Acording to report, Mr. Darwin, the anti-slickens spy who is believed to have been recently commissioned as a Deputy United States Marshal, takes umbrage at a little pleasantry this paper indulged in the other day concerning him, and says that ‘“‘anybody can buy the Transcript man and get anything in the paper for a drink of whieky or acigar.”” Mr. Darwin has own part of the State, and has fallen into the error that all newspapers are run on the same plan.

Juror Prisk, in an enfeebled and disguised condition, was present in the ‘jury box when the Superior Court convened Friday morning. Around his head and canght together above the point of the nose .was a blue woolen scarf, leaving just the eyes, a minute patch of forehead and the bridge of the nose peeping out. The unwrapped space was masked bya thick coating of white paint which gave the gentleman a grotesque appearance. The Judge asked him if he felt physically-}and mentally able to go ahead. He said he did and the Lord case was called for the ninth day’s trial. ~ The cross-examination of H, C. HYDE Was resumed. The microscope I use makes no errors that I am aware of.

Lon the ballot is in different form but nearly the same slant as in the exem. plars. In ballot GG the G shows the same general form and movements as in the exemplars, but I have found no is not unusual. different from the exemplars. The d has one important characteristic, that not contain variations from the exemplars. I think a. skillful penman might have written them in imitation been difficult. One might have been imitated so it could not have been detected. No two of the ballots are just alike, but each contains the characteristics of the exemplars. With respect to certain nationalities, they have characteristics of penmanship. Unskilled penmen are more likely to re. tain habits and forms of writing acquired in youth than are skillful ones. Some people write a good signature and a poor hand generally. In ballot J all the lotters contain characteristics of Mr. Lord’s writing. Cannot Bay there is no variation in them, Tne first element of the G is not as long The o is varied in size. The L is not as large, neither is theo. Ther hasa larger loop at the bottom than general and the right shoulder is not so pronounced. The rolling connection between the o andr is notas large. The d has no loop, no terminal line and is much larger at the bottom. There is no other characteristic variation. There is an additional stroke in the ballot as ifthe e had first been made as an 0, and as though it had been altered from Goo to Geo. If there is any other variation concealed there I can’t find it. The capital L is longer. Originally it extended to the W above, making it longer than in the exemplars. I am as positive in that as Iam in the rest of my testimony. other characteristic of it in the signa-. has iadé different statements off the tures is the terminal, Another is the break jn the . part of the d, occurring above the line. In identifying writing I rely on the extreme overbalaticing number of similarities as compared with the differences. In passing my opinion on the writing I base it on the nine ballots admitted in evidence. As ar as I can judge;there is nothing to suggest the ballots were not written at the same tinie. I cannot give a postive opinion on that subject. I think An assumption as to their differences is there was an attem pt to disguise. Another assumption is that they were written under constrained How far there was an at_. tempt to disguise the writing I have no means of knowing. The writing cramped or difficult conditions.

If the court will permit, it will be shown that Lord had a moral and legal righ{ to contest anybody’s election. ' Experts will be introduced to show the writing on the nine ballots cannot be George Lorid’s writing. One witness has for more than 40 years made penmanship a study, and he will sey the experts for the people have been_ talking about that which they know not or are drawing on their imagina ion in ree. gard to the downward tendency of terminalsin writing. It will be shown by him that every man has a peculiar Lord’s angle is entirely absent from the ballots. Another report will show the ease with which Mr. Lord’s signature can be imitated even by an unr. skilled penman. © This case, continued the speaker, is destitute of foundation. Defendant will be placed: on the withess stand. He is not obliged to testify, and if he did not the prosecution would have no right to comment upon thefact. He will tell you conscientiously upon his “oath that he is innocent. ter will be placed on the stand defense witheut furnishing evidence to that effect ; but the gauntlet in this respect will figuratively speaking be ‘thrown down to the prosecution. Having shown to the jury all these things, and that the prosecution has been engendered by the bitterness of’ a hot political contest, the defense will confidentially expect a verdict of not guilty, : At 12:45 ecurt adjourned till 1:30 p. AFTERNOON SESSION, Some ladies were among the spectators in the afternoon, this being the second day since the trial began on which the fair sex have lent their refreshing presence to the temple of justice. The first witness called was WM. G. LORD. I reside in Grass Valley. Am son of the defendant. Martin Shewbridge was summoned by me to testify before the last Grand Jury. Had a conversation with him then. [Objected to what Shewbridge said. Objection sustained. ] : M. E, OLIVER Sworn: Reside at Nevada City. Am apainter. Have frequently varnished furniture. Am familiar with the use of varnish. [Chair with red spots shown to witness.] Have seen it before. The chair has been varnished since the spots got ther? Cross-examined: Haye been at work today for Mr. Hyman. The chair was shown to me in the civil case. I did not varnish it. I was never convicted of a felony. Have worked in offices where sealing wax was on the table. Donot know sealing wax when polished with cloth presents the same surface as varnish. Came to this county in 1871. Never Redirect: There is on the nine balall written at the sametime. The examination of 10,000 documents at San Diego was for the purpose of picking eut certain signatures. I went over them twice and very rapidly. I selected from the 10,000 several hundred signatures, > Re-cross: I simply stated the “fact I had examined the signatures, but did not desire to impress the jury with the idea that I had careful:‘y scrutinized them all. I intended to volunteer an explanation before I got through. At 11 o’clock a. mM. the prosecution rested. x A recess of ten minutes was taken. The Defense. Grove L. Johnson then made an opening statement on bebalf.of the defense. He said he did not expect the prosecution! would close 'so soon, and cou!d not present the points he desired to as he otherwise would, The defense claim it is incumbent upon the prosecution to not only show that ballots cast at Boston Ravine were changed, but that George Lord changed them. The defense will confine its testimony’ to the proof that Mr. Lord in no way altered the ballots ; that as Sheriff it was and is his duty to stay and sleep in the Courthouse at any hours when to him it Seems necessary ; that last year a reward was offered for the arrest of Indian Joe, and Mr. Lord had spent titiéand money hunting for that.individual; that Mr. Lord was on November 19th hunting for Joe, having received information that Joe would be in this city on that day or evening; that Mr. Lord that night disguised himself and hunted for Joe; that everything he did then was done fairly and squarely, Everything he did while in the courthouse will be shown, The presence of candle-grease on the floor will be explained. The red spots called sealing wax on the chair introduced in evidence, had been there since the previous September and was varnished over at that time. The statements in this trial of the officers o: the Boston Ravine Board a3 to how they performed their duty will be contradicted by themselves, and it will be shown that they were mistaken in the civil trial or are mistaken now. Their testimony on both occasions will be presented. The statements made by attorneys in the civil then will be submitted. Testimony will be offered to show the ballote did Persons, and part of the time in the lived in San Quentin. Never was in prison there. J. E. ISAAC Testified: Live at Nevada City.

