WHAT'S DOING IN POLITICS IMPORTANCE OF DIRECT PRIMARY AMENDMENT Delegate Conventions Have Been the Easily Manipulated Agencies of the Special Interests—Machine Will be Lined up Against It—The Taxation Amendment Should Be Defeated The people of California will have an opportunity to vote for their political emancipation on November 3d. They will have the opportunity to ratify the proposed constitutional amendment which lays upon the ensuing legislature the duty of enacting a direct primary election law. That amendment is designated assembly constitutional amendment No. 3, and will be the first proposition in the last column on the ballot. The delegate conventions which have disgraced the political history of California have been the easily manipulated agencies of the special interests which determined the personnel of those conventions. California has been and is one of the most shamefully boss ridden states in the union. Throughout the United States California has shared with Pennsylvania the odium of being pointed out as the worst sink holes of corrupt political machine domination and perversion of the theory and practice of popular government. To quiet the mutterings of a sorely outraged public and fend off the threatened political disaster the master politicians of California promised the people two years ago that they should have a direct primary elect officials have buried the area so that it appears tenth in Futhermore, there is nothing ever to signify that the area has anything more to do with direct primary than with the plague. Here is the way the act will appear on the ballot, unensure is brought to bear upon retary of state to compel him it more prominence: Assembly Constitutional Amendment No. 3 Chapter 19, Assembly Constitution Amendment No. 3: Resolution amend Section 2½ of Article 7 of the Constitution. Only the title of the amended print. There is nothing to indicate its purpose. The treatment of this act is in marked contrast to the ed amendment No. 14. The amendment provides for an in salaries for state officers for that reason considered secretary of state (who would, of course, be raised) important amendment. He places it second in the list teen amendments. And to that it will not be overlooked in the shuffle, he has added to the title: "Relating to pensions of state officers" Political conditions in Yafford an object lesson for restriction of republicans in the state. They well deser tative consideration. Capt. B. B. Tuttle, a member of the highest character, renomination for assemblyman a prominent member of the Roosevelt league, and then posed to government of the California by the Southern To quiet the mutterings of a sorely outraged public and fend off the threatened political disaster the master politicians of California promised the people two years ago that they should have a direct primary election law. To secure the meager protection offered by legalized intermediary primary elections the people of California had been compelled to write the delegate convention system into their organic law. The bosses knew their promises were empty when they made them. They knew that until the constitution should be amended, no direct primary legislation which would stand the tests of the courts could be enacted. They promised direct primaries and promptly began a bitter fight against the submission of a direct primary constitutional amendment. The people overcame the machine opposition. They forced the submission of assembly constitutional amendment No. 3, which not only makes it possible for the legislature to redeem the platform pledges of all the great parties, but provides further that the legislature shall enact direct primary legislation. To the delegate convention system is properly ascribed most of the political ills from which the people of California have suffered so sorely. Popular ratification of assembly constitutional amendment No. 3 will clear the way for the elimination of the delegate convention from the political system of this state. The bosses are fighting assembly constitutional amendment No. 3 by indirection. They have no hope of getting more than the "push" vote against it. By assuring the people that the amendment will surely be ratified, that there is no opposition, they hope to insure only a light vote on that amendment. If their hopes are realized they will plead that light vote as conclusive proof of popular opposition to direct primaries when the people demand a direct primary Political conditions in Yolo afford an object lesson for destruction of republicans in the state. They well deserved attentive consideration. Capt. B. B. Tuttle, a member of the highest character, renomination for assemblyman, a prominent member of the Roosevelt league, and then posed to government of the California by the Southern railroad. Being opposed to the railroad, he is, inevitably, oppose re-election of Mr. George Perkins as all intelligent men know. Perkins has become unfit as aator from the state of California. The leading Republican Yolo county is the Mail. Owners, by grace of Senate, is postmaster at Woodland edits the Mail. Should he be re-elected, the editor may the postmaster and then may become the editor. A profitable partnership, wives as the tutelary genius interests of the railroad must situting the tie that binds. The pap-fed Mail has nomination of Captain Tu assembly, although Californias is the duly nominated canon republican party. The consented deserves serious objection from republicans throughout and we trust that the republican newspapers will see that the question consideration. If the machine is at lit legislative nominees who be members of the Lincoln-league, upon what, asks do its leaders base their support of Lincoln-Rooseville