Relief of Prof. J, c. Pelton.

The Board of Education of this CITY
has Endorsed and urged the claim of
Prof. j. c. Pelton before the Legislature
for the pitiful sum of some s., 600 Its &C.
ton was, as we understand it, unsolicited
and the result of conviction on the part
of the mem bers of the board that Califor-
mia owes this old man in his decline an
honest debt and ought to pay it.
In that view the money, il ordered, will
not be in any sense gratuity, nor char
lty, for Mr.. Pelton expended more than
the sum named and mortgaged his home
to get it, that the initial school system of
the State should not be suspended or de-
layed in its beneficence.
Pelton was the pioneer schoolmaster of
California. On the discovery of gold in
California he was young New England
teacher, and so enthusiastic friend of
education that out of his own limited
funds he got together school supplies and
came on to San Francisco, and at his own
cost opened and maintained the first
school in the State. He did this out of
the conviction that our policy now en-
bodies, that the surest foundations of a
State are laid in the intelligence of the
people, and that the youth of new coun-
try must not be allowed to grow up in
ignorance.
According to Pelton State building began
In the schoolhouse, and while nearly all
the rest OF the pioneer element was aban-
doning all else in the eager rush for
wealth; while in the mad struggle for gold
moral considerations, permanency and
the foundations of society were largely
cast out of consideration, this devoted
New England schoolmaster stood to his
self-appointed post, missionary and q
devotee, volunteer soldier in the cause
of education.
When the first great conf1agration in
San Francisco wiped out the home of his
efforts he was not discouraged, but out of
his own limited means he re-established
the system, and early had his educa-
tional scheme again i'll full operation.
The seed he sowed bore blade and stalk
and head, and the full harvest we have
to-day in the California school system, at
once the pride Of her citizens and the
crown of glory of California.
An accident to Mr.. Pelton that inflicted
severe injury to his head removed him
for ten years from the field of activity.
but not until he had filled high offices of
trust in the educational system he had
founded and his name had become 4
household word throughout the State.
But to take ten years out of the life of g
man of middle age is almost to put him
out of memory and place the State a de-
cade ahead of him.
Now, in his old age, he asks to be in
some degree REIN bursed for his early
OUTLAWS, which he made without thought
OF reward or repayment Necessity,

UNIFORM LIQUOR LICENSE
Was Considered by the Senate Judi.
ciary Committee Last Night.

Was Considered by the Senate Judi-
ciary Committee Last Night.
The Senate Judiciary Committee last
night had up for consideration Mahoney's
uniform liquor license bill. It provides
that any city, county or municipal corpo-
ration shall have power to regulate the
maintenance of saloons and fix the rate of
license OF the same; provided that in no
case shall such license tax exceed the
sum of $500 year; and provided further
that county license shall apply only to
persons engaged in retailing liquors out
side the limits of incorporated cities or
towns, and that such cities or towns shall
have the power to fix the license tax rate
inside the incorporated limits of the
same.
Both friend and foe of the measure were
out in force, and even the wine-growers
had their representatives in the field
While the opinion prevailed among
liquor men that any just tax would meet
their approval, they favored the passage
OF the bill on the ground that it fixed a
maximum rate above which a Board of
Supervisors might not go with impunity.
Attorney George W. Baker of San Fran
cisco represented the saloon men, and
made an able presentation of the matter
AT late hour the committee arose and
took the matter under advisement.
