Is LAND MONOPOLY TO BE AUG
MENTED BY THE ALIENATION
OF STATE LANDS!

In our issue of Saturday we cited an in
stance where firm of land attorneys in
San Francisco had sold to Fred H. Dea-
kin four thousand acres of land, located
by State lieu, and had delivered the
goods. We have information which we
regard as entirely reliable, and in contra
diction of which we have sought the
privilege ofexamining the State Registers
records, that this same firm of land attor-
neys, which sold to Mr.. Fred II. Deakiu
four thousand acres of land, have entered
into contract to sell to E. J, Baldwin
fifty-siX thousand acres of land in single
body. The land which is the subject of
this contract is known as the Weed Patch
and lies east of the town of Visalia. It is
fertile land, level, suitable for cultivation.
but being arid. its fertility can be devel-
oped only by artificial irrigation. 1t is,
however, agricultural land, and its sale
to single individual is clearly in contra
vention ofthe Constitution. The method
by which it is to be sold, and also by
which single firm ofland attorneys are to
be able to make from one hundred and
fifty to two hundred thousand dol
lars out of the exercise of the lieu
right, is the usual one of dummy
applications; the allegation of loss,
whether real or fraudulent, and all
other methods whereby individuals ac-
quire the right to sell or to purchase any
quantity of land they may see fit. The
question arises, can Mr.. Baldwin, or any
one else, acquire 81, 900 acres of State land
through the Intervention of dummy ap-
plications? And the still more import
ant question is, by what assurance does a
single firm of land attorneys undertake
to sell $1,000 acres of State land to one
man2
We call the attention of the Governor
of the State, of the Attorney General, and
of the Surveyor General, to this contract,
and we ask these administrative land
officers to tell the people of California by
what method this firm of land attorneys
proposes to sell 81. 900 acres to an indi-
yidual

TOO OFTEN THE CASE,
INTERESTIMG PROOFS.

A young society lady, after round Of
| gayety, becomes suddenly conscious of an un.
usual sensation. She has frequent attacks Of
dizziness, her back aches, and she feels blue and
generally run down.

There is hopefor all sufferers from Nervous
Diseases. Read what follows:
Mrs Jennie G. Davis, fine artist and an
accomplished authoress, of Westfeld, Wis,
had been subject to headache ever since she
could remember. So severe were her at
ticks as to cause at times temporary delirium.
All treatment had failed to relieve her. but
aiIer Using DR.. Miles Restorative Nervine
she writes: "My record is to me, at least,
satisfactory. No headache, constantly In
creasiug appetite, and consequent gain in
weight of two and half pounds in just one
week."
SIX weeks later she writes: Have read
and sewed immoderately Of late, but my
headaches do not return.'
Mrs. John r.. Miller, of Valparaiso, Ind,
was attacked three years ago with turn of life
in lis worst form. 1t finally went to her
head, and all indications were that it would
result either in insanity or softening of the
brain. Her husband thus writes: cit would
be impossible for me to attempt description
Of her su6erings during all this time. She
was treated by our gery best local physicians,
with but temporary benefit. She has taken
four bottles of DIR. MILES RESTORATIVE

twenty pounds in weight. l tell you, she
