There is no doubt that Mr. Bonar Law still hopes for eventual reconciliation with those Conservative leadra who remain ed faithful to Lloyd George and. the real motive for the wish to heal the split in the party is the hope of countering labor's expect ed attack on. property.

A host of witnesses gave their testimony in the circuit court Tuesday in the case of Willam ette Valley Flax & Hemp, Growers Cooperative association vs. A. E Bradley of Ausmville. The association Bned for the de livery of the flax grown on 80 acres of land and contracted, to the, association dast spring when the co-operative organization was formed. The testimony covered the organization of the assocla tion, the contracts, the crop sea son, the marketing, and - every thing pertaining to the case, and was finished Tuesday evening.. t Argument will be made on the case at the first open date In the court calendar, which is expected to be some time this week. The shortage of the crop because of the drought this year worked havoc with many growers, but this is the only suit brought for re f usal to deliver to the organiza tion contract.

Henry Wilkins, excitedly turning toward the jury under the 6t,ress of a relentless cross-examination n his trial on a charge Of hay ing murdered his wile, admitted today an undue friendship - with his wife's sister, Miss Helen Lange, This friendship, he said, was the reason he had concealed toe fact of a secret meeting a few days after the slaying of hit wife with a man whom he found later to be Robert Castor brother of Arthur Castor, the state's chle: witness. Robert Castor offered to prevent, Wilkens testified, for consideration of So,M the name of the woman in tne case from becoming public. Temptation Gets Him The defendant said he yielded to temptation but later confessed his misdeeds to his wife when she tiled' suit for divorce. . Mrs. Wil kins. according to Wilkins. was afraid the affair would be feveal- de In the divorce proceedings. The result was . a reconsillation, he said, which "however, did not please Miss Lange." , In the morning session of the trial Wilkin broke down under the searching questions of Leo Frfiedman asgistantxdUtrict attor ney and a recess of court was or dered, to enable him to recover his composure. He choked up with sobs when asked to go oyer again the story of the1 death of his wife and was unable to talk The defendant admitted giving previous testimony in . the police court and to .the district attorney at variance with his statements on the winess sand today. Castors are Suspected "Do you believe from what you have heard in court here that the Castors were concerned tn the holdup in which your wife was killed?" asked Friedman. I am satisfied now they par ticipated in it," replied Wilkins, who has contended that he did not know who the slayers were. Cross-examination of the defen dant will take at least another half day, the- prosecution an nounced. , Morning Testimony Lengthy The morning session was large ly taken up with testimony rer garding an Interview between Wilkins and William F, Herron, Arthur Castor's attorney, on a bad check charge. As a result of Herrin's representations about his influence with the district at torney, the police and the press Wilkens said he gave Herron liop for "protection." ,. ; . ' ' -V , A Adclo Garrison's New Phase, of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE CHAPTER 151 HOW MADGE .AND MOTHER GRAHAM GAVE EACH OTH ER A SHOCK. ; "Margaret, o you know what Richard is up to," My mother-in-law came into the little living room of the cottago where I was repairing a rent which my gown had received in etepplng out of the carriage- the night before when coming home from the Paige dinner. Junior was seated on the floor near me, play ing with a string of empty spools I always keep in my work basket to amuse him with when I sew I know that his grandmother was unusually perturbed, for she neither stopped to caress him, nor found faults with anything about him, two almost invariable pro-' ceedings with her when coming near him. ! I looked np, smiling, for I gen erally find I her mountains con cerning Dicky or Junior to be very small molehills. "I haven't, the slightest idea," said. "Indeed, I haven't seen Dicky this morning. He tvasn up when I breakfasted." I didn't add that I had forced myself to waken early, and had dressed with extreme caution in order to breakfast before my sul ky husband, Sand had kept put of Ms way ever since. Dicky Writes Some Letters. For Dicky: had returned from tho Paige dinner in high dudgeon, and, except an occasional word to his mother, had sat stonily silenVj during the drive home. I knew, of course, what was the matter his oTerhearing of MaJ. Grantland's confidential undertone, without knowing the words ' uttered. Rat I, conscious of no word or action at which he could cavil ever so little, equally conscious of his marked attention to Edith. Fair fax during the entire evening, had made no effdttvto conciliate him. We had not spoken to ach other since, but, of i course, that, was something I didn't care to tell my husband's mother.