LOW ONE WAY RATE
PERIOD is DOUBLED

The spring colonist rates to Cali
fornia from all points throughout the
east and middle west will be operative
for thirty days, from March Is TO
April Is, over all trans-continental
railways.
This announcement was made yes
terday at the local Offices of the raj
ways, and is the decision reached at
the convention of passenger agents
now in session at Chicago.
At no period in the past has the
colonist period extended over a great
er period than Is days. The doubling
of the time for the low one-way fares
to this state has been occasioned be-
cause of the heavy rush taxing the
facilities of the railways, which has
come during the colonist periods.
The colonist rates now in effect,
became operative September 25, ana
will continue until October 10. The
movement, say the railway officials,
promises to break all records set il
previous years. While no exact fig
ures are obtainable as yet, the col
onists are reported to be coming into
Los Angeles at the rate of approx
| imately 1000 day. The estimate
made by the various passenger agents
at the beginning of the colonist sea-
son, set the number who will come
to Southern California this fall at
about 10000.
The lengthening of the time during
which the rates will be effective will
result, it is said, in bringing many
more to Southern California. 1t i,
significant fact that previous to
the beginning of this falls colonist
season the local chamber of commerce
was flooded with inquiries as to the
price Of land as to investments in
the various industries. The INQUIRIES
as to land were the most numerous,
and on this basis, it is believed, that
a large number of the fall colonists
will soon invest in farm lands and
settle down to increase the general
production Of Southern California.
1t is the opinion of T. C. Peck, gen
eral passenger agent of the Salt Lake
route, that nearly 70 per cent of the
colonists who come to Southern Cali
fornia remain here to become per-
manent residents, and add to the
wealth, the production and the gen
eral prosperity of this section. Inas-
much as every new arrival and SET
tier in Southern California almost
Immediately becomes a booster for
this section and brings many of his
former neighbors to the Southland to
make their homes here, it has been
found that the colonist rates over the
trans-continental railroad lines have
worked big things for this section.
The determination on the part of
the railroad companies, which matter
is decided by mutual agreement, to
extend the time for the spring colon
ist rates to full month, it is pre-
dicted, will mean big things for
Southern California.

convicted and sentenced for capital crimes. It might be well for the peo, pie of this state to understand the reason why that amendment was ad. ded to the penal code The determin, ed policy Of the governor that 10 man should suffer the death penalty for the crime Of murder fully justifes the action of the legislature in re, stricting his powers.
 Article 3, Section 3. of the state constitution provides that the gover nor shall have power to grant re prieves. communications and pard0ns after convictions in cases of capital offenses; UNDER SUCH RESTRIC TONS AND LIMITATIONS AS MAY BE PROVIDED BY LAW. Thus the state constitution invites the legisla tive body to restrict the pardon, pa role and repTieye powers of the ex ecuUive in such a manner as to bsst protect the interests Of the Iaw-abid ing residents Of the state. The amend ment adopted by the legislature tt the penal code, and which caused its veto some time ago by Governor n mt, did not eliminate the pardon parole or repTieye power of the gOv ernor it simply RESTRICTED and LIMITED these powers in accordance with the provisions of the constitu tion. The amendment is tTief one

 to the attorney general for an opinion as 10 whether it infringed on any ex--

The opinion of the attor- ney general was that 1t did not in- fringe any treaty rights of any nation and that it was in no sense ultra wires" The senator informed them that if they wish to get public hear ing they will have to apply to the pres ident of the senate setting forth the and the name of the committee be- fore which they wish to appear.
 The result of the deputation's wis it was telegraphed to Consul Y. Mum ano, and the consul wired back that the association could expect a visit from him within a few days SO that the fight for the land bill might ie fought to the best advantage.
