tial campaign. We have often trusted
him, and have many times given him
high commission.
His clean life in public and in the
home, his olearnesS of concept, his
character, his courage and his great
ability have long appealed to us.
His love of the people, from whose
loins he came, the faith he has for in
situations, and in Republican .princi-
pies, his ripe experience in public af-
fairs, the support he has given Presi-
dent Roosevelt in the senate and in
his present high office, and the memory
of the confidence and affection in which
the late President Mckinley held him,
lead us to declare him great and broad
and brave enough to deal with the new
conditions now before the country.
1--WE ask his leadership with full con-
fidence in his wisdom and his patriot
ism, and promise him, in return, our
highest effort and best endeavor to Sc
cure for him the commission Of his par
ty at the national convention to be
held at Chicago next June"

eridge presided, and made the principal
address, dwelling on the notable ac-

and a number of candidates for places
on the state ticket with their friends.
The gathering was large and enthusi-
astic.

WiLI BE Considered a Joke.

Asked tonight what the course of
the miners would be in face of this lat
est move of the opposition, Mahoney
said:
AN Injunction of this kind, if issued,
will mean that there is nothing left for
the miners to do but to go jump into
the sea. Had the petition been for
writ restraining the miners from pick
citing or boycotting, l would not have
been surprised. In the bill of COM
plant, however, as L understand it.,
there are two new points: one, the
prayer for an order of the federal court
prohibiting the mil'ers from continuing
their organization on the ground that
it is a nuisance; the other point that
is new is that Goldfield miners union
be dissolved. Any judge and set of
men who fancy that the GOldfield min
ers will tamely submit to such proceed
ure are greatly mistaken. l would ia
vor ignoring any such order from any
court in existence. Injunctions have
come to be a mere joke to the Ameri-
can people, and this one would be the
biggest joke of all. We shall fight il
with every weapon at our disposal.
There would be nothing else for us to
do.
I assume that the watchers or ex-
aminers suggested in the bill of COM
plant means deputy United States
marshals. These would tend to en-
bitter the elements to this controversy
more than federal troops
Charles s. MaCKinnOn of the local
union declared the union would fight
such an injunction.
Look to Governor Sparks to Act.
Residents of Goldfield are expecting
to hear at any moment that Governor
Sparks has decided to call an extra
session of the legislature TO adopt new
laws looking to the organization of a
body of state rangers or police to pre-
serve law and order in case of trOu-
bic over the outcome of the dispute
which now threatens to be long-draWn
out.

Judge Wood 0verruIeS Motion
Made by Defense for
Dismissal.
STATEMENT BY BARROW
ATTORNEY SITS WHILE DELIV-
RING OPENING ADDRESS.

Boise, Ida, Dec. 26.-Too i'll to stand
while speaking to the jury, Clarence
Darrow, chief counsel for the defense
in the PettibOne trial, sat in his chair
this afternoon as he outlined his case.
He spoke with effort at times, and new
er raised his voice above a converse
tonal tone. The members of the Jury
ana an audience that crowded the court
room listened to every word from the
chicago attorneys lips as he explained
the theory of the defense. DarroW's
statement made il evident that TO a
great degree the same line of defense
would be followed as in the Haywood
trial.
Judge Fremont Wood this morning
denied the motions filed by the defense
that verdict of acquittal be advised
by the court The three motions, to ad-
wise an acquittal on the ground of the
unconstftutionality of the Idaho stat
ute under which the defendant is being
prosecuted, to advise acquittal on the
ground of variance between proofs and
the indictment charging Pettibone with
the crime, and advise an acuuittal for
want of sufficient confederation of the
accomplice- The first two We're quickly
disposed of, Judge Wood holding that
the statutes were plain on these sub
jects. In considering the motion to ad-
wise an acquittal for want of sufficient
cOrrObOratiVe evidence, Judge Wood re-
viewed the Independent testimony on
each of the crimes confessed by Or
chard and stated that in his opinion
| there was sufficient Confederation OF
| each of them to require the submission
| thereof TO the jury. Concluding, Judge
Wood said:

Must Go to Jury.


Il think the facts already in evidence
tend to show conspiracy as contended
for by the prosecution, and 1 think that
the independent testimony sufficiently
tends to connect the defendant Petit
bone Herewith to require the submits
sion thereof to the jury"
Judge Wood stated that there was no
Independent testimony connecting the
defendant with the killing of Steunen-
berg, but this he considered was suf-
ficient to submit the case to the Jury.
On the converting of court this after
noon, DarrOw asked permission to re-
main seated as he addressed the jury,
and his request was granted. He re-
viewed briefly the early life of Petit
bone in Pennsylvania and of his coming
west and engaging in mining in the
Occur d Alenes, where he became presi-
dent of the Gem union. In 1892, barrow
said, the defendant left the Occur
d Alenes and never engaged in mining
again.
TT was a number of years after he
went to Denver" continued DarroW.
that Pettibone heard of the Western
Federation of Miners. But one day he
learned of a convention that was to be
held and he attended it, becoming ac-
quainted with the officers and leading
members
He was later made an honorary
member of the organization. He never
attended a meeting of a local union in
his life, never paid any dues and never
had anything to do with forming poll
cies of. the organization"
Harry Orchard was referred to by
Darrow as a man always looking for
easy money, who never stuck to any
thing except gambling and who always
made friends everywhere, whether in
the mining camps or in the peniten-
tiary. He told of Orchards transfer
ring his interest in the Hercules to Car
doner, from whom he always had the
hope of getting his claim back, and said
the defense would show that he tried
to sell this interest a year after he had
disposed of it to Gardener.
Orchard Swore Vengeance.
I'VE will prove to you by fifteen or
twenty Witnesses said DarrOw, that
Orchard swore vengeance on Steunen-
berg for the alleged loss of his rich
Hercules interests. The only other man
who had any interest in taking the life
of Steunenberg was Jack Simpkins. and
