CONGRESSIONAL FOL-DE-ROL Indications multiply, pointing to the fact that when Congressman Smith comes home from Washington he will be met by so many savages off the reservation that he will wonder why he ever left his happy home in Bakersfield. This state of things is not attributable in any degree to Mr. Smith's personal unworth, although even his best friends will not say that in his brief career at Washington his course has been altogether free of mistakes. But it is due to the inherent cussedness of the Eighth Congressional district, which believes implicitly in the doctrine of passing around the honors, be the effect of changing its representative at the national capital what it may. One has not to run his memory back over so many years ter will permit. One page book is devoted to each and the whole is profusely trated with a splendid tones.

But it is due to the inherent cussedness of the Eighth Congressional district, which believes implicitly in the doctrine of passing around the honors, be the effect of changing its representative at the national capital what it may. One has not to run his memory back over so many years to find that in that brief period, as congressional districts go, we have had six different representatives in the lower house of congress. There was Vandever, and Bowers, and Castle, and Needham, and Daniels, and now Smith. Needham saved his bacon by moving out of the district; all the others were ambushed, in one form or another, and done to political death. Rest their souls! How it will be with Smith it is impossible to say, but indications are not lacking that his nomination will be disputed this summer. Senator Ward of San Diego is mentioned for the place, but we still incline to the opinion, as we did last year, that San Diego is not yet entitled to the office. Its mendacious treachery to Bowers and Daniels still rankles in the heart. If we are to have again a change in congressmen, what's the matter with Orange county shedding her modesty, gathering up her skirts, clapping her heels together and getting into the game? The old lady can do things if she lists. GEORGE KNIGHT is back from Washington and is out in a great spiel for Gillett for governor. But at this writing, Pardee looks an easy winner. What a tremendous change in sentiment exists in Southern California regarding the Governor! Eight years ago we all went to Sacramento shouting for his alone.

People of San Francisco are pleased a welcome and a reception teachers, the equal of what never been given any organ. The people of California established a reputation for hospitality and those who tended any convention held late years eagerly attest to. But the preparations now gress for the reception and attainment of the teachers such former efforts at entertaining rates of transportation, facilities and the exceptions tractions of the Pacific coast undoubtedly induce many to make the trip. The that will go and those who stances may keep away, very much interest in the trip a continent, in the proceeding convention, in the reception entertainment which will in their honor, and in materialtaining to the convention.

GEORGE KNIGHT is back from Washington and is out in a great spiel for Gillett for governor. But at this writing, Pardee looks an easy winner. What a tremendous change in sentiment exists in Southern California regarding the Governor! Eight years ago we all went to Sacramento shouting for his distinguished opponent, and again four years later; although some of the boys possessed a list to starboard, and few came home under their own steam. Now we are ready to begin shouting for him. He has made a model chief executive, he is stronger than he was four years ago, he has been to Anaheim, and we see no good reason why he should not be nominated, Mr. Gillett of Humboldt to the contrary and notwithstanding. A new departure has been inaugurated by the California Promotion Committee in the publication of a California annual. The number for 1906 is just from the press and contains a world of information about the State. It covers twenty-one subjects together with a comprehensive table of statistics of the State. Each industry is segregated and treated concisely and clearly, giving a complete idea as briefly as the subject mat- SENATOR CARTER says more when he was a country teacher on $40 a month that when he was commissioned land office.

Think of it! A man, state senator and two men! We may get busy ave the capitol down this RAILROAD RATE BILL Next to the last stage in the railroad rate drama has been reached. The senate is about to vote on the as yet unamended Hepburn bill. Events have moved so rapidly that it is hard now to realize that railroad rate legislation shortly before the session began was declared an impossibility. It was said then that it would be a queer spectacle if the Executive dominated the coming congress to the extent of forcing rate consideration. That happened. Then came the rumors of a compromise and it was said that first this and then that provision for the benefit of the railroad had met with the approval of the White House. As the case stands up to date, the President has not expressed his approval of a single bill that has been introduced, and the Hepburn bill has come to be regarded as an adminiistration measure simply because it has been allowed to go thus far without opposition from the executive mansion. Now comes the crucial moment. It is said that the president has angered most of the republican members of the senate committee to the point that they were willing to allow a democrat and an avowed opponent of the White House to report the Hepburn bill entire. Whether or not this was good poli- Orange county has excelgressional timber, and may candidate to dispute the union with our friend Smith Warsfield. Think of it! A man, state senator and two men!

