Editor National Tribune: In your
issue of May %. 1907. the first item on
page 5, Washington News" starts off
as follows: 1T is believed that Missouri
has more ex-Governors living than any
other State. There are five of them -
Then follow the names and some char
acteristic or service of each. The item
following begins thus: The foregoing
item has gone the rounds of the news
papers, and it is all right except that Il
isn't so. Missouri falls four short of as
many living ex-Governors as Kansas
her sister. Kansas has nine ex-Gover-
nors.' Then follows the names of the
nine. their achievements and peculiari-
ties. l call attention to the items be-
cause from the prominence given them
one might think the facts they contain
were something unusual and rare This
is not the case, however. except so far
as relates to the characteristics of some
of the persons named. Vermont is not
much given to boasting or seeking
prominence thru the press. but when it
comes to living exGovernors she can
put up IA, just as many as the two
States named combined The list is
headed by the venerable Frederick HoI-
brook. now in his 93d or oath year, who
was Governor from 1861 to 1863 Then

He said that while he was riding
on a train from Weiser to Nampa
he became engaged in conveisa-
tion with Orchard and that Orchard
had told him he was in the employ
OF the mine owners and that
something was going to happen
within thirty days which would
startle the world and that the
Western Federation was going TO
be crushed out. On cross examine
ton he said that he had been con-
fined in the insane asylum at
Blackfoot twice and that he had
been released on the promise Of a
brother and sister-iD-law to take
care of him. ]. M. tO'Neil, editor
of the Miners Magazine, was call
ed TO refute some of the statements
made by Orchard On his CT oss-
examination he admitted <tfrst he
published several articles in the
magazine which were read to him
and that they were approved Of by
the officers Of the Federation. w
+. Davis said that he lived N Gem
at the time of the blowing Up of
the Bunker Hill and Sullivan
mill. He saw the train 90 through
Gem. He denied that he lead the
mob or that he was present when
the mill was blown up. He said
he did not know Orchard at that
time. He said that he had nothing
to do with the trouble there. After
the explosion he left the country
and kept pretty we'll under cover
He changed his name and went to
Butte. He had to change his name
because he had been blacklisted
under the name of Davis. He trav-
eled over the country a good deal
and changed his name several times.
Finally he went to Cripple Creek.
While there he was president of
the local union and was arrested
and put in the military prison.

Orchard had testified to and said
that Orchard had told him in the
+ presence Of Parker, Easterly and
some others that he would have
been rich if he had not been driven
ont of the Cosur d Alenes and that
he held Steunenberg and Sinclair
responsible for his poverty. The
cross-examinstion Of Davis by the
state had not been completed when
court adjourned yesterday. 1t will
be remembered that Davis is the
man whom Orchard said led the
mob which destroyed the Bunker
Hill and Sullivan mill and that
Davis planned the blowing up of
the independence depot. He also
said that Davis had offered to give
him $500 to explode car of powd-
er in the indicator mine.

A WORD TO INVESTORS.

For the past five years Mountain
Home has had a steady growth
not a boom--iust a good, healthy
growth of the kind that counts and
makes villages, towns and cities.
During the past six months, how
ever, we have noticed that both
town and city property has gone
soaring skyward. Real estate, es-
pecially city property, has touched
such immensely high prices that
the most sanguine stop and wonder.
Acreage property that could have
been bought for SIS an acre is now
selling all the way from 500 TO
$500. Corners that went begging
for $4,000 three years ago have now
refused 81, 500 and are asking
SO, 600. Farms that were selling

GILMAN CIAL INSANITY. "

Every once in while phrase
with a jingle pleasing to the Amer
lean car is thrust upon us and inn
mediately becomes a by-word on
every American tongue. We have
had 'frenzied finance, we have
all been driven to s'brain storms, -
we are told that we also suffer
with "dementia Americana, we
have already went bowling ION
she warpath. The latest thing,
however, is Financial insanity"
brother to ''frenized finance, -
closely related to ''unwritten law
a first cousin to ''dementia Amer
icana.
The other day man in Boston,
charged with having criminally
concealed his assets from his trus-
tee in bankruptcy, was given his
liberty on a plea of Financial in
sanity" He had an insane habit of
spending money, later having no
idea where the money went
who ought to be. in asylums! II
there is national sin heavy on our
American shoulders, it is that for
getting through money. There is
hardly an American who could not
get away with plea of 'finan-
scial insanity"
Yes, we Americans have a ter
rible habit OF spending money and
not knowing where it goes. Ask
any American housewife and she
will tell you that such is the case.
Where does the money go-the
money we spend7 Every day the
prices on coal and oil and meat and
milk leap up to higher altitude
Where does the money go9 To the
coal trust, to the oil, meat and milk
trusts. That's where it goes.
Truly, we are all insane, or we
would never stand for such state
of affairs. We will have to find
out where the money goes, and
when we find out we'll be mad.
Suddenly we will wake up, pro-
cure our little tomahawks and take
a jaunt down the "warpath. -
There will be a graet splash into

demented Americans will swoop
down into Wall street and there
will be pulling down of strong
holds and a Strengthening of bulls

many times have YOU asked your

she had kept q rooming house.
That X. c. Sterling rented a room
there and that she saw Orchard
there with him number of times.
Seven anyway perhaps nine. -
Miss Frances King, daughter of
the previous witness, testified that
She had seen Orchard at the room
ing house about three times. Mrs.
Alice Fitzhughes of Fairview, Neb.,
said that she had seen Orcha ard at
the same rooming house at least d
dozen times. c. w. Aller, a rail-
road clerk from Leadville, said
that he had seen Sterling and
That he lad seen Orchard with
Scott three or four times. Ira
Blizzard, a railroad man from
Cripple Creek, vas next called.
He descr ibed the independence de-
pot as a good, up to date depot,
with a wide platform. He went
up there just after the explosion.
Dogs were brought from Victor
and put on the trail They went
off toward the Vindicator mine and
then down the main road to Colo
RADIO Springs. He called up Sterling
by telephone and told him the dogs
were no safe trail. Sterling re-
Piled, ''Call off the dogs We
know who did it. - Later Sterling
told him that he knew who did it.
That it was Steve Adams who blew
up the depot. Scott was called and
testified that he had known Sterl-
ing since the fall of 1908. F. r.
Red, now of Goldfield but at one
time a resident of Cripple Creek,
and Charles A. Sullivan of Denver
we're called and both testified that
when they were alone that the
Idaho governor ough to be killed,
that if some one did not kill him
he would do it himself. That he
would have been rich if it had not
been for Steunenberg. This was
brought out by the defense for the
pur poes of showing that Orchard
had a personal grudge against
Steunenberg.
Four witnesses were examined
for the defense yesterday. They
were w. r. Davis of Goldfield,
Mrs. Lottie Day of Denver, John
D. Elliott residing at the soldiers
home in Boise, and John Nj. O'Neil
of Denver, editor of the Miners
Magazine Mrs. Day was the first
witness called. She lived at the
Belmont rooming house in Denver
in 1904. She met a man by the
name of Dempsey there and identi-
fiede Orchard as that man. She
said that in conversation with
Dempsey he had said that Steuner-
berg was to blame for his poverty
and that he would kill him if he
had to swing for it. On cross
examination she said that she vas
we'll acquainted with Pettibone ;
that Dempsey had introduced her to
Haywood. Also that Dempsey was
well acquainted with Pettibone and
that they spent much time together.
The next witness was John d. Ell
