ALWAYS keeping watchful eye over
the interests of the people in matters of
legislation Senator Stokes is especially
vigilant when the states school system is
involved, and 1t Is an especial pleasure
for him to promote and further any plan
whereby the cause of education may be
benefited. His latest idea is to divert
portion of the surplus in the treasury to
the School Fund, and it is to be hoped he
may successfully carry his plan into eff
feet. We have long contended that money
now going into the general fund of the
state should be used for school purposes
The five per cent. collateral inheritance
tax might be placed to the credit of edu-
cation and do an immense amount of good.
Senator Stokes thinks that portion of
the large sums coming from the tax on
miscellaneous corporations can easily be
spared to the shool fund. There is no
better channel for surplus cash.
WHILE some localities are clamoring for
the granting of privileges to trolley com
panies regardless of pecuniary considera-
ton and practically without restriction,
others are exercising proper care in vot-
ing away the rights of the people. The
Camden county Board of Freeholders, at
its last meeting, discussed the question of
allowing trolley company the right to
lay its rails over bridge. There was no
disposition whatever to give the franchise
away on the fiimsy plea that the people
demanded the improvement, or that the
value of property along the line of the
road would be doubled. But the Board
looked at the matter in business manner,
and passed resolution requiring the
trolley company to pay one-fourth of the
cost of construction of the bridge, with
the further stipulation that one-half of
the future maintenance of the structure
must be borne by the railway. This res
olution was passed before the trolley rails
were laid.

CAR FENDER BILL
GOES THROUGH
Upon Reconsideration the Senate
Passes the Measure.

CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA-
MENTO, Feb. 7.-Senator Braunhart got
his car fender bill through the Senate to-
day, although 1t had once been beaten
1t was up for reconsideration yesterday,
but Braunhart was afraid he had not
votes enough, and in spite of efforts to
force a vote at once he had the recon
sideration postponed until to-day He
brought 1t up again this morning and it's
consideration was responsible for an
hours oratory.
Senator Leavitt rose to throw the first
stone The bill was indefinite and of no
practical use, he said, and he saw no rea-
son for incumbering the statutes with any
such proposition. He declared that fend-
ers and brakes on street cars were mat
ters for local legislation. and he did not
want to mix In municipal affairs from the
capital of the State.
Senator Simpson thought it was purely
a matter for local legislation, and said
so for ten minutes; but Senator Smith be-
lieved that as street cars were RAPIDLY
stretching out from the cities into the
country, perhaps it would be we'll to
take the matter of tenders and safety de-
vices out of the hands of possible venal
Boards of Supervisors and place it within
the jurisdiction of the State.
Then Senator Shortridge drew his knife
He thought such legislation was not prop
er for Senator'S to daily with. He thought
the Senate should beware of all such bills
and all such legislation. He wanted cor

with his views on the leading questions
of the day. Judge Clough says that the
resolution was introduced to-day on his
own motion, and that he will present
the same subject to the convention to-
morrow. PGhaps an evening session
will be called and candidates invited to
address the legislators. 1t is acknowl-
edged that in the field of oratory Gen
eral Barnes would have an advantage
over his competitors, but it is also con-
ceded that Senator Bulla is fluent and
able speaker Irving M. Scott is forci-
BILE and earnest talker. 1t is called to
mind that u. S. Grant made an elo-
quent speech at the great San Diego
demonstration during the late guberna
torial campaign. If the emergency de-
manded another speech he could prob
ably line up with other aspirants and
make a good showing. On the subject
Of calling a caucus Colonel Burns might
wax eloquent. The sunburst of oratory
in the convention yesterday, when
Shortridge electrified the audience is
supposed to be a sample of Dams stock.
No one can tell now when the agitation
for a parade Of the orators will end.
The town may be filled with kilograms
before tomorrow night urging the Leg
islature to invite the candidates to ex-
press their sentiments and break the
deadlock by the transmitting process.

porations to pay dividend now and then
and anyway he set the Shortridge seal OF
disapproval on the bill and every one like
1t, and any one who would introduce 1t
or vote for it or speak or support it or be
in any way connected with 1t. Senator Da-
Wis objected to such talk and so did
Braunhart, who said he would. reply to
Mr.. Shortridge as a question of personal
privilege afterward.

