PARDON FOR JOHN JOHNSON.
Ciemency Recommended by A. w
Wishard-Judge Bakers Attitude.

One of the last acts of A. w. Wishard
before retiring from the district attorneys
office was to recommend to the Depart
ment of Justice at Washington the pardon
of John Johnson, former president of the
Iogansport National Bank, who was SEN
fenced TO the Ohio penitentiary May %,
1897, by Judge Baker. of the United States
Court, on a charge of misappropriatng the
funds of the bank. The court gave John
son term of ten years. Mr.. Wishard
recommended that he be pardoned after
serving live years, his term to expire May
30, 1902.
Since Johnson's incarceration there have
been numerous attempts made to have him
pdrdOned, and at one time a petition for
his pardon was circulated through CasS
county and $3.50 citizens, many of whom
mad been patrons of the bank, signed it
without murmur. When the petition was
sent TO Washington ii was discovered by
Johnsons friends that one of the rules Of
the government authorities is that the dis
tr1ct attorney and trial judge must sign
applications for pardon At the time both
Judge Baker and Mr.. Wishard declined -
place their names on the petition, and the
application for a pardon was not acted
upon.
Mr.. Wishard said that he made the
recommendation for a pardon believing that
III there any hope for Johnson it would
be by showing him some leniency. Reports
had been received from the prison authori-
ties he said. to the effect that Johnson
conduct had been excellent, and If there
years in prison should be enough. Judge
Baker is out of the city. but ii is under
stood that he will withdraw his objections
to Johnson's pardon.

three graduates showed their individual
cleverness in separate numbers. The mon
