MAX MALICH, ON WITNESS 8TAND,
CONTRAOICT8 ORCHAR0'S:
TESTIMONY.
REFUSED TO AID IN
BLOWING UP HOTEU
Declare* He Has No Knowledge of
"Pettibone" Dope"—Brother of De
tective McParland Tells of HI*
a
Eviction from Victor.
Boise, Idaho, July 3.—Max Malich,
Another of the men implicated by the
testimony, of Harry Orchard, made his
appearance Tuesday as a witness in
behalf of William D. Haywood, on trial
for the murder of former Gov. Steun
enberg. He directly contradicted all
of Orchard's story relating to him.
Malich' was the leader of the Austrian
smelter workers at Globeville and con
ducted a saloon and store and hotel
there during th$ strike. Orchard tes
tified that Malich proposed to him
that he dynamite a hotel at Globevlll^,
filled with nonunion men and offered
him 9100 to "blow up the store of Wil
liam McDonald, a business rival, and
privately informed the prosecution
that Malich had bftrned himself with
"Pettibone dope" while preparing to
burn his own store, and had later
burned his store with "Pettibone
dope," and that Malich had agreed to
help him with an. alibi when he killed
Detective Lyte' Gregory.
Malich swore that Orchard had pro
posed destroying the nonunion hotel
and the killing of McDonald and that
he had refused to-'haVe anything to
do with either crime. He also denied
all knowledge of "Pettibone dope" or
use in his store and swore that
Orchard told him that but for Gov.
Steunenberg he would be a rich man
and that he would kill him.
Brother of Detective on Stand.
An interesting witness called
just
-•before court adjourned, was Edward
^McParland, a brother of Capt James
McParland, the head of the western
division of the Pinkerton agency, who
jhas been in charge of securing evi
dence for the state. McParland gave
a graphic description of his de
portation from Victor when he was a
shoemaker at the time of the Hots.
He swore that he was subjected to
many Indignities and sent away
from
the town with other men.
The witness said he was not a mem-,
jber of the Westeri Federation of
Miners, but a shoemaker by trade.
He was at work in his shop in Vic
tor the day of the riot there follow-^
Jng the Independence depo't explo
sion. After the shooting started Mc
Parland /said five men came to his
phop and said they wanted him. He
was marched between lines of sol
diers to the train and taken to Colo
rado Springs, where he and several
'hundred miners were transferred to
the Santa Pe road and taken toi with
in a short distance of the Kansas
line. The engineer of the train re
fused to take the men across the state,
line. ...
"After we left the train three Vol
leys were fired over our heads and
yre were told to never come back,"
paid McParland "We went into the
fields for sonpe time, when along came
a train which slowed dbwn. The en
gineer asked us if we were the de
ported men. He then told us to get
aboard, and he took us into Holly, Col.,
where we remained for some time."
"Did you ever go back to Vic
tor?" .1
"No, sir."
On cross-examination McParland
said he could not identify any one
jwho did any shooting in the Victor
A^riots.
1 At this point luncheon recess until
1:30 p. m. was taken.
New Feature in Case Promised.
The visit of Orchard to Wallace,
where he swore he discussed with
Dave Coates, a former lieutenant gov
ernor of Colorado, and at, that time a
newspaper publisher at Wallace, On
,the subject of kidnaping one of
^August Paulson's children, will be
taken up next. Mr. Coates, who has
been here for several weeks, has
given out several interviews in which
he has denied Orchard's story abso
lutely and promised to develop some
new features in the case. He ^will
be closely cross-examined by the
state. It is from Wallace that the
(defense will commence the contradic
tion of Orchard so far as his story "of
#he murder, of Steunenberg is con
cerned. The effort'will be to show
ghat Orchard already having a private
grudge agginst Steunenberg, secured
•enough money from August Pauls*
to enable him to make a "get away"
jfcfter be killed Steunenberg bnt that
lie bungled his plans.

tion of the Mofaroe county saloon men
for a suspension of the injunction
against them issued recently by Judge

(©f
turns of Interest From Ottr Correspondent
tbe Stat* Capital.-
The application was presented In
the morning by N. E. Kendall, speaker
of the house, ana was resisted byA£
torney J. A.'Baker of Centerville. I
It was contended by Speaker Ken
dall that it was inequitable to stop
the saloons frqm doing business, pend
ing the decision of the court of last
resort.
General Baker contended that the
saloons actually had no right to do
business at all, except by suffrance,
which might legally be suspended by
the court pending final determination
of the right of the saloons to run at
all.
It is supposed that the case will
be decided within a short time by
Judge Blshop^-as the saloons at Albla
are now closed and if they have to
remain closed will: go out of business
altogether, in all probability.

