of the Assembly.
Then filed in Mayor Land, with the
officials Of the city Of Sacramento, the

Chairman Of the Republican State Cen
trail Committee. and other well-known
and notable people.
Ex-Lieutenant Governor Jeter called
the joint convention to order; the rolls
and then all awaited the Gubernatorial
party.
A burst of music heralded their APP
proach, and at the bar of the House
appeared two black-coated gentlemen,
escorted and surrounded by the Gov
ernor's staff, whose gold lace and but
tons and plumed hats gave a touch Of
brightness to the simplicity and plain
ness of an American official party. Ad-
vancing slowly up the broad aisle, the
two Governors mounted the steps to
the Speakers desk, and the blessing of
God was invoked by Rev. A. ]. Sturte-
want Chaplain of the Senate.
The oath of Office was administered
to Governor Gage by Associate Justice
Henshaw, and the dignity and solem-
nifty of the moment as the two men
stood before the people and beneath the
folds of their country's flag were mem
orable.
Then the band in the corridor burst
forth with Hail to the Chief" and
the heavy guns outside fired a salute.
A hush of expectation fell upon the
great crowd, and the retiring Gov
ernor, James H. Budd, arose in his
place. But if the members of the two
| houses and the multitude expected any
| extended remarks from him they were
disappointed. People settled as COM
| fortably as possible into their places,
but the brevity Of the Governors fare
well address caught many before they
| had composed themselves to hear.
| Governor Budd said that the act of
| turning over his office to his successor
| was one of the pleasantest incidents Of
| his administration. In vacating the Of
| flee he felt no regrets. He spoke kindly
of his successor, and in closing said:
/ IT predict for him an honorable and
able administration" and, turning to
| the Governor, concluded: Governor
Gage, I introduce you to the people,"
Governor Gage was in good voice,
and though he read his inaugural adj
dress he held the vast crowd in the
grasp of his oratory to the last word.
The address (Which appears in an
other column) was punctuated with
applause, and that the effect produced
upon the people was favorable was ev
idenced by the reiterated comment at
it's close: "a strong paper; a strong
| paper"
Then, after the usual proceedings, on
motion of Assemblyman Valentine, the
joint session of the Legislature adj
! journed without date, and the inaug-
| ural ceremonies were over

A RICH AND UNcTUoUs BILL.

The "Record-Jnicn" years ago urged
the establishment of a State constab-
ulary force of five and clearly pointed
out the economy and wisdom OF such
a measure OF government, since under
the existing system there is such lack
of method and harmony between county
peace officers and such limitations
upon them as to creation of expense in
pursuit Of criminals, that crime is re-
ally favored.
But here is e. bill before the Legisla-
ture Of q wholly different character,
calling for the establishment of corps
of three State Detectives" salaried at
81, 400 each and paid all their expenses
besides. incurred in pursuit of their
duty.
They are to be under the control and
direction Of the Governor, and are to be
sent to render aid to county peace Off
GERS. But it is provided that no one
shall be appointed to such Office OF
State Detective, except he has served as
Sheriff Of sone county for twenty years
continuously Clearly then the bill Is
gotten I'D especially for somebody.
How many Sherifs in the State have
served their counties continuously as
such Sheriffs for twenty years? What
guarantee have we that in case Of va
cancy by death or resignation of any
one of these detectives, another can be
found who has been twenty years a
Sheriff continuously? Besides it is
simply silly to assume that twenty years
of service as a Sheriff necessarily quail
if1es a mar fer detective work 1t
cannot with any sort of sanity be insist
ed that because q man has been a
Sheriff for twenty consecutive years,
he is therefore better qualified than
men by nature and experience adapted
to the peculiar life Of a detective, who
may never have enjoyed the lofty dis
tinction of being Sheriff Of county
of the glorious State of California.
If for a moment 1t is admitted, how
ever, tibet a twenty-year Sheriff is
thereby qualified, it may be that some
other man who is familiar with the
ways Of criminals. and whose expert
ence has extended over period Of only
nineteen years eleven months and
tweHty-nine days, might be q far bet
ter man to employ for the State ser
vice. 1t may be that a man who has
been Sheriff but two years or no years,
is eminently filter to be a State De-
tective than one who has served twen-
ty years. Indeed-but then, the bill
3s too absurd and manifestly a per-
tsonal bill to receive further considera-
ton

fense of which Byron's "Giour' won
from General jackson pardon for "a
thousand crimes, along the Mexican
border to Yuma, the Sunset Limited
has a storied route. 1t is in sight Of
monuments inscribed to the memory
of heroic Americans and in hearing of
engines across the border, whistling
away to Mexican cities, over battle
fields on which It's right of way was
won. It follows the trail trod by
Spanish adventures and churchmen
800 years ago, and it's stations at rising
towns and cities are on their camping
grounds In striking contrast with
its artistic modern equipment and airy
stations is the somber aspect and mas
sive sublimity of bad taste that have
clung to old mission churches through
the mutations of centuries.
As it curves north from Yuma,
through the orange groves and lovely
cities of Southern California, few old
mission churches are the only me-
MORALS of Spanish and Mexican DOM
nations. From Los Angeles to the
Tehachaipies and down through a
labyrinth of loups to the San Joaquin
Valley. it is a creative and engineering
marvel, even of the railroad era. Thence
through the San Joaquin Valley to San
Francisco it's course is marked by the
markets it has created and the cities
it has built.
At this focus Of the Southern Pacific
System, the Shasta route, with relay
of flyers, forms a continuous line on
through the Sacramento Valley. up
through the tunnels and along cloud
paths over the Shasta and Siskiyou
Mountains, to where, doubling on itself.
1t goes circling down into Rogue River
Valley Thence through the river-girt
and bound valleys of Oregon
to peerless Portland, it passes through
country only progressive and pictur-
esque as is its commercial emporium.
Such in mere outline is the incompara-
BILE thoroughfare of trade and travel,
which spans the Pacific empire. From
the once mysterious vastness of that
empire far taper has faded into
brighter morning and a more gorgeous
sunset than American statesman or
president Frenchman ever foretold.

