In a recent lecture on Victor Hugo,

of associations that tho word awakens
for other ieoile, a great number of
words that rhyme with tho one first
thought of. Each of these brings Its
own associations of Ideas, and thus tho
poet'a mental Tlslon of wonla Is TaiUy
richer than that of persons who. think
of them only In their ordinary Individ

self a poet, believes also that the sound

CURSES ON THE RICH
Darrow Abuses Hlneowners and
Constitution.
CUiS ORCHARD A VILE THING
Haywood's lawyer Occupies Day by
Torrsnt of Invective Charges
Attempt to Kill Unions.
Boise, Idaho, July 25. Tho career
of Krank Steunenbcrg, the murdered
ex-governor of Idaho, was discussed
at some length by Clarence Darrow
yesterday In the courso ot his plea la
bebair or William D. Haywood. Justi
fying tho articles published In tho
Miners' Magazine, the official or (can
of tho Western Federation of Miners,
tho Chicago lawyer said tho action
of Steunenbcrg In asking for United
States troops to quell riot and tbo
establishment of martial law In 1899
was unjustlflablo and had properly
stirred up Immenso feeling In labor
circles against the governor.
Mr. narrow's argument, unfin
ished when court adjourned, devel
oped Into on appeal for labor as
QKOlnst canltal. and a denunciation
of all opposed to tbo unions. Ho hold
an audience startled and open-
mouthed as one after another tho
sentiments poured from his lips. His
attack on Orchard was expected, and
in this respect ho fulfilled and sur
passed tbo limit ot sensation. Tbreo
hours wero given to Orchard, and It
was only when vituperation, physi
cal forco and words wero spent that
Mr. Darrow now turned to James II.
Hawlcy,
Tho Stato ot Idaho camo In for a
largo share of Mr. Darrow'a denun
ciation for tho part It has played In
the prosecution. Culture, education
and wealth each In turn were de
scribed as constituting a combination
against which tho worklngmen, tho
uneducated and tho poor must over
bo opposed. Mr. Darrow sneered at
tho universities as purveyors ot cul
ture. "And what is a cultured man."
bo cried, "but a cruol tyrant al
ways T"
Reaching tho climax of his denun
ciation In sympathy for tho working
class and hatred for tho rich, ho as
sailed tho Constitution of tho coun
try, nnd cried:
"Tho Constitution! The Constitu
tion. It Is hero only to destroy tbo
laws mado for tho benefit ot the
poor."
Mr. Darrow's defenso of labor
unions nnd ot union men was pas
sionate and his eulogy ot tho West
ern Federation eloquent. Lovingly
he touched on tho beauty ot solf-sac-rtflco
found In tho "strugglo for hu
manity whero only tho worklngman
Is found," and then, with the bitter
est sarcasm, his volco pitched to tho
highest noto and urma unralsed, h
heaped abuso upon the selfish rich
nnd upon tho administration of tho
Stato ot Idaho.
