JURY MUST DECIDE
Haywood's Attorneys Asked Judge
Woods to Direct That the
Prisoner Be Acquitted
THE STATE CLOSES ITS CASE
The Defense Will Make Its Opening
Statement Monday Morning and
Begin the Presentation of
Testimony.

Boise, Idaho, June 20.-The state
Wednesday mode dramatic production
and proof of the Goddard bomb and
offering further contributions of the
testimony of Harry Orchard against
William D. Haywood, secured a rul-
ing under which number of the de-
mandatory articles published in the
Miners Magazine, official organ of
the Western Federation Of Miners,
will be admitted in evidence.
To Justice Luther NJ Goddard him
self fell the task of telling the story
of the finding and preservation for
use as evidence of the bomb with
which Orchard tried to kill him. His
appearance on the stand added an.
other to the many dramatic scenes
and situation that have characterized
the trial, and his testimony was clear
and minutely circumstantial. The
veteran Colorado jurist testified that
the first information that he received
about the bomb came to him from Or
chards confession, which was shown
to him at Denver on February Is,
1906, by Detective Mcfarland. He at
once returned to his home and in his
gate discovered the screw-eye which
Orchard said he placed there. 1t was
rusted and corroded by ten months
exposure The witness said he ex-
amined the ground outside the gate
where Orchard said he placed the
bomb and found a slight depression
with the soil packed very hard around
it.
The bomb was dug up the next day
by General Bulkeley Wells while u.s.
ing a pocket knife to cut away the
soil, and raised the pine box contain
ing the bomb. There was a small
phial on top of the box and attached
to the rubber cork of the phial was
a piece of rusted wire.
The bomb and its attachments were
at once taken to the office of the
Pinkerton detective agency and care
fully sealed In wrappers and envelopes
that were signed by half dozen wit
nesses including Justice Goddard, and
after that they were placed in vault
to the door of which five seals includ-
ing that of notary public were at
taShed. There they rested until the
following May 22nd when believeing
the Haywood case was to come to
trial they were removed in the pres
ence of the same witnesses and all
save three of the forty sticks of giant
powder contained in the bomb were
exploded. The explosions occurred in
the presence of the witness at point
in the suburbs of Denver and of the
bomb itself IL giant caps and two
wrappers torn from sticks of giant
powder were saved as evidence.

Boise, Id, June 2.-When the state
Friday closed its case against William
D. Haywood, charged with the murder
of Frank Steunenberg, the defense
made an unsuccessful attempt to Sc
cure from the court an order directing
the jury to acquit the prisoner. Judge
Woods ruling which requires the de.
tense to meet with evidence the case
that the state has presented, was made
at Sis o'clock and it was then ar
ranged that Haywood's counsel should
make their opening statement and
present their first testimony on Mon
day next.
Attorney E. R. Richardson made the
principal argument in support of the
motion in a long, carefully prepared
and eloquent argument.
He took for his guide the Idaho stat
ute which forbids conviction upon the
uncorroborated testimony of an accom-
plice and quoting many authorities in
support of his contention that there
must be convincing confederation en-
tirely independent OF the testimony Of
the accomplice and made an analysis
of all the testimony offered. He de-
clared that none of the testimony
could stand without the support of
Orchards story, and that the statute
specifically forbade its acceptance I'M
der those circumstances.
He also argued that the testimony
of Orchard was the only showing that
in any way connected Haywood with
the crime and that the statute forbade
conviction under those circumstances.
Senator Borah, who alone spoke for
the state, argued with like force and
eloquence, that Heywoods connection
has been Independently shown and
that Orchards testimony has been
corroborated by independent circum-
stances and evidence. He also sub
mitteu a general argument to show
that the state had established the ex-
istence of general conspiracy in
which Haywood was a participant, and
in which he strongly developed the
alleged connection of Pettibone and
Simpkins.
Clarence barrow, who closed, plead
ed that there was not shred of evil
dence in the case capable of standing
without the rotton thread of Or.
chard's story to sustain it and that
the plain provision of the Idaho stat
ute made the duty of the court clear,

