MARIANA NOT THE ONLY BOSS RID-

The Governor is the CEar of Legisla
 s, tion.

The Governor is the CEar of LegiSla- Sacramento Bee.
 Ii is indeed unfortunate that condition has grown up in the State Legislature where one nan--the Governor-dominatcs hoth legislative branches. and where the chosen representatives of The People are cowed by fear of losing t1a favor and sup port of the Executive. Time was in the his- tory of this State when the reverse was true-vhen the Governor was no autocrat but found 1t to his advantage to give heed to the wishes of the men who under the Constitution are expected to frame the laws.
 Under the present order it Is next to ira- nosible for A legislator to win support for Q measure no matter how worthy, 1t may be-. unless he has first seen the Governor about 1t. and can show his fellow legislators that the Governor favors 1t.
 They may go before the Ways and Means comittes and talk until doomsday without Committee and talk until doomsday wfthous have seen the Governor.
 Tn cases where a bill is known as an Ad- ministration measure prepared under the Governors own direction. and in further ance of his own plans, the case is hopeless. Pressure must be brought not upon che chosen representatives of the people in . coordinate branch of the state Govern ment, but upon the Executive. The man who introduced. the measure has an ear receptive to one voice only-aad that his masters. the Govsrnors-not The Pso- pls's.
 While the system is good aA no time. it's bad effects are minimizsd only when tho State haa c Governor whose motives are far above the motives Ot the average political Governor

 T don't know.s sighed Kitty, help lessix. You see. I've gone all through the figures of love and the minuet and there's no variety left. That's why love courtship are over. there is nothing to do but to stop dancing or to settle down to the deadly monotony of the slow waltz Of matrimony. You can't begin all over again, because there Is only one beginning and one end to love. And besides. there isn't any va riety in 1t after you have repeated It two or three times. A man tires of the game or the woman. when he gets to know her program by heart; just when she Is going to smile. just when she Is going to sigh, just when she is go- ing into tantrum. and--'

AIDhonso shooks stIR NecIxs,

King Alphonso of Spain has been giving some strong indications of his originality and independence of spirit, which have quite shocked the stiff- necked Spanish grandees and courtiers to whom etiquette and tradition Is everything.
 Especially have the rigid Catholics of the court been scandalized by the kings order that an Anglican chapel shall be fitted up for the use of his mother in law when she visits Spain.
 The king paid no attention to their protests beyond saying contemptuous- iy: well, gentlemen, if you do not like it. you need not go there."
 Another incident shows the kings decisive character. He granted leave of absence to an officer of the Palace guard to see his dying mother at Avt- la, ninety miles from Madrid. As a special train could not be obtained the king placed his fastest automobile at the disposal of the oflcer and ordered his fastest chauffeur to so at top speed to Avlla.
 The road leading there 10 marrow, steep and dangerous one and the ehauf- feur raised objections.
 Very we'll said King Aphonso. -if this is so difficult I shall have to drive the car myself.
 Then the chauffeur obeyed without another word.

President John Quincy Adams. was accused of robbing the Government and of various kinds of vilensss. It was charged that Clay had bargained to aid Adams fin the contest of 1894 as the price of an appointment by Adams as Secretary of State. and the charge. which nobody in our day believes. and which nobody in any day had. a right to believe. hampered Clay to the end of his career.
 Lincoln was stigmatized as clown. an ignoramus. and negro worshiper. Grant was denounced as a butcher. Hayes was called Q thief. the pretense being that he stole the Presidency. Garfield. Arthur.

Hard Times at Monte Carlo.

