A NEW DEAL.

Down in Santa Barbara represen tatives Of
the railroads are In session, patching up an
agreement on a modified basis for overland
freight transportation. The companies have
not all responded to the call for consulta-
tion. From the fact that three il not four
OF the northern companies have declined to
assemble and reason together we may con-
clude that divergent interests have cropped
mp which interfere with harmony. Lack of
agreement is not TO be lamented by the pub
lie, for when competition ceases among rail-
roads the benefit never nclines to the side
Of the community. Thus far the business
men of the Pacific Coast can form no con-
ception Of what will result from the forma-
ton of new association to regulate the
rates If freight. It's object seems to be to
combine and cut rates at the beginning, in
order to drive off ocean competition; that
objec. attained, rates would be likely to 20

measure of elasticity is to be allowed, prob
ably as much as may be practicable that
carries out the main object Of killing CON-
petition. The times are out of joint with
infleXible rates. there being signs that traders
may defy certain rsilroands and resort TO
ocean service for large percentage of the
commodities they require. The Great North

Pacific apparently are not included in the

WITHOUT YOUR LEAVE, SIR.
Four Men Turn Man and Wife Out

-Four men were arrested yesterday morn

with disturbing the peace. Their names are

house of 6. Queirolo. oil Green street, and
elected Mrs. QueirolO into the street with
out even saying 'by your leave"
When QueirOlo returned from his rounds
delivering bread he found the four men in
possession OF the house, and, on asserting
his rights, one of them placed pistol at his
head and forced him out OF the house.
Information was given to the police, and
the four men in possession were brought
before Captain Douglass at the City Prison.
T0rrett stated that he employed the other
three men on the advice of his attorney TO
make the ejectment.
Had you any authority from the court ?"
asked Captain Douglass.

bail be ?"

HOW WE ARE TAXED.

The Stockton Mail suggests that State
Legislatures should in some way be limited
in their expenditures of tile peoples money.
II calls attention to the fact that counties
and cities are limited as TO the amount thew
may eXDend without the assent of the tax
payers, willie the Legislature has unre-
stricted power over the tax levy. The MaI
says:
The difference is very broad. In the case of
the Stale appropriations are made first and then
a tax Is laid which will raise money enough TO
meet them. In The case Of counties and cities
on the other hand, lax Is levied first and no
Indebtedness can be lawfully incurred beyond
the sum which such tax Will pay without the
concurrence Of tw0-thrds OF The voters.
II appropriations were made by the Legislature
with the same discriminating prudence that Is
observed by the Board OF Supervisors of a
county three million and a half dollars would be
amIly sufficient to run the State government A
year.
The NdjPS estimate Is liberal States
with twice the population of California are
kept within S3,50OOOO year. The only
limitation placed upon State expenditures
is that voluntarily imposed by party con-
ventiOns. But IN The present Legislature.
which is the best we have elected for some
years. the appropriations in the way TO pass
have exceeded the amount that will be
raised under the 50-cent limit Either the
conference committees of the two houses or
the Governor has to cut appropriations
down. The 50-cent levy will afford a revenue
IN round mum bers OF 81, 500, 900. The county
tax in this county is more than twice as
much as the State tax. In other counties
the difference is not so great. but in nearly
all the county and town tax exceeds the
State TAX "A the State a Mt
limit would exceed SO head, and as the
county and town tax considerabl bly, exceeds

A STEP BACKWARD.

