THE Federation of Beneficence this
morning issues its address to the people
OF this city. 1t asks them to take the
tickets to be offered to them to-day, to
give these tickets to those begging for
food or shelter, instead Of giving them
money or lodging or meals. This will
insure those willing to work decent en-
ployment, good meals and lodging each
day. and will settle the tramp problem
for Sacramento. 1t will distinguish the
deserving unemployed from vagrants
and loafers, and will promote a wise
charity that has been tried elsewhere.
lndiscriminate aid by householders to
those begging for food is. in the face of
the offer of the Federation, simply an in
yitation for the unemployed poor to come
to US and be supported without labor
compensation. Every family keeping a
house in the city ought to take supply
of these tickets. They will amount to
insurance against imposition.

AS train No. 4, the west-bound over
land, was coming down the hill a mile
west of New England Mills yesterday
morning. the forward engine was derailed
and fell over on its side.
The second engine did not leave the
track, but the four cars following it were
partially derailed. The cause of the acci-
dent is not known, but will probably be
known when the engine is raised \

at 1880 and proceed on their way to Reno,
arriving about p. NJ. The weather is

AN OUTRAGEOUS ASSAULT-THE
PHILBROOK CASE AND THE
SUPREME COURT.

Probably not in the history of the
American judicial system has there been
made such causeless, unprovoked and
nnmanly assault upon the courts Of the
people by a lawyer as that recently wit
messed in San Francisco.
A member of the bar has appeared be-
fore the Supreme Court of the State and
fled brief in which he assumes this
threatening attitude toward the court,
and expresses its meaning in unmistak-
able language: 81, as an officer of this
court, say for my clients to this court
that if you dare to decide against my
clients position In this case it will be be-
cause you have been bribed to do so.'"
He then goes on in this remarkable docu-
ment to tortify the threat by an argument
to show that the deduction of bribery and
corruption will be inevitable if the de-
cision is against him.
The court has cited Attorney Philbrook
to appear before it on the 18th inst. and
show cause why he should not be de-
barred from practice in all courts in the
State. Disbarment will be mild punish
ment for so grievous an offense. Under
the circumstances it is difficult to see how
the court can do otherwise than strip the
robes of counselor" from the unworthy
shoulders of its officer. 1t ought beside
to jug him in the common Jail and let
him learn wisdom while he cools his
heels in prison.

hour Of even our partial democracy has

But we have faith in the courts. Fall
liable though they be, as are their
creators, they stand for the highest, best,
noblest and safest bulwarks of freedom
in action. speech and print, and in secur-
ity of life and property, and the right to
seek happiness. They guarantee US in the
exercise of our constitutional sovereignty;
they represent prudence, justice, fortitude
and order; they stand exponents of the
stitute the nation they actualize every
virtue the State and the nation have as
political bodies; they are the shield and
safeguard against the assault of the
vicious, and of trespassers upon human
right; against the encroachments of AFRO
gance and of bloated pretension upon the
rights of the law-abiding, the weak and
the timid. If the courts are not to be re-
spected, if this viciously contemptuous
performance of an arrogant and brow
beating San Francisco lawyer stirs in the
breasts of our people no indignation. we
have reached deplorable stage. But we
are as confident that every decent citizen
feels this attack by threat upon the Su-
preme Court to be personal assault an
offense against his own tribunal and
therefore against himself, as we are con-
vinced that the court has the courage to,
and will punish Philbrook as he de-
serves, and thus vindicate the high war
rant of Office issued 10 it by the people.
The record-union., 1894-12-13

