with most of its business yet un-
completed and most of its legiSla-

1889 State Legislature-far behind
schedule, due to its prolonged bud

fight over relief appropriations -
still must answer roll-call ON the
vast ma ajority Of the 1000 bills and
resolutions which were introduced
during the first half of the session.
And in that situation, unless it
is carefully guarded, lies danger for
the farming industry and virtually
every other earned-income enter
prise in the State of California.
During the hectic, latter days OF
a legislative session, when the bars
are down and bills are voted out OF

He kept referring to the wretched
state of the lower classes.

insufficiently fed and it is appar-

Dredger Picks Up
Old Spanish Gold
In Pirate Harbor

SAN JUAN, p. r., May 27 CUP
"A small fortune was drawn
through the suction pipe OF the
U. S. engineers dredger Orleans late
yesterday when the vessel, engaged
in deepening San Juan harbor
crashed open sunken chest and
spilled old Spanish coins along the
bottom of the sea.
The dredger was moving slowly
through the harbor when the
machinery stopped suddenly and
the crew heard clinking sounds in
side the 1900 foot pipe through
which slime is carried to fill in
Catano flats, across from San
Juan. The ships officers odrered
the pipe joints cracked to find
out the reason for the mishap and
inside they discovered quantities
of coins that had been sucked up
Other coins had been drawn into
the machinery, stopping it.
Inc CONS, which date from 1870
and 1910 and cover the reigns of
Carlos III to Isabel II, were offered
for sale by the crew members, but
U. S. District Attorney Cecil Sny-
der warned that to keep them or
sell them is a violation of the gold
boarding act. The coins were be-
lieved to have belonged to the
notorious Puerto Rican pirate Co.
freSi.
The sailors estimated that at
least 100 of the coins passed
through the pipe, and they plan to
start mining for them as soon as
the slime hardens on the flats.
