MADIGAN GOES TO PRISON
Judge Weber Refuses him q New Trial.
He Fails to Secure Bonds, Pending an Ap
peal.
And Yesterday Morning he was Takon tt
Saltwater by Sheriff Anderson.

Last Thursday morning Michael M
Madigan appeared in Clerk of Court
Georges office, accompanied by his at
torney. to listen to the decision of Judge
Webber on the motion for new trial.
Madigan first made an effort to secure
the introduction of new evidence, but
the application was denied, and the court
proceeded to deliver its opinion. he re-
viewed carefully all Of the points raised
by the defense, and each and all of them
were overruled. The charge of drunk
enness, he said, was not apparent with
the jury during any of the sessions, and
the closest attention was all along paid
to the progress of the case. Regarding
the claim that the case had been decided
upon outside evidence, he ruled that the
affidavit of a juror regarding miscon-
duct of any of the jury or bailiffs was
not admissible, and when he came to
deal With the charge that one of the
jurymen could not understand English,
pointed out the almost impossibility in
this state, with its large foreign popula-
ton, of obtaining a jury that couldn't
be assailed in this manner if the right of
challenge was neglected. In concluding
his opinion he denied the motion for a
new trial.
The defense Immediately prepared to
secure bonds for the prisoners liberty,
pending an appeal, and Saturday after
noon was fixed as the time for approx
ing If the sureties. Saturday afternoon
came, Madigan was on hand, but no
bondsmen. Henry Schleuder hadsigned
on Thursday, but the defendant was I'M
able to secure another. Accordingly he
gave himself up. and was placed in the
county Jail until Yesterday morning when
Sheriff Anderson took him to Saltwater.
It is understood that the appeal to the
Supreme Court will be made by his at
torneys nevertheless, and a month or
more may be consumed before Adhesion
isreached.

The Income Tax ~ Glass Legislation.

Equality of taxation of all persons
and property brought into open compe-
tition under like circumstances is neces-
sary to produce equality of condition for
all, in all production, and in all the en-
joyments of life, liberty. and property.
And government, whatever name it
may assuine, is despotism, and COM
mits acts of fragrant spoliation, if it grants
exemption or exacts greater or less rate
of tax from one man than from another
man, on account of the one owning or
having in his possession more or less of
the same class of property which is sub
ject to the tax. If it were proposed to
levy tax of two per cent on annual
incomes below $4,000 in amount,and ex-
empt all incomes above this sum, the IN :
equal and discriminating character of
the exemption would be at once appar-
ent; and yet an income tax cxemptine
all incomes below $4,000 Is equally I'M
just and discriminating. In either case
the exemption cannot be founded or
defended on any sound princidles of free
constitutional government and is simply
manifestation of tyrannical power,
under whatever form of government it
may be enforced. The great republican
principle Of equality before the law, and
constitutional law itself, alike preclude
any exemption Of an income derived
from like property. As it is, system
Of class legislation full Of the spirit Of
communism seems to find favor with The
American people. David A. Wells, il

Madlgan's New Evidenced.

During the week there has been a
good deal said in the papers rega, ding
some new evidence which Madigan was
said to have found accidentally. Madi-
gan himself,grasping at straws as 1t were
claimed defantly that he now had the
gang foul, and many Of the papers and
the people were inclined to believe that
if justice were done him, he would win
his case and establish his innocence of
the crime of perjury. This new evidence
was filed with Judge Weber last Thurs
day and is nothing more nor less than
paper signed by P. Romness, releasing
Helgeson & Mogen from the fictitious
claim of$500 which Romness was alleged
to have against them. Madigsn claims
that the release was sent to him by
Romness, unacknowledged,a and that he
sent back blank to be filled ont and
executed In due form. This last was
taken from the clerks files by Madigan
and, according to the clerks evidence
was never returned. Madigan now
claims to have accidentally run across
this unfinished release in looking over
his old files and papers. That it bears
Romness' genuine signature there can be
no doubt, but that does not prove that
be had authorized Madigan to be his at
torney, for he was all along acting as the
friend of Helgeson & Mogen and upon
their advice. Having nothing coming
from the estate it is only natural that he
should have signed the release upon the
request of his friends, as soon as the as
signmert matter had been settled. It
does not do away with the original aft
davit, the bond for writ of attachment,
nor that mysterious receipt, which
seems to supply the motive for the whole
transaction. In fact it is of no value
whatever, other than deception.

