IN MASSACHUSETTS.

The Massachusetts Legislature has re-
fused to submit the amendment to the Con-
stitution providing for biennial elections.
There was majority in favor Of the
amendment. but the Constitution requires
two-thirds of the votes cast. The yeas were
116, but las were necessary. The Repub
lieans cast party majority of 81 for the
amendment, and the Democrats party
majority of 81 against it. An amendment
abolishing the poll-tax requirement met
with better success. There were 161 votes
in its favor. Both parties gave majorties
for the amendment; the Democratic vote
was nearly solid, but one may" being re-
corded. When General Butler was can
didate for Governor of Massachusetts he
greatly increased his vote by paying the
poll-taxes- of voters who were not able or
not willing to pay for the privilege of vot-
ing. As this was a kind of electioneering
which bore a distant resemblance to pur
chase of votes, an agitation was commenced
to eliminate the provision of the State Con-
stitution which made the payment of poll
tax a condition Of the exercise OF the fran

OUTLINE OF A RING.

The action of the Senate in passing Britts
hill to hand the Fire Department over to the
Board of Supervisors serves to make more
distinct the outline of a political combina-
ton which has been dimly foreshadowed for
some time past It is known, of course. that
the Consolidation Act makes the Fire De
partment a coordinate branch of the city
government The Britt bill authorizes the
Supervisors, whenever it may be deemed
expedient by the board, to take complete
control Of the Fire Department. The Su-
peryisors may provide and authorize the
appointment and continued employment of
such assistant engineers, members, fremen,
employees and other help in and for said
Fire Department, in addition to those whose
employment is now authorized by law, as
: the needs OF such department may require"
etc. In like manner authority is given the
Supervisors to purchase engines, machinery
aud other apparatus as may be necessary.
When this Senate bill, which went through
that body with 4 snap, is read in connection
. with the Burling order, which has passed
the Supervisors, the purpose of the Legisla-
ture to turn the Fire Department over to the
Supervisors becomes apparent. The San
Francisco delegation to the Legislature is
doing the bidding of the Crimmins-Kelly-
De Young combination witt diligence that
would be commendable in better canse.
That combination has had the power to cast
twenty-four votes for the most disreputable
of its members for Senator, and boasts of its
ability to secure the additional twenty-five
Republican votes necessary to control a
caucus. To say nothing of the influence of
sack" which the combination is abun-
dainty able to open at the decisive moment,
the combination claims to hold the political
future Of any San Francisco aspirant in its
hands. It claims the ability to promote its
friends and punish its enemies. Men about
town are wondering where the most dis
reputable member of the Criinmins-Kel
De Young combination gets the strength he
has displayed in the Senatorial contest. By
what influence is a quarter of the Repub-
Iican strength given to man who has never
done anything for the party he was not
paid for doing2 The source from which De
Young's strength comes is apparent. The
CrImmins and Kelly combination. which
controlled the last legislative and municipal
convention, has taken mike" into full
partnership.

NOT In THE LIST.

The Chronicle has made extracts from in
terror journals which have been induced to
sa5 good word for its proprietor, but among
them we have not noticed the following
from the Willows journal of last Tuesday:
DE YoUNG's CANDIDACY.
The talk that DE Young Strands show OF being
elected United States Senator is all clap-trap.
He is well aware OF the fact that II Is utterly i'm
possible for rson OF his reputation, honestly
obtained, as a blackmailer and diSrepurable
newspaper proprietor, 10 be elected. No Legis
lature in the State OF California could be found
which would so misreDresent its constituents as
the election OF DE Young would do. No matter
how corrupt avaricnus 1t might be we still
give the average California Legislator credit
for having some pride for his State.
Neither does Air. dc Young seriously believe
he is a Ddidate but for sake Of prestige In the
East he is willing to pay reasons BILE amount of
money to be considered as Candidate. Should
he be even placed in nomination, in caucus or
before he elseting tribunal, the who pro-
poses his name commits political suicide and
shows conclusively that money was the prime OBJ
feet.
The Republicans committed serious error In
sending him to the National Convention in 1888.
Another impoIfic AID degrading record in the
history OF our State was his appointment as Com
missioner 10 the Worlds Fair, but nothing would
so reflect on the Republican party and our people
at large as to actually have Mike de Young con-
sldered as a bona-iide candidate
The morning call., 1891-03-13
CARLISLE a CANDIDATE.

The Washin gton correspondent OF the BoS-
ton Journal CT edits the report that Senator
Carlisle of Ken lucky will go before the next
Democratic National Convention for the
Presidential nomination. The Democracy ap-
pear 10 be testing the popularity OF one prom
inent man after another in the hope of find
ing one that will enable them to do without
Cleveland. Hill was at one time regarded
as the most likely man to settle upon. but
since he acceI ted the Senatorship he is not
much talked of. 1t has often been said that
Carlisle would make strong candidate but
for the fact that he is Southern man. He
himself has said that it would be imprudent
to nominate man from the South until the
Republicans led the way. The principal OBJ
lection to MIR. Carlisle is that he is an out
and out free-trader. He is a much ADLER
and better balanced man than Mills of
Texas, whose name is attached to the tariff
bill Carlisle and Cleveland were equally re-
spoBsibe for, but the Democratic leaders
who want TO get rid of Cleveland want a
candidate less conspicuous than Mr.. Cleye-
land in his advocacy of free trade. good
many Democrats are convinced that for
years to come, if ever, no free-trader can be
elected President.

UNDER THE NEW LAW.

