JUST A FAIR TRIAL

A dastardly, brutal murder was com
mitted when Ex-Governor Frank Steun-
enberg was blown to his death bv

and confessions made it possible for
the law to obtain sufficient evidence to
arrest certain men, Socialist papers

selves into frothy frenzy over the sit

their own emancipation" There is

Haywood and Pettibone if they are
innocent; if guilty, we all, not only

Ex-Governor Steunenberg did not blow
himself up, some cowardly assassin or

DEAR COMRADE."

The News is in receipt Of another
letter from Brother Wayland who is
going to get out another big edition to
the Appeal to Treason and asks US to
hustle up few orders for the paper.
It seems that Brother Wayland, because
we once wrote him for copy of the
Jungle" put US down as a tried and
true member Of his flock, and on every
occasion when he needs little financial
assistance he sends US a blank with the
request that "Comrade Orcutt, roll
up his sleeves and hustle few plunks
for the Appeal editor. If our friend
Wayland will please hold his breath
till "Comarde Orcutt' joins the sucker
list and donates some good time for
his benefit it will be long time before
he will need open his mouth and gasp
for more air. Wayland is appealing to
the lowest passions OF his followers, and
in order to keep up his side Of the
case is resorting to the meanest kind
of deception and falsehood. He is.
just plain, every day sort of liar.
He is an anarchist, Halter of every
thing and everybody that happens to
differ with him, and is using the crowd
that are listening to him to fatten him
self. When he has made all the mon
ey he thinks he needs he will sneak
off and forget that the world is going
to the dogs.

NO FLIES ON HIM.

The University Of Idaho has just
put in operation one OF the finest
creameries in the West. Hereafter
the Moscow people can eat home made
creamery butter. It is the intention
to hereafter make a great deal out Of
the agricultural side of the University,
special instruction being given in all
lines pertaining to agriculture. The
new agricultural college building, just
completed, makes it possible for the
carrying on OF these various branches OF
study, and the thing for the farmers Of
this section to do is to send their sons
there with the intention Of giving them
a college education along the lines of
practical farming. Heretofore it has
been considered necessary only for
boys intending to become lawyers or
doctors or preachers or book keepers to
go to college. Nut this has all chang
ed Of late ana it is now recognized as
essential to turn out college bred farm
ers. The farmers should know some
thing besides how to hold a pillow and
when to SOW his crops. He should, if
he is to enjoy his work, know the why
Of farming. He should understand
botany, chemistry and zoology. He
should know all that science and ex-
perience can teach him about the farm.
He ought to have a thorough know
ledge Of live stock, and understand
the scientific side OF business. All this
is possible, and the teaching Of it does
not tend to make fools out of young
men from our farms. Nor does a
college education make the boys from
The farms any less valuable as workers
on the farm. To understand the work,
to have thorough knowledge Of every
detail of the farm from the orchard to
the dairy, adds to the attractiveness of
farm life and will tend to keep the
boys on the farm. The government
has recognized this and is spending
millions annually to carry on this work
for the benefit of the young men who
are sensible enough to go to college
and learn the scientific side of farm
life. In starting to college this fall
the News hopes every boy in this sec
ton will register in the college of ag-
riculture at the University. 1t is the
most interesting and at the same time
the most honorable Of all the profes
sions Of men today. To use the slang
phrase, there are no flies on the fam
er "

and be they the emissaries OF capital
or labor, we want the criminals, and
are going to have them if it is in the
scope of the law to do it. The anar-
chistic utterance of many Of the so
called labor papers so strongly SAVIOR Of
treason that they should be suppressed
and the editors jailed. No one can,
in this instance, howl about the rich
against the poor, for the accused are in
the hands Of the best legal talent that
money can employ; the prisoners are
treated with courtesy and consideration;
the presiding judge, Hon. Fremont
Wood, is an honorable man, an en-
inent lawyer, and as clean a man as
ever sat on the bench. The situation
from every point of view positively
indicates honesty of purpose and fair
play. In this broad, fair land Of ours,
high class citizenship is the watchword,
and dynamite and pure citizenship do
not 60 hand in hand.

There has always been a strong feel
ing against horse meat in this country.
1t is not the case in many European
countries, where horse meat has come
to be an accepted article of diet, large
ly on account of the high price of
meats of all kinds. The French claim
that it is not only allowable, but that
horse meat is desirable and even delic-
ious. French statistics show that 40, 900
horses were eaten in Paris alone last
year. This shows a great increase as
compared with 1899, when less than
half that number were consumed. In
many markets the horse butcher is rec
ognized, and gilded horse heads are
shown above many shops. Doctors
there have been known to recommend
horse flesh for persons with weakened
stomachs. 1t is said that some butch
ers make specially ,of mule meat,
which contains more fatty matter than
horse meat. New Coast Trade.

guards ana vi police reserves were
on duty In order TO prevent the gigan-
nc May day manifestation planned by
the socialists, the city presented al

Troops were massed at the Prince

strategic points, but they we're dis
creetly kept out Of sight.
The authorities while not interfer-
Ing with workmen's meetings are re-
solved to break up the first attempt
at street demonstrations which might
lead TO serious disorders.
II was apparent early in the morn
ing that the mass of the people had
not much sympathy with the agita-
tors The appeals Of M. Jaures and
other socialist leaders for complete
suspension of work not only In Paris
but throughout France, were generally
unheeded.
All the stores and restaurants were
open, and the omnlbuses and horse
car lines and electric roads were run
ming as usual. Nevertheless an i'm
mense number of idle workmen were
in the streets wearing red emblems
in their buttonholes.
Before 3 o'clock they began con-
centratIng at the Labor Exchange
near the Place De La Republiaue,
where the most important meetings
were scheduled TO take place. The
police, however, kept the crowds on
the move, arresting scores Of loiter-
ers. BY noon 200 arrests had been
made, among those taken into ousto-
dy being a soldier in citizens clothes
who was selling anarchistic papers.
On many persons arrested the po-
lice found knives. brass knucks and
