days proceedings, wrote the follow
ing:
This was the day for agreeing on
the amendments to the land bill which
are considered essential. Most of these
were proposed by William O'Brien.
They covered several important Ques-
tions, including demands for more lib
eral treatment of the congested dis
tricts and of the laborers.
THE proceedings were extremely
harmonious. There was an animated
but good-humored discussion of the re-
tention of an eighth of cent as a rent
charge, proposed by Mr.. Davitt and
myself. the former representing views
in favor of the naturalization of the
land, while / put forward those OF
peasant proprietary. Ultimately a res
olution was adopted condemning the
eighth, but retaining technical rent
charge"
One of the most important amend
ments was that proposed by Michael
Davitt. that the principle of the Ameri-
can homestead law be added to the
land bill. to Safeguard the peasants
from the results of improvident bor-
rowing and the operation of land grab
bers and land jObbers."

YOUTSEY'S STORY
OF GOEBEL MURDER

Frankfort. KY. April 1S.-Henry E.
Youtsey on Thursday for the first time
told on the witness stand the story OF
the killing of the late Governor Goebel.
He named James Howard. the defend
ant, as the man who fired the shot.
Youtsey said he saw Howard for the
first time a few minutes before the
shooting Howard had letter sent
him several days before by the witness
at Governor Taylor's dictation.
Youtsey said he took Howard into
Caleb Powers office, which had been
especially arranged for the shooting.
He showed Howard the Marlin rifle.
the bullets and the window from which
the shooting was to be done. He said
Howard asked what he was to get for
the shooting.
What do you want for it?" Youtsey
said he asked. and Howard said he
wanted a pardon for killing George
Baker. 81 told him he could have that
and more, too" said Youtsey.
About that time" said the witness.
"Goebel came in the gate and point
ed him out to Howard and then ran
from the room. AS l disappeared from
the steps to the basement l heard the
crack of Howard's rifle"
II stayed in the Office Of Assistant
Secretary of. State Matthews" said he,
for few moments and saw Matthews
break open Caleb Powers office and
find the guns that had been left there. -
Youtsey said that at the time of the
shooting he was private secretary to
Auditor Sweeney. but that while his
political status was not definitely fixed.
it was understood he was to have a
good place under Taylor.
Governor Taylor" said Youtsey,
directed everything we did. We re-
garded him as our leader and he was
morally responsible for all we did. We
knew we had the governor and the
pardoning board behind us and we
were not afraid of punishment for kill
ing Goebel."

COLORADO STATE AFFAIRS AND
DOINGS AT THE CAPITAL CITY
Lawyers Bill Vetoed.

One of the bills of Senator Rush and
a measure that received the support
of many lawyers, II. b. 1926, was We
toed by the governor on the 18th inst.
This measure provided that Mills An
notated Statutes should be the law
and that future editions of the book
should have equal force. The princi-
pal reason for the veto was that the
law would have meant conflict in
the statutes. The governors reasons
for the veto are.
"First-The bill provides, among
other things. that each and every edi-
ton and revision thereof mills An
notated Statutes and Mills Annotated
Code) and supplement thereof Is here
by recognized and declared to be legal
and official | believe 1t would be un-
wise to attempt to legalize and make
official the editions, revisions and sup
plements of this very meritorious
work. not yet in existence, for who
can say what may be included or con-
tanned in future editions. revisions and
supplements thereof.
"Second-The annotations and cita-
tlons contained in Mills Annotated
Statutes form very large portion OF
the work, which, under the provisions
of this bill, shall be deemed to be the
law, unless the contrary is made to
appear This provision, II enacted
into law, would doubtless lead to con-
fusion. The bill should have been
drawn so as to confine its scope to
the text of the statutes, Omitting the
annotaiions and citations"

Another Bank.

There is a persistent rumor to the

that Dick -Airman and several of his
associates are back of the scheme and
that the institution will be doing bu-
siness in very short time. The
scheme as near as can be learned is
to utilize the building now occupied
by Davis & kirmans store The fact
that the firm is taking stock and have
been looking around the city for sew
eral days convinces the people there
is something doing
Dick Kirman, on being asked if the
new bank was to be established did
not deny the report. He rather lent
confir nation to the report. 1t is be-
lieved that the new institution will
commence operation at no very dis.
tant date, as it is said that a bank
vault is on the way and the other nee
essary arrangements have been made
to start business.
1t is sure thing that if Mr. Kirman
comes to this city and opens bank
that he will do a share of the bu-
siness, as he is one of the popular
men of this city and has the conf
dence of all who know him.