John Baldwin came to the Clerk’s office about some election returns. The packages on the floor contained the tally sheets, poll lists, and great registers. The ballot packages were put {Witness named some of the precincts whose returns were received theday after election. } Most of them came in that day. There was no statement on the outside of the Boston Ravine package as to how the vote stood. I do not remember the TRANscriPr reporter coming to the office at 2:30 in the afternoon and getting the figures of Boston Ravine pre cinct. He could not have done it as the figures were not there.

There is not enough water on the earth or about it to wash away the meannesg of some men, though, As soon as the storm is over contractor Hughes will begin work on the addition to Odd: Fellows Hall and push the job to completion as speedily as possible. The Salvationists will have their “big go’’ at this city on next Wednesday and Thursday evenings, instead of on Thursday and Friday evenings as at first announced.

Acording to report, Mr. Darwin, the anti-slickens spy who is believed to have been recently commissioned as a Deputy United States Marshal, takes umbrage at a little pleasantry this paper indulged in the other day concerning him, and says that ‘“‘anybody can buy the Transcript man and get anything in the paper for a drink of whieky or acigar.”” Mr. Darwin has own part of the State, and has fallen into the error that all newspapers are run on the same plan.

Juror Prisk, in an enfeebled and disguised condition, was present in the ‘jury box when the Superior Court convened Friday morning. Around his head and canght together above the point of the nose .was a blue woolen scarf, leaving just the eyes, a minute patch of forehead and the bridge of the nose peeping out. The unwrapped space was masked bya thick coating of white paint which gave the gentleman a grotesque appearance. The Judge asked him if he felt physically-}and mentally able to go ahead. He said he did and the Lord case was called for the ninth day’s trial. ~ The cross-examination of H, C. HYDE Was resumed. The microscope I use makes no errors that I am aware of.

Lon the ballot is in different form but nearly the same slant as in the exem. plars. In ballot GG the G shows the same general form and movements as in the exemplars, but I have found no is not unusual. different from the exemplars. The d has one important characteristic, that not contain variations from the exemplars. I think a. skillful penman might have written them in imitation been difficult. One might have been imitated so it could not have been detected. No two of the ballots are just alike, but each contains the characteristics of the exemplars. With respect to certain nationalities, they have characteristics of penmanship. Unskilled penmen are more likely to re. tain habits and forms of writing acquired in youth than are skillful ones. Some people write a good signature and a poor hand generally. In ballot J all the lotters contain characteristics of Mr. Lord’s writing. Cannot Bay there is no variation in them, Tne first element of the G is not as long The o is varied in size. The L is not as large, neither is theo. Ther hasa larger loop at the bottom than general and the right shoulder is not so pronounced. The rolling connection between the o andr is notas large. The d has no loop, no terminal line and is much larger at the bottom. There is no other characteristic variation. There is an additional stroke in the ballot as ifthe e had first been made as an 0, and as though it had been altered from Goo to Geo. If there is any other variation concealed there I can’t find it. The capital L is longer. Originally it extended to the W above, making it longer than in the exemplars. I am as positive in that as Iam in the rest of my testimony. other characteristic of it in the signa-. has iadé different statements off the tures is the terminal, Another is the break jn the . part of the d, occurring above the line. In identifying writing I rely on the extreme overbalaticing number of similarities as compared with the differences. In passing my opinion on the writing I base it on the nine ballots admitted in evidence. As ar as I can judge;there is nothing to suggest the ballots were not written at the same tinie. I cannot give a postive opinion on that subject. I think An assumption as to their differences is there was an attem pt to disguise. Another assumption is that they were written under constrained How far there was an at_. tempt to disguise the writing I have no means of knowing. The writing cramped or difficult conditions.

