The Herald is very glad that this

EGAN SPEAKS

EGAN SPEAKS
"South Dakota's Greatest Orator"
has visited Hurley and made his first
address to Hurley audience on
Tuesday night of this week. In
spite of the short notice he had a
good sized aundience and held the
close attention of his auditors till a
late hour. Most Hurley people had
never seen him before and were
greatly interested in his appearance.
They found Egan to be a large
heavy man. smooth of face and with
long black hair and dressed in a
prince albert coat. The first inn
preston that he gives is that he is
a great actor. He is dramatic at all
times. Sometimes he raised his
voice to thunder and then dropped
it to faint whisper. At other times
he stood In the center of the stage
and spoke no word but merely
twitched his face and mouth as
though in great agony. Then Re
would clasp his hands over his head
as if in suffering or dart to one side
of the stage and lean against the
wall and then rush back to the CEN
ter again. 1t was dramatic, even
tragic, and interested his hearers
greatly.
He spent most of his time telling
the history of the Kaufman case and
made the story as narrowing as pos
sible. He did not lack for self as
surance and constantly boasted of
his legal ability, education, incor-
ruptibility, unselfshness and zeal for
the good. He touched very lightly
on the O'Grady case in which he was
disbarred. He showed that he had
taken a deed to Mrs. O'Grady's
property in order to idemnify him
self while on her bond but failed to
tell the audience that he also had a
contract from her in which she
agreed to give him ten thousand
dollars for defending her so that
there was not the slightest chance in
any event for her to recover any of
this money. That later the courts
made him give back this property on
the ground that the poor old woman
was of unsound mind when she
made the contract and that a year
later she died in an insane asylum.
It was for this act he was disbarred.
At the close of his speech he de-
voted few minutes to his platform.
He severely criticised the insurgent
control of state affairs for the crea-
tion of several useless offices and
seemed to have the sympathy of his
audience on this point. He made it
very clear that he wanted to be
governor though just whv his tale
of woe entitled him to that office
was not so clear.
His speech abounded in such ex-
pressions as liar" ''despicable
curs," "false as hell" thieves"
"jail birds" "adulterers" and many
more. He found base motive act.
uating everyone that opposed him.
He said that the reason why he had
no newspaper support was that he
did not have money to buy it. He
mentioned by name and criticized
every insurgent editor in the county
save only the editor of the Herald
whom he handled very carefully.
As whole the speech was enter
tanning, contained much truth and
was carefully received but so far as
convincing anyone that he was fit
person for governor it was a failure.

young children reside on West Sec
ond street, Roswell, and who, with his
two grown sons, runs a truck farm
near Corona, n. NJ, over on the Rock
Island railroad, is now in the Cnaves
county Jail, along with his two sons,
and all three are accused of the nuT
der of w. ]. McAdans, a deputy sher
if at Corona, Lincoln county, At nine
o'clock last night. The trio went from
Corona to Torrance after the killing
and came to Roswell by mail auto
this morning, seeking safety, they
state, and the advice of their lawyer,
w w. Gatewood, and, upon ais advice,
gave themselves up to the officers of
Chaves county. They admit the kill
Tag and to their lawyer told their
whole story. They consider them
selves blaneless in the whole matter.
The trouble dates to last June when
Mr.. Trapp was put in the town Gala
boose at Corona by Deputy McAda-ns
for carrying a loaded Winchester in
his truck wagon According to Traps
story, it dates further back than that;
facs that he stood for law ard order
and worked for prohibition, against

side of the question.
After the incident of last June. the

between Trapp and the officers there
grew, and lately, through Attorney
Gatewood, Mr.. Trapp filed in District
court of Chaves County, suit for
$4,000 against Deputy McAdams and
ne sheriff of Lincoln county, on tle
charge of false Imprisonment. The fl
ing of this suit followed the arrest
of Mr.. Trapp on a warrant, charging
him with carrying a Winchester. On
this charge MIR. Trapp and his law
yers. Gatewood & Graves. appeared in
justice court yesterday and secured
4 change of venue to Carrizozo. After

To his lawyer, Mr.. Trapp relates
that at about nine o'clock last night

Sheriff Clay Davidson came to his
/ door and. when he responded to the
