Toe TRIBUNE Inaugural contest has but
four more weeks to run and judging by
the enthusiasm of the pupils and friends
of the leaders the interest will be at the
top notch from this out. Miss Martin
still leads the Pawtucket list, having in

Saturday nights standing. Sixty of these
votes came in Saturdays o'clock mail

Miss O'Brien's friends are working quiet
ly, and say that there is surprise in store
for their favorite. The change in the
closing time for the contest meets with the
appreciation of the candidates as it will
enable the successful two ample time to
arrange their affairs for the trip. No new
teachers can enter after next Saturday.
Miss Goldsmith retains her position at
the head of the Central Falls list, and the
steady volume of votes that are pouring
in for her evidences the fact that she has
large number of enthusiastic workers.
However, Miss Curran is but % votes be-

her success.

Morning.

The Funeral Of John Rock Solemnized THIS
Morning.
The funeral of John Rock, one OF the
oldest and most respected citizens of Pleas
ant View, was solemnized this morning
from his late residence on Middle street.
The deceased had resided in this neighbor-

that time had stood high in the estima-
ton of his friends and acquaintances.
A high mass OF requiem was sung by
Rev. Father Harty Of the Sacred Heart
Church, at which place the services were
held. The deceased's popularity was at
tested by the long line OF mourners who
followed the remains to their last resting
place in Mt. st. Mary's cemetery.
The bearers were Patrick Giblin, James
Fitzgerald, Patrick Rock and Thomas
Clancy.

The reason Of this decrease was IN part

preservation. There is another point
OF equal importance which should also
be taken into consideration, and that is
the tourist travel TO Truckee and other

FISH PRESERVATION.
Great Importance of Bill Pending in
the legislature.

(From the Marysville Democrat)
The Democrat" takes this occasion
to appeal to members of the LegiSla-
ture to give favorable consideration to
the request of the California Fish Com
mission in the matter of an appropri-
alton for restoration and preservation
of fish. The action taken by the Com
mittee on Ways and Means in recon-
mending that % 900 be appropriated
for conducting this important work
two years should not be concurred in.
The amount asked for is $4,000 and
that is $4,000 less than it should be to
give the necessary protection, if we
would keep the service up to the STAN
dard of excellence. Members of the
Legislature who are not familiar with
the existing conditions and the irnpor-
tance of the fish industry in California
should inform themselves before re-
cording their votes on this appropria-
ton; at the same time keep in mind
the fact that this is the peoples COM
mission.
The restoration and preservation of
the food fish in the public waters of the
state means much to the people when
we consider that nearly the same num>
Der OF pounds of fish is consumed in
year as there is Of beef When fish
are numerous they are to be had at
low price, but when the waters are
robbed day after day and the supply
is not replenished by artificial means,
the fish soon become scarce and then
the price advances to the detrment of
the consumers. And we must remem-
IO, bot .
of moderate means, who feel the loss
the greatest when the price of their
favOrite healthful food has become
luxury in the markets.
The United States Commissioner of
Fish and Fisheries, in a report made
last year, pays the following compli-
ment to California and her Fish Com
missioners:
The growth of the industry of late
years has been marked, and the near
future will doubtless witness an ad
vance in the relative position of Cali
fornia at the expense of several of the
East-coast States. Considering the
entire country, the rank of California
as fishing State is six; in the value
of its products it is surpassed only by
Massachusetts, Maryland, New York,
New Jersey and Virginia" (P 141)
And from the same report we take
the following official statement, tabu-
lated, showing the number of pounds
Of fish caught in four years and their
value in the San Francisco market:
In 1899 there We're 90, ,50o, ,055 pounds
valued at s., 465311.
In 1890 there We're $3.50, 1914 pounds
valued at s.. 592. .So6. In 1891 there
were %, ,4S3, 906 pounds valued at So
OBJ ,430. In 1899 there We're 81 ,S3S, 466
pounds valued at S3,022, 991. Thus it
will be seen that in four years there
were caught 217, l57 ,621 pounds of fish,
of which there is record, the market
value of which was $11 ,223, 564. But
this is not all the fish that were taken
as the statistics 90 not include the
thousands of pounds caught by persons
in many places, particularly those
taken contrary to law. The salmon
pack since 1888 in the canneres of the
State has averaged about 10000 cases
a year one year, that of 1888 being the

or discharged from its proportionate
share of taxes LEVIED for State pur-
poses. The provision of the Constitu-
ton following that, declares that the
Legislature shall not have the power
to impose taxes upon cities, or towns,
or public or municipal corporations. for
county, city or municipal purposes.
Clearly this, by intention, excludes
from the inhibition the levy of taxes
upon the people of municipalities for
public works of State purpose. The
statute books are full of Legislative en-
actments where this right and duty
has been exercised by the Legislature
outside of provision for the mainten-
ance of the Government and State in
stitutions. A State highway system
is in every respect a State institution.

HIGHWAY TAXATION,

Opponents of the highway bills
upon which the Senate is now to pass
raise an objection to the measures on
the ground that road districts lie out
side of municipalities, and that the
people within such cities cannot be
taxed for road purposes outside of
municipal bounds.
They rely largely upon a decision of
the Supreme Court reported in Goth
Cal. page G3. Martin VS. Aston. In
that case the court held that under
Section 2G64 of the Political Code, the
people Of municipalities who are taxed
for maintenance of streets cannot be
also taxed for maintenance of county
roads in road districts.
But we find nothing in that decision
touching the issue in hand. The de-
trict purposes the people of municipal
tiles cannot be taxed. But the meas
ures in hand make no such proposition.
They propose uniform taxation for
CONSTRUCTOR OF state highways upon Il
clearly defined system regardless of
districts and counties. If there is an
apparent conflict between the code
section referred to and the proposed
highway statute, then the rule is that
they must be construed together.
Under that rule it will be seen that
apparent conflict disappears. The tax
is general, uniform and for a general
purpose. affecting all alike. 1t is not
a proposition to tax generally for
construction of district highways, but
for State system affecting alike and
uniformly all the State and the peo-
pie taxable within it,
The proposed tax is for State pur-
poses and the Constitution expressly
provides that no municipality, or
