SAN FRANCISCO OBJECTS.

The proposition to investigate the
municipal government Is Questionable
to some Of the people Of our sister me-
tropolis. An investigation would not be
intended to do harm, but to do good.
The object really is to do San Francisco
q kindly service. 1t will not be pre-
tended by the good people of the Bay
city that their local government is go
perfect that's cannot be improved. If
one 10 to believe that half the COM
plants made are we'll founded. an inn
partial and thorough investigation is
necessary. The impression widely pre-
walls that San Francisco does not get
along very we'll with her own officers,
that there are political machines and
bosses who run things pretty much for
their own interest. Why not have the
subject inquired into7 II affairs have
been and are going we'll it would be e
vindication and = consolation to the
people In other parts of the state. We
do not object, and We do not know any
one here who does object to having the
Los Angeles city government invssti-
gated. If an investigating committee
can bring to light any official miscon.
duct or mistakes. or should be able to
suggest Improvements all our people
would accept their works with thanks.
Investigations are the most harmless
things in the world when all ia right.
and most useful when there il crooked
work or errors OF judgment.
A city is!not an automaton il il q Gre.
alton OF state law, and the citizens oil
the state at large are interested in the
government Of San Francisco. It may
be that the governments needs to be
raked over, and should 1t need and de-
serve 1t there are plenty Of cities that
have had like experience. The grea,
metropolis of the nation has had such
an experience recently. much to the de-
light Of the people Of the nation and to
the benefit of the people OF New York.
There has been long period OF political
and municipal misdoings in many oil
our cities. The nation has become wea.
ried OF the bad repute that rests upon
the country in consequence of these
misdoings. 1t Ia best they should be
stopped, and thorough investig alton il
the beginning Of the work. When the
Legislature learns just what the evils are
| it can remedy them effectually.

LIGHT rs BREAKING.

The Legislature has got 80 far along on
the road OF economy that the attaches
committee has actually decided to report
in favor Of q considerable reduction OF
the force of attaches. 1t has taken .
Rood while to get thus far, though o
great reduction should have been the
work of but day. Tho political ma.
chine has held the reform back through
half the session 90 that the superhuous
attaches will get pay for that time.
Speaker Lynch glazed Mr.. Weyse. an
inexperienced and Impossible member,
at the head OF the attaches com mittse OF
the assembly, and 1t seems to have been
an easy matter to convince him that
large force was necessary, In order, per
haps, to take care Of the boys. Weyse may
not have gone very far into machine
politics. bat should he do 80 he will find
that such politics in the pursuit. OF pub
lie plumber ia insatiabls. 1t perhaps
would be interesting to know how the
thumbscrew has been praoticsd upon
the present Legislature to give places to
tho instruments OF the political ma.
chine. The political lsechss are hard
to shake off. but We have considerable
hope that the Legislature will do some
thing in that direction, and II now looks
a. if il would.
The reluctance displayed. however, In.
dictates that old time extravaganza
would have been INDUCED in were II
not for the significant expression Of
pnblic sentiment in favor OF economy.
Tho defeat Of Burnsism created constsr-
nation, and csused tho expressions in
favor OF economy and reform, on the
part OF some Of our aolons at Sacrament
to. Governor Budd realizes his strate-
gic position and he is making tho best
possible use OF 1t. With the governor
to lead and public sentiment to push
thers is good ground to hope that some.
thing will be done to materially tighten
the burden OF the taxpayers. II Burns
had succeeded it ia not probable that
there would have been any ad-
vance made. When machine politics
are Endorsed the bosses snap their I'm
gers at the people, and il 10 proper they
should. for the people are at last 70.
sponsible ii they tolerate Irregularities,
corruption and extravsgance. The
HERALD stands ready to support who
ever performs good work, and to ex-
pose and denouncs those who lag or
stand in the way of progress.

IRRIGATION OF DESERT LAND.

