A REWARD OFFERED.

Gov. Hay issued notice last week that
the state would pay reward of $3.50
for the arrest and conviction of Charles
Phillips, who murdered Rawl Seibert
in Ferry county, July %, 1908. This
offer comes late in the day, and is rath-
er modest considering the fearful Grim
inal record of the man for whose ap-
prehenson the money is to be paid.
Besides it is rather insulting to the
party wanted, as it makes him out a
rather cheap guy. Considering the
promptness with which Mr.. Phillips
handles gun, and his accuracy in the
use thereof, $50 plunks hardly stimu-
lateS an officer TO take the risk Ferry
county ought to double the amount,
and then some, for it is worth a strain
on the treasury to know that Mr.. Phil
lips has reached his happy home, where
the shooter shooteth not, and the pub
llc. Aaiaege is relieved of the appre-
population.
Mr., Phillips is widely known, if not
highly respected, throughout this up
per country. His immediate presence
in the past has always created a creepy
feeling of uncertainty as to what might
happen, and his reputation for fear
lessness and disregard for human life
has gained for him, if not respect, at
least careful avoidance of imperti-
nent curiosity. 1t cannot be said that
his company is sought with avidity,
but when he casually drops in no one
is inclined to deny him the freedom OF
the place he may elect to visit. He
has not been doing any visiting to
speak of of late, as owing to his last
spectacular appearance before the pub
lie eye he has gone into temporary
retirement.
Besides shooting up Mr.. Siebert in a
very diabolical manner Mr.. Phillips
killed policeman in Seattle in 1885
without reason or provOcation. The
police force of that city gathered in d
body and ran Mr., Phillips into hole
and pumped much lead after him, but
that individual seems to bear a charmed
| life, as he surrendered, and merged
shy only his right hand, much to the
disgust of the blue coats. a Jury il
Seattle does not consider the cold blood
ed killing of policeman a serious mis-
demeanor, for a verdict was reached
that resulted in sentence to the pen
itentiary of only l. years. Had he got
what was coming to him his other vic
tim, Siebert, would probably have
lived to "a green old age and died {
natural death.
1t is not likely that Phillips will sub
nit to arrest tamely, and if not caught
unarmed, which would be in the Ma
ture of miracle, he will add Other
notches to his gun before death, Ol
capture. As it is hardly probable that
IA Ferry county jury would be as sym
pathetic as was the Seattle jury, cap
ture alive, anyhow, would only he pre-
