A STATES' RIGHTS BOGIE MAN.
Our esteemed contemporary, the Call,
is edited with distinguished ability. It
grieves us, however, to rise from read
ing its splendid English with a painful
sense of its inconsistency. We are
afraid our contemporary's literary fin
ish is somewhat superior to its capac
ity fqr analytical reasoning.
It finds in the Federal intervention
relating to the contest between the
Southern Pacific Company and the
State Board of Railroad Commission
ers an evidence of determination on
the part of the Government of the
United States to obliterate State sover
eignty and to establish a centralized
Government. The Federal officers have
asked permission to intervene in the
injunction suit now pending before the
Circuit Court of the United States so
that the Government may be heard as
to the rates of transportation on the
lines of the Central Pacific Railroad.
Upon these lines the Government has a
i mortgage lien, and v claims to
have a voice in fixing rates of trans
portation.
The Call says that the mere state
ment of this claim on the part of the
Federal authorities is sufficient to show
I Jtteiiy destructive its successful
assertion would be of the rightful sov
ereignty of the State.
It has not been long since a petition,
eigned by over lOO.UUU citizens of Cali
fornia, incited thereto by the action of
a San Francisco newspaper, asked the
Government to take possession of this
very Central Pacific Railroad, dis
charge the first mortgage, and own and
operate the road tor tbe benefit of the
people of California. Suppose the
prayer of these petitioners had been
granted, then the tjovernment of the
United States would have been a trans
porter within tbe boundaries of Califor
nia, ana woul'l have owned transport
ation Instrumentalities which would
have been exempt from taxation, and
equally exempt from all regulative
measures devised by the State.
The Call has intimated on many oc
casions that the Government should
take possession of this road, discharge
the first mortgage lie::, and become its
sole possessor. In that event the State
would lose all power to regulate the
road. It would be a Government high
way owned by the people of the United
States, and as a piece of Federal prop
erty would be beyond the jurisdiction of
i . • • • s tbe Stai
California. The Government having In
tervened to proted the sorvency of the
second lien, the Call finds its action a
i ice to State sovereignty, and
in it a danger fraught with even the de
struction ffnty alto
| i. And yet it has been but a few
Uays since the ran.' paper demanded
that the national sovereignty should
become as sovereign the proprietor of a
railroad line within the State of Cali
fornia.
Our contemporary therefore thinks,
on the one hand, that the desire of the
Government to prevent the confiscation
Of the property which stands as secur
ity for its second mortgage lien a blow
at the sovereignty of theStatf; but it
at the same time is willing that the
rnment shall absolutely acquire
i.- ownership of the property, and
thus place its regulation wholly beyond
the reach of the State.
The Government has a claim against
the Central Pacific Railroad Company
for more than $60,000,000. It therefore
has a right to its day in court to deter
mine whether the regulative measures
proposed by the representatives of Cal
ifornia are just and reasonable, or
whether they are indeed confiscatory.
The department of justice has asked
!■< imission to be an intervenor, as the
only method of protecting the security
upon which the Government holds a
subordinate lien. Yet this is deemed to
be treason against the sovereignty of
the State of California.
We have been told time and again
that the Government built this road;
that the money used in its construction
belonged to the people of the United
States. If this be true, then the peo
ple of the United States have an inter
est certainly equal with the stockhold
ers of the Central Pacific, when the
wealth-producing power of the prop
erty itself is to be determined by the ac
tion of a State commission.
Having attempted to limit its gross
income to 75 per cent, of that derived
by the present rates, the Southern Pa
cific Company, lessees of the Central
Pacific, sought to protect its revenue
by enjoining further proceedings in
this direction, but the people of the
United States have more money in the
Central Pacific's line than have the
stockholders of the Central Pacific or
the Southern Pacific itself. Have the
representatives of the real owner no
right to be heard in court when regu
lative measures, which may or may not
be confiscatory, are proposed?
