the legislator and other public
officials. v . '
"I hare placed the informa
tion before the grand jury, and
it to now op to the Jnry and to
District ' Attorney Slsemcre-,".
waa the Judge's comment; Ho
did not indicate his reaction to
Botvln'! suggestion that his at-
- tack on Boirin be made off the
bench.
The nature of Judge Ashurefs
remarka about Boivin's legislative
career made it inevitable that
they would assume political sig
nificance. : He attacked the legis
lator for being connected with the
Southern Pacific in a legal way
while serving in the legislature,
and indicated that this was in
imical to the: legislative aims of
railroad labor.- m -:.
In this connection,' it was
learned that Boivir had received
me enaorsemem or me raiiroaa
labor organlsationa in hla cam
paigns tor-tne legiBtaiure ana u
was asserted by Bolvin's friends
tbat railroad labor men knew at
the time be was endorsed that he
was an attorney for the company.
The tense situation has many
angles that appear likely to bring
developments in the coming
weeks.
Meanwhile the grand Jury con
tinued its secret studies of crim
inal matters placed before it by
. District Attorney L. Orth Slse-
more. Tuesday the Jurors were
taken from the courthouse in a
car, apparently to interview a
witness who waa ill and unable
to come to the courthouse. ,