Joint Rate Announced.
Des Moines.—An 80 per cent Joint
rate has been ordertd in by the' state
railroad commission.
Under the order of .the board the
"rate becomes effective July, 1, on all
commodities' and all classes -of
freight, on- all railroads and lnterur
bans.'
A tninlmum charge of 25 cents wa'B
fixed by the board also formerly-it
has been 50 cents to.Jl.
The deslre^of the railroads wa»
that the decision be postponed for
two months, but the commission over
ruled the request The railroads also
asked for a transfer, charge. This
was denied by the commission.
The new blanket joint rate does not
apply to distances'- '. of twenty-five
miles and under, but his affects only
a minimum of shipments whlcb.. run
no danger in competition. In any
event.

discriminatory, rates for a long time.'
It Is said, that the railroads will
not fight the order made by the board.
They were only disappointed that
they could not induce- delay in' pro

WMI Go After
Weeds.
How-- to rid- Iowa of weeds Is the
subject under consideration of the
pure food committee of the state de
partment ot agriculture. It has a di
rect bearing on pure food. Last win
ter the legislature passed' a law pro
hibiting the mixture of Weed'seeds
with seeds df grains and grasses.- It
the seeds» are. planted together, the
graln'- a,nd weeds -will be harvested
together.
Governor Packard of Marshalltown,
Professor Curtiss of Ames college and
State Dairy.and Food Coibmlssioner
Wright are the .committee on pure
food of the state department of agri
culture. The committee -has been in
session at Ames on tbe question of
how to rid the state of weeds.
First of all ceine the roadsides. In
the roadside the weeds multiply in
the drainage hollows at each side of
tbe pike,
There is one lone law relative to.
weeds in the highways in this state,
It requires them
to
be cut once
a
year. Owing to that peculiar contra
diction of human nature jtrhich makes
mfen work against their
own
ests often, the weeds
inter­
are
usually
not cut till late in the falf, when they
are but husks and tailing 'neath the
blade, laugh at the reaper because
their seeds have been swept into the
fertile fields to
watt
for the-sunlight
of\ the springtime and the moisture
and the heat' Which will give them
the start, of the grain.
It is planned by tbe committee te
go after the weedsl Adequate legis
lation will be asked of the general as
sembly a year from next winter. In
the meantime a campaign of educa
tion will be undertaken that the peo
ple* may come to know that pure
grain cannot be made into pure food
if the grain is mixed with the seeds
of weeds in the first plaee. And tbe
source of tbe weeds-.ln Iowa and: of
the-adulteration of grain seed against
which legislation was. passed last win
ter are the weeds at the roadside.
Ice Cream Hit By Health Board.
Dr. Louis A. Thomas, secretary of

a stand against Ice cream. "Both
Ice and" cream," says the doctor, /'are

Cream Is most ^nourishing and ice in
a refrigerator Is a igreat '-preservative.
The stomach, however, is not a re
frigerator and its contents are not-to
be preserved. For Jbls reason the'
use of ice credm and the cold drinks
are for .those who live to eat. If they
must be used, however, too great

The Worth of Electric Railway.
Electric railways are often styled troi-.
ley. lines. ,Wh$n they ruj» from town to
town in Succession they ar%, fr6|iuently
styled interurban -lines. Call tKeqi wliai'
We may they ate railways of .which
electricity is the motor. They are fa-,
mijiar with thetr^in central Iowa. Be
low is a report from one of these that:
began its operation on Monday of last
week. It began at Des Moines andran
northward, with Fort Dodge as its ulti
mate destination. -It is completed tp.
Boone, a distance of therty-flve or more
miles in a straight line. This fact leads
the editor of .the Iowa State Register to
speak of these railways and tbeir worth
to those whom they touch and can serve.
We quote it in order to show what the
proposed Minneapolis, Rochester, De
corah and Dubuque line may be to all
persons and points it may touch.
NEW INTERURBAN LINE.
Beginning Monday, June 10, "the new
electric line between Boone and Des
Moines, Iowa, was opened for traffic,
opening up another short line to the
capital city for the farmers living along
this route. This road will be extended
immediately to Fort Dodge, malting the
longest electrical line in the state. This
new network of interurbans now being
built ihroughout'Iowa are going to be
of the greatest benefit to farmers in
that they give him the most excellent
passenger service at his very door and:
at all hours of the day, besides provid
itlg him with the very best of shipping
facilities at his farm crossing. Every,
electric line that crosses his farm or
runs near to it must necessarily great
enhance, its value. It provides a quick
market every day for their produce and
makes traveling between your home
and the city a matter of pleasure and
saves hours of time traveling by wagon.
Both passenger an'd freight schedules
are very reasonable, and we believe
that every ort'e of our readers should
foster these electric lines wherever and
whenever they can.
