The people of the county have
almost overlooked the fact that,
unless the Governor intervenes
to commute the sentence of the
condemned man, that there will
be an execution in this city, or
rather west of the city where for
mer executions were held, on the
9th of this month. Wash Hugh
es, convicted at the last term of
the circuit court of the murder
of Rich Jones, is the man under
sentence of death and the Su-
preme Court has already con-
firmed the finding of the lower
tribunal fixing the date of the
execution on next Thursday.
AS matter of fact very few
people in this city believe that
Hughes will suffer the death pen
atty. There are extenuating cir
cumstances in his case, so much
so that many of the best people
of this county, who are familiar
with the circumstances and facts
attending the killing, are on the
petition TO the Governor for a
commute ton of the death SEN
tence. In addition to these petit
tions a large number of letters
have gone up to the Governor
from prominent men here asking
that the death sentence be com,
muted to life Imprisonment and
among these was letter from
the District Attorney.
In view of these representa-
tions it is more than probable
that Governor Vardarnan will
commute the sentence. Hughes
killed man who had broken uT
his domestic relations and after
he had been viciously assaulted
by his victim. At the time OF
the verdict it was freely stated
that the penalty was excessive
