NOW roe BUSINESS REVIVAL.


The country is promised improved
business after Tuesdays election,
whether Bryan or Taft is success
ful.
Each lays claim to be the advance
agent of prosperity. So we need to
put away no apprehension. no mat
ter how the voters decide.
The country needs a revival of
trade, needs to get away from the
disastrous panic which has prevailed
for year, and with peace and rest
from the agitation of the politicians,
both national and state. there ought
20 be a marked impulse on every
thing bearing on prosperity.
Let US hope this will be the reali-
zation.

motion of gratitude he made was TO hud-
die close to the woman and begin to whim-
per to her like some poor. forlorn old
baby lost in the dark.
The woman had to get out at the Provi-
dence Hospital and as the conductor
opened the door she offered him two
tickets that the old man might not
be put off on strange street. The con-
ductor refused with a smile that showed
that what he didn't know about just
such cases wasn't worth considering, and
one of the lads said to her confidentially
as she left the step:
Don't you worry, lady; well see him
through"
Which shows what a splendid. fine thing
a boy is-when he gets ready.

POLICEMAN'S MURDERER
is DENIED NEW TRIAL
John Byrne, Who Slew Man in
Saloon HoIdup, Must Die
on the GaIIowS

John Byrne, convicted of murder in
the first degree, the only penalty for
which is hanging, was refused a new
trial by Judge Lawlor yesterday. He
will be sentenced Saturday next. Byrne
was convicted of shooting George
O'Connell, an ex-policeman, in saloon
at Brannan and Sixth streets, on the
night of November Is, 1906. when he
and others held up the saloon. In the
trial and in the argument on the mo-
tion for a trial an attempt was made
TO fasten the crime upon Thomas Ho-,
gan, a blacksmith.
Judge Lawlor said yesterday that
after closely studying all the testi-
mony and after permitting the intro
duction of testimony in support of
the motion for new trial, he was con-
vinced that Byrne was the guilty man,
and that Hogan was entirely innocent.
The new evidence that had been Of
fered would not, in the opinion of the
Judge, produce any different result if
the case were submitted to another
jury.
4 motion in arrest of judgment made
by Theodore Roche, attorney for Byrne,
was denied.
