THERE is a big row on in the of
fetal circle of San Joaquin county.
The supervisors recently let a con-
tract for furnishing a heater and
boiler to the hospital. The district
attorney refused to draw up the con-
tract, on the ground that the speci
tications were not drawn up with
sufficient clearness to admit of com
petitive bidding Thereupon the
supervisors, determined to carry
their point, if possible, called in
other lights of the legal profession,
who gave the opinion that the con-
tract was legally let. Still the dis
trict attorney refuses to recede from
his position, and the supervisors are
equally resolved to hold the fort.
The county clerk has taken a hand
in the game, and accuses the super
visors of acting against the Interests
of the county. The feeling engen-
dered eliminated Monday in a fight
between clerk Grunsky and super
visor Henderson Altogether, the
rumpus reflects little credit upon the
administration of affairs in our
neighboring county

employed, it is put to work-not in
the business center, which contri-
butes as much money in taxes for
the support not only of roads, but
OF the board of prisoners and salaries
of county officers as all the bal
ance OF the town put together-but
on the by-ways where heavily loaded
teams cannot go. We have nothing
to say against the improvement of
these thoroughfares, but we do pro-
test against the system which spends
all on these, and leaves the main
streets entirely neglected. The peo-
pile of Jackson and other towns will
not submit to this injustice in
definitely. The one argument urged
for the Incorporation of Suffer
Creek to-day is that Incorporation
would at least give them the road
money now collected within the town
limits for internal Improvement,
whereas it now goes elsewhere. 1t
is strong argument under the road
policy which has prevailed in this
county for so many years. If per-
sisted in, the outcome will be the
withdrawal of the principal towns
from participation in the county
road system. These towns-Jackson
at least-are willing to share in the
maintenance of the outside high,
ways, but they can hardly be ex-
pected to pungle up the lions share
of the road taxes, and get nothing
in return. That method of doing
business ought to be dispensed with.
1t must be discarded, if not by the
road commissioners, it will ere long
by the towns taking charge of their
respective streets.

OUR STREETS.

The principal streets of Jackson,
and particularly Main street, are a
disgrace. With the first rains they
are already converted into mud
lakes, and are likely to be maintain
ed in the same delectable condition
of slush all through the winter. The
disgrace attaches not so much to
the residents of the town, as to
those having charge of road affairs
in this district. The conditions at
the county seat are such that Jack
sons streets ought to be the pride
of the county. In addition to hav-
ing the largest amount in the road
fund of any district in the county,
there is always more or less prison
labor available, which is at the dis
posal of the road commissioner of
this district But outside of the
streets in the immediate vicinity of
the court house, this labor has not
been utilized. Is this right. Is it
in accordance with the spirit of our
road laws, that the section which
contributes the most for the mainte-
nance Of the roads, shall have the
least-nothing in fact-spent upon
its streets Jackson contributes
fully one third of all the road money
spent in the entire township, and
how much of that money has been
expended here ia return. We have
contributed not only the regular
road tax, but special tax year after
year, for the benefit of outside roads,
and still not a dollar can we get ex-
pended within the town proper. If
this is not taxation without benefit,
what is it. To carry this injustice
still further, when prison labor is

We cannot realize that thou art gone forever,
When we had no warning that thou vert

Lone hearts at home are aching in their sorrow
And seeming yet, to wait, but all in vain
For footsteps that are never, never coming
And merry voice they meier will hear again

strain of music that we hesr-then, all is

THE RAILROAD PROJECT.

Little is heard nowadays of the
once much-talked-o railroad from
lone to Jackson. Thousands of dol
lars were spent in making the pre-
liminary surveys, and it was report
ed that the scheme was going
through with a rush, when suddenly
everything came to a dead stand
still, and the whole enterprise seems
to have been abandoned. For what
reason no one seems to know; but
the most plausible explanation is
that the projectors did not have the
funds to carry it through. There is
certainly nothing the matter with
the grade. There are no engineering
difficulties in the way worth men
tioning The cost would not be ex-
cessive. The business outlook has
materially improved in the last few
years. The freight for the mineral
belt has increased to such an extent
that one freight train a day is no
longer able to handle it. This bust
ness is likely to increase rather than
decrease in the next few years.
The ancient talk of town being
ruined by the advent of a rail-
road is all moonshine. If town
possesses any natural resources of
its own, il must necessarily be
helped rather than retarded by
cheap and rapid transportation.
The railroad scheme should not be
allowed to drop out of sight. Over
six thousand people live in and
around jackson and Suffer Creek
nearly two-thirds of the total popu-
lation of the county. We do not be-
lieve there is such heavy popula-
ton anywhere else in the state,
within twelve miles of a railroad,
that is minus railroad facilities. We
believe if our citizens will only exert
themselves in this direction they can
get railroad. Outsiders have agi-
tated this matter heretofore. And
the agitation has not, it must be
confessed, received the cordial sup
port it is entitled to from some of
our own people. We must get over
the idea that good wagon roads will
answer every purpose for mining
community. They are well enough
in their place, but they are a very
poor substitute for railroads. A
persistent, determined effort on the
part of our citizens, coupled with a
disposition to invest in the enter
prise themselves, ought to bring
about some practical result. With
such immense quantities Of supplies
coming to the mines, the mine
owners would, from an economic
standpoint, be willing to help in a
railroad project that meant bust
ness. Why not organize a local
company to bridge the twelve miles
between the mineral belt and the
lone depot, with either a steam or
electric road
