R iGHT TO PAROLE.
Judges Powers Will Be Tested in the
Mite Case.

The state filed an appeal today to the
supreme court in the case against Sam
Gel Mite of Finney county, found guilty
in the lower courts of manslaughter in
the third degree for killing his father.
In his cause of appeal the states at
torney alleged that the trial judge erred
in rendering a judgment in this case
paro1ing .he prisoner immediately fol-
lowing his sentence.
Mite was found guilty by a Finney
county jury of manslaugh.er in the
third degree and sentenced to one year
in Jail W. H Thompson, the trial
Judge, in passing sentence paroled the
prisoner under $1,000 bond to keep the
peace and report every month to the
court.
The point of law involved in this case
would seem to be whether or not the
trial judge has the right to parole a
convicted prisoner confined in a county
jail.

declared that the fact Warden Has
kell had resigned was news to him.
At that time he had not received the
letter of resignation from the warden.
However, he declared that he was not
much surprised to hear of it. The
governor positively refused to make
any statement in explanation of the
affair, but had only good words for
Warden Haskell, saying that he had
done many splendid things" during
his term of office. While the attempt
was being made to. interview Stubs,
the letter of resignation from Haskell
was brought in. and the governor
read it, but still refused to make any
statement. He refused to answer yes
or no to the question when asked If he
had demanded the resignation.