By an act of congress approved August
10, 1894, each of the several states in
the arid region may select l,00O. 0OO
acres Of desert land, which the govern
ment will patent to the state or its as
signs in tracts not to exceed 100 acres a.
coon as the same shall be placed under
irrigation and cultivation BY actual set
tiers.
The first step is for the state to file
map Of the land proposed to be irrigated.
which shall exhibit plan showing the
mode Of the contsm plated irrigation.
and which plan shall be sufficient to
thoroughly irrigsts said land and pre-
pare 1t to raise ordinary agricultural
crops, and also the source OF the water
to be used for irrigation and rsclsma-
ton. The state after that can make the
necessary contracts TO cause the lands to
be reclaimed and to induce settlement
and cultivation. The proceeds Of the
sale Of the lands can be used to pay the
expense Of irrigation and reclamation.
Such 10 the substance OF the law.
The government possesses about $780,
600. 900 acres of arid land in the seven
teen states and territories in the arid
belt. There has been much agitation OF
the subject of placing these lands under
irrigation-not only these, but the lands
held by the states for school purposes,
and those owned by railroad companies .
and other private parties. In view
OF the fact that there 10 left very
little land cultivabls without Ire
rigation, the subject has become
one Of national - we'll - section
al importance. There is decided SEN
timent favorable to the doing Of the
work by the government, and also .
sentiment somewhat limited in extent
favorable to the transfer Of the arid
lands to the states. for the purpose OF
putting them under irrigation and oul-
tivation through methods the states
may adopt.
The Law referred to 10 proposition
to dispose OF but q very small portion OF
the desert lands, not more than 17,000,-
600 scres should all the states take ac-
ton under the law. 1t 10. however, .
mode for beginning the work, and ii
success attends the plan 1t can and no
doubt will bs enlarged upon. Wyoming
is already moving in the matter. and
will probably accept under the law.
We have heard of no other state that
has taken action in the matter. It 10 o
subject worthy OF consideration. and it
il probably wise for the legislature to
mako sufficient appropriation to have
the lands examined and selected and
the necessary map fled. The survey Of
the lands IL made at the expense Of the
general government. California has
considerable bodies OF desert land, and
examination, selection and mapping
would not cost any great sum. The
work can be done through the surveyors
generals Office. II will require an act Of
the legislature to authorize the state to
enter into an arrangement with the gov.
eminent. We hope the wise men at
Sacramento will look into this matter
and pass the necessary law.

The teaching of hygiene is in itself so laud-

AN ARBITRARY RULE.

The supervisors OF this county have q
method of transscting public business
that ia peculiarly their own. In the
discharge of their official duties they
take the citizens into their confidence.
whenever they believe that courtesy is
due to the taxpayer.
Whenever q matter is discussed that
is of particular Importance they retire
to an ante-room, where they meet in
secret session and report publicly the
result of their star chamber proceed
ings. In this manner the public does
not receive the benefit OF the reasons
that induced the supervisors to reach
their decision on matters OF public inn
portauce.
The most arbitrary rule. however.

vided by law. and BY the clerk OF the
city council.
But the supervisors emphatically 70,
fuse to allow any documents to be made
public until they have taken action In
the matter. That such practices may
cad to injury to parties interested 10 at
once apparent. Nothing can be gained
by secrecy, unless 1t may be BY those
who are bound to transact their business
in public.
Take. for instance, an application for
q saloon license. In concsaling the Al
Ing OF such petition, the citizens who
imay oppose the granting OF the appli-
cation are kept in complete ignorance.
They are thereby deprived Of the right
to enter protest and tho SUPERVISOR
may grant license before they can be
made aware of the feelings OF those who
are opposed to that action.
In other matters secrecy can likewise
have only one tendency. No authority
can be found BY which the supervisors
can justify their action, and it 10 the
right OF the public to know what IL asked
OF them before they decide to grant or
refuse the request.

THE CLOVEN FOOT.

Mr.. Wsyse Of Santa Monica has
eaussd the Kenyon resolution in favor
Of deep seA harbor 1t San Pedro to be
amended to read ~ though It were
drawn up by the venerable Mr.. Hunt
lngton himself.

sentiment OF the convention which
adopted the platform. nor with tho
declarations Of the Republican csndi-
date for congress in this district, who
was forced to come out squarely and
unequivocally in favor Of San Pedro or
tsopsrdize his chances of election. Nor
does 1t represent the wishes OF the
people Of Los Angeles county.
The latter consideration will probs-
bly, weigh as lightly with Mr.. Weyss %
any Of the former considerations.
II the Legislature is not owned by the

last ten days nearly two-thirds OF the
voting population OF Los Angeles county
has petitionsd congress in favor OF San
Pedro and in the same petition declared
against Mr.. Huntington's pct scheme OF
constructing private harbor for his cor
porAtion at government expense, 1t will
unhesitatingly strike out the Weyse
amendment.
The other members OF the delegation
from this county have undoubtedly in
Ausncs enough to cause the Wsyse
amendment TO be stricken out

tions reports the resolution to the as
sembly. The members from Loa An
