WHY He soUIRMs.

The interior press appears to understand
perfectly the reason of the opposition of the
Chronicle newspaper TO the Grand Jury
a principal part of the duty of that body
viii be- to investigate the alleged sale Of
votes in the two Houses of the Legislature
not only on the Electric Road Bill, the Co
lusa Bill, the Glenn County Bill the Police
Bill aud the Insurance Bill. but also in the
contest for United States Senator. In that
contest the proprietor of the Chronicle was
participant, and it was observed with sur
prise that he got block of some twenty
one votes from this city and no more, and
further, that at given stage In the proceed
ings those twenty-one votes were trans
ferred to Mr.. FELTON,. There was cut-and-
dried air about the proceeding which was
suggestive of anything but the calm and
mature deliberstion which should influence
members of the Legislature in choosing a
representative Of the State in the Federal
Senate. 1t is not surprising that scanda-
lous stories, impugning the motives of NJ.
h. de Young's supporters, should have
been current at the time.
1t is believed that the matter has already
engaged the attention of the Grand Jury
and has BEEN set aside for further considera-

before the Grand Jury going to show that

ments against all who have violated the
law, whether they figured as bribers or
brbed, or go-betweens.

subject But in common with citizens gen.

HANGS By A THREAD.

Mr.. Gladstone's recent speech at New
castle intimates to the House OF Lords that
a condition of its existence is that it shall
refrain from asserting Whatever opinion it
may entertain. This covert threat was
brought out by the reference Lord Sails
bury had recently made to the possible in
reference Of the House Of Lords II Liberal
House of Commons should pass home
rule bill. In Mr.. Gladstone's opinion, If
the Lords should reject any important bin
passed by the Commons public sentiment
would be created that would lead to the
abolition OF the Lords as a branch of the
Iaw-making power. An intimatiOn Of this
kind could come with better grace from
Mr.. Gladstone than from almost any other
Commoner of distinction. Mr.. Gladstone
has steadily declined to be made n peer.
He has preferred TO remain In the Commons
and to be addressed by the title common to
all men. Most Engiishmen snap at chance
to become enrolled in the hereditary branch
of Lawmakers. Disraeli spent the better
part of his lie In the Commons, but In his
last days accepted an earld0m as the price

CONGLOMER ATE FUEL.

AS every one knows there is coal in CALI
fornia, but it is too deficient in carbon and
contains too much water and volatile matter
to possess much value for heating or steam
purposes. If, 10y any process, the percentage
Of carbon could be increased and portion
of the volatile matter and water expelled
the product OF our State mines might be-
cone marketable, and a resource of value
created. A similar problem confronted the
French in the early part of the century, and
experiments for the mixture of light Goals
with carbOniferouS substances were under
taken. For a series of years they were not
particularly successful, but of late ingenious
minds have concentrated attention on the
subject with satisfactory results. Last
year the product of cOnglomeraie fuel, or
"briquettes," amounted to 100000 tons.
These briquettes are made by mixing re-
fuse coal, coal dust, or light Ignite coal with
pitch, the resduum Of coal tar after diStilla-
tion-in the proportion of to 10 per cent of
pitch to 90 or "a per cent of coal. The pitCh
is largely imported from England, and costs
about four times as much as coal. ElabO-
rate machinery has been invented for the
manufacture OF the briquettes. and they are
used to a considerable extent on the French
railways and in the Frenrh navy.
Our gas works in this State are too few
and small to supply much coal tar for the
manufacture of pitch. But we have in our
asphaltum mines a natural product which
viii take its place The article with which
cur street, are being paved and which is
known as bituminous pavement can be
mixed with our light Goals in such manner
as to constitute conglomerate fuel with
large heating power ExpPriments are
being made at the present time to find
proper method of blend ng the two sub
stances, but so far as appears on the sur
face the promoters of these enterprises are
more intent on a stock operation than on
the discovery of an industrial process. 1t is
hardly likely that success will crown the
piOnesr efforts in this enterprise. 1t took
the French three-Quarters of a century to
learn how to utilize their cheap Goals. 1t
may not take Us as long; but it will probably
take long enough 10 exhaust the patience of

UroP1AN SCHEMES OF REFORM.

