Mr. Sinner and MIR Fortgang
both, will say to each of you. if
l should actually do what | ought
to do in this case, in order to
thoroughly vindicate the law and
make hn example for Others. one
which would have a salutary effect
IN dsterring others from commit
ting this and like offpnses the Court
would fine YOU a sufficient amount
to take from you and this firm ey.
erNrent of your i'll gotten gains
and then in addition to that fine.
add a long term of imprisonment
and in this way all who are dis.
posed to offend against the law and
to indulge in grossly illegal prac-
tees to enrich themselves at the
expense of others would be taught
a lesson, the existence OF the law
and that punishment is sure to fol-
low.
This is a serious %offense. In many
OF its aspects it is worse than lar
ceny: that is getting money as you
did, because il was obtaining
the money of others by fraud and
deceit, to enrich yourselves. When
a criminal goes out with a gun and
says to q man, Hold up your
hands stand and deliver" there is
an element of manlinbss and brav-
cry about it which is entitled to
more respect than getting money
in the ways resorted to by you ia
this case. | trust you feel the
sting of this: you ought to; and
your %Offense and punishment will
90 out TO the community. and it
will become known and will con-
slider the publicity as a part of
your punishment and as something
th7t will operate to deter others.
And now | want to say to you
that in foregoing the addition of
Imprisonment and imposing so light
4 fine in view of the amount you
have made by your duings and that
after al the ends If justice will pro-
badly be served and the dignity Of
the law upheld but ! want to say
to you further and to each Of you
that so for as is within my power
| will see and know that the Unit
ed States Attorney and his able as
sIstants will see and that the L S
attorneys wherever they are and
wherever an olTenSe might be in
dictahlr. will see TO it and its a
warning and not n threat, that is
what it is-that if you should Of
fend against the law again in these
RESPECTS, you need not expect to es-
cape with a fine, for surely the
penalty will be not only q heavy
fine, but a long term of imprison-
ment, justly earned by a rcrition
OF such an oifcnsc as this.

APPROVES CALIFORNIA BILL

Washington, September S-Tte
House having passed the Hetch
Hetehy bill it needs now only the
concurrence of the Senate to give
to San Francisco the water supply
for which she has been working for
so many years.
The attitude of the p~rogressiyes
of Congress who supported the
measure was best set forth hy Re-
preventative Warren Worth Bailey,
of PENNSYLVANIA. IN the following
speech during the debate:
In this long debate | have not
heard n argument advanced
which appealed to me as conclusive
against the claim of the people of
San Francisco to a water supply
hat is almost obviously essential
to her future growth and welfare.
! it were proposed in this bill TO
destroy the scenic grandeur of the
Hetch Hotchy or he wonders Of
the Yosemite, we might well pause
before granting to tie people Of
San Francisco the concession they
desire. Bnt it is not a mission of.
destruction which they plan, it is
one rather Of adding to the natur-
al charms Of this wonderland: and
it would take long to persuade me
that the lake which il is proposed
to create would detract anything
from the glory and the spIendor
of the scene which would surround
it.
No one can out do nc in devotion
to the principal Of conservation.
But if the sacrifices even Of Mia
CARA Falls to human good we're nee.
essary, | should not hesitate. The
highest conservation is that Of hu-
nan life. Man is more than any
marvel of mountain or lake or for
est or rocky gorge. His fortune
and destiny demand the first con-
sideratiou. His health and develop
mcnt and progress are paramount
to every other factor which by any
possibility may be involved. Aud
here in this matt.r we have the
lives and fortunes and future pros
poets of a playground Of the gods.
Shall We ave the people or shall
we keep inviolate a spat hat few
eau ever hope to see. Must we
think first of tie sticks and stones
and loss of the planners and Up
builders and the mouldors of in
dustry?
If it were proposed to turn this
grant over to a private monopoly,
should fight II with all my might.
But the grant is to the people Of
San Francisco and the towns and
cities round about. II is a grant
not for exploitation, not for the
cnriching of a favored few, not to
be employed in extortion and op-
preston; it is a grant rather which
will emsncipate a great and grow
ing community from calling bend
age 10 a merciless taskmaster
whose finger may he seen in the
opposition to this measure.
San Francisco longs for freedom
and she deserves to be free. But
if we deny her this boon she must
remain in thralldom. She must
continue to suffer as she pays tri-
butte tC a remorsele5s priyate
monopoly. And she must beat vain
~ against her bars unless NC break
them down by opening the noun
tain streams which sing alar of
freedom and of growth and Of
health and of all which pure water
means to man"
