POSTOFFICES AND POST ROADS The house committee on post-offices and post roads has just completed the appropriation bill that will feed the mail service of the United States for the coming year. The bill is one of the biggest and most important appropriation bills of the session, carrying as it does an appropriation of more than $191,000,000. This is greater even than the pension bill and is one out of which the general public will get vastly more service if not satisfaction. The appropriation as outlined cuts under the estimates of the department, but it is figured by the committee that it is so framed as to largely reduce the rapidly growing deficit in the department. If the increase of mail keeps up in the ratio that has held good in past years, the deficit of the service will be reduced from The appropriation as outlined cuts under the estimates of the department, but it is figured by the committee that it is so framed as to largely reduce the rapidly growing deficit in the department. If the increase of mail keeps up in the ratio that has held good in past years, the deficit of the service will be reduced from over $14,500,000 to less than $10,-000,000. The committee has been decently generous in the provision for the rural free delivery service, alloting $28,200,000 for this work, an increase of $3,080,000 over the appropriation for the coming year. Considering the fact that the extension of the rural free delivery service has done more than almost anything else except the telephone to make life in the country not only endurable but pleasant and has helped to stem the rush of the country population to the cities, this item may be considered a judicious expenditure. There has not been a very large, but still reasonable increase in the pay of the lower grade clerks. An appropriation has been made to arbitrarily raise the salaries of 5000 of them in the grades ranging from $600 to $1000. This may not be considered as pure philanthropy either as it was found that some addition to this low range of salaries was necessary to keep desirable men in the service. The franking privilege has not been entirely cut off as recommended in Postmaster General Cortelyou's last report; but the sort of articles franked has been much restricted and there is no longer any likelihood of a new member coming to Washington and franking all his furniture and kitchen utensils from his home town. Provision has been made for been entirely cut off as recommended in Postmaster General Cortelyou's last report; but the sort of articles franked has been much restricted and there is no longer any likelihood of a new member coming to Washington and franking all his furniture and kitchen utensils from his home town. Provision has been made for more rigidly inspecting the mails to see that the railroads do not get more than is coming to them on the transportation of second class matter, and all provisions seem to have been made to insure smooth working of the great system without undue extravagance. The general features of the bill seem to be good, and the department is one that is so closely in touch with the public that any reasonable expenditure for its maintenance can hardly be grasped. STATE POLITICS Word comes from the north that the Republican politicians of that section will be unable to agree on a candidate for governor. The appearance of Congressman Gillett as a candidate has been the signal not only for half a dozen men to aspire to his place, but for E. B. Edson, the Marysville cattleman, to announce himself for the gov- The Santa Ana Register has a new editor, and he's a dandy. Paper in its issue of Thursday evening last prints several columns of news taken from our column without credit, and palmed off on its readers as specially warded to that paper from city. If the Register has no excuse for existence than this, fering of news from others and deception it practices upon readers in offering it as original matter, it has very little excuse existence indeed. The new comes from Fresno. We disagree absolutely with Chapman in at least one of the contentions, that regarding the license. High license, he argues a mistake, and the higher the cense the more difficult it will found in the end to eradicate saloon. Reasoning by analogy Dr. Chapman had rather have five teen saloons here, each paying monthly license fee of $25, than seven we have, at $50 per month. His ideas may sound well to school of prohibitionists andpective saloonkeepers alike, but us his notions have the earmark being radically wrong. Of course Dr. Edson's candidacy divide north and jeopardizes chances. His with Hayes of Santa His candidacy is antagonWarren Porter, the Santa Maker.

Estee, has defeated by a handarity. Again in 1898 ulted in the nomination man, Henry T. Gage. Dr. Chapman means to close the saloons in the end, much as he would lower the license and increase the number at the present time. But our solution of the problem is high license and limitation of the number of drinking places; not an increase of their number now, and a litter of blind pigs in the end. Dr. Chapman put the kibosh upon District Attorney Head when he characterized that official as "sneaking out" of his ante-election pledges to suppress illicit liquor sales. Mr. Head must know of the existence of these places throughout the county, yet he declines to proceed against them because, as he says, he "has no evidence" concerning them. Dr. Chapman rightfully takes the position that it is not the business of the temperance people to secure evidence against these violators of the law, but that it is up to the district attorney to procure it. What the reverend gentleman said of the district attorney might with equal propriety be said of the marshal of this city, who, knowing of the existence of blind pigs here, refuses to proceed against them because he "has no evidence." What is a peace officer for? Must the people pay him his salary, and then run his office for him beside? Why are not the blind pigs in Anaheim proceeded against? How about it?

Why charge saloonkeepers a monthly license fee of $50, and permit others to dispense liquors without a license? Fraternal Aiders in Session The district convention of the Fraternal Aid association met at Odd Fellows' hall in this city yesterday. The district comprises the counties of Orange, Los Angeles, San Bernardino, Riverside and San Diego. An attendance of delegates was present from various towns in Orange and other counties. The morning and afternoon sessions were devoted to business of a fraternal order. In the evening the delegates sat down to an elaborate banquet. REO ALWAYS WINS Reo cars not only show the winning speed and power which keep them at the head of their class in every racing and climbing contest they enter; but their remarkable convenience and practicality exactly meet common-sense requirements and make speed and power worth while. Those were REO cars that captured five out of seven prizes in the National six day economy test. It was a Reo that broke the middle-weight speed record, on the Syracuse race-track—a REO that lowered its class record 23 minutes in the "Climb to the Clouds" up Mount Washington, and a REO that won three cups in one day on Paddock Hill, Cincinnati—beating all twenty competitors: eight of them having nearly double its rating and price. In the recent Economy Test in New York city, the REO Runabout carrying 4 passengers easily defeated all cars listing up to $1500 00, for ECONOMY OF OPERATION. Carrying four passengers 682 miles at a total cost per passenger of less than 1 cent per mile, which includes toll, ferryage, repairs and incidentals of this kind. This Model also took the MacMurty Medal for Least Ignition trouble in competition with all cars entered. The REO having no trouble whatever. Ana Register has a dandy.
