"A petition was circulated and ex-
tensively signed this week protesting
against the pardon OF Fellows the wife
murderer. Fellows had made appli-
cation and the hearing was set for July
9Th. Fellows, it will be remembered,
murdered his wife at Oakley in 1896.
Logan county at that time was attached
to Trego for judicial purposes and the
trial was held here. He was found
guilty and sentenced by Judge Osborn to
death by hanging. Under our very
peculiar law in this regard the sentence
practically meant life imprisonment.
The crime was cold blooded, cowardly
and brutal in the extreme and it would
be wrong to turn the murderer loose to
prey upon society. The only safety lies
in keeping him where he is.
