THE DEFENSE or NESS.

Just why the Bismarck Tribune |

for every Law breaker :. who is ar
raigned in the local courts cannot be
explained upon any other ground than |
that such law breakers are stalwarts
and that the Tribune believes In stick.
ing with it's own crowd. Unless the !
offender against the law is some I'M
known boot-legger or some unfortu-
nate person, who through sheer neces-
|sity or weakness has committed some
minor crime, the Tribunt is faithful in
each and every instance in coloring
the court proceedings in favor of the
defendant. Their latest enleavor in
this field of unusual activity is theii
continued defense of Ben Ness, re-
Gently convicted Of attempted bribery
They did not seem to feel that they
are making out clear case in favor
of Mess unless they besn.irched the
characters of Dewitt and Twichell, the
chief witnesses for the state. To be
sure Ness belongs to the Tribune
crowd of politicians. He vas bosom
friend of John Cowan's and is great
admirer and crony of Ed. Patterson.
That it may be retardins justice cid
not deter the Tribune in the Least from
championing his cause. }..~ A.
This is not the first time that Ness
has been mixed up in an affair of this
kind. He has attempted something
very similar in another direction ut
least once during the last two sessions
of the legislature. The legislature

/, On the other HAND, che fact that
Divet and Twichell are men Or reputa-.
ton and high standing throughout the
state does not in the least deter the
Tribune from sluring their characters
and leading the public to believe that
they, are really more 10 blame in the
affair than Ness. The regretable part
Of such an attitude toward crime, as
that assumed by the Tribune, is that it

people in Bismarck who look upon
crime and the criminal in; the same
light that the Bismarck Tribune does,
yet the great majority of the people
here earnestly desire the enforcement
LOT the law and the maintenance of high
moral ideals in the community as
Earnestly as the people do anywhere.
The Bismarck Tribune does not stand
for the better element, nor indeed for

Offers PROOF OF
U. P. FORGERY

Washington, July 9.-David La
mar called himself "the villain" of
Wall street before the Senate lobby
Investigation committee today and
in a demonstration OF mental gym
nastics attempted to show that his
friend, Edward 1.auterDach, was
really the victim of conspiracy on
Lamar's part TO bring Lewis Cass
Ledyard and his friends into the
OPEN
Lamar and LauterDach were ex-
cused finally by the committee this
afternoon, and S. w. Mcclure OF
Lake City, Utah, secretary of the
American Wool Growers association
was called to the stand.
Mcclure testified that the only
expenditure made by the wool grow
ers to influence legislation that he
knew OF We're about $557, which
represented his personal expenses
here
Lamar submitted to the lobby
committee statement which he
claims proves that there had been
a wholesale forgery on the books of
the Union Pacific raj road.
Lamar surprised the committee
with some OF his bold statements.
II am the one villain in Wall
street. am the one bad man there
and the rest of them are good and
innocent" he said, explaining whv
he had impersonated Palmer and
Riordan and why he had sent Lap
terbach to Ledyard with political
arrangement" designed 10 head Off
the steel trust litigation.
Lamar then told Chairman Over
man and other members of the COM
mittee that he had perfect conf
denCeain them and said his purpose
in calling attention to an alleged
forgery of SS2 100000 in the books
of the Union Pacific and his eXpOsi-
ton OF the situation existing be-
tween the financial interests and
himself and Lauterbach was to COM
PEE these men to recognize the folly
of their course against Lauterbach.
If they did not do so he hoped to
compel them to come out in the open
and display the conspiracy and the
surreptitious statements they had
circulated against us in New York
Tor years"
Has Accomplished Aim.
Part of this has been accomplish
ed" he concluded.
Referring to the impersonation of
Representative ID. j. Riordan two
years ago, Lamar swore that he told
Charles Steele OF j. p Morgan 4 Co.
two DAYS after the conversation that
he had impersonated Riordan.
There could have been no decep-
tion after that" said Lamar.
