northerly winds and clouds moving
from the same point may indicate the
approach of cool, northerly winds,
which would clear the air of clouds

THREE INNOCENTS.
Each Declared His Innocence, But
Juries Will Decide.

Three innocent men charged With
felonies We're arraigned in Judge Hart $

guilty.
They We're Henry Schofield, the ex-
convict who tried to shoot Guard Lewis
at the Folsom Prison; All Fun, the
highbinder who took a shot at Hang

Wilson, charged with grand larceny.
The cases of Wilson and Schofield

A table has been compiled on the
basis of accurate reports of the com
parative values Of pavements for
streets in cities in Europe, with this
result, the best in each case appearing
first in the list:
Public Hygiene-Asphalt, granite,
wood.
Noisel snesS-Wood, asphalt, granite
Safety for Horses (unless where
streets are well cleaned)-Wood, as
phalt, granite.
Cleansing-Asphalt, granite, wood.
rability-Granite, asphalt. wood.
Economy-Granite. wood, asphalt.
Facility for Repairs-Asphalt, wood
granite.
From this showing it will be seen
that asphalt-for which we may say
bituminized rock also-stands first for
hygienic qualities, for ease of cleaning
and for facility Of repairs, and these
are really the requisites for this eli
mate.

The Redlands "CitrOgraph' says
that at times this city is below the food
level of the Sacramento River. SO is
any city when any river overfiows upon
1T and unhappily that happens every
year in some part of the country. But
if the city is thus situated, though it
is safe from overflow, why is it?
Time was when the river ran at highest
waiter far below its banks. 1t is now
shown that the lifted bottom can be
dredged out and the navigable channel
restored TO its former Importance, and
that by doing this the State will be a
distinct gamer and that the work will
greatly benefit the people of the State
by adding 10 taxable values and OPEN
ing up the natural free highway which
has become clogged and it's delta
choked by reason of artificial processes
and Government neglect. The thing to
do is to treat the river scientifically and
permit it to resume its one time condi-
ton of navigability for vessels of large
tonnage and deep draft, and at the
same time serve its natural purpose as
the drainway Of the great Sacramento
Valley.

list of such machines as they prefer,
such as seem to them to be best and
most economic, but We are satisfied that
whatever machine or machines are used
there must be regulations and descrip-
tions and directions for each in the law.
1t is found that Michigan in 1898
adopted Machine A. or any other of
similar construction and principle is per-
mitted to be used in that State. That
Act is a voluminous one, detailing every
step in the use of the machine, or any
of similar construction and principle In
1895 Michigan enlarged permission to
use machines, by adopting Machine B,
and prescribing regulations for its use.
In 1895 Connecticut adopted c and d
machines. and prescribed just how each
should be used, there being two distinct
enactments, one for each machine.
Massachusetts permits the use of c ma
chine and has adopted also the E ma
chine. Special and distinct enactments
have been passed for the operation OF
each machine, as it was found that
general Act could not be made to apply.
Indiana, Nebraska and California
have lately amended their Constitutions
so as to permit of use Of ballot machines,
and in the first two named the same
difficulty has arisen that is met with
here, namely, the inability to enact q
general law that will permit the use
of any or all machines. 1t would seep
that whatever machines are selected
there must be a specific description of
each one and full regulations for the use
of each 1t will never do to permit coun-
ties, cities or election boards to vary in
the use Of the machines according to
their fancies or local legislation. Nor
must the machines once adopted, be
changed or modified except under legis-
lative recognition. They must fill the
bill of the law. In that safety resides.

The State authorized and directed
the pollution Of the waters of the
American River. The State set an in
stitution upon the bank of that stream
and turned all the filth of that place
into the river. In common justice to
riparian owners below the point Of
discharge of the filth the State should
repair its wrong. This it can do by
scientific disposal of the sewage of the
prison at Folsom, and it should there
fore proceed to do it. 1t is not an ap-
peal for charity; it is not an asking of
patronage, but simply the doing of jus
tice. The bill for a disposal plant ought
to pass and become a law. We think
the sense of justice of the members of
the Legislature can be trusted to do
what is right in this matter.
