BATTLE OF LEGAL GIANTS ON AT BOISE Hah 'O'NYIIl, correspondent for the Denver Port and Oregon Dally Jour nal at Boise, writes the following graphic account, of a legal tourney between Senator Borah and Clarence Daxrow In the Haywood trial at Boise: Hi name was Harmon Cox. He had fought through the war from the beginning to end. His shoulders were stooped with years but his frame was macclbe and vigorous- and his mind active. The button of the Grand Army of the Republic glinted on his lapel. He had faced bloody death on the battlefield ninny times. He sat. In the back row of the Jurors' chairs In the court room this morn ing, his long, gray beard hanging on hli chest like the sporran of a High landers' kilt - The prosecution had passed him fr cause. He was a reasonable man and Just and hu would make a good Juror, but the defense did not want him at all. There had been a sort of strike lately In the office of the local telephone company. It did not amount to a great deal. The "hello" girls had gone out. Other girls had taken. their places. The daughter of Harmon Cox, soldier of the Grand Army ilf the Republic, was one of them. Therefore Harmon Cox was' not wanted by the defense. He had to be got rid of and Clar ence Darrow was to get rid of him. Tbe defense had only two peremptory challenges left. They were pilceless, beyond rubles. So clarence Durrow had ito prove Harmon Cox so Masetl apd pretuilk-ed ntralnst th" 'defendant Haywood" that he could not sit 'On the Jury, Darrow 'Is a verv unconventional person. He has been already per mitted by -the court to do many things that other men never attempt. So he sat at the counsel's table before iiu double line of jurors' chulrs and crossed his feet and spun his eye glasses between his fingers and look ed steadily at Harmon Cox of the Grand Army, .with dull eyes under peculiar brows. For some discern ible minutes the silence In the court room was heavy. The shades over the windows wese drawn down. The lights In the court room were dim. 4nd the lawyer of the defense commenced In a low, steady voice to prove out of his .own mouth that Harmon Cox of the Grand Army was i liar when he said he had no pre judice of any kind .against the de fendant. And Clarence Durrow failed. He ''I' too. He asked Harmon Cox iucstlnn . after ou-stlon. He trade speeches at him; He suggested things that never were in the mind of the Juror at all, and tried to convict him of holding them, and when he found It quite Impossi ble to prove that Harmon Cox was unfit for a juror he lost his temper, his face grew gray nnd damp with sweat; his voice grew husky. He did not cut any longer the pa thetic nnd heroic figure he has been cutting ever Blnce the case com menced. He came Into futile conflict with the court, and the conflict bruis ed him. He came Into contact with Borah of the prosecution, and Borah stung him tlmo and again, quickly, cleverely and mercilessly. For a moment Harmon Cox of the Grand Army was forgotten to watch the two chief tren who will fight this oase In their first grips. And the honors were all Borah's. Cool, collected, smiling, an untroubled man of the world, polled, scholarly and nlert he faced Darrow and met his verbal assault and parried It and side-stepped and slammed In sting ing, burning retorts that maddened Darrow and left him speechless. , It was a contest. of civilisation against tho cave man, and civilisation won. If It had been a fight with bare knuckles or, light gloves Instead of a contest of brains and wits and words, Clarence Darrow of Chicago would have been counted out In the first round. He did not succeed In disqualifying Harmon Cox; he lost his self-control. He came out of the conflict with Borah a sadly beaten gladiator, and all his "his brother counsel" turned their backs upon him, and stared angrily at 'the wall. It was a picturesque and dramatic episode and by it one caught a vivid glimpse cf the battle that will rage when this ease actually begins.
