No Trace of the Murderer of Fran
cisco Gomez.
The horse of Francisco Gomez,
who was murdered by Ursolo Quiu-
tero Saturday night, was found by
Sheriff Campbell at Lambs store
on South Flores street yesterday
morning. No trace of the MUIR
dererer has yet been discovered.
The necessity of set of blood
hounds for the city or county
was shown Saturday night, for
with several good hounds it is be-
lieved Quintero would have been
captured within twelve hours after
the murder. 1t is believed that
Quintero is heading for Mexico,
and as there is no law requiring a
passport to cross the border, he
can easily escape. Sheriff Camp
bell and Detective Shelly spent all
day yesterday searching for the
murderer, but without avail.
Quintero is described as Mexican
of very dark complexion. He wore
an old black coat, grey felt hat
and light grey jean pants. He is
of medium size and weighs about
las pounds.

date of the law, based on a full
and fair investigation and trial,
in which the evidence was such
as to establish the guilt Of the
accused beyond reasonable
doubt. Lynchings cause people
outside of a state to look upon
such state as in a semi-savage
condition and devoid OF all respect
and reverence for the laws and the
courts. They do great injury to
the state where they are perpe-
trated.
Public opinion alone has the
power to put stop to these I'M

Lynch, and all it has to do to
effect this object is sternly to con-
denim such proceedings.
The New York World has been
patting the south approvingly on
