And now let us try to consider
the Haywood trial an event of
the past. and that Idaho courts
and officers have been fair. We
have no patience with the agitat-
ors who are trying to keep up
the discussion of the trial and
are denouncing Hawley, Borah
and Others for making honest
and able efforts for conviction.
That was their duty as attor-
neys for the prosecution when
employed by the State. Let us
all say as Haywood has said,
that he bears them no resent
ment.

The Statesman, Sunday morn
ing, coming out only a few hours
before the verdict of the jury in
the Haywood case was announc-
ed, made a wild stab at a pre-
diction Of what the result would
be. 1t reported that the jury
stood eight for conviction for
murder in the first degree and
four for a second degree verdict.
But the Statesman has been I'M
fair in its reports and comments
upon the trial sinceit began, and
it's prophecy as to the result of
the ending was in keeping with
the partiality it has shown.

The Haywood trial came to a
close last Sunday morning when
the jury rendered it's verdict of
aquittal in his case, and it was
the proper thing for the prosecu-
ton to have then moved for d
dismissal of the other men impli-
Gated with him. The state had
selected Haywood as the one Of
the three men charged with the
same offense against whom it
was thought a conviction could
be most easily secured, and fail
ing on him, it will be folly to
hold long and costly trials
over the other cases, and the
State should have promptly
dropped them and proceeded with
the trial of the great self confess
sed criminal, Orchard, and dealt
with him in the summary man
ner the law requires.

What About Our Public Lands7

@A@~O 80 - - n LAAhAN ~ @ nus !
No more important question con-
fronts the American Public today
than that Of our Public Lands. AS
an able Statesman has said:
"They are our National Insur-
ance Policy, insdring National re-
sources tofuture generations. Shall
we compromise or destroy this poll
icy?"
In a recent speech President
Roosevelt says.
THE conservation of our national
resources and their proper use con-
stitute the fundamental problem
which underlies almost every other
problem Of our national life"
"The men whom we have prose-
cuted and those who fear prosecu
ton by US, naturally eudeavor to
break down the policy under which
alone the home-makers' rights can
be secured, and the lands preserved
for the use of himself and his chill
dren."
And he is backing up his beliefs
by a determined effort to enforce
the laws and thereby stop the loot
ing Of the public domain. In this
action he is supported by the senti-
ment Of an overwhelming majority
of the Western people, as we'll as
those familiar with these questions
in the East.
Notwithstanding this, there is
keenly interested element in the
West, made up largely of men in
public office, associated more or less
intimately with the monopolistic
timber, coal-mining and railroad
interests ably supported by the So
