The bill making it a misdemeanor to misrepresent the circulation of a news paper is to be commended and should be come a law. No one will contend that by legisla tion a man can be made honest, but he can be made to fear, and can be punished for dishonesty. Newspaper publishers by the very nature of their business call for certain public trust to be reposed in them. They secure private and official patronage upon the basis of their client age of readers. When, therefore, they secure support for their journal by false representations, they obtain money by fraud, and ought to be held accountable before the law for the cheat. It is not the purpose of the proposed law to compel any publisher to disclose his private business; but it is the thought of the bill that if he makes disclosure he shall do so in accordance with truth. It is said that the measure is in the interest of great, and opposed to the interest of the papers of small circulation. Bui that is gross error—the bill is in the interest of the public, which is always superior in its rights to the individual. Tlie journal of large or small circula tion has no right beyond the truth cou corning that circulation. When a paper opposes truth-telling it confesses that it is not above lying. In tho matter of the publication of oflieial advertisements, where the object is to secure wide circula tion of the matter published, it is of vital importance that there shall be no deceit concerning circulation. The mere matter of newspaper rivalry nnd jealousy in no wiso concerns the public. But it is concerned in knowing that the avenue it chooses for its an- nouneements is precisely what is claimed for it. If it is represented that it is a broad and long highway, cutting through a great number of sections and traveled by a multitude, and it turns out that it is only a by-path, short, tortuous and little used, the public is cheated, and the cheat should be punished as are other frauds. The advertising public is entitled to pro tection, the newspaper man can protect himself. He certainly has no right to ask the law by quiesence to aid him in defrauding the public. If a business man advertises in a news paper upon the representation that it lias some thousands of subscribers or regular recipients, and in fact it lias but a few hundred, he is grossly imposed upon, and the fact that the iinpostcr owns types and presses in no wise mitigates the oflbnso. If the dealer in wood assures the buyer that the measuro of a purchase is a full cord, and it happens that it is short in any appreciable degree, the wood dealer by selling to that buyer on the represen tation made, robs the latter to just the extent of the shortage and ho cannot plead the rule of caveat emptor. It does not change the character of the imposi tion one whit that the seller traffics in newspapers and not iv wood. But tho bill referred to should be strengthened by amendment, or supple mented by an enactment providing that if a newspaper is printed wholly within its countj', >t shall have preference of public business as against any paper printed in part anywhere else. The truth is that the paper printed only in part at home is not a home paper. It may be doubted if it is legally a paper that can be officially recognized, even as the law stands, since all laws requiring official publication uniformly declare that it shall be made in newspapers pub lished in the county or district —not half printed and published in the county, but wholly, is clearly the intent and the rea son of the law. The patent outside or inside ought to be made ineligible to receive public bus iness, if there is a paper in the county or city printed wholly at home. The latter is honest publication, the former does not differ greatly from a circular, and is not, in reason, such a newspaper as the law contemplates should be employed by officials as mediums through which to give notice. All publishers know that not infre quently a newspaper is gotten up for the express purpose of receiving a given amount from the local public treasury, SACRAMENTO DAILY KECOBD-UMOy, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 1891.—EIGHT PAGES. and then of going the way of all weakling frauds. All such papers are cheats and disgrace journalism. Their proprietors go to San Francisco, procure a patent out side and run the paper a few weeks, without either intention or hope of mak ing the journals permanencies. Such papers live about as long as it is neces sary to run out the official advertising and then discontinue, according to the unexpressed but entertained intention from the outset. All such sheets are fraudulent in their issuance, and should receive the condemnation of the law, by emphatic affirmative expression. These propositions aro so simple, un deniable and just that no legislator can afford to put his own honesty in ques tion by attempting to controvert them. It should not take the Legislature an hour to pass the bill referred to with the amendment suggested, and if there is urgency in any case it is in such as is covered by the bill to which wo refer, since it means the defeat and punish ment of imposture. «. THE CIIAIUTIES AM) COURECTION BILI, AGAIN. The Stockton Mail objects to the Chari ties and Correction Commission proposed by Mr. Preston's Senate bill 406. The bill is, in fact, built upon the laws and experience of a largo number of States having .such charity boards, and in all of which success has attended their estab lishment. The Mail objects first that the board will have no power to carry its decisions into effect. The response is, that it will by ascertainment of facts present to the executive and legislative departments the data upon which State aid should be given or withheld. At present State aid is practically indiscriminate and depend ent upon the representations of each in stitution and the skill of its managers in manipulating legislative action. If the new board accomplished nothing more than the disclosure of tho truth, it would do.a work fully compensating for its erection. For instance, wo do not know, nor is there now any channel through which wo can ascertain, the cost of crime to the people; we do not know nor can we ascertain under our present system to what extent public charities are imposed upon; whether the institutions receiving State aid receive more than is necessary to care for tho iumates, or too little —that is, our present information concerning all charity institutions is in adequate and unsatisfactory, and presents us with none of the experience of other States. Our contemporary objects that no spe cial qualifications are required for mem bership in the board, and suggests that the bill should provide that the members should bo of certain callings or vocations. But the thoughtful will understand that it will be better to leave the choico of the board