In Conviction.

I'VE. the jury, find the defendant
guilty In manner and form as charg-
ed in the Information"
| The words fell as sharp knives
from the lips OF District Court Clerk
J. b. Pearce as he read the verdict
of the Jury in the case OF John Z.
Godding. When the audience which
had packed the court room long be-
fore the session opened, heard the
slow. deliberate tread along the cor
ridors announcing the coming Of the
IL men who held in their hands the
fate OF the defendant, the silence wa.
profound. Only the buzz Of electric
fans and the tick OF the clock broke
the silence as the jurymen filed slow
Iy in and took their places.
Are you agreed upon a verdict.

in turn handed it to Pearce. winnie
God ding sat staring into space. his
brea tn coming in short gasps as he
hste led to the fatefu words.
Tn jury was out two hours and
the verdict was returned at 7:40.
Au orney Stevenson took exception
to tn verde and asked for time in
which to prepare an application for
new a.rial. Ten days was granted by
the court for this purpose. Steven
son then asked that his client be ad
mitted to bail and Judge Rizer grant
ed the request. placing the amount a
$4,000 the same as his former bond.
Stew enson, Cranston and Glenn pro
tested in vain. They begged for tim
even until Monday noon to raise the
bond, but the court refused to listen
to their pleas and informed them tina
he could not consider the request
that this was Saturday night and
that their time was short, this being
matter over which the court had
| no control.
George Hammond who went to Roc
ky Ford this evening to secure bonds
men. returned shortly after 10 o'clocl
and at 1880 the bond had been sat

fellow" and simply carried out the
committing the election offense for
which he was sentenced. Second. he
Is running the Democratic state cam
paign, and we all know the Democra-
tic party needs his guiding genius
more now than ever before.
But 1t does seem to the average
taxpayer that you should make some
effort to collect this fine which the
district court and the supreme court
say he owes the state.
II you do not want to see the pris-
on sentence enforced and also object
to payingthe $500 fine for Julius. why
would 1t not be a good plan to call
for a popular subscription from the
Democrats throughout the state to
pay this lawful fine demanded by the
court?
A popular subscription is a popu-
lar thing at the present time.
You remember a Democratic news
paper undertook to collect a popu-
far subscription to pay Senator Pat
terson's fine before the supreme
court, amounting to $1,000. Well
that paper collected over SO before
the lists were closed.
You also doubtless know that of
the $11.50O popular subscription al
ready collected by the Denver News
for the Peerless Orator Of the
Platte. approximately 10000 Of 1t
was paid by Charles J. Hughes. Jr.,
and other corporation candidates and
prominent party leaders in this state
this leaves about $500 that has been
collected from the common people"
In small dribs after a frantic effort
covering over two months.
However. you should not permit
these unfortunate experiences to dis
courage you. All you have got to do
Is to let the dear public know that
Honest john" wants the julius Aich-
ele fine Of $500 for connection with
election frauds. paid. and they will
just swarm up to the counter and pa.
1t.
Moreover. II 1t is. known that you
really desire the sentence of 60 days
in Jail to be RENTED during good
behavior doubtless the cou-t will deal
leniently with your campaign mana
ger because nobody wants to be too
hard on political party when 1t is
down.
Amt you going to help julius out
in this matter, Honest ohn?"
People will get to making remarks
about you the first thing you know;
they don't like a nan that will not
stand by his friends when they are
In trouble. and almost in Jail.
Don't you think 1t is dangerous to
keep the public waiting at time
like this?
