Payments on Washington Park.
The matter of making payments
on Washington park was discussed
and the fact was revealed that no
payment has ever been made on
this property. There is now $4,000

purpose of paying the principal on
bonds it cannot be applied TO this

DIGGS-CAMINETTI CASE
San Francisco, June 25.-John L.

ney, today made public what he said
was his last word" in connection
with Attorney General McReynolds'
order to postpone the Diggs-C amin-
ETH white slavery and Western Fuel

mo one in California will be de-
ceived for an instant by the lame and
pueriIe defense Of the attorney-gen-
eral to the President" said McNab.
"McReynolds says l should have
wired him to remind him had three
times warned him that postponement
would destroy these cases; that it
was boosted that a postponement
would be obtained by political infiu-
ence at Washington; that witnesses
were being suborned, and that one of
the defendants attorneys was jailed
for corrupting witnesses.
HE wanted all these cases post
poned so they might be throttled and~
his rich and influential friends could
be saved from trial.
Now, reused by the prick of pub
lie opinion, he expresses his sudden
determination to force an immediate
trial by aid of special counsel Why
this sudden paroxysm of virtuous
haste?
Zone of two things is true. Either
the attorney general withheld from
the president my repeated messages
of warning that corruption and in
fuence were destroying the cases
and postponement was fatal, or Off
cial Washington is neither sensitive
nor responsive to the charge of cor
rIIDtiou in its public servants.

vidual prizes to be awarded to the state
winners. Besides, there will be over
half hundred specials.

lie school regeneration movement are
such forces as: the state, the grange,
the bankers association, the farmers
union, state college, federal govern
ment, state commissioner of agricul-
ture, commercial clubs, prominent
citizens, county superintendent, teach
ers, and the press.

Fifty thousand for Cats

Fifty thousand dollars will be spent
by Mrs. Clifford D. Harmon, OF Green
wich, Conn, to erect home for cats.
The animals will be supplied with beds
and meals and their home will be cared
for by servants, says news item.
This is but one Of the silly pranks OF
wealthy people who disregard the
needs OF humanity. There are I'M
doubtedly as many helpless human be-
ings in Greenwich as there are in ev-
cry city who might receive great COM
fort from this vast amount OF money
spent for home for felines. Homes
for cats and elaborate monkey dinners
are diversions Of the idle rich, from
money cleaned from the brain and
Drawn of their fellow human beings.
The right of anyone to spend their
wealth as they see fit is not to be ques-
toned, but system that will permit
the accumulation Of fortunes to be
discussed without benefit to humanity,
while the needs of the proletariate are
becoming more distressing every year,
is wrong. 1t forces problem onto
the people that must be faced in the
future, if it is not now confronting US
to large extent. -Ex.

that the advance has its origin and seat
in New York and is Of professional
character, with an attempt to run in
shorts as its sole basis. 1t may sound
paradOXiCal, but it is nevertheless true
that, owing to the fact that the general
situation is bearish and crop prospects
so good. the market advanced because
of the short interest accumulated and
