The Fate of INC Murderers.

Neto Mericdn.
In the supreme court last Friday fore
noon, Associate Justice w. d. Lee handed
down two opinions affirming the decision
Of the Dona Ana county district court in
the case Of two Grant County criminals,
VIM. Davis and John A. Murray. The
former shot a man at Pinos Altos named
Hugh Fox, and his case being taken to
Dona Ana county on a change Of venue,
he was convicted of murder in the third
degree and sentenced to seven years in
the penitentiary.
John A. Murray, of Pinos Altos, placed
dynamite under house where his two
sons were asleep and blew them into
eternity because they had some interest
in sharing with him the proceeds Of a
certain estate. He was sentenced for life.
When the cases came up Solicitor Gen.
eral Bartlett defended the action of the
lower court and fled transcript Of the
record on behalf of the Territory.
In the Davis case, no bill Of exceptions
says the opinion, bringing up the evidence
or presenting exceptions taken to the
ruling of court below was offered to the
court A review Of the proceedings, the
opinion says, reveals but one objection
made, and that is, defendant, before the
jury was empaneled, entered challenge
to the array Of the jury, but for what
reason does not appear. The grounds oi
challenge to jury must be specifically
stated, and the challenge to the ARA,
must be in writing, says the opinion
The record shows that the exception
was taken TO the ruling of the lowe
court in not sustaining the challenge
but it does not show that the challeng,
was in writing, or the grounds upol
which it was made. Therefore there i
nothing before this court to consider il
regard to it."
In the Murray case the facts relativ
TO the manner Of its appeal and its statu
in court were substantially the same n
in the Davis case The court finds n,
error in the record, and the judgment o
the court below Is affirmed.
The prisoners are now in the Doha AM

w. II. Durkee has again been appointed
road supervisor for the town Of Silver
City. The streets arc in bad condition
and need to have great deal Of work
done on them, and this work will have
to be repeated every year until the city
fathers decide TO commence paving the
streets. A block Of pavement put down
this year would not have TO be repaired
next year, and all the business street
could be paved in few years without
incurring any more expense than is being
incurred by filing in dirt to be washed
out at every flood. After so many years
of experience 1t ought to be about time
that some substantial work should be
done on the streets Of this city.