republicans for its own We present the question way of menace or to thou but in earnest search of If it is proper to fight in Yolo county of a candidate assembly because he is the re-election of post Perkins,would it be important Angeles county to oppose They have no hope of getting more than the "push" vote against it. By assuring the people that the amendment will surely be ratified, that there is no opposition, they hope to insure only a light vote on that amendment. If their hopes are realized they will plead that light vote as conclusive proof of popular opposition to direct primaries when the people demand a direct primary law from the next legislature. It is the duty of every California elector who believes in representative government and in the abolition of the iniquitous delegate convention to back up the mandatory clause of assembly constitutional amendment No. 3 with his vote on Nov. 3. It is becoming more apparent as election day approaches that the machine element in the state will be lined up against the direct primary amendment. There will be no open attack. On the contrary, the scheme is, in the opinion of the Los Angeles Express, to ignore the amendment at all meetings of the campaign and trust to the general apathy of the voters to defeat it. During the last few days of the campaign word will be silently passed around among the "push" element to vote "No," and the belief is that enough negative votes will be cast in this way to insure the defeat of the amendment. To make it as difficult as possible for the honest voters to find which of the seventeen propositions on the ballot the direct primary amendments really is, the state of support of Lincoln-Roosevelt republicans for its own We present the question way of menace or to be but in earnest search of If it is proper to fight in Yolo county of a candidate because he is the re-election of post Perkins, would it be important Angeles county to oppose for the assembly who fled election of Perkins? It for the machine to bolster of a member of Roosevelt league in one right for republicans nomination of a creature chine in another county understand that when wins, it is the sacred day publicans to support but that when the machine is the high privilege of lowers to bolt the nomination? The campaign begins stage when an authority to these inquiries would valued by thousands of publicans who look with apprehension upon tions as issue from Yolochine right? Is it republican? The commission on taxation proposes that we take a leap in the dark radical change in the rule system. It is a damnment, unless it can be shown to be of importance and undoubted expect carefully weighing th have buried the amendment that appears tenth in the list. Here, there is nothing whatignify that the amendment being more to do with the diary than with the bubonic virus the way the amendment bear on the ballot, unless pres-sought to bear upon the sec-ret state to compel him to give prominence: Constitutional Amendment No. 3 Assembly Constitutional Act No. 3: Resolution to section 2½ of Article 2 of legislation The title of the amendment is "There is nothing whatever its purpose." Treatment of this amendment looked contrast to that accord-ment No. 14. This latter amendment provides for an increase taxes for state officials. It is not reason considered by the state of state (whose salary course, be raised) as a very tight amendment. Hence, he second in the list of seven amendments. And to make sure will not be overlooked or lost shuffle, he has added this key title: "Relating to the com-mun of state officers." Real conditions in Yolo county on object lesson for the indi-ance of republicans throughout the state. They well deserve most consideration. B. B. Tuttle, a republican highest character, received the nomination for assemblyman. He is member of the Lincoln-nitt league, and therefore opposes government of the state of California by the Southern Pacific. Propounded on both sides The Call is compelled to the conclusion that the proposed constitutional amendment is unwise. The amendment, in brief, proposes to raise the revenue needed for support of the state government by a fixed tax on corporations, calculated in most instances as a percentage on the gross annual receipts. Prof. Carl C. Plehn of the University of California was a member of the commission and may be regarded as the chief proponent of argument in favor of the amendment. As far as we have seen, Professor Plehn has offered no figures which show that the corporation tax would pay a sufficient revenue to meet the expenses of the state. Indeed, there is reason to believe that the sum of the corporation tax would fall short and that the balance must be raised by a general property tax. Should we make the change with this result, our last condition would be worse than the first. The corporation tax is to be assessed as a percentage on gross receipts. That might seem to be a simple matter of arithmetic, as Professor Plehn says; but, in fact, the intricacies of corporation book keeping are often confusing and difficult. Sometimes they are even dishonest, although, perhaps, not as often as there appears to be a disposition to believe. If such disposition exists the corporations have themselves to thank. They are so notoriously and obviously dishonest in many things that they are distrusted in all. As far as the assessment of steam railroads is concerned, the amendment would make no important change, because it has been the policy of the state board of equalization. GRAPE CULTURE IN CHINA Offers Profitable Return Invested—Experiment The growing of grapes dustries based thereon a cullar sense Californian produces, approximately three quarters of them a large share of the ship of the United States.

