the attorney and created smile
throughout the audience, which
throughout the trial was the largest
that ever attended case in the
Bingham county courts.
DR.. o. P. Christian, superintendent
of the Home Finding society, was
called to the witness stand. To re.
fute the statement that at all times
Tregos, she had been and bore the
DR.. Christian testified that Nellie was

approval Of the authorities. That up.
all time until she was taken to
the Trego home, she was called the
LILLE OF THE HOME because OF
her truth, verasity, honesty, integrity
and chastity. That she was loved
by all, that she never entered into the
childish unrulyness of the children ot
the class who find their way into
the home, and that she seldom en-.
gagged in the sports of the children
but preferred to spend her time in
the company of the matron or other
attaches Of the home.
The evidence went to show that
Trego, unattended by his wife, picked
the child who was named after the
emblem of purity, the fatherless child
who was a subject of charity and in
her trusting innocence she was taken
to this house, where after three years
in her young womanhood, she was
turned out upon the world with the
greatest handicap that could be
wrought upon her, a ruined woman
one who must confess her shame te
any man to whom she is to be wed
or accept the other alternative, thai
of living in constant fear of discovery
of her past life. in the event of hel
ever marrying.
The testimony Of both Trego and
his wife relative to the steps takeI
in securing the girl, went to show
that Trego's wishes alone, were con
sidered in securing q suitable gir
child, one whom he could influence tt
do his bidding and consent to his
fiendish lust. Mrs. Trego did not &C

VITAL STATISTICS

Idaho has a model law for the reg
istration of births and deaths. Under
this law the state Is divided into reg
istration districts each with local
registrar in charge.
Physicians and midwives must re-
port birth to the registrar within
ten days of its occurrence.
Dearths must be reported by the un-
dertaker or person acting as such. No
body may be buried without first fill
ing death certificate and obtaining
a burial permit.
II your doctor has not registered
the birth, he has done your child an
injustice which it may be impossible
to remedy later.
Breeders of fancy livestock are care
full to have their animals recorded at
birth. Idaho has done this for her
babies. Surely they arc as deserving
Of this consideration as is the pure
bred beast of the farm.

The Right
To Retract

The Roosevelt Newett case has been
of great interest to the newspaper
world, from the fact that in the pas
many publishers have been subjected
to injustice through the libel law. O.
recent years, the privilege of free
speech seems better established.
The Roosevelt Newett case differed
from the ordinary libel case in this:
Col. Roosevelt cared nothing for the
money end of the game, his purpose
being solely personal vindication. The
majority of libel suits are money max
ing schemes, although comyDonly the
plaintiff merely incurs lawyers fees
for both parties.
A just libel law gives the publisher
ample chance for retraction, on ac-
count of the hurry under which news
paper work is done. Searching invesr
tigation is not always possible where
the public necessarily demands the
very latest information. &
The ordinary newspaper libel is not
thing of cold blood and malice a.Or...
thought. Rather it is the slip Of a
hurried man, whose mind is too full
Of detail to note that he has left a
loose end. The law should give him
the same privilege Of making amends
Tor honest error that Col. Roosevelt
could well afford to give Editor
Newett
1t may be objected that newspapers
will be reckless about making false
statements, provided they can be re-
lieved from the heavier penalties by
confessing their mistake. That is not
at all the case, because it Is humili-
ating thing for newspaper man to
admit an error.
The one thing the editor prides him
self on is truth. 1t is no slight thing
for him to print prominently an ad-
mission that even by accident he prini
ed an untruth. He feels that it hurts
him and hurts his paper II it has
the same prominence that was given
the original publication, it usually vim
dicates fully lne victim of the publica-
tion, and it fully penalties the libeler.

