The Washburn leader. [volume] (Washburn, McLean County, N.D.) 1890-1986, 1907-08-09

WASHBURN, NORT1
from Pembina especially to sit in
this case, made his charge to the
jury, he told them that the state
would have to prove that the de-
fendant had brought or sent this
lible to the publisher. "This they
have not proven" he said. If the
jury was to pay any attention what
ever to the judges charge, as they
are supposed, to they could hardly
do anything but acquit him. We
leave it to the reader to judge for
himself as to the justice or injus-
tice Of this. We do not ask any,
one to take our word in regard to
these court proceedings; they are
matters of court record and can be
verified.
We do not wish to pass on Mr..
Gray's guilt or innocence,-th the
jury has decided that he is not
guilty, and in the eyes Of the law,
Gray had nothing to do with max
ing this libel-but we wish to call
your ettention to the fact that Oh
sons bi}terest enemies we're direct
~ interested in the outcome of
this trial, and had there existed an
iota Of evidence against him, they
would surley have brought it up,
for under such favorable conditions
it would have required very little
evidence to prove him guilty.
Mr.. Olson certainly gave them
the opportunity when ne had Gray
arrested, but they all crowded into
their holes, like the sneaks that
they are.
Look about you, and see if any
of these skunks are willing to come
forth and say II circulated it, or
II printed it, No! no! They
dare not, for we'll they know that
the penitentiary would be staring
them in the face.
Taking then into consideration
that the matter was brought up
such a long time after it was sup
posed to have happened; that
nothing was done about it at the
time when, if true, satisfaction
could have been had from Mr.. o.
son; that this was circulated in
secret on the eve of election; that
there is no one to be found who is
willing to take the responsibility
for having printed or circulated it,;
that, at the trial of Gray, not a
word was said to prove the thing
true; that Olson's worst enemies,
the ones who have long boasted
that they would accomplish his
downfall, were deeply interested in
the outcome of the trial and would
have hailed with delight any evi-
dence that would have tended to
cast suspicion on him; we be-
lieve there is but one conclusion
that any person who is in posses
sion of sound reasoning power,
can arrive at and that is
that the whole thing was a
black lie, gotten up and circulated
for the purpose Of defeating a po-
litical opponent. Ye gods! And
to drag an innocent woman's name
in the mud for such purpose.
And should more evidence be
needed, we wish to say that some
time age we read an affidavit made
by Miss Stump on Nov. 13, 1906,
in which she swears that the whole
story is a lie, and come to think
about it, the girl ought to know

hardly fail to attract large share of
public attention next year. The con-
test between predatory wealth on the
one side and the unorganized masses on
the other cannot be put of, although it
is impossible to say in just what form
the issue will present itself.
The young man who is seeking to use
his influence for the promotion of the
welfare of the common people will find
the democratic party the best organiza-
ton through which to act. 1t is not
perfect in it's personnel, but perfection
is not to be expected among men. 1t
may not go as far as all reformers wish
but it is going in the right direction.
1t may be more radical than some con-
servatives would like to have it, but a
reasonable radicalism is necessary if a
more extreme radicalism is to be avoid
ed. The indications are that in 1908
the party will be able to add to those
who have supported it large number
who recognize the necessity of remedial
Legislation fashioned according to dem
ocratic principles. 1t is not the party
of any class or section of the country
1t appeals to rich and poor alike and
promises to secure as far as it can jus
tice to all.

Eight hundred million dollars for
new navy is the proposal Of the Russian
government. With hunger and des-
peration the common lot of a large pro-
portion of it's people it seems the height
of folly for that nation to even think
of such thing; and, besides, what pos
sible use has the king of the north for
great naval armament? Car Nicholas
recently escaped death by assassination
and, commenting upon the incident, he
is reported to have said "As for my
life, it is not precious to me provided
that Russia lives in glory, peace and
prosperity All, the irony and the
bitterness of it all! And yet, in spite
of the hope of peace, and while waiting
for the echo of the cry that has gone
up for the establishment of the brother
hood of man, it is seriously proposed by
this PROSTATE nation to take from it's
people nearly billion of treasure to
satisfy the ambition of wicked pride.
1t is hard to imagine greater outrage.

