Never before since this country
was first visited by white men mas
there been such a scramble for land
as there Is at present. People are
out every day looking for some place
where they may locate. some place
where there is chance to build a
reservoir to store the food waters.
This policy in time will reclaim many
thousands OF acres that have been
generally thought to be forever
worthless.

DEFENSE OF SOCIALISTS.
Bourke Cochran Has Been Engaged to
Defend Them

Attorney E. F. Richardson of Den
yer has docketeu the supreme court
appeals from the decision of the cir
cult court of Idaho in the cases of
Charles H. Aoyer, William D. Hay
wood and George A. PetuDone, who
are held in custody at Caldwell, Ida,
on the charge of completely in the
murder of Ex-Governor Steunenberg.
Meyer is president and Haywood
secretary of the Western Federation
of Miners, and they, as well as Petit
bone. were implicated in the crime
by a confession made by the man Or
chard, who is charged with placing
the bomb with which Steunenberg was
killed
circuit court refusing to grant writs
of habeas corpus.
Richardson has asked the supreme
court to advance the cases in order
to secure a hearing during the pres

Interest in Miners Meeting.
Denver.-Notices are being sent out
from the headquarters of the Western
Federation CT Miners in this city to
local unions urging large attendance
at the annual convention that will
open in this city May %. This is ex-
pected to be the greatest convention in
point of attendance in the history of
the organization, because of the wide
spread interest aroused over the ar
rest of President Meyer, Secretary
Haywood and Geo. A. Pettibone, on
the charge of the murder of ex-Gov-
ernor Steunenberg of Idaho.
1t has been customary for small
unions to deliver their proxies to del
egates from other unions in the same
districts in order to save the expense
of sending men to the conventions, but
acting Secretary James Kerwin is re-
questing locals wherever possible to
send delegates instead of proxies to
the convention this year.
1t is said that Maxim Gorky, the
Russian revolutionist, will take part
in the gathering. Congressman Bourke
Cochran of New York and Clarence
S. barrow Of Chicago, who it is said
have been engaged as additional coun-
sci for the accused federation officials,
are also expected to attend the con-
vention.

When Duncan and Copeland were
dragged from their cells in the Jail
they could say nothing but "Oh," Oh
oh" and it is thought that long be-
fore they We're dragged into the square
that they were completely unconscious
from fright. When they were strung
up to the statue of Justice their bodies
were limp as though they were dead.
Neither made the slightest resistance.
1t developed about midnight that
there were two mobs, one well organ
lied and composed of men, and an
other composed altogether of rowdies.
The first mob reached the Jail at
about the same time as did the mob
composed of boys and ruffians in gen
eral. While the mob was making a
great noise outside the Jail, shooting,
threatening and throwing stones at
the Jail windows, the organized mob
was getting in its best work.

At that instant thin streak of light

HUNG THE NEGROES
WORK OF ANGRY MOB AT SPRING.
FIELD. MISSOURI.
Took Them From Jail and Strung
Them Up In Center of the Pubic
Square and Built a Fire Under Them
as They Hung-Negroes Had AS
sauIted White Girl.

Springfield Mo-, April 15.-A mob
tonight took two negroes from the
county jail and hanged them to me
electric tower in the center of the pub
lie square and built a fire under the
men as they hung
The negroes were Horace Duncan
and James Copeland, both under Fl
years of age. They were in Jail charg-
ed with assaulting Mabel Edmondson,
white girl. Fully 5000 people went
to the county jail about O'Clock, and
with sledge hammers and telephone
poles literally tore the Jail to pieces.
The two suspects were dragged from
the jail and taken to the public square
and hanged. 1t is fully a mile from
the jail to the square, and the mob
marched down one of the principal
streets of the town, shouting and fir
ing pistols.
MaDel Edmondson came here recent
ly from Monet Mo-, to obtain en-
ployment as a domestic servant The
other evening she was riding in bug
gy with Charles Cooper young man
of Springfield. In a secluded part of
the city the couple were held up by
two negroes. The man was knocked
unconscious and the girl dragged from
the buggy and into the woods by the
roadside and assaulted. The two ne
groes lynched were suspected and ar
rested, but were only partially identi-
fed
Circuit Attorney Arthur Sager was
a witness of the tragedy. He slipped
down into the cellar of the Jail and
cut on the gas. hoping to thus confuse
the mob and defeat its plans. He was
just a second too late. as the mob
had secured TIE negroes.
Sheriff Horner tried to argue with
the mob, but it was determined, and
booted and insulted him. Jailer King
was assaulted when he refused to give
up the keys. He finally gave the mob
some keys, which were not for the ne
groes cell, however, and the mob was
forced to smash in the iron doors
Sheriff Wilson Crane of Polk county
was present and tried to induce the
mob not to hang the negroes.
The mob, beside wrecking the Jail
attacked the sheriff's house, demol
ished the furniture and rendered the
sheriff's wife unconscious by threats
and violence.
Will Allen, negro charged will
the murder of a man named Rourks
last January, was next taken from jai
by the mob that lynched Duncan ant
Copeland, and hanged in the public
square.
Allen was perfectly calm and col
lected as he jumped from the scaffold
The rope about his neck broke afte
his weight fell on it. and he dropped
into the charred remains of ms forme
companions in prison. He was takel
up on the tower again and this tim,
his captors we're more successful II

words.
