Proposed Bonds Defeated From the Orange Post In the Santa Ana bond election last Friday none of the three classes of bonds—for public schools, high school, and streets—carried. The public school bonds received 370 votes for and 251 against; the high school 345 for and 268 against; the street 336 for and 278 against. Of the three classes, the street bonds fell the farthest behind. Now if a city will not vote bonds when all the proceeds would be spent on its own streets, which it must keep up anyway, how can the good roads bonding advocates expect such city to vote bonds when all the proceeds would be spent on roads outside its boundaries? It will not; neither will the other cities; nor will the country districts. The good roads bonding scheme "died aborning;" let the county save its election expenses. In Darkest Riverside Deacon Clarke in the Press Orange county, like Riverside, is moving in the matter of a bond election for good roads. Petitions will be put in circulation at once and the sentiment in favor of bonds seems to be growing steadily. Savage Act Unconstitutional? Superior Judge Hughes of Sacramento county has given it as his personal opinion that the Savage paved-roads act is unconstitutional. The judge in a recent interview pointed to the supreme court decision, in the case of the Folsom model highway from Sacramento toward that penitentiary, that the people of a city cannot be taxed for roads outside the city. When Savage Act Unconstitutional? Superior Judge Hughes of Sacramento county has given it as his personal opinion that the Savage paved roads act is unconstitutional. The judge in a recent interview pointed to the supreme court decision, in the case of the Folsom model highway from Sacramento toward that penitentiary, that the people of a city cannot be taxed for roads outside the city. When reminded that there was no law at the time the highest court made its ruling, he replied: "It is true that the legislature lately has attempted to supply the want of legislation to make proper executory the provisions of the constitution on this subject, but it has failed to do so." Attorney James B. Devine said: "I am in full accord with Judge Hughes in this matter. I have been studiously examining this subject for some time, and I have been unable to discover a letter or line of law to justify such a bond issue as is proposed for road or bridges." Judge K. M. Landis of Chicago, who is just in process of deciding how big a fine the Standard Oil company can stand without being absolutely put out of business, is not a native Washingtonian, but he is well known in the capital from the fact that he was private secretary to Walter Gresham when the latter was secretary of state under Cleveland. The "K. M." in front of his surname stands for the rather unusual christening names of "Kenesaw Mountain." It happened that little Landis was born on the day of that famous battle in which his father participated. The baby was named for the battlefield. While private secretary to Gresham, young Landis ran the state department single-handed a good many times, for his chief was often ill toward the end of his term. But one of the dry remarks of his chief that Judge Landis is fond of quoting was made when the two of them first came to Washington. They were stopping at a hotel, but were anxiously looking for a house. The secretary of state verbally during a talk at the department. Thus the answer technically correct in saying subject has never been judged him. It has not been presented official sense of the term—sioned in the popular under the word. Thus close can a falsehood in official language not be convicted of perjury if a newspaper man said that of a thing, it would be a plague. It is understood that they be more fully discussed with tary Root visits President Mexico this autumn. The vision in the Mexican against alienating any term if President Diaz and Roosevelt are both agreed good thing to do, there is that a way will be found to Irrigated Land Projection at the exposition for connection with the national irrigation congrregation in September will attractive display from outlook.

There has been a firm official denial issued to the story that this government is negotiating with Mexico for the purchase of Magdalena bay as a naval station. The denial might be more convincing if there had not been so many official denials lately that turned out to be untrue. In this particular case, it may never be proved that the denial was untrue, because it is a delicate piece of negotiation, that if it fails, will in all probability never become public property. But this is the situation up to date. Landis ran the state department single-handed a good many times, for his chief was often ill toward the end of his term. But one of the dry remarks of his chief that Judge Landis is fond of quoting was made when the two of them first came to Washington. They were stopping at a hotel, but were anxiously looking for a house. The secretary of state had to have a house for purposes of official entertainment, whether he wanted to be saddled with one or not. They had looked all day, and in the evening had settled on the only really available and desirable one. It cost $7500 a year. A cabinet officer’s salary at that time was $8000. Judge Gresham was lying on the sofa smoking after dinner, as was his custom. After a long silence, he appealed to his secretary. “Say, Landis, it has just occurred to me, what in the devil are we going to do with that other $500?” There has been a firm official denial issued to the story that this government is negotiating with Mexico for the purchase of Magdalena bay as a naval station. The denial might be more convincing if there had not been so many official denials lately that turned out to be untrue. In this particular case, it may never be proved that the denial was untrue, because it is a delicate piece of negotiation, that if it fails, will in all probability never become public property. But this is the situation up to date. When the whence the streams and are protected by forest ceil and snow are protected from rays of the sun, much of slowly absorbed by the easterly freshets are unforest covering is removed of man, and nothing now full force of the falling rain ing snow from rushing down courses in a race for the results are excessive floods, loss of life and proper of salt and gravel carried igable rivers, blocking the and Nature laughs a heart her revenge.

