You Are Right.

Eds Record Union: While I am
not one of that class who believes in
eternally finding fault with existing
conditions concerning public affairs, nor
do 1 clamor for radical reforms beyond
the reasonable expectations of sensible
citizens, yet 1 feel constrained to sug-
gest that our next State Legislature
should take some steps which would
tend in some degree to keep public SER
wants, whose duties ought to be per-
formed at the State Capital, a little
closer to their post of duty than has
been the case in the past.
1t too frequently happens that citi-
zens from a distance come to the Capt.
tai, where they naturally expect to find
public State officials, wishing to confer
with the heads Of departments on i'm
portant business and are disappointed
by being informed that such officials
are in San Francisco where they make
their headquarters. In fact, there are
some of our State officials whose place
ought to be in the city of Sacramento,
whose presence here is of the rarest oc-
currence and when such occurrences do
happen they are notorious foY brevity
and undue haste to get away again.
It seems also that the business of our
Supreme Court ought to be done at the
Capital instead of being peddled all over
the State like the taking out of patent
medicine literature. The Capital of the
State is the proper place to have State
business transacted, and it is not an
unreasonable demand to insist upon
public servants who seek such positions
to spend the major portion Of their time
at their post of duty, where they can
be found and consulted by those whom
they are elected to serve.
This matter of keeping up offices and
extra attaches in cities other than the
Capital is not only an unnecessary ex-
pense, but it is an inconvenience and
annoyance to those who come to the
Capital to find their chosen servants.
1 trust the people and the press of the
interior will so agitate this matter that
the time will soon come when California
will have a Capital in fact, as we'll as in
simply name, as it has almost gotten
to be. 1 am yours for a Capital de
facto. S. p.

ment necessary to secure the new

ment necessary to secure the new
water supply.
But aside from these considerations,
there is another, rising superior 70
them all-the health Of the people. We
must either deny in toto the universal
demonstrations of science, the testi-
mony Of sanitarians the world over, the
evidence placed before US by the medi-
cal faculty Of the city, and the evidences
Of our own senses, or admit that our
present water supply is chargeable for
the large measure Of sickness which af-
fiicts the city, and the large number
Of deaths from fevers which have of late
been recorded.
1t is a fact demonstrated beyond all
question that those families who reject
river water and use supplies brought in
from the east by private enterprise, are
not afflicted by fevers. That no case Of
typhoid outside the city limits is known
to have developed. That every case
now at the County Hospital comes from
within the city limits
In the face of all these facts whoever
rises up and objects to the inquiry pro-
posed by the Chamber of Commerce is
nothing short of a public enemy. Hon
est intention never fears to face the
truth. The friends of clear water sup
ply from the east side are content to
abide by a fair, full investigation into
the purity of the supply and the
adequacy Of the source. Those ques-
tons settled, they are prepared to meet
the opponents of the proposed system
on economic grounds, and to show that
the new supply will not only be cheaper
to consumers, but that it will be a
means Of augmenting the revenues of
the city, advancing the growth of the
town, and improving every line of legiti
mate business conducted in it, besides
drawing to Sacramento, new and desir
able population, and new and desirable
business.

FOR FREEDOM.
Santa Cruz Sentinel: The revolution
was fought for freedom, the rebellion
was fought for freedom, and the pres
ent fight is fought for freedom The
Americans first fought to make them
selves free, then fought to free the
negroes. and now they are fighting to
free the Cubans. Who knows but
what the Americans may make the
world free? We are the successful con-
testants for freedom, and there is free
dom in the blood of all intelligent men.
TWO MANY WOULD-BE BOSSES.
Los Angeles Express: We have
multitude of soldiers in this land or
freemen but it is to be feared we nave
a larger number of statesmen. Ihere
are not enough offices to go round, ana
few of them are important enough 10
furnish work for the great statesmen
out of a job The eagle eye OF these
great patriots sweeps the horizon ana
pierces to the antiDodes from the curb
stones of the city. The giant brain Of
these Napoleons plant batteries IU'O
miles from the scene of action and
without knowing the strength OF the
enemy or anything about how he is en-
trenched
One of these great warrior statesmen
fumes in his INDIGNATION at the
thought of the Board of Strategy az
Washington. He shrieks at the
thought: "a Strategy Board! Board
of Strategy at Washington" He
thinks Sampson dare not fire gun eX-
cepting as this board sends dispatch
boat and tells him Give them another
round, Admiral" This statesman for
gets that there are 125,0O0 men to COL
lect from this whole broad continent, to
equip and get to the scene of action.
He forgets that transports have to be
obtained, and outfits prepared to send
10000 troops to Manila, 1000 miles
away.
Another citizen who could have given
Wellington, Napoleon and Grant great
many points and then have beaten them
at the game of war, cannot contain his
soul when he thinks of the folly Or
rushing the Seventh Regiment to San
Francisco. 500 miles at great expense,
a week before they will be sent to Ma
Mia, if they are sent at all. He forgets
that other regiments must come from
other parts of the coast, that all must
be examined, QUILTED and got to their
berths on the steamer in eight days.
So it goes. These statesmen would
be lost in the Cabinet They ought to
be the whole Cabinet and then their
genius would be partly utilized

