THE REFORM SCHOOL.
The Governor VIII Not Sign the
Papers For II.

Papers For It.
Rumors have been rife to the effect
that His Excellency Governor Waterman
would not act as the law requires to give
validity to the plan for the new Reform
School at Whittier. There has been q
good deal of comment ON this head here
during the past week. The committee
appointed to select a site chose the one
offered by the Whittier people. 1t con-
tains forty acres, near the de-
pot at Whittier, with good
water right. DIR. Lindley and r. B.
Young, the architect, have made tour
of the East to inspect institutions of this
kind, and returning Mr.. Young pre-
pared plans for large farm and the first
building to go on the grounds. Mean
time the ground has been leveled off,
and good many ornamental trees and
shrubs have been planted. All went
emoothly until the plans for the farm
were presented to the Governor to ap-
prove, and then it was said that His Ex-
cellency stood erect and refused to act.
The total amount to be spent on the
buildings is $780, This is what makes
the matter one of great interest. The
spending OF that sum at this time would
give employment to a number OF idle
men, and help to vitalize dead period.
Naturally the public wish to know why
the game is to be blocked by the Gov
ernor's refusal to act. Learning that His
Excellency was at the Nadeau yesterday
afternoon, HERALD reporter hied him
away to ask him about this matter. He
found the Governor busily engaged in a
conversation with Major Furrey, and
Los Angeles daily herald., 1889-07-19

while awaiting an opportunity to talk,
Major Bonebrake and General r. +.
Johnson called. In due time the re-
porter's time came. 1t was evidently
with the Governor case of business
first. He reserved the interview tor
dessert.
Stating the object OF the visit to the
Governor, the reporters courage sank as
the official said: 81 will not tell you
anything"
Reporters often hear this, but get
some news for all that. Major Bone
brake and General johnson were in the
room, so desultory conversation WAS
carried ON for few moments, mostly
about the asylum. In the course OF it
Governor Waterman said in substance:
l thought | would profit by mistakes
that have been made before now in pub
lie buildings. The committee appointed
for the purpose put the university at
Berkeley. They got the land given to
them, but never said word about
water. If they had demanded it, they
might have got all the water in those
hills. Now those who own the water
want $3.50, 900 for it. l might go back fur.
| ther. There is the prison at San Quentin.
The State is now paying 81 900 month
| for water there. Then there is the
asylum at Stockton. They put that in a
swamp and we spent 100000 trying to
drain it last year. Then there is the
asylum for the feeble minded children at
Santa Clara. They putthem on miser-
able piece of adobe ground where the
trees grow about an inch year. No,
sir, will not let this $250,000 be spent
on buildings which will cover the whole
of the ground and force the boys to range
themselves along the streets or along the
| fence around the lot. l will sign nothing
| for any place of less than 160 acres. If
the school is put on hat 40 acre lot we
will have to buy 120 acres by and by,
and they will make us pay $500 an acre
for it.
The Governor then told the reporter
that be would stay here day or two,
going to San Pedro today to
look at the harbor, and getting
home next Sunday to Sacramento.
He says the Cuyamaca railroad is being
built rapidly from San Diego, but dis
claims any knowledge of the road built
up from Mexico to Deming and to be
built next to Yuma. He says it is no
part OF the projects he is connected with.

RAILROAD MOVEMENTS.
The Baltimore and Ohio Docks on
Staten Island.

Details OF the new enterprise to be under
taken by the International dock and ware house
company, the Baltimore American says, have
been made public. They contemplate tine build
ing of extensive docks and stock yards on
Staten Island and the running of steam ship
line from Liverpool to point on the island, by
which connection will be made with the Balti-
more and Ohio railroad for the west. Early in
January the Baltimore and Ohio will probably
have its road and bridge over the Arthur Kill
ready, and then. it is understood, traffic ar
rangement will be made by which the new
steam ship line can send freight and passengers
direct from Liverpool to the western part of
the North American continent by the way OF
the Baltimore and Ohio. There will be no
necessity of transferring freight by ferry. Pas
sengers and freight landed at Clifton, or
wherever the International dock and ware
house company has its wharf, can be taken by
the Baltimore and Ohio directly west by simply
encircling Staten Island and crossing the river
by the bridge over the Arthur Kill, now nearly
completed. The dock company, it is reported,
has already received land and water front for
the docks and will soon begin building. 80 as to
be ready shortly after the Baltimore and Ohio's
new line to st. George Is completed. Bids have
already been invited for the construction OF the
docks. Work is to be pushed along at rapid
rate. The company which has under taken this
enterprise is made up of both English and
American capitalists The president Of the
company is A. b. Stickney, president of the
Chicago, st. Paul and Kansas City railroad.
