Hatfield Will Get $4,000 if Pre-
cipitatiOn for Season Is
Twelve Inches

STOCKTON. Nov. 21.-West side
farmers in san Joaquin county have
engaged Hatfield, the rain maker, for
the coming season. The contract en-
tered into by the farmers and the rain
wizard is that he must cause to fall
between November !, 1903, and April
Ia 1909, at least u inches Of rain.
Last year Hatfield made a similar
contract with the farmers, but lacked
less than half an inch Of making good.
In 1906 Hatfield won $4,000 for u
inches with quite a margin to spare.
This year the rain making apparatus

before, and II is expected that this viii
be- conducive to better results.
The rain making machine is now To-
Gated about is miles west of Newman,

CHAIRMAN RAKfR
IS UNRFSPONSIVE
local Democratic Leader Fails
TO Attend the Post MOrtem
Gathering
Committee Audits Bills of CAM
paign and Signs at Useless
Expenditure

With its chairman still not heard
from the democratic state executive
committee held a meeting yesterday to
wind UP the business of the campaign
and to discuss the earthquake" OF No
vember 8.
1t was. confidently expected that
Judge John Z. Raker of Alturas, the
chairman would be on hand for this
meeting. But Raker did not show.
Whether he considers the trip of two
DAYS too much trouble for a post NOR
TEN political gathering or whether he
is unWi = 10 risk the face to face
crlticism ol the men who are hot
about his absence during the campaign,
was not decided yesterday. Both opin-
ions were held by men who appeared at
the meeting, but in the absence OF any
message from Raker Judgment was
suspended
Raker failed to put in an appearance
during the campaign, being too busy
holding his position on the superior
bench Of Modoc county against his re-
publican opponent to waste any time
in this city. Considerable Indignation
was expressed at his absence The
Iroquois club called upon him to resign
the craftsmanship and Will Ashe OF
Glen Ellen wired TO Bryan about his
neglect Of duty.
Those members OF the executive COM
nittee who thought that Raker would
attend the meeting yesterday and ex-
plain his absence during the campaign
were disappointed. To the letter noti-
fying him Of the meeting Raker sent
no response. In fact, John F. Murray
the secretary, has not heard of him
since election day.
In the chairman's absence the COM
mittee audited the bills OF the cam
paign, breathing a sigh over so much
money gone for naught, and resolved
10 stick by the party.
zAmong those present were Theodore
A. Bell, Senator J. B. Sanford, Senator
A. Caminetti, Walter Macarthur Cur

Gossip Of Rai!waymen

They quote an instance of rapid de-
livery that, it is claimed, can not be
equaled in the country. Steel rails
were rolled in Chicago on October 10,
shipped to northern California by the
above mentioned lines, and on No
vember Is six miles of track of the
McCloud River railroad had been laid
with this shipment. The McCloud
River railroad is putting in heavy rails
over its system.
There is certainly humorist among
the trainers of the tariff, for under the
head of household goods" the shipper
is notified that it does not include
automobiles and hearses."
Harry McMurdo MacGregor. on see
ing the paragraph, declared that it
was not written by railroadman.
That is all rot, said he. and what
may term a superfuity. Who ever
heard Of a railroadman carrying an
automobile or hearse about the coun-
try among his household goods. What
other people move about the country
with their belongings" he asked in
establishment.
Il thought it was only railroadman
who moved his household goods from
one place to another. Why CHASING
hearses and automobiles is almost as
bad as the case of a railroadman with
the name of Flannery, who carted his
cook, born in Poland, all over the coun-
try, and said she was his sister, a
dependent relative, in order to comply
with the classification of the interstate
commerce commission
E. H. Hartman is credited with be-
ing the purchaser of 5000 acres of oil
land in Mexico lying below Tampico
and adjoining Tuxpan. He is said to
have paid $50 gold per acre. There
has been considerable activity lately
in the Mexican oil fields, and IT is
asserted that the Hartman purchases
are for the purpose of providing oil
for his motive power in that republic
A change in the minimum charge for
small packages under eastbound trans
continental tariff will become effective

]. H. Pearman, California tourist
agent for the Union Pacific and the

Yosemite valley with the intention of
looking into conditions with the view
of inducing winter travel there. 1t
is thought that as there are many hun
dreds of tourists in California during
the winter accustomed to the rigors
of an eastern climate, they would not
regard it as a hardship to see the
Yosemite during the winter, and he
will try to work up travel there.

