If you have been listening to all the
testimony and watching the demeanor
of the witnesses you cannot but feci
that the defense has for some reason
-not attacked the substantial aUega--
ations of the prosecution.
We have listened for six days , to
.; Richardson failing in his assault upon
Orchard. Ws have heard Clarence Dar
! row tell the jury that the killings and
.- wreckings in Colorado and Coeur d'Al
1 f enes were the result and also were not
the result of a mineowners' conspiracy.

' tlal law In TaUurids and Cripple Creek
'described to weariness. We have list-i
v ened to people telling the court and thej

Yesterday , ws were deluged by the
. -.. a opened flood gates of "General" Eng-
f ley's eloquence. That gentleman was ons
time attorney general of Colorado. I do
not want to recall painful memories to
J. the people of that great state; but yes
. terday ws too suffered from one long,
' fearful hour of Engleyltla. And bad
as all of us are' none of us -deserve
i that. ' It seems to havs been peculiar to
the episodes of Engley in ISOakthat hs
- i wss arrested every 4t hoursby the
i brutal military. That being arrested he
j confronted his tyrants and appealed in
i splendid eloquence to the spirit of eter-
nal liberty. That having said his say ns
f laughed "ha, ha," in the faces of despot
Ism and . defied them. That having so j
laughed and defied them he walked away
S with that corporal's guard like any
i other quits common man.' He seemed
' to ' have been deported so often that

Clifford was the first witness for the

tho American sailors In those days were
Ood-fearlng men they concluded to have
the real celebration on the following
day. Captain Charles Wilkes, hero of
the famous "Trent" Incident 20 years
later, which nearly Involved America
and England In war, was In command
of the Pacific fleet of the slender Amer
ican navy. His squadron comprised the
ships Vlncennes and Peacock, the brig
Porpoise and ths tender Flying Fish.-
Captain Mountain was assigned to the
Peacock. The squadron dropped anchor
In Nlsqually bay In June and the cele
bration the following Fourth Is well de
scribed In the captain's own words:
"Wishing to give the crew a holiday
on the anniversary of the declaration
of our Independence and to allow them
to have a full day's frolic and pleasure
they were allowed to barbecue an ox,
which the company's agent obligingly
sold to nas. They were permitted to
make their own arrangements for the
celebration, which they conducted In the
following manner:

"Ths place chosen for the purpose
was a corner of the Mission prairie.
(This was the prairie upon which Mr.
Richmond and William H. Wlllson had
established the Puget Sound missionary
station. This station was a few hun
dred yards from Fort Nlsqually). Here
they slaughtered their ox and spitted
him on a sapling supported over tho
fire which was made in a trench. The
carcass could thus be readily turned
and a committee of the crew was ap
pointed to cook him.

New York, July 8.The school au
thorities of New Tork have had their
attention called to an invention called
the ergograph, - which Is warranted to
determine correctly the real cause for a
pupil's backwardness In his studies.
When the dunce of the class remarks
casually that two and two make five,
the horror-struck teacher need no longer
throw the black-board at him. Instead
hs can test him by the ergograph, and
find whether over-studv or too much
play Is the cause of the disaster. The
new instrument Is a Oerman invention
and Is said to have been tried success
fully in the London schools. The glow
ing reports of Its euooess may lead to
Its adoption for the . schools of New
York and other American cities.

REFERENDUM RIGHTS
(Continued f rorr. Page One.)
The great human question human happiness is reverberating
from oerion to person down the Ions corridors of timeXsnd
surely to add a bit of happiness to a life is the highest attain
ment. "Are you happy? a reasonable query, "Is there not.
something that will make you happyr A piano, pernspsf a
chance to buy one without cramping your means r You see
it csn reed on and on indefinitely and every time you see
the phrase, "Are you happy?" a new set of speculations would
follow within one's brain.
"We strike the popular chord." Do you know, it's a great deal to be
popular. It means everything; for popularity that is perma
nent must of necessity be based on merit. It tells the whole
story,
jj "We Uve to win and would die to please." This is a little strong, per
li haps, but is catchily worded and conveys a determined house
poucy.
"From Factory to Parlor." This phrase shows the influence of our
own well known slogan, "From maker to player," and but for
, that would certainly stand among the picked ones.
"Music Providers; Profit Dividers." This is exactly desoriptive of
our method of selling; that is, we do away with the middle
men's profit, and thus the additional price that usually goes
into a seller's pocket reverts to the buyer.
"The Hearthstone of Music" is beautiful as a phrase and gives very
concisely our position in the northwest, as sellers at prices
that put pianos into the humblest homes.
"The gods themselves played on a reed." That's one of the neatest
uses of our name that has been submitted.
"Quality is remembered after price Is forrotten." This level-headed
young woman gets right down to the truth of the matter; at H
the time we all appreciate getting a bargain, but it's the value H
that holds tn the long run. And it s the vslue that makes
Reed-French the popular piano house.
We'll close with this amusing sally from a young woman whose
pen runs verseward with unusually good effect:
"I've worried my brain till I'm nearly insane
In trying to think of terse phrases. .
I've worked on your ad till I've nearly gortemad,
And I've thought of . Reed-French in all phases.
I've asked every one almost under the sun, '
Their reason fof buying pianos. '..-.
...,, ., !' m m ' " . - ..
I've read sayings' witty arid hunted the city . '
For posters on how, to write ads; .
I've watched players plenty and jotted down twenty
Of their most eccentric fads.
My friends pass me grinning, they ssy I am thinning,
My notebook and pencil they guy, $
I'm never without it, for if an idea sprouted
And I should forget it, I'd die.
At night I've lain sleeping; I've seen something peeping
Two hundred half dollars or so.
They cry "Come and take me," O, won't some one wake me?
You win in your sleep to your woel
I
esse
Now my pen hss grown rusty. My brains tired and musty,
I'm surely played out, so must diet
I think 'twould be fine on my tomb to put this sign:
"REED-FRENCH, ALL YE WHO PASS, BUY!"
.
Oh, there are such lots of cleevr, witty, humorous, interesting
letters, phrases, suggestions, etc But we must get back to that prise
decision. A positive announcement tomorrow.
