NELSON CASE OUT OF COURT
Continued from First Page.


mination of this case, it is best for
us. as citizens, to carefully refrain from
forming any opinion of the merits of
this prosecution.
Defendant Nelson stands charged of
this offense upon the unsupported word
OF VIM. Marble. 1t is certain that he
{ Marble) is not above reproach Mel.
sons attorney, Mr.. Hayes, assures us
that he has complete defense upon the
merits of the case That he will be able
TO prove by reputable witnesses that
every material statement Of Marble is a
falsehood; that Marbles statement that
Nelson procured him to commit this
crime was not true that conversations
testified TO by Marble in the examination,
were not only not true, but that there
was never any opportunity for such con.
versations, in short, that Marbles state.
ments were a complete falsehood and
can be proven to be such.
Nelson is a man that stands second to
none in this community. Marbles own
statement shows himself to be a moral
degenerate. The record shows that al.
though the warrant was issued for
Nelson and Marble, that only Nelson
was arrested, that Marble has not been
arrested for this offense, although pub.
licly admitting it. 1t appears from the
statements OF reliable witnesses, that he
has not been confined in Jail for any of
his crimes, which he admits he com.
mitted. Ii would look to disinterested
persons that he is receiving immunity
from punishment for some reason, and
when one who processes to be an accom-.
plice, either receives or lie promised any
favor for making statement and testi-
flying against an acoomplice, his state.
ments are TO DO taken with caution.

WHEN Magnate Baer, in reply to let.
ter, said that the interests represented
by him we're his divine favor, he was at
least giving his Creator credit for his
possessions. No so, however, with
Rockefeller. when he sent kilograms to
senators at Washington, over his own
signature, taying that he was opposed
20 any anti trust legislation and that it
must be stopped. Baer was fair at least
in giving proper credit. Rockefeller
is under obligations 10 no one-he is a
little brass god in himself and as such
he is naturally right lin his own mind
In the superstition that all men should
bow down to him at his beck and call.
Some day this little brass god will be
knocked of its pedestal and then we
will wonder why the accident had not
occurred years ago.
