him to his home record for economy. The
amendment was not adopted. Bledsoe' s
amendment to reduce the appropriation of
Agnews from $262, 900 to 100000 was also
lost.
Sanford of Mendocino asked that the ap-
preparation for the insane asylum in his
county be raised from $S7 $50 to $195, 600, as
the figures given by the Committee on
Ways and Means allowed only for one
years support. Belshaw's amendment,
fixing the figure at $130, DDS, was accepted.
Bledsoe again appeared with an amend
ment when the matter of the Southern
California Hospital for the Insane and In
ebriates came up. He wanted the ap-
preparation cut from $116, 500 to $50, 900, but
failed again. The appropriation for the
Asylum for the Deaf and Dumb and Blind
at Berkeley was increased from $110,000 to
$119,3 300, the amount asked for by the Con-
troller, upon the assurance of Dodge and
North of Alameda that it was absolutely
necessary. Bledsoe alone voted no.
Reid of Weaverville announced that he
wanted the appropriation for the Home of
the Adult Blind at Oakland raised from
$37, ,2O4 to $50, 900, which is $4,000 less than
the Controllers estimate of what would be
required. He said he was in favor of
economy as well as Mr.. Bledsoe, "but," he
continued pointedly, 81 differ from the
gentleman from Humbol in one thing.
l do not object to appropriations solely to
get a reputation for economy so that | can
be reelected" The amendment was car
ried
A recess was taken till 3 o'clock, when
the appropriation bill was again taken up
and Huber of Los Angeles wanted the ap-
preparation for the Whittier Reform
School changed from $4,000 to $3.50 900,
explaining that the directors asked for
$500, 600. This sum was agreed upon as
necessary by the joint committees of the
Senate and Assembly on their trip to the
school. Many of the southern members
urged the adoption of the amendment and
the extra $4,000 was allowed, Bledsoe
voting no"
Bulla of Los Angeles had the appropria-
ton for the Normal School in his county
raised from $4,000 to 900. The Chico
School was awarded $4,000 instead of the
$44, GOO provided by the Ways and Means
Committee.
Berry of Santa Clara succeeded in get
ting $4500 for apparatus for the San Jose
School, and Bulla of Los Angeles wanted
$500 for the grounds of the Normal School
there instead of $4,000. This was granted.
Stansell's demand for $500 for the Chico
School instead of $4,000 was also acceded to.
Another debate ensued over the appro-
priation for the Fish Commission. The

its fair. This was to show that the outer
counties had no right to complain. "We
have been elected on pledges of economy.
We have increased the apportionments for
normal schools and asylums and San
Francisco has not kicked. But now" he
concluded, "she kicks"
Bulla said that while they were discuss
ing economy generally, the Assemblymen
seemed to be able to remember their
pledges, but that as soon as their own dis
tricts were touched they seemed to forget
them. He was willing to vote for the
State Fair, but he was not prepared to
break his pledge of economy for the
qualification of an unnecessary demand.
Swisler's amendment was carried.
McKelvey asked that the appropriation
of $3.50, 900 for orphans and half-orphans be
dropped. The House did not agree with
him.
Brusie asked that a reconsideration
be had of the amendment cutting down
the appropriation for printing State school
books from $4,000 to $4,000 A
vote was taken and the motion
lost. Brusie then asked that the appro-
priation bill as amended be the special
order for tomorrow. Powers of San Fran
cisco objected. "There has been species
ofrapid political work here he said. eve
were elected on pledges of economy. If we
pass this bill the tax levy will be nearer 60
cents than 80 cents. The members should
have time to exercise cool judgment in this
matter To accept this bill as it stands
means political death to some of us. We
are standing face to face with political sui
eide from which deliberation may save
u.s.
Brusie agreed that a little GOODNESS
might be beneficial for the San Franciscan
and the consideration of the bill was made
the special order for Thursday morning.
No bills were introduced, but resolutions
were declared in order.

Toner. 1t relates to gas corporations. IL
provides that in San Francisco the super

$50 of the Civil Code is amended by the bill
to read as follows: every gas corpora
ton is required upon application to lay
service pipes to connect with the main and
furnish accurate meters free of charge to
the consumer. If, for the space of ten days
after the application, the corporation re-
fuses or neglects to make such connection
or to furnish such meter required, 1t must
