SOUTH
DAKOTA
Fine New Vessel Will Be
Launched With Great
POmp

San Francisco, Cal, July 20.-Ar
rangements have been completed at
the Union Iron Works for the launch
ing tomorrow of the cruiser South Da'
kota, which is to be one of the finest
and most formidable fighting mac
hines of the new navy. In order to
get the best advantage of the tides
the launching will not take place un.
I'll about half past 8 in the evening.
The South Dakota is a fine repre-.
sentative of the class of magnificent
armored cruisers Of which another OF
the same type is the Colorado, which
recently established a new speed re-
cord. These two ships, with the Mary
land. California, Pennsylvania and
West Virginia, all Of them of the same
class, dimensions and armament, have
been likened to ~battleships possess.
ing a protection of armor only a little
under the weight Of that designed for
the huge ships of the Georgia c,ass,
while they are greatly superior to all
battleships in point of speed.
The South Dakota will have an In
usually powerful battery, made up Of
a great number Of s and 6 inch guns.
She will have a total displacement of
1900 tons and will be exceeded in
size by only four vessels o build
ing, these being battleships of 1900
tons. The South Dakota will derive
prominence from two qualities
speed and concentration Of fire. Her
wonderful engines, driving twin screws
will develop a horse power Of $4,000
of propelling the ship at a
speed of 23 knots an hour-perhaps
even faster. This speed viii at once
take her outside the reach of pursuing
battleships, while her powerful bat.
.ery will make her a dangerous an
-agonist both in engagements with
gessels of her own class and those car
wing heavier ordinance.

the witness to answer the question,
and ne said that he was employed by
the month. Mr.. McNary then asked
witness II he was in the place on that
day. but witness refused to answer,
and Mr.. McNary excused him.
w. p. Drew was called and related
how he had stood on the sidewalk and
watched French and McCracken enter
the saloon by a small door north OF the
entrance. Saw bartender with regu.
lation white dress. The room was
well lighted, didn't look anything like
a bank" He did not go in, but looked
around through the door, and also
through the front glass. On cross-ex-
animation witness said that he came
to Oregon about FIVE years ago, came
here from Chicago, where he lived %
years; teacher at Willamette Univer-
sity. Attorney Kaiser and witness
had quite a tilt, creating considerable
merriment.
Attorneys for the defense stated
that they did not care to examine wit
nesses, but introduced a certified copy
of an act Of 1864 in which it is con
tended that the law of 1854, under
which the defendant was arrested, had
been repealed. Attorneys McNary, for

we're crowded with curious people.
The attorneys for the defense raised
n point Of nor than usual interest
when they questioned the standing Of
The present Sunday law, under which
the various saloon men were indicted.
The contention Of the defense is that
the state legislature repealed all the
old territorial laws and all state laws
enacted prior to 1852 by a direct stat.
ute In 1854, except certain laws spe-
cihcally named In the enactment. The
Sunday law does not appear In the list

There are occasional demonstrations

adverse. Much as this last circum-
stance was to be deploNHd, 1t must
nevertheless be a matter for congrat-
ulation that the misunderstandings
with which ancient boundary treaties,
made in ignorance of geographical
facts are so fertile, have in this case
been finally removed from the field
OF controversy. The crisis in the Far
East as touched upon briefly by the
