EXCOR|ATEs THE
s. P CANDIDATE
JUDGE MOVES DELIVERS A
RINGING SPEECH
Defes Parasites to Deny Charges.
Says Criminal Putocrat Should
Be Shackled with Law
breaking Pauper

In a ringing address before large
audience at Monrovia last night Judge
Charles j. Noyes delivered scathing
inVectiYe against the Standard OH
power as it was seeking to throttle the
state of California. The speaker de-
nounced the thieves in high places and
declared them to be as guilty before the
law as their lesser fellow criminals. He
said in part: :
when the criminal plutocrat Is
shackled with the criminal pauper and
the bribe giver is chained to the bribe
taker, we will realize that the ends of
Justice have been truly attained If
w. r. Herrin, either directly or indi-
rectly, bribed Abe Ruef to deliver his
own or any other votes to Gillett at
Santa Cruz, as charged, the justice of
the case will never obtain until both
of these men are lashed with the whip
of public and legal condemnation. The
law was made to reach Herrin and Ruef
Just as 1t was made to reach the gutter
snipe politicians south of Market street,
whose votes were bartered for.
1.-THE fundamental principle of repub-
lican government Is equality and equal
opportunity. There is no divine right
in government except 1t be the divine
right of lf-government. The myth Of
regal prerogative among free men re-
ceived it's final quietus on American
soil when our forefathers declared that
all men, kings and peasants, plutocrats
and paupers, were not only free but
equal. This is the genius Of our gov
ernment, and 1t is as inalienable as 1t
is righteous. The law is made for all
and not for a few. 1t is made for the
masses and not for the individual. If
1t is to be enforced against all men,
then no guilty man should escape.
Usurps Government Functions
"The truth is, the Standard Oil COM
pany and its allied interests have be-
come so irresistibly potential that they
are virtually usurping the functions OF
They have also become
so unqualifedly vicious and criminal in
their depredations ON the rights of the
people that the institutions for which
our forefathers wrought are fast becom-
ing but the perverted instrumentalities
of oppression.
Corporations are soulless because
Los Angeles herald., 1906-11-02

the individual may hide his identity
behind this organized entity. Many
men never experience the 'pangs of re-
proving conscience for their misdeeds
until they are detected. Security lends
enchantment to their feelings
"It is these interstate corporation
magnates from the Standard Oil corn
pany down to the railroad hirelings IN
our cities that are today debauching our
politics and running the government in
the interest of predatory wealth. They
have tried to elect presidents but their
efforts terminated in ignominious fall
use. They own and control absolutely
the senate of the United States from
Aldrich, the leader of the Republican
majority, to Bailey, their Democratic
understrapper. They control with q
mailed hand the controlling power of
that once august body of men, and
mold it's action as unerringly as the art
ist does his clay.
Analyses Convention
'It is denied that the Santa Cruz
convention was dominated by the
Southern Pacific railroad. Let us eXam-
inc this proposition for a moment and
discuss the features of that convention
and the men who controlled it. In the
first place, to what crowd does w. f.
Herrin belong? To what crowd does
this man Parker belong? And what did
they have to do with the deliberations
of that assembage? 1t is notoriously
true, as has been charged by others and
confessed by themselves, that they alb
solutely controlled by one method or
another a preponderating majority Of
the votes in that convention. They
manipulated the different delegations
with a ee-shell-game deXterity and
handed out the nominations to their
different faVorites with as much nom
chalance as a peanut vender would his
wares. Every candidate from governor
to school superintendent. these two
men dictated without restraint and in
defiance of the expressed wish of the
party of the state of Cali
fornia. And it was all done through
the dictation, first, of the Standard Oil
company at 27 Wall street, New York,
and then passing on down through
the Southern Pacific to Mr.. HarrimaH
and his man Herrin.
"W. f. Herrin is simply the sub
sidized agent of this almost omnipo-
tent power. He controls Parker, even
as Parker controls his understrappers,
and all of them are the minions of the
corrupt crowd of millionaire thieves
who have recently been exposed in the
insurance Investigations in New York.
AS / have said, the Republican party
had no voice in the selection of cam
didate in the convention in California.
The Southern Pacific railroad nominat-
ed Gillett, but turned down In cold dis
dain the peoples choice such men as
Judge Gray of our own appellate court,
Judge Buckles of the Second dis
trict appellate court, and Judge Harri-
son of San Francisco-men whose exalt-
ed services and splendid abilities have
confessedly won for them the respect
and the admiration OF the people.
ellIett Protests in Vain
"Mr Gillett protests that he is not a
railroad man. Let us see to what ex-
tent the facts bear with his assertions.
There were two candidates before the

hilate and destroy the advantages to
the Pacific coast resulting from the
Panama canal; to deprive us of every
particle of advantage contemplated by
that great project in order to steal the
uncounted millions of dollars now an
nually contributed to these railroad
corporations in extortionate transcon-
tinental rates. They propose to pre-
vent any and all competition between
the Panama canal and their own roads.
They propose to reduce US all-every
producer and consumer on the Pa
cific coast-to state of commercial
slavery utterly abject and helpless.
Would Throttle San Pedro
"The question is how can they gain and
maintain control of the San Pedro
water front. Now the state of Cali
fornia owns this entire water front
between mean high and mean low tide.
If the railroads can get laws passed
granting them the exclusive right to
traffic in all of the California harbors
they will be able to take actual possess
sion of the property of the state and
to run their lines so that no possible
competition can be inaugurated by in
other methods known to water trans
portation. BY so doing they will as
completely block and annihilate COM
petition by way of the Panama canal
as though that canal had never been
constructed. This is just what the
railroads are attempting to effectuate
by controlling the Santa Cruz conven-
ton and to virtually nominate and
elect, if they can, Gillett as well as the
majority of the legislature of Califor-
mia.
IF such conspiracies as the one now
in process of fulfillment by these trans
continental railroads are to eventuate
In hrlf nnI estfn md fn flNaa rstaaR
tion of all hope on the part of the
people, we can confidently presage the
same end when French blood filled the
cutters of Paris a century ago. The
only way to evade this impending and
sanguinary catastrophe is in the en-
lightened Judgment of the people crys-
tallized into laws by patriotic and
honest public sentiment OF public
servants who fear God, but who do not
fear either man or the DEVIL"

