BOISE, May 2T.-The Steunenberg

Prior TO the issuing Of new yenire, E,
+. Richardson for the defense took ex-
ception to the manner In which the jury
lists were drawn, intimating that an
effort was being made to avoid the
drawing Of working men. He protested
against the talesmen being drawn from
the farmer and mercantile classes rather
than from a body of citizens. Judge
Wood in reply said he had absolute con-
iidence in Sheriff Hodgin and he would
make no suggestion to him as to the
manner in which he made up his lists
Scruples against capital punishment
and prejudice against the acceptance q
circumstantial evidence, rather than an
opinion that gave bias. were the stun
bling blocks Of the talesmen examined
today, Man after man averred he has
prejudice against taking life under any
circumstances and they all successfully
resisted the attempts to show that the

nent sheepmen The plaintiffs are all
members Of the Wenaha Wool Growers
Association. They assert that in order
to take their sheep from Washington to
their herding grounds in the Wenaha
forest reserve, it is necessary to cross
umatilla County, Oregon, where they are
confronted by the authorities who insist
on strict observance Of the state law for
the inspection OF sheep. They further
assert that this law was enacted solely
to prevent them from bringing their
herds into Oregon, and declare the law
unnecessarily harsh and unreasonable.
They contend the aw is unconstitutional
because 1t is in controyension oil the sec

Congress to regulate interstate com.
