Hon. WILLIAM MUTCHLER, of this con
eressional district, has presented a
brief bill to congress, which in effect
contemplates the transfer of the
Bureau of Pensions to the War Depart
ment. 1t provides that the Pension
Bureau shall be a Bureau in and Of the
War Department and shall be under
the supervision of the War Secretary
This is quite reasonable. 1t would
greatly simply matters and the bill
should become law.

THE NEXT CITRUS FAIR.

Cotton, San Bernardino County, Said to
Be Selected by the State Board.
For some days past there has beer
considerable talk about the Southern
District citrus fair, and popular rumol
fixes the place for holding it ct Cotton.
This is said to be the work of Il. M,
Holt, who publishes small newspaper
at that place and who has persuaded
the state board of agriculture at Sacrs.
booksellers and horse jockeys, at best)
the fair. In doing this, Mr.. Holt has
done nothing improper but thas merely
advocated the interests of his town, as
any other public-spirited citizen would
have done. The fault lies not with him
but with the state board for making
such an assignment without previously
sending some competent person to in
ouire into the facts of the case.
The proposition to put the state fair
on wheels and move it around the state
every year from one city to another was
voted down, in that Sacramento was the
virtual center OF the state and had the
best hotel accommodations for visitors
lTOIu ulStdIll lUCdlilicS. Liz SAIl6 aryu-
ments would apply to Los Angeles, as
the center of the southern citrus dis
trict, and has better accommodations in
the hotel line than any other city in the
state, if we except San Francisco. She
can live without this citrus fair. Give
it to Ventura, San Diego, Redlands,
Santa Ana or even Santa Barbara, but
don't send it to Cotton, which not only
has not the requisite hotel accommoda-
tions but is also located ct the extreme
outer edge OF the district. We concede
that Cotton is second to no other portion
of the state in the production of fruits,
either citrus or oeciduous. But for a
citrus fair there should be plenty OF
hotel room for strangers, which Cotton
has not got. II located at Santa Ana
for this occasion, the distance to this
place is so short that people could stay
at Los Angeles hotels and go backwards
and forwards daily. But at Cotton they
would suffer many inconvenience.

Various Changes In the School La,
Recommended.

Various Changes In the School Law
Recommended.
SAN Francisco, Dec. AT the sec
ond days session OF the County School
Superintendent convention, President
Jordan of Stanford university was
made an honorary member of the con-
vention.
A number of sections OF the school
law were recommended to be changed
Among the proposed changes are the
following: Each county superintend-
ent may appoint deputies to be paid by
the county supervisors. School census
returns shall be made to the state su-
perintendent on the 1st Of July instead
OF the lst of August. The school super
intendents of every county shall hold at
least one teachers institute in each
year.
The questions OF changes in teachers
certificates occasioned much discussion.
1t was finally decided that every appli-
cant for teachers certificate, or for a
renewal OF a certificate, upon presenting
his application shall pay to the county
superintendent a fee OF 81.
perintendent McClymond's attempt
TO provide for the establishment OF city
libraries in addition to those now used

THE S. P. AT RIVERSIDE.
What the Company Is Doing in That
Place.

