THE HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETES
THEY EXPECT TO BREAK REC
ORDS TOMORROW.
Some of Those Who Will Show Up
in the Field Day Events
at the Park.

The first High School field day of
the year takes place tomorrow after
noon, commencing at o'clock at Ag-
ricultural Park
The track men have been working
hard to make the occasion bristle with
fast records, and there will be oppor-
tunity to make a forecast of what Will
happen when the Sacramento High
school and Woodland High School
measure records on Woodlands cinder
path.
The youngsters are now in the midst
of the tidal wave of enthusiasm over
field and track events that is sweep
ing over the State and will try hard
to capture the laurels from the Wood
land boys and win glory for the Sac
ramento High School,
A. Harvey, the all-round athlete who
captained last years team, is now rum
ming in the sprints in good form. Be
sides, he is putting the shot and doing
the high jump, and bids fair to break
all previous local records. especially in
the high jump.
| Harvey was a new man in that event
last year, but the way he took to it,
for a beginner, showed that he would
be a "phenom" before he left school.
AT the last field day he went feet five
| inches, although the record only read
five feet. He may also come danger
ously near the record in the 100 yards
dash, although he is not in quite as
good form as last year, when he ran
/ in 10 1-5 seconds, which, by the way,
! is the coast record for that event, as
we'll as the interscholastic record Of the
: United States.
Gould, this years Captain, is also
making fast time in the short dashes,
and will try the quarter-mile dash. He
shows up we'll in the high jump, is
doing remarkably good work in the
broad jump, and will undoubtedly car
ry off honOrs in the pole vault.
Reed, Our Reed the California
Hercules, will do many things to both
shot-put and hammer-throw records.
He presents an almost perfect picture
of physical development and of health
AS pink as the interior of a well-boiled
salmon, his skin swells round and
smooth over the vibrating muscles OF
his arms, shoulders and legs. His
eyes glow like those of contented
child's from beneath his mob of au-
burn hair, and his cheeks become as
carmlne With the mighty eXertlon &c
which he subjects sturdy frame while
! engaged in his work. He will also
enter in the one-nile run.
| Murphy is a strong runner in the
mile dash, and should carry off that
event. which will be made in good
time Murphy is a new man, anc
promises much in the future.
! The school has a good man for the
halfmile in Cotton, who is also a new
conner.
Theil will probably carry everything
! before him in the bicycle races, anc
he should come to the front as a new
record-maker in the next few years.
The students hope that everybody
will have caught the fever by Sat
urday, and turn out to see what KIND
of a showing they will make. To helr
along the enthusiasm, no admission fee
will be charged.

DANGEROUS INCREASE OF

BY the Senate bill proposing to en-
large the powers of the Interstate Com
merce Commission it is the declared
purpose to invest the commission with
full power to call before it at any time
with showing of cause or without, any
carriers of goods and passengers be-
tween States, or States and Territories,
and fix the maximum of the rates they
may charge for service rendered. The
commission may also fix the minimum
rates when necessary to give effect to
the ideas of the commission relative to
conditions emitting one or more 1ocali-
ties to comparative privileges or adj
vantages which they ought to enjoy.
Also, the commission is to have the
power to establish routes for through
carriage and the rates permissible over

It seems to be now much as it was in
the time Of Lincoln. There was then
|carping, nagging minority, forever snap
ping at his heels in and out of Congress.
To-day there appears, however, to be
more partisanship in the opposition to
the Administration than in the time of
Lincoln. The patriotic spirit manifest
in the opposition ranks smacks sharply
of partisan trick to gain advantage at
the expense of wisdom.