President Cleveland has requested the
Senate to return to the execuIiye the treaty
annexing the Hawaiian Islands. which the
executive recently transmitted 10 the Senate.
In other words tina treaty Harrison sent to
the Senate has been demanded of the Senate
by Cleveland. This is entirely within the
line of constitutional action. If President
Cleveland either disapproves of the anuexa-
fion of the islands or Of the method which
President Harrison adopted to bring that
result about, it becomes his duty to undo al
far as possible what has been done. At the
same time the news will be received with
general regret Cleveland's weak point in
public estimation is his tendency to what
may be termed an Un-AmeTican policy.
His fTee-trade notions are popular abroad.
There are millions Of people in Europe who
would like 10 do the work Americans are
now doing for themselves. These millions
and their rulers regard Mr.. Cleveland's
RvOwed policy with feelings Of the Warmest
admiration. A calm, deliberate and some
what critical examination Of the Hawaiian
proposition has settled the public
mind in its favor. Most of those who
aid rot see the necessity at first see 1t now.
The action Of the Massachusetts, Legisla-
lure is a case in point. Resolutions which
approved annexation were at first defeated,
but afterward adopted. Mr.. Cleveland has
great confidence in his own judgment. It
could hardly be expected Of man Of his
mental characteristics to accept so i'm
portant work at the hands OF another. Il
may be therefore that be viii devise an
other form Of annexation, one y hich will be
submitted 10 the TWO houses Of Congress.
Such course would justify lis recall of the
treaty. It may be on the other hand that he
Is opposed to annexation per Sc. He can
win some commentator from London
journals if he viii declare against annexa-
ton. Should that course be followed the
English Government would doubtless con-
sent to establish a protectorate over the
Islands rather than see anarchy prevail.

Mr.. dLADsToNE's PROSPECTS.

The Conservative party of England has
decided TO oppose Mr.. G.adstone's home
rule bill for Ireland with the simple issue
that 1t be read a second time six months
hence. THIS is the common form of motion
10 rel, ct any measure. No step less EN- bar
RAISING could be desired by the Govern
ment 1t draws the line sharply between
an effort to DO something 10 Tectify affairs
in Ireland aud the policy OF dong nothing.
The one course means progress toward
condition of contentment and reconcllia-
ton. The other means the continuance Of
strife and discord indefinitely. That this is
fatuous policy on the part Of the Conserv-
atives time will show. A number Of recent
bye-eleetions have indicated that public
opinion is favOraby inclined TO the Govern
ment proposals. Mr.. Gladstone has actually
four or five more votes than when he faced
Parliament with majority of forty. The
Parneliites and ant-Parnellites are now
united in the sense of supporting the bill.
Upon all matters Of principle, therefore,
the Premier can count on the Irish Nation
alist vote without dissenslou. In another
respect the attitude of the Conservatives is
cheerful to the Ministry. Their allies, the
Lberal-UniOnists, or at least a number OF
them, are partially committed to a broader
form OF government for Ireland. Mr.. Cham
berain is so far committed that he does not
oppose home rule in itself, but only in the
form prOpOunded in this particular meas
ure. Had lie the mandate from the country,
and not Mr.. Gladstone, he would have no
objection on principle to formulate a scheme
of bis own. SO far has he committed him
self in this direction that the Conservatives
both fear and dstrust him. Schism may
while Mr.. Chamberlain has some following,
others are bitterly hostile to any form Of
change in the government of Ireland. But

invgorating athletic exercise, healthful to
both mind and body, must hope that no
punctilie will be allowed to stand in the way
of fair encounter Of skill and endurance,
whether on American or English waters. 1t
is said the match depends on whether Ok
ford and Cambridge will come to America.
Perhaps there are difficulties. but they can
surely be overcome. 1t would be happy
compromise as to these inter-unversty
matches to come to an agreement that the
place of meeting should alternately be the
United States and England, quite ire
spective of which side wins. This would
neutraize any supposed gain from rowing
on familiar waters.

SHALL PRIZE-WINNERS BE PEN
STONED?

Director Clinton is reported as saying
that be had been offered SEQ to secure an
appOintm ent as teacher in the School De-
partment. Should the teachers pension
bill pass the Assembly the price of posi-
tons will materially advance. The pension
proposition is based upon the principle that
winners of prizes should be pensi0ned. a
teachers life position is a prize. a teacher
earns at least third more than she would
be able to earn in any other capacity. There
is no complaint over present salaries. but
good many people are unable to see why
persons so literally compensated should be
pensioned.
