MINERS MAGAZINE.
Mr.. barrow turned his attention to
the Miners Magazine. He said that
probably many foolish and intem-
perate things crept into it, but the
editors had no college education and
Meyer and Pettibone paid little a,ten-
ton to it,

the Miners Magazine not introduced
by the state. We will show that they
did not advise violence. and that they
counselled a wise administration and
discussed the economic conditions
temporarily. Continuing Mr.. Darrow
said:
'COEuR D'ALENE TROUBLE.
This brings us to 1899 and the
troubles in the Occur d'Alenes when
Steunenberg was governor. The West
ern Federation of Miners was get
ting along all eight Then something
happened. An irresponsible mob of
1000 people made up of miners and
merchants, preachers and hangers-on
and everyone who wanted ride went
down and the Bunker Hill and sui
liVan mines were blown up. The
powder was furnished by rival COM
pany. Al that time Harry Orchard
who is in this case, haf been there
for Il month carrying union card
Jack Simpkins was in the Occur
d'Alenes.
Then came the call for troops.
Rightly or wrongly. Steunenberg called
for troops Jack Simpkins was arrested
and thrown into the bull-pen.' He was
maltreated. He was stood up at a post
by colOred soldier and a bOyonet was
driven into his breast.
HARRY ORCHARD.
Harry Orchard was In the Occur
d'Alenes. Harry Orchard was cheap
soldier of fortune, strongstring gam
bier who had never done days work
in his life He owned a sixteenth share
of the Hercules mine. but sold 1t be-
cause of his needs and continued his
gambling. The mine didn't yield until
1901. But Orchard hoping on. stayed
around to get a share of the mine.
we don't think that Orchard was at
the Bunker Hill and Sullivan mill. We
will show that he did moi participate in
most of the crimes of which he has here
boosted. ] don't like to take any of
the bloom off n peach like that, but
while we will show that he Is not the
murderer he boasts himself, we Will
compensate him by proving him to be
the most monumental liar that ever
existed.
WILL CONTRADICT ORCHARD.
Before our first witness leaves the
stand gentlemen of the jury, we VIII
convince you. We will even convince
Mr. Hawley himself that this man Or
chard has lied about most ~ the es-
sential points OF his story We Viii
have from 20 TO 80 witnesses who will
take the stand and contradict this man
absolutely. Some of these witnesses

nently respectable people who have
never done days work in theft lives.

Mr. Darrow's sarcasm caused wave aft

Sometimes the baiiffs had to rap for

ORCHARDS WANDERINGs.
Mr.. Darrow briefly sketched the wan
derings OF Orchard as related by that
witness himself. Orchard remained in
the Coeur d 'Alenes, he said. trying 10

But from 1899 to 1902 this important
