statement. lie then reviewed the
history of tho dynntnlte conspiracy
um well ns tile evidence introduced,
and wild:
"This scheme or campaign «»f dy
namite was entered into and carried
on throughout the country from th©
Atlantic to the Pacific.
■ The evidence disclosed an appal-
Ittisc lint of crime* in addition to
those charges in the indictments.
These crimes were all commdice in
the name of Organized I .also I will
not believe that organized labor ap
proves of siieh practices.
"Any organization that approves
nnd adopts the methods of these de
fendants is an outlaw and will meet
the fate which outluws have met
since civilized society began.
"The evidence shows Mime of thes©
defendants to l»e guilty of murder.
I hut they are not charged here witli
that crime; this court cannot punish
them lor it, nor should It lie Influen
ced by such consideration in fixing
the measure of punishment for the
erliue* < barged.
The certain!v of punishment, not
its severity. Is the ini|Mirtnnt consid
eration in the administration of
criminal Justice. Hitch punishment
should lie meted out uh shall want
others Hint even If they desire to ac
complish lawful end*. they miM not
violate the law in the attempt to
realize them Keeping these consid
erations In view the court must re
press that indignation which every
law abiding citizen naturally feel**
at the erlmes which the evidence in
this ran' disclose* in addition to
tlu»M* for whlih th«* defendants have
neon found guilty, atnl as near as
may he i*osslh|e, confine the punish

Referring to the Iron Workers
strike which began in 190.** uu*l
whleli the government charged was
the motive which prompted John J.
McXatnnrs to use dvnamltc Os a

"Hut in a campaign bv dyua

with explosions In the oust and ex

I place, culminating on the first day
of October. 1910, in the destruction
.of the |,o* Angeles Times building
and the murder of twenty-one rteo
pie. Every oik* of those explosions
was upon the work of opcu shop con
cerns and no explosion is shown to
have taken place upon any closed
shop job. Since the arrest of the
McNamaras and MrManlgnl, the***
explosions have reused.
This system of destruction was
not carried on for revenge or obe
dience to any other human passion,
but for the deliberate purpose, by
veritable reign of terror to enforce
compliance with the demands of the
Iron Workers’ ti|*on the open and
diced chop quest ion."
T veil moo and Clancy of San Fran
cisco and Mousey of Salt Isike City,
were repeatedly charged by th© dis
trict attorney during the trial with
having commit teed graver crimes
than those upon which they were
being tried.
"Tvcltmoc, the man who paid the
dynamiters lor the work on the Pacl
lic roast, who asked for more ex
plosions even after tho twenty-one
persons were killed, ought, not to
he hero lor dynamiting, lie ought
to lie out there on tho coast on trial
for murder," was one of District At
torney Miller's statements in the
!court record. "So ought Clancy and
,so ought Mttnsry, the man who for
I two week* harbored .1. B. .McNamara

to lie in Sau Quentin prison In C'uli

"Ik* (you believe thnt organized

I do not,' said Cooney.
James Coughlin, a former Iron

was next called.
While Coughlin was walking for
