have shown, must necessarily by its

not to some disorder. In respect OF the

this corporation is entrusted with the
running OF these roads as the servant OF
the people OF the state. Il, therefore.
remains for me to. determine the form
of the writ, whether it shall be peremp-
tory or alternate.
SIN one aspect OF the case there seems
to be an issue of fact presented, and if
an issue be presented the law does not
permit me to decide it and allow per-
emptory writ, but requires me to allow
an alternative writ which has the effect
OF reserving aide issue of fact to be
tried by jury or by the court if go
agreed upon. At one place in its an

why its employees would not continue
working for it, was that it refused to

ployees in respect to the frequency with
which cars could be run and the number

to abolish trippers as interfering with
the running or management OF the road,

be allowed to run "a many trippers as
it chooses If it would only pay the men

case imagine there would be no trouble.
Each party has the right to obtain the
best terms it can, and ae was said in
the freight handlers case. ii the com.
pany cannot got men at the price it
thinks fair, it is bound TO get them at a
price it may deem sxorbitant, because

Such was the disposition of that point
by the learned justice.

SACRAMENTO, Jan. 24.-The Republic
can menu ers of the senate were in eau
Gus tonight to agree upon some plan OF
action with reference to the proposed
investigation OF official corruption in
San Francisco. The Republicans are
alarmed at the proposition to give the
power Of appointing such a commission
to Democratic governor.
No positive plan OF action was arrived
at, but it was agreed to fight for delay.
When the resolution comes up as a
special order tomorrow an attempt will
be made to force an indefinite post
ponement. The caucus adjourned to
meet on Wednesday next. when the
matter will be again disc used.
Senator MCGOWAN has proposition
to investigate the recent election in San
Francisco only 40 far as the vote for gov.
ernor is involved. This. he claims, is
the only phase OF the alleged San Fran
cisco frauds in which the state at large
can possibly be interested.

opposed the Orr resolution and insisted
that any committee to be sent to San

enough to do some good. He said he
would support any measure for thor

reported to the next Legislature.
Senator Msrtin of Dutch Flat opposed
any investigation in San Francisco.
Senator Buggy of San Francisco in an
impsssioned speech declared that poll
tics had come to such Q pass in San
Francisco that decent men co,ld not
participate in public affairs, and he
asserted that if something was not
done nine-tenths of the honorable
citizens OF San Francisco could not take
part in the next elections. He said:
TO PURIFY San FRANCISCO.
''San Francisco politics have become
10 corrupt under the control of those
unconvicted felons; that blind, lying
devil, Chris Buckley, and that rascal
Sam Rsiney, whom,no later than today
/ saw lobbying on the floor OF this small
chamber, and repeat the charge that
they are unconvicted felons-that decent
men can have nothing to do with
politics."
He added thatshe would step down

to purify the city. He did not want
the Orr resolution, to prevail. however.
He desired that the governor be author

WOMAN SUFFRAGE.

Capitol.
sAcRAMENTo. Jan. 24.-That the WON.
~ suffrage question ia to become one Of
Tia main issues before the present lsgia.
lailrs can no longer be doubted. The
ca lpaign of the woman suffragists was
bes Jun in earnest this evening at a big
4..eeting held in the chambers of the
state supreme court. The meeting was
called by Jadge Spencer, assemblyman
from Lasssn, Plumss and Sierra coun-
ties, &C chairman OF the assembly COM
mittes on elsction laws.
BY invitati on the election laws COM
mittee of the senate and members of the
Judiciary committees of both house and
senate were present. Every seat in the
chamber was occupied, many members
of the legislature and their wives being
in the audience.
Judge Spencer announced that t he
meeting had been called for the purpose
of giving opportunity for an open dis.
cussion of the question of the right OF
women to the elective franchise.
The several constitutional amend
ments and bills to enfranchise the
women of Califor mia would not, he said,
be discussed by the members of the leg.
islature in attendance. Instead it was
the intention to listen to several eminent
advocates of woman suffrage. who had
come to Sacramento in the interest OF
their cause.
Two eminent women lawyers, Laura
Deforce Gordon and Clara Foltz OF San
Francisco would, he said. address the
committees. T. V. Gator, the Populist
leader. was also in the audience.
Judge Spencer first introduced Mrs.
Gordon. In an exhaustive and convinc.
ing argumert she went into the consti-
tutional phsHe of the proposed legisla-
ton. Mrs. Gordon insisted that a
constitutional amendment is not need ed
to enfranchise the women of Californis.
While the constitution guarantees to all
male citizens OF certain classes the right
Of franchise, there is nothing in the
constitution, she argued, which can
possibly prevent the state legislature
from comforting the same rights and
privileges upon women. She cited
numerous supreme court decisions TO
substantia<e her claims. Her argument
was apparently incontrovertible.
Assemblymsn Dodge of Alameda, q
member of the assembly Judiciary COM
mittee. was present, however. to refute
her argument. He was ready to assert
that Mre. Gordon had overlooked num-
erous decisions of the California su-
preme court which hold that the consti-
tuition of California 10 grant of powers
to the legislature instead Of limitan
ton, and that there IL NO provision
under which the grant Of elective fran
chise may be extended to women by a
simple act OF the legislature. He was
not permitted, however, to air his
views. When Mrs. Gordon had con-
cluded, il was nearly 10 o'clock.
Mrs. Foltz followed her short address,
overlooking tho legal questions and
conining her argument wholly to the
social problem. Hey addresa Was eles

SALEM, Ore, Jan. 24'-Today was one
Of the most exciting ever experienced
in an Oregon senatorial election, and if
indications tonight are for aught long
fight is ahead. Nobody thought today
that an election would result from the
ballot. The Dolph men were husband
ing their forces all day, but entertained
no hope of success, as it was known one
absent representative would arrive in
the afternoon, thus making it incum-
bent upon Dolph to receive 46 votes to
be elected. The best they could possibly
do was to hold their own. The anti
Dolph men are still unorganized and
without leader. Their only apparent
object is to defeat Dolph. But as vet
they have been unable to center on a
candidate sufficiently satisfactory to
harmonic the conflicting elements in
their ranks.
One ballot was taken for United States
senator in joint session this afternoon.
The vote stood: Dolph, A; Moore, 10 (;
