MARROW BUDGET.


MARROW, !. r.. March 2S.-The events
of the past few days Will always ps
remembered as an interesting pIt u.
the history of the little city III the ouh
grove. Ever since the town ste was
located here some OF the natives ~
one side and galvanized Indians on "
other have been trying to make peopls
helieve that thew had lawful right

ing rental value ON all lots III llle
towns. And the good people Iu,"et
than be considered mean ana selllsh VI

portunlties of these self-slyleu iahu-
lords. began at the start to contrlDute
the then very reasonable demands'
But alasi for poor old Paleface. Inc
more he paid the more the poor INDIANS
wanted and the oftener Paletace pald
the oftener Redface wanted MN 10
pay again, until the amount OF the
tributes levied and demanded was SUM-
Client to attract tollmen from ntnr on,
who would come in as the friends ana
agents of some poor Indian VINO hNed

mud and danced the war dance on TINS
town site In time so remote thnt lhe
minds of the paleface runneth not
thereto, and therefore It Is his to col

ON growing worse, until last week

gether and after discussing matters
called n general mass meeting OF the
citizens of the town for Tuesday night,
March "a and at o'clock last night
the said meeting was called to order
and after electing chairman the fol-
lowing proceedings We're had:
Whereas, there have been various
and repeated efforts made by natives
and non-citizens To exact unjust and
eNorhltant taxes from the people on
lots In MARROW; therefore be II
Resolved, that we positively and en-
phatically refuse to pay tribute de-
manded and from henceforth viii eX-
ercise the rights OF free American ciu-
zens, and Will cast our lots together for
future protection and mutual defense
against all impositions IN the way of
levying tribute.
This resolution was adopted unani-
mously and on motion was signed by
nearly 100 as the declaration of indie
pendence OF Marlow against lmpostor,
Spectator and boomer alike, whether
he be Indian or white man, galvanized
or not.
a committee on management and
finance was appointed to look after the
citizens Interest. on motion all friendly
papers were asked to publish the pro-
ceedings, There Is no question but
what the people of MARROW want To
do right and from the plain reading of
the resolution It seems that they have
made up their minds to teach town
sklnners and sharpers a lesson, and to
see that justice be done to all con-
cerned.

DENTON, March IS.
Crews viii hang! Such is the result
OF one OF the most exciting trials in
the annals OF Denton county since
the days of the Brown boys trial and
execution.
j. q. A. Crews was once prior to
this trial convicted for the murder OF
II. b. Murrell in Cooke county. and
his punishment assessed at death, but
a new trial was secured and on a
change OF Venue the case was trans
ferred to this county.
As stated. this has been a trial pro-
ductive OF great excitement, and in
spite OF the dangerous condition OF
the building. large and intent audi
enee has filled the court room since
: Monday. The flght>was a hot one. and
attorneys, both Tor the prosecution and
defense have made exceedingly able
efforts. Judge Potter OF Gainesville,
Hon. $. d. Ponder and Hon. j. w.
sullivan V.re attorneys for the state,
while Lubdell u Mounts and Hon. G..
NJ. Greenlee were for the defense.
The counsel closed and the case was
given to the jury at o'clock yestcr-
day afternoon, but a verdict was not
reached until 0 o'clock this morning.
The jury was almost unanimous on the
first ballot FOR assessing the death
penalty. only two voting adversely. The
serious nature OF their duties was evil
IDENTIFY appreciated by them, and some
half hour before the verdict was given
the low tones OF the hymn, In the
sweet bye and bye" We're heard eman-
ating from the jury room. The pale
ness of the jury was remarked, and
the fate Of the prisoner known almost
before the verdict I'VE. the jury. lind
the defendant guilty of murder in
the first degree, and assess his punish-
mcnt at DEATH" was read. Crews was
to all appearances the coolest and
most perfectly self possessed person
in the house, and later arose and heap
ed the bitterest vituperatlons upon
the Murrell family. until denounced as
liar by one OF the Murrells. Crews
says that he VIII not be hung, ana
seems to think he will cheat the gal
lows. lie expressed no remorse for his
atrocious crimes, but gloried in them,
and expressed the wish that he might
possess n Winchester and have the
Murrell family within range, saying
that he-thought he could kin at least
SIX of them before he could be killed.
People were present at the trial
from various parts OF Cooke. Montague
and Denton counties. and the verdict
meets with the hearticst approval of
almost every one When the verdict
was read many rushed out OF the room
to telegraph the news to friends and
relatives in other points.
While numberless encomlums are
heard upon the very able defense made
by Messrs Lubdell, Mounts and Green
lee. every one feels that the death
sentence on Crews was just.
