DEFENSE DRIVING ORCHARD TO CONFESS
MANY ADDITIONAL Grimes And DEVILTRIES
Orchard Shown Have Been So Poor During Time lie Alleges He Was Tracking Sunen
berg in Pay Of Haywood He Had 10 Steal for Living Cannot Be
Shaken However, On His Main Testimony,

come rich, defense asked witness if,
disappointed and angered at his own
hard luck in selling out his holdings
when Steuenenberg was in North
Idaho, he had not suddenly decided to
borrow enough money from Paulson to
take him to Caldwell, where he would
murder the man whom he blamed for
his misfortune. Orchard strenuously
denied that this was his motive.
The earlier part of the day. was con-
sumed with a review, from the stand
point of defense, of the alleged plots
against Governor Peabody, Judge Cab
bert, Judge Goddard and General Sher-
man Bell. .
Soon after Orchard left the stand
David Coates said: @ 4.
Il do not care at this time to discuss
the testimony given by Orchard, / will
have an opportunity to reply in full
when I go on the stand for the defense.
'You may say, however, that Simp-
z
kins never talked to me about the
kidnapping Of Paulson's children
Orchard did come to me and outlined
the plot. He said that he wanted I'd
hdnap Paulson's children and get .
bunch OF money. ] told him that biz
was fooling and that il he attempted
to do so ] would denounce him publicly
and that he would be run cut Of Wal
lace.
Coates served a term as Lieutenant
governor of Colorado. having beer
elected on the Populist ticket. Aftel
leaving Colorado he went to Wallacs
and a few months was proprietor of s

Idaho. first suggested the kidnapping
to Pettibone and himself. Paulson,
who was once poor miner, had made
a fortune in a mine in which Orchard
held an interest when the property
was thought valueless, and it was be-
lieyed that if his children were kid
mapped he would come through with
$50, 900 or $50 900 in ransom
Orchard said that when he went to
North Idaho he persuaded Jack simp-
kins to come in on the plot, and
they went to Coates to renew the
scheme. Coates, who was In court,
was asked to stand up for Identified,
ton and, facing him, Orchard said he
was the man. Orchard was then asked
if he himself had not proposed the
crime to Coates, who Immediately re-
buffed him and IL Jack simpkins had
not warned Paulson the minute he
heard Of the plot. Orchard denied both
suggestions, and reiterating his first
story, and insisted that Coates had
consented to stay in the plot and
handle the money that they hoped to
get out Of Paulson.
The defense showed up the witness
in the commission Of a series Of
crimes and reduced to poverty in
which he had to resort to pawn shop
borrowing and theft TO live for a long
period. II
Then with man named Cunning
ham, who he said Vincent st. John had
recommended to- him as safe and
tried, he discussed the project to give
Cunningham an old bomb, which he
Istill had In his trunk, for use on some

inon-union men at the Tiger and Poor
man mine. Then he accepted the hos
pitality Of Paulson's home, even while
he was plotting to steal the Paulson
children.
Later, with Jack Simpkins. he broke
into the Oregon Railway and NaViga-
ton Company's station. They were
after a trunk full Of jewelry samples,
but instead got shoe samples.
Next he tapped" a cash register at
Burke for $50 or $40. It was long
period of crime and poverty and hard
luck, and, summing it up, the defense
wanted to know why, If he were in
Idaho on a mission Of murder for Hay
wood or Pettibone and with unlimited
credit from them, he did not send to
them for money instead of borrowing
and stealing? Orchard replied that he
did send a letter to Haywood at Butte
and got 800 but he did not send for
more as he was of the Steuene nberg
errand and away form where Steuen-
enberg was, and he did not want to
send for more money until he could
show that he was back to work.

Orchard had borrowed $500 from Paul

PROHIBITION
Attorney General McCue In
tends to See That Law
Is Enforced
No Special enforcement Of
fiCer Needed to Con.
Vict ViOIatOrs
Associated Press to Bismarck Tribune

Associated Press to Bismarck Tribune
Notwithstanding the fact that there
is no temperance commissioner whose
especial duty 1t is to enforce the pro-
hibition law, there will be no failure
on the part Of Attorney General MeCue
to see that the law is enforced and to
lend all assistance necessary to the
county officers of the state toward the
enforcement Of this and all laws of
the state.
Early in his term before the passage
of the temperance commissioner law,
Mr.. McCue announced that it would
be his policy in every possible way to
assist with the enforcement of the
prohibition law, and of all other laws.
In letter written to thestates at
torney of the various counties of the
state since the temperance commits
sioner law was declared unconstitu-
tional, Mr.. McCue says:
Dear Sir: The recent decision Of
our Supreme court declaring the law
establishing the temperance commits
sioner unconstitutional may lead in
tsome quarters to the conclusion that
-FOUR prohibition law viii not be as eff
fectively enforced. s#
| Fearing that this conclusion may
be arrived at in certain quarters 4 de-
lsire to make a statement so that the
policies Of this Office may be thorough
" understood. The temperance COM
mis- sion SlEEd hare sased.
you and this officea.a great deal of
work, but believe the law is ample
to enable the officers to effectively en-
force the prohibition law.
What 4 say here, no doubt, is un-
necessary as far as your county is con-
cerned, because am well aware that
you have performed your duty, but
am sending this letter to the states
attorneys so there may be no misun-
| Outstanding as to my position upon the
question of the enforcement of this
1 law. "
| I therefore desire that you rigidly
enforce the law in your county, in
struct the sheriff and peace officers as
to their duties and compel them to be
/ vigilant and see that this law is en-
forced, and whenever it becomes nee
essary to have assistance from this
office it will be cheerfully given.
| I think that if you impress upon the
people who are inclined to comply
with law and order the fact that the
duties of your Office require you to en-
force it in good faith, this class of
citizens will desist from violating the
law, while those who do not take this
advice and insist upon dealing in the
Illegal traffic of Intoxicating liquors,
contrary to law, will have to suffer the
consequences of their Illegal acts.