The poor owners of the casino at Monte Carlo are complaining of hard times. The profits show a decrease of S600s000 from the same period last year, while the shares have dropped more than $40. The decrease. Is due to the fact that there are less Amer-s jeans at Monaco this winter than at any time during the last decade and those who are there are playing less recklessly than usual, but besides the

 Copyright 1907 by the International
 Press Snydicate.) , Paris, March 2.-There is one man, at least, in France who believes in the authroity of President Fallleres
 M. Bertrand had quarreled with his wife who, on account of his cruelty had obtained a divorce from him, on the question as to who was to have the custody of their only child. The wife had been given the care of the child, but Bertrand who loved his child could not live without it so he wrote to his wife asking her to return to him but received no answer.
 He then wrote 6 registered letter to M. Fallieres, addressing him as the magistrate of France, saying: Mon sieuri For the last two weeks I have in vain been trying to get justice. so now send you a letter asking you to sec to the matter, being sure that you can help me.
 If, however. you should not feel 80 inclined. will come to the Elysees to blow your brains out"
 M. Fallieres has not disappointed the man as to his power, but 1t was used to lock M. Bertrand up, not to help him to get back his child. Experiments of santos DumOnt.
 The French military authorities have placed at the disposal of M. Santos Dumont a piece of land at St. Cyr, near Versailles. The plucky little Brazilian intends to build a large shed for his new aeroplane and to transfer the seen of his experiments from St. Cloud to this place.
 The new aeroplane is of the same type as the one with which M. Du- mont made his first flight. The only noticeable difference is that light wood has been substituted for the canvas previously used for the sustaining and guiding planes. It will be known as the Santos Dumont No. 15, and will be tested one of the first days of next month.

 Evolution of the Artist.
 The evolution of tho artist is dis cussed interestingly by pr. Max Nor dau. the famous author of "Degenar- ation", in a new book "Art and Ar tfsts' pr. Nordau treats the sub ject from 6 scientific standpoint pa. tiently analysing both the artist and his work and makes some notable sug- gestions.
 The prototype of the true artist, he says, was the cave dwelIer of prehfs- torica times, who in moments of leisure scratched illustrations of hunting scenes on bone because he was solely moved by the impulse to please htn- selNby expressing his emotions.
 The cave-dweller IS buried with his bones, the artist survives but in modified type. The modification oecurr- ed when he began to sell his works. It is supposed that the cave-dweller did not or could not dispose of his enRravings and it is owing to that that he was able to maintain his artistic integrity, which perished with him, for as soon as the element of patronage was introduced the artist had to consider, not only what he would like to produce but what his patron would pay for.
 The result, says Dr. Nordau. is a the result of which is that at every period art is suited to. the prevailing conditions of civiliza- tion, so given the conditions at any period it will always be possible to deduce correctly the kind of art which would prevail and thus care full analysis of the social conditions or our own day will give the artist the key to success and popularity.

ore last week which gave some very fat
tering returns. A four ton lot was sent
to the sampling works in Black Hawk
that gave returns Of SOS OF. gold, 1915

making ii worth 1894 Is ger ton. This
comes from the same level that the for.
mer high grade shipments cane from
and it seems that the ore increases in
value as they advance. The first high
grade shipment gave about s2l9 to the
ton. Besides this they shipped an
Scord lot OF mill dirt to the mills in
Black Hawk but as yet have not had
any returns. The above must be con.
sidered excellent when it is known that
there are only two men working in the

improvements on Gold Collar Nine.

The work Of getting the Gold Collar
mire in good shape for active mining has
been going rapidly on for the past month
or so and good headway is being made
The shaft is about 700 feet deep ard there
is about go feet of water to pump out Of
the same. This will be commenced soon
as they are grading out at the west side
of the building for foundation for a
compressor to be installed. This will
also necessitate the enlarging Of the
building, which has already been started.
As soon as the compressor is placed
pumps will be put in the mine, and the
water thrown to the surface. In the way
of new buildings large and commodious
blacksmith shop has been added to the
building also. New ladders and skids
have been placed in the shaft and miners
are working in the 400-foot levels, widen
ing the same, and doing other develop
ment work. The shaft has been con.
nected with an old shaft east Of the mine
at the l50-foot level which gives good
amount OF fresh air. Formerly this con-
nection was made further down but is
now obstructed with derbis, but it will
be cleaned out.
