Offered at Very Low Price.

The public Offering Of $4,000 San
Francisco City Hall 5 per cent bonds on a
40 per cent basis has caused investors
on the Pacific Coast TO question the out
look regarding the bond market. This
price is the lowest at which San Francisco
bonds at any time in recent years have
been offered to investors. on such a
basis the margin of profit for the under
writer's is small, and it is supposed that
the syndicate deemed it advisable TO dis
pose Of the issue at the price named
rather than take chances of carrying the
subscription over to a later period. when
lower prices might be realized instead Of
an upward turn in values.

Fever Of Useless Lawmakine.

The fever of lawmaking which period
ically attacks the erstwhle statesmen
has been productive of so many laws
that nowadays not only is the layman
puzzled when he attempts to bring order
out of chaos, but even experts become
entangled in the manifold weaves which
have resulted from a constant piling up
OF new enactments This is particularly
true in the restrictions thrown around
the banks of some OF the states The
Superintendent of Banks OF the State OF
New York in his last report says:
"As a result OF the manner in which
ii was compiled and amended. the banking
law OF the state to-day is fun OF incon-
gruities and antiquities In fact, the
language used is In many instances both
crude and proliX. So many Of its pro
visions are capable of different interpre-
tations that in order TO know what the
law with reference to any particular sub
ject is II is necessary 70 have com
prehensive knowledge OF the opinions Of
the Attorney General interpreting II
rather than TO be- familiar with the law
itself"
Fewer and more intelligent laws would
serve the institutions and the public TO
better advantage

rejecting those at the top, has al
ways been conspicuously unfriendly.
But the final answer Is the perfect
order which was maintained on the
4th OF March with the same force OF
policemen.
Greater responsibility than Sylves-
ter's. however, rests on Henry L.
Stimson. Nal Sylvester himself.
through the commissioners OF the dis.
trict, asked Stimson for the detail OF
troop OF regular cavalry from Fort
Meyer to help him patrol Pennsyl
vania-ave. This request was backed
up officially by committee Of the
woman's suffrage organization. In adj
dition. the matter was urged on Slim
son unofiicially by at least 20 differ
ent people. including his close per
sonal friend. Clifford Pinchot. The
writer OF this article telephoned to
Stimson at 10 o'clock on the second
OF March. asking II II were possible
that a request SO strongly made ana
likely to be followed by such serious
results II refused, was to be refused,
Mr.. Stimson's secretary said the re-
quest was to be refused. He said Mr..
Stimson's answer was that It would
be putting the city Under martial law
to bring a troop OF cavalry from Fort
Meyer. This, OF course was a per-
fectly silly statement. The following
day. when Stimson did send this troop
on orders from the president, the city
was not under martial law. The

part OF Maj. Sylvester. superinten'
dent OF police, was demonstrated on
the following day, when. with the
same police force at his command,
the lines were perfectly kept. not
single person moving from the curb
toward the marching column.
Now. as to the responsibility. The
truth Ia the treatment accorded these
women paraders was the result OF a
deliberate intention. The people re-
sponsible are Maj. Sylvester. chief or
police, who from the beginning has
been unfriendly: Henry L. Stimson,
secretary of war, who was asked Tor
army protection and refused It; ex-
President Taft, who could have given
orders to Secretary Stimson and who
finally did order him to send troop
OF cavalry from Fort Meyer; and q
generally hostile sentiment on the
part OF senators and members or
congress making up the District OF
Columbia committees.
Mai. Sylvester presented an I'M
friendly front when the women first
asked for a permit TO use the avenue.
He kept them waiting 10 days ana
gave as his excuse for not readily
consenting, the fact that the parade
would be mobbed. 1t would appear
that Sylvester was more anxious to
see his own prophecy fulfilled than
he was to protect the women and
children. From the beginning the
women have found 1t almost impos-

troopers we're acting under Sylvee
ters immediate direction.
The final rescue BY the troops from
Fort Meyer happened as a result Of .
telephone message sent by newspar
per correspondent who called the
presidents secretary, and told him
mobbed on Pennsylvania avenue, ana
that the president would be held r.
sponsible for any consequences which
might follow. This finally stirred
Taft, who was, taking q little lunch
with the members Of his cabinet, ana
he told Stimson to order over the
cavalrymen. Stimson Is opposed to
woman's suffrage, as IL Taft, and the
whole trouble was the direct result
OF this FEELING Of unfrfendfiness 1t
the top. Ample warning OF what
might be expected was furnished
when the Resale Jones Pilgrims ar.
rived from New York. They were
mobbed all the way down Pennsyl-
vania-ave. and many women were
hurt. Four mounted officers and two
men on bicycles were all that Syl.
vester furnished as protection for
these women. They were at the
mercy of probably $4,000 people along
the avenue.
The city OF Washington is the worst
governed city in the country. and II
Is to be hoped that this incident VIII
direct attention to the need for an
entirely new system for the District.
including votes for the citizens Of the
District and some method for remov.
ing inefiicient public servants.
The appointment OF Senators Jones.
Dillingham; and Pomerene as an In
vestigating committee, indicates an
intention to whitewash the AFFAIR.
These are not the most reliable man,