free to the appointing power. It by no means follows that the board will be better constituted if its membership is divided up between "lawyers, builders, merchants, plumbers and physicians." This is, however, a mere matter of de tail, the chief aim is to secure persons upon the board who are sincerely inter ested in conserving tho interests of the State, who are philanthropic, broad minded, humane and generous, and yet who have the courage to expose the truth to publicity, whatever it may be. Our contemporary inclines to the belief, if we correctly interpret its expressions, that the board is by the bill given too sweeping powers of inspection of all charitable, penal, reformatory and other institutions supported in whole or in part by tho State. But wo submit that there should bo no State institution not open at any and all times to searching inquiry and inspection in all its depart ments. The only inspections now pro vided for are such hasty glances as the Governor may bo able to give. The last Governor of the State was compelled to commit even that power mainly or large ly to a subordinate in his office. Such in spection as is now made is formal and brief, and cannot be thorough; it is al ways prepared for and practically value less, and to this fact every Governor Cal ifornia has had will freely testify. Under the Preston bill the Legislature will never have even the shadow of an excuse for sending legislative committees upon junketing trips to Stato institutions, at heavy cost. It is notorious that all such legislative visitations are farcial and re ault in no good to the State or the Stale institutions. Our contemporary finds fault with the bill because, with all the right of inspec tion given, the power to gather and com pel the contribution of statistics as to cost of crime, correction and charity, there is given to the board no power to apply remedies or correct abuses. This ob jection is not new, but tho experience of the State of Xew York in this matter should bo sufficient guide for us, to say nothing of that of many other States where similar boards have been main tained for many years. It has not been found necessary in any of them to confer the power of applying remedies. The executive and law departments of the Government are equal to the enforcement of the laws, where the board discovers lawlessness. But where it discovers mis management, waste, incompetency and defective systems, it is sufficient to make them public and to advise the Legislature of tho facts. It is captious criticism on the part of the Mail to say that such pub licity and report to the Legislature will efi'ect nothing, for it is contrary to all ex perience. A final objection is raised to Section 8 of the bill, which reads: The board shall make it the duty of its sec retary to act r\s puroleor ex-convieta^ent. He BbaU not tx- empowered to furnish money, but to give tiiem all possible moral support in en cOuiagexneat to useful lives, aud In helping to secure employment for them, and in geuendly strenjjUieniiii; them against the hand of so otety. It is objected that no money can be ex pended in aiding the ex-convict to better living. Money is by no means the essential thing in aiding those needing help. To encourage self-helpfulness is far more valuable aid than money gifts. The as sistance of sympathy is powerful; the aid of employment is more desirable than alms—in short, money-giving is the least necessary in aiding the paroled man. If the Secretary should find cases of physical inability, and those in which the ex-prisoner needs physical assistance, he has the charities, asylums and the heart of the people to which to appeal. But it was wise in any light in which viewed, to let it be understood that the proposed board shall not be a dispenser of alms. Were it a charity-box, it would be beset on all sides for aid and its use fulness would be destroyed. The Mail admits that such a board as is contemplated may be needed, but thinks it would prove a hindrance to the correc tion of abuses. This is a marvelous con clusion at which to arrive. How the making public of ill-inanagemeut, un economic systems, gross abuses and secret peculation can cripple correction, passes understanding. The whole tenor of the Mail's assault upon the bill savors of in sincerity. It appears to have been written With labored effort to find fault, as it cer tainly was written without the informa tion necessary to fair judgment of the measure. If the Mail will consult Mr. Wines, the famous worker in the cor rectional and charity systems of the coun try, the President and Secretary of the New York Board of Charities and Cor rection, the officers of the San Francisco Associated Charities, and the friends of economic disposition of State aid, of the effective checking of the tide of crime, and of the correction of waste and mis- management in public institutions, it will discover that all ol' these have given tlio bill their indorsement, and that it is based upon the immeasurable good such boards as proposed for California have bestowed upon other States. GROWING OLD GRACEFULLY. People should Live 100 Years nnfl En joy .Life All tho While. "To grow old gracefully," s;iys tho well known Dr. Oardner, "is not the common lot of all. With advancing years cotne increased Infirmities, but they arc by no means unavoid able iuhl (heir presence is due to failure to keep op to their work tho various orcansof tile body. The study of the body by scientists fornlshoa unquestionable evidence that th" duration Ol human life may be prolonged to 100 years." So says Dr. Qardner, nnd yet what more common Uian to me a prematurely aged, withered and brokou down limn, or a pule, weak and emaciated old lady. The gpitil is broken; all interest is gone train We and tliev look forward only to death. The saddest thins of all is that this premature age and breaking down Is needless. It] ran easily be avoided by a little cure mid assisting nature just a tittle,and it is upon this point that Dr. Gardner again speaks most clearly. Ho says: "Science,common sense, and all experience testify to the benefits to be derived from the use of alcoholic stimulants." It shouid be remembered, however, that they must bL> pure, and that of all stimulants, whisky is preferable. The word whisky is de rived from an ancient word meaning "water of life," and it is a most appropriate Dune, Al though tiiere is so much that is unworthy In the market. The highest authorities—doctors, chemists >md scientists— agree, however, that Duliy's Pure Malt Whisky is pure and cannot harm even a child. Its cflfect is to build up the system, renew the life and replace weak ness and weariness by healthy Vigor. Be very careful, however, that you secure only the genuine: insist on your droaxista tarnishing you with it and you will certainly tind great benefit Irom its use.
