The word "midwinter" will not mislead
anybody who knows anything OF the eli
mate of California. The season for the
fair, from the time Of Its opening in Janu
airy through the months of its continu-
ance, is the most genial season of the year
in California. The temperature is moder-
ate, rain is infrequent. and the weather Is
calm. 1t is a prolonged springtide. In
our winter time California always attracts
visitors from other parts of the country.
We have examined set of photographs
of the fair grounds and buildings as they
appeared about q week ago, and of the de-
signs for them, by which we may judge
how they will appear when completed.

fore Judge Ogden on the motion of the
plaintiff to strike out certain portions of
the defendants answer.
Attorneys w. r. Davis and William Lair
Hill appeared on behalf of the city and A.

rift north of Twelfth street and about two
acres at the foot of Peralta street.
Judge Ogden, after listening TO argu-
ment denied the motion to strike out, to
which counsel for the city took an excep-
tiOn.
The court took under adyisement for a
week the general demurrer to the answer
after listening TO an extensive argument
by Messrs. DAVIS and Hill on behalf of
the city and Messrs. Moore and Martin on
behalf OF the corporation.

A NUMBER OF DARK LAND OF.
FICE FRAUDS UNEARTHED.
An Organized Gang OF Boosters at Work In
the Territory-The Arrest of Payne
and HsiDes.

1t is quite probable that the arrest
and binding over of Thomas Haines and
John +. Payne for altering the word
ing of land Office papers will be fol
lowed by sensational developments 1t
is claimed that there has been an or
ganized crowd at work among certain
ones to defraud settlers, and plan
has been successfully worked up TO this
time whereby new settlers were de-
luded into buying already prepaid fl
ings.
The crowd worked the scherae so
boldly that Haines and Payne were
caught changing the wording of fl
ings. The land Office officials, seeming
ly determined to put a stop to all
forms of fraud, Immediately had the
men arrested. Evidence of their guilt
was so plain that they were bound
oyer to the federal grand jury, and in
default of bail, were brought to the
Guthrie Jail.
1t is claimed that the land officials
have sworn out warrants against n
number of Others who have been work
ing the scheme, and sensational devel-
opments are looked for within the
next few days