The very attractiveness and the peculiar California for its devolve dangers which need if we are to reap them from our advantages. proportion of our new local conditions in Yolo county an object lesson for the invention of republicans throughout the state. They well deserve most consideration. B. B. Tuttle, a republican highest character, received the nom for assemblyman. He is ment member of the Lincolnnit league, and therefore opposed to government of the state of California by the Southern Pacific Being opposed to governny the railroad, for the railroad is, inevitably, opposed to the union of Mr. George Perkins to United States senate. He knows, intelligent men know, that Mr. Perkins has become unfit to be a senmur the state of California. The leading republican paper of county is the Mail. One of its work by grace of Senator Perkins, master at Woodland. The other the Mail. Should Mr. Perkins selected, the editor may become postmaster and the postmaster come the editor. A pretty and stable partnership, with Mr.Perkins the tutelary genius and the hus of the railroad machine congling the tie that binds. Pap-fed Mail has bolted the edition of Captain Tuttle for the only, although Captain Tuttle only nominated candidate of the can party. The condition predeserves serious consideration republicans throughout the state we trust that the progressive American newspapers of California see that the question receives operation.

It is urged against the amendment, and the argument is valid, that the proposed plan would relieve the corporations from all burden for the extensive local improvements and projects to be carried out by the issue of bonds. This, in the opinion of the Call, is a very important matter, which is certain to make a rapidly growing factor in the institutional life of the state and the municipalities. Great projects are in hand or proposed for water supply, for good roads and for other forms of public service. The Call does not favor municipal ownership of public utilities as a general proposition, except for water supply, but this amendment would, in practice, shut off all advance in that direction. The state would need the money raised by taxation of the water companies. The amendment would make a permanent fixture of the Spring valley water company and the Contra Costa water company or its successors. Apart from this check to the movement for municipal water supply, there is no good reason why corporations, as a whole, should be relieved from their share of the cost of large public improvements. The future that opens up to view in this field makes it certain that tax payers in cities will be compelled for many years to come to meet special tax, amounting to probably 20 cents on every taxable $100, to pay the interest and principal of bonds. The corporations ought not to be relieved from that burden. There appears to be a disposition to believe. If such disposition exists the corporations have themselves to thank.

If it is right the machine to bolt the nomination of a member of the Lincolnnervelt league in one county, is not for republicans to bolt the creation of a creature of the makin another county? Are we to stand that when the machine it is the sacred duty of all reasons to support its nominees, that when the machine loses, it is high privilege of all its folls to bolt the party and the revision? The campaign begins to reach a point when an authoritative answer the inquiries would be greatly ful by thousands of sincere recans who look with amazement apprehension upon such revelations issue from Yolo. Is the maright? Is it republican to bolt? The commission on revenue and action proposes that the state shall leap in the dark by making a final change in the present revensystem. It is a dangerous experiment unless it can be conclusively to be of imperative need undoubted expediency. After fully weighing the arguments from their share of the cost of large public improvements. The future that opens up to view in this field makes it certain that tax payers in cities will be compelled for many years to come to meet special tax, amounting to probably 20 cents on every taxable $100, to pay the interest and principal of bonds. The corporations ought not to be relieved from that burden. The method of taxation laid down in the amendment for banks is to assess the capital stock at its par value, plus the surplus prorated on each share. There is something to be said for this scheme, but it presents difficulties. The capital of a bank bears only a slight relation to its business. Some banks have no capital and are purely mutual enterprises. The effect of the amendment would be to put a premium on reductions of capital and surplus,and that must weaken the banks. We admit that this is a very difficult subject and that the present system is not satisfactory. The amendment permits a complicated system of license taxation to eke out the revenue raised from the corporation tax. The inclusion of this feature appears to be an admission that the corporation tax would be insufficient to meet the sum needed for state purposes. Altogether, the plan proposed appears to be so doubtful an experiment that, while conceding the amount of labor, pains and intelligence given to its formulation, The Call feels constrained to advise against its adoption. gard conducted this wiggle-handed, and, as in departments of agriculture solid foundations we tributed so much to that of our cultural methods to 1894 the Viticulture did much to instruct ciders and wine-makers and practice of their Since 1894 the only California—in fact, States—which has givenention to viticulture Agricultural College Station of the University.

