For once we are enabled to concur
with the expression of the San Fran
cisco Chronicle. 1t is right in saying that
in this matter of electric street railway
grants the whole question of what cities
want in that line can be best left to them.
That is sound doctrine, because it is in
line with the wise principle that the
government is best which comes closest
to the people. Just SO far as is possible
within the constitutional limits, NUM-
eipaiities should be permitted to NOM
mate their forms of government aid
pass upon their domestic concerns free
from legislative dictation. We agree
with the Chronicle that
CITY Councils and Boards of Supervisors
and the like may be trusted to arrange details
of construction and operation. They know
what the cities and towns reed better than O
Legislature can know, and the matter should

ELECTRICAL RAILWAYS.

Assemblyman Dibble is reported to
have said on the floor of the House that
he was convinced, or believes, or thinks,
that it will not be long before cars on
street railways viii be propelled by cleo
tricity without the use of suspended
wires. Well, they have been propelled
without the use of wires, but nowhere
and in no instance without heavy loss.
That is to say, the underground system
is failure, the storage battery system is
a failure. The day may come, since this
is the age of marvels, when the belief of
Mr.. Dibble will be realized. But in the
meantime if that gentleman has substan-
tial information upon which to base his
belief, he can coin it into million of dol
lars in a few days by communicating the
knowledge to, say Mr.. Edison. That is
to say, if he has knowledge of means to
as economically prope1 ears by electricity
by underground wires as by overhead
wires, he can name his desire for fortune
and have it.
We have no doubt whatever Of the sim
cerity of the Assemblyman, OF of his i'm
plicit faith in the possibilities of science,
but it is the unanimous verdict of all
electrical students, of all scientists, that
we have not knowledge OF electrical force
sufficient to accomplish the desire re-
ferred to, nor are we likely to have it for
very many year. In fact, the known
bility OF such attainment. General Hazen
responded to the $40, 900 offer of Mum d
Co. concerning the greatest need of the
age-"It is an economic storage battery.
No, it cannot be constructed" That is,
it is, SO far as human knowledge now
goes, not possible to store electrical
tive force will produce results costing
less than the cost of storage, where any
considerable body is to be moved by the
motor. Hundreds of thousands of dol
lars have been expended in this State al
ready in the effort to operate electrical
roads economically by buried wires, or
what is known as third rail, but success
has not met the outlay, nor do electri-
clans believe that it can be attained in
this generation, if at all. The question
is, then, shall we, in the hope of some
great discovery in the far future, prevent
the people from using that they have?

Mr.. CARPENTERS bills would give the
Acknowledgement three deputies at g, 400
year each, clerk at 81 900 a year, and a
stenographer at 81 500. But it is provided
that no special counsel shall be employed
by the Attorney General. 1t is worth
while to examine into this proposition
and ascertain if it viii save the State any
thing. What sort of counsel to take the
place of specials" can be had for 81, 400
year? Is it not true that special counsel
is engaged only in cases of grave i'm
portance, and where the best of assist
ance is demanded?'

THE misses who have passed the short
dress period but have not yet attained
their majority, have been read sharp
lesson by the Superior Court of this
county. Judge Catlin in a recent habeas
corpus case before him, held that these
young women have not the right which
most of them assume, to select associates,
to have beaus, to court and to plan for
marriage. They are minors and subject
to their guardians, and since they are in
capable of contracting marriage lawfully
they are incapable of contracting to
marry before the event of attaining their
majority. The Court sharply told the at
torney who commended that minor misses
have the right TO choose ''beaus,n and to
engage in courtship, that he was mis-
taken, and was a false guide; that these
young girls are wisely refused by law
and common sense the privileges they so
generally assume.
In this day when young America in
knickerbockers apes manhood, and pre-
cocious girls in pantalettes claim the
right to have lovers, such rebukes from
the bench are timely. We may, however,
expect youth to revolt and to appeal to
the sentimental idea about liberty of
the person and unfettered personal free
dom, to sustain them. In that case
guardians and parents should apply the
single, and bring about conviction that
there is still such state as that of juven-
ility.

Mr.. ATKINSON, the well known politi-
cal economist, put the silver question

40, sometimes so, sometimes 90 cents only,

adoption of such q policy he thinks the

IT would be very nice thing, perhaps
an appropriate thing, to erect monu-
ment to the memory of General Vallejo
but not for the State to foot the bill, as
Senate bill 100, by Mr.. Ragsdale, proposes.
While statuary monuments are refining
in influence when set in public parks
and buildings, while such art works tend
to better the people by elevating and cul-
tivating their tastes, California is now
pledged to an economic policy that rem
ders indulgence in them at this time out
OF the question. The Pioneers might
well erect the Vallejo monument. Or, if
they ungenerously recall that the late
General was not strictly of them, but at
one time in arms against the earlier of
them, then let wealthy friends or San
Francisco adorn Golden Gate Park with
the statue of that departed gentleman,
who was a distinguished citizen of the
State, and who accepted conditions and
became valuable, loyal and useful MEM
Der Of the republic. 1t would be very
different matter if it were proposition
for the State to acquire historic grounds,
to preserve the precious relics of the early
days Of the territory, to save from the
wrath of the elements buildings rich in
historic "reminiscences, and which the
people have contributed from their pri-
vate purses to secure and present to the
State. Such work the State may well aid,
since time and the push of settlement
renders it necessary to be done now, if at
all. But to erect statues and monuments
just now is a proceeding that will keep.

