vened court. The action of the
court in permitting the lawyers to
make inquiry into the state Of
mind of prospective juror, so fal
as it affects either labor unions
or manufacturers associations
has enraged the district attorney
who insisted again today that II

clash when the defense continued

Wednesday indicated by certain
of his answers that he is opposed

The announcement that the

session for nearly a year and
which has been bitterly charac-
terized by the attorneys for the
defense as an adjunct to the

journ today, caused great sur

he refused to answer questions.

clared If the jury does quit today

for the defense, and will be the
first fruits of the Mcnamara

Nelson then explained that he
had no objection to the funda-
mental principle of labor organi-
cations, but he did object to GER
taie members and officers OF
them.
Nelson said he had a positive
opinion and had had it for six
months. He finally said he be-
lieved Mcnamara guilty and that
it would require evidence to
change that opinion. He was then
challenged by the defense for
cause, but the challenge was re-
sisted by the state.

THE COUNTRY's REAL NEED.

The modern Mentor of the business
world, who seeks to correct all the
errors apparent to him, is not accom-
plishing the good he promised.
He started in to bust the trusts and
regulate legitimate business, but his
real object is to secure the control
and management of private business
in the interest of the politician. He
wants to accomplish this without
government ownership if he can, as
he figures not TO make definite set
tlement of any question that promises
turmoil and trouble in the business
world.
Mr.. Pinchot has returned from

ritory. Mr.. Fisher might present the
facts contrary to Pinchot's ideas.
To tax the people of Texas and
New York to build railroad in Alas
ka to haul coal for the Pacific coast
trade is bad business and poor policy,
especially when private capital pro-
poses to make the investment and can
be properly regulated and the cost
will fall on the people who buy the
coal. Mr.. Pinchot's anxiety to pro-
tect the small operator is evidence of
his impracticability. Mines can never
