Declares State Not Actuated BY
Malice But Desire to Pun
ish Crime.
WRONG WAS AGAINST PEOPLE
Representatives Pass Resolution De-
clarina Prosecution of Murderers
viii Be Continued as Vigorously as
Before and Protests Against Charges.

BOISE, March e.--The House of
Representatives today passed reso-
luton on the Steunen berg case, which
after reciting that the murder was one
peculiarly against the whole people of
the state, and asserting the willingness
OF the people to prosecute, declares
that the prosecution should be con-
tinued with the same vigor that has
characterized it so far; that no stone
should be left unturned in the effort
to bring to justice those guilty Of the
crime and affirming confidence in the
ability of Governor Gooding to give
the case the same loyal attention as
In the past. The resolution also de-
clares that the state is not actuated
by malice, but Is simply trying to
probe a great crime and punish those
at the bottom of 1t. 1t affirms that
the state is guarding the interess Of
he men accused as zealously as 1t pro-
tests the right of the prosecution to
bring out the facts before the jury
The resolution protests against the
widely circulated charge that the state
is trying to convict men irrespective
of their guilt or innocence. The right
of the accused to far and impartial
trial is assured, but at the same time
il sideclared that the state will never
rest until this crime is fasened upon
those responsible for it.
