In answering the question Of why
they tried these seven men and NOT
others. Mr.. Dawson said that they
picked these seven men so that each
class represented by these men
might "understand and know that
the laws of Colorado are clear enough
and the arm of colorado's law is
strong enough and long enough tc
go out and reach any man who at.
tempts to defy the law"
To the assertion by the defense
that the prosecution was trying the
case on what Lawson and Doyle did.
the speaker read the telegrams, In
tsrviews and other press matters
which these men had sent out over
tile state for the alleged purpose %
melting the people and clinched his
argument by stating that these tele-
grams and interviews had much to
do with the bringing about of the
Chandler trouble.

Following this interesting and
truthful commentary on our laws, Mr..
Dawson took up at length the argu.
ments brought out by the defense in
favor of the defendants and agalns.
Albert seip. the prosecution w.treas
who turned states evidence.
seip's Testimony
Mr.. Dawson said that they conced-
ed that Seip's reputation for truth
and veracity was bad and that he could
stand as impeached, but he contended
that the court had instructed the
jury that while witness may be i'm
Ieached. his testimony is only dis
credited in case it is not corroborat-
ed by other credible testimony. And
Nr. Dawson took from the evidence
submitted ample proof that Seip
bad been corroborated by Matt Gra-
ham himself, and other witnesses for
the defense. in many of the salient
points to which Seip had testified,
such as the number who were present
a: the Friday meeting in Florence and
the number who voted to go and take
Chandler and other features.
The speaker then touched upon the
various testimony given in defenes Of

CLYDE 6. DAWSON, IN
A POWERFUL ARGUMENT,
CLOSES CHANDLER CASE

Clyde 9. Dawson. who made the
closing argument in the Chandler
case began his introduction Thurs
day afternoon at three O'Clock and
finished at $3.50. The case went to
the jury at $40.
Mr. Dawson's talk was ntting
climax to remarkable trial The
speakers wonderful talent for grasp
ing the subtle and hidden meaning Of
many of the actions on the part of
the opposition. his -eloquence, keen
analysis. forceful expression and
sound logic all combined to make his
enort the best by far OF all those
which had preceded him. And with

on the counsel for the defense but

The Dancing BUD.

With the mercury perforating Glti-
tude records and leisure lovers
inClining to hammocks and shady
groves rather than cabarets, it is
natural to hear that the dancing
craze has subsidized, but has it?
Dancing is an expression of youth
full exuberance and thermometers in
the nineties have no terrors for the
fair youth Of both sexes. Let a popu.
lar trot, hesitation or one-step, break
forth upon any occasion, where a
floor is accessible, and hot weather
will not deter. In fact, the summer
dance continues as a feature of mid.
summer festivity as it has in all ages.
Possibly the rotund devotees of the
past two years, who have tangoed
and hesitated and marked in an age
less renaissance of frivolity. may
mend their ways, but youth will
| dance with grace and beauty in all
cycles of existence, lame ducks, griZ-
Fly bears and wishbone wiggles to
the contrary nevertheless.
Some of the more grotesque and
graceless dances will disappear
Surely some have neither beauty, ex-
pressiveness nor decency to recon-
mend them. but dancing will con
tinue, possibly as a modified craze,
but more likely as a somewhat purple
and passionate expression of lusty
youth, fadeless beauty and natural
grace.
We may think with Beaumont and
Fletcher, Shakespeare and few 9th
er somewhat noted observers of the
human comedy, that our dancing
days are DONE" but, antedating such
modernists, we have the words of the
Preacher, the son of David, who pre-
faced his book with the declaration,
Vanity of vanities, all is vanity yet
demonstrated his humanity in recog-
nizing "a time to weep and q time
to laugh; a time to mourn and a time
to dance"
Unquestionably the time to darce
is when one feels like it and the oc-
casion permits. cage cannot wither,
nor custom STALE" the infinite varie-
ty" of the dance, but let us hope we
may have few places, next winter,
where food and drink may be procur-
ed without paying for dancing.
We have surely come rather far
since dancing was a sacred express
sive art, and the rough embraces of
the average dancing floor are sadly
removed from the delicate art Of Paw
Iowa or even the extreme deXterity
of the Vernon Castles The anatomi
cal marvels of the hula and the
muscle dance, the wild abandon of
the Apache, the suggestiveness of the
Spaniard and the daring acrobatics of
Gaby Deslys are well enough as ma
tional expression but let us not be so
cosmopolitan as to endeayor to adapt
them all to the modern dance!

LIME FOR LANE

II was talking with a marriage Ii
cense clerk in Chicago who had been
on the job for several years, and he
said the same conditions prevailed
there-at least 10 men asking for re-
marriage to one woman.
81 have asked women for their eX
PLANTATION of this and they said it was
perfectly simple. Why, they asked
me, should q woman want to be a
slave to man, except for love, and
that is what marriage is to woman!
A woman can never love but once
and when she loses her first husband
she has become acquainted with al
the hardships of marriage. She will
not marry again, because she wants
to avoid these hardships.'
"a woman nowadays can support
herself and her children with little
help from relatives and friends. She
can care for her own children as a
man could not. so one reason why
men remarry is eliminated. Again
women don't need anybody TO cook
or sew for them. Reason No
gone And with those two reasons
gone, the main cause of loneliness
are gone. This is condition that
will grow, rather than diminish. =