You have shown yourself a level-head-

the State expect of you q clean, pusi-

ring of a man who knows what he IL

the best thought of the State. We
expect that you will be Governor your

will run your administration; and that
expectation is based on good premises.
We expect your appointments will be
based on fitness as well as party SER
vice; that you will remember your
friends, but not sacrifice the public SER

We believe you to be brave, honest and
capable and we expect you to make a
record in the next four years that will
make all California proud of you.

VALUE AND STAMP.

dollar passes for a full dollar because
it Is redeemable in gold" This is an
error. The silver dollar is not. by law,
redeemable' in gold, and has never been
redeemable in gold 1t is the declared
purpose of our Government to maintain
the silver dollar, and every other kind
of dollar, at parity with gold. Ad-
herence to this policy has kept the
silver dollar at an exchangeable value

pire decorated with the royal lilies OF
France and golden trophies won from
Mexico.
Around and along the Mexican and
Pacific border of that empire from the
Queen City of the south to- where regal
Portland rounds her glittering domes
in the northern sky, runs the superb
through line, formed by the connection
at San Francisco of the Sunset and
Shasta Roads. 1t is the longest con-
tinuous line, having the same owner
ship and management, on the conti-
nent. Competing at both ends with
rail, river and ocean transportation, it
has along its route through three
States and two Territories, a greater
variety and wealth of exchangeable
products than any road on earth. Be
Ing the base line from the southeast
to northwest of the matchless South
ern Pacific system, it intersects all the
overland roads in its course While
thus competing with all corners at ccm-
mon points of commerce and trade for
freight, they are it's feeders, and for
passengers and excursion parties pro-

That in its course through diversified
zones of climate and production this
great thoroughfare of trade and travel
| must have unique and unrivaled at
| fractions may be assumed as granted.
| Because the natural presumption is
supported by vast array of tourists
and eye-Witnesses, an attempted de-

THE TROUBLE IN SAMOA.

Years ago we had trouble with the
German officials in Samoa They
were then as now arrogant and usurp-
ing. When we were on the very edge
of war truce was patched up by
agreeing upon tripartite form of pro-
tectorate over the islands, and a sort
of King maker in the robes of a Chief
Justice, selected. by the Swedish King,
was set up.
When King Malietoa died few
weeks ago German greed again mani
Tested itself and an attempt was made
TO ignore the British and American
officials in the adjustment of affairs to
the ambitions of rival claimants of the
throne. Mataafa was in the earlier
time in revolt against Malietoa whom
the Germans kidnapped, it will be re-
meunbered, and deported to a distant
island where he remained, until under
the tripartite agreement he was re-
stored, Mataafa whipped and peace es-
tablished
1t looks as if we were to have this
trouble all over again. The Munic-
ipal Council of Apia, the capital of the
Samoan group. is presided over by a
Gepnan- He has, it is reported, been
at the bottom Of the recent trouble in
Which American and British officials
on one side and German officials on
the other came into conflict, and with
the result that force was employed by
the former to secure recognition of
their rights. There is trouble now
over claimant to the throne a de-
scendant Of Malietoa who has been
recognized and whom Mataafa resists.
These two chiefs have come into con-
fiict and battle has been fought. The
Germans favored the unrecognized
party this time, precisely as they did
IN the earlier contest when Mataafa
was rebel as he is to-day, and a dis
credited chieftain The British Gov
ernment has ordered ships of war to
Apia and the United States will do
likewise In the meantime it Is to be
hoped that the English and American
oIitcials in the city Of Apia will be
aoie to teach the arrogant Germans a
lesson they will remember.
1t is gratifying to learn from Wash

COLOR BLIND ARTISTS.
Strange Instances OF Successful
Painters Who Gould Not Tell
Red from Green

To speak of a color blind artist
sounds like joking, said London oc-
culist, but. strange as il may seem,
there are several persons so affected
who can nevertheless paint extremely
WELL Numbers of color-blind people
there are, of course, who draw perfect
ly in pencil, ink and crayons, but my
self know a scene painter attached TO
provincial theater who, though
color blind" paints all its scenery, and
has quite local name, not only for his
interiors" and oak chambers, but even
for landscapes. 1 can tell you also of
two London ladies' who have consulted
me for color blindness, who paint real
ly beautiful pictures. One is the daugh-
ter of late famous artist, and was
taught painting by her father. She is
quite unable to distinguish red from
green, but her colors are labeled with
the names, and she has been taught
which TO use for certain effects Pos
sibly her painting may seem ia her
eyes, as it were. drawing with brush
and shading" with the colors. The
other is a lady artist Of some celebrity
who has for years exhibited annually
in London. The public are not aware
that she is color blind. She painted
'rhe Wedding Group for a certain
noble bridegroom a year or two ago
and also several public mems portraits
and one of an eminent physician
fetched 500 guineas. There is a gentle
man residing at Kensington who, hav
ing years ago left the navy through
finding his Advancement hopelessll
barred by his color blindness, is at pres
ent making several hundred yearb.

artistic and brightly colored pictur
