HON. ca. BOOTELLE TONIGHT
Will Talk for Protection and Sound
Money.
The County Candidates to Hold Forth
at Folsom - Excursion
Train.

The people Of Sacramento will have
an opportunity tonight to hear the pO-
litical questions Of the day discussed by
one of the ableSt men in the country,
Congressman Charles A. Boutelle OF
Maine, who will speak at the Metropoli-
tan Theater.
Mr.. Boutelle is a. Republican and a.
man who has been at the front in mat
ters of National legislation and politics
for man years. His convictions are the
result of long experience and observa-
ton in public life, and those who go to
hear him may depend on it that he will
substantiate all he says.
U. s. Grant Camp, No. ., of the Re-
publican Army and Navy League, will
meet at 1:30 o'clock this evening and
march in body to the Boutelle meeting.
All members and all eX-soldiers and
sailors and their sons of voting age are
requested to attend and bring their
badges and flags.
JOHNSON AT GAIT.
Gait is evidently in line for Grove L.
Johnson, and if the meeting held at that
place last evening is a fair criterion by
which to judge of the sentiment of her
citizens, she will roll him up a handsome
majority
The meeting addressed by Mr.. John
son at that place last evening was not
only the most largely attended, but was
also the most enthusiastic ever known
in the history Of the town Thousands
of people were present, and all were
cheering for Johnson.
Every hamlet and nearly every farm
house for miles in every direction sent
its quota of voters, and loads were set
down from country points distant TWEEN
ty miles.
Mr.. Johnson made one of the most
mastery and logical arguments ever
listened to by the assembly, and the
speech throughout was punctuated with
applause. Enthusiasm bubbled up and
overfiowed, and 1T is now felt certain
that two of the three precincts in the
township which the Democrats and
Populists have depended upon to cut
down Johnson's majority In the county
will all be in the procession on election
day and give De Vries a very light vote.
THE FOLSOM MEETING.
Tonight the lively town Of Folsom
will be livelier than ever The Republi-
can county candidates viii hold a meet
ing there, at the close Of which there will
be dance.
An excursion train will be run from

publican Clubs of this city and the Oak
Park and Perkins Clubs will go on the

ring in the foothill town.
The members Of the Oak Park Club

promptly at their club headquarters at

ANTI-DERRIS.
River-Bed Timing in the Feather Stir
ring Up SIiCkens.

The monthly meeting of the Execu-
tive Committee of the Anti Debris AS
sociation was held in this city yesterday.
John c. White of Yuba presiding in the
absence of Chairman Morrison.
The monthly report of Manager w. T.
Phipps was presented, detailing the
character of the work done during Sep
tember by the watchmen in the employ
of the association.
The report stated that many COM
plants had been made as to the injuri
Gus effects produced by mining in the
river beds near Oroville, by which the
material in the river was excavated, re-
moved by elevators and placed again in
the rivers. This kind of mining is not
yet carried on extensively, but If it
should grow in magnitude 1t is feared
that it may be almost as destructive as
hydraulic mining.
A report was made by r. T. Devlin,
attorney for the association, regarding
the cases commenced by the association
and now pending in the Federal and
State courts. On the Costumes River
Cy Mulkey and Seth Loveless have
erected dams since the issuance Of the
injunction against their restraining
works, which the association thought
would prove sufficient to prevent the de-
bris from entering the river. Accord
ingly the injunction was dissolved as to
them on condition that such works be
maintained and that they allow no ma
terial from their mines to enter the
river.
The report states that Judge Nc
Kenna Of the United States Circuit
Court will probably soon render his de-
cision in the North Bloomfield case, in
volving the construction of the Act of
Congress prohibiting hydraulic mining
where permits have not been obtained.

THE SECRETARY OF STATE.
La. Browns Biennial Report to the
Governor.
FINANCIAL and Other rIatters-Recom-
mendations as to the
Capitol.

Secretary of State L. H. Brown has
hled with Governor Budd his Tirst BIZ
ennial report, embracing the years COM
mencing July 1, 1894, and ending June
80, 1896. 1t is largely composed Of tab
ulated statements relative to the sew
eral departments of the State, and con-
tainS facts concerning the Capitol
building, statements showing repairs
and expenditures and necessary recon-
mendations, and is replete with inter-
est.
It is shown that within the period
covered by the report 2,036 articles of
incorporation have been filed, 1926
seals affixed to certified copies, and
1876 notarial commissions attested
The receipts of the department since
July 1, 1894. were $46 552 SO; Of which
sum S36, $40 was for fees, and which
was paid into the State Treasury as
provided by law, to the credit of the
State Library fund, and the balance,
S9,9S2 90, received for the sale of stat
utes, books, ballot paper and maps, was
paid into the State Treasury to the
credit of the general fund.
In referring to the Capitol building
the Secretary observes that visitors
often remark that the interior of the
building is not in keeping with the ex-
terror and the park that surrounds it,
and says many of the offices, the roof
and the plumbing should be oVerhauled.
Upon the cupola Of the dome, at an
elevation Of 240 feet from the ground,
eight electric arc lights of 1000 candle
power each, have been placed. On a
clear night these lights can be seen a
distance Of from nifty to seventy five
miles They contribute greatly toward
lighting the grounds, as well as the
city generally. The expense of the
lights Is but $40 month, and would,
two years ago, have cost S120.
The corridors on the lower floor have
been laid with handsome tiling, the
superiority Of which, and Of the work
performed. is very noticeable.
The stationery July /, 1896. was val
ued ast $3.315 90. as compared with
S3,558 II January Z, 1885, and during
the past year that furnished to officials
amounted to S2,05S 80, being 1904 So
less than for the year next preceding.
Following are some Of the recommen-
dations made by Secretary Brown:

Cred dollars two electric motors, with
attachments and pump, could be placed
