DOES He UPHOLD MURDER?
Coy Atkinson RENTS Scott KlmOS
Fine.
And Makes Some Remarkable Ohsct
Nations on the Crime Regrets Hall
Was Not Killed.

From Tho rorkorsburg state Journal.
There YVES filed with Clerk Glenn
ems Tuesday morning a remarkable
document.
IL was an Official document from
Governor Atkinson prepared on "a
pardon blank, in which the fine OF
500 imposed on W. :. Kimes for
shooting Ben Hall was ordered dis
missed, and in which the clerk was
ordered to discharge Kimes for all
further responsibility.
In the course Of tho formal order
the Governor proceeds To make
some starting and sensational state
ments which puts him on record as
practically praislue and upholdlug
attempted murder. lie regrets
that Kimes did not kill Hall, etc.
The Governors statement and
notice OF remission of Gno IS dated
Ch"i iOoIou, huR. y.
After reciting the request of the
petition, style Of suit. etc.. the
Governor interpolates the following
statements into his order
"Fhis IS remarkable case
The only regret in the matter is
that klmos did not kill Hall. He
ought to have done it. He tried
to do it, but his pistol missed fire.
He shot tho scoundrel four times
and unfortunately did not kill him
Every man who has soul in his
body Will agree with me that be
ought to have killed him. lie is
yet at large. Ho ought TO be ap-
pretended, and imprisoned for life
l hope he will be. If tho prosccut
ing attorney Of Wood county does
his duty, he Will see that the
scoundrel is apprehendod, prose-
cuted and imprisoned for the bal
ancc of his natural life for breaking
up Kimes' home.
81 remit the fine in this case and
all the costs with more pleasure
than any word that the English
language furnishes mo, can express.
In this case, Kimes did what every
other man would have done under
the same instances, except
that he ought to have practiced
with hIs revolver or double borrolcd
shot gun 80 that when he aimed AZ
the scoundrel, no would bay,
brought him down. A william like
Hall is unfit to 1.-Two in q civilized
country.
"Such man ought not to be al
lowed to run at large in % christian
community. / repeat again, re
NIT this fine and costs with more
pleasure than l have words to ex-
press."
