Of the census. By Meserve's bill the
common method of determining popula-
tion-that of multiplying the vote by
five, is substituted.
Kelsey's A. B. 246. providing for the
establishment and maintenance of sew
er districts adjacent to municipal cor
porations was also passed.
s. ]. R. No. 8, asking Congress to as
sist in the necessary surveys and ap-
preparation. for the irrigation of arid
lands, was adopted, Notwithstanding
that Judge Clough declared it was time
this Legislature stopped interfering
with the business Of Congress. The
national body, he declared, needs none
of our advice and will heed none of
our many resolutions.
SPECIAL ORDERS.
Under this head came up the amend
ments to Americas Normal School bill
No. 245. Conrey moved to reconsider
the vote by which committee amend
ment No. 1 was lost on Friday. On
this motion Conrey spoke at length in
support of the amendment. The bill
restores the methods and powers OF The
governing boards of the State Normal
Schools to the status they held before
the legislation of two years ago, which
changed them materially. But the
amendments Of the committee SO meta
morphosed the bill as to make it prac-
tically imperative and leave things
much as they are. Arnerich. the au-
thor, Valentine and other friends OF the
bill, claim that the changes made by
the Legislature and by Ex-Governor
Budd two years ago have worked badly
and have demoralized the working Of
the schools.
The motion to reconsider the amend
ment was lost, and other committee
amendments voted down. To Vaien-
tine, who had gallantly defended the
bill with Arnerich was entrusted the
drafting Of an amendment agreed by all
parties to be necessary and the bill will
take it's chances another day.
SECOND READINGS.
A string Of election law bills were
given second readings and also Dickin-
sons A. B. Oh, to prevent deception in
the sale of process or renovated butter.

was easier to come down. than to go
Up, and if the committees &ent. to cut
ting the claim there was more likely
to be a decent sum left u they began
with a large one.
G. w. Johnson of San Francisco pre-
scented the case also, and the Chairman
found 1t rather hard to bring him from
sentimental and sorrowful view of the
case to the contemplation of cold facts.
He recited the story Of the death of the
mother, Ida Morrill, Smith, in Deem
Der, 1898, from surgical operation in
an Eastern hospital. The original bill
had borne her name, but in the present
one only the two daughters are mem
toned. He rehearsed, also. the case of
Smith, declaring that the Supreme
Court had said there was not evidence
enough to raise even suspicion
against Smith. except for the testimony
of two accomplices, one OF whom con-
fessed the murder, and, then, because
he was promised seven years imprison-
ment instead of hanging if he turned
States evidence, testified against
Smith. Extracts from Sacramento pa
pers printed at the time of the trial
were read in support of these state
ments. In reply to questions, G. w.
johnson said Smith had died of some
wasting disease and in his belief it was
caused by his confinement in the JAIL
Major Anderson and w. w. Rhoads,
who was County, Clerk at the time, told
the committee that Smith was a.
healthy and vigorous man at the time
of his incarceration, and they believed
his death was the direct result of con-
finement. AsS
Brusie. who was Chairman of Ways
and Means in 80, remembered the BILL
and that it was cut in committee fcom
$4,000 to S3,7OO. The knights of
Pythias were interested in the bill, out
it failed of passage.
Both Brusie and George w. johnson
were questioned by Grove L. as to his
connection with the bin in 1895 and by
both he was assured that he was not
SO connected.
In executive session the committee
decided to report the bill back to the
House without recommendation.
TO QUARANTINE CATTLE.
There were present before the COM
mittee last night, also, Speaker AnGer-
son, Dr. Blemer, Federal Inspector
under the Bureau of Animal Industry
of the Department Of Agriculture, and
ex-senator Cox on behalf of the COM
mittee substitute for Anderson's A. B.
! "a, for the establishments of a Livestock
| Sanitary. Commission for California.
! DR., Bfemer stated plainly that Texas
or splenetic fever existed in certain
portions of the State and that there
was the greatest need for the establish
ment of proper quarantine line SO
| that those portions not infected might
be kept exempt, and also that the Fed
eral quarantine now over the whole
State might be removed so far as
healthy portions were concerned, a
market found for the cattle and the
animals taken across the State line
when desirable for grazing or other
purposes. It was explained that the
fever is communicated by means Of a
| tick which cannot live at an altitude OF
1900 feet. So that al portions above
that are immune as well as many other
parts of the State. Questions We're
asked by the committee and intelli-
gently answered by the advocates of
the bill. %
Several other measures came up and
were considered

An Excellent Combination.
SUCCESSFUL ENTERPRISE BASED
ON MERIT.
Inc Importance of Informing the Public
OF the Nalu of al Article Through
the Leading Newspapers.

The few remedies which have attained
to Worldwide fame, as truly beneficial in
effect and giving satisfaction to millions
of people everywhere, are the products of
the knowledge of the most eminent ply
%sicians, and presented in the form most
acceptable to the human system by the
skill of the worlds greatest chemists: and
one of the most successful examples is
the Syrup of Figs manufactured by the
California Fig Syrup Co. Unlike a host
of limitations and cheap substitutes,
Syrup of Figs is permanently beneficial
lntlts effects, n therefore lives and pro-
notes good health, while inferior prepa-
rations are being cast aside and forgot
ten. In olden times if a remedy gave tenn
porary relief to individuals here and
there, 1t was thought good; but now-a-
days a laxative remedy must give salts
faction to all. If you have never used
Syrup of Figs give it a trial, and you will
be pleased with it, and will recommend
1t to your friends or to any who suffer
from constipation, or from overlooking,
or from colds, headaches, biliousness, or
other Ills resulting from an inactive con-
ditlon of the kidneys, liver and bowels.
In the process of manufacturing the
pleasant family laxative made by the
California Fig Syrup Co., and named
syrup OF Figs, figs are used, as they are
pleasant to the taste: but the medicinal
properties of the remedy are obtained
from an excellent cOmbinatio of plants
known to be incidentally laxative and to
act most beneficially. AS the true and
original remedy, named Syrup of Figs,
is manufactured by the California Fig
Syrup Co. only, a knowledge of tina fact
will assist in avoiding the worthless imi-
tations manufactured by other parties.
The company has selected for years past
the leading publications of the United
States through which to inform the pub
lie of the merits of its remedy. and among
them the Daily Inter fountain is in
cluded. as will be seen by reference to it's
advertising columns.
