WORK OF SPECIAL SESSION The extraordinary session of the California legislature adjourned on Saturday afternoon, after having been in session since the preceding Tuesday. The special session for which the legislators were called together by Gov. Gillett ended at noon on Saturday, when a supplementary session was immediately called to approve amendments to the San Francisco charter. The work of the session was brought to conclusion before evening, and many members departed for their homes on the night train out of the capital. The most important measure enacted into law was the tax delinquency bill, extending time of payment of taxes until the last Monday in January, thus affording sixty-three days of respite. Next in importance to the state, is the passage of a bill amending section 135 of the code of civil procedure, to provide that "on all special holidays the courts of this state shall be open for the transaction of any west and south, where it will able the movement of the city go on without serious interruptions." And there is every reason to believe that the issuance of bonds and certificates will normal conditions of order confidence in the business and ancillary circles and will reassure people of the country as sound condition of our treasured president has promised "the government will see the people do not suffer, if only people themselves will act normally way," and these measures of relief should inspire concern in the sound business conections and resources of this country restore an equilibrium that cause the people to "help ourselves and the country more putting back into active circulation the money they are hoarding." Conserving the Nation's Resilience President Roosevelt should support the support of all earnest-minded people throughout the nation in his efforts to conserve the resources of these United States is, in his estimation, the gravest tion before the nation today. End he has invited the governor states and the members of the waterways commission to meet White House in May next for a session of the subject, and we hope they will speedily concur in that of the president that "it is the duty of those of us who for the most are responsible, to make inventive natural resources which have handed down to us, to forecast as we may the needs of the future so to handle the great sources." ment of taxes until the last Monday in January, thus affording sixty-three days of respite. Next in importance to the state, is the passage of a bill amending section 135 of the code of civil procedure, to provide that "on all special holidays the courts of this state shall be open for the transaction of any and all judicial business, except trial of an action, or the rendition of a judgment upon a contract, expressed or implied, for the direct payment of money." Another notable piece of legislation is the appointment of a legislative commission to investigate the banks, banking methods, and banking laws. This measure was warmly opposed, but its advocates carried the day, after a heated argument. It was stated by those contesting the proposal, that the movement was inadvisable, and was calculated to destroy confidence. This was ably refuted by a number of solons, who maintained that no honest bank need fear investigation, properly holding that a committee, which did its duty, would help to restore confidence, rather than the contrary. The amendment instructing the state bank commission to do what the special legislative committee is authorized to do was disregarded, the legislature, evidently, having no confidence in the commission. It is well for the honor of the state that the efforts of a few San Francisco legislators to refuse to approve the $17,000 indebtedness to the national guard, for services rendered during the San Francisco strike, failed. The legislature, as a whole, declined to cast such a slur on the commonwealth as the denial of a justly-incurred obligation would have meant. The public does not realize tent of the destruction that has going on for years, except, perhaps those sections of the country whose waste of certain resources was apparent. In the middle west, stance, the supply of natural exhausted, simply because can not exercised to conserve the And while the coal fields in Missouri, Illinois and Kentucky not depleted, the people are from ten to fifteen per cent more they should, and all because the supply has not been properly cared.

CURRENCY SITUATION President Roosevelt has met the currency situation with his usual forethought and promptness and by his approval of the plan of the Secretary of the Treasury to issue fifty millions of Panama canal bonds and one hundred millions of three per cent certificates has abated a money stringency that threatened disaster to the financial world. The Panama bonds will bring a premium, beyond all doubt, as they may and will be used as a basis of additional circulation by national banks, and they will be disposed of to the highest bidders. But the greatest need to relieve the strain was more circulating medium, and this demand the certificates of indebtedness will supply. The influence of this relief, which comes at such an opportune time, will be felt more decidedly in the Celery Growers Santa Ana, Nov. 26.—W.

Taft Will Hurry Home The expectation is that Secretary Taft will journey direct to Hamburg from St. Petersburg, and sail for New York on December 7, on board the President Grant, thus avoiding what might have been an international broil. In our innocence we had supposed that one of our officials could, with perfect propriety, stop over in his journey across the continent, and unofficially exchange greetings with an emperor or a king. But it seems that this is not the case, as by so doing he will excite the jealousy and suspicion of the rulers of the various countries before whose courts he neglects to make his kow tow. We have always supposed that we had a fair appreciation of our own importance as a world power, but we have apparently wholly underestimated that importance and from now on we will be called upon to pay the penalty of greatness by considering the acts of our official when they relate even remotely and unofficially to foreign powers, from the viewpoint of foreigners. Secretary Taft will return to the United States without having trod on the toes of any supersensitive or over-suspicious potentate, and Ambassador Jusserand, at least, will sleep better because of his return.
