OPINION
The Unpopular House.

New York Press.
1t would be unfortunate tn mistake
Senator La Toilette as defender Of the
present membership Of the United states
Senate when he says that body is more
representative Of the people to-day than
the House. What he means would be bet-
ter conveyed If he said the Senate was
the less nisrepresentatiye Of the Two
bodies The reason for this is found in
the greater Individual freedom Of Senators
who cannot be summarily suppressed, as
Representatives are. with the gavel Of
the Speaker.
This difference accounts for the large
improvement by the Senate upon the
Hepburn bill as 1t came from the House.
II Messrs. La Toilette Bailey and Till
man had tried 20 make in the House the
fight for Federal regulation OF railroads
that was partially successful in the Sen
ate they would have been crushed by the
weight Of the Speakers machine. 1t is in
credible that in the whole Republican
membership OF the House of Representa-
tives there were not half a dozen men
who knew the weaknesses Of the Hep
burn bin and were eager to strengthen
it. They did nothing, because they would
nave been hammering their heads aga nst
a stone wall If they had fought Speaker
Cannon and Representative Hepburn.
Far as the Senate standards fan be-
low the public wish, it cannon be denied
that the Houses are now lower Under
Mr.. Johu Sharp Williams the minority
there became cowrdly and dumb. and
the majority, under Cannon, responded
more sayishly to the demands of the
special interests than the group con-
trolled by Elltins and Aldrlch. The total
result was the easy and complete sup,
prossion Of the actual popular voice on
the iloor, to such extremes was gag law
carried.
a single Senator on the other hand, can
make just as good a fight on the floor OF
his chamber as a healthy and aggressive
minority on the theoretically popular
body. Mr.. La Toilette showed that by
the changes he forced in the Hepburn biz
and by the clever fashion In which he
forced every Senator 10 go on record
upon every point in railroad regulation.
lie accomplished much Of value.
a great deal more, IN the way Of eduea-
tion will be collected by the people in fu-
ture when the admirable pr nciples for
which he struggled are adopted.
The fight over railroad rates has n
flattered the peoples Judgment in the
choice Of their Cannons and Il pburns,
but il certainly went far to vindicate
the wisdom Of the fathers in the matter
Of giving us a United States Senate.

Special to The Herald.
SAN BERNARDINO, March H.
Ranchers in the Mount Vernon district
have won victory over the Fontana
Water company and it's allied interests,
which will result in the dismissal TO-
morrow In the superior court OF an M
junction suit commenced some months
ago by the Mount Vernon Water COM
pany The Fontana company sought to
change the point of delivery OF water
to the Mount Vernon company.
The real issue in the case at the
time was that by changing the point
of delivery pumped water would be sub
stituted for Lytle creek water. The
proposed action was forestalled by the
Injunction case. The result is that the
Fontana company will continue to de-
liver the water as in the past, Inc
issue of substitution of pumped water
for the creek water has not yet been
fought out, but should it be attempted
another legal contest will ensue. it is
alleged.
This case is similar in many respects
to the case which the city recently COM
promised causing a great depreciation
in the city's Lytle creek water right.
Many feel that the city's interests
were needlessly sacrificed in the case
and would rather have seen the matter
fought out in the courts, even If the
city lost in the end. The city's case
differed only in that in the deed ac-
cepted by the city four years ago and
the OLD substitution contract drawn
years ago, but never taken advantage
of. was recognized, thus tying up the
city to a certain extent. 1t is possible
that the city case may be again re-
opened.
