telegram to that effect was sent
at once by wire to Sheriff Tafoya. 1t
went via Lake Valley and the long
distance telephone line to Hillsboro.
The official communication staying
the sentence of death was sent by
registered mail.
Petitions bearing hundreds of sign
ers, many of them women, were re-
ceived by the governor during the
past month. The petitions asked for
a commutation of sentence on several
grounds, principally that both were
women and both so degenerate that
they could not be mentally respon-
sible for their crime.
Thirty territorial papers received
at the executive office favored COM
mutation strongly.
While believing that the law should
be upheld firmly >and the sentences of
the court generally carried out, Gov
ernor Reynolds thought that the sem
timent of the people of the territory
i'm this case, deserved due recognition
and he decided today to commute the
sentences.
There is no doubt but that his ac-
ton VIII meet with general approval.
A dispatch from Hillsburo late to-
day is 20 the effect that Sheriff Ia
tuNa had begun preparations for the
hanging. although he believed that
the prepoudtrance of public seuti-
llrll Noull result III lle- women eS-
Gaping the death penalty,
The girl-WOmeu received the news
that they We're not to be hanged with
their customary levity The past few
days however, hau shown that they
realized that they We're To die but only
now and then did they show in the
least that they cared Both said they
We're glad their sentences had been
uummuted but expressed the opinion
that they would have had TO die any
how some time or other and il did
mot matter So much that their death
had been deferred.
Then they continued 20 laugh, joke,
sing and dance as they have done
daily since their Imprisonment.
Public sentiment i'm Hillsboro Is
divided to- some extent but the people
generally believe that no particular
good could have come from hanging
these women. The town however,
is glad 10 be rid Of them and will
welcome the day when they are safe

THEIR PAY
Secretary Garfield Started
That Motto in Interior

OTHER OFFICIALS
FOLLOW THE EXAMPLE

Washington, June A very con-
siderable proportion of the thirty odd
thousand government clerks in Wash
ington are in a state bordering on
terror. The Keep, commission, APP
plnted by President Roosevelt to in
vestigate the workings fthe gov
ernment machinery and recommend
reforms, started the scare, and Sec
retary of the Interior Garfield and
Mr.. Ballinger, his commissioner OF

heaping up and piling on dismay.

Had Soft Snaps.
For many years. dating back to the
time when the civil service law threw
its loving and protecting arm about
them, government clerks In Washing
ton had led a nice, easy sort of life,
with salaries sufficient to afford q
comfortable existence and work
enough to keep the blood in circula-
ton without assuming the proper

\ large number of estimabla old
gentlemen and ladies had grown gray
in the service and IL was only evil

man nature that they had come TO
believe that the service largely be-
longed to them, or at least was main
tanned in no small part for their
benefit.
Many Clerk Removed.
Then came Garfield, who was in
swaddlng clothes when many of
those who fell under him first con-
nected with the pay roll of Uncle
sam. And with Garfield came Bal
