The Enterprise on KendrIck.

Tho Enterprise takes occasion to
cast n slur on tho citizens, as we'll rs
on the District Court, OF Elko county
by stating that "a scheme was con-
cocted and carried out TO send E s.
Kendrick to the State Prison upon a
frivolous preteIt," when no was con-
yicted Ut an assault with a deadly
weapon and sent up for fifteen
months in February, 1888. "a fellow
feeling makes us wondrous kind"
and although the Enterprise scribe
does not attsmpt to palliate tho
crime Of murder, no intimates that
the murderers mind was unbalanced
by dissipation, and that he was driven
to desperation by injuries received Mt
tho hands Of his vito and her rela-
tiyes.
This is shoer nonsense, as the testi-
mony OF the best citizens OF Lamoille
Valley will show. From what we can
learn Of tho facts In the case Ken
drick not only did nothing for the
support Of his wife and children, but
on the contrary spent in gambling
and dissipation quite n snug little
sum OF money that his wife, who has
the reputation Of being n OF the
most industrious women in the coun-
ty, earned by taking in washing and
which she had saved up to purchase
household furniture with which to
go to housekeeping when his term OF
service ns n soldier expired. IIo was
sent TO tho Penitentiary for a coward.
~ attempt cithor TO injure or kill nm
innocent girl, notwithstanding tho
Enterprise snys "he Ind committed
no wrong and intended none."
We would infer from tho article in
question that tho writer takes tho
ground thnt il q drunken loaior,
whose reputation " q q%uarrolsome,
brutal man is notorious. attempts tho
lifo Of q girl by throwing \ knifo at
her, md whom fortunately no misses
his aim does not follow Thor up and
kill hOr, "he Is guilty Of no wrong and
intended none" The Enterprise
might just ~ we'll take tho ground
that Ksndrick "was guilty Of no
wrong and Intended mono" whom he
shot Otto Hugo. as TO claim that he
wns guiltless In p~orpctrating An as.
sault on Iona Labriska, for Kondrick
suys no did not intend to kill Hugo
and ne "Kondrick Is n bright man
q most interesting man, whose roason
is undermined by dissipation" his
statement should DO takon NJ proof
that no wont TO Hugo's premises with
tho kindost md most friendly feelings
toward his victim.