Table of California have essure a reputation for generous city and those who have attany convention held here of eagerly attest that fact. preparations now in prothe reception and enterof the teachers surpass all efforts at entertaining. Low transportation, improved and the exceptional atof the Pacific coast will induce many teachers in the trip. The teachers go and those who circummay keep away, will take interest in the trip across the in the proceedings of the in the reception and ment which will be given honor, and in matters perthe convention. R Carter says he saved he was a country school in $40 a month that he did was commissioner of the state. Binger Herman would the senator has wasted his ties. Now comes the crucial moment. It is said that the president has angered most of the republican members of the senate committee to the point that they were willing to allow a democrat and an avowed opponent of the White House to report the Hepburn bill entire. Whether or not this was good politics remains to be seen. The fact remains that Senator Tillman has introduced the Hepburn bill and it has reached the stage where it will have a chance to get all the amendment that is coming to it at the hands of the senate. There will be a lot of speeches made and doubtless there will be a lot of amendments offered and possibly some adopted. Angered as many members of the senate doubtless are against the President, it is doubtful if any amendments will be adopted seriously touching the principles enunciated in the bill. The republican members of the senate have already gone as far as they dared, and while there probably will be a hot or at least a wordy fight on the floor, it is questionable if there will be much actually done to the bill before it goes back to the house for reconsideration. If any of the amendments adopted touch the vital principles of the bill, the senate may be sure that it will be vetoed at the White House as readily as though it were some private bill against which charges were well proven. Severe blow to Shippers The decision of the United States supreme court sustaining the railroads in their contention in reference to routing of cars is a severe blow to fruit interests of California. Justice Peckham reverses the opinion handed down in the case by Justice Olin Welborn of the United States circuit court and places the shippers again at the mercy Severe Blow to Shippers The decision of the United States supreme court sustaining the railroads in their contention in reference to routing of cars is a severe blow to fruit interests of California. Justice Peckham reverses the opinion handed down in the case by Justice Olin Welborn of the United States circuit court and places the shippers again at the mercy of the railroads in the selection of the connecting routes over which their products shall be sent east. A synopsis of the decision follows: The suits known as the citrus fruit cases, in which all the railroads of Southern California were interested, were decided favorably to the railroads by the supreme court of the United States, the opinion being by Justice Peckham. The cases involved the right of the railroad companies to designate the route for fruit shippers east after leaving their own lines. The decision of the circuit court for the southern district of California and also the order of the commission was reversed by the decision. The suit was begun by the Interstate Commerce commission to test the legality of joint orders issued by all the railroads of Southern California in 1899 fixing a through rate of $125 a 100 pounds on oranges from Southern California points to the Missouri river and farther east. In this order the railroads reserved the right of routing the fruit east of their own terminals. The commission raised the question that the rating privilege was virtually a contract for pooling, and the railroad companies justified the requirement by saying that it was necessary to prevent the making of rebates.

For myself, I be-reforms of all kinds and just the greatest number, and all citizens should be of the same opinion. Let justice be done to all not single out any one particu-ling. Remember, that not only persons need reforming, but look wineries, wholesale houses, resi-liquor licenses, poolrooms, alleys, ball games on Sunday, bands with dice shaking, and to the would-be saint reformers things should all have a touch wave of reform now sweeping the land. All wineries, and in liquor dealers doing business in city, in my judgment, should uniform license. That is, if the city wants revenue, and fair dealing. If the city has the right to put a license of $10 per month upon wineries, it certainly has the right to tax them higher, say $50. If not, the city has done the wineries an injustice by collecting the $10 now exacted from them. I would suggest that this latter, as it appears to me, be placed on the ballots for an expression from the people. At the next city election four trustees go out. Let all good citizens see that none but good men and true be put in their place. N. HART. A 1 Baled Barley Hay for sale. $10 per ton. Apply to B. Fisher, Loara, or inquire at this office.
