EDITORIAL NOTES.

The Federal Election Bill reported by
Senator Hoar 10 the Senate has been de-
nounced by Senator Pxgh as revolutionary
In its character, for it substantially wipes
out the regulation of Congressional cleo
tions by the States. The Alabama Senator
asserted that its execution would ensure
the shedding of blood. The Senator from
Massachusetts claims that the bill is in SUBJ
stance a modification and. perfection of a
system which had been the law of the
United States for many years and had Sc
cured in the main honest elections and
honest counts in New York. The measure
follows in the line suggested by President
Harrison in his first message to Congress.
Canadian legislators evidently are not In
favor of a continuance of the modus
vivendi. The act just approved by the
Commons enacts that tue Governor in
Council may authorize the Issuance of
licenses to United States fishing vessels to
enter port TO purchase bait, ice, seines, lines
and supplies and for the transhipment of
fish, the fee being 81 30 per ton. 1t is
claimed that it is still left to the discretion
of the Dominion Government TO enforce all
the harsh regulations which have excited
the resentment of the Americans engaged
in the fisheries.
The suspicion that there was something
crooked about the Apothecary Department
of the City and County Hospital was veri-
fed yesterday by the investigation of the
Board of Health, which, as a result, de-
clared the position held by C. L. Wagner
vacant. 1t was shown that by means of
collision the city was defrauded out of ex-
pensve drugs, and that unknown to the
physicians their prescriptions were altered,
other ingredients being substituted to cover
up the fraud. Such proceeding was re-
garded as more than criminal
The postal service is profitable source
of income to the railroads which carry the
vast bulk of the mails nowadays. The
Government paid them last year nearly
$4,000, 900 for Transporting the mails, and
81, 100000 for the rental of cars, the postal
clerks receiving S5,6oo,0OO for their services
The Appropriation Bill for next year pro-
vides S21, 275 for inland transportation
by railroad routes, $3.50, 600 for the railway
postoffice service, and S5.910.0O0 for rail-
way postoflice clerks.
The construction of the new navy and the
prospects of legislation by Congress for the
encouragement of the merchant marine
have wonderfully stimulating effect on
the sbip-bullding trade along the Atlantic.
This is at present noticeable in Maine,
where the hum of building has taken the
place of silence, difficulty having been ex-
perienced in some instances in obtaining
enough skilled shipwrights.
While the Southern Congressman sue
ceeded in inducing the Committee on Rivers
and Harbors to agree to an appropriation of
1900. 900 for Galveston Harbor, not more
than million to be expended in any one
year, Senator Gibson and Representative
Coleman have persuaded Secretary Tracy
to ask the Senate Committee on Naval At
fairs to provide for a dry-dock and naval
station at New Orleans.

for which there is no legitimate demand. If the
demand is legitimate production will go on with
out Government aid.
The Secretary confounds the silver question
with the money question The production OF sill
yer and The market for 1t may be safely In
trusted TO private enterprise. The creation of
money is an act of sovereignty over which pri-
vate enterprise has no control. On the contrary,
all attempts on the part of private persons TO
create money are punished as criminal offenses.

Harry Kay, while working on building
at the corner of Page and Scott streets yes
terday fell from a swinging stage to the
ground, distance of twenty-five feet, and
received injuries which will probably prove
fatal.
The platform on which he sat was not very
safe and because he failed TO exercise ex-
IRENE care he t0ppled from his precarious
position. He was removed to the City Re-
ceiving Hospital, where Police Surgeon
Bunker treated him. The bones of his
right foot and ankle were badly shattered,
which may necessitate amputating the limb
In the course of few DAYS. He also re-
ceived severe internal injuries and bruises
of the face and head.
Kay is middle-aged man and unmarried.