The Chronicle wants to have the Grand
Jury declared illegal for the reason among
others that the Republican member ap-
pointed by the elis0r is ''as full of Utopian
schemes of reform as 40 egg Is OF meat"
Most people will admit that good deal can
be done in the way of reform before we reach
Utopian schemes. The average reformer
win endeayor to check glaring abuses Of
public confidence before he takes up impFac-
teal work. One Of the reforms the Grand
Jury has in its mind is to prevent the use Of
money to influence law-making bodies
This certainly is not Utopian. Another is
TO prevent the use Of money to obtain Offices
Of power or profit. This certainly is not
Utopian. These two reforms belong to an
average condition OF society. The world
over, the man who sells a trust is a scoun-
dre. a vote in a Legislature or in the
Board Of Supervisors or in the Board Of
Education is a trust Is that reform Ito
plan which aims to punish such offenses
1t is notorious that at the last Senatorial
election man received q votes for Senator
who, 1t is believed. could not cou Mt
upon much more than "a popular votes
for that office In the entire State. Does
any one suppose that these a holders of
trust made this base use of it without con-
sIderation? Is movement Of reform which
proposes TO ascertain the facts OF the casa

Supervisors Have Power to Extend the
Close Season.
A meeting Of the Sportsmen's Protective
Association was held last night in K. r. B..
Hall, Chairman Leek presiding. and c. T.
Fitzsimmons acting as Secretary. 1t was
reported that the club had secured reduced
rates on the North Pacific Coast Railroad
for members desiring to hunt or fish.
A communication was read from Attor-
pey-General Hart stating that the law au-
thorizing Boards of Superv sorS to make
regulations for the protection of game and

il respects game, was repealed by the act
passed later ION the same day., which can

Of the Legislature will. in the opinion of
the A ttorney-General, prevail. aud conse-

the time in the statute last adopted.
This communication was received in re-
Spouse to a request from the association, as
1t was reported that change in the game
season had been made by the Supervisors
Of Colusa County. No action was taken by
the association in regard to the communca-
ton.

THE WORK MAY 60 ON.

The Supreme Court has thrown the
agreed case IN respect to the Gage con-
tempt out of court. II does not allow 1t
legal pin to stand upon. 1t declares that
only a person indicted by the Grand Jury
and convicted by trial court can test the
legality If the Grand Jury in the Supreme
Court. This leaves the Grand Jury free to
20 on with its work. 1t can, through the
Superior Court, compel the attendance oil
witnesses and require witnesses to answer
questions, with the saving clause that the
witness may not be made to testify against
himself. Judge Murphy seems to have
made sacrifice of himself for nothing. lie
set Chute free on the ground that the Grand
Jury that summoned him was not legally
constituted jury But the Supreme Court
now says that a witness cannot raise the
question Of the Grand Jury's legality. 1t
would seem, therefore, that if Judge Muir
ply should set another witness free the
Supreme Court would have something to
say about it. Under the Supreme Court de-
cision there does not seem any way to save
Mr.. Gage and other witnesses summoned by
the Grand Jury from telling all they can
rec0liect about the influences brought to
bear in the last Legislature to procure the
ators. 1t is not expected that any of them
will take a first class memory upon the
stand But the reluctance of such men as
Gage and Chute to tell what they do re-
member is at least an intimation that they
remember something. We do not expect
that the boodlers have exhausted their re-
sources in the way of legal subtevfu ges TO
avoid giving testimony. We think, how
ever, that future endeavorS of this character
will come ,e grief. The people sustain the
Grand Jury, and will as long as it continues
to do its duty. The popular condem nation
Of the attempt to throw the jury off the
track OF the boodlers has been so emphatic
that the mex judge that is applied to Will
doubtless proceed with more caution. As
we have said, the Grand Jury may now
proceed with its work. 1t may test the
question whether bOOdeTism is so strongly

THE CAMPAIGN OF EDUCATION.