- "Good reason why you haven't seen him!" she retorted tartly. ivHe'i been In. my- room writing mm 1 letters till I'm nearly eraty from thai clicking typewriter ol bis-. I wish the pesky things had never beea InTented. "People wouldn't write; so much foolishness if they had to do it with a pen." "He must have suddenly been convicted of his epistolary sins, and be making up for lost time." urged reassuringly. "You know Dicky js probably the worst cor respondent in the known world." "All of that," she said. ' But he isn't writing to his friends this trip. He's got a New York class ified telephone directory from the hotel, and he's writing letters to all the real estate firms in the city. I saw some addresses." I dropped my sewing, looked up at her with astonished eyes. Mother Graham Is Aroused. "Real estate firms! Whatever in the world?" .' I thought you'd open your eyes," she said grimly. "I've tried to get a peek at what he's writ ing, but he's as close and careful as a clam about it. Have yea anjTidea what he's doing?" I shook my head doubtfully. "I can't think of anything," I said. ''Unless " I stopped short, for into my brain had flashed a fantastic no tion born of a memory of the night before when Dicky had leaned forward at the sight of the stately old-fashioned Paige home stead with its "blow-a-way" and colonial pillars, and had murmur ed with his soul in his eyes, "I'm going to have a house like that' "Unless what?" snapped my mother-in-law. "Don't sit there like a. stoten bottle. If you've got anything to say, say it if you haven't, say that and shut up." I had no intention of confiding to my mother-in-law the bizarre notion which had occured to me, but I had to supply her aroused curiosity with something, so I went on casually: : "He might be thinking of renting the house furnished while we are down here; Many people do it, I understand." Mother Gra ham gasped and turned pale. i "Margaret! You're crazy! WJth all my things! I sliaU go to Rich ard this minute." " I smiled at the; way in which she said "my things," with never a. thought for any other furniture the house might contain, but -1 caught her dress a3 she rushed toward the door! : "Mother! Remember that is only a guess on my part. Don't tell Dicky I said it." . She tore herself loose, but flung a reassurance over her shoulder as she ran out: i' Jll not bring you Into It. But I'll attend to Richard." , . (To be continued.) TO BE ACCEPTED Five Central American Gov ernments Agreeable to Washington Parley WASHINGTON, Oct. 24. (By the H: Associated Press) Informal communications front the five central American governments In vited by the United States to meet in conference here jin December for discussion of arms limitation projects and othe'r matters, indi cated early acceptance of the in vitations and appointment of the five delegations. ! There is no doubt that Secre tary Hughes' action, taken as it was virtually at the request of the five governments! has been re ceived in Central America with gratification. , Formal acceptance in some cases may b delayed by the necessity of securing approval of either cabinet of congress. The American invitation occu pied attention in Pan-American diplomatic circles today to the ex clusion of other topics. Both among the diplomats and in gov. ernment circles, the feeling pre vails that a step has been taken which may bring results of a far reaching" nature with respect to international relations in the en tire western hemisphere. Wheth er the Central American confer ence will prove a stepping stone to subsequent treatment of all Pan-American problems in a sim ilar way, it was said, must rest upon the work of the Central Am erican delegations when thev gather in Washington in Decem ber.

' UTAH wfcDNESDAY MORNING, SABOTAGE IS WIDELY USED Wobblies no Longer Print Instructions, But Pass j Them Orally SAfcRAMEXTO, Oct. 24 Testi mony that the Industrial Work ers o the i World no longer teach sabotage in books and pamphlets but p iss thie instructions by "word of mjuth"! was given in superior courtshere today by W.

