A Striking Contrast

In the county of Sacramento, and
lie two tracts of land separated by
the American river, both tracts
bottom land, the soil precisely of
the same quality and of the richest
character. The tract lying north of
the American river belongs to the
baronial estate of Lord Haggin,
and is q portion of his tract con-
tanning 10000 acres; it is unculti-
waited and uninhabited, except by
employees and is assessed at valu-
alton of So per acre. The other
tract, lying opposite, on the south
side of the river, is owned and Gull
tivated by hard working, in
dustrious farmer named Rooney,
and has been for many years. Last
year this tract was assessed at
S45 per acre, independent of
the improvements upon it. Five
crops Of alfalfa were cut from it,
besides good crop of corn and
sowed grain also raised, realizing
to its industrious owner a real
profit of over $4,000. Thirty men
are now employed on this land.
The first picture ia a true view of
the effect and benefit Of land mo-
nopoly to the Industrious taxpayers
of this city and county. The Sec
ond is true picture of the benefit
derived by occupation and cultiva-
ton; the money price in circula-
ton from the profits of the land,
the amount of taxes paid, the en-
ployment given to large number
Of workingmen all the year round,
the benefit the mechanic, the gro
GER aud every class received
all these add to the ma
terial benefit to the commu-
nifty, whilst the other is as
q Sahra, whose drifting sands are
ipterspersed with not an oasis to
bless the State or its people. Now
let us see the result of this system
of taxation which the land barons
have fastened upon California and
its industry, and which this system
of monopoly seeks to perpetuste by
means of its "non-partisan,n
stocked Conventions. Haggin's
land is valued at SIS per acre; Hag-
gins industry, nothing. Total, SIS
per acre. Rooney's land valued at
So per acre; Rooney's industry, $37
per acre. Total, $45 per acre. This
Is 6 true statement of the manner
In which the entry should be made
in the Assessors books.-,Sacra-

ITEMS FROM THE EXAMINER OF LAST
WEEK-John j. Unison, the young man
who killed VIM. Wartield last December
at GAINESVILLE, Montgomery county, Md '
and who was tried and acquitted ut the
March term of the Circuit Court for thai
county. died at Barnesvllc last week. 1t
is said that his death was the result of grief
and excitement attendant upon the trying
scenes through which he had passed.
On Thursday afternoon last, as Mr.
Murray Brlsh and Augustus Fralcy, of
this city, were returning from the Manor,
their horse became frightened and started
to run, upsetting the buggy, throwing
both of them out. The horse was stopped
by Mr.. Phlccgle at the mill and returned
to these gentlemen. They arrived shortly
afterwards in this city considerably Lruised
about the body.
We record the death this week ono of
our oldest and most esteemed old ladies,
Mrs. Sophia Martin, which occurred at Tie
residence of her son-in-law, Mr.. ]. Alfred
Ritter, on East Church street. in this city
on Saturday last, aged 80 years and II
days and was well known to many of our
citizens Her death will be regretted by
all who knew her. The funercl took plact
on Tuesday afternoon from her late resi-
A..
eucc of numerous mourning relatives and
friends.
Mr.. John Cox, on Friday last, had sill
yer watch stolen from his vest pocket at
the Citizen Gas House by some thief. He
was engaged at work about the house and
had his vest hanging on the inside, and
when upon going for his vest discovered
that he was watch out.