If the court will permit, it will be shown that Lord had a moral and legal righ{ to contest anybody’s election. ' Experts will be introduced to show the writing on the nine ballots cannot be George Lorid’s writing. One witness has for more than 40 years made penmanship a study, and he will sey the experts for the people have been_ talking about that which they know not or are drawing on their imagina ion in ree. gard to the downward tendency of terminalsin writing. It will be shown by him that every man has a peculiar Lord’s angle is entirely absent from the ballots. Another report will show the ease with which Mr. Lord’s signature can be imitated even by an unr. skilled penman. © This case, continued the speaker, is destitute of foundation. Defendant will be placed: on the withess stand. He is not obliged to testify, and if he did not the prosecution would have no right to comment upon thefact. He will tell you conscientiously upon his “oath that he is innocent. ter will be placed on the stand defense witheut furnishing evidence to that effect ; but the gauntlet in this respect will figuratively speaking be ‘thrown down to the prosecution. Having shown to the jury all these things, and that the prosecution has been engendered by the bitterness of’ a hot political contest, the defense will confidentially expect a verdict of not guilty, : At 12:45 ecurt adjourned till 1:30 p. AFTERNOON SESSION, Some ladies were among the spectators in the afternoon, this being the second day since the trial began on which the fair sex have lent their refreshing presence to the temple of justice. The first witness called was WM. G. LORD. I reside in Grass Valley. Am son of the defendant. Martin Shewbridge was summoned by me to testify before the last Grand Jury. Had a conversation with him then. [Objected to what Shewbridge said. Objection sustained. ] : M. E, OLIVER Sworn: Reside at Nevada City. Am apainter. Have frequently varnished furniture. Am familiar with the use of varnish. [Chair with red spots shown to witness.] Have seen it before. The chair has been varnished since the spots got ther? Cross-examined: Haye been at work today for Mr. Hyman. The chair was shown to me in the civil case. I did not varnish it. I was never convicted of a felony. Have worked in offices where sealing wax was on the table. Donot know sealing wax when polished with cloth presents the same surface as varnish. Came to this county in 1871. Never Redirect: There is on the nine balall written at the sametime. The examination of 10,000 documents at San Diego was for the purpose of picking eut certain signatures. I went over them twice and very rapidly. I selected from the 10,000 several hundred signatures, > Re-cross: I simply stated the “fact I had examined the signatures, but did not desire to impress the jury with the idea that I had careful:‘y scrutinized them all. I intended to volunteer an explanation before I got through. At 11 o’clock a. mM. the prosecution rested. x A recess of ten minutes was taken. The Defense. Grove L. Johnson then made an opening statement on bebalf.of the defense. He said he did not expect the prosecution! would close 'so soon, and cou!d not present the points he desired to as he otherwise would, The defense claim it is incumbent upon the prosecution to not only show that ballots cast at Boston Ravine were changed, but that George Lord changed them. The defense will confine its testimony’ to the proof that Mr. Lord in no way altered the ballots ; that as Sheriff it was and is his duty to stay and sleep in the Courthouse at any hours when to him it Seems necessary ; that last year a reward was offered for the arrest of Indian Joe, and Mr. Lord had spent titiéand money hunting for that.individual; that Mr. Lord was on November 19th hunting for Joe, having received information that Joe would be in this city on that day or evening; that Mr. Lord that night disguised himself and hunted for Joe; that everything he did then was done fairly and squarely, Everything he did while in the courthouse will be shown, The presence of candle-grease on the floor will be explained. The red spots called sealing wax on the chair introduced in evidence, had been there since the previous September and was varnished over at that time. The statements in this trial of the officers o: the Boston Ravine Board a3 to how they performed their duty will be contradicted by themselves, and it will be shown that they were mistaken in the civil trial or are mistaken now. Their testimony on both occasions will be presented. The statements made by attorneys in the civil then will be submitted. Testimony will be offered to show the ballote did Persons, and part of the time in the lived in San Quentin. Never was in prison there. J. E. ISAAC Testified: Live at Nevada City.

John Baldwin came to the Clerk’s office about some election returns. The packages on the floor contained the tally sheets, poll lists, and great registers. The ballot packages were put {Witness named some of the precincts whose returns were received theday after election. } Most of them came in that day. There was no statement on the outside of the Boston Ravine package as to how the vote stood. I do not remember the TRANscriPr reporter coming to the office at 2:30 in the afternoon and getting the figures of Boston Ravine pre cinct. He could not have done it as the figures were not there.
