Coxey. Browne and Jones came to this
city with the avowed intention of breaking
the law. This they were permitted to do
because an effort to prevent the infractions
would have been regarded as tyrannical.
The arrests they courted were made and the
prisoners were tried by jury in a properly
constituted court The accused were found
guilty. and they are now undergoing the
Imprisonment they earned and for which.
perhaps. they planned The cases involved
present no extraordinary features; scores of
more important offenses and offenders are
disposed of daily by the police judges. The
efforts Of political demagogues to make a
mountain OF mOle-hill resulted in failure
that by sensitive men would be regarded as
tgnominious. Proper sentences have been
meted out to petty law-breakers and the
incident Is closed

The appeal Of the unemployed to the gov
eminent has been for work. The appeal has
taken recently an unreasonable shape and
has been supported by dangerous and mad
missible arguments. including the argu-
ment Of the threat OF physical force. The
government has properly declined to re-
spond to this appeal thus urged But In
addition to this refusal it is now proposed
that the government shall, by wholesale
discharges OF men and women already en-
pioyed by 1t Increase. instead of reducing.
the number OF the unemployed. Only the
pressure OF absolute necessity will justify
the government in these times of distress in
entering upon the policy of recruiting for
the army which lacks work and lacks food
1t does not appear that this government
necessity exists

The really perilous condition Of the Aque-
duct bridge-perilous because Congress by
inactson decreed that it should be sod
reefs attention to the meanness and insult
hciercy of the bridge communications con-
meeting Washington with the state of Vir-
ginia- Between them the Potomac rolls,
and the stream is spanned by but two
briGges-one occupied mainly by the Penn
sylveria Railroad. and thoroughly discred-
liable, the other the one which is now in
such a condition as to cause grave appre-
hensions Of partial collapse. 1t would nat
urally be supposed that at the national
capital such bridges might be needed
would be fine specimens of the bridge
builders art. worthy such a distinguished
location. but as a matter of fact Washing
toms bridges are so extremely inferior as
to attract condemnatory attention on the
part of all visitors who chance to see them.
Many efforts have been made to replace
some Of the ancient structures with bridges
of modern types that would be creditable to
the government which has its center here,
but up to this time the endeavors have in
variably failed. just as the District Commits
sioners have been defeated in their desire
to have Congress repair the lettering pier
OF the Aqueduct bridge. No one expects
that Congress at this session will make
any considerable apprC prlatlonS lor puDnc
works, not even when the money to be ap-
propriated has been contributed by the tax
payers Of the District of Columbia; so it is
idle to imagine that any such bridge as
that which has been planned to cross the
river from the foot of New York avenue or
thereStCuts will soon commence to be, but
It is quite reasonable to insist that Con-
gress, in its capacity as the local legisla-
ture. at once authorize the expenditure of
so much money as may be needed to put
the Aqueduct bridge in such safe condition
that 1t may be used without the restric-
tons that have been made necessary during
the past day or two. Neglect to make such
provision as is absolutely needed may re-
suit in the demolition of the unsound pier
and then the appropriation for repairs
would be twice three times as large as
the sum now required. By and by the Dis
trict Of Columbia will possess two or three
tial and artistic-appearing connec-
tons with Virginia; for the present it must
suffice if the existing bridges are kept sat
isfactorily sound.

The Lesson Taught the Coxeyites

The offense for which Coxey Is sentenced
is a mere incident. His real offense con-
sists in gathering together a mob and in
citing others to do the same to coerce Con-
gress by their presence and numbers into
passing certain legislation. Coxey may
nave intended to limit his efforts to noisy
petitions, but he had with him material he
could not control He started a fire which
his efforts alone could never have uuenched
IL his antcipations aid desires had been
realized as to numbers there would have
been trouble in Washington The national
capital was isolated in the District of CO.
lumbia to secure Congress from lust such
demonstrations as Coxey endeavored to gel
up. He failed utterly, but ii Is necessary
that his failure should be emphasized and
advertised that the march of cranks and
tramps on Washington shall be discouraged
and stopped.

From Honolulu today comes a rurnor to
the effect that the royalists there are
arranging to make one last effort to replace
Mrs. Dominis on the throne OF Hawaii
This endeavor will, 1t is said, materialize
simultaneously with the declaration of a
republican form Of government for the
Islands How much or how little of truth
is In the statement is not now known, but it
Is sincerely hoped by those who have dis
couraged anything that promised bloodshed
that the royalists VIII refrain from demon
stration. for they surely cannot succeed in
accomplishing that which seems to be the
desire Of only few-and they. perhaps. the
least desirable of all the residents OF Hawaii.

suPaEME COURT DECISION.
A Man Who Makes a Settlement Must
Be Sure IL is Right.

Be Sure 1t is Right.
The Supreme Court has rendered de-
cision in the case of James F. Clarkson,
respondent VS.. Perry Hoyt appellant. a
Siskiyou County case.
1t was an action to recover 81 1863 on a
promissory note given by Hoyt to Clark
son. The latter was put by Hoyt. in 1880,
in charge of one of hs stock farms in
Oregon. He continued there till 1888,
when he resigned his position. He had
previously asked for and obtained set
tlement with his employer, and the note
was given at the time on his representa-
ton that everything on the place was in
first rate condition.
Hoyt claimed that on investigation
afterwards he found many of Clark sons
representations untrue. and also that he
had sold cattle, mules and horses, and
had not made any accounting for them
aud that so far from his being indebted to
Clarkson at the time the note was given
the latter was really indebted to him
about $4,000. The court below, however,
found against him and rendered judg-
ment i'll favor of Clarkson. From the
Judgment and order denying a new trial
he appealed. Various errors were as
signed as basis of appeal, but the Su-
preme Court declares all the rulings of
the lower court right and orders that the
judgment and order appealed from be
confirmed,

ARARE OPPORTUNITY
Good Agricultural Land for $40
to 500 per Acre.


The Pacific Improvement Company has re-
Gently purchased twelve thousand ceres Of
land in the heart of Tehama County for the
purpose of promoting subdivision and settle
ment. This land embraces lands from first
class Sacramento Valley agricultural land to
land of fair average quality and is offered at
from SO to $40 per acre, in subdivisions of
40, 80, 12O, 16o and $40 acres.
The terms upon which these lands are offered
are especially attractive. They will be sold in
subdivisions, as above indicated, by the pay
ment of interest only for three years at which
time the purchaser can begin the payment of
principal by paying the first OF five equal an
nual installments. Thus no part Of the prin-
cipal is to be paid tor three years, and then
the purchaser is to have five years in which TO
pay five equal annual installments, with In.
terest at the rate of per cent. per annum,
making payments extending over a period Of
eight years. Intending purchasers are as
sured that this is an opportunity to purchase
land OF fair average quality at SO per acre.
and good agricultural land at $50 an acre,
with other grades Of land at prices to CORE
spond between these figures.
The assertion is frequently made that good
lands, suitable for general farming. and es-
pecially adapted for fruit-growing, cannot be
had in California for less than from $50 to
500 an acre. An examination of the land
subject of this advertisement will prove to
home-seekers that this is an opportunity for
the purchase of good agricultural land at $40
an acre. and for qualities grading down 10 fair
agricultural land at $40 an acre. on terms Of
payment which should make the disposition
Of these lands to actual settlers result easy of
accomplishment.
The primary object of the purchase of this
body of land was the breaking up Of large
holding for the purpose of promoting its set
tlement in smaller quantities and its devotion
TO diligent husbandry.
