CITATION OF STRUCTURAL IRON

RACES.


Court House, Los Angeles, Cal,
Oct. 11.-When the actual trial of
James B. Mcnamara, alleged dyna-
inter and cause of the explosion
which killed 21 persons in the Los
Angeles Times building on October
l, 1910, began this afternoon it was
realized on both sides that the pro-
ceedings were onl va curtain-raiser.
Even the prosecution admits that
James B. Mcnamara was only a tool
in the alleged conspiracy. His con-
viction, should it be possible, would
mean simply the prologue in the
drama which has for its object the
coupling of the International Associ-
alton of Structural IroQ and Bridge
Workers with not only the destruc-
tion of the Times building, but with
numerous dynamiting episodes cover
ing every section of the United
States.
That the defense realized this was
shown by the careful attitude taken
by the attorneys.

lay foundation whereby Detective
Burns can make good his charge that

perfect Defense" he added, "and are
convinced that we will secure an ac-
quittal."

Commander Booth was given q re-
ception at the Grand last night that
must have made her heart beat fast
er. On the stage, besides Grand
Army people, were Oregons young
governor, Secretary of State Olcott,
Theodore Roth, Max Buren,, Mr.. AL
bert, Mr. McGilchrist and dozen
other prominent Salem citizens and
in the big theater in front of her a
sea of faces greeted her with appre-
ciative smiles, the building being
packed to capacity
After song followed a brief but
eloquent prayer by Brigadier Thomas
Stayton, and a solo by Major Erick-
son in which he persuaded the audi
ence to join in the chorus, with
hearty good will, Governor West in a
short but appropriate little talk, in
troduced the woman all had come to
see-Commander Eva Booth.
Miss Booth during the preliminary
exercises, sat near the table on the
platform, chatting at times with the
Governor, who was on her right.
She Is of a different type than that
the reporter had expected, and prob
ably from what most of the audience
had imagined her. She Is tall will
lowy and graceful in her movements,
self poised, and apparently without
self consciousness Her features are
rather large-her nose prominent,
lower face strong, as was probably
the forehead, but this was under the
canopy and covering of a pompa-
dour. Her face reminded one Of the
old crusaders. Strong, yet spiritual;
firm, yet kindly.
In sense the big audience was
disappointed, for most of those pres
ent were there to learn of the work
of the Salvation Army from its lead
err They wanted to know from her
the history of the movement, the
good it had accomplished. They
wanted to know and understand the
Salvation Army, and they were given
instead, sermon 1t matters not
that it was a sermon by Miss Booth.
Most of us have our own faiths and
beliefs. our own ideas about heaven
and the other place, and we can
hear these things ably discussed any
and every Sunday in our local
churches. Miss Booths sermon was
strong her word painting fine, her
logic convincing. but it was not what
the audience turned out to hear, and
in this respect alone, was disap-
pointing.
Miss Booth has a pleasing manner,
good delivery mobile and ex-
pressiye face and fine command of
language. Her voice, except when
she talked with emphasis, is well
modulated. and she has 1t under splen
did control, and when she puts on
the soft pedal, It is silyery sweet in
its cadences.
Nevertheless, Salem is glad to have
had the opportunity to see and hear
her. and to express appreciation OF
her, and the Salvation Army's great
work.
A dozen or more boys from the
prison attended the meeting, and at
its close, she walkd over to them,
shook hands and chatted a few mo-
ments before being hurried off to her
train.

he supplied himself with attractive
samples of fruit and literature from
the board of trade offices for the pur-
pose Of making a little boosting cam
paign for the Willamette Valley and
Salem in particular. Under date of
October 3, he writes Secretary Hofer
from Clifton, Arizona, submitting
large list of names and asked to
have literature mailed them, In SUBJ
hitting this list, Mr.. Ellis writes:

Mr. Ellis Is doing good work and
