for us to Inajutre as te the objects of this
ooJJusteei and this eoderstandlog and this
f oonepiracy. It is wen te gro Into tb objects
' ef these leaders In aocordanoF Tit k the
principles that actuated them ta effecting
this organisation, so far at least as is
necessary to order te enlighten us as to
this particular crtms that is charred, and
a this, gentlemen, I will say that we
. zpect t peeve, and I have been exact la
this latter, and wQ call it to your atten
tion wtth words that I have considered,
that this waa not the only object of this
organisation, that although the persons
. composing the esecutlve committee so tar
as thetr personality was concerned, have
changed at various time their objects, the
Ideas of tb. leader for tb. body hav.
mmrmr changed. By .mutual agreement and
wneeretending of these leader at the very
Inception ef this ergaalaattam certain
objects were aimed at. and tt has always
been the object of the Inner circle of this
org-antaetloa to accomplish them. In fact,
we will prove to you, ceetlemea of th. Jury,
that at the Inception of this organisation
a conspiracy waa formed by tha member
of the Inner circle' the object of which
eras to perpetuate thetr own power. In
fluence and control both In tha federation
Itself and In the governmental matter, of
the different seouorUI of the mining country
wherein they bad control by employing
uesperat crtmlnfcls te commit murder, and
other atroctou. Crimea, by unusual and
sierra methods against those whs in
official positions refused te be influenced
by their wishes and those who In prlvat.

Metlv fer Ms-rdee.
We will ce further, gi iiMataii of ths
Jury, and prove as part ef ear ease and
ah. wing who Is responsible for th. murder
cf Frank etennecberg, a showing- ths cir
cumstances surrounding that murder and
who caused tt te be committed, that the
leader, of this federation, the men who
compose the Inner ctrols. bar. tor soar,
than eight year, past made a record of
deeds cf violence and that their chosen
methods and coarse and custom has left a
trail ef blood in ths mining section of thia
entire eceet wherein they have had control.
We wa show that th. leaders who coro-l
firta. this Inner circle' Lave traded ta blood,
employed hired assassin, t take life and
tea trey property as their Interests aeem-
Ingly required, and as part of their gen
eral prectlr. of protortloa have raised by
aasusaiinait le-ied upon ths members of
thetr order a large amount of sooner as an
esnerrenry fund, and from it not only
squandered large sums for their own per
sonal use and criminal methods, but have
alas from tt retained th. best legal talent
to defend those cf their a umber chargnd
with crime."

crime, the arrest and confession of Or
