bench with distinction, and of course
satisfactorily to the bar and people.
Congressman king-I have known
Judge Baskin for a, great many years
and know him to be a man of in
tegrity and honor. I served with him
in the Legislature and found him to be
earnestly devoted to the interests of
the entire people. He is a lawyer Of
great ability and for years has stood
at the head of his profession. He is
especially conversant with mining
litigation and the manifold questions
involved in the business enterprises
and pursuits of the state. In addition
he possesses great courage and has an
eninently philosophic and legal mind
I know of no man in the state better
equipped for the position of justice of
the supreme court than Judge Basxin.
f. 5. Richards-Judge Baskin has
been one Of the leaders of the Salt
Lake bar for over so years. During
that time he has tried some of the
most important cases that have ever
been tried in Utah. He is a man of
exceptional ability and fine legal at
tainments. His integrity is beyond
question. He is a we'll read man,
whose equipment for the exalted posi-
ton is enhanced by a judicial tempera-
ment and a conscientious regard for
the faithful discharge Of duty. He will
make an excellent supreme judge and
leave a record of which the S. tie may
well be proud
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1898-10-31

Baskin as a first-class lawyer. By
training and education and his long
residence and intimate acquaintance
with the people and institutions of the
state. he is enlinently qualified for the
place of justice of the supreme court.
His good common sense and sterling
integrity peculiarly fit him Tor that po-
sition.
Judge Powers - Concerning Judge
Baskin's legal qualities, no lawyer in
the west has had more experience or
more opportunities to perfect himself.
The records show that he did the prin-
cinaI law practice in this city for years.
and did il well. His honesty cannot be
questioned, and he is thoroughly ac-
ouainted with the needs Of the people
of this state. He is not too old. either.
He can sit on the bench for 10 years
and be an active lawyer at the end of
that period,
Thomas Marshall-The first four vol
umes of the law reports of the territory
of Titan show that Mr.. Baskin at that
time was in about half the cases tried.
Many of them were carried to the

suits very favorable TO Mr.. Baskin He

less attorney and would make an able

upon them yesterday. Mrs. Belle Conway.
who is the cause of this unusual condition
, of affairs, is confined in the county Jail
charged with the murder of her husband.
II the charges are true, and the officers
claim to have positive evidence of the
/ guilt OF Mrs. Conway. then one of the
most atrocious murders ever committed
in this state has bene perpetrated-
Jesse Conway was for fifteen years a
resident of this county and u well-to-do
ranchman, being one of those hardy pio-
neerS who pushed their way into this
broken and unsettled country. a few
weeks ago he came to Meeteetse and COM
plained of being i'll. He repaired to the
home of a friend and a physician was
called in. The doctor pronounced the i'll
ness typhoid malarial fever. Mrs. Conway
came to town and nurSed her husband,
who continued to grow worse. Mrs. Con-
way acted in q strange manner and al
times she allowed no one in the sick room.
Last Friday Conway began to fail rap
idly. The physician was nOnDluSsed and
called in an assistant. Il was then dis
covered that Conway was suffering from
opium poisoning. After a hard struggle,
the doctors succeeded in getting Conway
out Of danger. Yesterday morning, how
ever, he was taken down again. Once
more the doctors found opium poisoning
and once more they began to battle to
save the mans life. He was too far gone.
night.
The strange circumstances surrounding
the death of Conway became known and
citizens insisted on the holding Of an in

post mortem was held. The examination
was made, and the jury returned the YER

opium, administered by his wife, Belle
Conway
Mrs. Conway is apparently unconcerned,
although she says the death of her hus-
band has broken her heart. The prisoner
appears to be in her right mind. and Just
what prompted her to commit the heinous
crime is a mystery. So far as il is known
Conway and his wife lived happily togeth-

Judge Baskins candidacy for justice
of the supreme court is looked upon
with approval by a very large majority
of the members of the bar. 1t is the
aifn of the bar to remove the judiciary
from the realm of politics, a ccnsum-
nation also devoutly desired by the
mere thinking portion of the commu-
nifty. In the present campaign this has
been done probably as far as can be
done under the system which obtains.
In regard TO Judge Baskin, there is a
wonderful unanimity of opinion as to
his fitness for the office to which he
has been nominated. Lawyers who be-
long to the Republican party and are
expected to work for and vote the Re
publican ticket are reticent to express
opinions for publication favorable to
a candidate on the opposition ticket,
but in conversation a large number Of
members of the bar WHO belong to the
Republican party express their APP
proval of Judge Baskin, while none
have a word to say against his qualifi-
cations as a lawyer or integrity as
o. man. 4 Herald reporter circulated
among the lawyers and obtained the
following expressions Of opinion:
Senator Rawlins-I have known
Judge Baskin since 1 began the prac-
tlce or law IN 1873. he was then re-
garded as one of the leaders of the
bar and an excellent lawyer. I nave
every confidence in nis learning as q
lawyer. His temperament and integri-
ty well qualify him for the supreme
bench. and I have no doubt. il elected,
he will give universal satisfaction.
p. L. Williams think ne is well
qualified. 1 have known him for more
than % years. He is a man that is
learned in the principles of law, knows
its sources and reasons and has a dis
eliminating mind. While his practice
the last ten or a dozen years has not
been SO active as it was during a like
period preceding that, yet he has never
lost his interest in the profession, and
would, 1 believe, not only take great
interest in the work of q supreme JUS
tiCe. if elected, but 1 have the utmost
confidence that in arriving at his de-
cisionS in all cases he would be guided
by no other desire than to ascertain
what the law was in a given case, and

Loyalty in rendering his decision, for
getting who the parties to the case
were. 1 believe his election would be a
great benefit to the people of the state
and the administration of the law by
our highest court.
w. H. Dickson-I have a very great
admiration for Judge Baskin as man
and a lawyer. He is well qualified for
any judicial position.

Boise, Ida, Oct. S0.-One of the big
gest mining deals in the history of
Idaho is on tap in the Buffalo HUMP
country, a recently discovered gold
camp.
H. A. Cohen, manager for Captain De
Lamar was there last week, negotlat-
ing with the owners of the Buffalo
Hump group, the main ledge of which
is over 80 feet wide, and the average
assay values of the ore $40 gold 10
the ton, some of the ore going into the
thousands. The offer made by De La
mars representative is particularly
sensational, owing to the fact that the
mines are developed to no great depth.
Cohen offered $500. 900 for the group, but
the owners demand $500, 000. Negotia-
lions are still pending, with splendid
prospects of a sale being made.
