OFF TO PRISON.
The Murders of John F. Marsh taken
to the State Penitentiary.
TO BE HUNG BY THE NECK UN TILL,
DEAD.

We publish below a cut of the two
young men who murdered John F.
Marsh, Of this city. The one at the
left is William Harvey, nineteen years
old, who pointed revolver at Mr..
Marsh and in the scuffie that ensued
fired the first shot, which took effect
in the left arm. The one at the right
is Carl Arnold, seventeen years of age,
who, when Harvey and Marsh were
engaged, stepped behind Marsh and
tred the fatal shot.
These young men claimed that they
had no desire or intention to commit
murder. and their doing so shows how
easy it is for young men to be carried
much further on the path of crime
than they had calculated. These boys
are of average intelligence, their sur
roundings had been good, and in the
main their conduct had been exem-
plary up to within a week, when appar-
emily inspired by the daily news of
successful robberies committed in the
territory, and surrounding country they
all at once determined to strike out for
themselves. Being at Enid they went
to livery stable and hired team for
drive, and drove to Medicine Lodge,
leaving their team there they stole two
saddle horses. They next stopped at
Welsford, held up man on the street
and robbed Il store, then came here,
and Ill attempting to rob, murdered
John F. Marsh. They then went to

beyond my comprehension. By this one act
thus committed in your early manhood. You
have forfeited all claim you have upon the
world, even the right to live. When you
were arrested and brought here there was a
very strong determination among the citi-
lens of this city and community. who keenly
felt the sting Of your outrageous crime, to
take the law into their own hands and deal
with you summarIly, but better counsel pre-
vailed and although your crime was cruel
and shocking in the extreme you have been
permitted to have tair trial.
Under the law Of this state do not feel
that there is certainty of adequate pun
1snment in your case. I believe in the old
law of Life for Life" You have no
future on this earth, either Of you: you do
not deserve any. Men who SO forget their
obligation to society, their obligation to
friends. their obligation to their Creator, as
to commit crime of that sort, deserve
nothing in this world save death. or the sort
of penal servitude you will be subjected to.
There fs great hereafter-the promise of
Almighty God to all men. 1t is Q part OF
that promise, although our conduct on earth
may receive and merit the condemnation of
man. that the wrongs committed here may
be atoned for and that you may enjoy the
hereafter. This hope is all that is left YOU
and during the time that you are permitted
to live you should strive to make such atone
ment as will assure you some share in that
heritage. The degree of punishment that
you receive while in the penitentiary will be
governed somewhat by your conduct in
obedience to the rules of that institution
While the sentence of the Court will be that
you be hanged, yet il is possible, even prob
able. that under our law you will escape
execution and will be imprisoned for life,
therefore the Importance of good behavior
while imprisoned. My regret is that the law
is weak. You ought to be hung.
II say to you now, candidly too, that SO far
as I am concerned you need never expect
any help from me in the way Of procuring
executive clemency. 1 shall insist that you
be executed. and that failing, as long as live
l shall insist that your punishment be con-
tinued. because you have murdered my
friend and neighbor whom have loved as q
brother. and you have robbed this commun-
ity of one of its best citizens. You might as
well give up all hope in life for the remainder
of your days must be spent in abject servi-
tude.''

THE MERCURY MISINFO3MED.
THE COUNTY ATTORNEY ADVISED
JUSTICE BRADSHAW TO LET
MR. BROwER PLEAD
GUILTY

To the Editor Graphic:
DEAR SIR:-I saw an article in the
Mercury of last week stating that ID.
NJ. Brewer was arrested and brought
before Justice Bradshaw, who refused
to notify the county attorney as re-
quired by law, and allowed Brewer to
plead guilty, and imposed the smallest
fine possible. =
For the benefit of Mr.. Smith. who
1 believe has been wrongfully IN
formed concerning the facts, l will
say, first, that the county attorney
knew all about the case, he having
made the complaint, and not mole
than one-half or three-quarters of an
hour before the constable brought
Brewer in, the county attorney told me
that if Brewer wanted to plead guilty,
to fire him and charge up his costs.
There is no law on the statute
books of this state that requires a
justice of the peace to give the county
attorney any more notice than he
choose. And further, after Brewer
was brought in we could not find the
county attorney, although Brow er,
Dyer and myself looked for him for
nearly All hour.
These are the facts briefly stated.
The people have seen fit to re e-elect
me at the recent election and l will
say that l am truly thankful. will
always be at your service and admins

Yours truly,

The trial was as follows:

JUDGE.-"I do no know whether there is to

the defendants desire to plead guilty. If
that be true, before accepting the plea
want to notify the defendants, together with
their counsel, that the plea must be entirely
voluntary. and that it must not be prompted
or induced by fear OF violence, or any fear
that defendants will not receive a fair trial,
