| " participate in the trial. They do not
concede that in their action there is error
or mistake. nor do they assert that undue
influence was used, that the testimony was
suborned or that the proof was not evident
and the presumption of guilt conclusive
against this petitioner, or that they rem
dered verdict contrary to the evidence adj
duced at the trial and the instructions of
the court then given; They do not retract
it, perhaps weakening their position some-
what by signing as other citizens have done.
The fact that they signed the petition, the
ground work of which was based upon the
broad principle that justice should be
tempered with mercy" is no evidence that
they nave recanted or repented.
But the last ground commended for needs
more than passing notice, for in itself it
is libel upon the personal character and
integrity of every juror: The verdict of the
jury i'll this case was arrived at upon the
fore them at the trial that Albert jackson
murdered Bruno Laveille in the form and
manner as charged in the indictment. The
jury did not obtain a verdict of guilty
through compromise or in any other way
or manner than in compliance of the oath
by them taken, wherein they swore that
they would a just and true verdict render
according to the evidence. This l assert to
be true the verify of which. six of the jur-
ors in my presence vouched for.
My fourth reason for refusing to concur
needs no argument to sustain it, it is an
answer within itself. This case is without
precedent in history; murder was COM
United to satisfy revengeful spirit; per-
jury was resorted to, that the prime actor
might escape its fearful consequences, the
character and reputation of the jurors
smirched that the clemencv of the executive
might be obtained, and false afidavits
which mired the chastity Of the widow were
presented to the board of pardons to in
fuence their action.
1t was not enough to take the life of
Bruno Laveille and as we'll libel the jury,
but they have closed this infamous chapter
in the drama by presenting here before us
afiidavits that seek to make the wife har-
lot and the children illegitimate.
For these reasons / cannot concur in the
action of the governor
H. j. HASKELL,
Member of Board of Pardons.
Mr.. Kenney stated after the board ad-
journed that he could not conscientiously
condemn man to capital punishment
upon the testimony of one person, and that
person, as in this case, q woman.

A SERIOUS ACCIDENT.

L. b. Wells and Wife Run Into by Rum
away Team,
Levi B. Wells, the manager OF Wells
conservatory on Sixth avenue, with his wife
drove down in the valley yesterday after
noon on a visit, and on their way homo
were driving along Benton avenue. Near
DR.. Stones residence Mrs. Wells happened
to look back, and saw runaway team COM
ing toward them, with an excited China
man clutching at the relns, and told her
husband to pull out Of the road. This he
did. but the Chinaman's team came tearing
along headed directly for MI. Wells vehi-
Gle. He put the whip on his own team, but
was unable to get out Of the way. the runa-
way horses plunging into his buggy, oapsiz-
ing it aud throwing both of the occupants
to the ground. Mr.. Wells fell on his head
and was seriously injured. Mrs. Wells was
not SO badly hurt, and her injuries were soon
taken care of, but she was very much wor-
ried about tho condition of her husband.
At late hour last night he was still uncon-
scious, and it was feared he had received
very serious injury, as hemorrhage from
the left ear would indicate that he had re-
ceived internal injuries of the head.

THE OTHER SIDE.

Tho Applicants Begin Their Testimony in
the School Section Case.
Yesterday the applicants in the school
section case at the United States land Office
began the offering of their testimony to es-
tablish the mineral character of section
sixteen. Benjamin F. Marsh was the first
witness examined. He testified that he
had followed the business of surveying for
fifty four years, twenty-three of which had
been passed in Montana. He has been a
United States deputy mineral surveyor for
twenty-one years. He examined the land
| in question and reported the improvements
on it to the department. Based on his ex-
animation of section 16, he did not consider
the land to be valuable for agricultural
purposes, but thought it would likely be
valuable for mineral. In 1864 he was a
deputy mineral surveyor and was engaged
in sub dividing township 10 north of range
4 west, and in his report no part of section
16 was returned as mineral land. The tax
ing of the testimony will occupy some time
yet. As the witnesses testify the evidence
Is taken down on typewriter and is signed
by each witness at the conclusion of his ex-
animation.

trial. In this case Hammond bought lot
from Cortin, and made a partial payment
The lot was in the town of Philipsburg
Hammond improved the land to the extent
of 800, and before the second payment was
due he found that Cortin had no title to
quire title. The supreme court reversed
the judgment of the lower court, which
gave Hammond judgment. 1t is the opinion
of the court that Cortin was not RESPONSE
BILE for the improvements made, and says
people purchasing land should investigate
titles before buying them.
| The case of the Helena Lumber company
vs.. the Montana Central is one where lien
was placed on the depot at Marysville. Col.
McCutcheon appeared for the railroad.
There are some interesting points in this
case, as it will decide if a person can place
lien on the property of q railroad corpora
ton. The appellants claim they can under
the laws of Montana. Col. McCutcheon ar
CUES that no person can take up an engine,
a car, or mile of track on lien. much
less building; that lien must be placed
Oh the entire railway system. As the rail
road property is mortgaged it would b,
hardly probable, therefore, that the claim
ants could recover anything.
Another case of interest before this cour
is that of school district No. Z Vs. Patterson
treasurer of Gallatin county. 1t appear
that in the school district mentioned til
farmers children have only three months c
echool during the year, and that in summe
time. During winter, however, the Chi
dren are sent to BoZeman to school and tn
taxpayers of the district now refuse to pa
school taxes for both places.