We earnestly admonish our contem
porary to think in a. straight line, but
we take the liberty of giving it a brief
let-son in elementary law. All parties
having a beneficial interest in the de
termination of any question before a
cturt, or having a contingent interest
in the judgment of that court, have a
right to intervene when a suit is pend-
Ing which may affect the value of the
ownership or the title to the property.
The Central Pacific Railroad Company
is under contractual obligations to pay
to the Government of the United States
;i percentage of its earnings, but the
State of California interferes between
the contracting parties, to wit, the
Central Pacific and the Government,
and declares it will so regulate rates of
transportation that the amount of rev
enue to be derived from operating the
railroad shall be decreased. This nec
essarily decreases the amount of money
which the Government will receive, and
the question which the Circuit Court is
asked to review relates to the reasona
bleness or unreasonableness of the pro
posed regulative measures. The Govern
ment of the United States, having a
mortgage lien, is a prospective owner
of this very property, for proceedings
in foreclosure may force it to buy the
whole outfit. It intervenes for the pur
pose of protecting that ownership and
that contingent interest in the revenues
of the road to be affected.
This very proper proceeding is char
acterized by our contemporary as a
blow at State sovereignty and an asser
tion of despotic supremacy on the part
of the Federal Government. Our con
temporary should have consulted a
freshman in the Hastings Law School
before committing itself to this ridic
ulous and absurd idea.
Beyond all this, our contemporary is
forever estopped from asking the Gov
ernment to become the absolute owner
of the Central Pacific. That ownership
wculd eliminate State regulation, State
control and State taxation. If interven
tion to protect the security upon which
the holder of a mortgage—be it the Gov
ernment or an individual— depends, is
a Mow at State sovereignty, Govern
ment ownership of these roads would
effectually .snuff out all exercise of that
sovereignty. There is nothing in the
Constitution or laws of the State pro
hibiting a San Francisco journal from
being absurd, but a decent respect for
the opinions of mankind should prevent
m occupying such grotesque and
ridiculous attitudes of inconsistency.
PRESIDENTIAL FORECASTS.
The forecasts of Presidential nomina
tions will always possess interest, be
cause the discussion of any prominent
nality is oik? method of present
.iii clearness approaching issues.
:••■!] in public life are willing to
put their perspicacity to the test of
Presidential candidates six
months in advance, or even placing
tations for foresight upon
week in advance of an actual
nomination; and yet it is an entertain
a ad amusing pastime.
We tike the liberty of indulging in
: in- as to the alllgnment of
- in 1,896. We do not say that
..Mul will be a candidate for
tion. There is evidence that he
will not he: but iv with empha
sis that <.ne- nominated, he will be a
formidable candidate. Mr. Cleveland's
: during the great American Rail
way Union strike in 1894 has given him
;■ l.iuh prestige with the property Inter
■■: the country which would make
him a formidable candidate for the
tencj now or at a later time.
From the standpoint of those who favor
cpansion of the currency, Mr.
Cleveland's policy may appear very
unpopular, but in ail the region lying
east of the west line of the State of
Ohio, that policy is popular. Mr. Cleve
would be a dangerous candidate
in New York.
In view of the recent Republican up
heaval, these statements may not be re-
I as orthodox, but we are dis
c that Mr. Cleveland is
r. garded by the great conservative ele
m\ ins of the country as a safe man for
the Presidency. Assuming that the
well grounded objection in the minds of
the American people against the third
term will deprive Mr. Cleveland of the
nomination of his party in 1896, we look
Upon his Secretary of the Treasury.
Mr. Carlisle, as an exceedingly formi
dable candidate.
For many years, In fact since 1880,
this nation has been under the domin
ion of sectionalism. It has become a
tradition that the people of the South
ern States are under civil disability as
to holding the office of President. The
nomination of Mr. Carlisle would solid
ify the South. The sectionalism and |
SACRAMENTO DAILY RECOBtKUXTO;. TUESDAY, DECEMBER 3, 1895.
sentimentalism of the South would
give Mr. Carlisle solid electoral votes
from all the States where slavery ex
isted. On the other hand, New York,
New Jersey, Delaware and Connecti
cut would go for Mr. Carlisle. We are
especially confident that our prediction
relating to New York would find abso
lute fulfillment.
