those who attend the lecture to be
given here on the evening Of Nov. 10.

Socialists. who will deliver an expose
of socialism under the auspices of the
knights Of Columbus. Mr. Goldstein
was formerly high in the leadership OF
the Socialist party and was that or
ganization's first candidate for mayor
of Boston. Later he brought about a
rupture at the Socialist convention at
Boston in 1902. when he endeavored to
put through constitutional amend
ment which would have had the effect
of repudiating the Socialistic alleged
doctrines of free love, anti religion and
violence.
At frequent intervals upon his tour
Mr.. Goldstein has been Interrupted IL
the course of his talk by Socialists and
1t Is expected that by the time he
reaches Boise something will be doing
In that line also. His lecture Is said to
be a bitter arraignment of Socialism
and its theories and stirs up the men,
bers Of that body polite.
Mr.. Goldstein is prominent labor
leader in the east and attacks Socialism
as being the foe Of workmen. He is an
official of the cigarmakers union of
Boston and has been prominently
identified with labor questions for years.

In less than 200 words Judge Davis
yesterday afternoon quelched the eff
fort of the Central Dressed Meat COM
pany to gain five days of time and to
quash the summons under two indict-
ments already returned by the Ada
county grand jury.
The decision that sustained the con-
tontion Of the county attorney and that
held summons issued under the indict-
ments valid was handed down late yes
terday after Judge Davis had gone into
the authorities that had been submitted
to him, both by the company and by the
state
The company has contended that the
law gives ii five days from the time
summons are served until the appear
ance has to he made. but the court de-
cided that the provisions of the stature
required such time only In the cases
that so Immediately before the justice
Of the peace or other committing mag
istrates He held that the district court
in the cases Of this kind Is not regard
ed in law as magistrate" and that
the court itself has the authority to set
the day on which appearance shall be
made. The statutes guarantee to the
corporation. the court says. one day I'm
which to appear after the summons
have been served or such additional
time as the judge of the court may de-
tcrmine. In view of tlfese facts Judge
Davis overruled the demurrer of the de-
PENDANT and notified the attorneys in
the case of his decision.
"Tc say that ! am astoundcd at srch
ground for a demurrer would be but
TO put my feelings mildly" declared

to get the summons on the indictments
against the Central Dressed Meat COM
pany QCashed.
1.-THE law grants five days to the de-
PENDANT in actions that are brought In
justice courts or before committing
magistrates. have never heard OF nor
read an instance wherein the districs
Judge in this state wkas called
MAGISTRATE The Central dressed
Meat company was not brought before
the justice Of the peace for preliminary
examination. It was indicted by q
county grand jury. The section OF the
codes on which the demurrer IL based
refers, to my mind. only to justice OF
the peace courts and to preliminary ex-
animation before such magistrates. II
has absolutely nothing to do with In
dictments made by the grand jury OF
the county when persons or corpora :
tions are brought Immediately before
the district court
Claude Gibson. representing the de-
PENDANT company, argued that the fuil
legal limit Of five days had not elapsed
since the serving Of the summon UNI
der the indictments and the date for
appearance in court named on the face
OF the papers. The summons was
served Oct. and the company was or
dered into court by Oct. 10. less than
the legal time. He declared that the
defendants must have that amount II
time and he insisted that the court
give him the full number Of days before
appearance.
The demurrer is the first step in the
company's fight against the indict,
ments returned by the Ada county
grand jury charging 1t with maintain
ing slaughter house in an insanitary
condition and with failure to properly
tank the offal according to law.
The demurrer on the indictments
against Tommy Gaffney and F. G. Ed
wards. charging forgery. was also ar
gued c. Fl. Edwards for the defend
ants claims that the indictment con-
tains two charges, forgery and the
PASSING TO forged draft and Is there
fore illegal. He contended that the
state should have made two separate
charges in two different indictments OF
two counts in the same indictment in
stead Of making two charges hinge to-
gether as he claims that they now do
The court decided late yesterday af-
ternoon that the indictments against
Gaffney and Edwards did not contain
two separate charges sufficient to war
rant him in quashing 1t and he over
ruled the motion Of their attorneys q
that effect.

1.-THE sections Of the codes re-
ferred to by the attorney for the
defense in support of his motion
In these cases appear to apply
to an examination by a magis-
trate after information and pre-
sentiment and not to apply in the
case Of an indictment by the
grand jury.
"A corporation that is indicted
may appear ana plead by coun-
sci, but there is no provision of
the statutes providing for any
specific time within which it
shall do so and probably the
general provision granting de-
PENDANT a reasonable time not
less than one day, to be fixed by
the court, should apply, and up
on the failure Of such corpora
ton to appear at the time set.
the court should enter a plea Of
not guilty to proceed as in other
cases.
The motion will, therefore, be
denic l."
