nAHANEY FREED
GETS UNCONDITIONAL PARDON
Pardon Board Extends Clemency to
the Slayer Of Fred Womack on
the Radcliffe Estate in Gun
nson County.

Denver Nov. 21.-The state parGons
board last Friday granted an uncondi-
tional pardon to Frank A. Mahaney of
Gunnison county, anu finally closed one
of the sensational murder cases in the
history of Colorado.
William Radcliffe. an Englishman,
owned and maintained large private
game and fish preserves in Gunnison
county. Frank A. Mahaney. who is
said to be a half-breed Indian was in
the employ of Radcliffe. He shot and
killed Fred Womack a citizen of the
county. who was pOaching on the Rad
clitfe estate.
Shortly after the murder Radcliffe's
country home and much of his prop
erty was RACED by mob of ranchmen
and residents of the surrounding coun-
try. The case was taken up between
the United States and British govern
ments. Radcliffe was awarded $500
for losses sustained at the hands OF the
mob.
The consideration of the Mahoney
case by the pardons board attracted
much public interest. Seven of the
jurors who convicted Mahaney, to-
gether with fifty business men of the
county and many of the residents OF
Fruita. Mahaneys home town signed
the petition for his pardon. 1t was
pointed out that Womack had threat
ened Mahaney's life on numerous oc
casions and that he had been repeat
edly warned against his practice of
poaching. Other eXtenuating Circum-
stances were cited to the board. After
remaining in session for half the day
the unconditional pardon was granted
The property owned by Radcliffe in
Gunnison was one of the most beauti-
full mountain residences in the state.
The grounds embraced a number of
beautiful lakes and hills. Game and
fish abounded. Radcliffe was seldom
at the place and the natives were op-
posed to him because he refused all
requests for permission to hunt and
fish on the estate.
Many of the residents of the county
according to testimony introduced at
the trial, were in the habit of poach-
ing on the Radcliffe premises. Rad
cliffe hired Mahaney and others to
guard his property. Mahaney held a
deputy sheriff's commission. He claims
that Womack was the most persistent
of all the poachers. He had been or
dered from the premises several times
Mahaney came upon Womack one
afternoon early in the year 1902. He
was fishing in one Of the lakes and re-
fused to move. An encounter followed
In which Womack was shot dead.
Popular opinion Immediately sided
with Womack. For a time it was
feared that Mahaney would be lynched.
Within a short time after the shooting
a mob raided the premises of Rad
cliffe.
After a sensational trial 'Mahaney
was sentenced to five years in the pen
itentiary on April 26, 1903. He served
about year in the county Jail before
his trial.

Race Prejudice
Creek Indians in Council Wrought
up Over Negro Question.

Okmulgee, I. T., Nov. For
the first time in the history Of the
Creek Nation prejudice has assert
ed itself in the Creek council.
There are number negro freed
men members in each house who
have been elected by the Greek
citizens and their own race. A
number Of the leaders among the
indians object to allowing them to
sit members Of that council and
are seeking excuses to have them
disqualified.
These members contend that the
Freedmen Of the Greek Nation are
no longer wards Of the government
because the government has remov-
ed the restrictions upon the sale Of
their land. With the removal Of
restrictions they claim the freed
men have lost their right to assist
in making laws of the nation. The
indians that take this view are
mostly defendants from former
slave holders and those who sym
pathized with the South in the civil
war.
The feeling against the freed
MEN legislators has manifested itself
in various ways during the present
session of the council. Several
times Indian members have object.
ed to allowing them to make
speeches in the council especially |
when they showed disposition to
occupy much time.
Many of the Indian members, |
however, recognize their rights TO !
sit in the council. The freedmenl
were made citizens of the Creek
Nation when they were freed from
slavery and have shared in the al
lotment rights Of the Indians.
been recognized as citizens
Of the Greek Nation as we'll as the
United States government, it IS be
Iieved by the more conservative In
aians that they cannot be deprived
Of representation in the council.
