" Committee on Revision and Re
form OF Laws, which is sitting
jointly with the Code Commission
and the Senate Committee on Code Re
vision for the recodification of existing
statutes, had tilt with the Assembly Ju-
dietary Committee this morning. 1t was
precipitated by Johnson, chairman of the
latter committee, who made motion that
all the bills submitted to the Revision
Committee should go before the Judi
ciary Committee before being finally acted
on by the House.
The work before the Revision Commit
tee is of a most important nature and
entails arduous labor upon the members.
The statutes considered by it, though al
ready in type, have to be reported to the
House In the form of original bills and
consequently any changes that the COM
mittee desires can be made by it before
reporting. If the Judiciary Committee
had the last chance at the bills it could
also make changes.
Houser chairman Of the Revision Com
mittee said when he submitted a report
this morning that few changes had been
made and that these few were trivial.
Johnson, in a lengthy speech, said that
he was unwilling to accept the report of
the Revision Committee as final and made
a motion for reference 10 his committee.
Houser made a spirited reply, saying
that the Revision Committee was work
ing four afternoons a week and four
nights and that if the Judiciary Commit
tee was to go over the identical work he
didn't see the use of his committee exist
ing.
Camp, knight. Waste and Covert spoke
against Johnsons resolution, saying that
there was no need of the evision Com
mittees work being gone ov r by the Ju-
dietary Committee.
Johnson withdrew his motion.

Of protest to the members of the
Legislature against the passage of the
Ralston bill. From Los Angeles and
Orange counties, as well as from Kern,
the very heart of the oil-producing terri
tory of California. the opposition will
be particularly strong, and it is now GER
tain that the bill Will be opposed by all,
or nearly all. the members of both houses
from those counties.
For the purpose of combating the bill
the oil producers in the south have or
ganized and have appointed committee
Whose sole duty'it will be to work against
this and similar bills. This committee,
which is composed of some of the best
known oil operators in the State, includes
w. l.! Stewart, Dan Murphy former SEN
ator r. n. Bulla, Thomas Hughes. l.. w.
Andrews, E. w Bacon, w. c. Price and

the Fullerton district in Orange County.
1t has been intimated in letters received
by members of the Legislature that the
committee, among whom are some well
known politicians, will come to Sacra-
mento to enter the fight against the bill.
In their letters they state that they will
have the support of all the large con-
sumers of oil, especially those of San
Francisco. for if the bill becomes a law
it will be unlawful to use crude oil for
fuel in manufacturing establishments.

In discussing these subjects,
many strong points were present
ed. Among them were Large
pupils should be criticised rather
than smaller ones" "Patrons
should notify teachers of any
grievances personally and not
through pupil. Teachers should
say what they mean and mean
what they say" Require your
pupils to use their own language
in the recitation in preference to

son, and William Wink went down
to the Eastern Shore with William
F. Wink of Belfast and stayed a
few days until they saw "Billy"
settled in his new home. These
gentlemen are all well pleased
with the country down there. Of
course, Mr.. Funk has bought a
big farm, and intends to move to
it in the spring.
William Wink had little ex.
perienco in accompanying the
stock car from Hancock that was
not down on the program. Down
in Delaware, someplace, he was
sidetracked and compelled to stay
there tied up from Saturday ur-
til Monday morning.
He says, after roofing around
over "Bunty's" farm for rocks,
the biggest he could find he
brought along home in his vest
pocket. The largest was about
the size of pigeons egg.
The whole party was met at the
station by Vince Prosser who
would hear no excuses tolthe
contrary, but took them all to his
place and entertained them i'm
great shape all the time they
we're there. Mr.. Prosser and
Mr.. Wink are uear ghbors.
We think it would be pretty
good scheme to get up crowd and
go down and board a few weeks

Wink-about the time water
melons are ripe.