Townend was a surprise Witness foe lilje prosecution of ten admit ted n embers of the organization who fire on trial, charged with iolaton qt the California crim inal syndicalism law. Sabotage Against Government Tornsend was on the stand most jbf tho day. He testified that he, a$ a trusted assistant cf Hay wood had obtained employment on atj least two railroads during the World war, with instructions to blw them up; that he had served in various branches of tho military service, including the ma rines iat Mare Island ,Cal., that during the war, several hundred members were employed at a Chicago packing house, where many j of them, acting as lnspec tors, passed canned meats, he said were -unfit for consumption and likely; would poison the troops in Francfe for whom they were de stined, and. that the I. W. W. car ried On an extensive system of sabotage in the harvest fields of tho middle west. Harvesters Destroyed In their sabotage of harvest fields! Townsend testified, ; har vesters were destroyed, hay fields fired land harvested wheat often destroyed by placing the bundles of wheat upside down so the ker nels of wheat drew moisture from tho ground and sprouted. Alllthe acts of sabotage. Town send delated on the stand, are part of a general plan and crews of men are assigned to the work of destruction. Townsend testified that during tne period he belonged to the I W. W from 1909 to 1921, he had joinedj various branches of the mdlita.ry service eleven times. In leply to questions by Assist ant piatrict Attorney Romeo Hughes relative to the desire of Haywod to control the fighting branches of the service Townsend testified: liaywood Proud of Him "Haywood complimented me on my wdrk while in the army, navy J ? 3 ' . . . . V'u iiiitrtues. ana ,ne iota ma mat it was: important to control Uncle Sam's Igun men. Another time he said: Ut I had 50.00Q men like you I would show this damned country what I could do. " During his testimony Townsend related; how Sabotage is carried on in the, lumber districts of the northwest. He repeated testimony that has been given at other trials. that spikes are driven into lots so that) they will destroy the saws in the1 mills. Townsend declared that he had worked in the lumber camps, where sabotage was prac ticed. EDITORIALS OF THE PEOPLE The School Bill Editor Statesman: Where are we drifting? We read of agitation in certain fctates for laws to compel the teaching of the Bible in the pub lic schools; in others tne teach ing of unScriptural science is compulsory which will result in a sure crop of infidels. Now, we learn that an attempt is being made, in some states to close all private schools, and compel all children of the first eicht rraiM to attend the public schools. This proposed measure is hnR. tile to the rights of every Ameri can citizen, and is not in accord with the guaranties of civil and religious liberty vouchsafed to every individual citizen unrir nr federal constitution. The state has a right to re quire all its citizens to receive a. certain amount of intellectual tramtng in- the fundamentals of good citizenship; but the state does not have the right to say where the child of a parent shall be educated, or the precise road that shall be followed in reaching the intellectual standard set up by th state. The state may pre scribe'eertain fundamental Studies but it cannot dictate the precise textbooks and formulas of the eurriculm. Likewise, the state haa a right to require a definite amount of preparatory training on the part of those who shall con stitute tho public and private teachers offthe children in its do main. The state has a right to test the Intellect, but it does not have the right to shape the intel lect without the consent of the parent, who has the first claim upon the child. The parent, and not the state, haa a right to decide the charac ter of education the child is to re ceivewhether it is to be partly OCTOBER 25, 1922 re:igioTis,tr -altogether secular. The public BcJioals, whica ax under the direct supervision of the state, cannot Impart spiritual or religious instruction. If, ,thera- fore, a parent or a denomination desires to give a child not only physical and intellectual training, but spiritual instruction also, the state should welcome such a plan rather than deter it. Because, as a rifle, the child that is instruct ed in spiritual th'rngs 'as well as secular matters, makes a better citizen than one whose education has been purely secular. We should not forget that our forefathers who founded -this great Republic, and who framed for us our constitutional laws, and gave us ou ideals of true Ameri canism, were all educated in pri vate schools. For more than fifty years after the founding of our Republic, we were without any public school system, and our gov ernment was maintained and prospered, and all its citizens who received any' education, were trained in' private schools. This proves conclusively that private 'schools, even without the super vision of the state, are not detri mental to good government, and are capable of producing the high. eet and noblest type of patriotic citizens. However good the public school system may be , It may attempt to train useful and loyal citizens for this world . only. The Christian school will do all this, and be sides give a spiritual training for citizenship in the world to come Plato said, "A good education is that which gives' to the .body and to the soul all the perfection of which they are capable." If the wise parent prefers to give his child this more complete educa tion- at his own expense, why should anyono object? . The growing tendency on the part of some to obliterate person al freedom in matters of religion is greatly to be deplored. ' Every American parent as such should rise up in defense of his inalienable right.7 Every 1 true lover of liberty and of the ideals of true Americanism should, work earnestly, setting before the peo ple the principles involved in this issue, and present an effectual protest against the encroachments upon the rights of conscience and the grant of religious liberty. Unless this is done with, all diligence, we will awake some not far distant day to the fact that we have lost the dearly bought liberty of which we have boasted, and have drifted back to the methods employed, by the Dark Ages. .
