GOVERNORS REASONS.
Why He Refused to Commute the Death
Sentence of Joe Hurst.
THE HURST

An account of the hanging of Joe
Hurst at Glendive says: Rev. Father
Claude of Dickinson was with the con-
demned man on the scaffold. He ac-
.cepted the Catholic faith and expressed
implicit faith in the hereafter. He
marched to the gallows alone, saying
to Deputy Twible, You needn't hold
me, George, l can stand alone" After
the moose was placed around his neck,
he said, Gentlemen, this is a terrible
mistake. bear no hatred toward any
of you. l forgive you all as Jesus
would do"
At Dab the body was taken down
and delivered to his friends.
Rev. Henry Warman made public a
statement this morning in which he
claims Hurst admitted that he killed
Cavanaugh.
The Helena herald of Wednesday
published the following synopsis of
Governor Smiths letter to Hurst's at
torneys wherein he declines to COM
mute the condemned mans sentence:
Governor Smith has declined to in
terfere with the judgment of the courts

murder of Dominick Cavanaugh, sher-
lit of Dawson county, on December 23,
lS3S. h governor announced this
decision at noon today by making pub
lic a long letter he had written to c.
p. Connolly, H. J. Gaskell and G.. W..
Myers, nurst's attorneys, who recently
appeared before the governor in behalf

The governor reviews the leading
contentious Of Hurst's attorneys as to
there being ample ground for execu-
tive clemency on account of the cir
cumstantial character of the evidence
and the absence of evidence connect
ing Joe Hurst with the crime except
the testimony of witnesses Gilmore
and Ward, and concludes that the
showing made by the attorneys is not
sufficient to warrant his interfering.
The governor criticises severely the
articles that G. p. Connolly printed in
the Anaconda Standard rejecting up-
on the trial of Hurst and attacking the
citizens of Dawson county. Referring
to his belief in Judge LIQUIDS sincerity
and fidelity to his sworn duty in over
ruling the motion for a new trial the
governor says: Il cannot be forced
into the belief that Judge Loud would
sentence any man to be hanged unless
he was thoroughly satisfied with the
verdict rendered by a jury in his
court" The governor reviews the SUI
preme court opinion and comments
upon the pardoning power, saying in
effect that if he allowed sympathy or
personal feeling to control his actions
there would be no necessity for courts
or juries. "Such exercise of the power
would be legal and judicial anarchy"
says the governor. Concerning Gill
more's testimony, the governor, says
it stands mistaken from the first to the
last.
There is a sensational feature of the
governors letter in which he makes

CONFESSION.
Expected by the Authorities-Good
Work of the Officials Connected
With the Case.

The mystery of the Stark murder
promises to be completely and finally
%unraveled through the persistence OF
States Attorney Allen, Coroner White
and the officials connected with the
case. The confession Of the elder Jen-
kins made to States Attorney Allen at
the county Jail Sunday was not unex
pected by the authorities, who have
believed all along that the crime was
committed by the son and that the
father was e~ndeavoring to shield him.
1t is believed that some further facts
will be learned in connection with the
case, but the entering wedge has been
driven and it is believed it will be only
n matter of a little time until the
whole circumstances are brought out.
States Attorney Allen has had charge
of the movements that have been made
by the authorities in the case, and is
entitled to credit for the manner in
which he has handled it.

CONFESSED.
James M. Jenkins Makes Confession Of
the Manner Of the Murder of
August Stark.
Says the Deed Was Done by His Son
on the Night They Returned To-
gether from Wilton.

States Attorney Allen Sunday Sc
cured a confession from James NJ.
Jenkins of the manner of the murder
of August Stark.
From the story told by the father,
the murder was committed by his son
ira, on the night that he and Stark
returned from Wilton.
The confession of the father states
that Ira Jenkins and Stark returned
Friday from Wilton. and in the course
of the evening had some discussion
over a claim owned by Stark which
the young jenkins wanted to purchase
:;lnd Stark refused to sell.
He (James Jenkins) went out about
40 o'clock to care for a sick COW he
mad on the place. AS he was return
ing, Ira met him with the statement
that he had killed Stark in the house.
;Stark's body was found in the house,
and it was dragged outside by the
SON.. The old man did not know what
became OF it. They then agreed to
tell the story that was told, except
that on the details they became con-
fused. Stark was shot and killed.
The old man did not know how the
wound on his face was inflicted.
Stark's trunk was opened by the son
and $40 taken out. The father stated
that he had told the story testified to
by him before the coroner's jury to
shield his son, but that he thought
that now he ought to tell the truth.

public a letter written by Attorney
Myers to c. P. Connolly, explaining
why Hurst did not take the stand. The
letter VENT to the governor by mistake.
1t was naturally damaging as it stated
why Hurst was not put on the stand
and also why evidence was not intro
duced as to his good character because
it was feared that evidence would be
introduced attacking his reputation,
the defense learning there were wit
nesses ready to testify that Hurst's
reputation was bad.
The governor says in conclusion that
after patient examination he cannot
believe that he would be justified in
interfering with the judgment of the
courts and that the law must take it's
course.
Referring to the opinion of the SUI
preme court, State VS.. Hurst, the gov
ernO %recites:
I'VE have given II attention care
fully and patiently to the examination
of the whole of the evidence and we
cannot say that the result reached by
the jury is not justified by it, or that
a reasonable doubt of the defendants
guilt. A1Clc ILc ouplclllc COuIL VI
the state say that they have carefully
and patiently examined all of the evil
dence and that they find that the YER
dict OF the jury was justified by that
evidence, nor are these men able to
say that the evidence did not prove
the defendant guilty beyond a reason
able doubt.
The counsel claim now that the rea-
son they did not put Hurst on the stand
was that they did not think any case
had been made against him, and in re-
ferring to this the governor says:
THE true reason, however, is to be
found in a letter written by Hon. G.
w. Myers to c. P. Connolly, dated
March ., 1900. Among other things
in that letter, Mr.. Myers says: 81 do
not believe Hurst could have been
safely put on the stand in his own be-
half owing to the number of people
who would have contradicted him as
was explained to you by Gen. Haskell
while you was at Glendive. Now, as to
why HurSt's good character was not
put in evidence, under the feeling ex-
at the time of the trial it would
not do, while we could find a number
of people that would swear they knew
Hurst for a number of years and that
he had a good reputation for honesty
and integrity, but we learned upon in
that there was a number of
leading ciliZens that would say that
his reputation was bad, so we rested
that point on the fact that he had been
nominated for sheriff." This letter
gives the true and exact reasons, no
doubt, why Hurst was not nut uDOn
the witness stand. This letter is
among the papers filed with me by Mr..
Connolly.
