NEWBERRYDEFENSE
GETS A POOR START
Testimony Held as Highly I'm
portant" Is Ruled Out
by Court
IS CHARACTER WITNESSES

Grand Rapids. March 5.-Testimony
hich counsel for the defense charac-
terized as 'highly important was
ruled out at the start Of evidence In
behalf of the eighty FIVE defendants left
in the Newberry elections conspiracy
trial. Baked in this effort, the attor-
neys then put two defendants on the
stand, interlarding their testimony with
fifteen character witnesses.
The defense opened after Judge Clar-
ence w. Sessions had denied all mo-
tions for dismissal Of additional de-
fendants and had announced that the
government had established case sum :
cient to warrant a verdict Of guilty. IL
the jury saw fit to return one. Inc
court also held. incidentally, that 1t
would be possible for Senator Truman
H. Newberry. to be convicted or ac-
quilted without necessitating a similar
outcome of the cases of the other men.
At the outset the defense called
George e. Miller, editor in chief OF
the Detroit News. but failed to get
before the jury series OF letters ex-
changd by Mr.. Miller and Senator New :
berry In the early months Of 1913.
Martin w. Littleton and James o.
Murfin argued that the government had
charged that at the inception of the
Newberry candidacy there was "a con-
spiracy to purchase the United states
senatorship" and the former said the
letters would show Everything that
animated him" But Judge Sessions
held that the letters were "beside the
issue" and that the good faith Of the
candidacy was not in question.

Returned Wanderers From Europe
Don't Relish siurs on America
Almost the first question which met
me on my return from Europe was:
Didn't you just hate to come back
to American"
At first was astonished by the sheer
foolishness of the query. Didn't Amer
lea, then, know what Europe was like?
And for reply I gave laugh. Properly
Speaking il was not a real laugh. lt
was what is popularity termed a horse
laugh-though l never saw horse give
one. 1t is n vulgar, unrefined, hybrid
sort of laugh ranging between a snort
and hee -haw, and is employed 10
convey scorn. derision. contempt. l
realized at the time that as a complete
reply my rejoinder was not altogether
adequate. 1t was like those futurist
pictures-it left too much to the
imagination.
It needed an explanatory title. -.
Later n western man, a demobilized
captain whom / met out in the Rockies
in that wild. ragged big game country
round Jackson's Hole, Wyoming, ex-
pressed my laugh in words. An eastern
lady tourist, a romantic. sentimental
creature summering on dude rancn, /,
asked him the same. question which mad

better than America? Wasn't it more

fury dogs. their sabots clattering on

and running with all their might to keep
up with the dog? So quaint! Did he
now really and truly prefer to live in
grubby, prosaic America? Thus the
tourist lady of the dude ranch.
The man, seventy four inches OF

Something to Il, After All

The hostess bad talked about her
wonderful ancestry until her guests
were bored to distraction. No one made
any comments, but still she was deter
mined to win some. So she turned to
the young woman next to her and said :
Isn't it splendid to have an ancestry
of which one can be proud?"
The young woman. who was very
successful indeed. smiled and calmly
reioined: II really don't know. You
see I've been so busy all my life trying
to do something worth while so that my

that I've had very little time to hunt
information about them. ."-Easton Free

There is abundant evidence that the
