TIE PRISONERS. Since the delivery Of
Mcintyre and McLane, charged with the
murder of Wallbaum, into Sheriff Nc.
KEGS charge, they have been ironed to
the floor in their cells, and without out
side aid it would be impossible for the
prisoners 10 escape. No visitors are al
lowed to see the men, and no one per.
mitted to have communication with
them, except the officers and the attor-
nsys of the prisoners. By the advice of
their attorneys they refuse TO make any
statements until the time of their trial.
We have received a lengthy account Of
the outrageous murder committed by
these men from the officers who brought
them from Hike. and more cruel and
cold-blooded murder We have never
heard of, except those committed by re-
ligious fanetics Of the Eastern States,
bat we refrain from publishing it because
II we did we fear that no jury could be
obtained in the county to try them. We
wish to see them tried speedily and get
just dues. and during the trial will give
full account Of the testimony produced
for and against the prisoners. Dan
Shankland was appointed jailor and Is
the guardian angel" OF the prisoners.
keeping good look out that they shall
have ne communication with any out
sidsrs and that they are safely retained.

born. The past year in Phoebe has seen
many changes. We cannot say that it has
been rough year in business point of

closed down temporarily, whilst others
have taken new lease OF life, and max
ing extended developments. Capital has
found its way to several Of the mining
districts of the county. and there is every
prospect of said capital reaping rich
reward in the near future. County
affairs have been economically managed
80 that portion of the debt has been
paid off. and scrip improves in value.
The public schools have been open nine
months during the year, scholars show
