A freaklmeasure has been introduced
In the Legislature at Sacramento in
the shape of measure to prevent
s'doping" race horses. Aside from the
general proposition that a man who
would bet on a horse race ought to
have a guardian, the bill is vicious, and
will have contrary effect from what
1t may be intended to have. If such a
measure is passed and heavy punish
ment is prescribed, suckers will depend
upon the law for protection, and they
cannot well lean on a weaker reed.
Horses will be doped just the same. A
law that would reward a ''doper''
would have better results, or law to
enforce the posting of proper signs all
over race-tracks, such as Look out
for Thieves "Pickpockets," sharp
ers," "Put-up Horse Races" and ERE
spectable-L Looking Gentlemen would
not be out of the way ] have never
tried to beat a race-track, but Johnny
Hanson has, and what he hasn't learned
about the business by this time is not
worth while knowing, and he told me.

Carson Letter.

EDITOR COURIER: | received dis
patch from Senator Stewart on Janu-
airy 80 to the effect that the Secretary
of the Interior had approved five of
the maps and applications of the Alpine
Land and Reservoir Company for right
of way for their resery oirs, and that
two of the maps were yet under inves-
tigation, being Crater and Scott Lake
reservoirs. The approved maps have
been sent 10 the Land Office at Sacra-
mento, whence they will emerge. in
time. When l took this matter in
hand for the Alpine Company | found
that the maps had been stuck in the
Sacramento Office for over six months,
and had to pull them out by tenn
porary order from Washington After
inspection at Washington the maps
were returned for correction, the sur
veyor, F. L. Gould, having sadly neg
lected his work The papers got stuck
in Sacramento again, and had to get
another order from Washington to get
them out. then had Gould make the
corrections indicated by the Depart
ment, and he pretended to do SO, and
then left the country. The applica-
tions finally reached Washington
again, inspected again and again re-
turned for correction. then employed
L. F. J. Wrinkle of Reno to go through
all the surveys and make corrections,
which he did-and succeeded

Secretary of the Treasury, Gage,
urges the retirement of the greenbaeks.
He appeared before the committee
having in charge the elastic currency"
bill, and made his argument. There
are $500, 100000 of greenbacks in cir
culation, and the Republican party
wants to retire that money from cir
culation. The party demonetized sill
yer to contract the currency, SO as to
give money greater purchasing power,
real object. They said they wanted
the single standard, 'sstable' money
and an honest dollar. Now they want
"elastic currency" and they want to
retire the greenbacks 1t will be diff
cult for the honest money party to
conceal it's real object this time. The
party was defeated in getting dear
money, and increasing the purchasing
power of money, when it demonetized
silver, owing to the unparalleled pro-
duction of gold, which in great part
supplied the demand for money. Now
the party will try something else,
and the owners and holders of money
will always try to make it dear and
give itsgreater purchasing power. 1t
is natural; hog will always try to
lap more swill, and can never get
enough.i but, is this dickering with
the currency constitutional? When
silver was demonetized, the silver men
claimed it was unconstitutional upon
the ground that it impaired the obliga-
tions of existing contracts, and made
debtors pay more than they owed.
The Republicans cited the Legal Tend
Or cases, which certainly impaired the
obligations of existing contracts, but
which the Supreme Court upheld.
These cases were upheld no doubt be-
cause of the great danger the country
was in at the time, and was forced to
issue money.to carry on the war. But,
to show thelinconsistency of men, dur
ing the Bryan campaigns the Republi
cans argued that the RECOMMENDATION of
silver would be unconstitutional, be-
cause it would impair the obligations
of existingi contracts, and while the
Democrats claimed chat fact had been
accomplishment the decentralization of
silver, they also insisted that the Su-
preme Court had decided the matter in
the Legal Tender cases. Both parties
made right-about face.

CALL sTRIkE OFF.
Cotton Mill Operatives Postpone Ac-
 ton for Two Weeks.

Fall River. Mass, October 5.-The threatened industrial strike among the mills in this city for an advance of 5 per cent. in wages has been postponed for two weeks by vote of the textile council today. The secretaries of the various unions on being asked this even ing what had caused this change of front on the part of the council. said that the movement was supposed to be unani- nous.
 The carders and loom fixers understood that the agreement was to be unanimous or the vote to strike would take no effect. The other unions understood that the majority was to rule, but if one union stood out against the strike, 1t would be declared off On these two different un- derstandings the unions took their votes. In view of this difference of understand ing the members of the textile council thought 1t wise to defer all action as far as ordering a strike was concerned until two weeks from Monday. One reason for waiting until today to take this action was that they desired to see what action the spinners would take
 This afternoon the Mill Spinners' Asso- citation voted on the recommendation of the textile countil to strike on Monday morning. The vote was 213 against a strike and 73 in favor.

STREET RAILWAY FRANCHISE,
Alderman George B. Ward Discusses
 the Proposed Birmingham Grant.

< To the Editor. of the Age-Herald:
 There is now pending in the Judiciary committee of the city council measure granting the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power Company perpetual fran chise over more than seven miles or streets. This is about all the city has left that can be given away.
 This franchise is worth on present val uation more than one half million dollars to the company and for it they agree to pay s7S0O or s100 per block. It is not a fact that the promises of transfers and cheaper gas had any bearing whatever on this measure although MT. Jemison inserted it as a part of the consideration in his written agreement read to the board. This is stated to show the alder men that promises are not being kept and things some time happen between com mittee and board meetings
 :, Now contrary to the general impression this franchise has not yet passed. 7 It will come up for final action on De- tober 16, and be put through unless de- large to defeat it.
 II It IS only dererred thirty-f1ve days or until November Il the new Constitution will take effect and bar such a contract forever.
 Alabama at that time falls into line with Colorado, California, Massachusetts, Kansas, Illinois, Iowa, Indiana, Michigan Kentucky. Maryland, Montana New York city and other advanced commonwealths in limiting franchises to periods varying from twenty to thirty years, and declar- ing that grants in perpetufty are iniquit- ous and not to be tolerated.
 All the courts in the land that have had this question before them unite in saying that we may bind our own gen. { eration, but no exigency has ever yet been shown to exist, to justify the giv- ing away of rights belonging to gener- ations yet unborn.
 It might be supposed that members of the board who are recording themselves in the public prints as believing the new constitution a great, wise and beneficent Instrument, would not now be engaged in "jamming" through a measure that this same instrument declares illegal
