FOUND NOT GuILTY

The dynamiting of the Los Angel
es Times building was the beginning
of series of startling and exciting
events.
For some time all was quiet con-
cerning the movements of any one
connected with the Los Angeles af-
fair. After few months the news
was spread abroad that a detective
had secured confession from GER
tain person connected with the affair.
He implicated others who finally
made confession after they had been
on trial for some time.
During the trial charges were made
that the defense had made attempts
to bribe the jury. Shortly after
these charges were made the confess
sions Of the McNamaras were given
and they were sentenced to the state
penitentiary.
But the bribery charges were not
to be dropped and informations were
filed again Attorney Darrow who
had gone all the way from Chicago
to Los Angeles to defend those
charged with the crime of blowing
up the Times building.
For some three months Darrow has
been on trial. The case was fought
with all energy and bitterness. The
court was compelled to fine and inn
prison attorneys for contempt of
court SO bitter was the contest in
the court room. After all this trou-
BILE and expense the jury found that
Darrow was not guilty of bribery.

BLINDED BY PREJUDICE.

1t is very easy matter for the pa
pers of England to criticise this
country whenever we have any con-
siderable difference of opinion as to
the methods of administration. They
accept every opportunity to point TO
this thing on that thing as showing
evidence of weakness in Republican
form of government. They claim that
this is an overgrown Democracy and
that it is impossible for it to long ex-
ist. In fact they insist that the people
Of this country or any other are not
capable of giving themselves the best
possible form of government.
When they offer their criticism
they, through prejudice, are blinded
and are unable to see the weakness
in their own government in instances
such as that accompanying the pas
sage of the home rule bill for Ire
land. They forget that upon the an
nouncement of such a measure part
of the inhabitants of that empire i'm
mediately prepared for war and
threatened open rebellion such as we
have not had in this country since
the Civil war. The announcement
that the home rule law was TO be en-
forced in Ireland by the British gov
ernment was signal to take up arms
and resist to death such enforcement
and yet in the eyes of the English
politicians the English government lie
huge success and the American gov
ernment n monumental failure.
