Fillmore, Jan. 24-The county COM
m~issioners met in special session yester-
day and the chairman stated that the
bondsmen of j. S. Giles asked TO be re-
leased. The board then passed this
resolution;
"Whereas, J.. S. Giles, county clerk
in and for Willard county, Utah, on the
18th day of January, A. D. 1899, aban-
doned his office as said county clerk,
and has since that time absented him

any deputy or assistant TO perform the
duties OF said office, n his where
about being unknown to the board of
county commissioners, or any of his
relatives. and
Whereas, The business in said office
is such as TO require the officer to be

Resolved, BY the board of county
commissioners in and for Willard coun-
ty, Utah, hat the office of county clerk

Christian Anderson of Fillmore was
then appointed county clerk for the I'M
expired term of two years. Mr.. Ander-
son stated this evening that he has
made a hurried investigation of the
books N papers of the missing county
clerk, and everything seems TO be all
right, with the exception that Mr..
Giles bond cannot be found.
Giles is still missing. No word of any
kind has been received from him, nor
has any one seen or heard of him since
che week ago tonight. The searching
parties which have been out securing
the country with the expectation Of
finding his body have returned, and it
is now generally believed he is alive
and out of the county. although others
still hold to the idea that his mind was
turned and he wandered off, or that
he killed himself in some out-of-the-
way place. Again the broad assertion
has been made that Giles has met with
foul play, but there is no ground on
which to base such an assertion. For
the past several days people have been
coming in from all parts of the county
to investigate their lane entries, etc,
so far nothing wrong has been
found concerning them.

Washington. Jan. 24.-The protest

ton was taken TEe officials OF the

were heavy, unequaily laid, and col

Cubars thoroughly distrust the institu-
ton for its acts in the past, and it
should not nov be retained in the re-
organization OF the government.

s~i4erations that were urged, General
Brooke maintains that, as a matter of
the United States government,

Iect the Cuban axes at not more thar

Friends May Attempt His Rescue.
Special to The Herald.O

Boise, Ida, Jan. 24.-The board of
pardons today sealed the fate of Dia-
mondfield Jack Davis. the, condemned
murderer of Cummings and Wilson,
the Cassia county sheepmen. The board
denied the application for pardon and
specially stated it could in no manner
interfere with the death sentence,
thereby shutting off any application
for communication.
This action was taken in the face of
strong affidavits that jeff Gray killed
the two men to protect his life and that
of J. e. Bower. Both Gray and Bower
swore such was the case, but the board
came to the c~onclusien it was a on
spiracy.
This ends the proceedings, so far as
the state is concerned. of one of the
most sensational criminal cases in the
northwest. 1t is said an appeal will
be made to the United States court,
but this will likely prove of no avail.
Feb. l is set for fpavis' execution.
There are rumors that an attempt will
be made by his friends to take him out
of the Albion iail.

Washington, D. c., Jan. 21.-The sill
yer Republicans of the senate and
house, in the adoption of formal reso-
~lutions approving the action of Chair
man Charles A. Towne in removing
state chairmen of the party, have given
unequivocal endorsement to the posi-
tive position taken by him. The reso-
buttons were aimed directly at former
Chairman Broad of Colorado and Sen
ator Lee Mantle. formerly chairman Of
the Montana silver Republican state
committee. Senator Mantle says he
does not recognize the authority of his
colleagues in the matter. He says he
considers himself a silver Republican,
actively identified with the only silver
republican party in his state, and he
does not see that the resolutions have
anything to do with the case" The
silver Republicans in congress, how
ever, regard the resolution as placing
Broad and Mantle both, definitely and
permanently, outside the party pale.
M'CLEARY BILL DEAD.
Representative McCleary of Mime
sofa. h sponsor of the Hugh Hanna
greenback retirement scheme in the
house, has formally withdrawn the bill
for which Mark Hanna'S brother has
been laboring so hard since the election
OF 1896. This bill was originally drafted
by the committee appointed by the In
dlanapolis bankers convention and was
one upon which the gold men had set
their hearts. When Mr.. McCleary
withdrew the bill he made a feeble ef-
fort to explain that it might be re-
presented after a new vote IN commit
tee. But when Representative Rich
ardson Of Tennessee cornered him with
an inquiry as TO how and when it was
to be reported, he lodged the question
by declaring that he was neither a
prophet nor the son of a prophet. It
requires no prophet, however, to sue
cessfully predict in the premises. The
bill Will never be heard Of again at
the present session of congress-, and
probably not at the next.

priation bill, with fair prospects of NC
