of more than thirty and under one hun
dred thousand inhabitants. If this is 30,
then the portion of the charter objected
to on the grounds heretofore stated
is also unconstitutional in another point
of view, in this, that it is obnoxious to
the so-called Whitney act, which is ad-
verted to by the appellate court, in the
lately decided bank case, eT porte
All You, No. 20,5S6. 1t was there de-
cided that the freeholders' charter of the
city of Oakland, a city of the same class
with Los Angeles, was subject to the
provisions of the act above men-
toned, the same being here q general"
law and to be found in the constitution
of 1885, page 213; and that the Police
Court under the charter had no exist
ence and no jurisdiction to try misde-
meanors or any other offenses known to
law. 1t follows, therefore, as it seems to
as, that the Police Judge of Los Angeles
had no jurisdiction or authority as an
examining or committing magistrate,
and that there WAS no authority at law
for filing the information against the de-
fendant herein, and therefore his motion
to set aside his information should have
been granted. We therefore advise
that the judgment and order be re-
versed.
This opinion was signed by Justices
Foote and Gibson and was concurred in
by Justice Patterson. Justice Fox gave
dissenting opinion.
Police Judge Stanton is of the opinion
that the decision of the Supreme Court
in the Toal case only affects him as a
committing magistrate and he an
nounced his intention yesterday of con-
tinuing to hold his position as Police
Judge in so far as city cases and misde-
meanors are concerned. He is deter
mined to call for rehearing of the Toal

THE WORKS,

C.. DIXON, of the Salamander
Works, left Monday for St. Charles
and Warrenton to look at proposed
locations for the Salamander Works
of this city. He says the works
are likely to be moved from Mex
leo at once on account of annoyance
caused the company by some of the
people who live in Mexico. Mum
berless lawsuits are being brought
on account of the smoke, and COM
plants are being made because the
fire in the kilns are kept up on
Sunday. Attempts are being made
by citizens in West Mexico to open
streets through the property just
bought in order to keep them from
building. etc. He says the
company does not want to stay in
a town whose people are trying all
the time to run it out. The loss of
the Salamander would be a crush
ing blow to Mexico. 1t would set
us back ten years. We cry out for
factories and then allow the one
we have to be driven from our city.
Same public action we think
should be taken BY our people in
regard to this matter, and at once.
If the Salamander leaves we might
as we'll fence up the Square and
plant it in potatoes. Other towns
put up with smoke. Other
towns are asking for the smoke
Other towns are offering big money
for the smoke. A thousand smoke.
stacks would make Mexico a city.
