SATURDAY, MARCH 8,
THE NEW APPORTIONMENT.
The-Placer Argus says: The Senatorial apportionment bill which gives
Placer and El Dorado counties one
Senator between them can only be
considered fair to the extent that,
ander the circumstances, it might
have heen difficult, and perhaps even
impossible to do better. The truth
is there are too many restrictions and
hamperings in the new Constitution
to permit of a thoroughly fair and
‘satisfactory readjustment of _legislative power among the counties, Not
only must the various Gistricte be
made of contignous-territory, but re
gard must be had to such questions
as amount of population, identity ‘of
interests, _ political equality, — ete.
Thus Placer county with its repre“sentative population “of ~12,031—)
“representative” excludes Chinese
—could not reasonably expect a
Senator, because on an average Senators can only be given to every 19,600 of representative population.
Nor could El Dorado with its 9197
expect such consideration. On the
other hand, Nevada county was just
about right for a Senator. When it
comes to dealing with the question of
Assemblymen, it ix different, Plac\er bas more than enough population
t entitle it to one Assemblyinan, but
not enough for two. Patting the
thing ina mathematical kind of way
it is entitled to two thirds of a Senator._and also. to one .-.and onefifth Assemblymen: Buta Senator,
or purposes of representation, ‘is
equal to two Assemblymen. Hence
Placer county alone is populous
enough to have two and one-half Assemblymen, or a Senator and half an
Assemblyman. If, then, El. Dorado
gets an Assemblyman, and Placer
an Assemblyman only, the latter
will be at a loss of twenty per cent;
in its legislative pro rata, while El
Dorado will have a -very little more
than she is entitled to. In such case
while Nevada county is faring
quite well enough for her citizens to
be entirely satisfied with their legislative lot, and‘El Dorado is’ more
than satisfied, Placer will be left out
in the cold to che extent above mentioned, namely, twenty per cent. of
aloss. It isnot much satisfaction
to know that 2 Democratic legislature has also shorn Sacramento coun‘ty of some of her legislative power.
The only solace conveyed by the lastnamed reflection will be had in case
this apportionment become .a law,
when there will be one rabid antimining Senator less.

Cot, PARKER asserts a truth which
teachers sadly need to know—that
uniformity in schools is certain
death. He does not believe in ‘per
cents.” He would not have them in
schools under any circumstances.
Here is a child who is not s0 quick
mentally as another; he studies as
hard and labors as faithfully as the
others, but not being able to advance
as rapidly he is marked 50 per cent.,
while others walk off waving their
95 per cent. in triumph. It is dis-.
couraging to the moderately dull
child, and-wrong. Ifa child is examined and asked thename of a river
and cannot answer off ome five per
cent,
Joun_Fixmine, a convict. from
San Quentin, who was at Oroville as
a witness in a burglary case, made
his escape from the jail Wednesday
at noon by quietly walking out behind some carpenters who. were. repairing the celle, He’was missed in
a few minut-s, and a vigorous pursuit was at once instituted; but up
to this writing no trace of him has
been reported. He is the only witness in the case against the defendant, who will necegsarily go clear if

The man who was found ‘nearly
suffocated by gas in the Hotel Andte, in West Eleventh street, on
Saturday proved tobe C. J. Victor
Okerburg of Brooklyn, a Swede by
birth, Secretary for Mr. Van Horn
of the Western
Company. Drs. Ferdinand C, Valentine of No. 28 West Eleventh
street, and Dr, James Anderson of
No. 20 University place, were” summoned, Later, Dr. Garrigues arrived. He was pulseless. He was
breathing quite irregularly, eleven
times to a minute, and his heart was
beating twenty-five times'to a minute, Artificial respiration was first
employed, but later it was decided
to apply the remedy of transfusion of
blood, A vigorous negro, Edward
Banks, eighteen years old, with no
hereditary or acquired disease, offerered himself for the purpose. Dr.
Valentine in talking of the case, said
to a Tribune reporter: ‘‘We abstracted eight ounces of blood from the
negro’s arm, beat it up in a bowl
with a fork and strained it through
the folds of a clean,fine piece. of
muslin. We then dissected up a superficial vein in the _patient’s arm,
opened it and allowed a few ounces
-of blood to escape, ~The nozzle” of
the transfuse syringe, which is amodified and more delicate make of the
cormmon household syringe, was inserted and the blood ejected into the
patient’s arm, and was taken up by
the circulation, This operation took
about two hours, After the transfusion I proceeded with other remedies, sapplemented by the use of the
hours later succeeded in calling the
patient to partial consciousness, but
it was not till six Pp.m. that he was
thoroughly conscious. By questioning him, I discovered that he was
aware that he had left his home on
Friday morning, but he remembered
nothing afterwards.. He did not
know where he was or what time
had elapsed. His wife was sent for
and came in the meantime. She
said hé had some slight business
trouble, though not enough to justify extreme measures, Being unused
to trouble it had produced temporary
mental aberration. Okerburg yesterday disclaimed all intention of
taking his life, and regarded himself
as able to overcome his troubles.
Transfusion of blood is a more usual
remedy than peuple are aware of.”
