The DAILY HERALD has
nearly DOUBLE the Circu

Angeles. As an advertising
medium It Is consequently of
DOUBLE their value.
The Senatorial Question.
Governor Booth stands to-day the
leading figure in the popular move*
uient. Whatever doubts there may
have been about his statesmanship,
his Piatt's Hall speech dispelled them.
His bold and vigorous speeches during
Ihe whole campaign were a succession
of triumph" in what seemed to old pol
iticians a desperate cause. He gave
form and shape to the People's reform
movement, which led to the triumph
of McKinetry. He had a conscious
regard for the public welfare that in
clined him to break his party chains
for the public good. His resolute will
and high purpose carried him to the
front of tho contest. His logic con
vinced and his eloquence captivated
the people. He created, organized and
led. He went to the people with a
sincere open heart. He was earnest
in their cause and pointed out the rem
edy for their wrongs. They believe
In him, love him, bet on him, and
•wear by him. We pity the members
who cannot recognize his status in the
public mind. Woe to the Democrats
and Republicans who undertake to
harttr together to defeat him. The
people have had enough of treachery,
of political combination and trailing
for office. The Democrat who is not
willing under these circumstances to
unite on Booth for the long term nnd
on au honest man of his own party for
the short term, Is weak in judgment
or unsound In principle. The people
are watching this contest. The Gran
gers ere looking on. No factious fight,
for a long period, with a view of post
poning the election will be tolerated.
The people are rising, speaking and
acting in their majesty, and he who
does not heed the people's voice in this
batter had better never return to his
constituency, be it in what county it
may.
Governor Booth's recent message
has more than ever proved high qual
ifications for the high position, it is
a Stato paper of unsurpassed force,
ability and clearness.
California's Share in Tariff Leg
islation.
We are glad to see a prospect for uni
ted action In favor of a modification of
the tariff*, so far as it affects our west*
e.rn Intends. The tariff" as it now
stands is a great and nnnecessary bur
den upon the Industry of this coast.
Pennsylvania and New England, by
united and untiring effort have always
succeeded in building up and fostering
their manufactories at the expense of
the whole country, and it is time that
wther localities look out for their own
particular Interest I *,
The Mississippi valley State* are
gradually waking up to tho tact that
they have been imposed upon. The
Pacific States should be ready to act
with them for such changes tire de
manded by tho common good, and
with aueh an accession, the free trade
oolainn will be strong enough to over
come the scheming monopolists who
. hare ao long laid the farmers of the
west under contribution. And while
our Granger friends are so busy light
ing monopolies, it would be a good
Idea to give some attention to the
greatest of all monopolies, a high tar
iff for class protection. Tho tariff falls
on California farmers with crushing
weight The tax on jute and bagging
alone abstracts a heavy sum from their
earnings every year. Over lt>,000,(W)
grain bags are used In ft siugl j year,
and the number Is increasing. Not
only Is a tax levied on the new bags,
but after being filled with wheat ami
exported, the old bags must, again go
through the Custom House and pay
duty. Tho people of the State feol this
burden and desire its removal. The
only way to accomplish such a reform
Is to follow the example of New Eng
land, and work for the desired end in
aeason and out of season, subordina-;
ting all other matters to this import
ohjeet, and smothering all minor quar
rels which impair our strength and
iufloenee.
While the press is felicitating it
self upon the great improvement in
public morals as indicated by the con
viction of Tweed, would it not be well
to call attention to the marked differ
ence In the treatment of the rich man
and the poor one, when the law by
some unaccoutable blunder consigns
them to the same prison? A starving
and freezing wretch steals a pair of
boots, or a morsel of food, and virtuous
New York sends him up for twenty
yuan' hard labor, making shoes.
Tweed plunders the public of millions
mid demoralises a whole community,
and gets a situation as hospital order
ly for twelve years, while Stokes, for
murder, Is appointed a clerk at Sing
*!lng for four years. Verily, not only
before the courts, but even in the con
demned cell gilded rascality is at a
premium.
