The bill that is intended to make North
ampton borough was not introduced in
the Legislature last week, owing to the
fact that it is the rule to have referen-
dunn clause to all such laws The bill was
returned to the person who drew it and
the clause will be inserted When the
bill is introduced it will contain proviso
that the people of Northampton shall vote
on the question of becoming borough or
remaining a township. If the bill passes
both houses it will take a vote of the
people before the law becomes operative.
There is little argument in favor of city
government except that the name sounds
better, but as it is government we are after
and not name, that argument will not
cut much figure. Thomas w. Nippins,
member of the township committee, is
quite active in circulating a petition TO
have the place made city. The real in
tent of this move is to create division to
such an extent that the township govern
ment will not be disturbed and the men,
bers of the committee will be retained at
So per day, when in service. The bill
which is to be introduced, however, will
not allow of any discussion on the city
line; it will be borough or township.
An objection that has been advanced
against incorporating as borough is that
that form of municipal government never
is found except in places of small and
contemplate population, and never in
place as large as Mount Holly This
statement is not correct. There are many
boroughs with populations above that of
this township. In the list may be found
in Bergen county. Garfield, with a popu
lation of 5000, and Rutherford, 5,219;
Princeton, Mercer county, 6,029; South
Amboy, Middlesex county, 6,25S; North
Plainfield, Somerset county, 1916 There
are many boroughs with populations rang
ing from 5000 to 5000 Northampton
population is $500.
What is desired in the new move is as
good if not better government than at
present, at less cost. The fact that some
fellow wants to keep on in the old way
merely for the per diem will not have
much weight with people who are willing
to advance in ideas.

HOW ORCHARD
CAME To COMES

while I don't take much stock in
deathbed repentances," said ]. H. Haw-
ley, senior counsel for the State Of
Idaho in the prosecution of William
Haywood, Harry Orchards repentance
seems genuine and lasting. Whatever
the motives that led him to confess. ]
believe firmly that he has told the
truth. What he has told has been cor
roborated in such a multitude Of ways,
and by such a multitude of little
things-the kind of things that test
truth because impossible that they
could be invented-that ii does not
seem possible that 1t could fail to con-
vince a reasonable man of the truth Of
what he says. He has a most wonder
full memory, and great powers of close
observation. I never knew a man who
could relate a series of experiences
covering a number of years and widely
separated in territory, and involving
so many other men, SO accurately. Not
that he is not mistaken at times in
dates, and things of that sort, but his
memory of events and the sequence OF
events Is marvellous. He was under
cross-examination and he was not
shaken in a single portion of his evil
dence. In fact, cross-examination only
made it stronger.
LAS to how he came to confess, 1t
is a hard thing to determine motives.
He seems, however. to have been in
fiuenced by conviction of the fact
that there was nothing more for him
in this world, and that he ought to
do what he could to right the wrongs
he had done.
He had been under arrest for some
time, when MCFARLAND, the man who
broke up the Molly Maguires of Penn
sylvania, the head of the Pinkerton
agency in the West, and I think the
shrewdest man I ever knew. told the
Governor and myself that he believed
Orchard could be brought to confess.
Orchard was taken from the jail to
the penitentiary. There are two cells
there separate from all the rest. They
are really death cells. A man await
ing execution was in one of them. with
death watch over him. Orchard was
put in the other cell and death watch
placed On him. Night and day there
was always a guard at the cell looking
In, and with instructions not TO talk to
Orchard. not to reply to anything he
said. There was always a light there.
SO that everything In the cell could
be seen. He could not get out of the
sight of pair OF eyes. He had no ona
to talk to. The warden came up once
a day and inquired IL there was any
thing especial he wanted to eat. He
was well fed. But he was always
under relentless and silent watch. At
the end Of about six days OF this, he

was on the verge of nervous prostra-
ton. Then Mcfarland came up ona
day and tried to engage him in con-
versation. Much as Orchard wanted
to talk TO some one, he wouldn't talk
to Mcfarland, more than to say thar
he supposed he was some cheap detec-
tive who was trying to get something
on him. MCFARLAND did not stay long.
The next day he came again. Orchard
still would not talk much to him, much
as he wanted to talk to some one.

that he was mere tool being used by
others. and that he ought to square
himself by telling him all he knew.
Mcfarland talked with him about re-
ligion.
1.-The next day MCFARLAND told Or
chard who he was. Orchard said he
had heard of him and had always heard
he was square Orchard, however,
said. How do 1 know you are McPar-
land, and not some cheap detective
they have sent here?' MCFARLAND said
he did not know how he could satisfy
him of his identity. Suddenly Orchard,
noticing that Mcfarland wore an Elks'
badge, said that if he were an Elk he
would carry a card of Identification.
MCFARLAND said yes, that was so, and
at once produced his card, and Orchard
said he was satisfied. He said that he
would talk the next day If Mcfarland
would have the guard taken away. On
consultation with the Governor this
was done. and Orchard had the first
good nights sleep that he had had
since ne was put In the cell.
The next day MCFARLAND came
again, and the confession began. It
extended over days. We verified 1t as
we went along where we could. At
first we had doubts of 1t. But the in
ternal proof of it kept increasing. or
course, he told US a great deal that
did not come out in evidence, that was
not admissible as evidence, because

right on cross-examination to ask him

him they would. He said, That hurts

How was the connection of Hay
wood with the murder OF Steunenberg

by a thousand trivialities," re-
piled Mr.. Hawley. There was no one
circumstance or set OF circumstances
that stood out from the rest that es-
tablished it. But there were multi
tude of incidents and facts that to-
gether made it as certain as anythins
human can be that he was a party TO
the murder.
THE verdict was a surprise to every
one. The defense only hoped for

isfied with a verdict of guilty in thu
