Newspapers WIN Drop 1t n = Nasty

LOUISVILLE. KY, April 1.-THE Courier
Journal says:
The jury in the Pollard Breckenridge
case has brought in its verdict.
The trial, which for weeks has
crowded the court room with the
morbid and the purient, which
has poured such vapors of pollution
throughout the land, is over. Now let it
pass from the public mind. The press
has done more than its legitimate
duty. in reporting the proceed
legs, Many newspapers have seized
the opportunity to pauder TO the depraved
and the vicious by adding to the functions
of the journalist those of the scavenger. 1t
is TO be hoped now that even this element
of the press, which has done so much to
discredit self-respectng journalism, will
find il no longer profitable 10 pursue this
foul matter. Let it be left 10 the court
records, and let US trust to the wholesome
sunshine of American manhood and wo-
manhood to drive out the poisonous germs
with which the moral atmosphere has been
contaminated

NO CHANCE FOR BKEoKINKIDoD
Is the Verdict OF the People in Bis Con.
cressIonaI District

LOUISVILLE, KY, April IA special to
the Courier Journal, from Frankfort, KY,
SAYS: The people of this section watched
with interest unsurpassed in its intensity
for the verdict in the Pollard Breckin-
cidge trial. The Daily Capitol appeared in
an extra issue few minutes after the
news was received from Washington,
and in half an hour every man
and nearly every woman in the city
had heard of and were discussing the YER
dict. But one person in the whole town
has been heard to say that the plaintiff
should not have received anything. Brock
inridge's friends are doing very little talk
ing. The consensus of opinion among the
many who openly express any is that the
verdict is a just one and that it will be fol-
" for him to even think Of appearing in
this district as a candidate.

just as ANY Woman would Have Done,
When the Verdict Was Announced
WASHINGTON. April 14.-At % minutes
before o'clock there was rush toward
the court room. Judge Bradley and the
Jury entered at one door, Colonel Breckin-
ridge. his son and Colonel Phil Thompson
at the other. There was some delay in
waiting for the other parties. Everyone
knew the Jurors had not come in 70 ask
for instructions because they carried their
coats and hats The jury had been out
only one hourl and twenty-eight minutes.
There was an intense silence. During
the interval the Jurors sat looking solemn
as the proverbial judges, while thompson
and the gray-haired defendant conferred
in whispers. Five minutes passed before
Attorney Carlisle, representing Miss Pol
lard, entered.
Judge Bradley requested the people to
refrain from demonstrations. Then the
verdict of SIS, 900 for the plaintiff was an
| nounced. There was no expression OF ap-
proval or disapproval from the crowd.
Colonel Breckenridge himself rose to make
| a motion for q new trial and the court ad-
journed.
approval aud regrets that
THE AMOUNT WAS NOT LARGER.
The jury took fifteen ballots before
reaching their conclusion. The difference
was mainly over the amount OF damages 10
! be granted, and there was but one man on
the jury who favored the defendant On
the first ballot one juror voted for the de-
| Tense, and hung on for time, but his COL
| leagues thought he did 1t more for argu-
ment than because he was strongly In favor
| of Colonel Breckenridge. A number OF
ballots were required to reach compro-
mise on the amount OF damages 10 be
| awarded. Two or three jurors wanted TO
give the full amount Of $4,000, while the
| others thought that merely nominal dam
ages would serve TO express their opinion
that the Congressman had treated Miss
| Pollard shabblly.
Formal notice I q
MOTION FOR NEW TRIAL
was given by the defense, Colonel Brock
| inridge was very cool after the verdict had
| been rendered He walked away with his
| counsel, talking, but he declined to speak
at the time for publication, as did his at
torneys.
Miss Pollard was somewhat excited but
not historical while awaiting the result
and as woman always does, broke into
tears when she heard it. She declined TO
| be interviewed and her attorneys said that
she was anxious TO efface herself from the
| public sight as far as possible, now that
the case had ended.

