Sheriff Feared That Ritzville Citizens
Might Lynch Him

Walla Walla, Jan. A. ]. Symes,
who murdered Constable Conlee of
Sprague, was brought to the peniten-
tiary to serve a sentence of 10 years.
Sheriff Thompson foiled any would-be
attempt to lynch him at Ritzville. 1t
was not known that Judge Upton was
on the way to RitZville to sentence the
prisoner, and but few people We're in
the court room. All preparation was
made. so within an hour after Symes
was sentenced he was aboard a train
on the way to the penitentiary here.
Sheriff Thompson would not make a
positive statement in regard to the
feeling against Symes by the people of
Adams county, but admitted that there
would probably have been trouble had
Symes been kept there for any length
of time.
He was of the opinion that the strong
est feeling is in Sprague, as it was the
home of the murdered man.
Judge Upton. when spoken to this ev.
ening regarding the sentence of Symes.
said he had no objections whatever to
capital punishment. There was moth
ing in the evidence produced in the
case to warrant verdict of murder in
the first degree. as 1t was not shown
that the act was premeditated. He also
stated that Symes attorneys were
afraid of trouble If the prisoner was
held there any length of time, so he
had him sent to Walla Walla as soon
as possible.
