A REMARKABLE CONVICTION.

We are sometimes prone to criticlse
juries, but In the long run they seem
able to get their focal lenses adjusted
and criminals who are able to escalS
on ordinary technicalities are brought
beneath the swinging sword of justice.
William M. Miller, the head OF the
Franklin syndicate, which promised us
customers $50 per cent on their invest
ment, is doing time in states prison
for having cheated people by what al
most any man with an ordinary
amount of brains should have known
was a swindle. His legal counsel during
the time he was doing the swindlins
act was one Col. Robert A. Ammon.
After the conviction OF Miller, his
counsel was arrested on the charge OF
knowingly having received money that
had been filched from the customers.
His trial ended few days ago In con-
viction. 1t is reasonable superstition
that he will serve several years IN
prison, the same as the man for whom
he was acting as legal adviser.
Ammon is a lawyer OF ability. In
fact, his ability is alleged to have been
away and afar in excess of his good
Judgment and honesty. The ethics OF
his profession will not excuse him IN
taking money he must have known was
not earned honestly. That he knew
the concern for which he was working
was a swindle. pure and simple. was
taken to be proved by the fact that he,
quit 1000 ito the good" for less than
n years work-Leadville Herald Dem"

1.-THE constitution of this state guar
antees to all that courts of justice
shall be open to every person and q
speedy remedy afforded for every In
jury to person, property or character;
and that right and justice should be ad-
ministered without sale, denial or de-
lay. Your claim of the right Of being
heard before legal tribunal Is, there
fore. amply provided for.
by the constitution 1t is expressly
provided that the powers OF the gov
eminent of this State are divided into
three distinct departments, the legisla
tive, executive and judicial, and no per-
son or collection OF persons, charged
with the exercise of powers properly
belonging to one of these departments
shall exercise any power properly be-
longing to the either Of the others, ex-
cept as by the constitution expressly
directed and permitted.
ANY action on my part would,
therefore, be in violation of the consti-
tuition as an attempt by the executive
department to exercise the powers OF
the judiciary.
by another provision OF the same
touSlltullou IL 10 dlsO tApIeboiy btdNCN
that the military shall always be in
strict subordination to the civil power,
and until the civil power has been ex-
hausted and found incapable Of pre-
serving order and protecting persons
and property. and the fact Is made to
appear to the governor by the sheriff of
the particular county. or the mayor of
the particular city or town, the gov
ernor is not empowered to call out the
militia.
You WILL therefore. readily see, as
no such fact has been made to appear
to me by such authorities, that have
no authority to furnish military pro-
lection. as your communication possi-
bly, suggests. and that your remedy is
to be found in the institution and
prosecution of proper action in the To-
cal courts.
You will also appreciate the chaos
and anarchy that would result II every
person upon his statement OF false i'm
prisonment. had the right to apply to
the governor for military interference.
Il have, therefore. to inform you that
under the constitution and laws of this
stae. am vested with no right. power
or authority to act in the matters re-
ferred to in your communication. Re.

upon the state OF Texas. aud the cam

State offers the peculiar anomaly OF u

Of liquor is limited TO the cities and
the remainder are threatened with cap

2i3 organized counties In the state,
and twenty-four unorgalized counties,
the latter being attached to organized
counties for judicial purposes only.
The counties that are entirely wet
number only eleven. and TO these can
be added those with some wet and
