.Ex-MAYOR OF FRISCO
WRONGFuLlY CONVICTED
Ofnse Charged Against Him Not Crime In California Court De-
cares-He May Obtain Bail.

San Francisco. Jan. 10-Ex- Mayor Eu-
gene u. Schmitz scored a great victory
yesterday over the reformers.
The district court OF appeals handed
down a decision holding that extortion,
OF which Schmitz was convicted In the
French restaurant case. was not an Of
fence against the laws OF the state.
The decision applies with equal force To
Abraham Ruef for tho appellate judg s
hold that compelling the French restau-
rants to pay fees" TO Ruef was not a
crime even though Ruef divided the
fees with the mayor
The news OF the decision OF the court
spread rapidly over the city. causing con-
sternation In some quarters and delight
in others
taurant cases. and pending charges of ex-
tortion against Schmitz and Rucf mus.
be dismissed.
Both are now entitled TO release on bail.
II they obtain the necessary hondsmen
they can remain at liberty until a Jury
finds them guilty on one OF tho indict-
ments charging them with receiving
bribes from corporations. Owing TO the
number of cases against them, the ba J..
estimated at $4,000 case, would reach
an enormous figure.
Schmitz and Ruef cannot take advan-
tage of the decision for 60 days. The
prosecution has 20 days In which TO ask
for rehearing. Then the appellate court
Will have 10 days TO consider the appli-
cation.
When this is done the prosecution Will
go through the same procedure in the SUI
prcme court. which will take the same
length of time. Consequently Schmitz
and Ruef will be kept I'm the county Jail
for two months more at least.
District Attorney Langdon said Schmitz
and Ruef will be prosecuted on other in
lictments that arc public offences.
The decision was written by Justice
Cooper. The opinion comments on Judge
DUNES ruling and says he erred In ad-
mitting heresay evidence.
I'm our opinion" says Justice Cooper.
"the cross-examination was entirely Inn
The news-democrat. (Providence, R.I.) 1906-1909, 1908-01-10

proper and was not confined to the mat
tors on which the defendant was exam
ined in chief"
This has reference to the answer by
schmitz respecting the payment to him
OF part OF the 5000 contributed by the
restaurants.
The attorneys for Schmitz questioned
Ruef at the trial as to whether he was
testifying I'm expectation of immunity.
Judge Dunno refused to permit any OF
these questions TO be answered, holding
that they were not proper cross-examina-
ton. The appellate court says: These
rulings were erroneous and highly preju-
dicial to the defendant"
The decision comments on Ruef having
pleaded guilty TO the Same charges and
then taking witness stand against one
who had been his friend.
His conduct" sad the appellate judges
was such that under the plain provi-
sions of the penal code his evidence was
branded so that the defendant could not
have been convicted upon II without corr
roborative testimony"
In passing upon the legality OF the in
dictment the appellate court said: '"Tho
indictment is claimed to be invalid for
two reasons: First, that 1t does not al
lege any threat to injure property. and
second, II does not allege that the threat
was TO do an unlawful injury.
There Is no allegation as to any threat
10 inJuro any business In direct terms,
but only the threat to precent the parties
from obtaining a license TO sell liquor.
license 10 sell liquor is not property
In the ordinary sense OF the word, says
the court.
Commenting on the second contention of
Schmitz's attorneys that there was no
threat to do unlawful injury. the court
declares that I'VE are clearly OF the
opinion that the indictment Is insur-
cient because II does not allege nor show
that the specific injury threatened was
an unlawful injury"
1t is not an unlawful act, reasons the
court. to threaten TO refuse the licenses
to restaurant keepers or actually to do
so.

The Long Staple Yields.

One of the most Interesting fea-
lures of this test to me is the high
yields secured from some OF the long
staple cottons and the satisfactory
yields secured from some Of our long
staple hybrids. AS an example Of
the yield from long staple varieties,
the Columbia. originated in this
State by DR.. Webber, formerly Of
the Bureau of Plant Industry OF the
Department Of Agriculture, gave the
exceedingly high yield of 1913
pounds of seed cotton per acre. This
variety is long staple, strong and
seoms to possess other good mfddling
qualities. I am having roller gin
and saw gin samples of lint pre-
pared to send to expert cotton grad
ers that I may have these different
varieties priced. in order that the
acre money-value crop may be de-
termined, rather than to assume that
the variety producing the highest
number of pounds of seed cotton is
the best.
The Best Plan is to Improve Cotton
on Your Own Soil.
On the other hand, there Is more
Importance attached to these variety
tests than they deserve. While they
are valuable, and a source Of consid
erable information to the individual
conducting them, and to others with
similar types OF soil, yet it does not
follow that a variety grown in one
character Of soil and succeeding best
will succeed best in other characters
Of soil. 1t Is frequently the case that
even on one farm from two to five
different types Of soil may be found.
The majority Of the varieties In
this list have been improved through
the past few years by selection, AID
the majority of them are susceptible
of much higher development. When
each farmer who Is making a busi-
ness Of growing cotton realizes that
the best cotton that he cnn grow on
his farm Is one improved by him on
his soil, We will be enabled to Sc
cure 100000 Daies u year from
half the number Of acres now culti-
waited.
