1t would be amusing IL it were not
humiliating TO read the declarations of
the weaverite journals that Finley An
derson was really burden TO the coun-
sci for the prosecution who felt that he
had been destroyed on cross-examina-
ton. Yet these "honorable" attorneys
argued to the Jury that his testimony
was important and corroborative; and
not one intimated to the Jury that he
was perjured. But these journals miss
the point involved and demonstrated
by this confession. 1t is not that his
testimony was material; that he showed
himself to be false or that he was i'm
portant. 1t Is not indeed concerning
Anderson at all. The gist of this reve-
lation Is that the prosecution deliber-
ately fabricated testimony; deliber-
ately concocted evidence; paid for its
fabrication; intentionally put such a
witness on the stand; and used his
evidence as an excuse to convict Fin
ley Anderson may be and probably is
all charged-that is comparatively i'm
material. What is important is: that
he swears that Colonel Campbell and
Arthur Goebel sent for him to come to
Cincinnati; suggested what he must
know-got him first to know 1t and then
to swear to It; paid him considerable
sums of money and after he had testi-
fed to their story fixed by them for him,
paid him other sums of money and
recommended him to others for employ
ment
1t is not Finley Anderson who is on
trial; Colonel Campbell and Mr.. Ar
thur Goebel are put on trial by this
affidavit; and not only them but the
District Attorney and all who partici-
pated in that trial; these attorneys
either knew of this whole preparation
or they did not. Anderson, Golden,
Noaks, Culton, Stubblefeld, Weaver
and perhaps others are of no import
ance in and of themselves-they are i'm
portant as trained, coached, prepared
and paid witnesses, on whose testi-
mony verdicts have been apparently
based; testimony used as excuse for
verdicts; and important because of

the rewards of 5000 blood money for
each conviction.
The affidavit of Finley Anderson fur
nishes most excellent psychological
study; it gives perhaps unconsciously
a graphic history of how perjury is
gradually woven out of suggestion,
training and subtle leading; how by
adroit questions, skillful refreshing of
memory; subtle Interruptions in nara
ton the tale is gradually reduced to the
exact form desired.
The expert hand of master is re-
vealed in this narration. We commend
this confession to the very distinguished
and most influential blood-money COM
mission as the fair result of offering
rewards for convictions; this illustrates
how such rewards operate.
This confession also sheds much light
on the mode in which the case for the
prosecution has been prepared.
At the approaching election the voters
cannot punish those who were OFF,

Will Have to Buy.

Ranchmen of the west are beginning
to realize that the time is approaching
when the free range cannot be depended
upon. The march of empire westward
is gradually absorbing the good farming
land, and the big cattlemen are finding
themselves more closely encompasscd
each year. To guard against the pos
sibility of a freeze-out, the rich cattle
companies and individual owners are
buying up the big pastures, which they
can fence or control to their own liking.
The expansion in cattle raising is going
on gradually but surely from Montana
to Texas, and the demand for good graz
ing land is getting greater every year.

fight for a place at the watering trough.

turing fallacy is the man who gives it
practical effect. The first should not

ment and the service they meet. Special
mention is made by them of the elegance
in furnishings and conveniences for every
possible need. A great many of our visi-
tors from across the water do not realize
that the people in the interior of the.
United States are educated and accus-
toned to the very best the land affords
and when travelling over the country on
an Imperial" train like the "North-
Western Limited" their eyes open in
surprise at the superb e%quipages furn-
ished. Their surprise is not to be won
dered at after an inspection of the Linz
tied running between the Twin Cities
and Chicago over the North Western
Line. NO train on the globe, either here
or in foreign lands, is fitted with finer in
terror furnishings. Especially is this to
be noticed in the dining cars and COM
partment sleepers, which are beauties
unsurpassed by any trunk line in the
country. Nothing is too good for this