Times thought to set down the arts that shall perish shall be no more wood, but written down a great nu-perceive that there could my writing, and having dis-sidered, I found there which could be follow-wood.” The same is true Protects California Birds Section 637a of the Penal Code has been so amended as to give protection to all wild birds, excepting only the following: The Cooper's hawk, the Sharp-shinned hawk, the Duck hawk, the Great Horned owl, the blue jay, the shrike, the California lionet and the English sparrow. Any person who in the state of California "shall at any time, hunt, shoot, shoot at, pursue, take, kill or destroy, buy sell, give away, or have in his possession, except upon a written permit from the State Board of Fish Commissioners, for the purpose of propagation, or for educational or scientific purposes, any wild bird, living or dead, or any part of any dead wild bird (except those above named as being excluded from protection), or who shall rob the nest, or take, sell or offer for sale, or destroy the eggs of any wild bird, other than those above mentioned, is guilty of a misdemeanor," and is liable to a heavy fine and imprisonment. Game birds are not included under this head, but are protected, and their nests and eggs, under other sections of the penal code. All our sparrows are in the protected list and must not be mistaken for English sparrows. Bird students wishing to make collections of wild birds for educational or scientific purposes must first procure a permit from the State Board of Fish Commissioners at San Francisco, but only a limited number of such permits will be issued, and these for only a limited number of specimens, and those applying therefor must be properly recommended. Special attention is called to the fact that the California Condor, all the eagles, the sea birds, the turkey buzzard or vulture, and all the hawks but the three named as being excluded are now protected. Under the provisions of this law, keepers of bird stores, or other persons, Herrigated Land Products A stated land products for exhibiting the exposition for this purpose connection with the forthcoming Irrigation congress at Sacramento September will make a most have display from the present State societies and individ- many sections are taking a live-test, and promise to have a fine exhibit and compete warmly in large lists of trophies which been hung up in this connection.

We do not realize that every such liberty taken, nature provide some form of revenge in to teach us that, clever as we are, we improve on some of nature's sins, but we cannot entirely change sins with impunity. The slaughter forests is one example of this tale. When the hills, from the streams and rivers flow, protected by forest covering, rain now are protected from the direct sun, much of the water is absorbed by the earth, and de- freshets are unknown. The Special attention is called to the fact that the California Condor, all the eagles, the sea birds, the turkey buzzard or vulture, and all the hawks but the three named as being excluded are now protected. Under the provisions of this law, keepers of bird stores, or other persons must not buy, sell or offer for sale, mocking birds or other native wild birds. Those who have native birds in captivity for study or propagation must procure a permit from the state fish commission. Swans, pheasants, bob-white, and other imported quails or partridges are protected at all times. The bag limit on doves is reduced to 25 birds and these birds must not be sold or offered for sale. The open season for hunting deer has been reduced and only two male deer may be taken in one season. A number of counties have still further reduced the open seasons for deer, dove and quail. The use of any snare or trap, or poisonous substance in catching wild game or birds is a misdemeanor. Severe penalties are imposed for taking the eggs of quails or other game birds. The minimum fine for killing does and fawns is now $50. The killing of an Elk is a felony. Snipe and other shore birds have a closed season, and are on the no-sale list. In nearly all of the coast counties seals, seabirds and seabirds are protected by local ordinances and must not be killed or injured. Permits for taking game birds for study or propagation are not issued in the closed season. The meadow lark and robin are specially named as being protected as non-game birds. Special attention is called to the fact that wild birds must not be trapped or the young taken from the nests without a permit from the state commissioners. No permits will be issued for the taking of the California condor or its eggs. As this species is almost extinct the time has come for energetic meas- to teach us that, clever as we are, we improve on some of nature's wishes, but we cannot entirely change nests with impunity. The slaughthe forests is one example of this tale. When the hills, from the streams and rivers flow, protected by forest covering, rain are protected from the direct the sun, much of the water is absorbed by the earth, and defive freshets are unknown. The covering is removed by the hand and nothing now prevents the race of the falling rain and meltnow from rushing down the waterin a race for the ocean. The rare excessive floods and freshness of life and property, and tons and gravel carried into the navirivers, blocking their channels, nature laughs a hearty laugh at enge. hundred years ago there lived once one Bernard Palissy, famous story as the "Potter of the Tuilly who in addition to the manuer of excellent pottery, was a noted pher and writer. Many of his works deal with the woods and fordied in one of his books he sagely descries: "For when the forests shall shall arts shall cease, and they practice them shall be driven out of grass with Nebuchadnezzar and casts of the field. I have divers thought to set down in writings that shall perish when there be no more wood, but when I had down a great number, I did know that there could be no end of writing, and having diligently conducted it, I found there was not any could be followed without The same is true today. The meadow lark and robin are specially named as being protected as nongame birds. Special attention is called to the fact that wild birds must not be trapped or the young taken from the nests without a permit from the state commissioners. No permits will be issued for the taking of the California condor or its eggs. As this species is almost extinct the time has come for energetic measures to prevent its total destruction. All persons must have a hunting license, issued by the state, to legally kill wild game in California, on other than their own lands. Teachers should endeavor to impress the substance of this leaflet upon their pupils, in order that they may fully understand that legal bird killing and egg collecting, as it has been done in the past, is now at an end in California and that the Audubon society will prosecute all violations of the bird and game laws that come to its notice. The interest and co-operation of farmers' organizations, humane societies, women's clubs, game protective associations and individuals toward preventing the further destruction of our wild birds and in protecting the wild game in the closed seasons, is urgently solicited. Notify your nearest game warden regarding violations, or address Audubon Society of California, W. Scott Way secretary, Glendora, California. Lock box 62.
