This was the condition in Santa Rosa
proper and in all the plotted additions
except one. The owner of this one
addition would not cooperate with
the respectable element in its effort
to eradicate the evils that then men,
aced Santa Rosa. This owner evil
IDENTIFY thought it would be very profit
able to sell his property to the class
of persons and for the uses restricted
by the decent owners of all the rest
of the Santa Rosa property. SO this
he did. No woman was so fallen, no
man SO mean and low, but that she
or he could purchase for cash or on
installment a lot to engage in the re-
stricted business. Thus sby the wish
and the will OF this owner. saloons.
dance halls and bawdy houses sprang
into existence, in spite OF the bitter
protests of the better element Not
lot sold in this addition that had
a legitimate value of $500 yet sone
sold for $4,000. The owner was en-,
the ground frequently and none knew
better than he what it was that gave
his property its selling value. So It
was that leperous spot was placed
on fair Santa Rosa, which remained
for years. And mark you, this was
done with premeditation and afore-
thought by the owner Of the property.
You ask who was this vile being?
Surely it was some avaricious, human
hyena, hungry to fatten on the offal
of the white slave, trade. No gentle
reader it was not. 1t was only the
honorable w. G. Mcdonald, the same
gentle, high-minded moral champion
of the reformers (?) whose name now
graces the head of their ticket. His
Santa Rosa investment was so profit
able that the same gentleman did q
similar thing in CarTizozo, where con
ditions were practically the same as
they were in Santa Rosa. In Carrf-
zozo, however, he not only sold the
property for the purposes, named, but
appeared before the board Of county
commissioners of that county as an
advocate of one of the keepers of the
class of business named above and
fought his battles against the better
element Of that place to perpetuafe
the evils against the wishes Of the
people. Dear reader draw your own
conclusions

In 1901 the now beautiful town Of
Santa Rosa was founded on the banks
OF the turbulent Pecos at APPOINT where
the Rock Island railroad crosses this
river. The town was plotted, laid out
and lots put on sale. The promoters,
with view Of making Santa Rosa 4
clean, respectable, temperance town;
placed in each deed, what was known
as a forfeiture liquor clause. This
clause was such, that should the pur-
chaser deal in intoxicating liquor in
any way, the lot would be forfeited
and revent to the townsite pro-
moters. One saloon only was to be
allowed, and this conducted under
rules which would insure the place
being quiet orderly and respectable.
At the time the new town was laid
out (near the close Of the construc-
tion days of the railroad) there were
In Santa Rosa II saloons, II dance
halls and II of the usual attendant
evils. BY strict enforcement of its
rules ii was not long before the Town
site company had the liquor business
in control. the saloons reduced in num-
ber, to one, and this one as quiet and
respectable as a saloon could be, with
no dance halls or other nuisances.

Sacramento, Oct. President
Taft's first important speech in Cali
fornia was delivered here today from

Broadly speaking, President Taft said
the proposed treaties with these coun-

ted States who would settle their
existing debt on just basis and who
would point the road to peace and
prosperity to the two republics, rich
in natural resources but torn by strife

Judge Bordwell then admonished
other veniremen in the room not to
read papers or converse about the
case among themselves. Those in
the jury box as well as the venire-
men then were asked by the court
to leave the chamber until 2 O'Clock,
while argument was being conducted
as to what extent the court could in
terrogate veniremen.
"This is the first juror" began Dis
trict Attorney Fredericks, "and ]
doubt whether we will ever get a
jury that has not formed some opin-

He then cited California cases in
which challenges were not allowed
where Jurors had declared they had
formed an opinion.
A battle of precedent cases between
the attorneys ensued, Judge Bordweil
declaring he would welcome extensive
argument on the subject.
Nelson has prejudice, frs

then he has a fixed opinion which

Mr.. Darrow, citing a case where a