TO HELP BOHEMIA
HOLD ITS REVELS

CALL HEADQUARTERS. SACRA-
MENTO, Feb. IA bit of legislation for
the Bohemian Club of San Francisco, and
for similar organizations, passed the
Senate this morning in the shape OF a
bill by Ashe to amend the Civil Code SO
as to allow benevolent corporations to
hold timber land to the extent Of 100
acres.
Section 500 of the Civil, Code outlines the
limitations of benevolent corporations,
among them being a clause prohibiting
such organizations from holding any land
except such as is necessary for their use.
The Bohemian Club has for years been
in the habit of seeking the depths of the
forest, there to hold revels and bury care.
The first forest meeting was held near
Cazadero, but after year or so they had
to move near Guerneville. Then the lum-
bermen, minding neither revel nor care,
came with their axes. The club could not
buy under the law, but could lease; the
lumbermen would not lease. but would
sell, and so the club had to move again.
Senator Ashes bill allows such organiza-
tons as the Bohemian Club to hold Ice
acres of timber land TO be used only for
the purposes of the organization. Should
the bill become a law the club may buy
a forest home as deep in the redwoods
as 1t pleaSeS.

CARTOON MEASURE NOW
WORRIES THE SENATORS

CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA-
MENTO, Feb THE bill for the pro-
lection of unlovely features, young Mr..
Works measure for the suppression of
cartoons, caused something of an argu-
ment before the Judiciary Committee of
the Senate this evening. 1t was earnestly
advocated by Senator Morehouse, who,
next to killing editors, finds most sport in
starving artists. Senator Ashe favored it,
too, because, he said, he wanted to hear
it discussed upon the floor of the Senate.
Senator Curtin, however, would have
made newspaper man had he not turned
his thoughts Senateward He thought
there was no harm in publishing por-
trait of a public man as we'll as man
tendencies were not strong enough to car
ry him further. All the committeeman
were 10th to stop the pictorial end OF the
newspapers, but they felt that legislative
panied by any views of the legislators
and so they haggled over the trade of the
illustrator and just how he should ply 1t.
There was some time spent in trying TO
limit pictures to simple portraits, but
cartoons had their advocates, and after
all it was decided to pass the considera-
ton of the bill for another day.
Code Commissioners Shanahan came In
to plead for Braunhart's bill establishing
an income tax. The bill he wanted passed
provided for tax on incomes ,c mes over $zooU
to , a an net income of $4,000 Then. too, there
was a graduated scale of taxation, but
oueerly enough it was back-action one.
While the man with a $4,000 income was
required to pay tax of l per cent the
man blessed with an income of $4,000 was
twice blessed with a small tax OF one
half of per cent. The bill caused a great
deal of discussion and was finally referred
back to the Senate with the recommends
ton that it do pass.
Senator Luchsinger's bill to provide a
State Board of Charities and Corrections
brought Charles A. Gushing and Osgood
Putnam before the committee to explain
and support. Mr.. Gushing showed the
enormous increase in the appropriation
necessary to support the ever-growing
number of orphans demanding State, AID
and he pointed out the lax system which
allowed so many not entitled to the priv;
ilege to get in under the States financial
wing He pointed out how the board or
charities provided for in the bill would
practically remedy the evils in the sys-
tenn and his bill was recommended for
passage.
Senator Taylor's amendment to the
constitution cutting down the number or
trial Jurors to nine and making less than
unanimous vote sufficient to convict
was referred to the Senate with the rec
ommendation that 1t do not pass.
