do doctors know how their own

to group of physicians.
ITO be sure" said one, "but we
have hard work to convince our pa
tients that we do. If you only knew
how this beastly stuff tastes, doctor,
you wouldn't ask me to take It, is
the complaint they make when dosed
with an especially disagreeable con-
coction. And they are hard-headed
people, too, who say that-people who
are by no means raving in delirium.
No matter how sincerely I may pro-
test 1t is hard to persuade them that
do know how the stuff tastes just
as well as they do.
"'How did you find out about it?'
is one of their trump questions. You
have never been laid up with all the
diseases in the dictionary How did
you learn what the different remedies
taste like?'
1T never occurs to the average
patient that tasting drugs is a part of
medical students education, and
that no man is qualified to practice
until he has learned the flavor Of the
medicines he prescribes."

an affirmative word, denoting a grant Whatever right ditch owner had to sell and distribute water at the time the constitution was adopted, or afterward, was not destroyed because it was called in the constitution franchise. The real meaning of franchise is privilege granted--not a right taken away; but the word was evidently employed in sec tion 2 mainly for the purpose of empha- sizing the general declaration in section l that the use of water for sale, distribu- tion, etc., is public use, and with the notion, no doubt, that calling it a fran chise would make more clear and cer- tain the intent to subject it to state reg ulation. In all other respects the mean ing and effectiveness of section 2 would be the same if the words lis 2 franchise, and' were not there.
 "But the serious questions arising out of section 2 are as to the meaning of the words cannot be exercised except by authority of and in the manner prescrib- ed by law This is the language upon which the contention ofappellants is ul- timately based, and which is to be seen prominently reiterated through the pages of their briefs. The contention really is, although somewhat thinly yelled, that respondent could not collect any rentals, or make any valid contract about the same, unless the legislature had passed lava statute law as they say-expressly giving the power and prescribing the manner in which it should be exercised, and that the de- murrer should have been sustained be- cause such statute was not set up in the complaint. The contention rests on the proposition that when the constitution was adopted in 1879, it immediately prohibited the owner of water ditch from selling any water or making any contract about furnishing any water, or collecting any rentals therefor, until the legislature should enact statute ex- pressly conferring power to do these things; and, further that the consti IL tion gave the legislature power, by inac- tion, to utterly destroy all property in ditches and water rights used for the distribution and sale of water. This proposition cannot be maintained; and we do not think thatany authority cited by appellants goes to the extent ofclear- ly and frankly declaring that to be the law, after careful consideration of its full significance.
 "It was no doubt contemplated that the main evil to be remedied existed in

cities and towns, where it was feared that a corporation having practically a monopoly of furnishing water therein, would, by exorbitant charges, oppress the large number of small buyers who are compelled to have water constantly for domestic purposes. Therefore, it5 is provided with great detail in section how compensation for water furnished within municipalities may be collected it being provided, among other things, that said compensation shall be fixed annually by the governing body of the municipality, and that said body shall
 be subject to peremptOry process to compel action in the natter and to penalties for not taking action. The section also provides that if the persons or corporations furnishing water in mu- nicipalities shall collect 'comUensation' therefor otherwise than as established
 by the governing body, their franchise
 and waterworks' shall be forfeited to the municipality. Whether the latter clause could be enforced is a question not arising in the case at bar, but it shows, as other provisions of section show, that the convention, when deal ing with the subject of water, had par ticularly in view the furnishing of water within municipalities, and determined that it would itself handle and legislate upon that branch of the subject so far as to leave little if any, power to the legis- lature in the premises. But nothing of the kind appears in the constitution about water rights and ditches existing and running through mining and agri- cultural districts, etc, outside of munlc- qualities As to this latter class of prop erty, with respect to which private con- tracts for com pensation for the use of water had been the rule and apparently had been satisfactory to both purchasers and consumers, the convention, appre- hending that there might come evils outside of municipalities somewhat sim liar to those feared within them, took the precaution of declaring, so that such would be the law beyond question, that the use of water appropriated for distri- button and sale should be public use and subject to the regulation and con- trol of the state But it left to the leg islature the power and discretion of reg ulating the sale of water outside of mu- nicipalities if the time should come when, in its wisdom, it thought such regulation was called for-or to al- low the people to continue to freely con-

The discussion of the water rights of the people of the Imperial Valley which has been appearing in the PRESS for the past four weeks has attracted widespread attention and President Gleason has secured from Messrs. Ste- phens and Stephens of Los Angeles the attorneys for that company. the following opinion in regard to the mat ter under discussion. We take pleas ure in publishing this opinion for the gentlemen whose names are appended to it are not only high in the legal profession in this State but their opln- ion covers many of the points we have endeavored to make plain and largely substantiates our views in the matter. Ii will be observed that their argument is put forth to prove, First, that the California Development company tiled on the water of the Colorado river un- der the laws of California; second, that the California Development company and Mexican company are both one so far as the transactions with Imperial Water company No. 1 are concerned; third, that the California Development company had right to contract with users to deliver water for a certain price and that upon the performance Of their part of the contract they would be entitled to the payment agreed upon and that the Board of Supervisors could have no right to set aside the contract and fix the price at which water must be delivered by the Cali fornia Development company to lm- |perial Water company No. l: fourth that Imperial Water company No. is incorporated for the purpose of furnish ihg water to Its stockholders ONLY at cost and that the Board of Supervisors has no right to set the rates at which the company shall furnish water to its stockholders; fifth. that Water com pany No. is not authorized to furnish water to others than Its own stockhold- srs and that its stockholders acquire
 their rights only AS STOCKHOLM FRS of the company and not as users bf water. For as Messrs. Stephens pnd Stephens themselves say, neither
 he stockholders nor persons other than
 stockholders have ever made appropri-
 ltlons of water or done any act upon which claim of (water) right can be Pased.' 1.-The stockholder does not ,wn the water until 1t is actually deliv-
 red to him on his land " "Nor has
 my land owner ever owned any water ghich he could request the water com any to carry" Sixth. that such a

 any No. l is not mutual water com any according to section 324 of the
 lvll code of this State and that It's

 Rreful reading;

Coloring for cheese and butter used
to be made from annatto, but coal tar
colors are so much cheaper that prob
ably four-fifths of the colorlng matter
used in both butter and cheese at the
present time is made from coal tar, and
consequently more or less poisonous.
AS in all adulterated food products the
argument is advanced that the amount
of poison eaten with the butter Is 80
small as to render 1t perfectly harm
less. In fact 1t is stated that the ordi-
nary consumer Of butter would not get
more than an ounce Of colorlng mat
ter in four years. But there Is no end
to argument-a good talker will make
black appear white. The only safe rule
is to discard everything in the produc-
ton of food that has an Injurious
tendency.

many years inventors have worked on
this problem. Several times 1t has been
reported that the difficulties have been
overcome, and that practical machine
was the result. But up to the present
time the oh-fashioned hand manipula-
ton has prevailed. 1t Is to be hoped
that the inventor has succeeded this
time, because milking Is one Of the
hard tasks that comes twice n day,

At that instant thin streak of light

hung over the horizon rose a column of
flame that lighted up the night for an

red spark upon the water.
