OE TELEGRAPHERS
MAKES STATEMENT
SHT PERSONS WERE
KILLED BY DYNAMITE
ERN DEMOCRACY.
{Congressman L. F. Livingston, of
(Teorgla, scouts the suggestion of the
Democrats running a Southern man for
the Presidency. "All this favorite son
£al]c has nothing to do with success,”
he eays. He does not believe "we
neon id win with any of the favorite
gone." "The Democratic party must
make sacrifices," and “if we cann"t
win with a Southern man. I would
flavor nominating a Northerner.” • •
"The Democratic party is Just now
cnore In need of common sense and a
Jittla practical politics than anything
etee.”
All thle apropos of his conclusion
that "with Hearst bent on running at
the head of the Independence League
ticket." Bryan, whose chances of
cese with a united Democracy are gen
erally conceded to bo hopeless, will
realise it himself and decline the par
ty nomination.
In view of this condition of impo-
tency to which Northern leadership has
reduced us, Mr. Livingston would ‘have
Democracy—Southern Democracy, in
fact'—make some more sacrifices and
eelect some other forlorn hope of a
Northern leader. But would that he
"common sense" and "practical poli
tic*” for the Southern Democracy?
For forty years the Southern Democ
racy has followed Northern leadership
in a aeries of well-nigh unbroken dis
asters. For forty years the South has
been practically shut out of her share
of the benefits of the common Govern- I
ment. For forty years she lias had
little or no voice in filling the Federal
offices. With steadfast fidelity and
unwavering courage she has on each
occasion marched with solid, unbroken
ranks to the slaughter. To what end?
Today, forty years after she succumbed
in the contest of arms, with a divided
Republican party, drunk with un
checked victories and honeycombed
with corruption, the national Demo
cratic party stands confessedly more
hopeless and helpless than at any for
mer stage of its career. Its present a
"Northern” leader, who has twice failed
to carry the country: who cannot carry
his own State: who cannot hold his
nearest, most courted and coddled po
litical friend to the fortunes of his
party, stands debating, according to
Mr. Livingston, whether he will de
cline the nomination at the last mo
ment after having discouraged with
faint approval all talk of "favorite
sons” or other candidates.
In short, the Southern Democracy is
asked once more with its eyes open to
a-nlk through a slaughter house into
an open grave. The hope. little or
much, that has formerly buoyed It, is
this time denied. Success is un
dreamed of. Defeat is a foregone con
clusion. But the South must not pre
sume to indulge in the melancholy
pleasure of honoring Its own leaders.
Never. It must still array itself un
der the banner of some alien pretender
to Democracy Who is a stranger even
to the principles of Democracy as we
understand them.
Now what would be "common senae”
■and "practical politics." leaving out all
question of party integrity and politi
cal principles, in a situation like this?
Why. nothing more or less than just
the nomination of a Southern Demo
cratic lewder on a sound Democratic
platform. Next to being in the ma
jority. a solidified and unified minority
which would act together on clearly de
fined lines and which would hold the
balance of power between two or more
discordant parties or factions in the
nation would receive moat considera
tion and become the most potent fac
tor. Let the Northern Democrats who
do not want to vote for a Southern
Democrat slough off If they choose.
T.et the North divide up in two parties
without regard to the South if need be.
The Southern Democracy established
on traditional and historical Demo
cratic principles will become a power
to be considered and dealt with.
Sooner or later it will attract to it all
the following In the country that real-
ires the safety of popular Government
depends on a return to first principles.
And whether it win national election*
or not. it will be in a position, like the

to say that he would prefer to continue

that the recount would harm rather
than forward his plans for establishing

States.

for Butte shortly afterwards because
he feared the mine owners’ “black

employes of the Bunkerhill had sent to
Governor McConnell protesting against
the unsafety of the mine.
Borah showed that the petition had
been presented six years before, and
that Butte was a fedsration camp,
where the black list was ineffective.
Passing to the alleged threat that Or
chard made against Steunenberg. the
witness was unable to recall what any
one had said on that occasion except
the words of Orchard. Davis will re
turn to the stand tomorrow.
Mrs. Lottie Day. of Denver, testified
that in 1904 Orchard told her about the
loss of his interest in the Hercules
mine, and said that he would kill Steu
nenberg for the wrong done him.
John D. Elliott, an old soldier, swore
that Orchard told him on a train In
Idaho in the fall of 1905 that Orchard
was in the employment of the mine
owners, and that there was a plot
against the federation and its leaders.
Cross-examination showed that Elliott
had twice been In an insane asylum
with a mind unbalanced by family
troubles.
John M. O'Neill, editor of the Min
ers’ Magazine, testified that Orchard
came to his office early in 1905 and
asked for the addresses of Governor
Peabody and General Sherman Bell,
who. he said, would be "bumped off.”
O’Neill said that he referred Orchard
to a city directory. The State used
the cross-examination of O’Neill to
make it clear that the magazine was
the official organ of the federation and
expressed the federation views, and to
read to the jury from the magazine
some sneering articles about the death
of'Steunenberg. O'Neill also said that
he had seen Orchard at federation
headquarters several time, and that
Steve Adams and Mrs. Adams had
also been there.
Something that may turn out to be
clue of importance has at last turned up
in the Dyehe murder case.
A piece of trimming, the kind used on
feminine's garments, has been found near
the scene of the crime. H. B. Evans
a friend of the dead man. found it. Of
fleers at 2-0rk on the case have conferred
with a negro woman’who does washing
for several persons who have been under
suspicion in the case, and the bit of lace
fits exactly in a rent In an underskirt
belonging to one of them. This may lead
an arrest today, it being sufficient
evidence to hold a prisoner on suspicion,
A man friend of the woman, whose Iden
tity is known to the authorities, was seen
boarding a car at the Union station the
night of the murder: this man will be
traced, and his arrest may follow.
Yesterday it was rumored tl|t warrants
were sworn out for a negro man and
woman said to be suspected. If this I
true, they will be arrested today. It is
said that the Sheriff has a special de
tective working on the case and the fact
that he took his first rest since the mur
der yesterday seems to confirm the re
port.
If the man who was seen to go away
on the train the night of the murder is
the one who killed Dyehe. it is probable
that by this time he is beyond reach.

The future political intentions of

tho part of national Democrats. The
uncertainty as to wheather Hearst still
