GOOD JUDGMENT SHOWN

GOOD JCDGMENI SHOHN
California citizens showed good judgment in cast
ing their votes the twenty-one propositions sub
mltted to them on Tuesdays ballot Those that de-
served to succeed did So and those not deserving
went down to defeat.
Of chief interest among those succeeding
the reapportionment, Olympic bonds tax amendment
and park bonds those defeated included elimination
of boxing appointing board of education and the So
called anti-rodeo measure.
Except in the larger cities there little opposi-
ton to the reapportionment measure. The tax amend
ment and park bonds generally in favor through
out the state
The people wisely decided that if there is going
to be boxing they going to have something to
about how it shall be constructed they made it plain
that they not going to have the schools taken away
from their jurisdiction, and they not going to IN
jure stock-rasing and dairymg in this state by the
imposition of well-intentioned but misguided law
1t remains for those connected with boxing to
see that they appreciate the confidence placed IN the
sport. There are many who voted against the meas
ure to annul the present law who doubtless do not ap
prove of boxing but decided it is better to have the
state control it than to throw it back to undesirable
elements. The rules up by the athletic COMMISSION
must be rigidy adhered to and anything tending TO
place boxing in dsrepute must be squeched no matter
who happens to be injured in doing so.
Our public schools are the most important factor
entering into the daily lives of every California family
Parents only often take too little interest in school,
work To have supervision of the schools removed
from the electorate would have been step backward
Rather should every parent be encouraged to take the
closest interest in the schools and everything pertain
ing to them.
Occasionally there animals injured at rodeo
exhibitions They also injured in the performance
of farm work. AS general thing the rodeos are con-
Quoted on humane basis and where they are not the
law can easily step in and either stop the eXhblton
entirely or see to it that animals not mstreaed
To tie up the stock the dalryman IN the WORK
necessary to conduct his business, would have oeen
grave Injustice. Quite often it is necessary to use
force to handle animals but few men are gong to IN
iure stock which worth money to them even II they
are not prompted to be kind to animals through love
of them. -.
It is apparent from the vote throughout the state
that the great ma orty of voters studied the PROPOSE
tions carefully and voted on them lntelllgently'
Many gobber strutting around these days, oo-
sessed with the idea that he is the most important
thing in the world will be only material Tor soup on
November 80. And we haven't much on the goooeIS
How wise the founders of the country were to SET
the presidential election only every four years II
is bad enough now but GuppOsng we had 1t annually
Young Terhune has thrilling tale now but how
commonplace it will appear when he attempts to tell
it to his grandchildren.
Breathes there scribe with soul dead, who
after election has not said Ye gods my poor old acn-
ing head and fell supinely on his bed.
