to Boise to testify on this subject
 Darrow admitted that the letter written by Pettbone to Orchard and received by Orchard after his arrest, in which Petit bone said that $1O0 had been sent to Simp- klns by Haywood was a suspicious cir constance but not discriminating. If any event, he said outside of Orchard there was no direct evidence to show that Petit bone sent the letter.
 The letter from Haywood to Mrs. Orchard and the sending of money by Pettibone to Orchard in San Francisco. he said, was a perfectly legitimate transaction. This ey idence, he said. like all the other evidence brought by the state, failed utterly to incriminate his client.
 The Peroratlon.
 At five minutes after 4 o'clock, after having spoken altogether for nearly eleven hours Darrow reached the peroration

 Plea for Labor.
 But 1t is not for Bill Haywood I plead,' he cried. "It Is not for his widow or his orphans. If he died. ten thousand men who work in the mines will send their mite to support the widow and the little ones and a million people will send their messages of sympathy. I don't plead for Haywood. Don't think for moment that if you kill Haywood you will kill the labor movement of the world or the hopes and aspirations of the poor. Hay wood can die if die he must. but there are others who will live if he dies, and they will come to take his place and carry the banner which he let's fall. l plead for the poor and the weak and the weary The eyes of the world are on youstwelVe men of Idaho tonight. and wherever the English tongue is spoken and throughout the civilized world, they are wondering about your verdict If you decree his death the spiders and the vultures of Wall street will send up peons of praise and wherever men live who hate Hay wood, because he works for the poor, you will receive your mode of praise.
 But if you acquit this man, there are millions of men, out on the broad prairie, on the wide ocean in the factories and the mills, and down deep in the earth {; there are women and children who will pray for you. The men and women and children stand here with me tonight, stretching out their hands and imploring God to guide your Judgment and imploiing you to save Haywood"
 MT. Darrow raised up and as he walked to his table, plainly showed his emotion, and many women were in tears
 Court immediately adjourned until : D. m.
 Senator Borah began his address to the jury shortly after D. m. He said he appreciated that the jurors were tatigued from their long ordeal and he promised he would De as brief as possible under the circumstances. Much of his speech. he declared, would be an answer to the argu- ment of the opposition counsel.
 'I am aware" said Borah that l am in this case as special prosecutor. The learned counsel on the other side has im- pressed this fact upon you, but let mo say that the state which does not protect It's citizens or punish wrong-doers would soon lose the respect of it's people anu have no standing in our constitution.
 But counsel has gone further with my associates. Why they should attack MT.
  yestigaton of thls matter; why they should assail in personal way a man who mas practiced law in this community for 40 years and whose loyalty, whose hon esty has never been questioned. l do not know. It is usually thought sufficient to attack mans argument; to do away with his logic. but running through this case, is an attack upon every one be ne igh or low, who has had anything to do with or been in any way associated with he investigation of the crime of Decem- 1T 20, 1905.'
