Los Angeles. Cal. July 1.-THE Ma
tional Education association concluded
its labors today with the adoption of
a series of resolutions. the principal
among which was one upon the sub
ject of the strained relations between
capital and labor in this country. rec
ognizing the seriousness of the con-
dition. and recommending that the
teachers of America at once enter up
on a course of instruction for the
purpose OF intoxicating a stronger
sense of patriotism, morality, the
rights and duties of citizenship. and
the security and sacredness of human
life
The second in Importance was a res
olution upon the subject of simplified
spelling. endorsing the work of the
simplified spelling board. and direct
ing the secretary of the association 10

500 selected words. in the publications
of the association. This resolution.
which is in direct contradiction to the
act of the board OF directors yester-
day in declaring against the use of

only after a vigorous debate and
strongly expressed opposition. 1t was
carried bv a vote of 209 to %. al
though IT is claimed that many other
than active members voted in the az
firmative.
The resolutions endorsed the efforts
made to increase the salaries of teach
ers favored the harmoniZing of child
labor and truancy laws. and impressed
upon educators that the building of
character is the real aim of the
real aim of the schools; deplored the
tendency among children toward
disregard for constituted authority and
lack of respect for age and superior
wisdom; urged the abolishment OF Sc
cret societies, fraternaties and soror-
tiles in the schools, and denounced
them as inimical to the interests OF
schools and pupils. The resolutions
declared for the merit system for the
promotion of teachers as against po-
litical intrigue; they strongly favor
world peace and international arbitra
ton. Lastly the convention thanked
the press and particularly the Asso-
ciated Press for their courtesy.

Morris murder case was enacted here
this morning, when Sheriff Anderson
swung William Baldwin the condemned

the scaffold bravely and the trap was

in sixteen minutes. There was no pub

Morris and her little daughter were

original statement. Sheriffs Thomp-

Much of Haywoods testimony today
was a repetition in detail of what
Moyer said yesterday. Haywood how
ever, made no effort to deny his
knowledge of orchard and his affairs
or his connection with Simpkins. He
was pressed closely as to the passage
of the telegram relating to the engage
ment of counsel to defend orchard. and
i'm this connection he admitted that he
knew Simpkins had retained counsel,
but there was no report from Simp-
kins to the federation on the subject.
Like Mover, Haywood never heard
Orchard make threats against Steun-
enberg. although he heard of Orchards
claim that he lost his interest in the
Hercules mine because of the troubles
in the Occur d'Alenes.
Haywood explained that the draft
sent to Simpkins for 800 on Decem-
her 81. 1905. on the ground that Simp-
kins left the money with him for safe
keeping. He has had no acknowI-
edgment of the receipt of the money
and has not heard from Simpkins
since. Haywood said he never told
Pettibone that he sent money to
Simpkins.
In his opening speech Mr. Darrow
said that it was doubtful if the defense
would attempt to explain the copy OF
the letter received by Orchard while
he was in Jail in Caldwell. in which
--he said that lit was sent on Decem-
Der 2l." In his testimony Orchard
said the letter was in reply to one from
him to Pettibone asking for s1O0.
Haywood in many particulars con-
firmed Orchard, but where Orchard
connected Haywood or the federation
with the crime the witness very EN-
phatically denied ii. He showed no
hesitation or desire to conceal the fact
that Orchard visited him at his home
on different occasions. or that he had
had conversations with Orchard. He
denounced the administration of Col
! orado at the time Of the troubles as
corrupt and he extolled the value of
the federation. Throughout Haywood's 5
testimony the note of antagonism TO
what he calls the capitalistic class and
confidence that only by such meth
DDS as those followed by the federation
can workingmen hope to control the
situation.
