he said, to allow two drunken men to
reel out of the front door. In conclu-
sion he said it was hard to pull people
up when they were 50 many strong con-

TESTIMON . FOR DEFENSE.
In defense of himself Mr.. Weichel
called John j. O'Boyle, who testified
that the place was conducted i'm Il legal
and orderly way and Patrolman Day,
who never found cause to complain of It
and then went ON the stand himself
and after denying that he was in any
way responsible for the tenants up
stairs said he would remove the Offend
ing whiskey barrels and would haN e
never placed them there if he thought
they were causing any onense
When the Thirteenth ward was
reached Mr.. Lathrope came UP with re-
monstrances against VIII. Horn, James
j. Kelly and George Simpson, alleg-
ing the usual reason that the people of
the Thirteenth ward We're almost unan.
imously opposed to having saloons in
the ward and in the case of Horn and
Simpson he charged that these places
did not bear the least semblance Of a
hotel
Ward e. Horn pleaded for the Horn
license and O'Brien q Kelly and Col
onel Fitzsimons urged the necessity of
Kelly's place. The latter house is sit
uated on Washington avenue nearly
opposite the county jail. It was built
expressly for hotel purposes four years
ago at a cost of $500, but has never
been licensed. The fact that the build
ing Is not located in that part of the
Thirteenth ward in which the objectors
live, but in sort of disjOinted portion
| of the ward and at one of it's eXtremi-
ties was urged by Mr. Kelly as one OF
the strong reasons why the remon-
STRANGE should not have any weight
Mr.. Fit2simmOns referred TO Mr. Kel-
ly'S competency and to the fact that he
was a courteous, sober man. who coulG
be relied upon to conduct the hotel IL
a highly becoming manner. Mr.. Lath.
rope in opposition called to mind tie
fact that the building was near the
stove works. that it had evidently beer
| built to catch the trade of the stove
works employees, and that the stove
! works people We're opposed to the
! granting of the license.

THE YOSEMITE ROAD.

n PRELIMINARY step essential to the proper
I I settlement Of the controversy the best
means of providing roadways to Yosemite has
been taken by Congressman De Vries by the intro
duction OF bill providing for the appointment of
commission by the Secretary OF War to make surveys
and report upon them before December I, 1893.
By the terms of the bill the proposed commission
is to consist OF two members OF the Engineer Corps
OF the United States army and duly licensed and
practicing engineer who shall be a member OF the
California Bureau of Highways. The commission is
charged to make surveys of the existing toll roads,
known as Oak Flat, Coultervie, Wawona and Tioga
roads, and also to survey roads by the best possible
grades from the valley to points in Merced Stans-
laus, Tuolumne and Mariposa counties. The COM
mission is therefore expected to thoroughly study the
whole subject and the report will furnish Congress
with the data upon which to decide where the roads
shall be constructed and the amount of the appro-
priation necessary to defray the cost.
The appointment of such commission will not
in any way delay the work of constructing the pro-
posed roads, since clear the Government will not
make appropriation for them until an official sur
vey has been made and the report filed at Washing
ton. The creation of the commission is therefore the
first step toward the accomplishment of the long de-
sired thoroughfares into the valley and merits the
support of the entire California delegation in Con-
gress.
There can be no question that the roads ought to
be provided by the General Government rather than
by the State for the Government owns nearly all the
land through which they will run, no matter what
route may be decided upon. 1t deals fairly with
those who advocate the purchase Of existing roads
as well as with those who prefer that roads
should be built, and makes no discrimination as to
what county or counties shall have roadway These
disputed points it leaves the Government to settle
and provides, moreover, that the commission shall
make report upon all feasible routes and not upon
those only which it believes to be most desirable
If the bill can be promptly enacted and the COM
mission works with due diligence the report can be
made by the date fixed, and when Congress meets
next December delegation at Washington will
have the data upon which to urge an appropriation
for the work. To that end therefore, all our ener-
gies should be directed at this uncture Let us drop
the controversy over the question between the old
roads or new roads and push the fight for Govern
ment commission now and Government appropria-
ton next year II this is done it will be but few
years before to Yosemite will be so easy and
free from vexatious charges that the beautiful val
ley will be popular resort and the delight of its
romantic loveliness will be within reach of all

CHEAP HORSES.