The shipping bill now before the
House passed the United States Senate
over six months ago. The people have
had ample time to study it and they have
done so, and no protests of any import
ance have been entered, while scores of
urgent petitions of representative char
acter have been sent up in its favor. By
the bill steam vessels not exceeding
eleven knots speed are put upon the same
footing as sailing vessels, with the same
encouragement for building and sailing
them. Both classes, for every gross regis
ter ton, are allowed ten cents for the first
and second 500 miles or fraction thereof
sailed either way between foreign and
American ports, and twenty cents for
each 1000 miles thereafter and pro rata
for any distance less than 1000 miles after
the first LOCO. This twenty-cent rate is to
continue for ten years; then for nine
years two cents a ton less is to be paid for
each year. The idea of the measure is to
promote gradually ascending series of
vessels beginning with those making
eleven knots an hour. All steamers
availing of the benefits offered must be
constructed to be convertible into
cruisers or transports for naval service,
and their plans must have the approval
Of the Navy Department. The steamers
must also be held ready at any time TO
carry United States mails, and for all
such mail matter carried the Postal De-
partment must turn into the treasury the
sea and inland postage thereon. All
steamers found to fulfill the requirements
stated are to be enrolled as auxiliary
ships, and may be taken by the United
States in time of need at valuation as
certained by appraisement by two impair
tial appraisers, and a third if the two fail
to agree. The belief is that if political
contention over other matters does not
stop the way, the bill viii pass the present
House and become law.

OREGON has adopted the reform ballot
law. California should be the next in
the list of progressive States; she should
have been first on this coast. But let it
be kept in mind by the committee and
the advocates that no bill will be accept
able, or will create a law that will be sue
cessful, that provides for printing on the
ballots the candidates names in single
the politics of the nominees is set forth.
That system will bring the law into dis
repute. The one and only acceptable
system is that which provides for all the
party nominations to be placed in party
columns, with party head to each, with
vignette if you please, so that the most
stupid of voters can see that all party
nominees are placed together, and that he
may vote straight ticket if he chooses,
by making the necessary mark opposite
the party head. So, too, the requirement
that clerks of election shall indorse their
names or initials on either ballots or
stubs is useless, conserves no good pur-
pose, and is precisely what the enemies
of ballot reform wish to have in the law.
For it viii give the bosses an avenue
through which they can ascertain how an
elector voted. Any ordinary clerk can
indorse his initials on two hundred bal
lots and yet make no two alike, and still
they will all be recognized as his sigma
ture initials. He can, if he has any mem
Org at all, thereafter identify every one of
these Endorsements with the individual
voters. What that means any politician
with wit understands.

The Pope and the Italians.

ROME, Nov. 3.-The sudden summons
of the chief of the Jesuits to Rome is
generally regarded as an indication that
the pope is prepared to extend to that
order something of its former preponder-
ance in church affairs. AS France draws
nearer to Italy, the pope DIVORCES from
France. The pope has refused to ap-
prove the prosecution of the archbishop
of AK, an6 France has, in some degree,
retaliated by making friendly oyertures
to Italy. The exceptional duties on
Italian produce are to be rescinded, and
the discussions as to the delimitation of
the fir rontier in Africa are to be resumed.
In the face of all this, the pope calls
upon the Jesuit element for advice.
which, in the view of well-kuown
churchmen, means reactionary policy.

going to Kansas City, and right here is
where the smile comes in. Mr.. Norris
had intended going by the Union Pacific
and two tickets from Pendleton to Kan
sas City would have cost him $115, but
he learned just in time that he could
save $6.10 by buying tickets to The
Dalles and going to Portland by the
river and not being in any great hurry
to get to his destination he adopted the
cheapest route, and when he gets to
Portland he will buy ticket to Kansas
City by the way of the Southern Pacific.
Thus the scheme of the Union Pacific to
drive the peoples boats off the river has
a sort of back action to it and it kicks the
company hardest. The fifty cent rate
costs the company, in this one instance,
exactly $102. 40 for had it not been in
existence Mr.. and Mrs. Norris would
have paid out to the Union Pacific the
sum of $115, whereas they only paid it
$12.40. Brethren, let the good work go
on.
