woodpeckers are very useful as insect

search Of the grub, caterpillar or other

harbor these pests and are more or less

STATE HISTORY

WILLOWS Promoter: AT their approach
ing State meeting at Salinas the Native
Sons are to consider the proposition of
founding and maintaining a Chair of
State History a the University of Cali
fornia The propositionsds commendable
in the highest sense, and if it is carried
out it will dignity the order. Our State
history is fuller and richer than that
of many of the older States and it is
of paramount Importance that our youth
should not be allowed to grow UP with
superficial knowledge and apprecia-
tion of it. 1t is eminently befitting that
this chair should be established by the
young men and women who are to-day
undertaking the things which shall add
to that history, a knowledge of which
they propose to promulgate.

APPOINTMENT OF SENATORS.

The appointment of NJ S. Quay to be
United States Senator from Pennsyl-
vania, the Legislature of that State
having failed to elect a Senator, raises
once more the question whether that
method of filing vacancies is within
the Constitution, and also the right of
a Governor in the premises The ques-
ton gains added interest in this State
because of the vacancy existing in
the office of Senator by reason of fail
ure of the recent Legislature to elect.
In view of the statement that the Gov
ernor has resolved to appoint a Senator
to succeed Stephen NJ White, term ex-
pired. we present in another column an
elaborate statement Of the law and the
decisions as they are presented in Fos-
ter on the Constitution, the conclusion
being reached by that author that the
question is yet an open one. Mr.. Fos-
ter's review of the law and the cases
comes down to, but does not include the
late Oregon case. The article will be
found to be of much interest. and to
fairly present both sides of the issue.

gained? Nothing. What has been
lost? More than may be here expressed.
There has been a breaking down of the
orderly spirit; degradation of the law
the land that the moralities preached
before thenahave their exceptions; that
when they are told that the duty of the
good citizen is to obey the laws of the
land, respect the authority of the laws
administrators and to accord to every
man the rights guaranteed him under
the law it has exceptions; that the law
is at times worthy to be despised, and
have its functions usurped by the hands
of anarchy. That is the demoralizing
teaching of mob violence.
At Stockton a horseless stage has

While the horse is being superseded, his
value is augmenting and the market
price for good horses is higher than 1t
has been for some years. But then, we
are demanding and getting better
horses, as a rule, SO that for the ad-
vanced price we are receiving fuller
consideration. However, we need not
expect the horseless carriage to come
greatly into use in California. There is
an insurmountable obstacle, namely,
the lack of horseless roads. Until we
have infinitely better road conditions,
the horse drawn vehicle will dominate
in road transportation in this State.

THE TRUSTS.

Los Angeles Times: While the. ma
jority view the Organization of trusts
with disapproval or apprehension, there
are not wanting intelligent men who
argue in their favor, and regard them
as benefit rather than an injury to
the public.
OF the latter class is F. B. Thurber,
President of the United States Export
Association who in his testimony given
recently before the Industrial Commits
sion in Washington took positive
ground in support of trusts. He de-
clared that he had at first been preju-
diced against them, under the belief
that they would oppress the public with
high prices. But after a careful study
of their effects, ranging over period
of years, he has becomeAconvinced that
they are a natural economic exploita-
ton consequent upon the development
of the great forces which now control
the world-steam, electricity and ma
chinery, and that there is a rational
basis for their existence.
Mr. Thurber's line of argument is in
teresting. Reviewing at some length
the history of trusts, he said that they
began with the consolidation of the
railroads into trunk lines. Although
it had been feared that the consideration
would bring eXorbitant rates for trans
portation, the reverse of this result had
been realized. Mr. Thurber quoted fig
ures to show that between 1860 and
1895 there had been a reduction from
So 30S al ton for carrying a ton of freight
mile to 12 cents This reduction"
he said amounting to quarters
of the average rate of 1865, was ex-
ceeded by that in price of but few even
of those articles in the manufacture of
which new inventions have worked the
most radical changes. The entire trans
portation performed by the railroads of
the United States during the twelve
years ending June 80, 1894, was equiva-
| lent to moving 136.799, GIT ,S22 passen-
gers and S07. .935, ,3s2, S3S tons of freight

THE CAPTAIN OF THE RALEIGH.


Captain Coughlan of. the Raleigh has
got into trouble through his lequaelty
in a post pqandial hour of good feeling
He told the truth at that time concern
ing German annoyances to Americans
at Manila. and for that recital the Ger
man Embassy has now laid complaint
with the State Department. 1t is al
legged that the Captain at the same
time recited a poem ridiculing Emperor
William, that to say the very least, was
in bad taste, and was sacreligious. How
ever, concerning his sober declarations
that the German naval officers were in
sultingly annoying to Admiral Dewey
and to our other officers at Manila, and
concerning the strong, plain language
the Admiral used in warning the Ger
mans that he would put up with their
conduct no longer, unquestionably the
Captain told the truth.
However much the Germans may dis
ayow unfriendliness to this country, it
is established in the mouths of a score
VI pOdCUdDlS AlLIlSSSSS llIeil liz
naval representatives of the German
Empire while located in the bay of Ma
Mia maintained an attitude towards
Admiral Dewey and our navy that was
very little short of the hostile 1t was
annoying, pestering and petty. It more
than once stood tiptoe upon the thres-
hold of the aggressive and more than
once invited a conflict.
If the Captain of the Raleigh is to be
called to account for telling of all this,
he will at least have the defense that
he spoke veraciously. Nor will those
threatening to call him to account be
able to establish that he was under any
command not to tell the truth about the
situation in Manila Bay during the
weeks of the German gadfy business.
The ethics of the navy, the proprie-
ties of the service and the demands Of
the unwritten code of diplomacy may
make such recital reprehensible, and
hence the blunt speaking Captain may
suffer reprimand- But he will be ap-
proved by the American people for hav-
ing spoken out and snapped his fingers
under the nose of the hush policy.

POLITICAL GAIN.

Oakland Tribune: Those who have
wondered by what direct means men
like Croker obtain the huge fortunes
they amass while political bosses, can
get a few pointers on the proposition
by following the testimony presented
before the legislative committee now in
session in New York Croker's son, for
example, admits receiving in one trans
action $4,000 worth of stock, the only
consideration being that his father was
friendly with prominent men ''in the
railroad and other places" Incidents
of this description and the understand
ing that he receives a big percentage of
the profits of all municipal contracts
show that it is not very hard job for
the Tammany boss to roll up the income
of S200,000 a year he is credited with
