or Banking Laws.
Especial to the .aNews.oo


Washington, ID. c.. Feb. 2O.-Mr
Roote of Butte. Mont, is here in the
interest of r, b. Shepard of Salt Lake,
who is under sentence for violation of
the postal laws. II appears from state
ments made that Shepard was law
yer in Salt Lake; that he was known
as one of the most prominent collect
ors of rare books in the west
Some years ago ne decided
to go into business as book
seller. The postorice inspector, evil
IDENTIFY desiring to lay trap for him,
wrote from Denver asking Shepard
where he could obtain certain books OF
an erotic character, Shepard relied that
might be procured In Paris. This, II
appears, was n violation of the law
Shepard was indicted, tried convicted
and sentenced To term IN the peni-
Tertiary. The higher court declined 10
reverse the Judgment OF the trial court
and now Mr.. Roote is here TO urge the
president TO grant pardon.
Roote Is fortified in his appeal by
letters from jurors who rendered the
verdict, the judge who pronounced SEN
tence and scores OF the best citizens OF
Salt Lake. Senator Borah, who has
known Shepard for many years. said
today that nc Will do all In his power,
because he believes Shepard is abso-
lutely innocent OF any intentional
wrong doing. There IS a precedent for
pardon before the convicted man be-
gins his term OF Imprisonment, and IL
is peculiar that II Is another salt Lake
case which affords the precedent. IT Is
that OF Bacon, who WAS pardoned by
President Cleveland. after conviction
for a technical violation Of the banking
laws
