Held for Murder
Out on Bonds

There is considerable feeling over
the action of the justice court in JAY
bidge in releasing l.. r. Pope, who
was held to appear before the grand
jury on the charge of numbering Ed
ward Jugleard near that camp on
October %, 1910, on a 81 900 bond
1t is very unusual that any person,
charged with murder is released on
bonds at all, especially when the tes-
timony is as strong as in this case
At the preliminary hearing last week
the evidence showed that the mnr-
dered man had been shot in the back
and that he had no fire arms on his
person at the time The trouble orig
mated over the Jumping OF a claim.
Pope tainted the man he had shot
just before he died, saying: eff you
go to heaven you'll jump no more
claims there" Both men we're pop
nlar in Jarbidge and each side has its
story. but there is too little value
placed on human life in our new
