THE BYBEE CASE.
mar Sunny of the Evidence.

The evidence in the Bybee case
as brought out at the trial, briefly
appeared to be about as follows:
Greenman, who was travelling
for tombstone establishment in
st. Louis, was temporarily located
in Laddonia, and stopping at By
bees hotel. 1t came to Bybee's
ears that Greenman had called him
a thief. On going into Logan's
drug store he saw Greenman and
asked him what he meant by call
ing him a thief. Hot words passed
and then the matter was made up,
at least, SO Bybee thought. Bybee
then stood around the stove a few
moments when he started out and
Greenman said something to him
which Bybee did not hear, as he is
deaf. He stopped and asked,
"what did you say?" Greenman,
stepping towards him, replied,
"you have talked as no gentleman
would" and struck Bybee. Fol-
lowing this up he caught Bybee by
the throat with the left hand and
struck at him with the right. Dur
ing this scuffle Bybee got his pocket
knife out and struck at Greenman,
one of the blows striking him. He
then went out of the store and hid
the knife. On being asked why he
hid the knife he replied, "I don't
know; I was excited" Bybee was
then arrested and afterwards ad.
| mitted to bail. The evidence
brought out at the late trial was moi
near as strong for the State as the
public expected and nearly all who
| heard the trial appeared to think
the verdict would be 'snot guilty

THURSDAY, FEB 8, 1888,
NOT IN THE RACE.
Judge Norton Openly Declares
Himself not a Candidate For
Governor.

The fact that Judge Elijah I'll.
Norton will not be a candidate for
the Democratic nomination for Gov
ernor was made public to-day.
That it is fact seems certain. In
reply to a letter from Ex-Governor
T. T. Crittenden, Judge Norton ex-
plains why he will not be a candi-
date. He is convinced that no one
occupying place on the Supreme
bench should engage in a contest
for a political office. Acting upon
this conviction he had not partici-
pated in politics to any extent. He
thinks that any other course would
subject him to criticism, and that
it was both an oversight and mis-
take that the constitutional conven-
tion failed to insert a clause
in the constitution, declaring that
no Judge of court of record should
be eligible to any political Office
within the gift of the people during
his official term. The remainder
of the reply is as follows:
To Hen. I. IT. Crittenden, Kansas City, Mo.
JEFFERSON Cry, Mo-, Feb. 81
= X 4 Entertaining these views,
it would be unjust to my friends,
as well as to myself, to sanction, by
my silence, the further use of my
name as candidate for the office
named, and / therefore request that
it be no longer used in connection
Herewith. / have heretofore said,
in response to a letter from one of
the NEST prominent members of the
party, that / would not enter the
lists as a candidate for nomination
to the office, and that | would not,
under any circumstances, seek it,
and / meant by this that, SO far as
/ was concerned, the field was
open. to all, and that I would not
stand in the way as contestant
of any who might enter it.
There are strong minded, true
and brave hearted men in every
congressional, if not in every sena-
torisl district in the State, to whom
the banner of the Democratic party
could be safely entrusted in the
coming campaign, and prefer any
one of them to myself.
When | have finished my con
tract. with the State by serving out
my time, l would then, and moi
till then, be in a position, if | chose
to do so, to put myself before the
people for political promotion.
