A REMARKABLE CASE.

Perhaps one of the most remark
cases IN the annals of the law is tina
OF "Diamondfied Jack" the alleged
Cassia County murderer. This case
has been dragging on for, we believe,
fully three years now. Durino
nearly all of this time the prisoner
has been under sentence of death and
several times actual preparations
were made for execution, but each
time his attorney, MIR. James Haw-
ley, one of the ablest legal minds in
the state, who is thoroughly con
vlnced of the innocence of his client
managed to stave off the fatal
hour Courts, almost of the HIGHEST
resort, have considered the case in
some form and still the prisoner lies
unexecuted, but under sentence Of
death. Atfrst it appeared certain that
'ach hao murdered two sheep herd
ers, ana sentiment ran high against
him. Later it developed that it was
easily possible that Jack did not
commit the crime, his conviction he.

only. Still later two men of at least
average responsibility came forward
IN court and confessed and swore
that one of them had killed the two
dead men in defence of the life of
the other. These men who confessed
were known to have been in the

A TRIAL OF METTLE.

Never was Drawer struggle thar
the West is making for development
under adverse circumstances thai
would crush ambition in the hearts
of any but valiant and superior
class of men. Following upon des-
tructive results of the gold standard
conspiracy, we must be confronted
with the era of great commercial and
manufacturing combinations that are
almost bar to new manufacturing
enterprises. Having factories at the
East, where they can oversee
affairs and at the same time enjoy
the conveniences of highly develop
ed and heavily populated centers,
they are not going to move here
they are not likely to establish branch
es as long as they can control us any
way, and it is certain that individual
capital dare not 90 into small manu-
featuring enterprises here in Compel
ition with the big com binatlons East,
who have the railways a close ally to
assist in removing the worms from
their path. AS if that were not
enough, we have the railway interests
themselves as an adverse factor in
the manufacturing line. Under
present conditions the raw material
of the West passes over the RAILWAYS
to Eastern factories and the finished
product is hauled back to the
people of the Pacific Coast who
pay transportation both WAYS.
The building of factories here would
destroy that much traffic for the roads.
and if the trusts were to desire to
establish plants in the West it would
hurt the corns of the brother com
blnatioDs of transportation, and there
would be war on. But these big
brothers have no desire to iniure
each other as long as people are
thick enough to furnish game for
all of them.
True the railways are anxious TO
fill the West with homeseekers-
only as producers of raw material
thus increasing traffic East and West
Apparently the only hope is that the
stream from the East will eventually
bill Western valleys with swarm of
voters who in time will realize the
situation and carry the dav for the
restoration of silver and other leois-
atlon that will help break the COM
under which the country is
safely locked snug and tight. But

lions entirely disconnected with the

$3.50, 600, 900 being paid to foreign
ship owners, it forgets entirely the
foreign capital invested in our rail
ways. How much of railway earn

years? The Tribune cites that
dozen shipping lines are competing
for the New York trade. Ocean
consolidation has begun in dead

weeks, and must wait, for success,
until the struggles on land are set

attained form until the country now
knows that our entire transcontinen-
tai traffic is now controlled bv four
combinations. Is the Tribune sure
that such strength is not gathering
itself for the extension of its sway
over the seas as well, and can it say
there will be dozen lines competing
for New York trade year from
now? On the question of the in

FRILLs OF FASHION.

The revived Louis KY fashion of evening dress introduces brocaded moires for the pointed bodice ana open fronted skirt, with jeweled strappings, Valois collar. and petticoat of plain satin or velvet.
 There is scarcely a fur which is not being smiled upon by fashion this sea son, but novel combinations may be recognized in a coat of sealslSin, which bears vest and revers of miniver. and a long ulster of ermine, with q deer fiounce of ermine, and d high collar and cuffs of sable.
 silk gimps and passementeries en ap- plique. copying very closely the beauti- ful designs of applique laces. are the most novel and effective of the ready to-use trimmings of the season. Some of these Sarnitures are of black silk alone, others are intermixed with threads of gold or bits of cut velvet, chiffon. Or chenille. and still other motifs have all the rich and beautifus effect of the most elaborate handwork in silk in various artistic shades.
 We are once again to patronze fur hats. these being mostly made Of sable and trimmed with scarves of lace. Lace of the coarser kinds is much used for millinery in Paris. and a sable hat of last years date may be easily reno vated by a gathered brim or ecru chif- ion, covered with q scarf of lace.

The Foster house in West Brookfeld. Mass, which has just been burned. is supposed to have been built in 1735 by General Joseph Dwight a conspicuous figure in the Louisburs expedition of 1745. He commanded the Ninth Mas sachusetts regiment, was graduated from Harvard college in 1744, and was q delegate to the provincial congress in 1774-75. He was chosen a councillor in 177f and was disapproved by General Gage, only to be reappointed in 1115. He was a merchant in Springfield. The house was after his death occupied by Judge Jeddiah Foster. When General Washington inquired what Massachu- sets man he could especially rely upon in the struggle for independence he was referred to Judge Foster. It is known that Washington went to West Brookfield once to see the judge on some important matter of the state.
