VACCINATION
BILL VETOED
Governor Refuses to Sign
Measure Which Contains
a Blow at the Practice
PENS A LONG MESSAGE
Thinks 1t Would Be a Big
Step Backward to Allow
1t to Become a State Law
PENS A LONG MESSAGE

SACRAMENTO, March S.-Gov-
e1nor Pardee to-day sent a message to
the Senate vetoing Senator Leavitts
bill to prevent vaccination being made
q compulsory condition for admission
10 the public schools The message,
which contains nearly 1900 words, is
in part as follows:
l speak as one familiar by training and edu-
cation with the subject matter when
medical authority throughout the ciVilizea
world asserts that vaccination is the prime
cause Of the practical disappearance OF small
poa-one Of the most dreaded and dreadful
diseases OF pre-vaccinstion times-frorn com
munities protected by it. Under its eenen-
cent protection the decimating epldenlcs
which fmeriy swept through Europe have
very nearly disappeared and the disease. modl-
fed by vaccination, has now. TO great e1-
tent lost its terrors in the minds Of those
who have neither witnessed nor suffered from
its devastations.
Before the discovery and application by the
immortal Jenner. the disease was nearly uni
Verssl and IL considered 10 be grave
childhood Severe and terrible epidemics nave
gradually but surely become things Of the past
except where from any cause vaccination has
been neglected
That accidents Of many kinds, even death,
may follow vaccination Is not and cannot be
denied. But that the number Of these acei-
dents compared 10 the many many thousands.
even millions. OF times which this benehcent
procedure is practiced. is anything but inf1ni-
J.
Tetanus lockJaw not infrequently follows

with the horror that follows infected vac

abrasion be followed by lockjaw.
y hen vaccination is compulsory and the law
is well administered there IS but little small
pox; little that those protected by vaccina-
tion soon lose their fear Of the dread disease.
And turning their attention 10 the lesser evils
OF the vaccine virus many Of conjure a
fear not warranted by facts against the very
thing that saves US from much worse fate.
And this I think, Is what has called into
being the bin which I now return TO you IN
signed. Were II 10 become law there can
be no doubt that vaccination would soon
fan into practical disuse. And thus would be
prepared among our children mot mine, for
they shall always be protected) a field for
smallpox 20 fairly revel in.
The only thing at issue here and now in
this bill il seems to me, is whether or not
the State shall or shall not reverse its present
prO-vaccinstion policy and assume what this
bill practically provides for a no-vsccination
policy / have no hesitancy whatever in say
ing that in my judgment il would be a sad
mistake for the State TO thus change front on
this most important matter.
BY a vote Of 23 10 the Senate to-
day refused TO pass the bill over the
Governors veto.

WORK OF THE SENATE.
Measure Making Oral Real Estate
Contracts Binding Lost.

SACRAMENTO, March S.-Assem-
biyman Stanton's bill, No. 10, which
had a stormy passage in the Assembly,
was denied a chird reading in the SEN
ate. The purpose of the bill was to
make oral contracts for the sale of
real estate binding upon the owner of
the property. Bills passed were:
BY Assemblyman Lynch-No $40. amending
section s16 OF the Political Code relating 10
the fees 20 be charged by the Secretary Of

The Senate tonight defeated Lynch's
bill, carrying an appropriation Of
Sl70,57S for the Improvement of the
State Capitol. Objection was prin-
cipally made to the bill on the ground
that bill appropriating 1852. 900 for
repafrs about the Capitol is now before
the Governor.

NO BARBER BOARD.
Bill to Re-establish Commission Killed
in the Senate.

SACRA AMENTO, March S.-The pro-
ponents of the bill aimed to establish
a BARRIERS commission ito regulate the
pursuit business, art and vocation
of barbering; to license persons carry
ing on such business and to insure the
proper qualifications of persons fol-
lowing such business and to enforce
sanitary regulations in the shops of
the State, made desperate attempt
in the Senate this morning to pass
their measure on reconsideration. They
failed by two votes and the bill is
now dead. AS result the commission
that wss abolished by the Legislature
two years ago, after a thorough exam
ination Of it's methods, will not be re-
vived, and the BARRIERS that want to
hold their trade by installing the most
up-to-date methods will be permitted
to proceed on their own lines without
dictation.
After the Senate voted this morning
to reconsider the bill Carter was the
first to attack it. He said he saw no
reason why commission should be re-
Vived whose methods resulted in more
scandal during it's limited existence
than any other in the States his
tory.
Belshaw said the sole purpose of the
measure was to enable certain mem
berS OF the BARRIERS associations to go
through the State and collect so cents
from each victim and then go into pol
itics with the fund thus collected, as
had been done by the late unlamented
commission.
Senator Rowell said he was unalter-
ably opposed to the bill, and had
noted that one of the late Commission
ers had been in Sacramento since the
opening of the legislative session lob
byfng for the bill. It's only purpose, so
far as he could see, he said, was to get
rid of the barber schools in San Fran
cisco. Instead of fewer schools, he
favored more, he said, because he be-
lieved the thebry of sanitation could be
impressed upon the trade by such in
stitutions to a much greater degree
than by any commission that might be
named.
The call for the vote found only sew
enteen members In It's favor. Senator
Pendleton demanded a call of the
house, and several absentees were
gathered in, but out of the lot the bill
found only two in it's favor. The bill
was then declared defeated by the
chair

NEW YORK, March S.-Russell Sage

brought on by an attack OF grip. His
relatives and friends are greatly
alarmed, as there are grave doubts of
his ability to Withstand the ravages of
disease at his age. DIR. Mum spent to-
day at Sage's bedside and tonight
said:
Il do not look for a crisis in the pa
TENTS case at once. If he were a
younger man the symptoms would not
be alarming. He was taken down with
the grip five days ago and this has de-
veloped into a touch of pneumonia
which, of course, is grave in any case.
A man OF Mr.. Sage's great age has not

WITNESSES DESCRIBE
SANTA CLARA WELLS
Tell OF Connection Between Them
i'm Suit Against the Water
Company.

SAN JOSE. March S.-The case of
Charles Miller against the Bay Cities
Water Company was continued this
morning before Judge Rhodes. A
number of witnesses for the plaintiff
were examined and the evidence ad-
dueed was along the line of proof of
the plaintiffs contention that the wells
of the Santa Clara Valley drew their
supplies from the same underground
stream and were to a great extent in
terdependent.
John A. Wetmore, Harvey Swickard
and William B. Fielding testified to
the fact that large quantity of water
drawn from one we'll invariably low
cred the level of all other wells in the
ne:ghborhood, which, in their opinion.
proved that the wells were connected
underground. Cross-examination was
directed in the main to a determina-
ton of the character of the strata
through which the wells were bored.

Bill to Correct Evils Practiccd by
Pawnbrokers Passed.
SACRAMENTO, March s.-The bill
introduced in the lower house by Espey
and in the Senate by Woodward Ito
provide for Incorporation of associa-
tions for lending money on personal
property, and regulating the same. and
to forbid certain loans of money, prop
erty or credit" was passed by the As
sembly this morning and is In the
Governors hands.
"As the law stands" said Espey In
explaining the bill, banks cannot now
loan money on personal property In the
way of pledges. In the East corpora
tions. financial and charitable, have
existed for years under this proposed
law and have been very successful and
wrought much good. In this State there
is now paid to pawnbrokers 100000 a
year in interest at rates from two to
five per cent a month"
This afternoon the Senate refused to
reconsider the vote passing the bill re-
Quiring that the lenders of money on
chattels shall charge not more than
ten per cent per annum on loans and
that on each ticket issued by them
there shall be printed the law setting
forth the limitations placed upon them.
Senator Wolfe made a hard fight for
the reconsideration of the bill and gave
as his reasons that the bill under the
guise of an attack upon the pawn
brokers of the State was in reality a
measure In the interest of money
lenders who were not classed as pawn
brokers. Senator Wolfe.made the point
that the clause of the I'll which COM
PEELED Dawnbrokers to give a bond in
the sum of $1,000 was unconstitutional
and that the bill sought to impose
hardships upon pawnbrokers that were
unwarranted. Wolfe also called atten-
,tion to the provision of the charter
of San Francisco which gives the police
commissioners the power to revoke the
permit of any pawnbroker who violates
the law

John rose to a question of personal
privilege. He said that after the dis
cussion of Monday night Senator
Lynch, one of the trainers of the bill,
came to him at his deck and told him
he was making a fool of himself. John
told him he was merely representing
his constituents, and Lynch then, John
stated, called him a liar.
Il am for the people of San Luis
Obispo," said John in conclusion. "and
no man who has failed to stand for
them can hope for future political IA
vors at their hands
SHARP DEBATE FOLLOWS
The evils that exist are not as bad
as some of the evils In this bill" said
Drew. The so-called locals are build
ing the homes of the State. There are
twelve large companies that it is de-
sired TO regulate, but there are 138 mu-
tuals that we must give our protection.
I think the bill we have sent to the
Governor providing that companies
must pay back on demand the money
of investors is a big step in the right
direction and will curtail abuses
When this bill came UP for passage
Monday night" said Devlin. there
was no Copy on my desk. / thought at
that time the locals were being i'm
posed upon and voted against the bill.
/ have studied il since and will say
frankly / think it great Improvement
over the present law. / shall now vote
for it, The proponents of the meas
ure cheered Devlin.
THE original scheme of building and
loan business is excellent" said Nc
Gowan, but it's execution is faulty.
That legislation is needed is admitted.
For sixty days committees have been
at work trying to get out a satisfac-
tory law. and the bill before US is the
final result of all that work. The use
OF the liberties given some building
and loan associations is being abused. :"
MCGOWAN took up the John Lynch
row in defense of the Senator but
John stopped discussion on that matter
by stating frankly that he believed
Lynch's honesty could not be oues-
toned.
When all had answered on the first
roll call, the vote stood s5 for and So
against the bill. On the first call of
the house the bill gained two votes
and the opposition three. There was
another call of the house, the opposi-
ton gaining two and the proponents Of
the bill one. Chandler changed from
mo" TO aye" but MAXWELL offset his
vote by doing the reverse There was
a tie vote on a demand for a third
call of the house, and the Speaker de-
cided the question by voting against
it. The final vote stood 3S to 81. 1t

TO AMEND THE ACT.
At the afternoon session Waste sub
mitted some amendments to the Sem
ate bill, introduced to supplant the ex-
listing act establishing a building and
loan commission, acknowledged to be
unconstitutional. 1t Is thought these
amendments will help regulate some of
the evils existing in the building and
loan business. They provide that at
least once a year without previous no.

association, count the funds and check
the balance with the amount the books
show to have been on hand at the hour

The last amendment will serve as a
means to force investors to pay up.
