ORCHARD DESIRED
NO ATTORNEYS IN
MURDER CASE

Caldwell Idaho, March 1G.-Harry
Orchard, confessed slayer of ex-Gov-
ernor Steunenberg, was arraigned in
the country court here yesterday
on the indictment returned against
him by the grand jury and charging
him with the murder of Ex-Governor
Steunenberg.
The Indictment was read to Orchard
and he said he had no lawyer and
desires none The court, however,
gave him two local attorneys to advise
him. He said Harry Orchard was his
right name.
There was an awful pause after the
Indictment was read and the court
did not ask him if he was guilty or
not. Orchard would undoubtedly have
pleaded guilty if asked.

BEER AND BOOZE
Salineville Clubs Will Bitterly Con-
test the Recent Seizure of
the Stuff.

Salineville, Mar. 16.-The raiding of
the two club rooms and the confisca-
tion of the beer and liquor will be
bitterly contested before Mayor w. A.
Skinner Of this village when the case
comes on for hearing. The members
of the clubs have taken counsel, and
it is said that the Liquor league of
the county will contest the case in
behalf of the club room boys.
Joseph Turnbull of the Crockery
City Brewing Co., was in the village
in the interests of the club room
Toys and it was quietly passed along
that they had some strong points up
their sleeves to turn loose at the
trial. The Anti-Saloon adherents are
very much enthused at present and
feel more than elated over the turn OF
affairs. The club room members
claim that they got all the wet
goods shipped TO them in individual
cases and that they drank only from
their own cases ana did not sell, give
or barter away any of the malt or
spirituous liquids, as alleged in the
affidavits.
Cards are scattered all over the
village with the following printed
thereon, "the lid is on" Mayor w.
A. Skinner guards his confiscated
goods closely for fear Of the bad ele-
ment raiding his cellar where the
goods are stored.

ONE MAN
Seemed to Control the
Turnpike Business in
Hamilton County the
Drake Committee Has
Found Out.

Cincinnati, o., March 16.-The
Drake committee that is investigating
Cincinnati and Hamilton county af-
fairs today had as a witness Judge
Howard Ferris, now judge of the su-
perior court, for IL years probate
Judge.
Judge Ferris acknowledged that al
though he was very well acquainted
with the county officials and had been
interested in turnpikes for many
years, he had to call on Attorney
Charles F. Dole, who managed nearly
all the sales or turnpikes to the coun-
ty before the county commissioners
would buy his turnpike. He said the
pike was considered by many to be
in very bad condition and he had been
enjoined from collecting tolls on 1t
but he declared 1t to be in a very fair
condition. A pike paralleling his had
been sold and made a free thorough
fare, and this of course, hurt his turn
pike business. He finally sold
seven miles of his pike to Hamilton
county for $15,600, Dole getting five
per cent of this for making the sale.
He had sold right of way over it to
a traction line, for $25, 900, before this
MR.. DOLE THE MAN.
George r, Laugher, who owned a
controlling interest in the Clough turn
pike, testified that Judge Ferris had
sent for him as he had a buyer for
that pike. When he came to see judge
Ferris, the latter turned him over to
Attorney Dole, who was engineering
all the sales of pixies to the county.
Dole would not offer him what he
considered fair price and when he.
refused to deal with him, he tDollel
said he Uaugher) could not sell at
all if he offered to sell to the county
commissioners himself
Charles e. Prior, of the legal firm
of which Senator ]. B. Foraker is
the head, tried to negotiate a sale
OF the pike After a while Prior re-
ported that he could not sell the pike.
as the sale had been inteyferel
with"
Laugher still owns the pike, having
been unable to sell it after refusing to
deal with Dole, as he claims.
WHERE THE GRAFT COMES IN.
AS heretofore most of the witnesses
today testified that Attorney Dole,
the turnpike deal manager, wanted to
pay the owners only about $500 per
mile for pixies, for which the county
paid him $4,000 per mile. II has been
claimed that this difference in price
represented graft that eventually
went to various county officials.
Dole himself will probably be on
the stand tomorrow

Suggests Insurance Law.

Columbus, o., March 16.-State In
surance Commissioner Vorys made his
annual report today. Reference was
made to the disastrous efforts of Ohio
authorities to forbid insurance compa-
nies through agent associations to
maintain unlawful rates. The COM
missioner declares in view of the dec
laration of the courts that if it is the
policy of the state to forbid every
combination to fix fire insurance rates
by those who are in control of them
then it is not very clear that authori.
ty has been declared for reaching that
end. He further asserts there should
be an unqualified antitrust law
against fire insurance companies and
agents engaging in the manipulation
of rates.

HORNBLOWER
Comes Back at the Statements Made
by Judge Hamilton.

New York, March 1G.-After read
ing Judge Hamilton's speech in full,
William B. Hornblower dictated "a
statement saying that 80 far as
Judge Hamilton states or implies that
l disbursed any legislative funds dur
ing the Beers administration, his
statement of implication is absolutely
untrue. So far as he states or implies
that | was aware of his disbursing
moneys for the company or receiving
moneys not accounted for as found
by the Fowler committee, such state
ments or implications are absolutely
untrue

will form one of the most interesting
features of the Salem centennial to
the hundreds or thousands of veterans
who, more than forty years ago,
marched under those flags while in
the service of their country. Mr.. Nc

FEE COLLECTOR
May Be Needed in Each County as Re-
suit of the Salary Law.

Columbus, O.. Mar. 16.-The adop
tion of the salary system for county
officials will eliminate in provision
for the establishment in each county
of the distinct Office Of fee collector.
Such was the belief expressed by
Representative Will of Columbiana
county in discussion of the section
in the Wilson salary bill providing
for allowance to such officials of 10
per cent. of all fees collected in ex-
cess of the total cost of maintaining
the office.

Mr.. Hill also expressed decided
preference to specific salaries rather
than those based on receipts of the
Office, contending that in lean" years
receipts might leave officials in some
counties without any reasonable com
pensation.

that the ice in the family ice box was
