FOURTEEN cases in the justices
court is the record of township one
for the past month. 1t is some con-
ISOLATION to find that the tariff on
common misdemeanors has been re-
duced from 25 to 10 days board. It
is still a notable feature that not a
single case of trial by jury is re-
ported. There are two jury trials
pending in said court, and have been
pending for weeks. The prevailing
practice is to plead guilty and take
the medicine. 1t would be a diver
sion for the accused in these simple
cases to demand jury trial. We
are inclined to think the interests of
the county, the liberties of the &C
cused, and the requirements of JUS
tice would be as fully met by such a
course as under the present "plea of
guilty" plan. Is some one trying to

highest record has been made the

board bill of prisoners-two hun

tide so far. For the keep of between
30 and 60 natientS in the county,
hospital last month, the bills for
provisions and meat amounted to
between $3.50 and $3.50. Never in
the history of the county has there

MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS.

The result of the elections in San
Francisco and Sacramento was a
genuine surprise to the knowing
ones. Few believed that Schmitz
had any chance whatever in the con-
test for the mayoralty of San Fran
cisco. The general opinion was that
he would be last in the race. Not
one of the daily papers was support
ing him. And yet he comes out a
winner by over four thousand ma
jority over Wells, the republican
candidate, who polled the next high
est vote. Tobin, the democratic nom
inee, who was pushed with all the
influence of two republican dailies,
the Chronicle and Call, was literally
buried under the avalanche of I'M
friendly votes. 3chmitz was the
candidate of the newly organized
Union Labor party. But we do not
attribute his success to that element,
as much as to the detection of the
out-and-out democrats who were
suspicious of the support of the re-
publican journals to the candidate of
their party, and who naturally in
terpreted it that Tobin if elected
was expected to do something for
them in return for their support.
The newly elected mayor has here
tofore been a republican. He is
averse to any radical changes as the
outcome Of his triumph on the labor
ticket. This success may encourage
the labor movement to continue
along political lines, and place a
state ticket in the field at the next
election. 1t is more than probable,
however, that the party as a politi-
cal factor will have run its race ere
the time for the placing of candidates
in nomination comes round, A
political party calling for cleavage
between employees and employers in
politics cannot hope to survive The

Ohio has piled up a majority of Co.

in the republican fold, and the re-
turns indicate the same for Colorado
Utah is strongly republican. The
only driblets of consolation for the
democrats are that Kentucky and
Maryland return to their old time
political allegiance.

QUITE a discussion arose at the
meeting of the board of supervisors
last Monday over the so-calIed emer-
gency bridge at Carbonate. The
board was anxious to have it appear
that they were backed in their action
in that matter by the opinion of the
district attorney, and had the min
utes of the October meeting amended
seemingly in that direction. The
minutes as amended, however, leave
the subject just where it stood be-
fore, and does not change the res
possibility in the slightest degree.
The district attorney is called upon
to give his opinion on propositions
of law. There is no dispute as to
the legality of building bridge in
a case of actual emergency without
calling for bids. But it is left for
the sound discretion of the members
of the board to decide whether any
particular case comes within the
emergency provision. The district
attorney is not required to tender
advice outside of law points. In all
matters requiring the exercise of
sound discretions, county officers are
supposed to be equally as well
equipped for discharging their offic-
ial duties as the district attorney.

WHY THE SUPERVISOR.

At meeting of the board of trade
of lone last week the subject of
dumping rubbish in the bed of SUIT
ter creek within the limits of that
town was discussed. The upshot of
the discussion was that it was de-
cided to call the atten ton of super
visor Amick to the evil, with the re-
quest that he see that the county
ordinance bearing on that question
be enforced. Just what power
supervisor Amick has in the premises
is not very clear The fact is he
has no more to do with the enforce
ment of local laws than any other
citizen. The incident serves to show
what extravagant ideas are some
times INDUCED in by good meaning
and intelligent people as to the
duties and responsibilities of officials
Because Mr. Amick is now men,
Der of the legislative body that years
ago-long before he became men,
Der thereof passed an ordinance
prohibiting the dumping of rubbish
in creek beds, therefore it is as
sumed that it is peculiarly his bust
ness to see that the law is enforced
1t would be ust as reasonable to
look to an assemblyman to see that
every law upon the statute books of
the state is enforced. The fact is
Mr.. Amick is part of the law max
ing power of the county. When it
comes to seeing that the laws are
obeyed, be is nothing more than an
ordinary citizen. The executive Of
fcer is the proper party to investi-
gate any violation of the ordinance.
The ordinance referred to by the
board of trade was passed in May,
1899, and is numbered so in the
ordinance book. 1t purports to
amend ordinance No. "a, which was
passed in 1887, but neither the origi-
nal nor the amendatory ordinance
provides a penalty for the violation
of its provisions. 1t is made a mis-
demeanor to do certain things, but
there is no punishment attached to
the commission of these unlawful
acts. True, this fatal omission is
sought to be cured by a subsequent
separate ordinance But even in
this doctored shape, we do not be-
lieve the district attorney, or any
other reputable lawyer, would care
to risk an appeal to the higher
courts. We have lot of sanitary
regulations that are practically in
operative. They simply cumber
the ordinance book. Is it not in
order to draw the blue pencil
through the lot, and build anew, in
manner that will afford at least
some reasonable ground for hope
that the laws will pass the ordeal of
appeal.
