George Peterson Draws Maximum
Penalty and His Lawyers
Roast from Jud6e.

The efforts Of julius g Cooley and his
associate counsel. ]. w. Haley, to get a
new trial for George Peterson met with q
rude. rude shock Saturday morning,
Peterson was charged with having
burglars tools in his possession and was
found guilty by a jury last week. His
attorneys filed afidavits from two OF the
members OF the jury claiming that Deputy
County Attorney Ellick in making his ar
gument made certain statements regarding
Peterson which were not supported by the
evidence. They also alleged that the in
formation did not aIlege a crime
All morning they argued. When IL was
over Judge Troup sentenced Peterson 10
thirty days IN the county jail and two
years IN the penitentiary, which is the
maximum. Before pronouncing sentence
the court scored the attorneys roundly for
attempting to make so much out OF q
small case where the evidence was all
against the prisoner.
ITO my mind the state has been done an
injustice IN this trial. II an injustice has
been done. Mr.. Elick In making his argu-
msnt. was interrupted % frequently by
counsel for the defense that believe hi
quit before he was half through. see
positively no excuse for making so much
out OF a little tWo-by-four case like this
II counsel for the defense In his flights Of
oratory had confined himself to the facts, q
he had remained in America and not turneC
the limelisht on the downtrodden Berfs Of
Russia. Il would have been Of more effect
while Il is right and proper for counse
to make an EFFORTS on behalf OF theil
clients. I think m this case matters hav'

mediation Of self-supportinE young women
Mrs. Joseph NJ. Cudahy IL the moving
spirit in the enterprise and associated with
her is a number of prominent Omaha
women. The women have planned the
organization Of a self-suppoTting self
governing club patterned after the well
known Eleanor clubs OF Chicago, which
provide comfortable, safe homes for work
ing women OF email income.
The proposed club will. In no sense, be
a charitable institution and will be entirely
free from sectarian influence. It win be
managed by a committee chosen from the
women, who compose II and acting under
the guidance OF a competent superin-
tendent, who will act as matron. The house
will accommodate between forty and my
women and the expense 10 each viii be
considerably less than the same accom-.
mediation could be procured for elsewhere.
The women promoting the plan win act as
a board Of directors or trustees. but the
personnel OF this board has not yet been
dennitely determined. The house is being
refurnished now and announcement regard
ing application for membership in the
club will be made soon. George 4 Co,
have negotiated a one years lease OF the
house with a tract Of ground 80 feet
square, which will provide ample yard
room for the home.
The large grounds surrounding tho home
will be used by the women without re-
striction until they are sold by the Agents

Of the AFFIDAVIT makers"
The court declared Peterson was 'the
luckiest man who had ever come into the
court ROOM" because If he had been
caught Ave minutes later he would probably
have been charged with a crime, the maxi
mum sentence OF which might be ten
years. Being caught before he had ac-
complished his evident purpose he was
charged with a lesser crime.
The attorneys for defense gave notice OF
appeal TO the supreme court and asked
the Judge to arrange a supersedeas bond.
Judge Troup said that bond would have to
be accepted by the supreme court.