them for through business; to classify
freight and to change the classlhca-
tions from time to time; TO estaphsh
rules and regulations for traffic move
ment. and, finally, to determine what
privileges and facilities the Garner
shall afford. In other words the propo-
sition is to carry the regulative doc
trine to the extent, so far as Interstate
commerce is concerned, of making the
commission absolutely supreme dlcta-
tor. and final and only director OF the
interstate commerce of the country
This proposition leads Milton H. Smith
in the April Forum" to say:
It is difficult to imagine any sort or
traffic regulation or control which these
extensive powers would not embrace
Indeed, the proposition is nothing less
in effect than to make the Interstate
Commerce Commission the traffic man
ager for each of the hundreds of inter-
state railroads in the United States,
and for each mile of its 10000 miles
of railroad.
A complete reversal of the method
also proposed. Instead of the present
plan. whereby the courts enforce the
orders of the commission after a jul
diciaI determination that they are law
full. it is now proposed that all the or
ders of the commission made in the ex-
ercise OF the sweeping powers partially
enumerated above, shall be self-eXecut-
ing, that is, shall take effect simply
by virtue Of the commissions decree,
without consideration by any court;
and, if anybody violates them. penalties
viii be imposed, just as fines are I'M
posed for. violating Acts of Congress.
The only way to obtain any review
of these self-executing orders will be
! for the carrier, within a very limited
time, to take the matter into court;
/ and. except in extraordinary cases,
| even the adoption of this course VIII
| not prevent the orders from being et-
| fective while the judicial review is IN
| progress. The court, in reviewing the
| commissions orders, is not to be allow
ed to take additional evidence, but must
| content itself With the record made up
| by the commissioned not satisfied with
that. the court can obtain additional
| evidence only by allowing the commits
sion to take and. report. it. No pro-
vision at all seems to be. made for any
appeal to the courts for relief by a
person or a locality whose interests
may be injuriously affected by the
commissions executing DEGREES.
In other words, the proposition is to
give the commission the power to reg
ulate, in the most complete and extern
| sive manner imaginable, every detail
of interstate railroad traffic; all such
regulations to. take effect without any
resort to judicial tribunals for their en-
forcement, and, ordinarily, in spite OF
the tendency Of proceedings of review

If there is a sufficient government in
Cuba by the insurrectionists to be

who have been there for years ought
to know it. But the frantic men who

call these men to the witness stand in
the affirmative
The record-union. [volume] (Sacramento, Calif.) 1891-1903, 1898-04-15

President McKinley's plan is to go
into Cuba as a neutral and as a peace
maker, one strong and ready to COM
mand the bitter warfare there to cease,
people to establish a stable govern
ment of their own choosing. But the
radical war men want the United States
to go in as a war-maker, as an ally
Of the Cubans, as partisan and a foe
to somebody. Which is the wiser, more
dignifed and manly course, and which
would rebound most to the credit OF
this great nation?
The record-union. [volume] (Sacramento, Calif.) 1891-1903, 1898-04-15

Because a few radical legislators are
displeased with the President who
knows what the true meaning of war
is, and because he has the courage to
maintain what he told Congress was the
truth, that there is no such free gov
eminent in Cuba at this time as can be
recognized as a Power, the pack is
shouting in chorus that the Chief Elk
ecutive is weak, vacillating and irreso-
lutte. It would rather appear to the
impartial on-looker that the resolution,
backbone and courage of the President
are the very things most in evidence
just now With the President and an
overwhelming majority of the House OF
Representatives in harmony as to the
true policy to be pursued, it would seem
that the part of wisdom is to trust to the
prudence, loyalty and courage of the
Executive uDon whom the representa-
tives of the people are not afraid to i'm
pose the weighty responsibility.
The record-union. [volume] (Sacramento, Calif.) 1891-1903, 1898-04-15

Who is it who declares at this hour
that President Mckinley cannot be
trusted to do his duty, if the settlement
Of the Cuban question is committed to
him as the House resolutions propose
with the advice and direction Of that
body that there should be immediate
intervention to pacify Cuba and estab-
lish therein stable government of and
by the people? Those who are so dis
trustful of the loyalty Of the President to
his country and the policy outlined in his
message, would doubt their mothers and
refuse to credit their own senses. When
judgment is impeded by the hot blood
of passion there is no value in reasoning.
