sCOTCHING SACRAMENTO.

Governor Gillette of California has
signed bill for removing the capital
from Sacramento. The bill provides for
submitting the question to the voters
OF the state. Now for battle royal be-
tween the real estate spectators.
Whether or not the location Of a capi-
tai actually does help city, the pros
pective capital will be gold mine for
real estate nnanipulators for time fol-
lowing the removal, should a removal
occur. A syndicate of real estate specu-
lators with options on Berkeley land
has in fact been active in the capital
removal project Despite intellectual
convictions the tinid capital of Sacra-
mento will hardly be able to accept the
view of one San Francisco newspaper
that I'VE do not believe either, that
many men of sense in Sacramento care
a tinkers objurgation whether the
state capital says there or not For our
part, when we contemplate the shabby
lot of heelers and stew-bums that herd
together during the legislatures ses-
sions we are profoundly grateful that
the capital is as far away from our
own city as it is; and we would be
more profoundly grateful if 1t were To-
Gated SO far away that the representa-
tives from San Francisco could not go
there and back short of a ten years
journey"
One of the arguments that is said to
have had weight with the legislature
was that Sacramento deserved to be
punished for the way it voted at the
last election.

FENCING 1T IN.

An innocent news item mentions the
purchase Of another line of coasting
steamers by the New York, New
Haven e. Hartford railroad Such a
thing as a man or a corporation own
ing the earth has been dreamed Of,
though only partially realized. That a
man or a corporation should own the
sea has hardly been dreamed of, but in
this particular case it seems to have
been realized. Long Island sound Is
an inland sea-110 miles long and
twenty to twenty-five miles wide 1t
affords finely protected water front
for shipping and, beginning with New
York at it's western outlet, a line oe
manufacturing cities has grown up in
recognition of these advantages. More
than thirty years ago, in order that the
country might have the full benefit of
this waterway, the United States gov
ernment assigned it's greatest engineers
to the task of clearing the East river
to He'll Gate Rock, and that feat stands
today monument to John Newton, the
officer under whose supervision the
work was done. The sound is receptacle
for the waters of the Connecticut. the
Housatonic, the Thames and the Mystic
rivers and all this ocean empire is now
fast becoming the property of the New
York, New Haven q Hartford railroad
The company is not yet in position to
punish and prohibit trespassers, but
boats cannot sail the sea without a
harbor, and the railroad company con-
trols practically all the best landing
facilities on .Lond Island sound.

PORTO RICO.

Our Uncle Samuel has little douma
of his own on his hands. Porto Rico
is to have a new governor, appointed
by the president as the governor of
Canada is appointed by the king. The
Porto Rican douma technically known
as the house of delegates, does not
demand the decapitation of Mr.. Root
as the Russian delegates are doing for
Premier Stolypin but they do ask that
the president appoint a secretary of
Porto Rico, the old secretary having
been appointed governor, from among
the natives of Porto Rico, thus giving
us an opportunity to demonstrate our
ability in self government"
Porto Rico is being governed under
the theory that self government is to
be granted as fast as the islanders can
be trusted with it. The representative
assembly which they now have is al
ready chafing under the limitations
upon it's authority. Secretary Olmedo
of the San Juan board of trade writes
to an American paper protesting
against the sloWness with which these
restraints from without are being re-
laxed, and complaining particularly OF
the firm hand on the purse strings
held by the American officials. The
quest Tor a GOFlO IhlCStl SeCISldIS 10
a further evidence of the longing of
the Porto Ricans for more rope.
But San Domingo and Cuba do not
argue for letting Porto Rico too sud
denly out Of its leading strings. Porto
Ricans have still as the heritage of
centuries of Spanish rule small idea Of
the meaning of public trust. Public
office is to them a private snap, and
they come very slowly TO believe that
their American guides are governed
by any other motives and fellow any
other plan. With them elections are
made, even more than in our worst
American municipalities, to turn upon
the physical ability of those in charge
to drive their opponents away from
the polls. If this country can be
trusted to manage Porto Rico for its
good and not for ours-something tnat
is to be questioned, perhaps, in view
of our senate's treatment of the Phll-
ippines-the wise thing Will be TO let
them have their own way but slowly

EXPERT EVIDENCE.

If the Thaw trial sets people to
thinking on the farcical nature OF ex-
pert evidence as at present received
and used in criminal trials there will
be another lily to the credit of that
muck. mo well balanced medical man
would attempt to unqualiiedly define
insanity, said a medical writer re-
Gently. Although the law attempts to
define insanity, that definition is by no
means literally followed in filing in
sane asylums. In a case of this kind
therefore. expert opinions of all sorts
ON all sides are easy to find. A culprit
with plenty of money has here even a
greater advantage over justice than he
has in the hiring of lawyers, for mere
he buys evidence of fact, where in The
hiring of lawyers he merely buys the
most skilful possible disposition of
evidence. A jury knowing nothing Of
the sciences involved, most of whose
members could themselves be proved
insane by expert evidence given the
occasion to do so and discriminating
choice of experts, is supposed to de-
termine which expert has the true
theory and which the false In such a
proceeding justice has less show than
if the case were decided by the flip
ping of a nickel. In the long run the
latter method would give an even
chance, whereas under the present sys-
tenn the decision is likely to turn upon
the amount of money the respective
sides are able or willing to spend.

THE HUMBLE HARTMAN.

Is not this Hartman that would
have destroyed them that called on the
;,esrers of Washington for salvation
from railroad abuses? Six days ago
Mr.. Hartman left New York for
Washington breathing out threatenings
and slaughter against the interstate
commerce commission and all who
thought as ii thinks. He asked nothing
but for the railroads to be let alone.
Today he is back in New York saying
II am ready to make the advancement
of q scheme Of cooperation between
the government and the railways my
chief interest" He announces his be-
lief in regulation by the government
and made the commission a friendly
visit while in Washington. 1--WE all

planning that the opposition TO the
combination of capital was the result
Of their own failure to consider the
rights and views Of the public.

HUNTING TWO HAREs.

An old story in an old setting with
an open confession to furnish it's dis
tinction has TO do with an Indiana
editor He was a reformer, and won
the confidence of his subscribers by
his fearless fusillades against the
enemies of the people. Then the dis
ease by which Caesar fell fastened
upon his vitals He became ambitious.
A new postmaster was to be ap-
pointed, and he saw that he could
fight the battle of righteousness with
more cheer and vigor if he had the
emoluments of that Office. He men
toned the matter to his congressman.
A campaign was coming and the con-
gressman smiled upon his suit. soon
he had requests to say certain things
in his paper Then he was asked to
suppress certain things. Soon our edi-
tor found that he had lost control of
his papers policy, that this rested
with the politicians to whom he was
looking for that appointment. It's re-
form tendencies vanished. When the
time came to get the appointment IL
the postoffice the commission was made
out to another man. The editor dis
posed of his decaying paper, wrote an
apology to his subscribers for betray-
ing them as he had done, and van
ished into the darkness that the say
ing might be fulfilled: He that pur-
sues two hares at once does not catch
