Sunshine at Home.

Many child goes astray, not be-
cause there is want of proper cX-
PLANTATION, but simply because there
j. a lack Of sunshine at school. a
child needs smiles rs much as flowers
need Sumbcams. Children look little
beyond the present moment. If a
thing plcascs them they are apt 10
seek it, if it displeases they are prone
to avoid it. If a school is the place
where faces are sour, and harsh words
and fault-tinding is ever in the ascen-
dant, they will spend as many hours
a, possible elsewhere. Let all teach
crs, then try to be happy. Let them
talk to the children, especially the
little ones, in such way as to make
them happy also.

Youth is cause, the condition of
manhood and Of old age is an effect.
Time is a soed-Geld; in youth We SOW
it with causes, in after life We reap
the harvest Of effects. God has es-
tablished no relation more indis-
soluble than that between youth and
age, between the spring time of
causes and the autumn and winter of
consequences. Cause, cause, cause,
is stamped all along upon the con
duet of youth; effect, effect, effect, is
nodded and chiseled in upon the re-
suits of that conduct in age. Look
at the causes on one side; look at
effects on the other; look at the ada
msntine relation which God has es-
tablishcd between them.-M NlmJ,.

EXTRA-sEssIONAL NOTES.

One OF those who came here so full of enthusi-
asm on irrigation legislation that it was fairly
boiling over, admitted yesterday that the out
look was rather blue. Many others seem to be
similarly affected just now.
Fad Senator Lynch's resolution. offered YES
terday, providing that all memorials, petitions,
etc, be entered in full upon the journal. been
carried the Journal Jerk would not have found
his Office anything like a sineeure. Both houses
are likely to be flooded with petitions for and
against legislation upon the subject of irriga-
ton.
A meeting OF the Senate Committee OF Irriga-
ton and Water Rights was held in the Senate
chamber shortly after the adjournment yester-
day. No action was taken on any of the bills,
however, as the committee deemed it necessary
to have before it all those relating to the same
subject II was determined to hold regular
meetings on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays,
Immediately after the adjournment of the Sen
ate, and mt such other times as the Chairman
might call the committee together.
1t seemed to be the general feeling among
members OF the Senate Committee on Irrigation
and Water kights-judging from expressions
dropped at yesterdays meeting-that no high
flown addresses about orange groves - shady
bowers by purling brooks nol of d" the deserts
being made to blossom like the rose" ETC.. are
desired at this time by that body. As
Senator Whitney expressed it, "What we
substantial work, and consider this sub
ject in practical manner Hence the COM
nlttee has seen fit not to extend a general invi-
tation to everybody to come in and exhaust its
time by airing their own peculiar views. 9th
erWise the Eads ship canal project, and mex
haustible essays on kindred Subjects might be
sprung on the committee.

THE State Engineer, than whom no one
has more extensively studied the irriga-
ton question, in his recent monograph on
the subject says California is pre-eminently
an irrigation country, and that we have no
irrigation laws worthy of the name. In
countries where irrigation is highly devel-
oped, streams and their waters are gener-
ally the property of the public-or of the
people in common-and are under control
of and supervision by governmental
authorities. The riparian law he holds
inapplicable to an irrigation country. In
Il country like California, he contends, ir-
rigation is a necessary common or public
use of waters, which can only be efficiently
founded upon public control of water sup
plies, and this, in turn, must rest on public
ownership of streams. Hence he concludes
our system should be based on public own
ership, as against unguarded appropria-
ton. He adds: "Once vest in the State
the ownership Of all watercourses and
waters not rising and continuing on one
piece of private property, and excepting,
also, those the property of the United
States, and we will have established the
basis of safe and efficient watercourse
laws and administration, on which alone
can rest an operative system of legislation.
The State has everything to fear from pri-
vate ownership of natural watercourses.
She has nothing to fear from owning and
administering them herself"

