Representative staples Again
ModcstIy Endorses himself.
Yesterday was another of Represent
alive Johns working days, and all even
half-dozeu bills went up from his desk
to the reading clerk. None of them,
however, were of special Importance,
the number evidently being Intended to
make up the absence of thrill.
Senator Days joint resolution, icing
protest against the passage by con.
gress of the railroad pooling bill, was
brought up and made special order
for the session of next Monday. This is
a measure in which Senator Day has
taken the greatest interest. and it is
related tn at he had quite wordy con-
troversy with Senator Washburn on
this very matter while the senatorial
election was yet pending. Senator Day
has many friends in the house, who Will
make vigorous fight for the passage OF
MS fayorite measure. and there is appar-
emily little doubt that it will go through.

By Representative S,aples-H. F. Ne.
127-An act to suspend issuance of min
eral leases and contracts Oil state lands.
The last named measure was passed
under suspension of the rules, its au-
thor urging that there was immediate
necessity for SUCH q law, inasmuch as
there were many instances where men
were taking out mineral leases simply
Tor the sake of the timber on the land.
He explained that man might geta
section of land in this way and secure
control of six or seven million feet of
pine for just as long time as he chose
to hold 1t out. The glib manner in which
he rolled off the six or seven million
feet' was suggestive of some of the
dazzling statistics of the pine land COM
mlttee's report. but inasmuch as that
report claims that the state pine has
about all been stolen it is a pleasing
surprise to learn that there arc Still
sections lying around loose which con-
tain six or seven million feet of pine.
1t was doubtless the pleasure of learn
ing this which influenced the house
TO let the bill pass under suspension of
the rules, for it it well known that the
only bills MIR. Staples ever allows to
pass under such circumstances are his
own bills. He asks for more special IA
vors. demands more committee places.
and displays greater disposition to
take all for himself aud leave nothing
for the rest than any Other member, and
yet he never under any circumstances
allows the rules to pe suspended by
unanimous consent Tor any other per-
son WhOmsoever
Mr.. Staples bill simply prohibits the
land commissioner from issuing any
further leases on mineral land until
such time as the legislature may raise
the embargo by legislation bearing
upon the matter, and the pine land
committee, in Its inspired wisdom, will
doubtless supply the legislation.

NEWSPAPER VISITORS.

Daring Fiesta week l. Angeles will be
visited by large number of newspaper
men from all parts of this state and from
the east. Several New York and Chicago
papers will send correspondents and art
ISIS, and the San Franci SEQ journals will
send carload OF people with the Hall
Million clubs excursion. The Editorial
association of the northern part of the
state has paid Los Angeles the unusual
compliment of selecting it as the place
for their annual meeting and a train
load of northern editors, mostly from the
smaller towns. may be expected.
The Fiesta authorities should see TO it
that these visitors, who are almost wi TIL
out exception active working newspaper
men, receive all the courtesies that are
usually extended to the press, in order
that their stay may prove pleasant and
they may be enabled to give full and
favorable reports of all that transpires.
The result OF such reports will be to
double the attendance at the Fiesta in
succeeding years and carry the fame of
Los Angeles as place of resort far and
wide.
Thursday afternoon of Fiesta week is
set for a reception to the newspaper peo-
pie at the chamber of commerce. This
gathering should be well attended by
representative citizens. who should en-
deavor to acquaint our newspaper visitors
with the growth and prosperity OF the
Southern California metropolis.

THE DELINQUENT TAX SALES
How the New Law Affects the Tax
payers
Number Of Changes Which Should Be Bene
ficial to Property Owners and
to the State

Assem- blyman Bullas delinquent tax
bill, which was passed by the last legis-
lature and signed by the governor. makes
material changes in the methods of tax
sales and redemption, Of property.
In an interview yesterday on the matter
Mr.. Bulla said: The material difference
from the old law is that under the new
bill the state must take all property on
which the taxes are delinquent. except in
cities where. of course. the matter is gov
erned by ordinance.
Under the Old law annual sales were
held, at which any individual could pur-
chase tax title but now there will be a
day each year, when, ii the owner does
not appear and pay his tax, the property
will be stricken off to the state; the delin
quent list will be advertised as before and
ample opportunity given for REDEEM ption.
Heretofore tax title buyers have pur.
chased all the good property, but the poor
lots have been allowed to go to the state:
under the present system this evil will be
avoided. .
The bill changes the time for redemp
ton from one year to five; the penalty is
a 50 changed from the 80 per cent of the
old law to 10 per cent in months, 20
per cent for one year, 40 per cent for two
years, go per cent for three years, 80 per
cent Tor four years and 100 per cent for
five years. The object of making a slid
ing scale rate is to keep people from rro-
crastinating in paying their delin-
quencies.
"There is another provision in the ne W
law which think Will be productive of
much good. Heretofore when property
was sold TO The state after one year it was
dropped from the assessment roll, this
rule has been greatly abused. particularly
i'll San Francisco where property owners
have found it cheaper 10 be delinquent on
their taxes. have their property pass to
the state and thereby avoid assessment
and further taxation. When they wished
to sell and clear their title all they had to
do was to pay the state $ claim, for the
only way the state could complete its title
was by suit. BY the new bill the prop
erty sold 20 the state will be assessed for
five years and by this means there will be
several hundred thousand dollars added
to the assessment.
Each year the tax collector or assessor
must stamp on the tax receipt property
sold for taxes which cannot fail to give
the owner uuc notice, and will save a
large amount OF delinquent taxes every
year"

THE RECORD FOR MARCH

Although last month marked the close
of what is usually considered the winter
season, and decline could reasonably
value of last month S real estate trans
actions, it really proved the best month
since the beginning of the season. The
number of deeds recorded is given at 144: :
considerations amounted to 81, 701, ,9O4.
The latter amount, of course is mis-
leading, because of the large number of
merely nominal considerations included
The real value of the property thus trans
ferred amounted to very many times the
figure quoted. In the same month POI
building permits wers issued for work to
cost $226. s22. The steady enlargement of
the volume of transfers. many of them
to successful eastern capitalists, is encoup-
aging enough. But it is il the contem-
plation of improvements to the value of
nearly a quarter of million that our
greatest cause of congratulation is to be
found. People do not build without good
and ample reason to believe that there is
need for the structures. More buildings
mean moro people. The plans that are
now said to be under way in architects
offices will provide for buildings repre-
senting still greater outlay than the fig
ures above mentioned. In addition to
these structural Improvements, we are
assured of at least one new electric line,
the construction being now under way,
and radical improvement Of the several
street car services. 1t has also been com
puted by those competent to know that
a larger acreage has been set out this
last year than any preceding. If South
ern California and its chief city can SUBJ
NIT such tangible evidences OF prosperity
during season OF general depression and
apathy throughout the United States,
what may we not reasonably hope when
the industrial and financial conditions are
again normal?
