The father, it is said, usually stayed at

mother do the tie cutting and when the
payments for the tie contracts were made
by the railroad company pocketed the
money and spent 1t upon himself.
The neighbors say the family has gone

The weather to-day has been as fine

street many handsome women, but If
permitted to pass judgment in a matter
so delicate, would say that the Sacra-
mento beauty is at her best in summer
togs, such as she employed during the
conventions to add joy to life.
For all the interest in the Senatorial
fight, it progresses quietly. There are
no seductive bottles in the various
headquarters, as are to be seen in such
wild and wanton commemorative as
in sight. Instead, there is a handshake
for the wayfarer. When General Barnes
went so far as to place a box of cigars
on his table he was accused of treason.
This evening there arrived a multi
tude of statesmen. diplomats and emf
nences from San Francisco. They came
to see that Gage shall be properly in
augurated, so that California and Nose
Gunst may continue in business at the
old stand.
At a late hour tonight there seems
to be ground for changing the views ex-
pressed above as to the candidates for
the Senate. 1t is certain that Burns has
not the strength he claims or his fol-
lowers are ashamed to confess, while

and Shaen to the lobby of the Legisla-
ture. The Call has straight information
that they are here to defeat proposed
legislation to regulate the telephone bust
ness and in this particular mission the
are the agents of the Sunset and Pacific
Telephone companies. The information
is published by The Call to put the MEM
bers of the Legislature on so that the
progress of bills providing for the reg
ulation of telephone companies may be
closely watched.
Shaen and Steppacher cannot be dis
played as the highest products of pure
politics. but they are good enough to
serve Uncle Sam in subordinate places.
The point is advanced that they ought
to be at their respective places of duty,
salary.
Telephone companies perform public
service in the same sense that railroad
and telegraph companies are supposed to
serve the people. AS the telephone corpor-
atoms act under franchises and enjoy
public privileges they are subject to egis-
lative restrictions and it is the duty of
the Legislature to provide proper regu-
lations for the control of the service.
There is no indication that members of
the Legislature have banded together to
cinch the corporations or impose upon
them onerous restraints. There is an in
creasng sentiment however, throughout
California in favor of regulating the cor
poration, especially in regard to the dis
closure of messages. The companies also
enjoy great public privileges which have
enabled them to acquire vast sums of,
money and valuable properties That; the
companies should be compelled to con-
tribute q Just share of taxes cannot be

their advantage in the long run to be-

DEPRESSION EXISTS
IN THE BURNS CAMP

CALL HEADQUARTERS. SACRA-
MENTO, Jan. 3.-The~ Federal place hold
ers. who ought to be at their respective
desks in San Francisco, are here in Sacra-
mento. boasting that the State patronage
will be distributed by Governor Gage to
promote the election of Dan Burns to the
United States Senate. To-day Mr.. Gage
made the statement to one Senatorial can
didate that the State patronage should
not be used to assist any aspirant in the
contest. There is reason to believe that
Burns during the past twenty-four hours
has renewed his pull on Gage to further
draw him into his fight, and to extort
from the Governor a promise that certain
appointments should be made. 1t Is said
that Gage firmly refused to go in deeper,
asserting that he had gone far enough.
The promise so eagerly sought to help the
touts was not obtained.
Something happened last night to cause
extreme depression in the Burns camp
Dan was greatly detected this morning
after a sleepless night and repeated fail.
ures to eXtort from Gage the promise Of
cisco may have reached the "coloneps"
quarters. for the gloom was on all after
noon. Down in the barroom Of the hotel
the touts who were yesterday claiming
thirty-five votes for Burns on first ballot
were making estimates of twenty-five.
Another reason assigned for the depres-
sion was the receipt of intelligence from
San Francisco that quite number OF in
fuential business men. who have the well
fare of the State at heart. were engaged
in quiet movement to induce G. P. Hunt
ington to instruct Herrn to pull down
Burns. The knowledge that L. s. Grant
and James Brown took a flying trip to
San Francisco yesterday and returned to-
day confident and aggressive. produced
extreme depression among the followers
of the ex-Secretary of State. Recalling the
manner by which the railroad once threw
down De Young after he had been bal
loted for the touts began to swear that
no QOlIl6 al will
anybody.
The first ballot for Senator will be taken
next Tuesday and the candidates are nov,
casting about for good speakers for noms-
nation talk. In the Assembly Burns will
be placed in nomination by either Judge
Dibble or Grove Johnson. Dibble would
like to vote for his old and able friend,
General Barnes. but in doing this he
might follow the dictates Of his con-
science and so break a resolution formed
many years ago that he would never al
low his conscience to become tyrant
While Dibbles vote is for Burns, his
heart is true to Barnes.

BAKERS NEMESIS.
The Attorney of Voting Machine Job
to Be Called to Account.

CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA-
MENTO, Jan. 3.-George w. Baker. the
attorney, who has lately jumped into no.
toriety through his connection with the
voting machine job which it was al
legged was to be pushed through this ses-
sion of the Legislature, is to be called
to account for his charges against mem
bers of the last Assembly and Senate by
an investigation committee made up of
members of the Senate.
To the promoters of the voting machine
deal Baker claimed to have manipulated
Assembly bill 273 through the Legisla-
ture of 1887 and represented that he had
found no trouble in buying up all of the
votes he needed on a graduated scale of
prices ranging from $3.50 to $500.
Shortly after noon tomorrow there will
be a caucus of the Senate for the purpose
of forming an investigating committee,
before which Eaker will be Immediately
summoned. Tie hold-over Senators are
the leaders in the movement and they are
determined to- force Baker to an admis-
sion of falsehood or to divulging the
names of the legislators whom he had so
little trouble, and expense in buying.

Oakland Last night elected the fact that
he was not expected home until to-day.

urer nor would he draw warrants for the

still had kept on the Republicans in

would show that member of Controller

A CLASH IMMINENT
BETWEEN DEPARTMENTS

impending clash between the legislative
and executive departments may come be-
fore Governor Gage can be inaugurated
The story now told in whispers relates
to the State Printing Office
The other night Republican Assembly
man in caucus proposed that the first
bill of the session should be a measure to
appropriate $4,000 for printing, and thus
open simultaneously the State Printing
Office and the State treasury. Grove L.
Johnson stood for the big allowance of
S275 ,000 while Henry c. Dibble insisted
that 100000 would be a sufficient sum with
which to begin operations. Dibble gained
his point in caucus, and according to the
plans bill to appropriate 500 900 was in
troduced 1t has already passed into the
history of the session as A. 3. No. l.
To-day Grove Johnson explained that
amendments to the bill We're necessary.
One amendment reduced the allowance
from 800, 900 to $50 900. The story is going
around tonight that several Senators
sounded Governor Gage to ascertain his
views regarding the proposed appropria-
tion. To what extent they were enlight-
ened is not told, but they got the infer
ence somehow the figure was too high for
Gage. The sounding Senators then took
it upon themselves to advise the Assembly
leaders With the suggestion that the SEN
ate would not stand for a larger amount
than $4,000. The Assemblymen to whom
the advice was given fired up in anger and
wanted to know who in Halifax was run

remarked tonight: IT wonder If the exec
utive proposes to run the Legislative de-
partments as well as the Governors of
