Court House, Los Angeles, Cal.,
Oct. 11. When the actual trial of
James B. McNamara, alleged dyna
miter and cause of the explosion
which killed 21 persons In the Los
Angeles Times building on. October
1, 1910, began this afternoon it was
realized on both sides that the pro
ceedings were oni ya curtain-raiser-Even
the prosecution admits that
James B. McNamara was only a tool
in the alleged conspiracy. His con
viction, should It be possible, would
mean simply the prologue in the
drama which has for its object the
coupling of the Internatoinal Associ
ation of Structural Iron pnd Bridge
Workers with not only the destruc
tion of the Times building, but with
numerous dynamiting episodes cover
ing every section of the United
States.
That the defense realized this was
shown by the careful attitude taken
by the attorneys.
"We know that the state wants to
lay a foundation whereby Detective
Burns can makegood his charge that
organized labor Is ruled by the ter
rorists,'' said one of the defense law
yers. "But we have an absolutely
perfect defense," he added, "and are
convinced that we will secure an ac
quittal." o

SPLENDID
Miss Booth Greeted by Im
mense Crowd at the Grand
Opera House and Makes a
Strong Appeal for Religion.
INTRODUCED BY GOVERNOR
Audience Was Appreciative of Her
Power and Talents, Hut Disap
pointed in That She Did Not Give
a History of Salvation Army Work
in Which the Public Is Taking an
Ever-Growlng Interest Has the
Face of a Crusader.
Commander Booth was given a re
ception at the Grand last night that
must have made her heart beat fast
er. On the stage, besides Grand
Army people, were Oregon's young
governor, Secretary of State Olcott,
Theodore Roth, Max. Buren, Mr. Al
bert, Mr. McOllchrist and a dozen
other prominent Salem citizens and
In the big theater in front of her a
sea of faces greeted her with appre
ciative smiles, the building being
packed to capacity.
After a song followed a brief but
eloquent prayer by Brigadier Thomas
Stayton, and a solo by Major Erlck-
son In which he persuaded the audi
ence to Join In the chorus, with
hearty good will, Governor West In a
short but appropriate little talk, In
troduced the woman all had come to
see Commander Eva Booth.
Miss Booth during the preliminary
exercises, sat near the table on the
platform, chatting at times with the
Governor, who was on her right.
She Is of a different type than that
the reporter had expected, and prob
ably from what most of the audience
had Imagined her. She Is tall, wil
lowy and graceful in her movements,
self poised, and apparentfy without
self consciousness. Her features are
rather large her nose prominent,
lower face strong, as was probably
the forehead, but tills was under the
canopy .and covering of a pompa
dour. Her face reminded one of the
old crusaders. Strong, yet spiritual;
firm, yet kindly.
In a sense the big audience was
disappointed, for most of those pres
ent were there to learn of the work
of the Salvation Army from its lead
er. They wanted to know from her
the history of the movement, the
good It had accomplished. They
wanted to know and understand the
Salvation Army, and they were given
Instead, a sermon. It matters not
that It was a sermon by Miss Booth.
Most of us have our own faiths and
beliefs, our own Ideas about heaven
and the other place, and we can
hear these things ably discussed any
and every Sunday In our local
churches. Miss llooth's sermon was
strong her word painting fine, her
logic convincing, but It was not what
the audience turned out to hear, and
In this respect alone, was disap
pointing. Miss Booth has a pleasing manner,
a good delivery, a mobile and ex
pressive face anil a fine command of
language. Her voice, except whn
she talked with emphasis, is well
modulated, and she has It under splen
did control, ami when she puts on
the soft pedal, It is silvery sweet In
its cadences.
Nevertheless, Salem Is glad to have
had the opportunity to see and hear
her. and to express appreciation of
her, and the Salvation Army's great
work.
A dozen or more boys from the
prison attended the meeting, and at
its close, she walkd over to them,
shook hands and chatted a few mo
ments before being hurried off to her
train.
