ORCHARD WOULD
PREFER TO DIE
Facing Death for Steunenberg
Murder, He Asks No
Pardon.

Boise. Ida March 27,--The state par
don board will meet in regular session
next Wednesday and in order to take
up for consideration the matter of re-
hitting the sentence OF death pronounc-
ed upon Harry orchard, the self-con-
fessed murderer of Frank Steunenberg,
II will be necessary that an application
for such clemency be filed with the
board.
In sentencing Orchard Judge Wood
recommended to the board that the
death sentence of Orchard be RENTED,
ana stated that under the common law
the state was morally obliged to remit
the sentence because OF the service
Orchard had performed in turning
states evidence against Charles III.
Mover, William d. Haywood and Geo.
a. Pettibone.
The attorney general has given an
opinion that under the laws of Idaho
the pardon board cannot act upon
Judge Woods recommendation alone,
that an application must be made TO IL
i'm Orchards behalf. Today Frank II.
Wyman. Orchards Attorney by virtue
of appointment by the court, visited
Orchard in che pen, explained the stu
alton to him and urged him to make
such application and agree TO appear
before the pardon board in persons. Or
said that he had committed tie crime,
and felt that he should pay the full
penalty.
Whether or not Orchard will listen
TO other appeals that will be made to
him is conjecture, but Mr.. Wynan
stated this evening:
"If no one else will make the proper
application to the board, l will make II
myself 1t will be my duty as Orchards
attorney"
Under no circumstances can the
board act upon the application at the
Wednesday meeting; as the application
has to be filed and advertised four
weeks before the board can finally act.
The date for sentence Is May 10.
The pardon board meets regularly
every three months, and II action Is not
taken in the matter il will be neces-
sary 10 call special meeting OF the
board the last OF April or the FIRST of
May.
