HIS RIGHTS OVERLOOKED.

Why q Man Convicted of n Namsless
Crime Gets a Now Trial.
An opinion by the supreme court re-
versing @ decision in Kern county case
was received in Los Angeles yesterday
for filing. It was the case OF People,
respondent, vs. VIM. H. Moore, appel
liant. Moore was convicted of an un-
mentionable offense, and was sentenced
to suffer the very severe penalty of i'm
prisonment in the state prison for the
term OF Al years. Moore had no coun-
eel in the superior court. Afterwards
he secured an attorney to take an APP
peal for him. being compelled to rely on
the judgment roll.
The supreme court says in regard to
the case: 1.-THE offense charged in this
case is in its nature coarse and detesta-
BILE. but is an offense easily charged and
difficult to disprove; it affords great
facility for false accusation made for
the purpose of revenge snd injury, and
usually its proof depends mainly upon

AN ABSURD STORY.
Somebody Pnlmed Fake on on the
London Times.

Somebody Pnimed a Fake on on the
London Times.
CHICAGO, Aug. 19.-Ths story to the
London Times reported by cable to the
effect that Judge Thomas A. Moran,
Hon. William j. Hines and ex.Alder.
man j. Smythe Of this city were active
members of the Clsn.na-Gael was re-.
ceived here with considerable hilarity.
The local papers burlesque the story
and publish humorous interviews with
Mr.. Smythe, the only one of the gentle
men at present in the city. Mr.. Hines,
tits shown, so far from being connected
with the Clan-na-Gael, was prominently
identified with the attempt to fasten
the assassination of DR.. Cronin upon
that organization, and Judge Moran is
at this moment risking incarceration in
q London dungeon by openly appearing
on the Etreets of that city during his
summer outing abroad.

THE DEEP SEA HARBoR BOOMERANG.

Perhaps one OF the most eccentric fea-
lures OF the late Democratic county
convention was it's open declaration OF
war against Santa Monica. There were
no "ifs and butts" about the attitude of
that body on the question of deep sea
harbor. The people OF the western
portion OF the city, which is stretching
down to meet Santa Monica, and the
people of Santa Monica, who are equally
emuloua to clasp hands with, those of the
Angel city, are punched together, in
effect, as tools OF the Southern Pacific
Railway. This designation also applies
to the large population of the foothills
along the Cshcengs range, comprising
such prosperous settlements as Cole
grove and others, together with g nu-
rnerous and thrifty farming population.
And all of this simply because Santa
Monica aspirss to have the congress OF
the United States locate the deep sea
harbor, which 10 projected near Los
Angeles, at the City by the Sea. 1t
is coolly assumed that the Southern
| L
and its approaches, while as a
matter OF fact, the property interests Of
that corporation are very much larger
at San Pedro than at Santa Monica. 1t
ia also assumed that the Southern Pa.
oific Railway company aims to establish
monopoly of the water front at Santa
Monica while in truth that corporation
could not do 80 if it would, and has re-
peatedly offered to enter into stipula-
tions giving another railway company
equal privileges with itself On the wharf
built by Southern Pacific money ct
enormous expense. The Southern Pa
cifc Railway mas transferred its business
to Santa Monica simply because it
recognizes the immense superiority OF
that bay for the purposes of great
transcontinental commerce. The at
tempt to inject the Southern Pacific ia-
cue in this offensive shape az Demo-
cratic issue cannot fail to react disas-
trously OF the Democratic vote in the
regions named. &T. Mooser, the lead
ing representative OF Santa Monica,
withdrew flom the convention after an
Intellectual effort to stem this foolish ac-
ton, and the telegraph advised US that
he received an ovation on reaching the
City by the Sea. The ominors iniorma-
ton also reaches US that the whole pop
ulation of that section will be aolidified
against q party which has causelessly
made such an unjust and partial dis
elimination.

The fact that the Chicago alderme n
are striking for salaries of $4,000 O year
has aroused the animosities OF the tax
payes of that city. who do not take
kindly to the new-fanglsd proposition.
Ii those gentlemen would only take
that amount of salary and be content
with it and not try to stesl anything be-
sidss their salaries, the taxpayers of the
Windy City could we'll afford to hire
them for that. White man berry on

the old adage; and it is hardly within
the range OF human confidence that a
Chicago alderman should be expected to
possess common honesty.

atty imposed induce us to look closely
into the only record which appellants
counsel on the appeal could bring here"
The court finds that the objections to
the sufficiency of the information and
the showing of the jurisdiction of the
court are not well taken, but holds that
under the circumstances OF this particu-

court should be reversed, for its failure
to inform the appellant OF his rights

THE SINGLE TAKERS.


A. j. Grsgg's Address on tho subj &c,
Last Night.
Last night at Unity church the Single
Tax club met a large audience anxious
hear from Mr.. A. J. Gregg, the PopulIst
candidate for lieutensnt-governor. MIR.
Gregg spoke substantially as follows:
The progress of the last century in
labor-saving machinery and the arts has
brought about a new relation between
labor and it's products. The condition
Of this new relation must be met, and
am glad to see the univereal discomfort
of the voters which exists today.
The Populist platform adopted at
Omaha contains the germ of the single
tax whom it says: Tho land belongs to
all the people, and shall not be held for
speculation"
Land lie an absolutely necessary factor
in the production of wealth. Labor is
also absolutely necessary. Capital Ia not
absolutely necessary. Adam had no
capitalist to employ his labor. Capital
does not employ labor it is labor which
employs capital. Capital is helpless
without labor, but labor can produce all
ita wealth by access to land, even pro-
duce capital il it needs it; in fact ell
existing capital has been produced by
labor, and promptly taxed away from
the leborer by governments and special
privilege owners.
Single tax is right because II will
equalizs natures bounties to all the
people.
Most assuredly will the public take
back its heritage-the use Of the land.
1t will be done, and done soon, too.
The only question remains-by what
method? We think by the method of
the single tax, because it is the best.
Why 10 the land of Los Angeles assessed
$4,000, 900 higher this year THAI last
year? 1t pimply means that labor pro-
duced s10.000.000 moro wealth this year
than it received in pay. That value is
added to The land snd land owners get
it. II we had single tax the laborere
would get that value into their public
treasury.
Most gigantic incomes of the world
come out of the land. The Aetore got
nearly all their income from rent.
Wherever the single tax has been tried
the only objectors have been the
owners and spectators in land. II was
so ct Hyattsville. Nd, also in New Tea
land.
Ssven-eighths OF all the land values in
the state of Massachusetts exist in the
cities of that state. Would the farmer
pay the single tax? The single tax
would be certain; it would be wise; it
would be equal it would be just. What
more do you ask of tax?
A vote of thanks was then rendered
the speaker of the evening for his able
single tax address.
