Dear Sir:-In answer to your COM
munication numbered ID rs under date
of the 10th inst, l beg to say that while
I have a natural prejudice against the
execution of criminals, still | believe
that this punishment is one of the best
safeguards which we have In deterring
persons from committing crime. ! have
carefully considered the question which
you submit to me, which Is whether I
have any facts to present which would
warrant Interference of the executive
in reduction of the sentence, and must
reply in the negative. AS counsel for
the defendants, assigned by the court
70 represent them upon an Indictment
found, / examined into the facts and
details of the case and must confess
that i'm all of the experience which /
have had, directly and indirectly, with
criminal law, | have never known of a
ease IN which the death penalty was a
more fitting punishment for the crime
Of homicide. Each of the defendants
plainly stated to me that what he did
was done with the most absolute de-
liberation, being affected neither by
frenzy OF any description, nor intoXica-
zion. Each defendant explained to me
that he was well aware OF the unlaw-
fulness of their assault and homicide
and that the law of the country from
which they came is identical with the
law of this country. Each man seems
TO be possessed of a normal mind and
Of sufficient intelligence to enable him
TO carry on the work of n laborer in his
station Of life. So far as the law is
concerned, the homicide was committed
with the most undeniable premedita-
zion and neither from the standpoint of
legal ethics or from any normal senti-
ment does any reason occur to me why
there should be any executive interfer-
Rnce in this matter.
VERY truly yours,
carl S. SMITH"

Martin hed4c.

On New Years night at the home OF
Mr.. and Mrs. M. s. Martin, occurred
the marriage of their daughter Maud
to Oliver ID. Hedge, both OF this city.
Promptly at 6 o'clock the bridal party
appeared and in the presence OF rela-
tives and friends, Rev. Davis of the
Christian church performed the mar
riage ceremony. Mr.. A. b. Chrisman
of Alma oficiated AS best man, and
Miss Laura Hedge, sister of the groom,
attended as bridesmaid. The bride
was gowned in steel gray silk and
wore white carnations. The brides.
maid wore changeable silk and the
groom and pest man in the customary
black. Immediately after the cere-
mony and congratulations the COM
pany repaired to the dining room
where an elaborate supper awaited.
Both parlor and dining o were
beautifully arranged with carnations,
ferns and smilaX. Mr.. and Mrs. Hedge
were the recipients Of many expensive
and substantial presents too numerous
to be recounted here. On the next
day, Tuesday, Mrs. A. Hedge, mother
of the groom, gave a sumptuous din
ner to all the guests at the wedding
Mr.. Hedge having been elected sheriff
they took official possessiun January
4th, of the county Jail. Both Mr.. and
Mrs. Hedge have resided a greater
part of their lives in the vicinity OF
Red Cloud and are highly esteemed
by all who know them. They have
the best wishes of all for "a happy
prosperous life.

RuShtOn Home Burned.

Joshua Rushton, living southeast Of
Red Cloud, had the misfortune to
lose his home and household goods
Tuesday afternoon in a fire which is
supposed to have originated from a
defective fue. Neighbors went to
the aid of MIR. Rushton, but the fire
had gained such Roadway that the
building and it's contents we're de.
stroyed. Mr.. Rnshton was particular
ly unfortunate in having allowed his
insurance to lapse a couple of weeks
previous, having intended to attend to
the matter upon his first trip to town.
The loss is total.

CITY WINS.
judgment for the City Against Farm
ers' and Merchants Bank
BulldlnA.

BuII0lnS.
In a decision handed down by the
Supreme Court Wednesday the judg-
ment Of the district court is affirmed
and the city of Red Cloud is given
judgment in the long-drawn-out legal
battle to determine the ownership Of
the Farmers and Merchants bank
building. This Is the suit which
grew out Of the transportation Of
the money realized from the sale Of
the electric light bonds voted a few
years ago, which funds were deposited
in the Farmers and Merchants bank
just before its failure and at a time
when the officers of the bank knew it
to be insolvent. The city has o in
every step of the litigation, and the
attorneys for the city, Messrs. Nc
Neny and Mercer, are to be c%ongratu-
lated upon the successful termination
OF the suit.
The decision m at an opportuhe
time, and should have a favorable
bearing upon the electric light bonds
to be voted upon next Tuesday. The
termination of the case in the city's
favor will place us in an excellent
financial condition and knocks the
props from under one of the strongest
arguments used by the opposition to
the bonds.
1t is figured by those in position to
know that the income from the build
ing will be equivalent to . per cen,
interest on $4,000. The waterwork:
refunding bonds draw but AZ pei
cent, and it is believed the electric
light bonds can be ne gotiated at ever
a less figure-probably a per cent
This will give the city plenty of extr'
money with which to carry out tn
proposed improvements.
Boost the bonds!

BurllnStsn Hotel Opened.

The Burlington hotel, under the
management of j. ID. Grams, was for
mally opened New Years day. The
house has been newly furnished
throughout aud thoroughly over
hauled, and starts out with a liberal
patronage. Everyone who knows Mr..
Grams knows that he will give his
customers the best possible service,
and we congratulate him on his bright
prospects for a successful career in
his new business venture.
The Red Cloud chief., 1906-01-05

The first of the week meo went
to AL Slaby's home on Seward street
and deliberately wa'ked Tor drove)
away with a 200 pound hog which he
had in a pen in his back yard. Mr..
Slaby says it is an absolute impossible
ity for the hog TO have made its escape
from the pen unassisted.
Jake Nustein has closed his cigar
factory in this city, has packed up his
goods and is ready to remove to ST.
Joseph, Mo-, az soOn ms the revenue
collector arrives to ''check him out"
Mr.. Nustein has done well in Red
Cloud, but his interests in St. Joe de-
mand his attention. He ia a good citi-
zen, and we are sorry to lose him.
Many people do not understand why
the city council has fixed no definite
cost for the proposed new electric light
plant. While the matter has been
thoroughly investigated through cor.
respondence and an approximate
estimate of cost arrived at from the
experience Of other towns similarly
situated to Red Cloud, it was thought
best not to go to the expense OF hiring
an expert To come here, ut a cost OF
500 or $50, until it was know
whether or not we would have a plant
From the best information obtainable
a plant suitable for this city will cos
between $S, 900 and $40 900.
