eaves neaiera' Proms Prevents Adulteration statin's Thai Atvaya Buoy Corner Magnificent Expedition of MB ureciv Political Decline of New England, The State census of Massachusetts shows a gain of 6.9 per cent in population since the Federal census of 1900, or a net increase of 193,612 inhabitants. Should the same ratio of increase be. maintained for. the next five years the gain for the decade would be a trifle over 14 per cent, allowing for progressive increase. This computation would give the Bay State a population of 3,200,000 in 1901.

As Connecticut alone of the other New England States' is making a decided gain in population, the extrerrie eastern division of States must show a relative, as well as actual, decline, in. political power. Massachusetts is now outranked in point of Congressional representation by five States, namely, New York, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Ohio, Missouri and Texas, while Michigan, Indiana and New Jersey are crowding at her heels. By 1920 Massachusetts will, in all probability, rank tenth or twelfth in population. It is.

The Sacramento Bee is in danger of indicting itself for being a channel for the Ruef-Schmitz literary syndicate by editorially firming the prognostications of THE TRIBUNE'S San Francisco correspondent. It says the nomination of John S. Partridge is enough to make a horse laugh. It accuses the Republican League mountain of laboring to bring forth a mouse, and says a number of uncomplimentary things about the reform movement across the bay.

This will be sad news for Fairfax Wheelan, Arthur Fisk and Gavin McNab. The Bee declares the nomination of Partridge against Schmitz to be a fiasco.

The old stock of New- Republican convention. This looks like giving aid and comfort to the enemy. But our Sacramento contemporary illuminates the situation by certain disclosures respecting the methods adopted to down Schmitz and Ruef.

It says: "The League was organized to purify tfie City Government, and particularly to beat Ruef and Schmitz. It has worked the Grand Jury in the interests of reform, inu made a winning fight to control the recent primaries, but now it has fallen a prey to internal rivalries and jealousies, and the out-'come is the ridiculous nomination of a nobody as 'a compromise Working the Grand Jury 'in the interests of reform." That is precisely what Schmitz and Ruef alleged. Does our Sacramento contemporary believe in making grand juries attachments to political movements, reform or. otherwise?

It now admits that the Grand Jury was "worked" for political purposes. The Bee has our sympathy. The Grand Jury filed as a re- port, a political document as long as the Pentateuch, and the reform convention has nominated a bird of a ticket. Commenting on it, a shrewd Republican politician of State reputation living outside of San Francisco said: "Schmitz will be re-elected, McNab will get the Board of Supervisors and the Republican League will get the laugh." This leaves nothing to the reformers save the report of the Grand Jury--ahd what consolation the 'Sacramento Bee has to offer. were of the old East andff.

Shortly after 8 o'clock last night two dwelling houses on First avenue were destroyed by fire. The houses were the property of George Rlggs, the bill poster, and Q. G. Harris, a locomotive fireman working for the Santa Fe, now running out of Bakersfleld. The iosa Is estimated at about $3500, with a small amount of Insurance on each building.

The alarm was turned in at 8:10 o'clock and those first on the scene discovered flames and smoke issuing from the Harris dwelling. The fire department responded promptly, but were unable to do effective service because of an Insufficiency of water. Ater a short time a feeble stream was turned on the blaze and though It could not etay the conflagration, It served by, heroic work on the part of the firemen to confine It and it is more than it ought to have in time of war.
