HARD FOUGHT
LEGAL BATTLE
Charleton Will Not Be Turn
ed Over to Italian Au-
thoritiea Without
Severe Contest

New York, Dec. 1S.-Porter Charl.
ton. who is accused OF having killed
his Wife, Mary Scott Castle Charlton,
In Italy. will not be turned over to
the Italian authorities without a long
and hard-fought legal battle, the
first gun In which was fired today
when the hearing on the writ of ha-
beas coIpue granted TO the accused
MAJ viii be held. The writ was is-
sued by Judge Rallstab. in the Unit
ed States circuit court at Trenton,
N. j.. following tho decision of the
State department at Washington that
Italy is entitled to the extradition OF
the boy. This announcement was
made by Secretary Knox ten days ago,
and since then preparations have
been going forward 70 ta'c I'd, ntage
OF every legal technirali', to urevent
'the judgement from goin@ into Of
feet.
Insanity Is to- be the main defense
OF Charleton's attorneys. who allege
that the committing magistrate erred
iH, refusing testimony as TO the ac-
cused mans mental status. Il is clear.
ly intimated In the statement Of Sec
retary Knox that should a higher court
decide that testimony az to Charlton's
sanity should be admitted, then the
State department viii again take ND
the case and consider II from this
Viewpoint.
Leading attorneys OF New York
and Washington are of the opinion
that an insane man cannot be tried.
and hence cannot be legally surren-
dered for trial. Thus the whole case
may come again before Secretary
Knox. Edwin Smith, of counsel for
Charlton, declares that the case will
be carried to the United States Su.
IRENE Court, If necessary.
The father of the prisoner, Judge
Charlton of Washington, was mem
Der OF the same class at Yale as
President Taft and Is influential in
government circles. Sincerely beliey.
ing that his son is insane, he will
spare no expense to save him from
the fate which would await him in
Italy.
Should the ATTEMPT 10 prevent
Charlton's extradition prove unavaI-
ing, there Is little doubt that the ItaI-
ian courts would speedily convict him
of the murder Of Mary Scott Castle

Birds a. Farmers, Allies.

Every year there comes protest
against the American way Of permit
ting birds to breed and fatten. The
sparrow especially is objected to as an
agent Of destruction without redeem
ing trait. But bird experts do not
place the sparrow on the blacklist.
and some even have good word for
the crow and hawk. Many bird de-
tenders have gone so far as to urge
farmers to feed the birds in extreme
cold weather in order to have them do
the work Of weed and insect destroy
ers in the spring.
1t is discouraging to have birds at
tack the small fruits and even pluck
up seeds that have been planted. But
it Is contended that at the worst the
birds protect more than they destroy.
Some of them eat weed seed. others
eat up insects that If left alive would
destroy young plants, and others attack
mice that would play havoc in grain
stacks and bins If left alive. 1t is true
that some birds may be allies of the
farmers in one section and farm pests
in another so it Is unfair to condemn
Unfortunately the sworn foes Of
birds.

We regret to state that at the last
minute previous to election cam
paign circular was issued signed by
one P. E. Stookey of Lewiston in
ferring that D. T. A. Macintosh as.
sisted the "wets" in the recent local
option election in Nee Perez County.
While the circular is signed by Mr..
Stookey we do not believe that he is
responsible for the same being issued
and we believe that if the blame
should be traced to the place where 1t
belongs that the frall would lead di.
rectly to the representative of the anti.
saloon league in Latah County. This
gentleman had positively promised
without condition to refrain from
taking any action in regard to
County politics in offices having
nothing to do with the making or en-.
forcing of laws. The issuance of this
circular merely proves what we have
claimed for several weeks. viz. that
this gentlemens word in regard to
any political question was absolutely
worthless.
AS far as the results in the election
we're concerned, the circular was a
boomerang and did Mr.. Macintosh
more good than harm, his defeat be.
ing caused by other conditions.
When the leaders of these so.called
reform movements will stoop to such
dirty political tricks, what can you
expect from the common people, the
poor unfortunate Ito be reformed
