MtNICIPAL LEGIsLANoN,
The Bingham Ordinance Declared. to- be
| Constitutional.


SAN FRANCISCO, April 16th.-Fiye China
men were recently convicted in Police
Judge LAWYERS Court and fined from $3.50
to $500 each for gambling and keeping
gambling houses. They appealed to the
Superior Court, which appeals have been
dismissed by Judge Van Reynegom. The
Court referred to Section $50 of the Penal
Code, which makes gambling a misde-
meanor, punishable by fine of not less
than 500 or more than 81 900. The COM
plant was drawn under Order 1855, known
as the Bingham order of the municipal
ordinances.
Counsel for the defendant claimed that
Section $50 of the Penal Code was exclusive
in its provisions, and that it was not within
the province of the Board of Supervisors
to provide for such punishment by ordi-
nance. The Court cited the case of Chen
y zen, decided by our Supreme Court in 1882
(6o' Cal), when it was held that ordinances
Furnishing persons for visiting games is not
in conflict with Section $50 or the Constita-
ton Of the State, and will support judg-
ment of conviction.
The Court added: "In matters coming
within the general legislative powers of the
municipal corporation, and not fully coy-
cred by the State law, the better opinion
seems to be that the corporation should
have power to make new, further and
more definite regulations to enforce them
with suitable penalties"

SILVER QUESTION.
An Unlimited Free Coinage Bill WIN
Likely Pass Both Houses,


WASHINGTON, April l6th.-The House
Republican Committee on the silver cues.
ton this morning heard the report of the
sub, committee to confer with the sub com
mittee of the Senate Republican Commit
tee, with view to coming to basis of
agreement.
Tie subcommittee reported that it had
been agreed that the bill should provide
for the purchase of four and half million
ounces of silver every month the certif-
Gates issued in payment thereof to be re-
deemsble in lawful money.
At first, it is said, the members of the
full committee were inclined to adopt this
basis, and voted to do so.
Afterwards, however, in discussing the
manner of redeeming the certificates, senti-
ment developed in favor of making them
redeemable in bullion.
This proposition was advocated by ma
Jorlty OF the committee, and the sub. COM
mittee was instructed to again confer with
the Senate sub committee, and endeavor to
induce them to agree to provide for the re-
demption of certificates in accordance with
the views of the House committee.
A meeting of the committee will be
held this afternoon for that purpose.
A member of the Senate Sub COMMITTEES
said. in conversation upon the subject,
tnat no sucn agreement as that would be
recommended by his vote. He did not be-
lieve there were five Senators who favored
the redemption of silver in bullion. The
Senator said it was expected that at first
the cost of the silver purchased would be
less than $4,500,0O0 month. But that
under the operations of the bill the price
will be so enhanced that in a short time
the cost of silver would probably surpass
that sum.
1t was also expected, he said, that for the
time at least other silver than the product
of the mines of the United States would be
necessary to make up the full amount of
the monthly purchases.
Another Senator said it was rapidly be-
coming manifest that an agreement must
be reached by the Republicans, else
proposition would be made for un-
limited free coinage and would pass both
Houses

day OF execution has not been fixed.

AN UNfAIR BASIS

lt is customary to estimate the
population of cities upon the num-
ber OF votes east at elections, Such
estimates are usually based upon tho
thcory that each voter represents n
family offrom three to re vou persons.
An average of five Is thus arrived
at, and In the older states this Is
probably n fair basis OF comparison,
but In the now Northwest the same
rulo can not bo applied without
great Injustice.
A circumstance that renders II inn
possible TO estimate the population
OF Spokane Folls upon the vote cast
at municipal election ls the fact
that under the laws heretofore exist
Ing the city had not tho power to
extend Its limits TO include all the
people residing here. Under this
condition OF affairs nearly one.half
the people Of Spokane Falls ARE resi-
dents of outlying additions and not
entitled 10 yo,o ut nn election for
city officers. Under the law recently
passed by the Legislature these addl-
tions may be brought into the city
limits, but until this is done thsir
inhabitants can have no representa-
ton In the vote cast nt u city cleo
ton, and consequently can not bo
counted In any estimate OF the pop
uiatlon that Is based upon the NUM-
Der of votes cast. Although residing
