time is favorable for capitalists to come
forward and start the fibre industry
here, and that further Investigations
should be made to encourage them. He
is confident that company with sutli'
cient capital to handle the crop could
get farmer. to produce it for them to

OF course the public asks no odds

C lived today that they were alive crowds
ofspeople gathered about the cavern in

who have toiIed night and day ever
since they were ordered to the spot,
when the local autht rites announced
their inability to force an entrance into
the cavern. The entrance was blocked
by timbers, bonldors and food bars. 1t
was absolutely necessary to use dyna-
mite in order to clear away the obstruc-
tions which prevented the entrance of a
diver into tho cavern, The engineers
were compelled to work slowly and with
the utmost caution, as it was feared that
a 700 severe explosion might bury the
imprisoned people beneath tons Of rock.
When the debris had been cleared away
and al was ready Diver Fisher made an
other attemp. aud this tin4 succeeded

had been subjected had almost driven

taken considerable supplies Of provls.

as they still had according to the diver,

had some candles burning. The i'm

that they bad passed through a period

had been able To hear the attempts TO
rescue them, but the work seemed to
progress so SLOW y THAI they had almost

that both for yield and quality Of seed
the cultivation is more profitable than

that if he had aimed to secure the most

But the yield of flax straw, which

Found Guilty.

WASHINGTON, May S.-Congressman
Pence of Colorado in the police court to-
day made the closing argument in be-
haf Of the commouwealers, He SAD no
one who Leard the evidence expected
conviction.
"A. r. Coxey came to ask for the en-
actment of laws" said Perce, (which he
believes and thousands of others believe
of inestimable advantage to the unem-
ployed.
"Coxey's plan might be foolish. He
had come to present it peacea0ly at the
head of an orderly body of American cit
liens and had as much tight to petition
congress as any body else. Representa-
tives of large interests coming here as
paid lobbyists, to corrupt congress met
a warm welcome, but these were men
who came farefcotei, tramping through
snow, led by man who had the cour-
age Of his convictions, to be invited to
the open doors Of jail built through
the taxation of ciJzens."
Pence commented upon the fact that
for the first time this term the district
attorney himself had come into the 10
lice courts to prosecute the case, thus
showing that the administration was be-
hind the prosecution.
"Tomorrow Coxey will be free man
by YOUR verdict" said Pence. He will
appear before the labor committees of
congress under the resolution of Mr..
Bell, Of Colorado, to devise means for
giving employment to the unemployed,
and will be listened to more attenlively
than any paid lobbyist | can assure
you whatever shall be written of the
Coxey movement, let it not be said that
twelve citizens of Washington branded
this honest, weIl-meaning man as a
criminal"
District Attorney Bierney discussed
the case camly. He spoke of the sena-
tor from Nebraska looking far over the
heads of the jury to talk to his constitu-
ency on the distant praine, and the
member from Kansas was talking to the
cornfelds of bis state, and The gentleman
from Colorado was talking to an open
mouthed constituency,
The jury in the Coxey case returned
verdict finding Coxey, Brown and
Jones guilty Of carving banners in the
capitol grounds, and on the charge of
walking on the grass. Coxey and Brown
we're found guilty, and Jones not guilty.
A motion was entered for new trial.

institution of learning who cannot write

present when it was written, and passed
judgment thereon. THE article said that
someone was drunk, but leaves it de
batable question as to who was the per
son referred to, althougb tho language
OF the article would indicate that it was

The article in last weeks Traitor at.

uncalled for, but it showed the feelings
of the proprietors Of the gangs hybrid

stood for the welfare Of the town, and
who was a thorn in the flesh Of the con
epirators and traitors against Pullman
L. II. Letterman had no more to do with
the article that caused the attack than
did Adam, and never saw 1t tin be read
it in print. These parties will ooa
learn that their boosted ','endorsement7
by the people of Pullman was pure
moonshine, and that neither spite, mal-
ice or envy has any part in the fgh.
against them as traitors. When a man
commits a crime, be is tried, convicted
and punished, not from spite or malice,
but as a protection TO the community.

THE Pullman Tribune has changed
from being Pullman institution 3, an
enemy Of the town. No man in Pull
man, outside Of the four WHO are Lilley's
tools, has any doubt about this. III ose
who advocate Lilley's reinstatement in
the college are enemies to the state, to
the agricultural college, and TO Pullman,
and the Tribune exists now for that pur-
pose only. Everyone who contributes
to its support aids an enemy to tueir
own interests. The people OF Pullman
can show their true feelings on this ques-
ton by refusing further support to the
Tribune till it becomes a paper devoted
to the interests OF Pullman. 1t is a one
man sheet, pelsoaal organ, and should
be supported by those whom it sup
ports To aid it is to aid the conspi a.
tors in their selfish schemes against the
interests of the common people.
