The keystone Of the Arch

In the edifice of health is vigor, which means
not merely muscular energy but an active dis
charge OF the various functions of the body
such as digestion, secretion of the bile, the ac-
tion of the bowels, the circulation of the blood.
Nothing moro actively and thoroughly con-
tributes to the united performance OF these
functions than the renowned tonic and regu-
lator, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters The result
of its use is speedy gain in strength, together
with the agreeable consciousness that the ten
ure OF life is being strengthened-that one is
laying up store Of vitality against the una
voidable draughts which old age makes upon
the system. The fortifying influence OF the
Bitters constitute it reliable safeguard against
malaria, rheumatism and kidney trouble,
Appetite and sleep improve through its use
and it protects the system from the effects of
cold and damp.

XIV of the Cons stitution pro.
hibits local and special legislation.
Section of Article ~ is in part as fol.
lows: The Legislature shall establish a
system of county government which shall
be uniform throughout the state, etc.
Section of Article XI is in part as fol
lows The Legislature, by general and
uniform laws, shall provide for the cleo
ton or apportionment in the several
counties of Boards of Supervisors, Sher-
lffs, ETC., and shall prescribe their duties
and fix their terms of office. 1t shall regu-
late the compensation of all such officers
in proportion to their duties, and for this
purpose Hay classify the counties by
population
g 1t has been held by the Supreme Court
that law comforting authority upon the
officers of counties of any one particular
class without comforting the like authority
upon the same officers in all the other
counties such as the present proposed pill
proposes to do, controvenes the provision
of the above section of the Constitution
and is void as special legislation.
I'm Welsh VS.. Bromley, California case,
Justice Harris said The above provisions
of the county government act OF 1891 Gun
der which it was attempted to confer ar-
thority for District Attorneys of the eighth
class to determine whether they shall
appoint any Deputy by which counties
the others and authority conferred
upon the District Attorneys therein, which
is not granted to that officer in other
counties, renders the act to that extent
local and special, and in violation OF a
provision of the constitution"
1.-The dispatch shown to me indicates
that the northern counties desire similar
legislation for themselves. There should
be no objections to making the proposed
bill general and uniform, throughout the
state and thus avoid the only. possible
constitutional objection. In this case
the northern counties, and, think, all
the counties in the state, will want the
bill passed so that they can avail them
selves of its provisions.
Under the bill, if it is made general,
Los Angeles county, by issuing bonds,
can build a road across the whole state or
any part of it-but she cannot stop any
other county from building that part OF
the line which passes over its territory.
II am delighted at the prospect and
feel confident that the people of the
county will, at the proper time, vote in
favor of issuing bonds to build another
transcontinental line. 1t is what South
ern California needs and will have"
The herald., 1895-02-25
NO DOUBT ABOUT 1T NOW
Colonel, narb1e Says That the "Cincinna
Plan" WIN Be Passed

Colonel, narble Says That the "Cincinnati
Plan" WIN Be Passed
Colonel J. NJ. G. Marble was seen late
last evening at his home on Figueroa
street by Herald reporter. He was
highly delighted when told the contents
OF the dispatch from Sacramento. "You
may say" said he, that l have not the
slightest doubt, and never did have, for
that matter, but that the bill would pass.
Now that the northern counties desire the
passage of such measure, SO that they
can build line to meet the Great North
ern, and don't doubt now but that enough
votes are obtainable to secure the passage
of the bill.
"It has been claimed by several mem
bers of the committee appointed to go to
Sacramento, Mr.. Finlayson being the
most outspoken perhaps, that the bill
would have to be made general in its pro-
visions before it could be passed, but l
differ with them very materially. M. f.
Allen, Shirley Ward, Mr.. Davis, and sew
eral of the leading attorneys of this city,
drafted the bill from the bill introduced
in the Ohio Legislature, and passed,
which has since been known as the Gin
cinnati plan. AS soon as it became a
law Mr.. Walker, who was solicitor of the
city OF Cincinnati at the time, and very
learned man, refused to perform certain
duties provided for him to do. He claimed
that the Dill was unCOnSulIutlOnal mas
much as it was special legislation. The
celebrated case Of Walker VS.. the City of
Cincinnati followed, and the Supreme
Court held that the law was constitu-
tional, and, as everybody knows, Cincin-
natl built road down to Chattanooga,
Tenn, and it is now and since has been a
paying investment.
: ''When the Salt Lake road is built there
is no question but that it will pay hand
somely upon the investment.
II am firm in the belief now that the
bill will pass and that the proposition of
issuing bonds to build the Salt Lake road
will be submitted to the people, and
feel confident that they will vote the
bonds. 1t will give them an opportunity
to help Los Angeles and make it the lar
gest city on the Coast and the richest in
the possession of manufactures.
"It is a poor time now to assume that
the measure proposed is unconstitutional.
The Ohio state Supreme Court, in state
where the constitution is as plain as Cali
forna's on the matter of special legisla-
ton, has decided that the commonwealth
plan is constitutional. The bill we pro-
pose to introduce is taken from that and
changed as little as possible. 1t is held in
Ohio. / see no reason why it should not
be good law in California.

Special to the HERALD.
Sacramento, Feb. 24.-r1alor Dom
nell Is still busy trying to arrange a
salary list for Los Angeles county
officials and hopes to have the sched-
ule ready to present to the delegation
tomorrow. The general plan already
outlined in The Herald of a lump sum
for each official will be followed.
Tomorrow is the last day for the in-
PRODUCTION of new bills, and promises
to be signaIized by the introduction of
more measures than any day of the
session except the first bill day.
The proposition of Los Angeles to
ask the Legislature for permission to
issue bonds to build a railroad to Salt
Lake is very we'll received here. A
number of counties in the northern
part of the state are anxious to be
allowed to bond themselves SO as to
offer inducements to the Great North
ern to build south from Puget Sound.
If q combination can be made with
them there is no question but that
the bill can be passed, but the bill
must be introduced by Monday.
Senator Gleaves favors the county
bonding for railroad purposes, but be-
lieves it will require constitutional
amendment before the bonding can be
done. All of the Los Angeles dele
CATION will do all they can to help the
measure through quickly.
A project is on foot to have Senator
G!eaves appointed committee of one
q visit all harbors and rivers needing
federal help in the state and prepare
full report for presentation to the
next Congress. Gleaves will go East
and spend the winter trying to get
good appropriations for this state,
which, he says, does not get what is
due it in this respect. T.