Tii have triumphal in
Pennsylvania. A decision i\ at ren
dered on Friday by tho Pennsylvania
Supreme Court, that the Constitu
tional Convention had usurped powers
when it called an election, and passed
an erder restraining its commissioners
tfcatr pewe"n.
Governor Booth on the Railroad Problem.
The following in tho portion of the I
Governor 1 * message thnt refers to
freights nn<l fares.
PerhajH the question of regulating
the rates of railroad transportation has
been clouded by unnecessary difficulty.
Railroads are public highways in pri
vate ownership. In their construct ion
they invoke the highest attribute of
the State's sovereignty—the right of
taking private property for public use.
Their owners are common carriers
with special privileges. If the State
has not the power to regulate their
charges, she may renounce her claims
to sovereignty. The maximum rates
in California—ten cents per mile for
passengers, and fifteen cents per ton
freight—were fixed at a time when
prices and profits were so much higher
than now, it seems to belong to a dif
ferent age. Practically, it is no limi
tation, affording so wide a margin as
to allow a railroad company to dis
criminate between places, between in
dividuals, to reward friends and pun
ish enemies, and to build up or ruin
the business of any man that depends
upon railroad transportation. This
maxnnim is not in the nature of a
legislative contract, or vested right,
the Constitution reserving to the Leg
islature the right to alter or repeal the
laws under which corporations are
created.
These things should he kept in view
in establishing rates: There should be
a fair compensation. Discrimination
between individuals should be pre
vented by penalties. Discrimination
bet ween places should be prevented by
prohibiting a railroad from charging a
higher price over any portion of the
road than is charged for the same or ti
shorter distance of similar or heavier
grades in any other portion. The rates
and classifications should be published
and posted up at all depots, as the own
ners of toll bridges and ferries are com
pelled to post their rates; and public
notice should be given of any contem
plated change. Any express or trans
portation company should be entitled
to the MBit terms, for the same busi
ness, in speed, and price, as any other.
If a fair maximum is established,
and uniformity between individuals,
and over distances and grades is com
pelled by penalties, the question of
classification may be in a great meas
ure determined by the necessities of
business. It may not prove necessary
for tho law to schedule articles in
classes. Maximum rates can be fixed
for as many classes as are required,
and the companies can make and pub
lish the schedules of each class. It
easily suggests itself that the result of
such legislation may possibly be one
schedule, one class, and the maximum
rate for every article transported. I
do not think so. But if tho experience
of the ensuing two years should de
monstrate that railroad companies,
with fair opportunities to construct
and operate a just tariff of rates of
transportation, failing to recognize les
sons already taught, and pursuing an
established' policy of strong-handed
defiance, have neglected or refused to
perform their duties, the next Legisla-
I ture, exercising the strong and un
doubted powers of government, can
, reach them and their operations in
i minute detail, forbid free passes, sched
ule every article of freight, establish
; minimum as well as maximum rates,
, prohibit tho consolidation of com pet
ing lines, permit them to own no land
not necessary for their actual use, for
bid employes to furnish supplies to
the corporations, regulate their sys
tems of accounts, and compel them by
clear enactments to recognize their
true position, their real obligations,
and their prescribed privileges. No
law is perfect. Under the operation of
the wisest, some eases of hardship and
inconvenience may occur. That is the
best which aims at substantial justice.
There is no local competition between
railroads; there is but one best route
between two points. Besides, in rail
road capital does not compete—it
combines. Not to compel fairness and
uniformity by law is to tolerate the
abuses aim oppressions of arbitrary
power.
Compulsory Education.
Otir State Superintendent iveom
niends compulsory education, and
Governor Rooth while not exactly en
dorsing his arguments in Its flavor, yet
gives the weight of his official influ
eneo in its favor. In the main we like
the ideas advanced in the Governor's
late Message, but the idea of compell
ing the attendance of our youth at the
public schools, however forcible the
arguments in its favor may seem, do
not appear to us to be consistent with
his other professions. The Governor
and the reformers generally seem to be
impressed to some extent at least, with
tho great truth that we are governed
too much. Our Government is get
ting altogether too paternal, and is
sticking its noso into many things
that are none of its business. The
people are beginning to realize this.
