought up, again order
a new trial If the plaintiff is not bank
rupt by this time, third trial is had Will

Some of the addresses nominating Gov

The Supreme Court Of Nebraska has
decided that a telephone company has no
right to refuse its service, and may be
compelled to extend its privileges, to any
person willing to comply with the usual
requirements imposed upon subscribers
generally. Now let Courts or Legislators
go a step further and require the monopo-
lists Of the telephone to sell their instrl-
ments to wouid-be buyers. The very pur-
pose and handspring Of the patent monop-
oily grant, is to secure to inventors the
exclusive right to the profits of the manu-
facture and sale OF their inventions. It
was never intended TO put up the bars in
front of great scientific discoveries, to
prevent their Use by the people.