What the Company Is Doing in That
The Riverside Reflex publishes the
following
The Southern Pacific company has
begun operations at Riverside. For
several days Col. I. j. Wilson and other
agents of the company have been at
work quietly among our citizens, look
ing after right of way interests, the
while engineers have been operating in
the field to the south and off toward
Chino.
Efforts have been made by private
property interests to influence the route
OF the railroad through the city, and OF
course the railroad people are seeking to
make the most OF the opportunity thus
afforded. The two routes most promi-
nently considered are, generally speak
ing, by way of RubidouX mountain base
and alongside the track of the Santa Fe.
So far as can be ascertained the rail-
road people prefer to align their COM
petitor. Indeed, the Southern Pacific
company seems determined TO get be-
tween the Santa Fe line and the busi-
ness part OF town, or else it is forced to
look for right of way west of its COM
petitor's track by reason OF its failure to
worm in behind the packing houses by
means OF the motor franchise scheme.
1t WAS apparent at the time the motor
franchise was at issue that the railroad
people had sail to wind'rd, and the de-
velopments OF the past few days go to
show that it reckoned we'll. At that
time cautious negotiations were opened
looking to the securing of options on
the Riverside hotel property and that
on the opposite side of Eighth street.
Since then the Riverside hotel property
has changed hands and also the prop
erty on the north side OF Seventh street,
opposite. At least one of these trans
fers is said, on good authority, to
have been made in the interest of
not unlikely that both were so made.
In support of this supposition, the fact
appears that the railroad people yester-
day secured an option On Clarence
Stewards property, on the south side of
Eighth street, on line with the other
property mentioned.
Thus it would seem that the railroad
people do not look with favor on the op-
portuuities afforded at the west end OF
town; or, rather, that they regard the
opening they may be able to make at
the east side of far greater value.
Whether because OF it's proximity to the
packing houses or on account of it's COM
petitive advantages in another way is a
matter of opinion.
At any and all events, the Southern
Pacific company is amongst US, and
seems to be making itself very much at
home.

SEATTLE, Dec. Mrs. Marie Storey
was shot and instantly killed last night
by her discarded lover, Charles Roger
Moulton, who then erded his own life.
About year ago Moulton began to pay
court to Mrs. Storey, and they were fire.
quently seen together. About three
months ago it was noticed that ne was
no longer seen with her and intimate
friends knew that he had fallen from
her good graces, and that he would not
take ''no" for an answer. Yesterday
afternoon Mrs. Storey went to the opera,
and upon her return found Moulton at
her rooms. He became 80 violent that
Mrs. Storey pacfed him by promising
to consider his suit more favorably on
the following day.
Last night after returning from the
theater she went direct to her room,
passing through the room where her
two little boys, aged, and 9: were sleep
ing in cots, and woke one in kissing
him. A momsnt after she had reached
her own room two pistol shots were
heard. Colonel Hilder, q roomer at the
house, rushed into Mrs. Storay's room,
to find her dead upon the floor, while
Moulton lay only a few feet away. also
dead.
About 20 minutes before Mrs. Storey
came home the servant girl heard some
one enter the house and go into Mrs.
Storey's room. She was too much
frightened to investigate, It was evil
IDENTIFY Moulton who entered the room
about this time and secreted himself in
closet, as Mrs. Storev's dresses indi-
Gated that he had been hiding there.
When Mrs. Storey entered the room,
she threw her opera wraps on the bed,
and walked across to the bureau which
stood opposite and within 10 feet OF the
closet. She WAS looking in the glass
when Moulton fired. The bullet tore
through her brain, and she fell to the
floor with a smile OIL her face. Moulton
then placed the pistol against his own
head and fired. falling so close TO his
victim that the two pools Of oocd
merged into one. Both were dead when
found and the walls and floor were COW
cred with blood.
Moulton had evidently prsmeditated
the deed, for at the morgue q note was
found on hs person directing that if
any ything occurred to him, certain friends
should have charge Of his personal
effects.

SAN Francisco, Dec. 1.-THE steamer
Mackinaw has been libeiled for $5S69,
suit having been filed in the United
States district court this morning. The
complainants are Meyer, WE'LL
& Co., the Winchester Repeat
ing Arms company and others.
The complainants charge that
on the Mackinaw's trip from New York
to San Francisco she was not handled
properly, and in consequence sea water
entered through the portfolios and did
considerable damage to the cargo.
The steamer is operated by the John
son Locke company, another Of
whose vessels, the Keewenaw, was
libeled for $13,2 by the Union Metallic
Cartridge company and others. The
complaint against her was the
same as against the Mackinaw.
She WAS released this morning on
bonds amounting to $26, ,4e6, having
been claimed by the Saginaw Steam