against him.
Down In the Fourth district there
will be little opposition to tho nomlna'
tion Of Warren Miller by the Republic
cans for Congress. They think he will
carry the farmer vote. A pretty three
cornered fight between Judge McClaer
OF Wood, Judge Harvey, of Cabell, and
CONGRESSMAN Capehart, of Mason, Is on
among the Shoestring Democrats, with
a possibility OF w. w. Thomas, OF Put
nam, presenting his name before the
convention.
The conventions will be held In .
few months, and from that time on
great political activity may be ex-
pected.
A special dispatch to the REGISTER
from Clarksburg gives the following po-
itical gossip from that place: lis now
pretty certain that Geo. w. Atkinson
will meet with strong opposition In this
county from the friends OF b. b. Do
veneer. Many think that Dovener did
not have q fair chance in the last
campaign, and therefore favor his
denomination. However, If j. L.
Clifford can be prevailed upon 10
enter the race. he will go into the con-
vention with Harrison cOunty's delega-
tiou solid for him, and with the assur-
ence of large following from Gilmer,
Lewis, Doddridge and other counties.
In fact, he is the choice OF his party,
and In order for his friends to marshal
their hosts, IL is simply for him TO con-
sent to be candidate.
More than likely Judge Edwin Max
well will be returned TO the Senate, for
he will get the nomination II he desires
it, and Of course will be elected with
the large Republican majority in
this Senatorial district. IL Is
well understood that Major A. G.
Moore and Harvey w. Harmed will be
endorsed by the Republicans for the
House of Delegates. The Democrats
have made but little stir, however your
correspondent hopes in short while 70
give theREGIsTER the names OF the Dem
ocratlc asJirants, who are favora6ly
considered aud likely to be nominated.
Harrison county will be close this time
aud there is good chance that the
Democrats will succeed by cooperation
and the selection OF Representative
men.

HORsEM WAKE UP!
GleDdive Has Taken the Lead and Appro-
priated the Fourth Of July Date.

S. NJ. Wills Of Little Beaver was in
town yesterday. and as usual was found
ready and willing talk horse" to the
reporter. Mr.. Wills is a breeder Of road
sters and driving horses at his Beaver
creek ranch. and is a firm believer in the
idea that a breeder who expects to sell
his horses must keep them before the
public. Fortunately for the people Of
Dawson county most 81 the breeders and
owner Of fast horses in that section are
OF the same opinion. and in consequence.
Mr.. Wills tells the JOURNAL that the
horsemen have already arranged for a
big meeting at Glendiye on July 18th.
The main events Of the meeting are
stake and match races. for which the
money will all be up some time before
the meeting. and hence no doubt or
anxiety a. 10 whether the races will fill.
In addition to these. there will be the
usual number Of purse races, both trOt-
ting and running. which will undoubt
eddy till in good shape. as the stake ana
match races will insure a good attend
ance. and induce the owners Of racing
stock 10 be on hand. Among the GER
tain events Of the meeting may be men
toned a two-year old nomination stake
race for 800. which has already been

in which Messrs. Beck. Simpson. Helms.

Gleason. eight in all. have thus far made
their nomination. Another race that is
already settled is a match race between
Doc" Hedges Uncle Bob, the American
Leopold Beck's Chesa Peake. the win
ner Of one OF the steeple chases at Miles
City last summer. This race is to be a
mile and a quarter dash for 500 a side.
The enterprise exhibited by the Daw-
eon county horsemen is certainly TO be
commended, and should spur our Custer
county horsemen into like activity. With
one OF the best tracks IN the state, and
the only track in eastern Montana where
a mile race can be satisfactorily trotted
: or run. 1t would seem that the Custer
county association should take the lead
in these matters. but as IT has not done
so this year. n IL will only follow the
good example set 10y the Dawson county
association. II will be a good way toward
redemption. but We should act promptly
Ar II is Glendive has claimed the Fourth
~ July, which is ~ course the cream
but il We act in conjunction by setting a
meeting at Miles City on the days mme.
diately succeeding the Fourth we cal
undoubtedly get the bulk if not all Of
the Glendiye horses To enter here. and
Custer county horsemen in turn should
toe well represented at the Glendiys
meeting. What about this, Mr.. Presi
dent and directors of the Custer County
association:
