THE REFUGE OF
INNOCENCE.

When political opponents openly
charged against Judge Jones. OF Ma
rietta. o.. that his denomination had
been secured by boodling. the Judge
himself promptly instructed the
grand jury to make rigid investi-
cation.
This action OF the Ohio Judge is
in striking contrast to that OF most
accused officials. IL Is vastly differ
ent from the attitude of accused cor
poration managers. The common
practice is to fight on investigation
as long as possible.
Investigation may be thing OF
terror to the guilty. but It is the SAT-
est refuge of Innocence.
II IL is the right of the community
that the accused shall be indicted
tried. and, II guilty. punished 1t is nc
less the right of the innocent indi-
vidual who stands suspected to be
confronted with his accusers in open
court and there put down the accu.
sations.
Trila upon criminal charge Is no
blow at man accused. 1t is his
chance to clear himself before tn,

LETTER FROM BOISE.
Improvements at Penitxntiary-
Steunenberg Memorial,

Steunenberg Memorial
A number OF improvements Ut very
great Importance have been decided
on by the state penitentiary commits \,
sloners, to be carried into effect DUR
ing the coming year. At recent
meetings Of the commissioners It was
decided to put In pumpluE plant.
to supply the penitentiary with watef
for domestic uses. A heating plant
will also be installed, although this
latter will probably not be put In titi.
til after the new cell wing has beea
completed and put into use.
The commissioners and Warietf
Whitney feel that the opportunity is
, ripe for the development Of model
farm In connection with the prison.
Although the prison reserve Is of
considerable size, the land capable OF
/ cultivation around the penttentiary
is limited. However the state owns
a large quantity OF very fine land on
the south side Of the Boise river, on
the bench which will be reclaimed by
! the government irrigation project.
The plan at present is to secure
through purchase or lease of a section
of this land and here raise the great
er portion OF all that is eaten in the
penitentiary. The land could be
cultivated by men from the prison.
This would greatly reduce the cost OF
maintenance OF the penitehtiary.
The proposition to fix a day for a
Steunenberg memorial service, IN all
parts of the state, which Governor
Gooding has decided on, is meeting
with general favor. The governor,
however, states that 1t IS difficult to
tell at present just what date will be
fixed on. 1t Is now thought that
these services will be delayed until
some time after the trial Of Harry
Orchard, who IS charged with the ex-
Governors murder. Governor Good.
ing feels that further agitation Of the
> matter by the holding OF such services
at the present time would be a yer,
bad thing. and that in spirit oI
fairness to the accused men the mind.
of the people should be left as cain
and unbiased as possible.
n 1t has been decided that when tn!
date is fixed, that the governor viii
at the same time appoint u genera
committee of arrangements for eac,
n county in the state. and that thi
committee will be urged, as far a
possible, to see that those nemoria
* services are held in every church an
school house in the state.

Judge Morgan will be candidate be-
fore the republican convention next

opposition in the person of Il. N.
Dunn, register of the Occur d'Alene

make a strong fight for supremacy
both in Shoshone and Kootenai coun-
ties. Judge Morgan has the backing
of b. +. O'Neil, the Wallace banker,
who is credited with being a power

Judge Morgan's term as district

judge is candidate for reelection,

of being in the Office at the present
