LETTER FROM PRISONERS
Steunenberg Murder Suspects

Steunenberg Murder Suspects
Issue Public Statement.
Meyer, Haywood and Pettibone
have issued the following statement
to the press of the country:
STATEMENT OF PRISONERS.
ave have been charged with
killing Ex-Governor Steunenberg
with dynamite bomb. Our trial
is to begin on the ninth of this
month. The details of the assas-
sination have been published broad
cast throughout the civilized world
for more than year. During all
this time the press of the country,
and especially in that section of
Idaho where we will be placed on
trial, has bitterly denounced us
and the Western Federation of
Miners, to which we belong. The
most powerful interests of the
country are seeking our lives. We
were not in Idaho for years before
the crime was committed. Under
the law we could not be extradited
from Colorado, but in spite of this
we were arrested on a perjured
affidavit, charging that we were in
Idaho at the time of the commits
sion of the crime and that we i'm
mediately fled from the state, and
on this perjured affidavit, known
to be false, the governors of the
two states of Idaho and Colorado
kidnapped us in the night time
refusing us an interview with
family, friends or counsel, or d
chance of appeal to the courts, and
brought us on a special train a
thousand miles from home and into
state and community systemati.

MUNICIPAL IMPROVEMENT

One OF the matters OF importance
that might be suggested to the new
city council is that Of providing
more electric lights in the residence
districts OF the city. Aside from
the arc lights on Main street there
are but very few lights at other
places in the city that are not main
tained by private contributions.
A few of the citizens living on the
principal streets have installed
lights on their porches and from
these is obtained most Of the
light provided in the residence
districts. Lights are needed very
badly on most Of the streets run
ming north and south and sugges-
gestions for the remedying of this
condition should not be out of the
way. A we'll lighted city is one OF
the best improvements we can ac-
complish.
Another matter that demands
the attention of those interested is
the provision of more sidewalks
running east and west in almost
every part of the town. 1t is a
noticeable fact that very few side.
walks can be found extending from
Meadow to Hall street, or from
Hall to State, and so on. Persons

eyes,
Brought pictures for my wisdom to
make plain,
And slowly voiced his need in childish
Asking the meaning he had sought in
vain.
And some, by symbol, and by holy sign,
could translate, and set his face
aglow;
But there were others I could not de-
knew the meanings, but he could not
know.
My little son fares forth to realms Of
sleep,
While sometimes unto the depths of
night
See pictures Of Gods children sinking
deep
Beyond mems love-beyond their Faith

But still hope that where my faltering
mind
Is filled with pity and with dull de-
spair,
God reads the meaning with a purpose
kind,
And does not cease to know, and love,
and care.
