The Harlan Case,

In the Harlan case at Woodland General
Hart finished the closing argument for the
prosecution at 6 P NJ. Tuesday, and the
Court then adjourned until $50 a. NJ. yes
terday At that hour Judge Garoutte de-
livered his charge to the jury, including
many instructions prepared by the attor-
neys engaged in the case. The Jury paid
close attention to his remarks, and about
II o'clock they were put in charge of Sheriff
Beamer. The fact of the case being in their
hands was soon learned in this city, and
during the remainder of the day and even
ing great interest in the result was mani
tested, and citizens were constantly calling
at the RECORD UNION office to gain infor-
nation on the subject.
The telephone between this city and
Woodland was frequently brought into
service, and the information received up to
a late hour last night was that the jury
stood nine for acquittal. \ report was in
circulation that at one ballot they stood
ten for acquittal. The case has occupied a
longer time in trying than any similar case
tried in the State, and the expense has been

N,ilestones on the Road to Health.

The recovery of digestion, and the re-
sumption of activity by the liver. bowels
and kidneys, are milestones which mark
our progress on the road to health. They
speedily become perceptible when Hostel
ters Stomach Bitters is used by the invalid.
Nothing so surely and expeditiously con-
sumes the distance to the desired goal. As
no bodily function can suffer interruption
without impairing the general health of the
system, so the system can never acquire
perfect vigor, health's synonym, until that
function be actively resumed. Take, for
instance digestion, suspension of which
is invariably rectifed by the Bitters. If the
organs upon which it devolves grow weak,
biliousness, constipation, headache, poverty
of the blood and hundred other symp-
toms supervene, which indicate unmistak-
ably the baneful general influence of dys-
pepsa. The disappearance of all these
symptoms, through the use of the Bitters,
shows with what thoroughness it removes
their cause

The Irrigation Problem.

EDS. RECORD UNION: 1t is more condu-
Give to the interest of any community that
the truth should be known, than that po-
litical demagogues should be allowed to
mislead the people by their specious soph-
isms for the purpose of inducing them to
sanction and adopt measures not war
ranted either by national or State law
The irrigation principle upon which the
Legislature is called to act has no legal
standing either in law, equity or justice
| do not believe il is in the interest of the
laboring classes to allow a wealthy land
syndicate that have gobbled up millions of
acres of desert land to monopolize all the
water rights and privileges in the State.
Our canal and ditch owners have vested
rights by Act of Congress. In this county
there is no surplus water except in the
wet season, when it is not needed for irri-
cation in the valleys The wants of our
agriculturists in the foothills cannot be
supplied by our mining canals aud bitches
though they carry all the water of our
mountain streams when it is required for
irrigation. The only way to have surplus
water in this county is by building large
reservoirs for storing water. Building dams
and reservoirs would cost the State mil
lions. | do not believe this privilege is
asked for the benefit of our landless poor.
think it is more for the benefit of these
soulless monopolists than to benefit the
citizens of the State generally. If the State
had the constitutional power (which it has
not to take from the foothill owners of
land their riparian rights, it would be an
unjust proceeding to deprive settlers of
their water privileges. The Legislatures of
this State have formerly passed some very
foolish and unconstitutional Acts, IN con-
fliet with national law, which have been
repudiated by Congress and declared I'M
constitutional by the Supreme Court of the
United States. 1 can instance many such
Acts, but it is sufficient to say that the
Legislature of the State of California had
no constitutional power to grant to foreign
ers the right to mine on the public domain
on the payment of tax. In conclusion, |
will say that Governor Stoneman's political
irrigation gun being discharged at the pres
ent time is, in my opinion, more likely &c
kill his friends than foes.
