THE PRECIPITANCY OF MR..

he desires special session to revise
the tariff Immediately after the cleo
tion; for fear the Democrats will
have the next congress.
That is not spoken like a good citl-
zen or a broad man. II is not even
spoken like good partisan. 1t is
rather the declaration of a captious
candidate. who thinks he sees a
chance TO pick a flaw in the state
ment OF an opponent.

fidence in the people than Mr.. Fair
banks evinces. If Democratic vic

IL certainly would not indicate any

Further the court, in private in
quiry, must first inquire into the
competency of any confession. The
confession of this defendant was an
involuntary confession, taken under
circumstances that are a scandal on
jurisprudence, secured under collus-

the Pinkerton Detective Agency. and
under promise to the defendant that
the officers were not after the defend=

stood by his confession. I'll prove

Mr.. Hogg replied for the state.
"At this point" he said. nothing
is disclosed by this witness that tends
to incriminate this defendant. And
the defense have merely used this
opportunity to get their statement be-
fore the jury. The statement to this
witness was made three months af-
ter the MCFARLAND confession. We
can show at the proper time the ut
ter falsity of every one of Judge Hill
tons statements regarding this con-
fessfon. But, if we are to meet this
question of the admissibiiit of the

first be determined by the court in