They want change, and instead of
going still further, and invading even
the sacred 'precincts of the family, to
carry out some Utopian scheme of uni
versal education, they ask that the
State Hhall relax its hold upon their
domestic affairs, and leave them some
thing to attend to without Govern
ment interference.
Govkrxor Rootii may well call
attention to the abuse of special legis
lation. The State of Illinois found
that such intolerable evils flowed from
the practice, that in its new constitu
tion special legislation WM cut off at
one fell swoop, and yet we are follow
ing right on In her abandoned path.
Of six hundred and thirty-seven acts
passed at the last session of our legis
ture, only ono hundred and fifty-two
were of a general character, and many
of these could have been dispensed
with, if a general law covering their
scope had been adopted The only
safety lies in a rigid exclusion of spe
cial legislation from our statute books.
San Francisco papers are congrat
ulating themselves, because Sheriff
Adams stole thirty-odd thousand dol
lars Ies 1 * than his predecessors in office.
If tho sheriffs keep improving at that
rate for a few more terms, they'll get
a man after awhile who will astonish
the world by paying all the people's
money into the Treasury.
The Governor makes one excellent
recommendiitlon—that the law should
prohibit The carrying of concealed
wwepeas
Land Monopoly and Taxation.
Kditoi: Herald: Among the many
remedies for the evils of land mon
opoly, the latest is foreshadowed In a
paragraph in Governor Booth's mes
sage, In which it is recommended that
taxes shall only be levied on land,
while the improvements thereon, and
personal property are exempt. It is
urgedthat this will throw the burden
of taxation upon the owners of unim
proved lands and town lots, and com
pel them to throw their possesions
into market. The chief objection to
this plan is that it violates the plain,
honest principle of equality before the
law. All property being entitled t<>
equal protection should bear an equal
proportion of the burden of taxation,
and any plan l»y which a certain class
of property is made to pay more than
its legitimate share, is simply dis
guised confiscation. There can be
little doubt that the unimproved lands
of the State, have in many instances,
escaped paying their fair share of the
taxes, by reason of under-valuation,
and would-be reformers would show
more wisdom in striving for the reme
dies within their reach and withal
strictly just, than by seeking to over
turn toe whole system of taxation. If
all the property in the State were as
sessed at a fair cash value in the mar
ket, taxes would not only be equally
apportioned, but incidentally, the di
vision and sale of our largo landed es
tates would be encouraged.
If indeed confiscation in any form is
to be practised, let us go at it boldly,
and after prohibiting any one person
from holding more than say <>40 acres
of land, condemn to tlie public use all
in excess of this amount held by any
one owner. By this means the State
would become the owner of the sur
plus land by purchase and the exercise
of sovereignty, and no one could com
plain of unequal taxation, or confisca
tion. It is generally conceded that no
Individual lias the right to monopo
lize the waters of the State, and is
water more important than land? If
the State has the right to restrict the
quantity of water that an individual
shall appropriate to his exclusive use,
why has it not the same right to limit
the area of land that he shall absorb?
Possibly the people of the State are
not ready for such a radical change in
the policy that has obtained of allow
ing every one to grab all that he can,
but we are sure that very few will ob
ject to a just and equitable valuation
of all property, and a thorough system
of taxation that will not allow any
species of wealth to escape its just
share of flic expenses of the State.
The Alto proposes to demolish the
Grangers by having tho Republican
party grant them all they ask for, and
thinks that this plan,by leaving them
nothing to stand on, will effectually
disjKise of the new party. But what
will become of the Republicans if they
follow the Alta's advioe? That party
is essentially a monopolist's party,and
if it should yield to all the demands of
the reformers, there would be nothing
for it to do but curl up and die.
