THE SENSATIONAL ALLIANCE

i Riverside and Orange counties

district. San Diego county will con-
stitute another district Imperial coun-
ty is a remnant left over in the dis
tricting of the state, and must be an
nexed to one of the senatorial dis
tricts.
During the last few days it has been
a matter of considerable discussion
with which district our alliance should
be made, with the result that there is
very decided general opinion thai this
county should be put in the Riverside
Orange district.
While it is q fact that the future of
this valley is destined to lead into
close commercial relationship with
San Diego county. it is believed this
county will fare better as one of three
counties having somewhat near the
same population than in a county
where it would be far Outclassed for
several years by the only other coun-
ty in the district.
Moreover, the political instincts of
the people of this valley are apparent
ly more in harmony with the people
of Riverside and Orange counties than
with those of San Diego county

-AwKEs AND THE M'NAMARAs

L There have been many great
crimes in the history of the world,
and some of these crimes have been
perpetrated by cT2zed bigots in the
supposed interest of a good cause
When Guy Fawkes and his fellow
conspirators, early in the seventeenth
century, undertook to destroy the
English parliament, it was their crazy
notion to promote the welfare of the
Catholic church.
Almost a parallel case is that of
The McNamaras, now admittedly guilty
Of tne destruction of the Los Angeles
Times building and many of its in
mates. in behalf of trade unionism.
As in the case of Fawkes, there had
long been contention and bigotry on
both sides-in the Fawkes case con-
tenti0n over religion, in the Times
case oyer trade unionism.
Probably no human act has had
more influence in producing religious
tolerance among both Protestants and
Catholics than revulsion from the in
tolerance of the Gunpowder Plot.
We doubtless will hear it said that
the Mcnamara case will weaken trade
unionism, but the chances are that it
will have no such effect More prob
able is it that it will serve as an OBJ

SEND THE NEWS TO DIoGENEs
Man Pays Twenty-Five Year Old
Grocery Bill With Interest.

Denver, Color. r. W Hayes de-
clares he has found the honest man
for home Diogenes searched in vain.
Twenty-Five years ago, when Hayes
had grocery in Moberly, Mo, Clay
ton Lemon ran up bill of $40 at the

Hayes later moved to Shawnee,
Okla, where he met man who af-
terward travelled to Old Mexico and
became acquainted with Lemon. Hayes
never told his friend that Lemon was
indebted to him for groceries bought
a quarter of century before.
One day. in talking about the days
of their youth, this friend and Lem
on discovered that they had a COM
mon friend in Hayes. Lemon at once
wrote to Hayes, asking if he could
look up the old account and compute
the interest on it.
Hayes was SURPRISED few days ago
when he received S95.95 in Mexican
money, which included the original
amount of the debt and 6 per cent
interest.
Hayes related the incident to
Moberly friend here and found Lem
on had done the same thing with his
other creditors in the Missouri town.
Lemon has amassed a fortune in
railroading in Mexico.

HAS PARDON FOR OLD CRIME.
Veterans Simple Confession Causes
Stir in Court

sur III NOuTt.
Los Angeles. GAIA dramatic scene
of a man fighting for his reputation
ensued in Judge Willis court when
John w. Meek, a civil war veteran
was asked if he had ever been con-
victed of a felony. He admitted that
he had, but exhibited the pardon of
the governor of Arkansas, issued a
short time after he was sent to pris-
on.
The story which he told harked
back to the days OF the rebellion and
of hot blood aroused by the abuse of
Meek's parents on account of his
choice of sides in the conflict.
The scene in court was staged in
the trial of Chris Conley on a charge
of having stolen 81 from the person
of Meek. When it came to his cross
examination the embarrassing ques-
tion was put. Meek answered it
bravely in the affirmative. He was
then permitted to offer an explana-
ton.
He said that he fought in the con-
federate army. When he returned
to his little home town in Arkansas
he learned that several bullies had
made life miserable for his aged faith
er. His fighting blood was aroused
and he shot and killed one of the tor
menters
He was tried on a charge of muir
der and a jury found that he was
warranted in taking life.
"I left the state" he said. -Four
teen years later a new prosecutor
went into office. To make reputa-
ton he had me brought back. I was
tried and found guilty of manslaugh-
ter. They sentenced me to five years

York stopped at Great harrington to
look at the library of the town, to
which, fourteen years ago, while
summer resident there, he presented
a copy Of the Bible.
At that time he wanted copy for
refercnce in preparing a speech he
was to make and was shocked to find
that there was no copy Of the Bible in
the generous collection of bound vol
umes of which the town had always
been proud. He gave copy to the
town library, and on the fly leaf Of
the book he wrote:
Il have found a great many IL