So monstrous is the Philbrook con-
tempt case, so furious and vicious an as
sault upon the liberties Of the people is it,
that a brief statement of facts before
further considering the case is essential
1t will be sufficient to say that mer-
camille firm some years ago suffered the
loss of one of its members by death. The
administrator Of the estate, under the au-
thority reposed in him and with the sub
sequent sanction of courts before which
the case came, sold to the surviving part
ners the interest of the deceased in the
firm. The contract Of sale or settlement
was drawn by the administrators attor-
ney, who is now member of the Su-
preme bench, but was then member of
a law firm in San Francisco.
This sale being contested in one way
and another by certain parties in inter-
est, the Superior Court held that the good
will of the firm was not valuable thing
for which the surviving members of the
mercantile firm ought to pay. For this
Philbrook bitterly assails the Superior
Court in this same offensive brief. The
case coming into the Supreme Court, the
attorney files brief in opposition to the
position of those opposing him and con-
tending for the integrity of the sale. Re-
plying to an expression in the brief of the
other side that the contract of settlement
is Sin the handwriting of Judge Harri-
son." Philbrook opens the vials of his
wrath upon the Supreme bench, and in
so many words threatens ''if you decide
Harrison is one of your colleagues,
though that Justice does not sit in the
case. This, Philbrook declares will be
evidence of corruption and bribery of the
baldest kind. He uses this charge as a
threat to the court, warning it that it
dare not decide against him.
Under such circumstances the Court is
placed in this position, if it holds with
Philbrook, of being laid open to the ex-
ultation that he forced the court so to ad-
Judge; if it holds against him, it will be
subject to his libel that it is corrupted by
the membership of Justice Harrison. For
tunately for the court, though there have
been so many attempts in San Francisco
to stimulate lawlessness and disrespect
for the laws and the peoples tribunals, it
can rise above all these considerations
and pass upon the issues in the case in
different to them, and as the law and
common justice demand.
The passages in the argument of Attor-
torney Philbrook, for which the Supreme
Court has cited him for contempt, are as
follows:

HARPER'S
Pictorial History
OF THE
Civil w ar.

- ~ -I W. o@-Ae
This great book has sold for years
at SI6 to $50 in two big volumes.
The pages are I63XII3 inches.
There are $50 pages. Lots of maps
and sketches, and one big colored
map 23x33 inches.
People wanted them, but couldn't
afford SIG and kept asking for the
old "Harper's Weekly during the
War" After the pictures had been
put into this big, new, complete his
tory, the old Weekly plates were de-
stroyed and now those files are scarce.
But the big history was so inter-
esting, and, being compiled from all
the official records, was so COM
plete and valuable that thousands
bought it.
Now it is all cut up and everybody
is getting it and being surprised.
1t is made into 26 big parts, 81
big pages in each, and printed on
nice supercalendered paper-better
than ever before has a hand
some buff cover with emblematic de-
sign on each part.
The parts have sold as high as $r
each, but can be got for only cents
each if you know how. The
pictures alone are worth more than
that, but the story and copies OF
many official documents and state
papers OF priceless historic value, all
go in with the pictures.

fore the Supreme Court Of this State
strikes at the root of all our liberties,
since there is no freedom with us except
under law. The true government de-
rives its powers from the consent of the
governed. We have established such
government. 1t is divided in it's activity
and ministrations 10 happiness, and
assurance of peace and security, into
three coordinate branches-the legis-
lative, the judicial, and executive. The
Office of the one is to declare the will OF the
people; of the other, to interpret the laws
and hold the representative body within
the lines Of conferred power, and of the
third, to see that the mandate of the laws
are faithfully observed.
Now there attaches to the judicial arm
through tradition, of necessity and by
virtue of its functions, certain powers
and rights; namely, to maintain its dig
nifty, because it is the final tribunal of
the people, and to discipline those licensed
to plead at its bar. There is interviewer
into the very texture Of the judicial sys-
tenn the assurance that the courts shall
be free from assault, threat or cow: that
they shall be treated with respect not
corruptly approached, or be subject to
duress or compulsion-these things, not
because of the men who have been in
vested with the judicial Office, but be-
cause the Office is the creation of the
people. and because. being the highest
function people through their appointed
agencies can assume, it must be free, un-
trammeled, met with respect, treated
with decency, and its DEGREES bowed to
until reversed.
Doubtless courts, being human institu-
tions are not perfect, but they are, as a
rule, the highest development of the po-
litical civilization of a people, and there
fore the people are the very last who can
suffer them to be treated with contumely.
The ethics of the bar demand that its
members shall, as officers of the court,
maintain it's dignity and set the example
of respect for it which is demanded of all.
The lawyer, therefore, who makes such
assault by innuendo, such threat direct,
such contemptuous address as this Attor-
ney Philbrook INDUCES in, abuses his
privilege, soils the robes of his profession,
offends the people whose tribunal he in
suits. and, by these contributions to the
| lawless spirit, strikes a blow at order,
| law and liberty, and should be disbarred
with promptness and severity.

The laws express the average knowl-

the tribunals established to interpret the
laws and adjudge between men, stands
for the full measure of our loyalty to free
institutions. If, therefore, the spirit of un-
restraint, lawlessness and fret against the
regulations of order and security, have
so grown that this offense of Philbrook's
can be passed unpunished we have
neared the latter days of republican in
stitutions.
