COURT MATTERS.
A PAIR OF TWINS IN COURT ON
HABEAS CORPUS.
Going on-Complimentary Jurors-The
Hunter Estate.

In Judge McKinley's court yesterday
the matter of Roy and Roscoe Besett on
habeas corpus, came up and was post
poned until today. The petitioner in
the case is Maggie Mcintyre, who al
leges that she is the mother of the chill
dren, who are restrained of their liberty
by Mrs. E. Reynolds. She claims that
the boys arestwins of the age of 6 years,
and she is entitled to their custody, al
though Mrs. Reynolds also claims the
children, for the reason that she has had
them for the past two years. She also
alleges that she is afraid that Mrs.
Reynolds will take the children away or
out of the state, or will conceal them.
The attorney for the respondent stated
that he would prove that the mother of
the children was not a fit person to have
them, that she was a woman of the
town, and the matter was continued un-
til today, the children in the meantime
being placed in the custody of the sheriff
The Water Case.
The argument on the demurrer IN the
case of the City Water Company against
Major E. L, Stern ct al. is still going on
before Judge Mckinley. The matter is
quite important, as it involves the ques-
tion as to whether one company can hold
the exclusive right to lay water pipes
through the streets.
Complimentary Jurors.
The jury in department 2 OF the supe-
rior court was dismissed yesterday, but
before its members departed they stated
that they had something to say to the
court. The foreman then read the fol-
lowing:
"We, the jurors attending the supe-
rior court, department 2, desire to ex-
press our appreciation Of the dignitied
| and uniform courtesy and kindness to
us all of the Hon. w. H. Clark, Judge,
and trust the people generally appreciate
such men, whose abilities fit them for
so exalted position"
We, the jurors attending superior
court, department No. 2, Los Angeles
county, desire to express our apprecia-
ton OF the kindness and close attention
to duty of NJ. j. Ashmore, clerk OF said
court, during our attendance on said
court.

their stable, as they had long
drive before them after hard
days work. So away they bowled down
the hill past the fine place of Senator
Cornelius Cole and the Rancho La Brea.
where the retired statesman has q large
area of very fine land, and by a little
after O'Clock the HERALD office was
reached.
And now for the burden of all this
preliminary work. Here is stretch of
country right at the gates of Los Ange-
les, fifteen miles long by an average of
three miles wide, forty-five square miles,
or nearly 900 acres of absolutely the
finest fruit land on this continent. 1t
has all the requisite elements for the
most successful cultivation of the
orange, the lemon and the lime.
1t is no speculation. At all the
places visited small groves may
be seen, clean, healthy, robust and
full of fine fruit. At Wolfsklll's, Dur
fees, Yager's, Miller's, Kays's, Ben
nett's, Plummer's, Wilson's, Kinds,
Wilcox's, Claussen's, Roberts's and
Coles, and at all the places passed, the
trees may be found as fine as any in the
section. The beauty of it is that at
many of these places they are doing
well without irrigation. Some who
have plenty of water do not use it, as
their trees do not need it, Here is the
soil and here the climate best suited to
this industry. As tomatoes mature here
in the winter, no suspicion of
frost can touch the region.
The soil is the richest washings
of the hills. 1t is warm as hot bed,
and most easily worked. The whole
region lies basking in the earliest smile
of the morning sun. Cahuenga foothill
lands will soon become famous for their
oranges, as they have been for years on
account of their winter peas and toma-
toes. Both these unique industries will
multiply and flourish until the value of
this land becomes recognized. Lands
that will produce crops worth 5000 to
$500 an acre will not be long purchas-
able for $500. They will be recognized
at their full value, which will be about
$4,000 for raw lands and $1,000 to $4,000
for improved places.

John Evans Tumbles From the Court
House.
Yesterday morning about II O'Clock
John Evans, who has been employed
on the county court house as laborer,
slipped and fell from the top of the third
story to the ground below, distance of
about forty feet. Evans, who was en-
ployed in adjusting some of the iron and
stone work, attempted to walk on an
iron girder from one wall to another,
when he lost his footing and shot down
ward, striking several of the iron girders
in his descent. When his brother work
men reached him it was found that he
was still conscious, but bleeding freely
from cuts about the head and face. 1t
was also ascertained that he had COM
pound fracture of the left leg. He was
conveyed to a small building ON Broad
way, where Drs. Hughes, Orme and
Cowles attended to his injuries. He
was afterwards taken to his home on
Temple street. He is a married man.
and was favorite with his fellow work.