CowardIy Corrupt Press

The idea expressed in the foregoin
press excerpt is indorsed by the Wood
land Daily Democrat:
Another indication that out OF
evil may come good Is found in the
cringing and cowardly attitude or
maliciously corrupt press now
trying to escape the wrath and in
dlgnatton of an outraged and de-
termined public sentiment. A week
ago they were insolently proclaim
ing that Mr. Heney never gave
anybody square deal; that he is
viciously and maliciously unfair;
that his hands were bloodstained"
and many other things too dis
graceful and shameful to enumer-
ate: They were libeling him in
Vicious and brutal cartoons and
lampooning him in vile and ven
omous doggerel. Now they are de-
Ploring the fact that he was shot
oown while in the performance OF
his duty" and they are denouncing
Ruef and other rich criminals with
all the virility of which they are
capable. They can not deceive
anybody. Their spasms of indig-
nation are prompted by fear that
the people may fix the responsible
1ty for attempted assassination

Stained With Heney's Blood

An editorial in the Santa Cruz New
says:
Crocodile tears are flowing now
by the quart over Heney's case,
and the very men who were the
real accessories and abetters in
Haas crime are crowdinR past each
other to protest their devotion to
Heney and the cause of the graft
prosecution But these men and
these papers can not be trusted.
They never brought one word of
honest criticism against the meth
DDS of the graft prosecution. Their
whole course has been studied
effort to break the force of that
prosecution and defeat its object.
Certain of the San Francisco news
papers, up to the last moment, In
their reports of the Ruef trial used
every trick and device known TO
the clever writer to turn the whole
proceeding into a screaming farce.

as a sort of maligned hero, waiting
impatiently for it all to end We
caution the public to put no faith
in this forced change of heart. Be
trayers stained with Heney's blood
should not be suffered to smooth
his pillow and laurel wreath his
brow. while they call upon the peo-
pie to attest the nobility of his
deeds Some of these men who are
protesting their affection for him
now would rejoice If he were per-

Dirty Political Allies

Outside of California the Significance
of the attempt to kill Heney is clearly
understood. The Rocky Mountair
News of Denver tells of his fgh
against the allied forces of big bust
ness and dirty politics. and continues
thus:
SO long as Heney confined his
efforts to the prosecution of Mayor
Schmitz and the members of the
San Francisco city council-most
of whom had never earned more
than 500 a month in their lives
he was hailed as deliverer by
the best people of the city. But
when, armed with the evidence he
had wrung from the boodling coun-
cilmen, he went after Ruef and
Glass and Calhoun, he was branded
an anarchist who was seriously in
terfering with business. and with
his friend, Rudolph Spreckels, he
was socially ostracized"

Haas a PLANT Tool

The Statesman of Boise, Idaho, re
fuses to believe that Morris Haas acte
of his own accord. Here is the wa
this paper reasons:
Morris Haas fired the shot that
sent bullet crashing through the
head of Francis ]. Heney; but be-
hind the scenes were men who df-
rected his action. There is little
doubt of 1t; and sooner or later
the truth will come out. The cir
cumstances point to that conclu-
sion-the bitterness of the fight
against those who were bending
every effort to bring to justice
civic crooks. high and low, cor
ruptionists. bribe givers and bribe
taken the lack of initial impulse
exhibited by the man who claimed
his victim had wronged him; the
strong probability that his mind
had been iniamed: not by uninfiu
enced contemplation of disgrace
through exposure by the prose-
cutor, but by subtle suggestion, IL
not by absolute negotiation, on the
part of men who, too cowardly to
strike, found In Haas a plant tool.
If, as he claimed, Haas had felt
Heney had done him a great per-
sonal injury. he would have acted
at once. Delay always tempers the
first spasm of anger. 1t was only
after others had poisoned his mind
and aronsed his passions through
recital of a fancied wrong. until to
him 1T became reality, that Haas
nerved himself to the terrible deed.
