Sacramento has been agitating the ‘Question of the admission of colored children to-the public schools, for the lust half year. They have two volored child:en who are adavanced far enough 'to enter the Grammar school, and as no grade high enough ‘fr them exists in the colored schools, the Trustees put them into the white Grammar school. ~Au issue was formed, andin the election last Fall candidates for Superintendent of Schools representing both sides of the question, were nominated, and the one epposingthe admission cf the colored children, Mr, Hinkson, was elected, A series of Kkirmishes has followed, in which . the chances of success seemed to hang inthe balance. But now we -auined to allow the admission ef the colored children have the advantage, made a precedent in deciding the question when agitated elsewhere ‘in The Supreme Court’s decision favors the plan of admitting them when other accommodation is swili become a law, not provided.

They said they were willing tosell out or be set’ up in other business, Three new suloons opened the next day, which is not encouraging. If the women could afford t6 buy out the saloons we presume many, places would. be willingly closed by their proprietors, and if-they will set them up in other business they will be welcomed by . many if not all the dealers. San Francisco has organized a Temperance Union and elected officers to conduct-it. We-give those officers one month’s peace of mind, for after that every newspaper in that city will be denouncing some official act. of theirs, and demanding an investigation.

We believe this to be just, and if passed would be of great advantage to the country in several ret spects. It would increase the amount of tasable ~property, aud theyeby lower the rates of taxation. It would compel companies owning = thése lands, to dispose of ‘tsemto actual setilers and not hold them for purposes of speculation, It would also compel buyers of the lands to’secute ua title and render their property subject to Wxation, instead of letting the title remain in the hands of the Railroad Company, and thereby avoid payment as they have heretofore done.

We believe this to be just, and if passed would be of great advantage to the country in several ret spects. It would increase the amount of tasable ~property, aud theyeby lower the rates of taxation. It would compel companies owning = thése lands, to dispose of ‘tsemto actual setilers and not hold them for purposes of speculation, It would also compel buyers of the lands to’secute ua title and render their property subject to Wxation, instead of letting the title remain in the hands of the Railroad Company, and thereby avoid payment as they have heretofore done.
