Of that article and never saw it.
Mr.. Johnson of California think it
is fair, for this reason: That newspaper
has attacked me, and I do not believe
in this shielding of ones self behind
the name of newspaper. That news
paper is his. He is the man who is re-
sponsible for it, and he ought to be
| responsible for it. When the time comes
in these United States that a man can
shelter himself behind the name of his
newspaper and say he is not person
ally responsible for what appears in
that newspaper, the end of decency,
the end of government, the end of in
diyidual rights, will have been reached.
Mr.. Maguire-I admit Mr.. Hearst's le-
gal responsibility. T.
Mr.. LACEY should like to ask the
gentleman from California question.
in his remarks he has referred to the
difficulty of getting this DILL up. Is it
not true that the department has op-
posed the bill on the ground that the
expense would run up very high, eSti-
| mating the expense at over a million
dollars? Has there not been difficulty
in getting recognition because the bill
Sicdleu d large nuInDeT Oh OlllCeS anu
involved a very heavy expenditure of
money?
Mr.. Johnson of California-That is
true, and that is the reason why, when
| the additional expense was put on this
| till it required the bill to go to a COM
nittee-either the Committee on Public
Lands or the Committee of the Whole.
/ SO far as the question of expense is
concerned, do not think it amounts to
| anything. When a thing is right it
ought to be done, even if it does cost a
| great deal Of money.

BROKE JAIL.
Three Prisoners Escape From the Old
County BaStiIe.

Three prisoners made their escape
from the County Jail about $50 o'clock
yesterday forenoon, and two OF them,
William Harrison and w. j., alias Ed.
Creelman are still at large. e. Kinney,
alias McCarty, a burglar, was caught
in a private yard close by the jail,
where Deputies Schwilke, Smith and
Conran found him hiding under a bush.
Harrison was awaiting trial for bur
glary, and Creelman for grand lar
ceny (pocket- -picking). The latter is Is
or 20 years old, 5 feet inches in hight,
weighs 40 pounds, has hazel eyes,
light hair and a beardless face.
The men made their escape by tear
ing up some Of the flooring Of an old
water closet, beneath which they found
an excavation and hole through the
north wall of the outer yard, where a
couple of years ago some plumbers had
been at work.
After getting through the wall they
found another closet in the dispensary
yard, and by knocking out the floor Of
that and ascending to the surface they
had only to get through the dispensary
windows and travel.
One of the prisoners in the jail in
formed Jailer Beclzley shortly after the
trio had got out, and the deputies
named Immediately set off in pursuit of
them. A man who came in from La
throp on the go p. m. train was shown
a photograph of Harrison, and said he
saw a man answering that description
just as he was leaving Lathrop.
1t is thought that possibly the men
made straight for the depot and got
away on the trucks of the train leav-
ing at 1925, but the chances are they
got into the brush beyond the north
levee and worked their way up along
the American River as there is a dense
growth of willows and cottonwood
there Sheriff Johnson and his depu-
ties are doing their best to apprehend
the escapes.
The old jail is a sorry place in which
to attempt to keep desperate criminals
unless constantly confined in the iron
tanks.

He referred to the waste in road work
and told of the enormous sum spent by
Los Angeles County for roads. and for
which she has not foot Of good road
to show. All that sum had been wrung
from taxpayers, and they have nothing

Highway Commissioner Maude being
present was called upon, but declined to
speak as a Commissioner. AS an old

complished in Massachusetts,, and what
the officials of that State had related to
him concerning the work of wheelmen

OF the moral influence of the league
and of associated cleanly effort he spoke

ganizations in conserving the high

League Of American Wheelmen.
Remarks were then made by a num-
Der of members, questions asked and

sisting of NJ S. Lavenson, 3. McDon-
aid and George Readman, was named
to cooperate with Consul Dwyer in Sc
curing such a percentage of G. G. w.
members to unite with the league that
the club will be recognized as league
club.
Samples Of the resolution signed
in Southern California for the formation
of local Good Roads Leagues were
shown and read, and the question of
forming a similar leagu6here was taken
up. The club felt that it should not
move alone; that its object might be
misunderstood if 1t did so, but it re
solved that it would gladly cooperate
with citizens and associations generally
to form such leagues in Central Califor-
mia, in order to educate public senti-
ment on the subject, that wise legisla-
tion may be secured. To that end it
expressed the wish to have the Sacra-

pecially the Sacramento County HUI
name Society, which originated the
good roads agitation in California, to
cooperate in taking the initiative. To
that end the club named Messrs. La