Since the prizes raced for on the turf
are growing smaller every year fail to
see why any man should pay an exor-
bitant price for an undeveloped horse
The Dwyer confederacy made its gold
and fame by purchasing developed
horses-three, four and five year olds-
known to be sound and the best in their
class. If a dangerous horse came out Of
a rival stable he became the proper
ty of Phil and Mike at any price.
They swept the turf for years because
they purchased the opposition. They
bought Kingston because they shrewdly
perceived that he was destined to beat
Hanover. A developed horse is Cheap
at any price, if he can beat all other
horses. A two-year-old is dear at any
price at the close of the racing season.
1t is a poor gamble.-New York Press.

TWO LESSONS OF WARNING.

G AN JOSE and Los Angeles-beautifu cities
y both and full OF good people--are at this mo-
- ment furnishing the State with warning lessons
OF the perncious effects of bad public administration
upon the general welfare OF the community In each
OF these cities movements were under way for the
accomplishment OF objects of great municipal i'm
portance and in each the movement was checked and
defeated by the exposure of official misconduct
In San Jose long cherished desire for city exten-
sion seemed a short time ago to be in fair way of
fulhllment. An agitation upon the subject resulted
in awakening strong popular sentiment in its favor
and committees appointed to conduct a CAM
pagn OF education tending to an early vote on the
proposition Just at the moment when all was most
promising came the disclosures OF the Grand Jury
and the consequent uncoverng of the many misdeeds
OF the political gang that dominates the city and to
large extent the county. In the face of these ex-
posures was impossible to carry forward the move
ment for city extension. The project had to be
dropped and San Jose will remain hide bound in her
narrow limits for another year at least by of
the corruption of few men in Office.
In Los Angeles the case is even worse. The people
of that city had under consideration proposition to
vote bonds for the building of school houses fire
engine houses and for re-fundng the public debt at
a lower rate OF interest. The objects aimed at by
the proposed bond issue good. 1t is not denied
that new buildings for the School and Fire depart
ments needed, nor that the re-funding of the
debt would be act of genuine economy Public
sentiment favored the proposals and their adoption
was well assured when the discovery was made OF
corruption in the School Board Straightway the
enthusiasm for municipal Improvements ceased, and
on election day all the bond propositions were de-
feated
1t is we'll known that the best army in the world
will not fight with vigor under general whom it
does not trust. Something of the same need of right
leadership is shown in the history OF communities
The most progressive of citizens lose their ardor and
their public spirit when their officials show them
selves unworthy of trust Thus corruption or neff-
cheney in Office does more harm than appears on the
surface. It not only wastes money collected by tax
alton, but it checks popular enterprise of all kinds
The moral OF the lessons taught by San Jose and Los
Angeles is too plain to be mistaken Public prosper
ity and progress demand as conditions precedent
purity in politics ard honesty in office

MUSIC FOR THEIR SOULS.

"a ANSAS CITY musicians have hit upon
n happy thought They would reform criminals
by playing to them soulful melodies. The
scheme will be useful. 1t will afford an opportunity
to try new on the dog, and if the tune prove
not deadly and especially if it tend to the elevation
OF the listeners then will it be doubly blessed But
II is painful to think of possible results. Supposing
some thoughtess enthusiast to strike up "A
Hot Time? Who then would be responsible for
the riot sure to follow? A question arises as to
whether the musicians are not undertaking too much
There are prisoners i'll such frame OF mind that the
only sound they would recognize as really musical
would be that made by a rattail file in the act of
eating through a bar Shall such be doed out "All
Coons Look Alike to Me" and hold their peace?
Hardly However, the Kansas City scheme is only
in the initial stage and it is too to pronounce
upon the absolute virtue OF it.
