HAWLEY TALKS
TO THE JURY
Arguments Begin in Haywood
Case This Afternoon

BOISE, July 19.-"We have proven,
of doubt the direct responsibility of
this defendant for the series Of crimes
eliminating in the cowardly murder
of Steunenberg." declared Prosecutor
Hawley in the opening summing up
for the prosecution this afternoon.
Hawley took complete advantage Of
every little point made by the wit
nesses who. either directly. or by i'm
plica ton, connected Haywood with
the operations of Pettibone. orchard
Adams and others who, he claimed,
We're participants in the carnival or
crime" in the Coeur d'Alenes and in
Colorado.
Not single statement orchard made
was overlooked and every telling point
was emphasized.
Although on the verge of breaking
down through overwork. Hawley
showed little outward evidence Of ply
sical fatigue.
Hawley defended the rank and file
of the federation from the charges
against the officers. He declared, for
the most part. the members were sim
cere. hard working men who knew
absolutely nothing of the workings Of
the elmer circle" The case may reach
the jury a week from tomorrow.
Hawley will occupy all of Satur-
day, Richardson, Monday and a good
part of Tuesday. Darrow will talk un-
til Thursday night. Borah will talk
throughout Friday
Saturday the instructions of the
court will be given and then the jury
will take the case.
When court reconvened this morn
ing the judge ordered a recess until
2 o'clock explaining he had not yet
completed the examination of the au-
therities and was not ready to hand
down decision as to the admissibili-
ty of the Colorado deportations, ETC..
is evidence.
Judge Wood announced this after
noon he had decided to exclude the
evidence bearing upon the deportations
and actions of the mine owners in
Colorado. This distinctly reverses the
defense and will tell against the de-
fense's contentious that others than
federationists were responsible for the
Vindicator and independence explo-
sions and the attacks upon Peabody,
Bell and Judges Gabbert and Goddard.

purpose of allowing the attorneys

This action came as a surprise to
City Attorney Blandford ard Attorney

The motion for quashing of the first
writ was made shortly before II

afternoon.

Whether or not some of the MEM

BETTER GRANGE SPEAKERS
A New Idea Being Worked Out BY
MICHIGAN State Grange.

Many grange states have their lee
turers' conferences and county depu-
ties meetings, but it remains for Michi-
gan state grange to institute confer
ence for grange speakers Such Il
meeting was held a few weeks age,
which was presided over by the state
master and was really a school Of in
structlon In the fundamentals of
grange doctrines and their presentation
In concise and forceful language-a
sort of normal class for teachers and
speakers. The purpose Of the state
master is to furnish speakers for Po-
mona oranges. so that at least two
may go to each small grange county
and from three to five to each larger
grange county during the year to in
terest the present members of the or
der and to make them feel that they
belong to an important organization in
the Order-namely. the Pomona grange
and to give assistance to the Pomona
lecturer In order that the Pomona
grange programme may be in every
way superior to that of the subordinate
grange. Although the Pomona grange
pays nothing into the state grange
treasury, it is recognized as the gate
way of access to influence upon the
vital grange life of a country. 1t is in
a sense a substate grange. About two
thirds of the expense of sending out
such speakers will be borne by the
state grange and the other third by the
Pomona.
Michigan has herein set an example
worthy to be followed by every other
grange state There is too much aim
less speaking at Pomona oranges and
grange picnics. A few good stories
followed by a more or less practical
talk, followed by more good stories
seems to be the ideal which a good
many grange speakers have before
them, but there is too much real, solid
work to be done. too many real, help
full topics to be discussed, to warrant
any state grange in sending out men
who are inclined to make an interest.

Grange Dairyman's League.

The oranges of Orange county have
organized the Dairyman's league. The
object is to dispose Of the products Of
the dairy of its members to the best
advantage, to make collections for the
same and to promote or defeat leglsla-
ton affecting the dairy interests. A
membership fee of % cents per cow
is charged, but no subscriptions are
binding until the signatures represent
ing $4,000 cows have been secured.
The secretaries Of subordinate oranges
are to report to the chairman of the
milk committee of the Orange County

signatures received. The board of
managers are to endeavor to contract
for the sale Of the milk of the local
branches at the same time. The grange