To the Honorable City Council, City
of Marshalltown, Iowa.
Gentlemen: l hereby return to your
honorable body the resolution tax levy
at your meeting held August II, 1907,
unsigned by me.
1t is my desire at all times to re-
duce the taxation of the people to
the least possible amount consistent
always with good business principles
and with proper conduct of ALI city
affairs
Tn looking over your resolution tax
levy it occurred to me that the m'il
on the dollar for, water sinking fund to
nav bonded indebtedness was tax
that was uselessly levied upon the
public. In the past and for several
wears I find it has been the custom OF
the city council to levy this ] mill
on the dollar for water sinking fund
to pay bonded Indebtedness. ! also
observe that none of this money mas
ever been expended toward paying the
bonds. but has been used for the pur-
pose of paying the interest upon the
bonded indebtedness of the water
works department. This, I am con-
WINGED, is entirely unconstitutional and
wrong, and should this l mill on the
dollar be allowed to remain upon the
tax levy I should insist that the re-
turns from that levy should be applied
upon the bonded Indebtedness of the
water works Department. and not for
the purpose of paying the interest upon
that bonded indebtedness.
1t would seem to me to be very un-
businesslike to levy a tax upon the
people for period Of four years. as
this tax Of mill on the dollar would
run before any of the bonds of the
water works department would be OPP
tional or payable.
Under the present law the city could
not receive interest from this levy, but
the city treasurer who would hold it
until the first water works department
bond would fall due or become OPP
tional. which would not be until 1911.
1t would seem to me that the BUSH
ness way to pay off the bonded indebt-
edness Of the water works department
would be if it is the thought of the
city council to do So to lay aside a.
portion or part of the revenue collected
each year by this department., until
such an amount had been saved as

Mayor, Ingledue's Veto Message
1p.Iiv.red to City ouno, Aug. %, 1907

would pay the bonded Indebtedness
Of the water works system.
In connection with this permit me to
say~that believe, the city council
should give more attention in allow
sufficient revenue is returned to pay
the city for the extension of the main.
If the city council would strictly adj
| here to the rule, that every extension
of it's service should return a revenue
of not less than per cent upon their
investment, the city could afford to
extend it's water mains to almost any
point in the city.
The fact that the water works bonds
are drawing but and AZ per cent in
terest, you can readily see that it
would be immaterial to the city wheth
er or not these bonds were paid, if it
was necessary to. expend the money
for the purpose of extending water
mains on a basis of per cent return.
If the water works department
would receive return of per cent
from every extension, the city could
well afford to place it's water works
bonds upon or AZ per cent basis
to be paid at any time.
The city could by the stopping Of
the extension of water mains for the
period of two or five years, wipe out
entirely the bonded Indebtedness of the
water works department from the rev.
enues of the water sold.
I would therefore suggest as better
plan, if it is your thought to pay off
the bonded indebtedness of the water
works, that at the time these brnsis
become optional the city should take
the revenue derived from the sale OF
it's water and apply it for such a
period of time as would be necessary
to wipe out it's bonded Indebtedness,
or such an amount or sum of the rev.
enue as the city could spare and still
maintain it's service. This would avoid
the piling up of money received by
taxing the people and held by the city
treasurer until such a time as the
bonds could be paid.
I trust, gentlemen Of the city coun-
Gil. that I have made my ideas clear
to you and my reasons for veotfng
this resolution. 1t is always with re-
greet that / veto a resolution, but we
cannot think out and see the future of
such propositions upon the spur of the
moment, and time always is the best
method for solving problems that re-
quire thought.
Yours truly,
o. L. INGLEDUE,
Mayor.

INDIVIDUALITY

BUYERS Becoming More and More De-
sirous Of Getting tho Genuine in
Their Purchases-Never More True
Than in China.
Most of us have come to appreciate
things for what they are. The article
that is genuine appeals to us forcibly.
No matter how small and inexpensive
thing may be, we like it to be genu-
inc and all that it appears to be. This
individuality is nowhere better exem-
plified than in our big stock Of china,
cut glass, Jap ware, etc. In buying
1t we had the taste of the buying public
in view, and believe we have sue
ceeded admirably, as you will I'M
doubtedly agree il you inspect our
stock.
What we have said above Is espec-
tally true of presents, and we believe
that it was never so true as in our
store. We have an unusual assort-
ment of classy" substantial, genu-
inely good china and cut glass, every
piece specially selected for its quality
of ware and beauty of design and dec
grafton Hand painted china, sets and
individual pieces of all kinds, cut
glass, electroliers, gas lamps, jardin-
ieres, Jap ware. Not all high priced,
but all high class and genuinely good.
We want you to see them. And if you
have presents to buy we can make 1t
easy for you to select at any sum YOU
may wish to spend.