AUTOMOBILE ROAD RIGHTS.
Supreme Court Rules on Iowa
Automobiles Road RIGHTS,

The motor car law of Iowa was tested
last week by the supreme of this state
for the first time. Autoists are required
to avoid intentional injury to others, but
so far as the right to the highway is
concerned he is equal with any means
of conveyance known on the globe.
Caution and reasonable amount of
care for the safety of others is all that
the law requires. The case in question
is as follows: SIN the case before the
court, H. M. Cramer ran his car up to a
blacksmith shop in Missouri Valley, be-
fore which was hitched team belong
ing to Hugh House. He was on an err
rand for fellow autoist who wanted a
repair. He stopped his machine but
did not stop the sparker. The very
moment he stopped the machine the
House horses reared up, broke away
and ran. House sued for damages and
recovered. The supreme court says
that no case was made for the jury, and
reversed the Judgment of the lower
court. 1t decided that Cramer had a
right to be there, that he did not dis
play negligence and no fair recovery
is POSSIBLE"

When the national association of
manufacturers declared in favor of a re-
vision of the tariff at the earliest posi-
BILE moment the stand-patters at once
sat up to take notice. If the manufac-
turers, for whom the Dingley tariff was
especially made, want it revised what
reason is there for the dense politicians
to persist in their clamoring for re-
tention of that relic of the days when
the cry of the full dinner pail prevailed
to the extent that the American people
submitted to the monstrosity for fear
of threatened calamity. The scheme
was worked for all it would stand and
the favored interests profited by the re-
sulting consequences. But the time
has come when the people Will no long
er sit meekly by and permit themselves
to be wickedly despoiled while the
favored interests thrive upon the
plumber. Tariff revision is in the air
and the stand patters are soon to reap
the whirlwind.

THE LAST OF THE M'KINLEYs.

Mrs Ida Saxton Mckinley went
yesterday to meet her illustrious hus-
band. Theirs was very beautiful
union. When the cultivated young
daughter of the Canton banker and
the future president of the United
States were married it was love
match pure and simple. 1t remained
a very close union while it existed.
When, after the death of her first
born, Mrs. Mckinley became an invalid
and afflicted with mental trouble,
the devotion of her husband redoubled.
Since his death the widow has
sat in her home at Canton, waiting
for the summons that came yester-
day.
ates the family of President Mckinley.
No children are left. But two children,
daughters, were born to the McKinleys,
and these died in childhood. No near
male relative of the great president is
living, and the estate goes to nieces and
sisters.
Perhaps this just as well. The sons
of great men rarely succeed to the
virtues and power of their fathers. To
be the son of great man is handicap
in itself. Perhaps this is one of the
reasons the public and his parents are
disappointed in such sons. Instances
multiply themselves of the mediocre
sons of great sires. Perhaps it is well
that the name that few years ago was
a conjuration in America and spoken
with respect in the far away places OF
the world, is safe from any possible blot
by it's posterity. Not all American
great names have had this assurance

The following telephone story has
been going the rounds of the county
newspapers in nearly every instance
credited to different sources. Whoever
wrote it has had some valuable rural
telephone experience and so we repro
duced it for the editication of our rural
lady patrons, who may have the buttin-
ski habit: did you ever try to talk
over rural telephone and be 'butted
off the line by a couple of gossipers?
We bumped up against this proposition
recently and the dialogue was something
like this: "Hello, Sally, what you been
doen?" Oh, han't got all my dishes
washed yet" "Oh you are lazy,he, he.

No woman can be healthy and we'll if

There seems to be quite boom grow
ing for Governor Johnson, of Minnesota,
for the democratic nomination fop presi-
dent in consequence of the ar
ticle published in the Commoner of
May II, which states that Governor
Johnson can carry Minnesota at the
primaries and at the national election.
This would seem to indicate that Mr..
Bryan has not yet decided to be can
didate and, like other democrats, is
ready to select whoever can best unite
the party, provided he comes up to the
democratic requirements of ability and
honesty of purpose.

Motion for a Directed Verdict in Hay.
wood Case.

Boise, Ida, June 24.-On motion OF
the defense to take the Haywood case
from the jury and instruct for an ac-
quittal on the states evidence there
were four hours of argument. Rich
ardson and Darrow, for the defense,
made eloquent pleas for Haywood.
Senator Borah combatted the pleas OF
the defense and asserted that the
state had proven a general conspiracy,
of which Governor Steunenberg was
the victim, among the officers of the
Western Federation of Miners and
that the issue should go to the jury.
Judge Wood made an immediate rul-
ing. He said:
The court is satisfied that this Is
case which should be submitted to
the Jury. Ordinarily it would be the
duty of the court to give his reasons
for decision in such an important
matter. This would be done In this
instance were it not that others arc
involved besides this defendant. Three
others are accused and two are In
Jail awaiting trial. The motion Is
