an Obnoxious D1iniuO LGtC.

Mr.. G. P. Richardson, of the
Moose creek mines, writes us from
Princeton, Illinois, that he has
received a letter from Attorney
General Parsons, of Idaho, in which
he, the encouragement, says that
as he understands the Wyman
mining law passed at the last ses-
sion of the late lamented legisla-
ture, "it is necessary Ito file a
SEPARATE AFFIDAVIT of perform
ance of assessment work for each
claim,'
The FREE PRESS everlastingly
condemned the Wyman mining
law both while it was pending and
after its passage, as the greatest
piece of bungling legislation ever
enacted, and we hasten to repeat
now and to emphasize all the
mean things we have said about
it. AS we said at the time, the
act should have been entitled "An
Act to Promote Mining Legisla-
ton and to Harrass the Mining
Industry of the State of Idaho
with useless, idle and expensive
restrictions" Wyman probably
meant well, but he did not know
the first thing about mines or thu
mining industry; and the repre-
sentatives of the agricultural
counties, not knowing anything
about it either, resulted in thu
enactment of this stupid and sense
less so-called mining law. Ever.
: day it develops some new mon
; strosity to add expense to thos
: engaged in developing the min
d: eral resources of the state.

FRIEND PARKER.-The long con-
test over the trial of Mrs. God
dard was closed and submitted to
the jury today. 1t has been a
tedious trial and has cost Nez
Perce county good pile of money.
Hons. Jas. w. Reid and Tom
Griffith have fought every inch
of the ground in defense Of
their client. There was not
point lost that came within their
grasp. They are two of the best
criminal lawyers in the Northwest
and when they both enter into a
fight like this they are force
that no ordinary combination can
withstand. In this case they had
no walk over; our young Dist.
Attorney is distinguishing him.

is useless to dwell upon the bril-
liant plea of our famous orator
j. w. Reid; he made mastery
effort. He has put his whole
soul in the case and did all that
man could do for the accused.
Tom Griffith, Spokane's pride and
chief in criminal defenses, has
proved himself worthy of the title
He is a vigilant guard and logical
reasoner, and in interrogating
witnesses and examining persons
he has no superior. His plea was
fine, reviewing the evidence

thread in favor of his client; nc
