In the attached bank is $4,000 of

far enough for an intelligent OBJ

is an exceptionally strong body,

are Rich, Barnum, Ballentine of

The House has some very able

by no means the only strong men
in either body, bnt they are in the
front ranks and are among it's
most eloquent and useful members.

The land trouble on Thomas Fork has
been satisfactory settled.
The record-union., 1897-03-20
San Francisco's Seifishness.

Eds. Record Union: It has become
an open secret that not only the San
Francisco papers, but the Board OF
Supervisors and Mayor of that city are
bringing all the pressure to bear that
they can on Governor Budd to induce
him to refuse to sign the bills relating
to the Highway Commission ana the
system of State roads, on the ground
that. as San Francisco has no roads TO
build, she should not be forced TO pay
taxes in order that the rest of the state
may be benefited.
Laying aside the fact that whatever
benefits the State benefits San FRAN
cisco in the end let us look at the mat
ter from another point of view. TWO
years ago San Francisco asked the legls-
lators of the State to appropriate S-oo,
600 for the building of affiliated colleges
in that city, instead of Berkeley, where
the State University is, and where they
ought OF be built The State Legisla-
ture appropriated the amount, and /
believe half Of it was paid, but the other
half lapsed. through certain clrcum-
stances and has been reapproprlated
this session at San Francisco's request.
San Francisco has also asked the
State to pay taxes for the construction
of a public building there and has at
every Legislature asked for approprla-
lions for various objects. 1t is all right
when she asks for anything, but if the
interior wants anything San Francisco
The record-union., 1897-03-20

objects She is afraid she will not get
it all and simply looks on the rest of the
State as something that should work
and pay taxes for her benefit.
Suppose the rest Of the State should
adopt her og-in-the-manger tactics
and oppose everything she asks for, how
would she like it? How would she like
tiff she is able through pressure to
defeat these bills-to have associations
formed in the interior counties, that are
asking for good roads on which to get
their produce to market, and system
of highways that will enable them
to communicate with the other parts OF
the State the members of which bound
themselves to fight and pledge their rep
resentatives to fight in future any re-
quests that San Francisco should make
for appropriations? and if they should
also say, these same associations, that
they would neither visit San Francisco
or in any way contribute to the support
of her merchants and would only buy
goods of those who procured their stock
in other cities? How would that suit
San Francisco?
What a prosperous community she
would become if cut off from traffic with
the rest of the State and her citizens al
lowed to live off each other, while Los
Angeles or Portland was built uD at her
expense by the citizens of the interior.
When will she learn that she is simply
a metropolis because of the State she is
situated in, and that the rest of the
State is in nowise obliged to give her
everything she asks and receive nothing
in return? When will she learn that she
is part of a commonwealth in which the
interests of all are mutual and that
what helps one helps all?
It is said also that the various Boards
of Supervisors, who are loath to give up
their grasp on and control OF the road
funds, are telegraphing to the Governor
asking him TO veto the bill SO that the
same old system of mismanagementa and
waste and the same bad roads that have
been maintained for the last forty years
will still obtain. After starting to go
ahead are we to fall back in the same old
rut again? PRO BONO PUBLICO.