Although the Ballot Reform Bill has not
yet been signed by the Governor, there is no
harm in anticipating its probable AFFECT
should it become Il law The local RepuD-
itcan machine is now in the hands OF the
Crimmins- KeIIy-De Young combination.
These men, and others who work IN bar
mony with them, will probably control the
next Republican legislative aud municipal
conventions. The combination has the lines
which guide the machine as completely IN
its hands as Buckley had in the Demo-
cratic party. When the next municipal and
legislative conventions convene, that COM
bjnation will, unless meantime oYerthroWn,
nominate candidates from the head TO the
foot of the ticket. At this point the ne"
law will enable decent citizens 60 offer the
voters candidates OF the same national poll
tics. who are not under control of the local
machines. There will be Senator to elect
for the long term, and the CTimmins-keily-
De Young ring will nominate candidates
who will pledge themselves to vote for De
Young or any other aSpirant the ring may
desire to elect. But under the new law five
per cent Of the voters of any legislative dis
trict can put an ind ependent name on the
official ticket whom voters may designate
without the ieast prejudice to their party
standing Within the party it will be ring
and antj-riDg. Both candidates will count
as Republicans. and be subject to the ordi-
nary rules of party management Escape
from ring rule will be easy under the pro
visions of the law. II majority of the
voters want ring rule they can have it; but
if there is majority who do not think that
the Crimmins- Kelly-De \ Dung combination
is good for the city, they an overthrow it
on a single election. THE CALL worked for
the election of the Republican legislative
ticket in November. partly because we be-
lieved that the Republican party would give
the State a ballot reform law. We had no
faith in Democratic prOteStations of friend
ship for the pill, for the reason that Buckley
had refused TO pass such bill when he had
the power 1t is true the Democratic
minority did better service in behalf Of the
bill at this session than the Republican
majority, but it does not by any means fol-
low that thu Democrats would have given
the bill such cordial support had Buckley
been at the head of Democratic affairs. The
ballot reform law will stand between the
people ana boss rule. For this reason it was
opposed two years ago by Buckley, and this
year by the Crimmins-Kelly-De Young COM

years or become naturalized citizens of the

vents corporations, more than 30 per cent of
whose stock is held by nonresident aliens, from
holding lands in the Slate.

ELEc11NG UNITED STATES SENATORS

An Eastern Republican journal says:
There is growing sentiment in favor OF
eleeting United States Senators by the peo-
pie at large ms tead of by Legislature"
Such a sentime Mt may be growing, but
good many United States Senators will
be elected before the Constitution can be
amended so as to permit Senators to be
elected by popular vote. Every corpora
ton in the country will oppose it openly or
covertiy. All the aspirants who are willing
to purchase seats in the Senate will declare
such an amendment impracticable. As a
matter Of fact it will be difficult. From 1903
until 1862 the Constitution was not amended
The abolition of slavery and the enfran-
chisement of freedmen made amendments
absolutely necessary, but in ordinary times
and for ordinary reasons the processes
would be slow and tedious. But without
an amendment parties may adopt the prac-
ttce of naming Senatorial candidates in
State conventions. A nomination so made
would be as binding on the members of the
Legislature as the obligation now resting
upon Presidential Electors to vote for their
party candidates for President and Vice
President

A GERMAN LINE TO GUATEMALA.

1t is announced that the Government of
Guatemala has agreed to pay a subsidy to a
German line of steamers TO make monthly
trips between Hamburg and the ports of
Guatemala. The sum mentioned in the dis
patches is 50 small that it will not tempt
German ship-owners. 1t will probably be
found that the subsidy, in one way or
another, is to be considerably larger,
especially as the conditions of the contract
are that the steamers are to carry immi-
grants and Government freight at half
rates.
Another question which is suggested by
the dispatch is, to what port Of Guatemala
are the German steamers to run? Guatemala
has, in fact only one seaport at which
steamers touch, namely; San Jose, on the
Pacific, which is connected with the capital
by rail. On the Atlantic side there is a
point on the coast known as Livingston, at
she mouth of Gulfo DuIce, where it is said
that roadstead might be made with little
dredging and jetty. But there is as yet no
port there to which steamers could run and
where they could unload cargo; nor, if they
could, is there any transportation for freight
or. passengers from Livingston to the in
terror. 1t would seem that the design must
be that the German vessels are TO run to
San Jose, going round the Horn. To sup
port such line very large subsidy would
be required.
We judge that the story viii turn out to be
the expression of hope rather than the an
nonncement OF fact. The Germans have
got pretty good foothoId in Guatemala /;
some of the finest coffee plantations have
fallen into their hands. II would suit til EN-
we'll to have line of steamers TO Hamburg,
and still better to have a steady stream of
eliable German immigration into their
tropical fields. But unless the Kosm0s Com
paAy is administered by very adventurous
set IF Directors, it will be slow to advertise
the line that is announced until the GHate-
malan Government offers a very liberal
subsidy indeed, and gives some sort Of
guarantee that it will be faithfully paid.

the land. Mr.. Blair is reported by another
paper as having qualified his anti-Chinese
remarks, declaring that his structures upon
Chinese had been uttered, not against them
as nation, shut against their habits
and influence as they find expression on the
Pacific Coast" No one contends that the
Chinatown of San Francisco is a fair repre-
sentation of the general condition of Chi
nese society. 1t is simply representation
of the customs and habits of the class that
our laws exclude. That there are Chinese
in China of an entirely different character
is q matter of small importance to us. Our
laws exclude the kind of Chinese that make
Chinatown. The largest aggregation OF
Chinese in America is in this city, but
miniature Chinatown exists in every town
or city where Chinese have congregated in
considerable numbers.
