 The attorney of Wade Oliver, the negro who is under sentence to be hanged on the second day of March, is endeavorng to have the sentence commuted to a life im- prisonment, but the crime perpetrated by Oliver was so brutal that it Is not thought or desired by the majority of the people that the governor will interfere.
