the HAYWOOD TRIAL.

James H. Hawley, leading counsel
for the state of Idaho, presenting the
first of the arguments to the jury in
the case against William D. Haywood,
closed Saturday after speaking for
nearly eight hours, distributed over
three sessions of court. With the ut
most deliberation MI. Hawley charged
willful perjury against several wit
nesses. He argued the truth of Or
charG's story and said that two men
in particular might have been brought
to contradict him, but that the defense
was afraid to produce either Pettibone
or Adams. Mr.. Hawley said he did
not charge that a majority, or even
that many of the Western Federation
of Miners were criminals, but that the
evil deeds of the officers and of the
scum of the organization had brought
discredit on the rank and file. The
time had come; he said, when right
thinking men should make war upon
the evil influences that were the curse
of all labor organizations.
During the cross-eXamination OF
Harry Orchard, who was recalled to
the stand during the states rebuttal,
Attorney Richardson brought out a
new feature when he asked If Or
chard's maternal grandfather was not
insane on the subject of imaginary
crimes. Orchard admitted that his
uncle, Peter Mckinney, who lived in
Northumberland, Ont, had hanged
himself while insane. He denied all
knowledge Of a grandfather named
Patrick McKinncy.

The fire Of last Tuesday carried
away an old land mark in Wash

built Of log in 1882 and was used
as a general merchandise store by

In 'S6 it was moved to it's present
site and used as a saloon for a
number Of years. Another part Of
the building was the old Times Of

Typewriter
The Standard Visible Writer

You can write any of these things yourself if
you do not happen to have a stenographer.
For you can easily learn. with a little practice,
to write just as rapidly, and as perfectly, as an
expert operator on the Oliver. Because the
Oliver is the simplitied typewriter. And you
can see every word yon write. About so per
cent more durable than any other typewriter,
because it has about 80 per cent less wearing
points than most other typewriters.
20 per cent easier to write with than these
other complicated intrit ate machines that
require '.humoring''-technical knowledge
long practice and special skill to operate.
Than machines which cannot be adjusted to
any special s%pace-withw which it is impossible
to write abstracts, insurance policies, or odd
sized documents except you buy expensive
special attachments requiring experts to
operate.
You can adjust the Oliver to any Reasonable
sp.ce-.yOu can write on anv reasonable size
and thickness Of paper, right out to the edge,
with out the aid OF any expensive attach
meut or special skill, and your work will be
neat appearing, legible and clear.
For the Oliver is the typewri ritter for the doc
tor, the lawyer, the insurance agent, the mer-
chant, the hotel .proprietor-or any man who
does his WI writing.

fed features of the Oliver.

Bankers Called
Upon for Help.

North Dakota Bankers are be-
ing called upon this year to &C
lively assist the state department
Of agriculture and labor in secur-
ing harvest hands for the farmers.
Realizing from the experience of
last year the difficulty which
the farmers had during seeding
time this year in securing suffici-
ent help that there is likely to be
a great demand for harvest hands
when harvest time arrives Com
missioner Of Agriculture w. @.
Gilbreath is planning a vigorous
campaign to assist the farmers. In
a letter addressed to the First Ma
tional Bank at this city, he states
that he will open an Office in the
twin cities for the purpose Of secur-
ing help for the farmers, provid-
ing there exists a sufficient demand
to make this advisable.
The commissioner further says
that he desires the cooperation Of
of the bankers Of the state in order
that the plan may be effectually
carried out. He proposes that the
bankers assist the department and
the farmers by listing the apple
cations for help, as they are brot
in by the farmers in each locality.
In this way the department will
know when a request is made for
laborers. that it comes from a re-
liable and responsible source and
that when the men are sent to a
given point they will find the
work which they are sent to per-
form.
By this means the work will be
systematized and the bankers will
be of great assistance both to the
and to the department of
agriculture and labor.

At last the ve1atious work was an

end OF the final days Sorx he left the
Office OF Fouts in Wall street. and
walked up Broadway. He went slow

IT was the afternoon OF day when the

as he loitered before shop windows or

hurriedly, welcome little breeze came
up from the bay TO fan him and en-

have taken car to go the remainder
