property.
Newsboys from the Pittsburg home
were at the farm of Robert G. Hall,
near Aspinwall, yesterday for an out
ing. When the car was in Sharpsburg
the conductor noticed package
wrapped up in a newspaper on the seat.
The package looked as though it might
be lunch. Harry Mckenzie, sitting in
the corner, had visions of pie and
begged the conductor to give him the
package. The conductor at once COM
piled.
When only short distance from the
car Harry was accosted by stranger
who asked him what he had in the
package. Harry said lunch" but the
stranger doubted. At length the pack
age was opened, and the crisp new bills
almost tumbled out. The stranger
claimed the package, saying that he
was a paymaster for the T. A. Gillespie
company on the filtration work near
Aspinwall, and was on his way to pay
the foreign laborers when he lost the
package of money. He was so glad to
get his money back that he fled with
the package under his arm without a
word to poor Harry, whose visions of
pies flcated slowly skyward.

Advocates Free Harbor
Rarhonr said ln part:


Mr.. Barbour said In part:
",rhe city we live in Is in an inter-
esting period. We are making history.
In the days of the old pueblo the
grandees looked to increase of flocks
and herds and there their ambition
ceased. In the days of 80 to $50, with
which many of you gentlemen are ia
miliar, it was a decade Of possibilities
and probabilities. Today the .proba-
bilities of that decade have become
certainties.
Los Angeles is a great city and is
becoming greater. The farm, the ham
let and the workshop of the east are
coming in tens, hundreds and thou
sands and all bids fair to a population
of a million people. Our probabilities
are commercial supremacy of the south
Pacific and control Of the orient, but,
to make these probabilities certain
ties, we must protect and control our
water frontage. Our harbor must be
protected our facilities increased. Add
TO the seven miles of frontage reported
by Captain Meyler six miles more of
probable development In the neighbor-
hood of Long Beach and we have q
greater harbor than San Francisco and
are in a position to handle the products
of the south and receive from and ship
to the orient the great commerce OF
the coming century. The public IS
aroused. 1t is beginning to know, as
you gentlemen know, the true condi-
tion of affairs.
do not think that am an alarmist,
but when a corporation receives freight
at its piers in San Pedro and refuses
to deliver to the wagon of the local
merchant at the wharf, but compels
him to receive his goods at a street
800 feet distant, and adds % cents
charge per hundred, it is time some
thing was done. When the merchants
of Los Angeles can receive freight as
cheap from San Diego as from San
Pedro it is also time something was
done.
'As I stand here this noon I am
thinking of those days you and I do
not remember, the days of '76, when
little band of men in little harbor
called Boston, on the Atlantic coast,
for a far lesser taxation, threw the
cargoes of tea overheard; and L am
also thinking of the words of that
great Virginian when he said: Eter-
nal vigilance is the price of liberty.
This country must and shall be free
And in closing l paraprase by saying
Eternal vigilance is the price of com
mercial supremacy. This harbor must
and shall be free!'

CATTLEMEN TO MAKE
RAID ON PUBLIC LANDS

A wholesale raid is in evidence at

allowing II man to take up square
mile of government land in South Da-
kota and in Colorado respectively and
permitting those who mny have already
made 1850 acre homestead entry to
make an additional entry of 4S0 acres
The claim has been persistently made
by western land men that man can
not make home and living on 16O
acres anywhere in the west, and so this
square mile home plan is brought for
ward a. means OF getting the public
domain into private ownership as rap
idly as possible. The question is, even
assuming that $40 acres is not too large
a farm for the government to give
citizen, to whom will this land go?
The bills above mentioned are mod
eled after the Kinkaid law, which ap-
plies the 640-acre unit to western Me-
braska and was slipped through con-
gress at the tail end OF last session.
Yet 1t was not thirty days before 1t was
charged that under this law the Ne
braska cattlemen had secured about
all they wanted in Nebraska. The Kin
kaid law and the above bills provide
that where a man has 160- acre entry,
or mere filing on 100 acres, he
shall have the preference right to enter
an adjoining 4s0 acres, and in Nebras-
ka the cattlemen are alleged to have
"entered, through their employees,
their choice Of the lands, SO that -
soon as the law passed, they simply
had to apply in each case for the con-
tiguous 4S0 acres. 1t takes but few

expenses incident to the meeting.
Evangelist Sunday is confident he
will be able to raise an amount suffi-
cient TO cover all expenses from col

devoted to reimbursing the original
subscribers TO the expense fund.
