MR. WHITE RETURNS.
An Interview on Matters of
Local Moment.
THE NEW CHASTER DISCUSSED.
The Chae Chan Pin* Case —The
Public Priutership—The Last
State Legislature.
Hon. S. M. White, Lieutenant-Gover
nor of the State, returned to town yes
terday morning from his Washington
trip, whither he went to present the
Chae Chan Ping case before the Supreme
Court of the United States. A Hbrald
man found the illustrious Senator in his
offices during the course of the after
noon, and the request for an interview
was readily granted, in spite of the fact
that Mr. White was literally besieged by
callers, some of whom were friends wel
coming him back home again, though
many were clients, anxious to consult
him on business matters.
The first topic brought under discus
sion was as to the legality of the new
City Charter. "I was away from here
at the time when all of the objections to
it were set forth," said Mr. Wnite, "but
SB I understand it there are only two im
portant reasons for its rejection. The
first is a proposition that the Charter
should have gone through the Legisla
ture as a bill and have been there read
three times. Ido not think that there
is anything in this. The Constitution
provides a particular mode cf approving
a new Charter, and that has been done.
The Legislature hag no power to enact a
Charter. A Charter is made by the peo
ple, subject to legislative approval, and
the Governor has nothing to do with it.
The position of the Legislature when a
Charter is before it is like tbat of the
Governor regarding a bill, with the ex
ception that the legislative veto is con
clusive, whereas that of the Governor
can be overridden by a two-thirds vote."
"Now as to the other main head where
it is claimed that the new Charter is un
constitutional because various provisions
in it are in conflict with the Constitution.
I think that, as a whole, it is valid,
though parts of it will probably not
stand. This, however, must be de
termined in actions referring to those
specific parte. Tbe whole instrument
cannot be declared invalid simply be
cause parts of it may be illegal. I still,
however, adhere to my original view tbat
the adoption of the Charter was «i mis
take, though when it came up to Sacra
mento I did all in my power to get it
through the Legislature. But I never
did think that the people of Los Angeles
were wise in voting for it, for the reason
that it bad been before excepted to on
several occasions."
THK CHAE CHAN PINQ CASE.
The conversation then turned on to
Mr. White's trip to Washington in con
nection with the Chae Chan Ping case.
"Attorney-General Johnson, Itlr. J. F.
Swift, Solicitor-General Jenks and my
self argued the case on behalf of Califor
nia," said Mr. White, "and Governor
Hoadley, formerly of Ohio, and Judge
James C. Carter, two of the ablest at
torneys st the New York bar, prsented it
on behalf of the Chinese. Seven Judges
were present, the vacancies being caused
by the absence of Judge Matthews,
deceased, and Judge Bradley, who
was ill. The Court listened at
tentively to all the arguments,
snd the questions asked, so far as those
present were able to gather, in
dicated a view favorable to our
side, though of course there were no
positive suggestions to warrant this idea.
A decision in the matter is looked for in
the course of a couple of weeks. The
arguments occupied parts of two days,
and the order of speaking was as follows:
Hoadley opened for the Chinese, then
came Mr. Johnson for California, I was
next, Mr. Jenks followed, Mr. Swift
then closed our side of the affair and
Judge Carter closed for the opposition.
The question at issue is whether or not
the Scott Exclusion Act is valid in so far
as it declared void all certificates issued
under previous acts. The particular
Chinaman whose case is being tested
had received a certificate and had gone
to China. While on bis way back to
America the Scott act was passed and be
claimed that as to him it was ineffectual,
aa by virtue of hia certificate he had made
a contract with this Government
under which he had a right to land. It
is an important matter to decide, for
there are between 20,000 and 30,000 cer
tificated Chinamen waiting to come back
if the result be favorable to them. Some
place the number as high as 50,000."
THE PUBLIC PRINTERSHIP.
"As you have just returned from Wash
ington, you probubly can give Los Ange
les an idea as to how the fight for the
Public Printership is going," suggested
the Herald man.
