SUGAR CANE.
Successful Experiments Made In
California.

Stockton, Cal. March 26.-The expert
ynents of growing sugar cane on the is
land of San Joaquin county, have been
SO successful that the government is
now preparing to engage in the culture
on large scale. Two experts who were
recently sent here by the SpreckelS people

lnent in growing cane were SO surprised
by the development that they procured
two tons of frst-class cane from the
Hawaiian islands and other sections to
make thorough tests of the lands here
aboutS. The cane was received a few
days ago and is now being set out for
thorough cultivation. The experts repre-
senting the Spreckels in this expect to see
the sugar cane grow here to height OF
thirty-five feet and TO contain mora
saccharine matter than any other cane
raised in this country

A Local Matter.

Van Horn said there was an error
regarding the power conveyed in the
bill. He held that there was to be no
establishment of any high school or
kindergarten unless the city or county
concerned in the matter should desire
to establish it. Then the people who
asked for the school would be taxed
to pay for the expense incurred 1t
was right TO give the power. He also
argued in favor of this class of schools.

Superintendent of Insurance Anthony
has been driven to the last ditch. Even
Attorney General Dawes says that his
claim for junketing expenses is illegal
and that Auditor Ccle did the right thing
in refusing to audit the claim.
The attorney general says that if the
superintendent of insurance is allowed to
draw on his contingent fund to pay his
expenses at a national convention it fol-
lows that the auditor, governor and other
state officers might hold conventions and
charge their expenses up to the state.
He thinks that there is no doubt that the
legislature did not intend that the con-
tingent funds should be so used.

The Kentucky man who was SEN
fenced to the penitentiary Is years ago
but was never committed seems to have
done just as we'll as if he had been in
generated. He appeared before the
governor recently and applied for a
full pardon, which was granted. He
probably had some other crime in view,
as it appears that he had led an exemp-
larry life during the 18 years that he was
under sentence. An improvement might
be made in dealing with certain crimi-
nails by suspending the execution of TIL
sentence in every instance during good
behavior. The chances are that culprit
would stand more in fear of sentence
already pronounced than of conviction
not yet obtained.

One dav last week while in Boise the
parties had some trouble concerning

ed notice on the dredge people 10 take

agreed TO do. The Andersons returned
in advance Of Wells, who upon his ar
rival found that instead Of vacatng. they
had staked of about one half Of his
claim and located it as their own prop
eriy. Wells then served another notice
on them to the effect that he would per-
forate the anatomy Of the first man who
turned wheel on that dredge for the
purpose Of mining that ground.
No attempt has been made to mine
since. and later report SAYS that the
