Morgan, IT,, and George Diekerson. MT. Marks is a leading Popuiist Of the county, and in his speech; gave some excellent reasons why bis par ty should support Bryan and Sewall. MT.

Diekerson is an eloquent speaker. and his appeal in behalf of Bryan and Sewall and the free and unlim- lted coinage of silverwas frequently and loudly applauded. ag

Police Court was crowded with Social

Much interest was taken in the proceed

trial had a disappointing conclusion.
Charles d. Sunflower was on trial, and
T. T. Burns, A. Delaroche, Manuel Bat
tana and Leon Brown, his fellow-defend-
ants, declared they would abide by the de-
cisi on in his case. The defendants were

Hall. for obstructing the sidewalk. They
demanded and got jury trial yesterday.
Policeman Whalen, d. Cohen and Sun
flower testified as to the facts of the arrest,
and the defense maintained that the
meeting was public one. The jury spent
an hour in trying to arrive at verdict,
but gave it up for bad Job, and were dis
charged. They would not agree although
the defense wanted conviction, so that
the case could be carried to the Supreme
Court. This the Judge tried to tell the
jury without actually instructing to find
verdict of guilty. AT last he dismissed
them and stated he would hear the case
again next Monday.
A motion then will be made to dismiss.

Term of a Justice of the

A Case From Sacramento Which
Bears Upon the Tenure of
Office Bill.

Some doubt seems stills to exist in GER
tain quarters as to the effect of the deci-
sion in the recently decided case of Hale
against McGettigan upon the tenure of
Office bv city and county officers outside
of San Francisco. The answer of the Hon.
Attorney General to a question by the
Mayor OF Sacramento will, therefore, be
of interest:
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 2, 1896.
: c. III. Hubbard Esq, Mayor of Sacramento,
Sacramento, CdL.-DEAR SIR: am in receipt OF
your favor OF the 9th ult., in which you re-
quest my opinion ''as to whether or not the
City Justice of the Peace of the city of Sac
OF two or four years"
in the case OF People VS.. Sands, 1o2 CAL, IL,
IL was held where the appointment of the City
Justice of Oakland was under consideration
that 1.-The Office OF Justice of the Peace is a
creation OF the constitution. Such an officer is
elected at the general State election and quail
nes under the general State law. The
charter did not create the office of Justice of
the Peace. and under the authority of Ex
Parte An You, % CAL, 339, and the People
so If its trainers and the Legislature had SO
attempted" (See opinion page 17)
From this 1T follows that the City Justice OF
tne mere feace OF the CITY OF Sacramento must be
elected IN the same manner and at the same
time as the law prescribes for other Justices of
the Peace of Sacramento County
1909 90 ol d fne e9nnty government act OF
OF the Peace as township officer, and section
10 OF the same act Statutes of 1893, 367) pro-
vides that Gail elective county and township
othcers, except otherwise provided for in this
act shall De elected al the general election TO
be held in November, 1895, and every four
years thereafter unless otherwise herein pro
Yided."
In the recent case of Hale vs. McGettigan.
aeclded by the Supreme Court on August 25,
toSo, Whlch Is not yet reported, it was held
that this provision is constitutional / am,
therefore, OF the opinson that the City Justice
OF the Peace OF Sacramento is entitled to mold