"When I was there, the indications
were that Osborne would get it," was the
reply. "He has at his back all of the
California delegation, and seems to have
many friends in other quarters. What
.effect this delay as regards th*> ap
pointment may have, though, I do not
kaow."
"Were you long in the Capital City?"
was the question.
"Well, I was delayed there a,week on
account of the death of Judge Matthews,
for the Supreme Court took a recess to
attend hia funeral at Cincinnati. From
Washington I went to New York, Boston
and as far north as London, Canada.
Tnen I went to Philadelphia, where my
wife now is and will remain a week or
so longer. T came home by the Denver
and Rio Grande Road, via Ogden, stop
ping over at Sacramento, so as to put my
final certificate to the minutes of the Sen
ate Journal."
THE QUARANTINE BILL.
"How did the trouble regarding the
Cattle Quarantine bill come about?"
asted the scribe.
"It was a Senate bill, and was sent
from there to the House. Now if it failed
to pars the lower body it should have
been reported back to tbe Senate as
'failed to paes.' Instead of this being
done, however, it was reported back as
having pasted, and was accordingly or
dered for enrollment. It then went to
the Governor, and he signed it. Of
coarse it was a grievous error to have
handled it in such a way, but the mis
tdte cccJT.d in the confusion of the
list two days. There were between 700
nod 800 hills on file, all of which were
being called up at a lively rate, and in
the tush \be error doubtless occurred. It
however, been set back now,
and last week the State Board of Health
treated it as invalid."
THE LAST SESSION.
"How about the Waterman-Boruck
scandal ?" was tbe question.
"It is a matter that I do not feel abJe
to discose now," was the response, 'as
it involves so many propositions that
(should be taken up one by one. The |
LOS ANGELES DAILY HERALD SUNDAY MORNING, APRIL 21, 1889.
position of a Governor under such cir
cumstances as those in question is a very
trying one, as it is hard to satisfy every
body and keep one's temper. _ 1 was not
present at the closing session of the
Legislature, which I see was attacked so
vigorously by one of the Bacrainento
papers, but I am certain tbat it was not
so black as it is painted. While I admit
that many of the members of the late
Legislature were far from what they
might have been, still I think that the
Legislature was as good as the
previous one. There is one thing about
it, there was more work done by it than
by any of its predecessors.
THK APPROPRIATIONS.
"Now, as to the appropriations, about
which there has been such violent decla
mation. Their increase was caused by
the new institutions, such as the insane
asylum for Southern California, as well
as one for the not them part of the State,
and also the Boys' Reform School. My
view of tbe matter was that there was a
■good opportunity to get a good appropria
tion for Southern California, and that it
was, therefore, an excellent thing to in
crease the tax levy. We will get a rea
sonable share of the result, which will go
inte public improvements and also give
employment to a large number of people.
The contingent expenses were, however,
as they always are, too large, and even
reckless.
"I see that a good many are disposed
to cavil even at the $10,000 for the gym
nasium for the Normal School, but it
must be remembered that we contributa
one-tenth of the entire money raised by
the Srate —we did so last year, in this
county alone.
"Some very good laws were passed by
the Legislature. One is an amendment
to the Civil Code providing that a deed
to a married woman shall be presumed,
as between her and an innocent pur
chaser, to convey the estate to her as her
separate property. Heretofore, even
when the deed has recited this special
feature about separate property, it has
been liable to attack on the grounds of
being community estate. This has
1 caused a good deal of trouble in real
1 estate quarters, especially in Los Angeles
' county, and through it many titles have
■ been found to be defective."
| THK NBW COUNTY.
"What do you think of the new Orange
\ county?" asked the reporter, in con
| elusion.
"I was opposed to the separation be
cause I believed it was obnoxious to my
| constituents, and I, therefore, felt it my
' duty to vote against tbe change. Now
that the bill has passed, however, it be
! comes the business exclusively of the
' people in the proposed new county, and
they should treat it as they deem fit."
