YOUNGER PARDON DENIED,
State Board Votes Against 1t IMAM
imously-ke1llhan's Sem
tenCe Committed.

A special to The GAZETTE Tuesday
evening contained the information that
the State Board of Pardons, after ex-
tended arguments for and against the
pardon of Cole and James Younger,
went into executive session and by a
unanimous vote refused to grant the
pardon. The board consists of Gov.
Clough, Chief Justice Start and At
torney General Childs. This puts a
quietus on the pardoning of these men
for some time to come.
The same board committed the
sentence of Kellihan, one of the Sher-
burne bank robbers and murderers
from hanging to life imprisonment.
The board of pardons was certainly
not very consistent in these two cases.
Kellihan's crime was the same as the
Youngers', bank robbery and murder
combined. but in the former case it is
believed that the Youngers themselves
did not commit actual crime, but were
with the party in robbing the North
field bank. In Kellihan's case he was
principal. His sentence to hang
should have been carried out and the
action of the board was decidedly
weak and tinctured with what is known
as pigeon liver. Doing that the men,
hers might as we'll have faced public
sentiment and pardoned the Youngers.

Of a man almost naked was found this
afternoon lying in a bunch of willows

NO MORE FUSION.
Colorado Democrats Will Here
after Go 1t Alone.

DENVER, Sept 6.-The Democrats
of Colorado to-day decided that here
after there shall be no more fusion by
that party with any other. After a
very heated session John A Gordon OF
Las Animas County, a straight Demo-
crat, was nominated for Supreme Court
Justice by the decisive vote Of 233 to
167.
A notable event was the announce
ment made on the floor of the conven-
ton by a Silver Republican that Judge
Hayt was nominated on Friday by the
Republicans at Denver and the Silver
Republicans at Glenwood, but would
not accept the nomination, because it
would necessitate his Endorsement of
the St. Louis platform, whereas his
sympathies were with that promul-
gated at Chicago.
The platform adopted, after referring
in laudatory terms to Hon. William j.
Bryan, and predicting his election to
the Presidency in 1900, says:
eve believe the free coinage of sill
yer at the ratio Of IS to l to be the
paramount issue before the people OF
this nation, end until settled rightly
it should be the supreme question IN
every election, whether national or To-
cal. We expressly declare our oppo-
sition to any movement which may be
construed as a waiver Of the issue, and
pledge ourselves to do all in our pow
er, whether alone or in conjunction with
others who believe in the same thing,
to defeat any candidate who accepts
nomination by those who are opposed
to the principles of the Chicago plat
form"
Government by injunction was
touched upon, the cause of the strik-
ing coal miners of other States in
dorsed. and the administration of Gov
ernor Adams commended. The plat
form then says:
eve recognize in the bountiful crops
of the country and the failure of crops
in competing countries a splendid adj
vantage to our people by raising the
price of farm products, but we 6eplore
famine in other lands, ara desire
prosperity that does not depend upon
the adversely of the balance of the
world"
Efforts were adopted to secure the
Endorsement of the Silver Republican
candidate, Judge Hayt, and the Pop
ulist candidate, Judge Gabbert, but the
anti-fusionists triumphed. Only Judge
Gabbert's name was placed in COMPETE
ton with that of Judge Gordon, with
the result above noted.
