 0N 4 STRIKE That Is What Delayed the Steamer Lucille Rowland at Memphis One Day-Ar- rived This Morning,
LEFT FOR THECAPITAL

Ihe steamer Lucille NoWiaua arriv- ed from Memphis this morning at z o clock and after unloading q large anount of freight al the local landing, left at D. m. for Little Rock. The steamer was delayed one day at Mem phis on account of a strike among tbe negro roustabeuts. The boat was due here Thursday noon
 Until Thursday it Was not known at this point what steamer the Arkansas River Packet Company would send up the river to Little Rock on the second trip of the new schedule of steamers between Memphis and Little Rock. The local office of tbe Inman Company was notified by Capt. Ed Rowland of the Arkansas River Packet Company yesterday that the Rowland, Whici, made the initial trip last week, would also make the second trip, but that it would not arrive at Little Rock until tomorrow morning, as the negro roustabouts employed on the boat had gone out on strike for higher wages and that the boat was delayed for about 24 hours on the up-riVer trip in consequence
 About 20 roustabouts are employed on the steamer Rowland They are paid wages ranging from $75 to $1O0 a month, and are also furnished with their board. It is understood that the strike was compromised
 Although 1000 bales were taken out of Little Rock by the Now land last week only 500 bales will be taken out on the trip this week. According to statements made by Capt Ed Rowland and others, how ever, the Rowland will take out 5000 more bales owned by the ln- man Cotton company during the next few weeks, and it is thought by the time the Inman company has disposed of it's cotton that is congested at that point that other cotton companies will be prepared to ship their cotton by water in stead of rail
 A large party of Pine Bluffians, men, women and children were pas sengers on the Rowland when she steamed away for the capital city. River travel will be more popular than railroad travel between this city and Little Rock if the boat service between this city and Little Rock is continued through the summer months.

No people have more right to
rejoice over the completion of the
trial just closed in Boise, Ida.,
than those of Colorado. From the
beginning to the end of the case
this state was held conspicuously
in the limelight. Every crime
and outrage that had been CON-
mitted during the troublous times
of the Peabody administration
was held up to the gaze of the en-
tire country. The real offense
with which Haywood was charged
was lost sight of in the celebrated
case and the murder of Steunen-
berg seemed matter of secondary
consideration throughout the trial.

There is some talk of a, special
session of the legislature being
called to amend the Railway Com
mission act passed by the last

A conference was held in Den
yer yesterday between a commit
tee from the striking G. g. s.
switchmen and Vice-President
Parker Of the railroad company
and it now looks as though the
differences of the strikers will be
amicably adjusted without gen.
eral tie-up. 1t is hoped that this
will be the case. Should the
strike be prolonged for any in
definite period it would work a
great hardship upon the residents
of the cities and towns on the
lines of the railways involved. 1t
would effect Gilpin county severe
ly as conditions have barely re-
sumed their normal state since the
suspension of freight transporta-
ton to and from this section dur
ing the washout. When there is
no freight moving it not only pre-
vents the mines from continuing
to operate for lack of coal, but just
at this time when new properties
are being placed in shape to re-
sumo operations and equipment
and supplies are needed for these,
it retards the work greatly.

The long, tedious and tiresome
trial of the People of Idaho VS..
w. D. Haywood, charged with con-
spiracy in the murder of Former
Governor Steunenberg, was finally
ended Sunday morning when the
jury returned verdict in favor of
the defendant of not guilty. The
verdict was surprise to many
and still there were those as usual
who exclaimed, II told you so,
when Haywood was acquitted. To
anyone following the trial closely
and reading particularly the
charge of the judge to the jurors,
the verdict was nothing more than
could be expected. In instructing
the jury the judge was eminently
fair to Haywood, almost to the
extent of favoring him to no.
ticeble degree, and endeavored to
impress upon the minds of the
jurors that they should give the
defendant the benefit of every
doubt. He cited the law of the
state of Idaho in criminal practice
covering conspiracy charge,
which made their duty plain and
the verdict they should arrive at
Enthusiastically one of not guilty.
The Idaho statutes require that
the confession of an accomplice
shall be corroborated by other
testimony, which of itself without
tie aid of the testimony of the ac-
complice, shall tend to connect the
defendant with the commission of
the offense charged. The prose-
cution failed to do this, conse-
quently all that remained for the
jury to do was to acquit the de.
fendant. Orchards testimony
seemed to carry very little weight.
The jurors looked upon him as be-
ing prince of liars and his testi-
mony connecting Haywood with
the murder of Steunenberg was
practically ignored. As every
man who sat upon the jury is re-
garded as a good citiz On of Idaho,
each and every one appearing fair
and impartial and wanting to do
the right thing, the verdict must
be generally accepted as Just and
proper by the people of the coun.
try.

wealth-a man she had selected
for her We presume Maud knew
what she was about when she
married Sherwin and if she is sat

good women as Maud Fealy are
being supported on $1,000 n week
and less and their husbands are
not to be denounced because they
are not making more. We admire
the young lady for selecting some
sensible American for husband
instead of going across the water
and choosing some garlicky old
count. Sherwin is plenty good

NEVADAv|LLE NOTES

The red faction of the Epwortt
League of the M. E. church gave thei,
entertainment last Thursday evening.
The interior was decorated from end tc
end in red and four bells hung from the
ceiling and the one in front was to rep
resent the "bell of victory. All the
songs and recitations were excellent.
From the looks of things it is very hard
for anyone to judge which side will win,
the Reds or the Whites, but no doubt
it will be close race.
James Cannon is able to be up and
around again after an illness of several
days.
VIM. Bolitho and wife returned from
Boulder Tuesday.
VIM. Maddern returned from Boulder
last Thursday.

orial services in body Sunday evening.
The church was decorated in the color
of the emblem and there was large
attendance at the services.
The Merchants were skinned Tuesday
by the Young Sports, the score being "a

Monday where they intend to reside.
The most interesting game of Crick-
ct for years was played last Saturday
and Sunday at the Mountain Daisies
grounds on King flats. The local team
was defeated by score of l26 to s5.
The Denvers made 60 runs in the first
inning and 81 in the second while the
Daisies made 25 in the first
and 60 in the second. On account of
several of the local teams players not
being able to play and substitutes being
put in their places is the reason the local
team did not show up as good as their
opponents. A return game will be
played in Denver some time in Septem-
ber.

Several prominent attorneys of
Denver have given it out as their
opinion that it is against the law
for q county clerk to suppress
marriage licenses. Couples dom
ming the matrimonial yoke want
to bear this in mind and not re-
quest that the license be withheld
from the records. People, and
more particularly the newspapers,
have a right to know when you
are going to get married. You
don't need to assume that it's no.
body's business when you fall a
victim to Cupid's dart. Here is
what one Denver lawyer says
against the suppression of mar
riage licences:
Marriage is the one institution
In America that should be more
public than any other. On this
is based the safety of the home.
Our marriage laws are made for a
purpose and not to be thusly set
aside to suit the whims of some
person."

There is tradition In Lancashire,
