X PERSONAL MATTER.
SACRAMENTO. Jan. 7-County Clerk
| Curry of San Francisco is here watchica-
| the operations of the lawmakers. He is
| not very communicative regarding this
object of his visit, but it is generally un-
| derstood that some legislation relative
to the police courts of San Francisco Is
| expected. District Attorney Barnes is
of the opinion that the prosecuting at
| torneys should be appointed from his
| office, and Curry thinks that the clerks
should be- selected from his Office as are
the clerks of the superior court. This is
| not the only interest which the county
| clerk has in Sacramento. Since election
| he has declared that, according to the
county government act ne is registrar
| of San Francisco. He has never sought
| to establish that claim. but it is on the
cards that the legislature may be asked
| to repeal section of the political code
which will accomplish the work quite
aus well as the courts.
| NOT TN HIS SEAT.

man Landsborough was not In his seat

! were brought against him. He gave
himself UP to Sheriff Frank T. Johnson
