or his connection with Simpkins.
Haywood Denies Crimes.
Like Meyer, Haywood said he had
never heard Orchard make threats
against Steunenberg. Haywood in
many particulars confirmed Orchard,
but where Orchard connected Hay
wood or the Western Federation with
crime the witness was emphatic and
prompt in his denials. He showed no
desire to conceal the fact that Orchard
had visited him at his house, or that
he on different occasions had intimate
conversations with Orchard. He de-
nounced the administration of Colo
RADIO at the time of the troubles as cor
rupt and he extolled the Western Fed
Grafton.

TRIAL OF HAYWOOD
For Murder of Gov. Steunenberg.
HAYWOOD on Stand in Own Defense.

haywood OH GldTEQ III oWu bCICHSGs
Boise, Idaho, July 12.-Charles HI.
Meyer went on the stand yesterday as
witness for his fellow defendant,
William H. Haywood, and besides
making positive denial Of all the
crimes attributed to him and the other
federation leaders by Harry Orchard,
offered an explanation of the unsolic-
tied appearance of the Western Fed
Grafton of Miners as the defender of
Harry Orchard Immediately after his
arrest at Caldwell for the murder of
Gov. Steunenberg.
Meyer swore that it was Jack Simp-
lins who engaged Attorney Fred Mill
er at Spokane to go to Caldwell
To Represent Orchard,
then known as Thomas Hogan, and
that it was at the request of Simpklns
that the witness and Haywood had
subsequently advanced $1,000 from
the funds of the federation to meet
the expense of defending Orchard.
Meyer denied that he had ever dis
cussed any kind of criminal act with
Orchard or any one else, or that he
had ever given him a cent except for
expenses on the trip Orchard made to
Ouray as a bodyguard for him. He
said that he had no personal feeling of
hostility for Steunenberg, and there
were no circumstances that would
make him desire the life of john Ne
vile, whom Orchard testified Meyer
wanted killed.
Meyer Denies Orchards Story.
Meyer denied that he participated in
the conference in Petitioners back
yard, where Orchard said he, Hay
wood and Pettibone had discussed va
rious acts of violence; denied knowl-
edge of the subsequent meeting a.
federation headquarters, where Or
chard swore that Steunenberg's and
NeviIle's executions were planned,
and denied the material statements in
all of Orchards testimony.

Mover on Stand for His comrade.

Meyer on Stand for His Con1Tade.
Boise, Idaho, July 13.-William D.
Haywood took the oath yesterday as a
witness in his own defense, and in
lengthy narrative of his life and his
work as a leader of his fellow miners,
denied guilt of the murder Of Frank
Steunenberg and the manifold crimes
charged against him by Harry Or
chard.
HayWood's testimony was chiefly
characterized with positive denials of
allegations made against him by the
prosecution. He denied that he met
Orchard until some time after the Vim
Dictator explosion; denied that he sent
Orchard back to Cripple Creek to blow
up the independence station; denied
participation in the Lyle Gregory MUIR
der, and denied suggesting or discuss
ing the Steunenberg murder.
Never Gave Orchard Money.
He swore that he never gave Or
chard any money at any time or place
for any purpose. He declared that he
never made a threat against Steunen-
berg, whom he said he regarded only
as he did any politician who is being
sWayed by capitalistic influence. The
direct examination had not reached
the connection of Jack Simpkins and
the action Of the federation after Steu-
nenberg was murdered when adjourn
ment interrupted it.

: The mail order citizen may think he
is gaining; the truth is he is saving
off the limb upon which he sits. Dis
aster only can follow. The mail or
der citizen makes his money locally
and sCatters it abroad in a field where
it is not needed; this is unfair to both
the town and to its merchants. This
shOrtsightcd citizen complains of the
size and character of his town paper
at the same time he pursues a policy
which tends to destroy both. Then
publishers ought to be careful how
they exploit and give publicity to the
mail order houses; even if they are
paid well for the space, it reacts dis
astrously on the towns best pros
poets.
Let men stand by the local mer
chant, let them protect his interests
for they thus further their own. The
town that made the man should be
made by the man. This is fair to all
Let men ponder well this truth, that
we are all interdepcndent; that the
vein of brotherhood underlies the en-
tire social and commercial fabric
That together we stand or fail; that
the good of the country demands 10y
atty and practical cooperation.

Fortunate Men of Prominence.

dent, Hamburg merchant prince left
more than 81 900 600 to the emperor's
chancellor, whom Kaiser William i'm
mediately created Prince" Buelow
William Jennings Bryan recently
came by wealth in the same way. In
England Lord Allerton has received
St00.000 from an admirer of his public
career and Dr. jameson inherits a sun

Wealthiest was Nield, who bequeathe
to her the sum of 81 $50, 900.

BRYAN AS ALECTuRER.

The lecture given at the Opera house
here last Thursday night by William

THE Old World and Its Ways p In a
delightfully."- easy conversational style
and mode OF delivery the speaker mar
rated his experiences IN the trip he aud
his family made around the world last
year. In his Enthusiastically vivid
and charming manner he described the
manners, customs and institutions Of
many of the countries in the Old World

dealt with matters more or less familiar

consummate command of English, his
pre-eminence in every realm Of true

sequent high ideals Of life
For most platform speakers who talk
on a subject pertaining to geography
and history it is not an easy matter to
hold the sustained rapt attention of a
mixed audience for nearly two hours at
stretch. But Bryan can do it, and he
does it wherever he appears for the lie

theme Of the nature Of that above
mentioned does succeed in supplying
an incentive, or rather stimulus, for
further study in geography and history
on the part of those who are widely read
in history, geographical literature,
travel and such books as "Stoddard's
Lectures, he does indeed meet severe
test Of proficiency as a platform speaker

SAVE ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ON A
PIANO.

The 500 that it ordinaril y takes to
sell a piano by means of local canvassers
can be saved by getting your piano
direct from the worlds largest music
house, Lyon q Healy, Chicago.
Lyon q Healy often sell from 20 to 30
pianos direct in a single day. And the
cost of handling this immense business
is very little greater than that of a
smaller concern selling only few pianos
II month, thence the great advantage of
dealing with them.
The freight on n piano from Chicago
to this city is only few dollars, and
you run absolutely no risk in ordering
from Lyon & Healy, for if the piano
they send you is not satisfactory, they
agree to pay freight both ways.

Many hold forth the idea that the

This is only partially true. That doc
trine has been preached till the text

wiser for men to get a new text and
talk and work the country up. then
allow the city, including its mail or
der Octopus, to work its own prob
lens awhile. This, instead of being
selfishness, would be the finest order
of common sense. A more marked
feeling of brotherhood interest is
sadly needed in the country on this
particular point.

Listen to these thoughtful words
from Gov. Folk, of Missouri: We

man. AS it is to-day, these words are