California grapes, approximately, all the raissee quarters of the wine, and the share of the shipping grapes in the United States. These industries have increased importance with a steady and easy growth during the last thirty-forty years, and during the last years the increase has been about four cent. The new plantations have been particularly numerous and active during the last five years. Present there are over 200,000 acres of vineyard in the state, and prospects of continued expansion favorable. The growing of grapes has many practical and sentimental attractions for capitalists and small farmers. No other branch of agriculture is more certainty of steady, profitable returns for invested capital; one offers superior inducements to the owner of a few acres of land; he effort to make a pleasant and stable living by his own labor. There is very little of the arable of California which is not capable of producing abundant crops of grapes, and the future output is limited only by the demand extent of the market. The very attractiveness of viticulture and the peculiar suitability of California for its development in dangers which must be avoided we are to reap the best results from our advantages. A very large portion of our new arrivals and a considerable amount of progress has been made. Besides the work of investigation carried out under the provisions of the bill passed by the last Legislature, the regular viticultural work of the University has been carried on. This work is, in the main part, educational. It consists of courses in grape-growing and wine-making to regular students, and short courses in the same subjects to special students. Short courses and viticultural institutes have also been given, so far as our time and resources have allowed, for the benefit of those actually employed in the industry. The short courses at Berkeley to grape-growers and wine-makers actively engaged in the occupations have not been a success, owing to the small number who have been able to leave their work long enough to attend them. The special viticultural institutes, on the other hand, have met with a success that is very encouraging. These institutes are given, so far as possible, in any viticultural center wherever a sufficient demand is manifested and the traveling expenses of speakers is borne by the Farmers' Institute appropriation. They last either one or two days, usually Saturday, or Friday and Saturday. They are only confined strictly to viticulture, but attempt to treat only one particular part of this subject. The part chosen is, so far as practicable, one of actual interest at the season when the institute takes place. The plan adopted is to accompany the lectures by practical demonstration in the vineyard. Two or three hours in the morning are usually all that are devoted to lectures. The afternoon is spent in the vineyards, where the ideas developed in the lec- of producing abundant crops of viticulture and the peculiar suitability of California for its development in dangers which must be avoided; we are to reap the best results on our advantages. A very large portion of our new arrivals and others engage in some branch of viticulture. Most of them have knowledge of the business or have conceived ideas which are incompatible with our conditions. These situations are so different from those in eastern states, and even from one of most of the grape-growing zones of Europe, that grape-growers from New York, Bordeaux, Burray or the Rhingau often fail to gain better results than those who had no previous practical experience in cultivating the vine. The spite of California's superb adages as a grape-growing region, statistics show that our average crop acre is considerably less than that of Algeria or many parts of the south of France, and is hardly superior to that of Burgundy or the Rhine. On the other hand, the crops our best vineyards, vineyards which are handled properly, with due regard to our special conditions, are excelled anywhere in the world. Two things, therefore, are urgent-needed. First, the diffusion of special viticultural and enological knowledge, and second, the scientific and practical investigation of our singular problems. Since 1876 the cultural college at Berkeley has given more or less attention to the task of instruction and research in culture. At first Prof. E. W. Hill conducted this work almost sinch-handed, and, as in so many other departments of agriculture, laid the foundations which have constituted so much to the improvement of cultural methods.

A plot of ground will be secured near the business center where farmers may bring their fruits, vegetables, livestock and produce of all kinds which they wish to sell. The day will be advertised by the association, helping to bring buyers and sellers together. Another feature will be bargain sales by all merchants on market days. Messrs. Herman Stern, Fritz Yungbluth and W. P. Quarton were appointed a committee to secure a location for the market and arrange other details. Paving a section of the business streets was discussed and met with such favor that Messrs. W. P. Quarton, L. E. Miller and F. C. Spencer were appointed a committee to join with the Chamber of Commerce in farthering the proposition. A committee composed of the same parties was appointed to confer with the City Council and ask that body to fix street crossings in the business district before the rainy season sets in. At the conclusion of business an adjournment was taken to Huernmeyer’s cafe where an elaborate banquet composed of all of the delicacies of the season was discussed and a pleasant social time had. L.