Next to Cleveland then Mr. Carlisle
has the best chance to be nominated in
On the Kepublican side it is per
fectly apparent that on the silver
issue the Republican party is divided.
The entire Atlantic and Middle States
are opposed to the free and unlimited
coinage of legal-tender silver. The only
device which the Republican party can
adopt to overlay that policy is to make
a high protective policy the paramount
issue of the campaign. To do this, it
must choose a personality which of it
self would be a platform. For this
reason Governor McKinley of Ohio pre
sents in his personality the most
nearly an embodiment of high protec
tion principles. His nomination would
intensify the issue of high protection
as no other nomination could.
The Democratic party must have
New York if possible, and Mr. Carlisle
is the only Democratic candidate who
could carry that State. Republicans
must bank on the high protection issue,
and Mr. McKinley is the only candi
date who, in himself, constitutes a
platform embodying that issue. From
these premises we conclude that Mc-
Kinley and Carlisle are to head the
national tickets of the two great na
tional parties in 18!)6.
MUSIC IN THE SCHOOLS.
On Saturday the Record-Union con
sidered the proposition to introduce
music teaching into the schools by sys
tematic method. The position then as
sumed was that if the method proposed
to the Board of Education will add more
to the home study of the children of
the public schools, then the new idea
should be rejected. But if the new
method will simply take the place of
the valueless rote teaching and prac
tice of the present, then it might be
wise to adopt it.
The Record-Union expressed the idea
then, and it is now more firmly fixed
in that opinion, that there is overload
ing of the curriculum of the schools,
and that any addition whatever will be
downright injury of the same order.
There is altogether too much disposi
tion to shift upon the schools duties
that are parental, too much disposition
to put into.the school system fads and
new fangled ideas, and to seek in the
schools application of correctives for all
manner of social ills. Regarding music,
however, we said on Saturday, and we
say now, that it is not a mere accom
plishment. That if it is taught at all
it should be taught systmatically and
with the purpose of making this form
of human expression of value through
out life.
It was promised that inquiry should
be made by the Record-Union into the
matter and that the people should be
advised as to the result. This inquiry
has been made; it has covered a wide
range and involved considerable re
starch and much weighing of evidence
for and against the new proposition.
We have arrived at these facts and
conclusions to our own satisfaction.
The law of the State requires that
music shall be taught in the public
schools. It goes so far as to exclude it
from the list of subjects that may be
treated orally, thus requiring it to be
taught as is arithmetic, reading, lan
guage, etc. Rote teaching of music,
therefore, is not in accordance with the
law. We find that it is required that
those who apply for teachers' certifi
cates must be examined upon the the
ory and practice of music. It is evident
then that the law contemplates music
as an essential study and not as a
trimming or a mere diversion in the
course of study.
It is found, also, that the proposition
now before the Board of Education is
not to add anything to the curriculum,
not to increase the burden of home
study or give to the children any more
or heavier tasks to add to their present
duties. But it is proposed that
music shall be taught syste
matically, slowly from chart, to
primer and reader, on up to the highest
grade, so that the child may be able to
read music as he reads print, and that
this teaching shall supplant rote teach
ing or exercise to the extent of whatever
time is now given to that method.
In view of these facts, then, there
appears to be no substantial objec
'i Qfl to the introduction of a system of
music teaching. What the system pro
: is we do not know, and into the
ru< thod proposed to be employed we do
not now inquire. That which has con
cerned the Record-Union's inquiry has
been simply the matter of guarding
against the further loading up of the
cottrse of study and increasing the home
school tasks of the pupils. If the Board
ol Education is convinced that there
will be no enlargement of study at
hi me by the children by reason of the
adoption of some system for teaching
music instead of the rote practice of
th. present; if. as we now believe, sys
tematic study of music can be had in
the public schools without further load
ing the course of study, then it should
be adopted and the law in its essence
complied with.
