DAILY GOES FREE.

The Plea Of Former jeopardy Wins Out
Before Judge Allen.
Thomas Daily has not been acquitted by
a Jury of his peers Of the charge Of steal
ing ore from the Logan mine. He has
escaped punishment for his crime, how
ever. as thoroughly a. though jury had
said he didn't steal. He escapes on a
technicality-possibly the only way he
could have escaped. Messrs T. M. Pat,
terson and c. B. Ward. his attorneys,
raised the plea of former jeopardy and
Judge Boughton asked that Judge Allen
of Denver hear the motion. The Jude
heard it and held that Judge Boughton
erred in dischargirg the jury which tried
Daily. 1t will be recalled that one juror.
w. T. Hill of Magnolia, discussed the
case during its TRIAL and frequently ex-
pressed the opinion that Daily couldn't
be convicted. These statements coming
TO the ears Of the court. Judge Boughton
had witnesses to his conversations called
in and examined, and then called the
juror from the box. sternly reprim anded
him and discharged him from further at
tendance and the jury from further con
sideration Of the case. Judge Allen say S
this was deplorable conduct in juror Hill
but as the defendant had not been con.
nected by himself or counsel with the
jurors wrong doing, the court erred 10
discharging the jury. There is no re-
Election on Judge Boughton intended"
said Judge Allen. Judge Boughton has
asked me to hear this motion and am
doing now what he probably would do
in the presence of this motion" The
court held that Daily had been in jeop-
ardy and. therefore. could not be tried
again.
There Is no appeal from this decision
hence Thomas Daily goes free.
The people were represented by Dis
trict Attorney Patton, Mr. Prince Haw
kins and Ralph E. Esteb Of Boulder.

A. to Poata,ster.

"A dispatch in the papers this morning
states that Mr. J.. L. Moorhead has been
recommended by Senator Wolcott as
postmaster for Boulder. We dislike to
comment on this. as it will likely be taken
as an expression Of personal disappoint-
ment. but will say that if Senator VOL.
colt had deliberately planned to democrat.
ize and defeat the Republican party in
Boulder county he could rot have chosen
a better method. The overthrow Of the
party in this county in the first place was
not due SO much to the silver question as
to the belief that it was being run in the
interest of a certain few, most Of whom
deserted to the enemy or climbed the
fence when the hour Of trial came.
The Recommendation is made in the
face Of petition signed by all the county
chairmen for several years back, by
nearly all the prcsen, precinct chairmer,
by all the Republican editors Of the
county, by most Of the city officials, by
the Grand Army men and other leading
citizens. in fact by those representing al
most the whole working force OF the
party in the county, as we'll as against
the advice and protest contained in
private letters of-men who have always
been and are now the party leaders. He
simply slaps the whole party in the face
and tells them it makes no difference
what they think or desire; it changes al
most certain victory into probable de,
feat, because it will disgust both those
who stood Loyalty by the party and those
who bolted to have the same clique who
wrecked the party restored to power and
receive all the ewards.--Boulder News

Vegetation in the Aretie..

The extremely rapid growth Of vege-
tation in the brief summer of the Arctic
regions shows the great Importance of
sunlight, as distinguished from heat,
in bringing plant life to full develop
ment. Twenty hours of sunshine out of
every "a have far more effect than six
hours of sunlight could if the average
temperature OF the whole day were ten
degrees or ever twenty degrees higher.

The LaHarpe News, up-to date, is
the only paper i'm the county which
has spoken out against the recent mr.
ticle in the REGISTER about the pres.
ent being good time 10 build new
court house ia lola. The News spake
at length and found unthought-of ex-
cellencies in the accommodation of
the present court house and undream-
Ell OF beauties in its architecture. The
Elsmore Enterprise, with its usual in
cisiveness accuses the News of really
meaning by its protest that the county
ought to wait until La Harpe Is big
enough TO have the county seat. 1t is
really most gratifying to note that
this weeks News disclaims any such
meaning. In other words, 1t is reas-
enable to suppose that some time in
the future the News will help carry a
proposition to vote bonds and build a
court house in Iola's park which shall
be representative of the county's
wealth and importance. That is GER
tainly pleasant, neigh borly manner.

Forged A. W. Bcck's Signature.

Forgeries have not been common
hereabouts of late and 1t is not sur
prising to find the latest outbreak a
very bold and very bad one. A
stranger appeared at the store of
Fulton Bros, in Bricktown, aud
cashed check for some fifteen dol.
lars. The check was in favor of A. l..
Davis and was drawn by A. w.
Beck. Fulton Bros. are comparative
strangers here and yet they knew
that Beck's name was GOOD and they
never suspected the check until they
took it to the Bank of Allen County to
get their money. Tom Bowlus. the
cashier, promptly turned down the
check as forgery. 1t was written in
a bold hand and no attempt what
ever made to initiate Beck's signature.
