tion for the pardon circulated by Mrs.
Harris and which petition reached
Governor Buchtel some days ago.
The announcement of the pardon
came as joyous tidings for Mrs. Har-
ris and the five children, No one
will begrudge the worthy family their
happiness.
Harris was sentenced to not less
than one nor more than two years in
the penitentiary. He was granted q
stay of sentence of forty days, 80 that
an application for writ OF superse-
IDEAS might be made. The appllca-
tion was denied last week. Sheriff
Schrader expected to take Harris to
the prison tomorrow. However, all
along Harris has seemed confident
that he would not have to don u
convict's garb. and the announce
ment of the pardon seemed to come
as no surprise to him.
The pardon is certain to create a
considerable sensation throughout
the county and many people will anx-
iously await full explanation.
Governor Buchtel has issued slS
pardons within two days.

the effect that "men higher up" were
as guilty of irregularities as he.
true?' And, again, Was Harriss in
tlmation and threat that If he was
sent to the penitentiary he would
tell few things and show up
some people" so effective that polit-
ical friehds deemed 1t best that he
should be pardoned and allowed to
go a free man?
There seems to be little doubt in
the minds of those who have learned
the details of the case that Harris
DID pad his payrolls and DID col
lect money that was not due him.
Then, If he was guilty, why is he
freed without ever serving day in
the penitentiary?
Harris charged that he was per-
mitted to pad his payroll If he de-
