SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 16.-Tht
Durrant trial entered upon it's nintl
week this morning. A slight change
in the program for to-day was made
necessary by a death in the family o.
Mrs. George P. Dorgan, whose ex-
animation was not finished when
court adjourned last Thursday
Durrant's defenders will be unable
to persuade Mrs. Elizabeth Crossett
to modify her testimony regarding
her ride in a Valencia street car on
the afternoon of April 8. The old
lady is as sure of the day as she is OF
the fact that she rode on the same
car with Durrant and tried to attract
his attention from the girl who was
with him. The testimony OF Mrs.
Crossett will be the key to the pros
ecution's arch. BY it the evidence
Of those who saw Durrant before he
entered the church and OF him who
saw him after, will be supported.
Through it an absolutely unbroken
chain has been made. The prose,
cutting attorneys have now case
that they did not dare hope for when
District Attorney Barnes made his
opening statement.
The identity of the "Sweet Pea
Girl" the mysterious young woman
who has constantly attended the
Durrant trial and who has attracted
so much attention by her devotion
to the alleged murderer. She is
Mrs. Grace Bowers. the wife of an
insurance clerk. Last Wednesday
she left her husband ~ q result OF
her infatustion for Durrant. Mr..
Bowers says that his wife never
knew Durrant, but that from the
beginning she has taken great in.
terest in the trial and believes Dur
rant innocent. 1t Is through that
her mind has become afieoed aud
that sue Is not responsible for her
actions.

sickness of hope deferred. Many
illusions were dispelled before it was
given to any Of them to return to
their homes.
1t is quite true that these mistakes
were made on both sides. The two
sections had lived 50 far apart that
they did not know each other in any
tolerable degree. They were destin
ed to get acquainted under circum-
stance that would leave no doubts
to be resolved in the future. If the
South had paraphrased the words ol
Laiy Macbeth
1.-THE raven himself is hoarse
That croaks the fatal entrance of Duncan
under my battlement"-
it would have expressed not only
what many Of her people felt, but
actually what took place in the early
years of the war. But the Southern
men also early realized that they had
underrated the magnitude of the
struggle before them.
1t is necessary TO recall these
events in order to heighten the con-
trast with this second coming. The
Grand Army again enters the gate
way of the South, but under far
different circumstances. There are
here no bloody hands TO welcome
foes to hospitable graves, as of yore.
On the contrary, we welcome them
as friends and brothers, compatriots
and Americans, whose laurels are the
common heritage, whose imperish
able renown makes luminous the
pages of our common history. Our
hearts and homes are open to them;
our citizens are anxious to do them
honor. They will not remain with
us so long as they did before, but
they will have a good deal more fun,
at least, if they do not, it shall not
be our fault.
Such spectacle as we shall hav.
in Louisville this week would, per
haps, be impossible in any othe,
country, In the United States We
are good fighters, but we are not
long haters. We fight out our diff
ferences, and dismiss them. We arc
too busy, and, let us hope, too SEN
Iible and too patriotic, to keep alive
the animosities of day that has
gone forever and ever by. The
'late unpleasantness" was no child's
play while it lasted, but it was
taught out to its logical result, and
all classes are prepared to accept it,
and to discard the passions which
it excited. We have built up the
waste places, have buried the past,
and turn our faces resolutely to thc
future, with confidence in the great
destiny which our united efforts will
create. When we look back to 1867
we can not but wonder at the mys>
terious way along which beneficen'
Providence has led great people
through the havoc of war and fratri.
cidal strife to peace, prosperity and
fraternity.

PARTY INSULTED.
The Dsmo.Pop News Accuses Him Of

Shameful Attack on . Leading
Citizen.

In the News Of Monday Postmaster
Strother made most shameful at.
tack on one Of Jefferson townships
leading citizens, Mr.. John Tischouser.
1t referred to a social gathering at
his home on Sunday as "a big drunk
and insinuated that it was in the in
terest Of some Republican candi-
date. Postmaster Strother was evil
IDENTIFY SO befuddled that be did rot
know what he was talking about
or else he did not know Mr..
Tischouser. Mr.. Tischouser is one
OF the leading Populists Of Dickinson
county. He is also whole-hearted,
generous man, given to hospitality.
He entertained party Of friends Sun
day and was big-hearted enough to
invite few Republicans. No Repub.
lican candidate, however, accepted
his invitation and II the News is cor
rect the participants were chiefly
Democrats and Populists, including
two Of tho immaculates whom the
News and Monitor are trying to
white-wash into responsibility,
Mr.. Tischouser is mad, red hot and
angry at the indignity and it would
not be surprising II Postmaster
Strother's attack on him should
prove the biggest boomerang Of the
campaign.
Mudslinging is mighty dangerous
occupation, as the News and Monitor
will find out,
VI the News last year the Monitor
said "The campaign made by that
paper was a colossal blunder from
to end and did more to de-
feat the ticket it was pretending to
support than any other factor in
the campaign"
History repeats itself.
