sentence was a year at hard labor at
san Quentin and a fine of 500. The
community was ablaze with excitement
over the outcome, and looked upon
Black as a legal wizard. To send a
promineuts San Franciscan 70 prison
would cause only a ripple compared
with the agitation of a smaller cOmmu-
nifty when one of its leading men,
known to practically every one in the
county, with a highly respected family,
is sentenced. 1t was a stunning blow.
Efforts viii be made to have Moore
pardoned, and it is not likely that the
government viii oppose the move
ment. It is felt that the moral effect
of his conviction is so tremendous that
for many years to come there will be
no false swearing i'm regard to taking
up Humboldt county land Graham
who is employed by the Russ estate,
which owns thousands of acres of land
in Humboldt was tried for subornation
of perjury but the grand jury dis
agreed While it was certain that
Moore had sworn falsely. it could not
be definitely proved that it was at

more remarkable from the fact that
the crime is a most ordinary one-per-
jury in a land case. John \. Moore,
the man convicted, is wealthy, a man
of family highly respected. an eX-su-
pervisor, and a leader in the republic
can party. His crime consisted in
swearing that one William Graham
had fulfilled the legal requirements in
improving and residing on a piece of
government land which he had taken
up" Graham huddled a few logs to-
sether in the shape of a cabin, scatter
ed some seed over the ground, and
threw little brush in scattered heaps
in the semblance of q fence. When it
came time for him to take the last le-
gal steps toward the requirement OF
the land, Moore swore that to his per-
sonal knowledge Graham had built on
the land a. substantial cabin in which
he had lived for fourteen months; that
he had fenced the land. and cultivat-
ed it. When the federal grand jury
sitting in San Francisco indicted
Moore the people of Humboldt coun-
ty were astonished. Why" they said,
"ten thousand people in Humboldt
have done the same thing. It is a mere
fOTmality." Such was the sentiment
that prevailed when Judge J. J. de
Haven went to Eureka his old home
to try Moore and Graham. It made
the task that confronted the govern
ment prosecutor, Assistant United
States Attorney A. p. Black. a very
difficult one He found nearly every
body on Moore's side. Moore had hired
the best legal talent in the county. but
he and his friends looked upon the
trial as more of an annoyance than
anything else. Black viewed it in a
very different light. Although he had
little hope of d conviction, he buckled
in to work, taking particular care in
the selection of jury. He picked out
hard headed. literal old men, who
promised to bring a verdict strictly i'm
accordance with the law and evidence.
Even though the evidence was over
whelmingly against Moore. neither he
nor his lawyer showed any concern
over the possible result. the defense
being perfunctOry When the jury,
after being out forty-five minutes.
brought in a verdict of guilty as charg-
ed with a recommendation to the mer-
cy of the court. MoOre'slawyer turned
white, while the convicted man him
self went nearly wild with rage. The

TIE CHICKEN DISPLAY
AT TERRITORIAL FAIR
The Management Suggests a Greater
Number of Entries in the Turkey
and Duck Divisions.

The territorial fair management Is
gratifcd by the great number of en-
tries in the poultry department, es-
peciaHy i'm the chicken division. though
it is hoped that there VIII be more en-
tries of turkeys and ducks. This is
said to be one of the best turkey re
gions in the United States. That is
perhaps the reason there are so few
entries owners of turkeys perhaps
think there will be so many at the fair
that their entries viii stand a small
chance of winning. But the manage
ment announces that there viii be sew
eraI classes and two prizes in each
class. The first prize will be 81 and
the second. 81. In addition there will
be prize of s. for the biggest turkey
regardless of class.
The management has made extra
provision for the poultry display this
year. There viii be two houses instead
of one as last year, one of the cattle
barns having been arranged for this
department.

PERJURY A TRlFLE
IN CITING A FARM
Government Has Secured Conviction
of an Honest Man" in a Land Proof
Case in California.

The perjury of men who have filed
on government land and of witnesses
who have helped them in making final
proof, has in the past been so common
it hardly excited comment. 1t has
been done by people who would never
think of committing perjury under any
other circumstances and who have
done so in these cases merely because
it had become a custom. 1t was the
old idea that government land was for
anybody who could make a pretense of
formality in getting it and there grew
up a belief that even the government
officials were not particular just 50
there was an apparent attempt at com
piiance with the formalities. Thous-
ands of men, practically honest in all
other things, have filed on homesteads,
slept on the property once or twice a
year and in proving up have sworn
that they made it their home, when
perhaps they were living and engaged
in business elsewhere.
But the exposure of all kinds of land
frauds in late years has aroused the
government to activity in the exposure
of the individual Who has complied
with everything required in making
his filing, but who has perjured him
self in proving up by swearing he has
