EDS. RECoRD-CNIoN: With a shock of
surprise the people of this common
wealth learn of the stupendous folly that,
in moment of thoughtlessness, has been
committed by the men, who as legisla-
tors, have been honored and intrusted
with the conservation of the best interests
of our State. The news that a resolution
for the removal of the State Capital had
really passed both houses was received
with lncredullty, for no one was disposed
to believe that serious men would indulge
in such childish pranks. Because a fool
lsh and sensational paper sought to adj
Yertlse itself these solons are willing TO
wipe out by making useless, millions of
property that has been paid for by the
hard-earned taxes oftheir constituents. To
seek to hide behind a proposition that
San Jose should contribute land and
money to further such removal is quite
IN keeping with the entire business for
these gentlemen certainly, when they
come to their sober senses, must know
that capital and labor cannot be diverted
into the erection of new buildings with
out draining, to just that extent, the
channels of legitimate business on which
we depend for the upbuilding of Cali
tornla. Moreover, the small sum asked
for from San Jose is but an insignificant
beginning Of the amount that will be re-
qulred to duplicate the massive structure
that now stands in Sacramento. New
taxes will have to be levied, and the
drain kept up for years before another
building OF equal proportions can be
erected.
The only argument that can be urged
for the removal is the thoroughly vicious
one which rests on local envy. 1t is the
desire, which has been too often mani
fest, of some city or county wishing to
secure some State institution simply be-
cause some other section has one. The
best interests OF the State and the highest
efficiency of its departments cut no figure
in such an unworthy scramble. Those
who promote such schemes are, in gem
eral, wholly careless or entirely thought
less of the interests of our community as
a whole, provided only that their own
small locality is benefited. This is the
petty spirit which hampers the growth of
our noble State, because it is too small to
survey the whole.
Should this Legislature adjourn and go
nome to their constituents without recti-
flying their blunder, then the great Capt.
tol building at Sacramento will stand
through centuries as a monument to their
folly. Let tablets of brass be placed in
the rotunda, inscribed, first with the
names of the two who introduced the
resolution into each of the houses, and
then with those of the legislators who re-
fused to reconsider, so that succeeding
generations ofchildren can read and learn
on how imperfect a foundation rests the
structure of our vaunted popular Gov
ernment. GEORGE EDWARDS.

took place at Armory Hall last night in

The Board of Trade Votes to Not Do
Business With the ''Bee.''
There was an executive meeting of the
members of the City Board of Trade last
evening, called for the purpose of taking
action concerning the course of the Bee in
its attacks upon members of the Legis-
lature. After a long and animated dis
cussion of the matter the following reso-
luton was adopted:
WHEREAS, We fully recognize the right
of journalists to conduct newspapers as in
their judgment may be for the best inter-
ests OF those owning the enterprise; and
whereas, the public, by its support of a
journal, at least submits to, and by
patronage tends to encourage the issue of
a newspaper; and whereas, we, as the
Board of Trade OF the city of Sacramento,
do hereby earnestly protest against the
slanderous articles published by the
Daily Bee against the Legislature of the
State of California; and whereas, we be-
heve the members of that body are fully
up to the standard of past Legislatures,
and should be treated with respect; and
whereas, we protest against the policy of
the Daily Bee, pursued now for many
years; and whereas, we fully realize that
it is high time for us toiprotect ourselves,
our property, and the fair fame of our
city; therefore, be it
ResolUed, That we do hereby withdraw
all our patronage from the Daily Bee.

COLLISION ON THE RAW
inc Steamer San Joaquin Runs u
Against a Schooner

o SleaIief san joaquin Runs up
Against Schooner.
The Sacramento Transportation Com
pany, owners of the steamer San JOAQUIN
No. 4, will have quite bill of damages to
pay for repairs to the steam-schooner
Jennie and also for repairing damages to
their own craft.
Yesterday morning the steamer. loaded
with freight, attempted to dock at the
0uikhead at Folsom 2, San Francisco.
Wneh The San joaquin attempted the
ulLIculI task OF making the birth, every
thlng possible was against her doing so
successfully. The Captain of the steamer
py good luck cleared the entrance, and
was proceeding to his berth. He gave
the order TO slow down. but according to
accounts he was not understood and the
engineer Kept the vessel going at a rea-
sonabIe rate of speed. A collision was
unavoidable. The ship i. f. Oakes was
the first vessel to feel the effect of the
steamers blow, but it was a glancing
one, and the steam-schOoner Jennie was
Ihe next craft to stop the San Joaquin.
The Jennie did so, also, but she was
badly smashed. A very large hole was
punched in her side and it was found
necessary to can't the vessel with ropes
10 prevent the water rushing in.
he san joaquin was backed toward
the opening by this time, otherwise she
would have cut the Jennie in two.
w hen the steamer collided with the
snip Oakes, one Of the yard-arms caught
the pilot-house on the steamer, and made
d complete wreck of one side of it.
Carelessness is by no means the cause
OF inc accident, as on entering the slip
under adverse circumstances every pre-
caution was taken.
The entire damage will not amount to
more than $1,000.
captain Hansen of the schooner Jennie
was on board his vessel at the time. and
while the accident will delay him he was
not inclined to find fault with the Captain
OF The san Joaquin, as the conditions un-
der which he attempted to dock were
most discouraging.
Inc damage to all of the vessels can be
repaired for a sum not TO exceed S. COO.

That Pension Bill Again.

EDS. RECoRD-UNIoN: Through the
medium of your columns permit me to
cast chip from the opposite shore into
the teachers pension maelstrom. Sixty
days ago, when the bill again bobbed up
serenely from beneath the waves of OBJ
uvion, where a former Legislature had
wisely submerged it, we smiled laconi-
cally at its resurrection, comforting our
selves that "a measure so prepOSterous
would find no harborage in the intelli-
gent minds of California's lawmakers.
Further acquaintance with session in
which many meritorious measures have
received only scanty recongnition, while
many more less deserving ones have rid
den on the high tide of success-com-
bined with the facts that ''ye Senator's
have reported favorably and that large
delegation of San Francisco's lady teach
ers spent Saturday in the Capitol, paying
assiduous attention TO I'VE gallant Assem-
blymeni'-have conspired to change our
smiles to protests.
There is a significance in the fact that
San Francisco teachers stand almost alone
in their championship of this bill. No
lobbyists have come from San Jose, Oak
land, Stockton, Los Angeles or any OF the
larger interior schools. IA cCHtrdfTe,
the wisest educators, the press almost to
a unit and the majority of teachers in the
State are united against its passage.
The yearly salary of a San Francisco
teacher compares favorably with the
seven, eight or nine months stipend
which is the average length of a country
teachers employment The city teacher,
with her graded flock of fifty, works no
harder than she who plods over a mile of
country roads to be everything and all,
