Boise, Idaho, is now the scene of
one OF the most famous trials in the
history OF our country. 1t is not
merely a murder trial of Haywood for
the murder Of the governor Of the
state. but 1t is trial of the very gov.
ernment under which We live.
Some Of the causes leading up TO
the trial are these: The miners OF
that section, feeling that they were
imposed upon, and in order to thwart
the opposition, organized the Western
Federation of Miners Association.
When the organization was first start
ed it did not have an immediate view
to political activities; they thought
only of promoting their private inter
ests along other lines. They soon
realized that the only way by which
they could gain any real reforms or
better their own conditions was by
intelligent use of the ballot. They
would only vote for and elect those
men who would provide that they
should have better hours of labor and
better wages. They elected their men

Comedians Novel Ruse to Escape Ex-
cessive Cab Fare.
Raymond Hitchcock, the comedian,
who is now on a starring tour through
the west, was recently invited as the
guest of honor to the Country club,
about five miles outside Of San Fran
cisco, after the performance, says Har-
per's Weekly. AS Mr. Hitchcock knew
from previous experience that a cab
man would ask a fortune to carry him
out to the club, he looked up the adj
dress Of a physician near the theater,
and after the close Of the show he
went around and rang the bell. The
doctor opened the door personally, and
Hitchcock said:
doctor, you're wanted Immediately
out near the Country club. Can you
come right away?"
certainly, sir. Just step inside a
moment while I phone for my auto.
Well be there in a jiffy."
1t was good five miles to the Coun-
try club. Just beyond stood a cluster
Of suburban homes
1.-THE yellow house on the left there -
said Hitchcock as he got out of the
machine. by the way, I forgot to ask
you the amount of your fee''
-Four dollars" said the doctor. ..
The comedian peeled off four one
dollar bills and passed them to the
doctor.
'That will be all, thank you, doctor.
None OF these pirate lackynon would
take me out here for less than $15."
