or wrong the responsibility is very
generally placed upon the shoulders
of Judge Wood. One local lawyer OF
reputation in no way connected with
the prosecution, puts 1t this way: 1T
was not 80 much what the instructions
said, as the number OF times they
said It. Thirty-one Of the sixty-flve
instructions dealt with the subject Of
reasonable doubt"
The camp of the prosecution is fair
ly boiling tonight. No one imputes
to Judge Wood anything but absolute
honesty, but II is freely declared that
in his desire to stand perfectly erect
he leaned over backwards.
At the time, though Haywood is
free, 1t is Scotch verdict. One OF
the courts instructions said that an
acquittal meant nothing more than
that the defendants guilt was not es-
tablished beyond a reasonable doubt,
and the predicting that no matter
which way the fury went nobodys
views regarding Haywoods guilt
would be altered, is being amply borne
out tonight.
1t is not known exactly how the
prosecution OF Pettibone will be con-
Quoted. Lawyer Hawley, the veteran
senior prosecutor, Is leaving Boise
tonight to take voyage to Honolulu.
His health is for the time being
broken and It may be that he. would
be unable to continue the prosecution.
In the startled confusion that fol-
lowed Haywood's acquittal Judge
Wood made some announcement
about Meyer and Pettibone. What It
was nobody that was present could re-
member. Nobody cared at the time.
As a matter of fact counsel for Petit
bone and Meyer will ask that their
clients be admitted to bail. The
state will resist the application. Prob
ably Meyer will be bailed out, but
Pettibone will in all probability con-
tinue to remain In Jail.
RICHARDSON TALKS.
Before he left the courtroom, Law
yer Richardson dictated his views on
the result. He said,
I've had fair trial, ana have had
an impartial and conscientious Jury.
We have had an impartial Judge. We
have had the most vigorous and effec-
tive counsel opposed to us that It has
ever been my fortune to meet. and
while they have given us a most Wig
orous trial they have at all times
been fair and courteous. The Defend
ant has no complaint to make, nor has
his counsel. Idaho has covered her

state. Powell especially was supposed
to haye leaning for the defense.
Burns, too, is the only man on the
jury who ever belonged to labor un-
lon. Sentiments expressed by other
Jurors lead TO the conclusion that the
Jurors merely believed that Haywood
might be guilty, but that 1t had not
been proven.
One of them said that this passage
in the judges charge was what fixed
him: "If II is possible to reconcile the
facts upon any reasonable theory con-
sistent with this defendants inno-
cence, It Is your duty to do so, and
acquit him" Another passage from
the instructions which is supposed to
have had great weight is this one:
'The Jury IL instructed that when
the proof Of conspiracy is circum-
stantial, the defendants connection
with 1t must be established by evi-
,dence OF his own acts and declara-
tions, not those of others"
WILL TRY OTHERS.
The prison bars are no wider today
for Pettibone than they were yester-
day. The state will not abandon Its
fight because II has been knocked to
Its knees in the first round.
AS soon as Senator Borah, Lawyer
Hawley and Governor Gooding had a
conference, Senator Borah made this
statement:
$50 far as Haywood is concerned,
twelve good citizens of Idaho have
acquitted him, and that settles It.
haven't any further comment to make
on that branch of the subject. But
the cases against Pettibone and Moyer
will be pressed. II Is probable that
Pettibone will be put on trial about
October 1, In this county or some
other"
"The verdict Is q great surprise to
me-" said Governor Gooding, "and

taken, and my conscience is clear. AS

cution OF Meyer and Pettibone, and

That this IA putting mildly the sem
timents Of the governor OF idaho n

everybody else in the city Of Boise.
that the most the defendant could
hope for was a disagreement. The
result was stunning. II is safe TO say
that no result was ever reached in n
big murder trial that so astounded
nine-tenths Of all the persons en-
gagged in the trial. Before the time
the courts instructions were pro-
nounced II was an open secret that
the defense was extremely blue. Ru-
mors came flying thick and fast that
Darrow and Richardson had quar-
relied. each OF them being displeased
with the manner In which the other
had conducted his share OF the case.

masterful and brilliant speech on FRI

There never was any case against

DARRoW'S STATEMENT.
Lawyer Clarence s. Darrow, of Chi
cago, had this to say about the acquit-
tai of his client: "The result of tho
| Haywood trial is a triumph for the
cause OF labor and proof of the in-
herent justice Of the American people.
Mr.. Haywood was brought from the
, city Of Denver, 1900 miles, into com.
munity which was alien and hostile.
One ex-governor had been murdered
in the most cowardly way. AS was to
be expected, the community was
ablaze with indignation at his murder
ers. For year and half the local
papers had been busily teaching the
public that Haywood was guilty. In
drawing the Jury all members Of labor
unions and all wage earners were
carefully excluded. A very large num-
ber Of bankers, some leading mer-
chants and large number OF farmers
were the only Jurors from which the
defendant could choose. The jury was
made up mainly Of small farmers.
Most of these had some acquaintance
with Ex-Governor Steunenberg, many
had voted for him, some had done bus
mess with him and one at least had
been a part of his household for two
years. Practically all of them had
some opinion as to Haywood's guilt
at the time they we're sworn In. and
this opinion was unfavorable to Hay.
wood. II looked like an impossible
task to secure an acquittal under these
circumstances. II must be said, how
ever, that the community Of Idaho II
as broadmnded community as could
be found on the face Of the earth. The
prejudice was such as would have
existed In any community, and the
attorneys for the prosecution were
eminently fair In the conduct Of the
case. The Instructions OF the judge

o. Il. Sebern, the lanky rancher,
who had been supposed from the FIRST
to be favorably disposed to the prose-
cution, appears to have been one of
the strongest fighters for Haywood

they finally agreed to let Haywood 90

how many ballots had been taken

HAYWOOD DAzED.
AS the jurors rose, Haywood seemed
still little dazed but at whispered
word from Mr.. Darrow he stepped for
ward and shook the hand Of each man
as he left the box and thanked him for
his verdict. Tears we're rolling down
his face by this time, but he retained
his self control, and as he spoke his
voice was unbroken. After the last

Vie In Doing Damage To Young
Tobacco Plants in the COun.
ty. Farmers Say.

Bugs and frost have played havoc
with the tobacco plants throughout the
county, and in many instances farmers
are blowing up the beds and replanting.
Some farmers claim that the biggest
damage has resulted from small insects
killing the tender plants. The cold,
dry weather is responsible for the i'm,
jury from the insects, the planters say.
Other farmers are of the opinion that
the killing frosts have done the most
damage to the plants.
While the opinion is general among
the tobacco growers that the recent
freak of weather has worked hardships
/, and loss upon them, they vary in esti.
mating the extent of the injury. Some
of them say the loss is only trivial and
will let their plant beds stand for what
they are worth.