Congressman Bynum is reported as hav-
ing said at the mass-meeting Monday night:
eli Mr. Mckinley believed that the for
eiEner paid the duty, why did he sacrii e
nearly S6OOO0,OOO Of revenue on sugar and
expend another S10,000,000 in the way Of
bounty to do SOP" Nj Mckinley did not
believe that the foreigner paid the duty on
sugar. Neither did he believe that the for
eiEuer pays the duty, when there IS one, on
tea and coffee. Mr.. Mckinley knows per-
fectly well that on articles we do not pro-
duce at all the consumer pays whatever
duty nav be laid. II was because he knew
this that he took the duty of sugar and
kent TIE duties off tea and Coffee. But
there is a class of articles which we produce
in this country TO considerable extent and
which we also import. We may take WOODEN
cloth as an example. Assuming that we
can make a pretty good grade Of cloth for
81 a yard. and that European manufae-
turers can produce an equally good grade
for SIS a yard, and that we put duty OF 81
a yard on the foreign article, it is clear that
to get this cloth into our market the foreign
manufacturer must pay the duty. He can
not get more for his goods than the Ameri-
can cloth sells at. II he should refuse to
pay the duty the American manufacturer
would supply the market. And If there
were no duty on cloth the foreign manu-
facturer would supply the market unless
The American manufacturer could reduce
the cost of production. This is the point
where the labOTer comes in. The American
manufacturer paying American rates of
wages could manufacture this supposed
variety of cloth at 81 yard. The Euro
pean manufacturer. having cheaper labor
at his command, can produce an equally
good cloth for 50 yard. Let us suppose
now that a free-trade party is in power,
and takes the duty off cloth. what does
tie American manufacturer do? he has
thousands of dollars in his works, and to
shut them down would entail severe loss.
Rather than submit to his loss he makes an
effort to manufacture at So yard, the En-
ropean cost. Labor stands the brunt of al
such reductions. There is almost always a
surplus of labor, and the employer throws
as much of an inevitable loss on them as Is
practical. We do not suppose that we are
giving Mr.. Bynum any Information. The
workings of protective tariff are familiar
to him. But he assumed that there were
persons in the audience who might be mis-
led by such arguments as he used.

CAMP MACDONALD.
Rifle Competition Between the Army and
the Guard,


the Guard.
Colonel Thomas f. Barry couldshardly
contain! himself We sterday for joy on ac-
count of assurances received from teams
that will enter at Camp Macdonald, the
army and National Guard rifle competition
of the Third Infantry Regiment, n. G. c.,
during its encampment of two days at
Sehuetzen Park, near San Rafael. on Satur-
day and Sunday. Five teams of five men
each will enter from as many companies of
the First Infantry. U. S. A., stationed at
Angel Island, and one from a battery OF the
Fifth Artillery at the Preside.
These will attend the camp in charge of
some commissioned officer, and will take
along tents and camp equpage sufficient for
the two days Then three teams from the
Nationals have been entered by Lieutenant
Subtitle, and as one OF the teams Is very con-
tdent OF winning the trophy in this compe-
tition, volunteer company of the corps is
going over On Sunday in fatigue
uniform to whoop up the team. In
the first of these three teams is
Corporal Chris Meyer, who on Sunday
scored 23S out of a possible $50 at 200 yards.
and made only bull s-eyes on the last two
strings of ten shots each.
Then with the other teams from the First
Infantry, several from the Second Artillery,
one from the Fifth Infantry, one from the
much-talked-of of the First Artillery
from Sacramento, and at least one from
each of the seven companies of the regi-
ment, there are reasonable assurances of at
least twenty teams, with no little rivalry
among the National Guard teams, and much
more between them and Uncle Sans boys.
General Dickinson and staff will visit the
camp on Sunday. but the battalion will
leave on Saturday morning and the men
will themselves do the work of pitching
the camp.
10 main Thomaa Parrv Eirc+ T.,
fantry, U. S. A., has agreed, if possible. to
bring over the targets used In skirmish
firing and to demonstrate to any detail of ten
men how this shooting at the skirmish target
is done in the army and how 1t will have to
be done in the guard under the new tactics.
Then, also. the other military attractions of
the camp will, no doubt, draw many spec
tators on the two days, and the Third will
have reason to congratulate itself upon the
success of its encampment.
