HAYWOOD NOT Guilty.
Western Miners Leader Is Freed By
Boise Jury.

William ID. Haywood, defendant In,
one of the most noted trials involving
conspiracy and murder that the coun-
try has even known, walked out of
Jail at Boise, Idaho, Sunday free
man, acquitted of the murder Of for
mer Gov Frank Steunenberg.
The probability of a verdict Of ac-
quittal in the case of the secretary
treasurer and acknowledged leader of
the Western Federation OF Miners had
been freely predicted since Saturday.
when Judge Fremont Wood read his
charge, which was regarded as strong
ly favorable to the defense in its inter-
probation of the laws of conspiracy,
circumstantial evidence and the cor
roboration Of an accomplice who con-
fesses.
1t was also freely predicted that in
the event of Haywocd's acquittal the
state would abandon the prosecution
Of his associates. Chas. II. Meyer, the
president Of the federation, and Geo.
A. Pettibone, of Denver. Statements
from counsel and from Gov. Gooding
issued Sunday dispel this view of the
situation. GOV. Gooding said:
THE verdict is great surprise to
me, and l believe to all citizens of
Idaho who have heard or read the evil
dence in the case.
II have done my duty. I have no
regret as to any action I have taken,
and my conscience is clear. AS long
as God gives me strength 1 shall con-
tinue my efforts for government by
law and for organized society.
"The state will continue a vigorous
prose cutian of Meyer. Pettibone and
Adams. and Tom Simpkins when ap-
pretended. There will be neither hesi-
tation nor retreat"

THUG RULE in CONGO
LEOPOLD ASSAILED IN BRITISH
HOUSE OF LORDS.
Archbishop of Canterbury Recalls that
Great Britain's Determined Stand
is Responsible Tor Leopold Being
Put In Control.

The System OF government in the
Congo independent state is one of UNI
restrained tyranny, enforced by the
sword and bullet, by cruelty and by
murder"
These words were spoken by Lord
Monkswell, who raised the Congo
question in the English house of lords
Monday. The attendance in the house
was small.
Continuing, Lord Monkswell said
the Congo government was powerful
engine of greed which imprudenty
and insolently violated the limitations
and restrictions under which it's rights
over this territory had been granted.
The speaker quoted authorttieS to sup
port his statements, and added that an
especial responsibility attached to
Great Britain, because except for her
determined action the king of Portu-
gal and not the king Of the Belgians
would at this moment have been the
ruler of the Congo.
The archbishop of Canterbury de-
clared that the Congo was one of the
most dis4ieartening and huniliating
of contemporary questions. He said
1t was a CHASTITY irony to read today
the words of the address presented to
King Leopold by the city of London
in 1884, congratulating his majesty
upon his quite "bloodless victory" He
declared the British government
should be reminded of the sense of re-
sponsibility of all Englishmen in this
matter.

JAPAN'S NAVAL PLANS.
Not Changed by Developments of Past
Few Weeks

Gil Bias, of Paris, published Friday
an interview with Vice Admiral Ihuin,
commander of the Japanese squadron
now at Brest. on the Japanese navy.
Asked if Japan had not decided, in
view Of the recent happenings, to en-
large her program in naval cOnstruc-
ton, the vice admiral replied:
I'VE have naval program for sew
eral years ahead. and we shah execute
1t punctually and righteously. as do
the great nations Of Europe. But this
program has not been enlarged of re-
cent months, and it stands as it did
when originated by the admiralty last
year"
The vice admiral said it was inexact
to declare the Japanese loan would be
used for increase of naval power. and
explained that this money would be
devoted to the construction Of rail-
roads and other communication in
Manchuria.

NJ G. He will report to Washington
that his efforts to restore peace was
fruitless.
Judge Lyon, of the superior court,

1t is reported the grand jury re-
turned an indictment against the rail-
roads at Old Fort also. The places
being in Mcdowell county, all prepa-
rations We're made for the issuance OF
writs of habeas corpus.
Several superior court judges have
ignored the subject Of a conflict be-
tween the federal and state courts,
and Judge Moore advised against fur
ther indictments Of ticket agents. Judge
Lyon. however, declared the ticket
agents were violating criminal stat
ute and should be indicted like a pig
or a horse thief."
Officials of the Southern railway
here contend that the governors de-
mand that they should put the 2A =
cent rate into effect at once involves
the company's surrender. 1t also in
wolves, they assert, the surrender by
the United States court of the protec-
ton Of the introductory injunction,
which means that the governor Of a
state con control the limit of the pro-
cesses of a United States court and
that the governor can dictate to lit
igants in the United States courts the
measure Of relief which they have the
right to apply for. This, they say, is
a limitation by order Of the governor
of their constitutional rights.

matte Test OF Exclusion.
There has been a diplomatic ties,
between the United States and Japan
of the question of japanese exclusion
which is the dynamite underlying the
good relations between the two. The
United States proposed that a protocol
to the present treaty should be drawn
in which Japan would give further
countenance to the American policy Of
excluding Japanese coolies. In return
for this the United States would con-
fer upon Japanese in the United Statel
and upon the bettor classes hereafter
admitted the right of naturalization.
which is now withhold. This was not Y
sufficient attraction. The Japanese
foreign minister refused to enter into
such a protocol. Japan is firmly re-
solved that when a new treaty is nego-
tiatea TO succeed that Of 1894 it shall
be rid of the obnoxious provision
which now gives the United States suf-
ficient latitude to exclude Japanese
labor If it so desires.

HIGHER PHONE ASSESSMENT.
Increase of S223.OOO Made by the
State Board.

increase of S223.000 Made by the
State Board.
The state board of assessment has
completed it's work on telephones and
telegraph lines in the state and has
increased valuations on both these
classes of property. The increase on
telephones amounts to $223,000 over
the valuations of last year, and most
of this was placed upon local ex-
changes and toll lines which are rev.
enue producing property, and the
country local exchanges were reduced
in most cases, it being shown on the
reports filed that many of them do
no toll business, the expenses being
kept up by assessments on the NOM
bers, and in many cases the instTu-
ments used on the lines are only rent
ed, and not the property of the MEM
bers along the line. This class Of lines
were given a reduction, and all the in
crease either comes from new lines
or increased valuations on revenue
producing lines and systems. The to-
tai footing, as left by the board for
this year, is $S63,O00

Busy in the State

Busy in the state
The state insurance department is
looking after insurance companies
which are attempting to do business in
this state without authority. In that
line Insurance Commissioner BasfOrd
Is sending to the bankers Of the state
a circular letter calling their atten-
ton to the fact that wild cat" COM
panies are attempting to write bur
glary insurance in the state and that
any such insurance is illegal and prob
ably not collectible in case the COM
panies desire to fight any claims for
losses which may be made to them.
The writing of such unauthorized in
surance makes someone liable to q
fine of not less than 500 nor more
than $500, and is mighty poor insur-
ance. The commissioner gives as the
legal companies under the state law
which are entitled to write burglary
insurance: The United States Fidel-
ity and Guarantee Company of Bal
umore, the American Surety COM
pany and the National Surety, both of
New York; the Western Surety COM
pany Of Sioux Falls, The Equitable
Fidelity and Guarantee company OF
Brookings. He asks the banks to note
this list.
