proves them. Why should there be

overriding and absorbing me-

templated amendment relating TO the

DAY DISPATCHES.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 22.-At meet
ing Of the Democratic State Central
Committee last night the subcommittee
appointed to hold conference with the
Precinct Democracy Committee, for the
purpose Of harmonizing both factions in
the interest of the whole Democracy of
the State, made its report. This report
states that it was decided by the two
committees that the subcommittee Of
the State Central Committee should re-
port to the State Central Committee
that il the State Central Committee
would allow the Precinct and County
Democracy 20 organize under their pres.
emit precinct system. every recognized
Democrat to be allowed the privilege OF
Joining clubs and electing delegates to
conven tons, under this system, the pre-
cinct Democracy would work in har-
mony with the County Committee De-
mocracy during the coming campaign.
The report was adopted and filed. A
committee OF three was appointed to
draft plan for the holding of the cleo
ton of delegates to the State and mu.
nicipal conventions to conform as near
as possible with the County Committees

The present Constitution Of Cali
sornia adopts the common law OF
England where applicable.
Under this provision the Supreme
Court has unwarrantably sought TO
make riparian rights at home in Cal
ifornia.
II 1t does nothing else, the special
session OF the Legislature can submit
an amendment TO the people making
the laws Of France, Spain and Mex
leo applicable in all matters Of irriga-
ton In this State. II IL should do
nothing else the session would have
been pregnant with priceless bless
ings to California.
The provision in the proposed
amendments to the Constitution guar
anteeing TO Water companies seven
per cent. net on their investments
ought to be dropped. People who
deal in water should take the chances
which men are obliged to take who
are engaged in ordinary business.
Instead Of water rates being regu-
lated only once in four years they
ought to be regulated annually.
The Governors proclamation has
nothing to do with such schemes,
which naturally suggest IA Niger in
the wood pile"
A great deal Of sympathy is sought
TO be created for the present Supreme
Court Of California, and the idea Of
practically cashiering these amiable
old gentlemen is looked upon with
horror. As matter OF fact the thing
has been done before. Every one re-
members how Chief Justice William
r. Wallace and his unusually able
and brilliant associates were sent to
the right about by the new Constitu-
ton. Chief Justice Wallace himself
said that, under the present construc-
ton OF the Court, the Chief Justice
had more power than the Emperor OF
Russia. Its organization is cumbrous
and obstructive Of justice.
When could there be better time
for recognizing this bodyP Judge
Ross has already resigned. Chief
Justice Morrison Is about to resign.
Another Judge will be compelled to
resign shortly from physical disabili-
ty. There could not possibly be a
more propitious date for this sweep
ing measure. The Court needs new
and younger blood.
What is required at Sacramento is
sharp and effective work and an early
adjournment. If, as result Of the
labors of the special session, 1t shall
appear that the old common law
doctrine of riparian rights shall have
disappeared the session will not have
been in vain. twill have been rich
ly worth what it will cost.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1886-07-23
Prompt and Decisive.

If there be any one disposed to crit
icise the Governor for his prompt and
decisive action in converting the Leg
islsture to consider without delay the
present situation in respect to water
rights---if there be any one of carp
ing turn Of mind--let him reflect that
there is much to be done and but
little time in which to do it. The UNI
expected and amazing decision of the
Supreme Court establishing the Ripa-
rian doctrine and inferentially de-
claring irrigation to be unlawful,
forces the people to act, and act with
out delay. As things now stand in
dustry is practically arrested through
out the State, development is checked
and alarm and apprehension pervade
the people. At any time iniunctions
may issue under the Riparian decis-
ion against the appropriation Of water
for agricultural uses, canals may be
interfered with, and the supply OF
water shut off from farms, vineyards
and orchards. These calamities are
not only threatened, but thay are inn
pending. They brighten the whole
community. They stop immigration.
They prevent investments, and they
render industry precarious. 1t is es-
sential, then, that steps should
be taken, and taken at once, to
remedy the evil that is already done
and avert impending disasters. The
Governor had these things in view in
assent bling the Legislature, and it is
not difficult to perceive Of what trans
cendant importance is time in such
an emergency. Delay may mean
ruin.
The remedies proposed in addition
to legislation upon water rights in
volve also Constitutional amendments
OF the very greatest possible import
ance. As suggested in the Executive
proclamation, one declares that the
water in every natural stream in the
State is to be the property OF the pub
lie, and to be devoted to the exclusive
uses OF the people; and that the right
to divert it for farming purposes, orfor
any beneficial use, shall never be in
terfered with or denied. Another
proposes the complete elimination OF
the Riparian doctrine as rule OF law
or construction from the statutes OF
the State, and still another provides
for the reorganization of the Supreme
Court. II this is done, the nominat-
ing conventions of the two parties,
shortly to assemble, ought to select
candidates for Judges, 80 as to give
ample time to the people to canvass
their qualifications and to become
familiar with their views in the ripa-
rian issue. 1t requires no argumen t
TO demonstrate that another mistake
should not be made. We have had
an experience in judicial folly that
will last for all time to come. But if
these things ought to be done, the
Governor has acted wisely in econo-
missing time. The Legislature should
do its work without unnecessary de-
lay. 1t knows what is required of it.
The people know just what steps ID is