Harness Makers Meet.

The harness makers of Kansas met
Wednesday and yesterday at the
Pacific hotel for the purpose of organiz-
ing retail harness makers protective
association.
The retail harness makers complain
that the wholesale dealers have been
selling at retail in many of the cities
and towns of Kansas and Missouri.
They also object to the the shipment of
harness and trappings to the local hard
ware dealers in the smaller cities. The
members of the association will be
required to pledge themselves not to
buy from firms that persist in this
practice. They say that the policy, if
continued, will have a tendency to
close all of the shops of the local har-
ness dealers in this section of the
country. The meeting was, called to
order by J. ]. Winterburg, of Great
Bend, Kans. Mr.. Winterburg briefly
stated the objects of the proposed asso-
citation. A committee of FIVE was
appointed upon constitution and bylaws
consisting of J. J. Winterburg, w. c.
Hoffmeister. l. w. Slaughter, David
Martz and Charles Hawes. The follow
ing officers were elected: President,
J. J, Winterburg, of Great Bend, Kan.
vice-president, l. w. Slaughter, of Min
neapolis, Kan; secretary, H. S.
Mueller, of Sedgwick, Kan; treasurer,
F. c, Baur, of Chase. The place OF
the next meeting was left in the hands
of the executive committee.-K. c.

We are glad to notice that our towns
man, Mr.. Winterburg, was honored by
the presidency of the association, and
know that he will fill that Office with
honor and with satisfaction to his asso'
ciates.

A Republican Canard.

There are several republican papers
in the state that are attempting to
political capital out of the old story of
the impeachment of Governor Robin
son. While the eJournal-Tribune is not
champiOring the candidacy of Governor
Robinson it does not believe that either
statements or inSinuatiOnS in reference
to the matter will have tendancy to
aid the republican party. The facts in
reference to the impeachment have
gone into history, aud if there are any
voters in Kansas that are not familiar
with them they can easily inform tf1em.
selves, and when they do the inSinua-
tiOns that are being made can be of no
benefit to the republican party. Con-
cerEing the GOvernor'S connection with
the fraudulent sale of bonds the testi-
mony of the secretary and auditor was
substantially as follows:
John w. Robinson testified that he
never heard that Governor Robinson
kaew anything of their proceedings at
Washington; that he did not receive
any communication from him while at
Washington, and he said after xe re-
turned that he would not have sold for
less than 20 cents.
Geo. 5. Hillyer testified that he did
not know that Governor Robinson
knew that they were going to Washing
ton to sell the bonds; that the secretary
did not know whether he could 60 to
Washington or not when he left Kan
sas; that when he went there he expect
ed to get 20 cents. if he sold at all. and
never received letter from Governor
Robinson.
r. S. Stevens testified that he offered
oh. -,<
offering to sell a part of the bonds for
less than 40 cents, which he declined
doing, saying that he had examined the
law and did not think it gave authority
to sell at that price.
Governor Shannon said: NO claim
has bean made of completely on the
part of Governor Robinson with the
sale of the per cent bonds The good
sense of my eloquent friend has not
claimed any such completely All the
testimony proves that the governor

dier; would do the old soldier JUSTICE
before offering him CHARITY; would
pay him the same money the bondhold-
ers were paid in, and would not use him
as a political machine as the republi-
can party now uses him.
Jerry touched up the inconsistencies
of the Dodge City nondescript platform;
said the convention there reminded him
of the language i'm which the Ohio
canal boat captain described the wreck
ing of his craft:
"She hove and sot. and sot and hove.
And on her beams she hung:
And every time she hove and sot
Another leak she sprung
And the speaker proceeded to point out
to his audience the many leaks and
bad breaks in the heavy craft. He
asked if anyone had read OF heard of
another republican platform like it in
all the world; he said it was set to
catch suckers. like the donkey the boy
traded to the English hunter.
MIR. Simpson then paid his respects
to Ingalls,: pictured him in all his hid
eousness, i'm all his craven and bitter
partisanism. He said that the party
leaders, following the advice of the
great John James, were raising money
in every county with which to buy the
votes of the hard up farmer; cautioned
the people to look for grand explosion
of republican thunder just on the eve
of election, and bid them be ON their
guard and stand steadfas: for the right.
At the close of his speech he was
cheered again and again, and evidently
made a lasting impression on many a
doubling mind.
