erone, was resplendent in a pink

Last Sunday.

In the best game seen on
the local diamond this season,
the Parma outfit took the scalp
of the Apple Valley bunch Sun

Errors were scarce and many
good plays were made. The fea-
ture OF the game was "a sensa-
tional one-hand pickup OF a
grounder by johnson, Parma's
big third baseman. Alexander
and Andersen formed Parma's s
battery. "Chink" was especially
strong in pinches. The battery
for Apple Valley was Teutsch

A FEW THOUGHTS
ON HOME TRADING

The way to make a dollar go
as far as possible is to invest it
here at home.
Let's not only root for the
home team but for the home
town.
1t is better to wear out than
rust; it is better to boost than
to bust.
The money you spend helps to
make some town bigger and bet
ter; the only question is whether
it is to be this town or some
other.
The only thing that a man
ought to buy without looking
into it is shotgun.
Spend something with your
neighbors besides your time.
The Parma herald. (Parma, Idaho) 1903-1917, 1911-06-22

One good thing about invest
ing your money here at home is
the fact that before you invest
you can investigate.
No man ever helped this town
very much by sending money
away from it.
And nobody he ever sent it to
ever helped this town very much
either.
Look over the bargains offered
by the Heraid's advertisers.
They all have something you
need, and they'll treat you right.
Spend your money with the peo-
pie who are building up your
home town and thereby increas-
ing the value of your own prop
erty.

HAS APPEALED To
RUSSIAN CONSUL
FOR ASSISTANCE
PRISONER Is AWAITING PRE-
LINIINARY HEARING FOR
SELLING LIQUOR.

RENO, Nev, Dee. 9.-IIarry Hill
veg, new a prisoner in the county
jail awaiting hearing on a charge
of selling liquor to Indians, has ap-
pcalcd to the imperial Russian CON
sui at San Francisco for aid, claim
irg that he is citizen of Russia
and not familiar with the laws of
Il is country and that he was ar
rested for the violation of law
which he knew nothing about. He
is trying to get the Russian consul
at San Francisco to take his case
up and try and get him out of
prison.
He wrote letter to the imperial
Russian consulate at San Francisco
several days ago and yesterday he
received a reply. This letter is
written in Russian with strange
characters and there was no one
around the courthouse who could
read it. Finally the sheriff ordered
that 1t be given to HilWeg, stating
that he could not get out anyway,
so it made no difference what the
letter might inform him.
Sheriff Ferrel says that recently
every time a citizen OF a foreign
country gets arrested he appeals to
the consul of his country, but that
it seldom does the prisoner any
good. He says that they are usual
ly informed by the consul Of their
country that they must obey the
laws of the country they are in, or
take the consequences, and that it is
seldom that a foreign consul ever
takes hand in the matter.

WASHINGTON Dec. 9.-Organ-
lied labor in America has no desire
to condone the crimes of the Nc
Namaras, according to statement
issued last night by Frank Morrison,
for the American Federation of La
Dor. The statement, which was is
sued at the close of a secret meet
ing of officials of the federation,
denounced the McNamaras and con-
cluded;
1T is cruelty unjust to hold the
men of the labor movement, either
legally or morally responsible for
the crimes of individual members.
In so far as we have the right to
speak, we welcome any investigation
which the federal or state authori-
ties care to undertake The Amer'-
can labor movement and its friends
are loyal Americans and seek to re-
strain all wrong and the attain
ment of their rights within the
law"
As to knowledge of the crime the
McNamaras confessed to, the COM
mittee asserts:
We here, now, individually and
collectively, declare the first knowl-
edge or intimation of their guilt
was conveyed to us by the press

that they would not testify to any
thing. but the theory seemed to be
that it would do no harm to ask
them a few questions and establish
q record.
While federal activities attracted
the larger share of general atten-
tion here because of the possibili-
ties involved, other possibilities CT
no mean size were seen in the
coming arraignment of Bert H.
Franklin, an Investigator employed
by the Mcnamara defense, who was
arrested for bribery and who will
have his preliminary hearing next
Monday. The states witnesses at
that time probably will tell only
enough to establish what the state
will contend are grouds for holding
Franklin to the superior court,
pending the filing against him of
an information by the district at

The report in full will be made

Partly condoning the crime of the
McNamaras, however, the statement
says in the following breath:
And yet it is an awful COM
mentary on existing conditions when
one man among all millions of
workers can bring himself to a
frame of mind that the only means
to secure justice for labor involved
in the outrage is murder.

naping of the MeNamaras, who they

AMID BINDING TEARS MISS
GRAHAM TELLS HER STORY
Informs Jury She and Aged
Man Were Intimate Friends
In the Past.

NEW YORK, Dec 9.--Miss Lillian
Graham burst into such Il violent
fit of weeping that court had to
take a recess for five minutes yes
terday and interrupted her story of
her relations with w. e. D. Stokes,
whom she and Ethel Conrad are
accused of trying to murder. The
defendant lost control cf herself aft
er she had been on the stand about
10 minutes, under examination by
her own attorney
Did YOU ever have any conver-
sation with Mr.. Stokes in regard to
your vocation in life?' asked the
attorney.
Il told him | wanted to go on
the stage and he told me not to.
He said l was too good"
Here the witness voice broke and
she gave herself entirely over to
weeping.
Mr. Jordan, her attorney. then
asked about giving her money tc
Stokes
He told me that he could make
it earn big dividends and | gave
him about $1700. Several months
afterward he told me he thought
he had lost it by putting it into
a poor deal. He told me not tC
worry, to buy everything | wanted
and to send it to the desk at the
! Ansonia.
Did you have much sent to the
Ansonia?"
''No, not very much, because my

sister gave ME nearly everything
| needed"
Miss Graham then told of several
automobile rides she had with
Stokes and other entertainments he
had provided for her.
In the earlier part of her testi-
mcny Miss Graham gave her age
as % years.
She first met stokes in September,
1906, she said, when he came to
the apartments of her sister, Mrs.
Singleton, in the Ansonia. After
that, Miss Graham said, she and
Stokes met very often.
Miss Graham did not recall the
note dated December -, 1906, in
which she expressed disheartenment
because Stokes had failed to see
her two nights in succession whC
she expected him.
Miss Graham was to have testified
yesterday as the first witness fer
the defense, but the opening re-
marks Of her attorney left the
young woman in such a hysterical
condition that her counsel decided
to spare her the ordeal of the
witness chair until she became calm
er and wound up the days testi-
mony with the evidence of her sister
Mrs, Alice Agnes Andrews.
The contention of the show girls
is that while they shot Stokes, theil
acts were justified because he called
at their apartment and demanded
certain letters and started to choke
Miss Graham.

they are betrothed.
Jubilantly Tammas, on his way

his promised bride. The shock to
Geordie is too much and losing con-

Tammas and bad blood comes be-

SALT LAKE CITY, Dee. 9.--The
long arm of the federal government

gathered in what may prove to be

Deputy United States marshals took
possession of the books of the Iron
Workers local union yesterday aft

have been intimate with, and is said
to have kept Mcnamara at his
house after the Times explosion.
The accounts of the union are
wanted to trace their ultimate dis
position of large sums of money
sent by the secretary of the In
ternational Association of Bridge and
Structural Iron Workers (J. J. Nc
Namara) to the local union, osten-
sibly for organization in the west. y
Munsey, as business manager,
handled the funds and the use made
cf them may be one matter he will
be asked to explain by the federal
grand jury. Although the accounts
will be submitted first to the Los
Angeles grand jury, copies will nc
doubt be sent to Indianapolis foi