To secure the best results in conventions
those bedies must be made representative
in the highest sense. All The Republican
managers need to do this summer and fall
10 succeed, is to trust the people of the
party, to recognize and properly weigh the
value of the independent Republican voter.
for whom the party lash has no terror.
Let the men appointed to put the political
machinery into operation bring all the
methods and work Of the party just as near
to the people as can be done. They must
see to it that the delegates are chosen by
the file of the party directly, and that they
are not appointed or named by pre-arrange-
ment. in order that there shall not remain
the slightest cause for complaining OR dis
content. The best party results always
flow from implicit trust in the people
within the party Left to freedom of ac-
ton they never make mistakes nor choose
2nwisely. They viii send up delegates to
the conventions who will make such bodies
inspire public respect, and their work COM
mand public confidence. Party supremacy
stands superior now to personal ambitions
or the astuteness of political bosses. There
is no need for manipulation or trimming.
The ship is well manned and finely Off
cered. Before her is an inviting sea, and
in her sails favoring breeze. She needs
no theoretical lacking nor the secret calcu-
lation of her course by schemers. 1t is
plain sailing and straightforward naviga-
ton, with the people of the party at the
helm. Let them not be superseded in that
trustworthy position.

JOINT COMMITTEE MEETING.

seat beside him. The Courtroom was com

islature being present, and many iE,igatioIiss
and riparisB;sts.
After stating the object OF the meeting. Chair
man Walrath called out Dr.. CapleS. prominent
Sacramento county farmer.
Or. Caples said We are in the midst of s pro-
found excitement. and the foreign or Eastern
visitor would think. and very naturally so. that
there was the widest division of sentiment upon
this question, but il is mistake. The people
OF this state are almost a unit upon this ques-
ton of irrigation, but there are other issues
upon which they are divided. In these times
We should act with wisdom; stop and calmly
and deliberately view this question, and see
where We stand, what are the differences, what
IS night, what is wrong and what yog, as men,
bers OF the Legislature. should do in this crisis

THE Riverside Press says the RECORD
UNION is against the "irrigators" Go
from home to hear the news. The Rec
oRD-UNIoN has not in any way signifed
that it is against the b" irrigators." 1t IA
vored and discussed irrigation for Cali
fornia before Riverside had an existence.
Il is and always has been in favor of that
great need. If it has refused to adopt out
of hand the methods proposed by orr
Riverside friends, it does not justify the
conclusion they draw. The RECoRD-UNIoN
is for the navigable streams and irrigation ;
as to methods of attaining the best irriga-
ton system there are differing opinions,
and the RECoRD-UNIoN is in the service
of the debate. We take it that the mass
of the people have not clearly defined
views as yet as to just what legislation is
needed, is best and easiest, nor will they
be able to determine until they have still
more debated this involved and gravely
important question. Our contemporary
adds to its criticism, that nevertheless, it is
backed in its views as to methods by a
"solid SOUTH" Yet in the same mail that
brings us the Press comes the Los Angeles
Express, declaring that it is evident those
not the friends of the irrigation ship have
taken possession of it. and assailing holly
the measures proposed by the Irrigation
Committee; and the Los Angeles Times is
no less pronounced in the same vein. 1t
is hasty to conclude that one is opposed
because certain methods of action are
not affirmatively supported off hand

SIR CHARLES dixie has issued an adj
dress to the Chelsea electors, bidding them
farewell and affirming still his innocence
of the charges of gross immortality proven
against him in Court He has ordered the
sale of his Chelsea estate, and will retire
into France permanently. So ends the
career of distinguished Englishman.
Insistence upon innocence in the face of
the verdict of jury of his country, based
upon the testimony given in the Crawford
trial, avails him nothing. His retiracy
from England gives strength to the
verdict, and will be received rather as a
confession of guilt than of inability, as he
asserts, to prove his innocence because of
injustice done him in the Courts. There
has been committed grossest perjury in the
litigation of this Crawford-Dilke scandal,
and as leading English journal remarks,
it behooves the law officers to bring some
one to punishment for it. To let the rich
escape from the consequences of such a
crime is to confess that there is one law
in England for the wealthy and another
FOR the poor man For it is certain that
if the case had been that of a poor man,
or poor woman, some one ere this would
have been under lock and key for bearing
false witness.
