NOT SOCIALIST, BUT JUSTICE

A communication appeared in The
Sunday Herald from Professor James g.
Clarke in which the writer refers approx
ingly to the Herald's recent expose OF
the Standard Oil companys short meas
ursmsnt swindle systematically perpe-
trated upon the people. Professor Clarke
mentioned three reasons why ne thinks
the swindle will never be done away with,
one of his reasons being that govern
mental interference with it would be
socialism,
The professor, whose heart Is in the
right place, and head generally, not
always clear on economic propositions,
evidently intended to nit those who OPP
pose or have failed to endorse socialism.
His idea as TO the proper functions of
a civil government is of the socialistic
brand, and therefore at variance with the
law of personal freedom. which law is
the antithesis OF socialism. II is the
province, nay more, the sacred duty of
civil government to protect the people
in the exercise of all their naturul rights,
and to punish. If need be. any man or
com bination of men that swindles anyone
else. A government that fails to do that.
oo6A oStS pioiu ousyp tho pSoPio
themselves, who make their own govern
ment and bold in their hands all politi-
cal power, are grossly to blame for such
dereliction of duty. The official punish
ment of crimes and msdemeanors is not
socialism, no matter whether the vffense
committed IS murder o: swindling by the
use of dishonest oil cans. Perhaps Pro-
lessor Clarke imagines that the proper
remedy for the oil can swindle could be
found in the government itself controll-
ing and carrying on the oil producing in
dustry. If su The Herald does not agree
with him. Any business that is not from
the nature of it monopoly should be
conducted by private parties. The oil
business itself Is not natural monopoly
but like every other powerful and per-
manent monopoly 1t is based upon
monopoly OF natural resources. Legisla-
ton thai would loosen tho grip of the
Standard Oil octopus on natures ele.
ments would destroy the root of the
monopoly itself. And that, for obvious
reasons. would be far better than for the
government itself to engage in the oil
business.
Mr.. Rockefeller's monopolistic corpora
ton rests upon the exclusive possession
or control of natural opportunities, with
out which it could not possibly retain its
grasp upon the purses of the people.
Whenever its control of the oil lands of
the country IS broken up it will cease to
be the great engine OF oppression that it
now is. Legislation which would produce
that result would noe be socialism but
simply justice. "Only that and nothing

Los Angeles county.

Suit some specimen instances OF off
cial delinquency, official usurpation and
official robbing OF the county treasury
were ventilated.
A more fragrant instance of officials ex.
ceeding their legal powers can hardly be
found in the history of this county than
the one in which the supervisors of 1891
created the Office of county liceuse tax
collector. As the result of this abuse of
supervisorial powers an avenue tor the es-
cape OF more than $4,000 was afforded.
That this money has not been rscaptured
is the fault of the present law officer OF
the county.
The state supreme court having de-
clared in the suit brought by District Az
ttorney Dillon to enloln the payment of
tho license TAX collector salary that the
supervisors had no legal right to create
such an office and that therefore the man
holding it Was not entitled to the alary.
Hodgman, the individual appointed to
ill the special billet, should have made
restitution OF the amounts paid him as
salary, and when lie failed to do so the
district attorney should have brought
suit Tor the sum.
The act of the Legislature which at
tempted to legalize the payment of salary
to an officer who could not legally exist
should have in no way deferred Major
Donnell from undertaking the recovery
of the coin Of the taxpayers, for every
lawyer and layman who has given that
act consideration in the light of the state
constitution knows that it is an outra-
geous and dangerous violation OF the
organic law of the commonwealth.
The supervisors exceeded their author
ity in the creation Of an Office; the
man appointed to that off ce drew salary
to which he had 10 legal right; every
dollar that ne received should be returned
to the county treasury, and it is the duty
of District Attorney Donnell to see that
the return is made.
The facility and grace with which the
coroner of the county and his stenogra-
pher extract money TO which they are Iot
entitled from the strong box of the coun.
~ are also edifying to the people who
put up the ducats for running our some