ANOTHER, AND A GOOD IDEA

In San Francisco a league has been
proposed, and will probably be formed,
| to create a fund to be expended dis
| creetly by a body of trustworthy citi-
zens, and under the watch and ward of
the law, in aid of the wives and chill
dren, the aged parents, or any other
! dependents of men who enlist in the
volunteer army.
It is an excellent idea. The men who
go out to fight the battles of their coun-
try ought to have assurance from those
of US who remain behind that we will
care for those dependent upon them
that they may not come to want, lack
shelter, clothing or food, or the COM
mon necessities of decent living. 1t is
about as little as we can do for the
departing soldier. 1t will stimulate en-
Istment, set free many a man willing
to go to the front at the call of his
country, who is tied now by relations,
to sever which means bitter punishment
for the innocent.
To create such a league, collect and
invest the funds so as to add to the
principal is at once benevolent, patri-
otto, brotherly and godlike. Somebody
is to be killed; somebody will die in
hospitals; somebody is to be manned
and incapacitated for life in this war
These somebodies will be many hun
dreds. OF that we may rest assured.
War is no pleasuring outing. Even if
the volunteer returns, he might find
otherwise, that his children, his wife,
his aged parents, his dependent sister,
deprived of his support, had suffered
and gone down in misery and wretch
edness, while he was fighting the bat
ties of his country.
We have started in to war for hui
mainly, let it begin at home. and let
not the innocent ones suffer that the
wretched of other lands may be reliev-
ed. By all means let the new league
take form in every city. Of course the
intention is not to support the depend
in luxury, nor to pauperize them by
charity, nor humiliate them by aims
But it is the idea to assure the volun-
teer that no distress shall overtake his
loved ones, and that they shall not be-
cause of the absence of their natural
protector be thrust upon the cold char
ity of the world or be reduced to the
necessity Of seeking shelter in public
institutions as paupers. That his chill
dren shall not lack for education and
the care that will assure them being
brought up to good citizenship. The
soldier who goes out feeling that his
fellow citizens whom he is serving in
arms are watching over his loved ones,
will have his arm newly nerved, his
heart fired more loftily with ardor and
courage for the cause Of his home land.

FOR CONGRESS-, PAGE NORRIS.
From the Sank Center Herald.
The congressional convention
called to meet in Anoka on June
LIST, will, of course, nominate Hon.
Page Morris to succeed himself as
a member of congress from this
district. There is every reason
why it should. He is a hardwork~
ing, efficient and devoted repre-
sentative. He has firmly en-.
trenched himself IN the good will
Of his colleagues. He has devoted
a vast amount of time in behalf of
his old soldier constituents, and no
appeal made to HIM to assist bust.
ness through the pension depart
ment has been neglected. He has
given his time freely to all
demands or requests.
He has succeeded in doing what
has been fought for during the
past ten years-the opening of the
Mile Laos Indian reservation to
settlers, tract covering more
than a million acres. Mr.. Morris
got a joint resolution through the
house, and Senator Nelson i'm
mediately took it up in the senate,
and had it passed.
In all the great measures involv.
ing legislature of a national
character, our representative has
ever been identified with his party.
Page Morris is able, patriotic,
Industrious, clear headed and
Observation-Disclosures which ap.
peal with irresistible force to the
right-minded. He will be re-
nominated by reclamation and
reelected by an increased majority.
