POLLING HOURS
Too Short for Mondays Ballot Casting.

Circun stances attending Mondays
voting Indicated that it would be wise
to extend the time during which the
polls will be open in future town cleo
lions. With a contest on like that of
Monday. when so many split tickets
were being cast. much more time is
necessarily consumed than was re-
auired before the Australian ballot
came into use, and long line of voters
waiting to ges into the booths was the
order of things during the greater part
OF the five hours between 9 and 2
o'clock. The delay was unavoidable,
however, and voting as fast as possible
only $40 ballots were dropped in during
the first three hours and a half.

OPINION OF
The JUROR IS
UNIMPORTANT
JUDGE HOLDS THAT DEPENDENT
is HAVING FAIR TRIAL, EVEN
THOUGH JUROR SAYS HE BE-
LIEVES THAT HE is GUILTY.

Hall of Records, Los Angeles, Oct.
2S.-The defense in the Mcnamara
case lost an important point today
when Judge Bordwell ruled directly
against its two challenges interposed
by them against opinionated venlre-
men. Not only were the challenges
disallowed by Judge Bordwell, but he
peremptorily refused to permit Dar-
row to either argue against the rul-
ing or to further question the two
men.
The jurors in question, who now
can only be eliminated by peremp-
tory challenge, are A. G. Winter, a
retired butcher, who admitted a
strong prejudice against organized
labor and that he had acted as a
strikebreaker in the butchers strike
in this city several years ago; and
Walter N. Frampton, farmer, who
said he believed Mcnamara guilty be-
yond reasonable doubt, but said
later he could lay aside his opinion
and presume his innocence
1t was Darrow's insistence on an
! immediate ruling on these two cases
/ that precipitated last nights episode
when the defense was forced to pro-
ceed by the direct order of Judge
Bordwell and his decision came as a
bitter disappointment to McNamara's
attorneys. AS a result of 1t, 1t is pos
sible that the defense may try to gel
change of venue, although this Is
point they have not yet decided
upon.
Judge Bordwell rebuked Darrow
and the chief counsel for the defense
Today's session also was marked by
a bitter clash between attorneys OF
both sides and by Darrow, in effect
charging Judge Bordwell with un
fairness. Darrow fatty said that tn,
court questioned men the defense
challenged in one way, and men tina
the state challenged in another
Much bitter feeling will be engen
dered in the cases and frequen
clashes are certain from now on.

HOT FIRE AT
CROSS and
WHITE HOUSE
STARTS FROM FIRE IN BUTCHER
SHOP AND DOES $500 DAM
AGE-FIRE BOYS MADE QUICK
RUN AND DID EXCELLENT
WORK.

A hot fire started this morning in
the manufacturing department of E.

street, at 1880 and did the follow
ing damage:
E. C. Cross & Son, plant and
machinery e. ...... $4,000

The property was nearly fully in
sured, except the kitchen of the
White House restaurant. Adjusters
for the insurance companies are max
ing settlements.
The fire department made one of
quickest responses on records, and,
while the fire was very hot, every
thing being saturated with grease
and oil, and lot of lard and tallow
in the rendering rooms, and some of
the men were struck by falling tim
bers, none were hurt After a fierce
hand to hand fight with the flames
for nearly an hour, they We're gotten
under control, and kept from spread
ing to the buildings on either side.
1t was a close shut-in fire, and was
liable, If not controlled, to spread
to the entire block The fire started
from the furnace, where the men had
just started the fire under the fur
mace, and then W Mt into the cold
storage department to start the am
monia plant.
It is believed that a puff of cold
air in the furnace box threw fire out
into the factory and 1t was all in
flames when discovered.
The department was on the ground
in one minute after the alarm went
in, and soon had hose playing from
both front And the rear. The force
from the Capital drug store corner
was weakened by the two right
angles the water has to turn on ac-
count Of the sprinkler attachment
It is stated as a fact that about 1
hydrants are more or Ices crippled
with street sprinkling attachments
and ought to be made free for ex.

Both fire stations had every man
out, and in all 21 members of the
paid department were on duty, ant
when it was over realized they hat
fought one of the hottest fires evel
happening in our city. Chief Savage
and Engineer Churchill, from the
East Salem station were compliment
ed by many who were present at thu
fire.
In the run from the East station
the fire horse known as "Old jim
dropped on State street at the corne
of Winter, and was dragged about q
feet The driver and hosemen hat
