figured as defendant, Ruef himself has
twice appeared to answer on the
scores of indictments pending against
nm. In the first case wherein Ruef
was charged with extorting money
from the proprietor of French res
taurant, the defendant pleaded guilty,
at the same time protesting his inno-
cence. The case was afterwards re-
Versed by the higher courts. In the
second trial upon a charge of having
bribed supervisors i'm the application
of the Parkside Realty company for a
trolley franchise, the jury disagreed
after seven hours deliberation.
The pending trial was upon an in
dictment charging Ruef with bribng
former Supervisor John j. Furey. 1t
was commenced on August 20, and
therefore has been in progress 105
days, of which at least seventy were
actual court days. The jury was not
completed until November 6, when the
trial was seventy-two days old. The
record, now containing 5000 pages
and over 100000 words, shows that
.450 talesmen were summoned of
whom 446 were actually examined. AS

sheriff as they were selected, six of
the men who composed the jury have

The attempted assassination OF

brought the farmer somewhat nearer
to his kind. What is now required are
good roads, the Identifying of the
landscape and the advancement of So
cial and intellectual life in rural COM
munities. In business way the
farmers need more cooperation among
themselves both in buying and selling.
Now they are at the mercy of market
manipulators and middlemen. If they
would band together, had warehouses
in which to store their products until
the market was most favorable and
would buy in large quantities they
would save at both ends. These OBJ
jects can frequently be brought about
by organizations such as the Grange,
the Alliance, the Farmers union and
kindred bodies. Such movements serve
another desirable object in that they
increase the social life of the farmer
and heighten his intellectual life, the
lodge room often serving as debating
club, a literary society and a school.
The writer has advocated a genera:
movement embracing ali these objects
All of these efforts seemed to him re-
lated and capable of being included
in one general work. In q gardening
and landscape page he has repeatedly
urged this entire programme, at one
time giving it a definite statement
thus:
1t has occurred to the writer that there
should be Il general movement inaugu
rated along certain definite lines that are
kindred and that naturally support eacl
other.
The first of these should be a propa
ganda showing the Importance of horti
culture and landscape gardening. This
should not be confined to large estates
but the people generally should be inter
ested in it.

rated against the prin, precise and form
