THEY ARE NOT PURBLIND..

1t seems to us that citizens of Sacra-
mento County are purblind who cannot
see the necessity for a strong Sacra-
mento torepresentation in the approaching
Legislature; that he is daft who does not
realize that the Republican party mas
put forward far and away the stronger
nominees, those who are better and
more capable in all ways for local as
well as for State and national interests.
Two of the nominees are old-time leg
islators in Senate and Assembly, and
one of them in Congress. The third
is a young business man of success,
good presence, broad intelligence and
irreproachable life. Thus the nominees
referred to insure Sacramento steadi-
ness, reliability, experience and the
wisdom Of both age and youth. To de-
feat such a delegation would argue

A POPULIST TO POPULISTS.

Here is Mr.. J. v. Webster, a farmer,
who has been especially prominent in
political life, and was a Populist cam
didate for Governor Of California, de-
claring that he is entirely familiar with
the single tax doctrine, he has often
discussed ii with Henry George, and
long ago made study of it. He is
convinced of its unreason and imprac-
ticability, as we'll as that Mr.. Ma
guire's candidacy means advancement
of the single tax-that and nothing
more. Therefore Mr.. Webster declines
to support the fusion nominee He
openly charges Mr.. Mcguire and the
fusionists with insinceritv. and in
caustic expression upon the subject ad-
dressed to old-line Populists he ad-
vises them to stand aloof from the
fusion ticket. This may be termed a
shot in the center. No one will doubt
the sincerity of Mr.. Webster or the
honesty OF his convictions.

Will Mr.. White Explain?

The Stockton Independent" in it's
search for political light, propounds
the following pertinent questions to
Stephen M. White:
Candidate James G. Mcguire has
in his public speeches dwelt at con-
siderable length on the railroad oues-
ton, and denounced the Republican
party for doing the bidding of Coils
P. Huntington and being in collusion
with the railroad company when Con-
gress adopted the Senate amendment
to the deficiency bill, providing for a
commission of Cabinet members to ar
range settlement Of the Central Pa
cific debt. Now, Senator White, you
are in a position to inform the people
whether or not James G.. Maguire's
charges are true. You and Senator
Morgan are responsible for that amend
ment. Was 1t introduced in the inter-
est Of the Southern Pacific Railroad ?
Did you offer your amendment at the
request Of the railroad? Did you and
other Senators refrain from objections
at the instance of Coils P Hunting
ton of the Southern Pacific Railroad
In other words, Senator White, were
you and Senator Morgan and other
members Of the Senate bought up by
the railroad company to force this rid
er on the deficiency bill and take snap
Judgment on Judge Mcguire and other
innocent Democrats Of the House of
Representatives These intimations are
contained in Maguire's speeches, not
aginst you, but against the Republic
ans-and now we come to one of the
authors of the measure to tell us the
truth Is this charge Of Maguire's
true-and if true shall we withdraw
him-the one honest anti-railroad man,
from Congress and make him Gov
ernor?"
The record-union., 1898-10-28

Mr.. Mcguire, following the dictum of
Mr.. George, insists that the ownership
of land by the individual is in viola
ton of the laws of God. Let us ask,
with all becoming modesty, how Mr..
Mcguire found it out? How has it
school to know what the laws of God
are concerning land? Such record as
we have gives it out that the Lord
very frequently gave to tribes Of men
land to have and to hold. He recog-
nized titles to land, because, If the bib
hcal record goes for anything, He Gre

THE BOTKIN CASE.


of San Francisco, sitting in bank, in
the Botkin murder case, is that the
woman cannot be extradited to Della
ware; that this is the law, because the
fathers, in providing for the recovery
of the prisoners of one State from the
jurisdiction of another, did not foresee
case in which there would be such a
demand without the defendant in the
Jurisdiction.
The constitutional and legislative
provisions Of the law, both national
and State are all coupled with the ex-
to be extradited must have escaped
from the demanding State Under the
law as it is, If this requirement is ig-
nored under the plea of constructive
fugitivism," then the lines of~the codes
and Constitutions will be left, byl ig
noring express declarations, in shape
that will permit any State by alleging
that the citizen Of another State js
charged with extraditable crime, In
the demanding the removal of the party
at any time, and his transportation out
of his home surroundings and away
from the protection of his State citi-
zenship.
Mrs. Botkin Is charged with having
killed Mrs. Dunning, by sending to her
from California a package Of confec-
tions which were poisoned, and which
the victim received in Delaware. The
law as it stands, as we have said, per-
nits the seizure and transportation Of
one charged with crime to the jurisdic-
ton of the demanding State, only
when the party is refugee from jus
tice and has fed consciously or un-
consciously from the jurisdiction of the
demanding State. This this woman has
not done.
We believe that Mrs. Botkin ought to
be tried in Delaware where the alleged
crime was consummated. But she has
never been in Delaware; she has not
therefore fed from that State; she can
not be recovered TO that State, because
it never had jurisdiction over her. She
must then be tried in California, where,
If guilty, she concocted the crime and
began it's performance.
That is the law as it is, and If it is
desirable, and 1t is, to have it otherwise,
1t is within the power Of Congress and
of the States to so legislate as to cover
just such cases. Certainly the Superior
Court of San Francisco is right in say
ing that a fugitive from justice is one
who has fed; that when the law pro-
vides that one may be returned to a
State for trial who has fed from it to
evade justice, it must be shown in case
OF demand under such a law that the
party sought has actually fed from the
demanding State.
Without this law 1t may be well
enough feared that at any moment up
on the complaint of some one in dis
tant State, any citizen of California
could be snatched up and transported
to a strange jurisdiction without op-
portunity to defend himself, and be de-
prived of inalienable rights essential to
the security Of his person and his life.
Yet, as we have said, it would be wise
to provide by law for extradition in
cases of the peculiar character of that
of Mrs. Botkin.