LONDON, Nov. 1. The following

London office of the Associated Press
and Richard Croker at Dundrum, Ire

"Richard Croker, Dundrum, Ireland:

In the interview published in the
Freemans Journal of Dublin Mr.. Gro

of trusts. He expressed the belief that
If william Randolph Hearst wins and
carries out his program the effect would
be to paralyze capital and thereby par
alyze labor, because capitalists would
be compelled to invest in government
bonds or stocks,
"How do you account for Tammany
Hall supporting Mr. Hearst?" was
asked.
II think it was most astonishing
and uprinciped performance for Tam
many Hall to turn its delegation over
for Mr.. Hearst when he accused them
all of being thieves and pictured them
going to state prison, and to ignore
that true Jeffersonian Democrat, Mr.
Sulzer 1 cannot understand why Mr..
Murphy would allow the organization
to depart from its recognized principles.
Would it not be better for Tammany
Hall to be defeated fighting for princi-
Pile than to dishonor itself by outraging

dents own state, the voters shall re-
ject Mr.. Hughes, who was the presi-
dents own choice for the nomination,
should elect to that great office an un-
worthy demagogue in the person Of
Mr.. Hearst.
"The immediate and necessary effect
of Mr.. Hearsts election would be to
deprive the president of the moral
support of the state of New York; it
would be to strengthen the presidents
enemies and opponents and to weaken
and embarrass him in the pursuit of
his policy. 1t would invitably lead to
reaction against all true reform and
genuine redress of grievances"

What Hearst Papers Said

Mckinley condones the treacherous
murder of our sailors at Havana and
talks of his confidence in the honor of
Spain. He plays the coward and shiv-
ers white-faced at the football of a
processing war. He makes an inter-
national cur of his country. He is an
abject, weak, futile, incompetent pol
troon.'
= Mckinley, bar one girthy Princeton
person who came to be no more or
less than a living, breathing crime in
breeches, is therefore the most de-
spised and hated creature in the hemi-
sphere his name dishonored, his fig
ure is burning in effigy.'

Institutions. like men, will last
until they die, and if bad institutions
and bad men can be got rid of only
by killing, then the killing must be
done
what wonder that the weak and ex-
citable brain of Czolgosz answered to
such impulses as these said the
speaker. "He never knew Mckinley;
he had no real or fancied wrongs of
his own to avenge against Mckinley
or McKinley's government; he was an

rs there no one left who loved Nc
Kinley? Are there workingmen in New
York who can see with satisfaction
honors heaped upon the man who is
not guiltless of Mckinley's death?
Same Teachings Continued
"The same kind of teaching is now
being continued month by month and
day by day by the Hearst journals. Its
legitimate consequences, IL continued,
must be other weak dupes playing the
role of Czolgosz: other McKinleys

Mr.. Root urged his auditors to return

tiVes to work with President Roosevelt
In the next congress.
'"The evils which have come with the
enormous increase in corporate wealth
i'm recent years are real and serious" /"
said he. "There have been many out

Can hypocrisy go further than the
willing beneficiary of Tammany Hall
preaching political purity?
"How stands his record as a legtS-
lator? He had opportunity to prove
his capacity and sincerity in that field.
Representatives are sent to congress
to attend to the business of the coun-
try. Mr.. Hearst was sent 70 congress
to do that he had an opportunity then
to show how much sincerity there was
in all the talk of his papers about re-
forms and better government.
''What did he do? Why, he did moth

and was present without voting at

HE is so rich that the $4,000 paid
him for that neglected service may
seem of no consequence, but no hon

right to take it.

Mr. Hearst only by the newspapers he
publishers, and God forbid that we

miration and imitation of our children.
the man whose character is reflected
in the columns of the New York Jour-
nal and the New York American.
But the worst of Mr.. Hearst" said
Mr.. Root, "is that with his great
wealth, with his great newspapers,
with his army of paid age is, for his
own selfish purposes he has been day
by day and year by year sowing the
seeds of dissension, strife and hatred
throughout our land.
"TIe would array labor against
capital and capital against labor;
poverty against wealth and wealth
against poverty, with bitter and
vindictive feeling; he would destroy
among the great mass of our people
that kindly and friendly spirit, that
consideration for the interests and
rights of others. that brotherhood of
citizenship which are essential to the
peaceful conduct of free popular gov
ernment.
What public servant honored by the
people's trust has he not assailed with
~s,~aand vulgar epithets; what branch
OF our free government has he not
taught his readers to believe a COR
rupt agency of this oppression?'
Continuing on this question Mr.. Root
said:
"Only once has this method of incen-
diary abuse wrought out it's natural
consequ. gce-in the murder Of Presi-
dent Mckinley.
For years, by vile epithets and viler
cartoons, the readers of the Journal
were taught to believe that Mckinley
was monster in human form, whose
taking off would be a service to man
kind. Let me quote some of these
teachings:
