The lamentablc project OF the
Attorney General has been defeated
1t was not necessary for the House
of Delegates to oppose the consum-
nation of this most llnwise measure
the fantastic project of spending halt
a million dollars for the creation OF
a new redemptionist encampment

the very members of the congreg-
alton.
This time-in part, at least pu-
blic opinion has been victorious.
But it is unfortunately certain that
the project for monopolizjng the
docks will develop into threatening
and intermittent spectre, just as was
the case with the substitution for the
mortgage law of the mogrebino Tor

displayed such partisan affection.

San Francisco have notified their GUS
toners, the men who are trying to

advance in the price of Ar and redwood
lumber. which is now higher than 1t
has been for many years.
The wholesalers say the retailers did
it. The retailers say they are the vic

non1ic law. and offer to prove their
innocence by the gospel Of John Stuart
Mill In making the advance, they
say, they are not increasing their
gains but merely maintaining their
margin of profit.
