The Jury Sustained.

A positive rebuke to politicians and newspapers
that assaed the conservative sentiment of Idaho in
connection with the Haywood trial has been voiced
by Judge w. H. Seaman of the federal court of ap-
peals at Chicago. In an address before the gradu-
atlng class of Chicago law college, the Judge used
the Haywood case as enlightening example of
the integrity of the jury SYSTEM saying:
When the Haywood case was tried the whole
country was afame with popular c1amor The peo-
pie and high officials demanded Haywood's punish
ment and demanded it with such force no jury could
have tailed to hear. The verdict rendered. in the
face OF public passion and demand was absolutely
just. And 1t was remarkable vndication of the
jury system III America. Whether or not the defend
ant was guilty will never be absolutely known but

This Judicial justification of the Boise iurv will
come as scrap of comfort to the members of that
jury, and it may be qualification to Judge Seaman
that they took the precise view of the case that he
put III form of words for the edfcation of the law
class
Members of the jury have said, since the close of
the trial. that the guilt of Haywood was not proved

law, they could not declare that he was eni1tv

The enthusiasm of the people of the Mormon
counties in behalf of the of the constitutional
democracy of the state something the like of
which had never been experienced by most of the
delegates to Twin Falls convention 1t belonged to
the period of Fremont and Lincoln when the popu-
lace emerging from its apathy and grding itself
for the onslaught upon slavery, which the first re-
publican convention declared to be the twin evil of
poygamy
History has impressed upon the world convic-
ton of the earnestness of the marching banner
bearing men of 1856 and 1861. So much in earnest
were they that nearly three million of them took
guns in their hands in support of their contentious
and destroyed the twin of the nquity against which
local public sentiment is strongly arrayng
itself
In the midst of environment that so effectively
accumulated the demand of the hour the represent
ative men of a section yet uncontaminated by the
presence of poygamy could not but learn and learn
quickly that they had been mised by the pretenses
of band of political adventures who will never be
able to convince the public that their motive was a
diSinterested one.
he representatives of the counties of northern
Idaho went away from Twin Falls with the con-
Vlct1on that the conflict against poygamy and church
control of government represented living issue and

Unsustained Claims.

1t is possible that the reading public has become
somewhat bewdered over the appropriation of the
results of the Twin Falls democratic convention
by the Boise edition of the Deseret News in behalf
Of its Jack-Mormon constituents But the public
easily adjust its understanding to the circum-
stances by keeping in mind the long established fact
that the aforesaid newspaper places itself on
the side OF truth in connection with the political
affairs of Idaho
The official proceedings of the Twin Falls conven-
ton given in this issue of The Sc1nitar and as
they there recited so will they stand in the court
of final resort-the national convention
1t is unquestonable fact that the faction rep
resented by the paper that deals largely in fiction
withdrew from the Twin Falls convention and ended
its supposed companionship with the democratic par
ty of Idaho by conducting a rump convention and
selecting number of its members to represent a
contestlng delegation that will hardly have the tenn
Gritty to present its claim at Denver.
The managers of the rump convention and their
mouthpiece have fortified themselves behind the fc-
ton that majority of the convention delegates
went with the seceders. But the public politically
wise, understands that a majority never bolts 1t
is a minority, defeated minority always that
adopts revolutionary tactics.
At the height Of its strength the Mormon fac
ton lacked eighteen votes Of enough to carry the con-
NCHOH dllu nom THAT point III the proceedings
support melted away until it was largely outcassed
1t took advantage of its first opportunity to break
away and the opportunity came and was accepted
when the Mormon candidate for temporary chairman
was defeated, the faction knowing that it could not

of the that would have been inevitable had the
revolutloniss endeavored to sustain their cause in
way
The delegates from the north were not strongly
allied to the the bunch of Boise attorneys had
been secured to promote having been drawn into the
by Misrepresentation.
By the time they had travelled into the denselv
Normonized portion of the state and found them

ALLEGED BDUCTOR
SAVED BY STORM
FROM M0BS FURY
Thunder Shower Hats Attempt
to Lynch Revivalist Who Ran
Away with Little Girl.
Especial to the Evening star.l

GLASBORO. July 20.-A heavy
thunder shower probably prevented the
lynching of Charles Hemphill, 81 years
old, alleged abductor of Cora Belle
Carton, Z years old. yesterday. -Four
hundred persons followed the prisoner
from Pitman, where he was arrested,
and were Joined by many local people.
Just as matters appeared to be assum-
ing q serious phase the storm broke
and the would-be lynchers sought
shelter.
Hemphill was taken to the county
jail at Woodbury. during the absence of
the crowd, where he made a confession.
and is held under $4,000 bail on a
charge of attempted assault.
Hemphill. who is also known as
Charles Schreve. met the girl at a
Holiness" camp meeting. where he
was an ardent revivalist, On Friday
afternoon the young man procured a
horse n carriage and persuaded Cora
Carton and a girl companion, Helen
Higgins. to have a ride. Half an hour
later the Higgins girl came running
back to camp to say that Hemphill
had slapped her face and put her out
of the carriage. 3.
The camp worshipers then started
after the man. Telephone and tele-
graph messages were sent to all near
by towns. and the coming of the al
legged abductor was awaited every
where by a mob.

SPARK FROM HER
SHOE SETS FIRE
THAT KILLS BRIDE
Jersey City Woman Fatally
Burned Carrying Dinner to
Husband in Powder Plant.

JERSEY CITY, July pa spark
from a nail in the heel of her shoe, it
is thought, was the cause of an explo-
sion of fireworks in the Fertile powder
plant, foot of Williams avenue, Jersey
City, yesterday moo which resulted
in the death of Josephine Fabo, 20 years
old, of 1877 Williams avenue, who was
in the plant with her husbands dinner.
About twenty men were busy at the
plant at noon when Michael Fabo an
nounced that 1t was nearly time for his
wife to arrive with his dinner, and as
lie spoke the six months bride came
into the little enclosure.
AS she spied Fabo she started across
the powder covered wood flooring to
get her reward-a kiss. She was not
halfway across the room, however,
when of the men cried out a warm
nail in the young wife's shoe. Hard
~ had he spoken when a binding fash
came.
The rest of the workmen fed, but
Fabo ran with all speed to the side of
his wife, who stood in a shower of
sputtering and exploding fireworks, but
continued to clutch the dinner basket.
With the fireworks shooting all about
them, the husband struggled to the
door and out into the open with the
limp and badly burned form of his bride
in his arms. An ambulance hurried
the woman to st. Francis Hospital,
where she died.
