In the meantime young Mr.. Works and

NEWSPAPER CLAIMS TO

CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA-
MENTO, Feb. 1.-THE Assembly Commit
tee on Ways and Means and the Senate
Committee on Finance met in joint ses-
sion tonight to consider the grist of
newspaper claims that has come in for
the publishing of the constitutional
amendments at the last election. Since
Governor Gage repudiated the contracts
that were entered into in good faith by
Governor Budd each day in both houses
has seen a flood of claims come in for
enactment and they have all been re-
ferred TO the committees mentioned.
Tonight the committee decided to seq
regate the claims authorized by Cover

and give them first consideration. 1t fur

tent whether they were authorized or not.
In reply to this rather remarkable and

passed by bills that were formerly behind
them Mr.. Caminetti's questions were all
we'll pointed and after a good bit of non
convincing debate Dibble admitted there
was a mistake somewhere and said it
would be rectified by the Committee on
Rules.
AS on the other days of this week, the
work on the files consumed the day,
though there was little accomplished. Ana
other big bunch of bills was introduced,
and among them a lot of newspaper
claims for publishing constitutional
amendments.

CALL HEADQUARTERS SAC
RAMENTO, Feb. 1.-THE old at
tack on the tenure of office of the
schoolteachers of San Francisco IS
again being made. but the teachers
have discovered the deal and they
are already actively working to cir
cumvent the schemers.
The joker was discovered this af-
ternoon, and on the late train from
San Francisco G. II. Murphy, chair
man of the teachers executive COM
mittee, and w. D. Kingsbury, a
member of the same committee,
came to Sacramento, to be on the
ground in defense of their COLI
leagues. The bug was found in AS
sembly bill 500, which was submitted
as substitute to Assembly bill 295.
In the same form as 295, the bill was.
brought before the Senate, and there
it was amended so as to read like
the substitute, which contained the
Joker. AS amended, this bill passed
the Senate as Senate bill Sc.
The bill sets forth new system
of governing the schools, particu-
larly referring to the duties of
boards of trustees and boards of ed
ucation and their powers. In refer
ring to the method in which they
shall appoint teachers the original
bill had this provision: Boards of
trustees shall employ teachers. ex-

that when General Barnes goes to san
Francisco tomorrow he. will not return
to Sacramento, but will stay away and
leave his eleven supporters IN the air
Such a statement was made to- Assem-
blyman knights to-day. There is. not
a:particle Of truth, on which to base
such an assertion. General Barnes will
return from. San Francisco Sunday
FeVening and will stay in this Senatorial
contest until the finish. His chances of
SUCCESS were never as bright as they
are, to-day. Many of the ablest poll
ticians Of the State regard him as the
logical candidate whose election can be
ACCOMPLISHED without disrupting the
Republican party.
The fact. is accepted by the best
judges that Burns cannot get caucus,
and without a caucus cannot win. The
determination of the Grant men to re-
main firm. and inimovable as long as
Burns is. a candidate grows stronger
every. hour. Burns could not be elected
if all. the Bulla men should enter the

MEN believe they are in a position to
save the State from lasting disgrace by
standing between Dan Burns and the
United States Senate. The supporters
of Grant are commended for this exhi-
bition OF loyalty to California.
Herrin's Independent agents, who
have been here this week, will probably
file their reports tomorrow at the same
time that Dan files his weekly sum-
mary of operations at the Legislature.
In view OF the capture of the Pasadena

an extension of time for Burns to show

has some followers of his own that can
not be controlled by Herrin, while 9TH
ers who are supporting the colonel
can be handled by the corporation. The
agreement as understood is to the eff
feet that the Southern Pacific will hold
the corporation men in line for another
week and if at the expiration of that
time the colonel cannot show win

men will be released to go where they
please.

NEW WAY OF OPERATING
THE PRINTING OFFICE

CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA-
MENTO, Feb. Hutchinson introduced
bill in the Senate to-day which will
work many important changes in the
State Printing Office should it become a
law. The principal point in the measure
is that instead of the Printing Office
drawing its allowance from the State and
distributing it's work without check, each
department must make its own estimate
for printing, which will be allowed in its
appropriation, and work done at the office
will be charged up to the account of the
department ordering the work
The State Printer shall determine the
charge to be made for all printing, ruling
ard binding, the price to be sufficient to
cover ali costs of material and labor, but
not taking into account the plant He
must render bills to each officer or insti-
tuition ordering work done, the bills to be
passed through the Board of Examiners
and paid out of the appropriation of that
officer or institution.

In the substitute bill and in the

system has upheld for so long and

the. dismissal of 1900 teachers each
year. for it will amount to that if
they come Up for reelection.
The San Francisco teachers are
much exercised over the attempt to

and meetings are being arranged for
to discus the matter and to find
means ia prevent the passage of the
obnoxiols bill.

MENTO, Feb. 17.-Senate bill 3S6 is prac-
tically dead, and it only awaits the time
wheE 1t will be reached on the file, then
it will be buried Senator Cutter, who in
troduced it, will withdraw his measure,
and that will end the matter.
The bill provided for the changing, of the
county line between Solano and Yolo
counties. giving to Yolo 1900 900 worth of
Solano territory.
The measure was bitterly opposed by
Senator Luchsinger. who from the first
had devoted a great deal of time to the
case, and his victory before the committee
which reported adversely upon the bill
won for him the congratulations Of the
Solano delegation.
