MORE OF A SORRY HISTORY.

Yesterday and continuing today,
the defense in the Haywood trial, Is
marshalling an array OF testimony
which attacks the value OF the melo-
dramatic confession which Harry Or
chard has been spinning out In the
Idaho court room. Attorney barrow
In his opening statement to the jury
laid a further charge to
TO the account Of Orchard. Or
chard, according to the attorneys
statement, might have been the flend
That his own confession reveals him,
but he was also monumental liar,
He was undoubtedly hlreling
for the commission OF crime but his
employees were the mine owners and
not the miners. IN accordance with
this statement the defense proceeds
to introduce reliable witnesses who
recall guilty circumstances Of Or
chard's relations with the mine own
ers' detectives. At the same time
the defense is beginning to introduce
witnesses who go to prove that Or
chard could not have been directly
connected with some Of the incidents
detailed with such care in his con-
ession.
That the defense is able to pro-
duce testimony which shows Or.
chard's story in places impossible

Orchards story IS too remarkable tc

which he swears to all OF It leaves

In the council who have been criti-
clsed for not being favorable to CIV
ing franchise to the new appll-
cants, In preference to the old COM
pany on the same terms. We call
attention to this communication, as
we did to that OF Mayor Miller Sat
urday, simply to be fair to all parties
to this controversy
Another communication giving en-
dorsement to the new firm asking a
franchise, also appears in this Is
sue. We want to put before our
readers all the light there is on the
subject, and then leave the matter
with them.
There are some municipal cranks,
like the editor OF the Panhandle,
who are not satisfied with either OF
the franchises; who believe that In
giving franchises for the future in
cities the size OF Amarillo. more
care and time should he taken, and
that every avenue for the future
should be considered, and carefully
guarded, and that good and suf-
flcient bond should be exacted from
the recipient OF the franchise, for a
proper performance of, his duties,
through the entire term of the
franchise, forfeiture OF the bond and
franchise being the penalty for fail
ure.
The time is short, and the fran
chises are before the people, and It
is up to them to vote which shall be
adopted 1t is a Hobson's choice

Confederate Veteran Calls Attention

furnishes the following copy OF an
arrangement for memorial services
which has been used at various as

This simple but impressive and
instructive program OF the Sunday
memorial services Is worthy OF gen

last evening, and gave Amarillo the
long wished for wetting. The storm

The rain continued at intervals all
night and today and at Z O'Clock