Harper Pitches Pennant Ball and Defeats
the Colonies.
SACRAMENTO, July 13.-At to-day's game
over 1000 spectators were present. Before
the game commenced Manager and Captain
Stapleton protested against the game on
the grounds that Oakland had but nine
men in uniform on the field. The Senators
won and the protest will be withdrawn.
Mcdonald was suffering from split finger,
and played right field, Charles Sweeney
playing second.
Harper pitched pennant ball, allowing
four hits, including triple and a home
run. He had good control of the ball, CIV
but two bases and striking out eight men.
Carsey was touched up lively, but his poor
support materially increased Sacramento's
score.
DUNCAN played fine outfeld, catching
four difficult flies, and at the bat no hit out
a home run. Reitz again played phenom-
email game. gathering in everything that
came his way. DAILY led in batting. secur-
ing three not singles that drove in four
runs over the plate.
Carsey made a magnificent drive over
Roberts head for three bags, but was put
out trying to score a home run through
bohman's poor coaching. Lehman struck
out four times and Bowman famed three
times.
DAILY was fined SIS by Umpire Donahue
for disputing decision. Donahue umpired
fairly. Norris O'Neil made three school
boy errors, allowing number of runs to be
scored. Stickney made two fine stops but
threw wild to first.
Goodenough and DAILY hit for singles in
the first, but Goodenough was put out al
third. DAILY stole second and scored on
Stickney's error.
The Oaklands scored their two runs in
the first inning on G. O'NeilE's base on balls
and DunRan's home run.
In the second Roberts hit for q single,
went to second on Reitz's base on balls and
scored on McHale's single. In the fourth
Roberts double and Reitz' triple gave the
Senators one run. In the seventh three

ice gave the home team five runs.

An Oakland paper in paragraph about
RObinson's pitchers says: AS for little
Carsey, he does the best he can and that is
all that can be expected from any pitcher.
The boy twirleT, however, has much to
learn and is not adverse to receiving good
advice from older and wiser players. That's
why he will make a successful twirler." If
Carsey has had anything to learn since he
came to California it was only the batting
weaknesses of the various players who
faced him in the box. The young fellow
played with and against clubs that would
bury California League teams out Of sight.
and he has prOhted by his experience. No;
Master Carsey hasn't much to learn in base
ball. AS for fielding the position he over
tops every twirler in the league, and so far
as his pitching is concerned the number of
games he won will tell the tale,
Mr. Coghlan, the gentleman who had
a disastrous experience at the Slough City
recently. sends the following letter:
STOCKTON. July Is, 1890.
Mr.. EdttOT: Kindly allow me through the
columns OF your valuable paper to make few
remarks In regard TO the part that Director
Adams PLAYED in last SUNDAYS row Ho fold
Selma TO lick me and that he would nav his fine fine
II he was fined. AS soon as the game was over
he rushed into the dresslng-room and conferred
with Selma. When went TO the dressng-roOm
TO get my ciOthes Adams was pretending TO be
holdil- Selma; but as soon as went toward my
locker he let him go so that he could hit
ME. All statements that l began the fight or
used any foul language toward Selma or any
person else are false in the highest sense of the
word.
The sooner that men OF Director Adams
stamp sever their connection with base ball, the
better for the game. l am most respectfully
yours. GEO. V. CoGHLAN.
In the game OF July 4th at Sacramento.
Perrot was al bat for Stockton, with two
men out, and FOgarty was on first. After
one or two balls had been pitched Fogarty
was thrown out at second base. AT the
Stoektons' next turn to bat, Kilroy batted
In place Of Perrott and reached first on an
error. The scorer notified the umpire that
kilroy had batted out of turn, and there
upon Kilroy was called out for batting out
Of turn. The umpire sent him to bat again
In place of Cahill, who was next ON the
score-card. BY his ruling Kilroy went to
bat twice In one inning. IL Kiroy had
reached first second time he should have
again been called out for Eating in Cahill's
turn.

and it is understood that rule abridging

be somewhat shorter, but quite as compre-
hensive as the one suggested early in the
session by Senator Chandler. 1t will pro-
vide that at the request, through its Chair
man, of the committee having in charge
any bill, the presiding officer shall enter

bate, to close all discussion on the bill itself
or on any amendment to it, which may be
pending The chair is also to be authorized
to count, as forming part of a quorum, all

$500 in cash and jewelry was Sc
cured by the burglars. A. M. Bird,
who occupies Room As, on wax
ing up this morning, noticed his

cts were strewn about the floor. On look
ing through his pockets he found that $50
In coin and $500 In bills were missing. MIR.
Birds suite of rooms are off the front YER
anda on the second story. Entrance was
effected through the window from

burglar passed the veranda to their apart
ments and secured jewelry consisting. of
watch, diamond brooch, diamond earrings,
ETC., worth about $780, This jewelry had
been in the family for many generations,
and was invaluable to its possessors. No
clew whatever OF the identity of the bur-
glar has been obtained.