Of this we are positive, the rote teach
ing of music Is not compliance with the
requirements of the statute; it is of no
sort of value to the children; it is very
little more than time wasted. If, then,
this time can be utilized in teaching
that which may be easily learned, and
that ought to be within the educational
acquirements of all, the order to that
end should be made, not in the interest
of any particular system offering, but
i;i the interest of the schools, and for
the tquipping of the children with the
fundamental knowledge that will ena-
ble them to understand and interpret
the symbols of this, the second method
of human expression.
NOTE AND COMMENT.
Secretary Herbert enters a vigorous
protest against a habit that has grown
into a custom of Congress relieving na
val contractors of the penalties im
posed for failure to complete work by
the contract date. It is easy to un
derstand how this custom militates
against the Navy Department in its
preparations for outfitting a vessel.
The San Francisco Wasp of the 30th
of November was a special number il
lustrative of the new speed track at
Ingleside. It gave also many portraits
of men prominent in racing affairs and
the Pacific Coast Jockey Club. There
are pictures also of many fine fast
horses, and there is a great deal of
text matter relating to racing and
men interested in the breeding and
speeding of fine horses. It is a remark
ably handsome number and well worth
preservation for reference to the val
uable matter it contains and the racing
data it supplies.
The San Francisco Argonaut has
discovered the true reason why "life
ttrmers" dislike to be imprisoned at
Folsom. It is the inexhaustible sup
ply of granite on the prison grounds. If
there is one thing more than another
that a criminal detests it is work, and
if there is any work more than an
other kind he abhors it is pecking gran
ite.
There are newspapers which are run
upon the idea that to succeed it is ne
cessary to make some one "squeal."
These mistake the office of the news
paper for that of the blackguard.
It is said that the ostentatious dis
play at the Marlborough-Vanderbilt
wedding has disgusted the British aris
tocracy, and that they are so deeply
offended that they will refuse to re
ceive the new Duchess. There was
certainly slopping over at that wed
ding, and it is to the credit of the Eng
lish aristocrats that they are offended.
However, their present disgust will
wear off, and the Duchess will receive
recognition in due season. The Rocke
feller girl was more sensible than the
Vanderbilt woman. She did not permit
the opportunity for display to inter
fere with the wedding, though her
bridegroom is only an American and
was sick, "into the bargain."

I THE FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH.
I It Has Never Been Fnuud But Its Tow
ers Have Been Discovered.
It was once thought that a fountain ex-
I iPted somewhere in the wdrld and that all
! who drank of it would be endowed with
I perpetual youth. For long apes men
I sought for this wonderful fountain, but it
i was not until our own times that anything
' l:ke it was ever discovered. This discovery
was made by a brilliant French physician
| who pointed out that nearly all the people
; who attained remarkable old age owed
I their health and strength to the constant
I use of some pure stimulant. This, he said,
was ihe true fountain of youth.
To-day physicians recognize that in all
cases where people have tired feelings or
are run down in health something is
I needed to stimulate their flagging ener
gies. They also recognize that for this pur
pose nothing lias ever equaled Duffy's
Pure Malt Whiskey, which to-day stands
| unequaled as a pure, reliable, health-giv
| Ing stimulant.
Ha an example of what this preparation
l do for elderly men and women, we
y take the following interesting case:
. Walter P. chapman of _!> Hanover
street, Baltimore, writes: "I consider Duf
fy's Pure Malt Whisky the very nest arti
cle for the use of elderly persons who re-
Qulre a tonic as well as a stimulant. My
j grandmother, who la now past 90 years of
has l een using it for about three
and it has acted almost like a
n, always giving her an appetite and
I allaying any disorder of the stomach, i am
confident she could not do without it."
This is but one of ten thousand similar
I casi s in which Duffy's Pure Stall Whisky
has been the means of preserving life and
ht-aitii under the most trying conditions.
This is because it Is no ordinary whisky.
It deserves . to have a place In every
household where a timely and safe rem
edy should always be at hand.