OuR esteemed contemporary, the
Express, manages to utterly misap-
prehend the position Of the HERALD
on the question Of Republican sharp
practice in the possible attempt to
elect q successor to Mr.. Hearst, and
il drops into metaphors borrowed
from the card-table to buttress its
position. We can briefly summarize
the attitude OF the HERALp: ID We
have held that special session OF
the Legislature, called for certain spe-
cific purposes by the Governor of
California, is not "the next meeting
Of the Legislature" contemplated by
the Constitution Of the United States
in article |, section 8. (2.) We have
had in mind the old adage, first catch
your hare, then cook 1t. Our Repub-
lican friends will first have to catch a
joint session OF the Legislature be-
fore they can possibly elect sue
cessor to George Hearst. As the
Democrats have a clear majority OF
one in the Senate, through the cast
ing vote of ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
John Daggett, it is not very likely
that this joint session will take place.
A majority of both bodies in joint
session is an absolute sine qua non
to such an election. The HERALD
has reprehended in advance the
treachery Of the Republican mem
bsrs of the Legislature II they should
20 back Of their pledge contained in
their memorial to the Governor and
attempt TO gain tricky ad-
vantage for their party. The Express
says anent this that the blooded
player, when he has thrown out Il
card, and has discovered too late that
he has made mistake, does not say
to his opponent, "Sir, you see that |
have made bad mistake. l assure
you that l expect you to confine your
play to the cards l had in my own
mind. l intended you to follow suit,
and il you trump shall consider you
a knave and an oaf." Confused met
aphor is frequent source Of error.
Our contemporary simply overlooks
the fact that any player has right to
Los Angeles daily herald., 1886-07-23


IL creates some surprise, apparent
ly. to few people that the Governor
has not allowed a longer interval 10
elapse between his call and the time
assigned for the Legislature 10 meet.
But in this matter 1t should not be
forgotten that time is the essence Of
the situation. Important things have
to be done, and there is but little
time TO do them in. The State is in
a condition Of excitement and alarm.
Agitation and dismay are everywhere
apparent. The Riparian decision Of
the Supreme Court exerts u sinister
and threatening influence; industry
is checked; enterprise Is measurably
paralyzed and capital shrinks from
Investment. Assurance must be
given to the popular apprehension
and the general agitation should be
Gained without delay. This can
only be done by legislative action,
and the results TO which 1t leads. On
the assumption that the constitu-
tional amendments suggested by the
Governors proclamation, and to
which his attention was called in the
Legislative memorial, are passed
without delay, they should be sub
mitted to the people for approval at
once. One OF them contemplstes q
reorganization Of the Supreme Court.
The necessity for getting rid Of the
influence Of the Riparian decision at
the earliest day possible is apparent
TO all people. 80 long as IL remains
unchallenged by the court which pro-
nounced 1t, vested rights are liable
to accrue under 1t. These would
battle all the work Of the Legislature.
That danger must be met and crushed
at once. Should the Legislature
pass the amendments and spe-
cial election secure their approval
by the people, the two parties at their
approaching nominating conventions
will be able to place candidates for
Judges before the people who can be
voted for and the work OF regenera-
ton accomplished at the November
election. II will be seen, therefore,
that there is good reason why no UNI
necessary delay should be allowed.
When great work OF vital necessity
is to be done, delay is an obvious
evil. "That which thy hand finds to
do, do at once" is an injunction
which never appealed to the popular
understanding more forcibly than
now. A great State is to be saved
from unspeakable calamities, and
there can be no good reason offered
why the dangers which threaten
should be suffered to multiply and
become formidable by representation
and delay.
The affair cries haste, and speed
must answer it.
