HOW TO KILL CANA
DIAN THIsTLES

TO kill Canadian thistles take it at
it's weakest point This is when it is
in blossom. At this time it has
drawn heavily on the food stored up
in it's roots. Now it ard plow at
once; then pillow often enough so that
no thistle is allowed to get up. Keep
at this until fall and thc thistle will
be dead. If this treatment is begun
before they are in blossom it will be
harder to kill them as they will in
that case have more food in the 70 IS
to help bridge them over.

LOS ANGELES. Dec. .l--Janes B.

 John J McNamara. the brother. also pleaded guilty to blowing up the Lle- wellyn works. and the two men will receive sentence Tuesday.
 The men stated that they wished to enter. or change their plea from not guilty and they startled the court when James B. pleaded guilty as charged in the indictment of being guilty of blow ng up the Los Angeles Times and he was followed by his brother. John J., stating he too was guilty of blowing ID the Llewellyn works of which he ias also been indicted.
 Just what pressure had been brought to bear Is not known but over Thurs. day. Thanksgiving. and the arreet of the cx-deputy United States marshal for trying to bribe the juror Lockwood 1as had a great deal to do with It

to get supplies cf the explosive.
 Coming to Toledo. I found witness es to prove that James B. McNamara and McAIanigal put up at the Park hotel there on April II. They were seen with four dress suit cases. three of which they took away with them. and these were found in the cellar of the building a, Indianapolis where th, Structural Iron Workers Union has it7 office, and where seventy pounds of dynamite and twelve clocks for timing fuses were found.
 Accompanied by Chief of Police Knapp. of Toledo. went to the pack. age office fin the union depot today and found one of the four suit cases which McNamara and McManieal left in storage there on April 1e. The dress suit case contained nothing but twine, 'ut il bore visible and tangible marks 'f having been used to carry dyna- mite The stains made by dynamite are unmistakable. and the vallse can be identified by two of my men. who saw McNamara and McMani~al here 'n April II. and who can identify the 'allsc hv stains on the outside.
 And so on down I traced these men to Los Angeles. how they worked here in secret for several weeks under different names covering up their tracks by changing boarding houses. [ have many witnesses who can prove where they were at the time the Times building was blown up and in fac, their actions to me is as clear as daylight.
 That the men have confessed is not T bit surprising to me. knowing as they do the mass of evidence I have secur- ed against them. and their guilt in the matter no doubt prompted them to confess even against the advise of the splendid array of talent the union. have employed to defend them Of the monstrous and dastardly crime.
 Certain classes of papers. known as labor and socialistic sheets have been upholding these men in their crime stating they were innocent and the capitalists trying 10 railroad them t" death. Their confession sets this all aside. and We wonder how they will explain all their mouthings of the past seven months. and curses heaped upon my head for trying to bring these crim- mais to the bar of justice"
