NOT only poets, but statesmen, discern
tho gigantic shadows which futurity casts
upon the present" Once, at a social meet
Ing at james Freeman Clarke's church,
Charles Summer addressed the young peo-
pie in az informal talk.
He said not a word of what he had done,
nor did he speak of the past, but he dis
coursed of the magnificent future which
was befd re the rising generation and the
noble du ties which they had to fulfill.
AS he spoke Of the great opportunities
awaiting the young, he said he wished he
had been born later, so as to be able to take
part in the events which soon would come.
MI. sumner" said a lady later in the
evening, Il think the Lord knew better
than you when you ought to be born.n
The lady was right-bright women al,
ways say the pat word. But the great sen
ator's wish was but the expression of his
desire to participate in the great events
whose 81 irits he saw striding on before the
events. He recognized, for he had the
prophets sight, that 'in today already

ers and professional politicians who are

| expended or elections.
Mr.. Peppers amendments relate ex-
/ cluslVely to some proposed changes in
the Australian ballot system, being an
attempt to remedy certain defects appar-
ent in the operation OF this law at the last
election. The amendments have in
| brief the object OF improving the election
machinery OF the Stale
One relates to the abolishment Of the
| expense in advertising tickets and max kes
a provision for the detection of Illegal
I registration.
There is provision for more compart-
ments in the election booths, giving all
4 the people in precinct an opportunity of
voting, and clause touching the danger
/ of allowing Election Boards to hold re-
turns eighteen hours, and proposing TO
reduce this time 10 three hours.
The third amendment would allow all
political parties representation on the
| Election Boards, instead Of confining
\ such representation to two parties, as at
present.
Then comes a proposal to permit the
| Superior Court to open election returns
in the exposure of fraud, after the time
4 specified in which notices OF contests may
be filed for recount.
Peppers amendments were favor
ably received by the members OF the
| committee. No action was taken, owing
TO the great length of Mr.. Shanahan's bill,

PURITY OF ELECTIONS.
SHANAHAN'S BILL UNDER con-
SIDERATION.
Sweeping Change in Election
Methods Now in
Vogue.

The House Committee on Apportion-
ment and Election Laws met Yesterday
afternoon with all members present.
Max Pepper of San Francisco was
present, and by request of the Chairman.
Mr.. Finlayson, explained certain amend
ments which are proposed for Assembly
Bill No. s, introduced by Shanahau.
This measure is entitled "An Act to
Promote the Purity Of Elections" and if
made law will inaugurate a sweeping
change in the methods now in vogue. It
strikes a heavy blow at the use of money
in elections, other than legitimate ex-
penses necessarily incurred in advertis-
ing and travelling. Some idea of it's scope
may be obtained by brief extracts given
herewith.
Section says: "No sum of money shall
be paid and no expense shall be incurred
by or on behalf of candidate at an cleo
ton held within this State at which he *
a candidate, or by or on behalf of a com
mttee selected under the provisions Of
Section / of this Act, or by or on behalf
OF the body or superior authority 10
which such committee is subject, whether
before, during or after election, on ac-
count of or in respect of the conduct or
management OF such election, except for
the expenses Of holding and conducting
public meetings for the discussion Of
public questions, and of printing and cir
culating specimen ballots, handbiIlS
cards and other papers previous to sucn
election, and of advertising and OF post
age, expressage, telegraphing and tele-
phoning and OF supervising the registra-
ton Of voters and watching the polling
or counting OF votes cast at such election
and of salaries of persons employed in
transacting business at office or head
quarters, and necessary expenses of
maintaining same, and for rent of rooms
necessary for the transaction Of the busi-
ness of the candidate or committee, or
superior authority to which such COM
cidental expenses, which shall not ex-
ceed the sum of Sl00 If expended by a
candidate or 1000 if expended by a COM
mittee."
Section provides as follows: ''No pay
ment Of money shall be made and no ex-
pense shall be incurred by any person in
aid OF or for or on behalf OF any candidate
or on account Of or in respect OF the con-
duct or management of an election held
within this State, except by a candidate
or the committee selected under the pro-
visions OF Section l of this Act or
the committee, body or superior author
ity to which such committee is subject:
aud all expenses incurred by the com
mittee, body or superior authority to

Quired by this Act. Amy contract for the

CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS.
THE ASSESS sMENT OF YOUNG FRUIT
AND NUT TREES.
Bretz's Little Joke-Alien Ownership
Proposition Referred Back With
ont Recommendation.

The Assembly Committee on Constitu-
tional Amendments met last night.
Assembly Constitutional Amendment,
No. s, was first considered. Mr. Simp-
son. author of the amendment, was pres
ent and explained its merits. 1t is in re-
lation to revenue and taxation. Mr..
Simpson claimed that property should be
assessed at its full value and not proper
tionately as now. The amendment seeks
to repeal the mortgage tax. the amend
ment provides also that orchards OF fruit
and nut t-bearing trees and vineyards shall
be exempt from taxation until they are
four years old.
Mr.. Afford, who has introduced an
amendment exempting non-bearing fruit
trees and vineyards from taxation, inso-
much similar to that Of Mr.. Simpson,
said he was opposed to the repeal Of the
mortgage tax law, The mortgage law as
itstands is a benefit to the poor man; if it
is repealed it will work hardship on
him and be of benefit to the rich man.
AS it is now both the mortgage and
mortgagor are taxed.
Mr.. Bretz thought that the discussion
was all unnecessary, as four years from
now the Populists would be in power
and money could be borrowed from the
United States at 2 per cent.
Mr.. Afford said he was willing to in
corporate in his amendment nom bearing
fruit trees.
Opinions We're read from reports Of the
Supreme Court by Mr.. Simpson touching
on the mortgage tax business, strength
ening the position he had taken.
Mr.. Simpson discussed his amendment
at length. Another prominent feature OF
