This letter is given to the public in the

abused our high school may be led to see
the error of their ways and other crying

The tender sentiment deep feeling and
unseliish devotion so touchingly referred
to in the short space OF this letter are
among the things that whirr very gently
in the land of the things that used to
be but are not.
In these degenerate days such evidence
OF attachment would be ascrbed to the

will see at glance. or half glance, that
no reference is made to the high school

The Use and Abuse of the "FIoater System
Now in Operation in This Courty.
Another Letter

One of the greatest outrages perpetrated
by the municipal authorities upon the
prisoners that fall within their power is
known as the "hoater' system.
Designed to rid the county of tlamps,
hobos and other undesirable characters,
it operates in exactly reverse direction
and effectually retains them within its
limits. The custom arose about the time
of the Coxey industrial agitation, and
has since then assumed large proportions.
= The modus operandi is simply this; If
conviction is secured against one of the
class mentioned, he is told by the Judge
to appear at stated period for sentence,
and he is then released on his own recog-
nlzance. Naturally, the accused fails to
return and the officers congratulate them
selves on good riddance.

and beneficial at one time, The present
condition of affairs but serves to Till the
sacks of the constables, and happy is tie

This has several times been amply dem
onstrated and there is at present more
than one inmate of the city prison that
can testify to the truth Of the assertion.
One of them. James Barnes. is serving a
hoater of fifty days that was incurred by
his being brought back to this city in the
hands of an officer. He was arrested in
Pom ona on petty charge, tried in this
city and acquitted. Before he had a
chance to leave town he was put in jail
to serve his fifty days. The injustice OF
this proceeding is most apparent, and
while | would not assume the defense of
a criminal. yet it seems but just that an
innocent man should not be compelled to
suffer for an offense not committed.

practiced upon the city prisoners. and it

other character. At the bottom of the

quality of oil rock. I'm all probability"
he said, there Is rich streak of oil not
far from the surface at this point. The