The Great Cause of Bad Politics.

There is probably nothing from which
the public service of the country suffers
more to-day, than the silence of its edu-
Gated class; that is the small amount of
criticism which comes from disinterested
and competent sources. It is very
rare thing for an educated man to say
anything publicly about the questions Of
the day. He is absorbed in science, or
art, or literature, IN the practice of his
profession, or in the conduct of his
business; and if he has any interest at
ali in the questions of the day, it is a
languid one. He is silent because he
does not wish to embarrass the admins
tratioH or 'shurt the party" or because he
does not feel that anything he could say
would make much difference. E. L
Godkin, in the March Forum.

SAN Francisco, Jan. % 29-Saturday
is great day in the history of the
Golden state. 1t marks the formal
opening of the Midwinter exposition,
Chicago Worlds fair in miniature,
which owes it's inception to the Won
derful triumph of which the metropolis
of the west was the scene last year.
Technically the grounds have been
open for visitors since New Years
day. but the formal Inauguration was
delayed owing to the fact that many
of the buildings and exhibits
We're at that time far from ccm-
plction. BY proclamation Gov. Mark
ham declared the day legal holiday
throughout the state, and his action
was seconded by Mayor Ellert, who is
sued proclama ton closing all munic
ipal Offices and calling upon business
men of the city to close their establish
ments. This request was very gencr-
ally complied with, and between the
suspension of business and the elabo-
rate decorations and abundance Of
bunting San Francisco presented gala
appearance.
The formal exercises at the eXposi-
ton grounds We're preceded by grand
parade of the National Guard, friendly
and patriotic societies and the munich
pal departments. The procession was
several miles in length and the twenty
divisions were each headed by a brass
band. The exercises opened ut 2 o'clock
in the court of honor on the green
sward of which there was standing
room for over a hundred thousand pco-
pie A grand stand with accommoda-

FROM JAPAN.
The Soshi Advocating the Expulsion
Of Foreign Missionaries.


SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 30. - News
brought by the steamer Belgic shows
that Japan is in state of excitement,
and that bloodshed~ and violence may
be prccipitated at any time. In Japan
the anti-foreign agitation increases.
The sudden dissolution of Parliament
simply advertised the weakness of the
government. A majority of the lower
house, the ce-president of thee diet
and the Christians are all clamoring
for the enforcement of the treaty revis-
ion, which means that foreigners will
be debarred from extending trade
in the interior, and that they will be
forced to give up consular courts and
submit to The jurisdiction of Japanese
tribunals. which are notoriously preju.
| diced and corrupt. The capital is over
run with Soshi of poor scholars, who
are venomous haters of everything for
eign. They advertise to lend their SER
vices to candidates desiring election,
| for money, and they seem to be reviv-
| ing the lawless practices of the Ronins,
| who flourished under the old feudal
system in Japan.
| From these men, who are as reckless
| and desperate as European anarchists,
there is much to fear. They have al
ready made several assaults on foreign
ers in Toxic and Yokohama, and ladies
have been grossly insulted in the
streets. The Soshi are advocating the
expulsion of foreign missionaries, al
though every progressive Japanese ad.
mits that the missionaries have done
much to aid the country and to bring
in wealth. Curiously enough, many
native Christians declare that the
withdrawal of the missionaries
will help Christianity; so the
anti-foreign movement is religious
political and commercial, and it is
gaining such headway that the best
observers in Yokohama declare thai
the government will have great diff
Guilty in checking it. or in preventing
open outrages. England has dom
nothing to protect her subjects, but i
is understood Russia has declared tha
the expulsion of Foreigners from th
interior, and the closing of all eXcep
the large ports, will not be tolerated
The foreign colonies in Toxic ant
Yokohama are alarmed as the nativ
hatred is SO plainly manifested, tina
they fear street riots.
