"Oh." said the minister, Now San.
day, after this II you think that am
exaggerating at all, you Whistle

SO tho agreement was made. Now
the following Sunday the good man
preached the sermon about Samson
tying together two hundred foxes tails
and sending them into the corn.felds
of the Ph!listines. And the good man
couldn't understand how Samson could
or anybody else could tie together 200
foxes tails because the tails were not
long enough, and so he started
| Dearly Beloved, first Of all you may
wonder how Samson could tie together
two hundred foxes tails, but you must
understand that the foxes in the East
have. are vastly longer, have vastly
longer tails than foxes in Old Scot
land Travellers in the east tell us
that foxes there have tails thirty to
forty yards long -
Gives vent to a whistle?)
But there are other travellers, dear.
ly beloved, that tell us that foxes in
the East have tails twenty to thirty
yards long -
Olives vent to a whistle)
And there Is still others who tell
us that foxes in the East and in Jeru.
salem and Palestine, and the Holy
Land, have tails ten to fifteen yards
long -
(whistle)
Sandy, Sandy my mond, you may
WHSLE, and you may Whistle. and
may WHSLE till the devil gets you,
but will not shorten the foxes tails

Now that is about what We had in
the Hot trial. Isn't that what we had
In the riot case? Just exactly what
we had In the riot case. These people
come here, gentlemen Of the jury, and
unblushlngly say there was shower
OF sticks and stones. and then when
they came down to 1t. It was just the
case OF the Cat and the Child. there
was two stones and one stick. And
do you believe there was any stick.
or any stone? Don't believe anything
Of the kind. But suppose there had
been a riot. There were thirteen of
these men who were tried before
Judge Robinson, and their case was
or a mistrial was entered and was
transferred to His Honor, and unless
the prosecution gets tired of these
things you gentlemen will have an op-
portunity OF really knowing whether
there was any riot at Waipahu or not.
You will have an opportunity o.
either convicting those who caused
that riot or took part In It, or acquit.
ting them.
You Will have an opportunity Of say.
Ing that the riot was caused by the
foolishness OF a police officer who shot
on his pistol In the air and brandished
his gun all around, soaring the people
so that they came around and got
angry about Il.
But has 1t anything to do with this
case. II II were shown that this had
anything to do with this case then
we would have gone into the question
and shown you gentlemen that there
was absolutely no riot there; that tho
only thing that there was there was
the foolish action OF a policeman who
FOR moment lost control of himself
mat there was no riot riot there. But
as say to you again. those. who took
part In the riot. II there was a riot.
are to be tried before this court and
VIII have to answer at this Bar of
Justice. Don't imagine. don't dream.
that because OF that We also must DO
punished for that riot, We also must
stand trial for that riot. n the riot
was shown to be In pursuance of |
conspiracy. yes, then those men who
took part In the riot. II there was
riot. IL there were any men taking |
part In the riot. then they are cocoon. |
spirators, then we would have some
OF these ghosts" materialize.
But ! say to you gentlemen OF the
jury. there isn't particle OF evidence
TO show that this alleged riot at Wal.
pahu had anything whatever to do
with any conspiracy entered into by
these defendants, and Others.
