The Hale and Norcross Trouble

The Miners Union seem determined
that none of their number shall work
under the Tangermau regime. They
claim that he made miners who work
ed for him pay back so cents a day,
and also that he held out poll taxes
from miners wages which he did not
pay to the tax collector. These are the
rumors floating about. Whether true
or not it would seem that the miners
who would refuse 81 a day these hard
times must have something Of a griev-
ance.

man had a conference here a few days

TWO JURORS TALK.
And Tell Why They Voted as
Thew Did in the Jones Case

Yesterday a Juror who voted for con
vietion in the Jones case said to an
APPEAL reporter: The seven Of US who
voted for conviction did so because we
believed Jones took the e Id from the
Mint. There was not the slightest
doubt in our minds. The fact that
the gold was gone from his depart
ment, and that he had a deposit Of
$50, 900 in the bank which he was not
able to explain. were Of course the
made while he had charge of the re-
finery and before Harris came in.
The attemi t to throw the shortage
onto Harris, hurt his case. We de-
vested our minds of all sympathy in
the matter, for if he had no consid-
Grafton for those nea and dear to him,
how could he expect perfect stranger.
to have. He took the money, lived
like a prince, while it lasted, and took
tue chances Of discovery He gam
bled and lost, that's about all there is
in it. He had sufficient salary to en-
able him to live honestly, but he he
trayed his trust and should be pun
ished for it. l do not care to discuss
the reasons why the other five men
voted as they did. They had no an
swer to make to argument and refused
TO look at facts. They claimed that
the large amount of money Jones had
was borrowed. and that as no one saw
him make the melt nothing was
proven, and nothing could change
them.
4 juror who voted for ac9uitta
said:
Il didn't consider the Government

sums of money above his salary the.
didn't show it to the jury, The none.
he had in the bank was borrowed
from a friend of his, and I didn't con

him. That was for the Government

The APPEAL don't believe the public
has seer the last of the Fair will yet,
Some Of these wills must have been
made by parties who had a big pull
on him for his past crimes. The
assasins he hired to put men out OF the
way on the Comstock may have fur
nished somebody with a pull and they
held these things over him. In his
life time he stopped at nothing to
gain riches, and the last ten years of
his life was a night mare. He never
had a good nights rest after Smith
died, but he slept better after his &C
complies, Kosser and McKinsie,
passed away. We believe that after
the courts have wrestled awhile with
the various wills, another will turn
up and be the one he really wanted to
stand.