The trial CT Byrd Trego, editor Of
the Idaho Republican, came on for
hearing in the district court of the
sixth judicial district, Judge ]. M
Stevens presiding, Friday morning
June 9Th, The regular panel of the
jury and the first two specials and
three men out of the third special pa.
mel was exhausted before jury could
be secured. The jury was secured at
11:3O o'clock a. m. Saturday morning
<ahd court took a recess until 1870
o'clock p. m.
The prosecutions first witness was
Nellie Ray Trego, prosecutrix, who
upon direct and cross examination
corroberated her testimony given in
the preliminary hearing. The il

Campbell, G. L. Myers, Geo. Reay,
Dave Wheeler, Charles Anderson, G..
w. Stowell, C. S. Dalton, John E.
Kelley, A. Hatch, Zed Taylor and N.
J. Thorstenberg.
Dr. F. w. Mitchell succeeded Nellie
Trego and gave expert testimony to
the effect that she had lost her vir'
ginity. Byrd Trego was called, was
succeeded by Mrs. Trego, and both
defendant and wife corroborated sub
sEazbially, the testimony of Nellie
in that they proved conclusively that
she was in bed with them, that Mrs.
Trego got up, left the bed with Trego
and Nellie in same bed, and spent
the night on a cot sitting against the
wall Of a room approximately 14x21
feet. They denied the possibility Of
Trego accomplishing her ruin at that
time. The defendants attorneys cross
questioned and asked in an attempt
to besmirch the character of prose
cutrix, whether or not she at one
time was not discovered on the front
porch of the Trego home, by Mrs. Ire
go, in the arms Of MAN. This oc.
currance was settled upon as being
in the month Of August. 1911.
Nellie stated that at that time shs
had been to a party at the home o
Ex-Mayor Capps and that Elmer
Capps, the thirteen year old son o
the Mayor, had brought her home and
that at the time Mrs. Trego flashed
tho porch light on the MAN had his
arm back of her, finishing by stating
that he was only q thirteen year oil
boy, which took decided fall out oi

In direct contradiction Of this testi
mony as to Nellie leaving the show,
being gone that long, returning in q
disheveled condition, Attorney c. s.
Beebe, his wife and Hazel Graham
Davis testified. The testimony Civ
en- by Mr.. Beebe and corroborated by
both the other witnesses, was to the
effect that Nellie left the show, that
he and his wife remained about ten
minutes longer, that they came out
Beebe going to the water fountain, his
wife to the entrance to the postoffice
that Nellie and young man were
walking on the sidewalk, that Beebe
got their mail, came out Of the post
office, saw Nellie standing on the
step of the Isis theatre, the man on
the sidewalk looking up at her, that
she had on a breakfast cap. a macki-
nav jacket, that her hair was not Wis
ibleunder the cap and that there was
no dirt or other debris on her back,
as she had it turned toward them,

that he was to be witness, and
both he and his wife testified purely
from a motive of seeing justice rem

that Mr.. Beebe's law partner was an
attorney for the defense.
Alice Beach, county superintendent
of public instruction, was sworn for
the defense She stated that she
had roomed at the Trego home from
September 10, 1910, to October 4, 1911
That she saw Trego kneeling over
Nellie while the latter was in bed.
He was engaged in putting his arm
around her, kissing and petting her
and rubbing her body with one hand.
On another occasion she heard Trego
In Nellie's room, there was no light,
she recognized him by his voice, on
night, walked, quietly to her room,
heard Trego in Nellie's room without
light, took chair, sat down in tho
ed one hour for Trego to come out,
but was not rewarded by seeing him
leave the room.
At this juncture in the examination
Attorney Hansbrough and Miss Beach
entered into heated argument rela-
tive to her testimony, in which the
attorney accused her OF not telling
the same talk as testimony, that she
had related to him when interviewed
before the trial.
Witnesses were recalled by the
prosecution to swear to Nellie's repu-
tation for truthfulness, chastity, hon.
esty and integrity, and without ex-
ception all swore to her purity up to
the time that the child's trouble with
Trego commenced.
The charge to the jury was made by
County Attorney Good, after which
the arguments for the defense was
made first by Attorney w. A. Lee,
who argued the case for an hour and
thirty minutes and his able address
was followed by Attorney G. F. Hans
