FOR THE FOOD and SHELTER.
Supervisors Will Assist Toward Its Main
tenanCe.
District Attorneys Opinion Relative
to Publication of Certain
Reports.

| The Board of Supervisors yesterday
listened to earnest appeals from Frank
Miller and H WeinStock and L. L..
| Lewis for a small monthly donation to-
ward the expenses incurred by the Sal
walton Army in its efforts to provide
with food and lodging the unfortunates
who are homeless and penniless, but
willing to work
The board was told how the plan
adopted by the Associated Charities
had failed through the establishment of
the State rock-crushing plant, and how
| the Salvation Army had run some 5000
behind since the inauguration of its
Food and Shelter, where the poor are
given meals and lodgings. While en-
ployment is offered to those who apply
for relief still its work is of an unpro-
ductive character and does not recon-
pense the army for its outlay
After the visitors had made their very
effective arguments, Supervisor Morri-
son moved that the $50 per month
asked to be allowed, the same to be
terminated at the will of the board.
The motion was carried unanimously.
PUBLICATION OF REPORTS.
The following communication was
received from District Attorney Ryan
IN relation to the publication of the
Sc mi annual reports of the State Treas
I1er ETC.:
To the Honorable Board of Super
visors of Sacramento County-Gentle-
men: In response to your query rela-
tive to the publication of a statement
of the financial condition of the county,
Subdivision "A of Section % of the
County Government Act (see statutes
1893, page $50 provides:
The board shall cause to be pub
lished a Semi-annual statement of the
financial condition of the county, show
ing in detail the expenditures author
lied during the preceding six months,
and, after each session of the board
a full statement of their proceedings -
1t is clearly the object of this pro-
vision to give public notice of all the
county receipts and disbursements.
The expenditures should be itemiZed
in detail, giving the name of the per-
son and the amount paid. There need
be butt one publication.
| FRANK D. RYAN, District Attorney.
OTHER MATTERS.
| The death of Philip Wise of Walnut
Grove was announced to the board by
Supervisor Morrison, who paid a neat
tribute to the character of the deceased.
Mr.. Wise had for years acted in the ca
racity of Road Overseer in that part of
the county, and was an upright, con-
| scientious citizen.
Chairman Jenkins also spoke in kind
| ly terms of the deceased. He conclud-
ed by moving that the members of the
beard attend the funeral in body and
that the board adjourn out of respect
to the memory Of Mr.. Wise 1t was so
ordered.
The board will meet again at 10
O'Clock this morning.

A Boston dispatch of recent date
says: One of the largest corners on
wool ever attempted in the United
States exists at present in this city in
anticipation of the restoration Of the
tariff on wool. a syndicate was re-
Gently formed il this city to buy all
the wool offered in European markets
in anticipation of duty of 10 per cent.
being put on wool by congress at the
extra session and the increased receipts
are thus accounted for. The syndicate
cabled $5,000,000 to London agents. It
is calculated 100000 bales, or 500,OoO,-
900 pounds Of Australian and South
American wool will be brought to this
country by the syndicate within the
time given. This looks very much as
if combine or wooi trust had been
formed, and if it si.cald prove true, a
tariff on wool will not oeneft the pro-
ducer particle, btt will go to swell
the profits of tbos. who compose the
combine to control the price Of wool,
as the Big Four of chicago do the price
of meat.

A step in the right direction. Irri-
CATION schemes, water storage compa-
MES, or anything that tends to provide
homes for the hundreds of thousands
that are homeless, should be fostered,
protected and encouraged. 1t is the
one thing Arizona needs to place her in
the front ranks of the states of the
Union. Storage reservoirs and the re-
clamation of our fertile lands will do
more to make this territory one of the
brightest stars in the galaxy of states,
than any other one thing that could be
mentioned. The possibilities Of Ari-
zona, from an agricultural standpoint,
with her surplus waters husbanded and
distributed over our plains and fertile
valleys, would be of almost incalcula-
bic benefit to the human race. Arizona
properly titled, could furnish. homes
and comfortable living for five mill
ion people. Our legislators, recogniz-
ing these possibilities, have introduced
bill exempting from taxation for a
mum Der Of years sugar beet factories
and water storage enterprises. These
bills should pass and become a law
They will prove to be Of greater benefit
to the people generally, than the build
ing of railroads A rich agricultural
country will promote railroads. Rail
roads do not foster or promote an agri-
cultural country.

Thursday last Mckinley took the

Thursday last Mckinley took the
oath of Office and was inaugurated as
President of the United States with all
the pomp and pageantry of foreign
potentate. This country is running too
much to display and show. We are
firm adherents to old time simplicity
and patriotism. There is certain
amount of consideration, respect and
courtesy due to the man who has been
chosen by the people as the Chief
Executive OF the nation. This should
be accorded him at all times and under
all circumstances, but beyond this it
should not go. 1t must oe remembers
that he is simply man, whom chance
and surrounding environments has
more than once made President. He is
not always chosen on account of his
eminent qualifications for the position.
Availability often has more to Go with
his selection than qualification. Plia.
bility also, is given considerable con-
sideration by the manipulators of ma
tional conventions. Can we rely on him
to do certain things2 is question that
has too often decided who should be
the national standard bearer. We are
speaking of no particular political par
ty. These remarks apply TO both the
old parties--one as much as the other.
Therefore, we are opposed to making a
demi-god of a man who may prove to
be mere tool. If he proves to be a
patriot, and administers the affairs of
the government in the interest of the
whole people, favoring no particular To-
cality or class, none more willing to do
him honor than ourself, whether repub-
lIean or democrat.
