Italian vote of Amador. Near the close
cf the campaign Judge John f Davis,
formerly code commission, suggested
TO Tibbetts that he pledge himself in
bis speeches TO the Italians to intro
duce the bill providing for an alter
nate juror in criminal cases. Davis
explained TO Tibbets that there was
such a law in Italy. and that il would
therefore appeal strongly to the Ital-
ians. The fact that a juror had died

expense of about $4,000 on the county
for the retrisl OF q murder case. added

belts got the Italian vote on the
strength Of his pledge and was elected.
When Tibbetts reached Sacramento
he paid Tyler Curtis, an attorney who

Senator i. g. Noorhies put it through
the senate and IL went TO Governor
Budd. who was inclined TO veto the
measure. He told Tibbetts so. but final
