Governors Statement.
In signed statement, Governor
Mann said in part:
Il followed this case during the
trial, a..d all its horrible facts showed
that a crime, cruel and malicious, had
occurred
In the decision of every question
which was presented to the able and
impartial judge who presided at the
trial he was careful to give the bene-
fit Of every reasonable doubt to the
prisoner; that he did not err is shown
" the refusal of the supreme couct
Of appeals to new writ of error.
Guilt Established.
That Beattie is guilty of the wjlfpl,
| deliberate and cruel murder of his
young wife, | have not the slightest
doubt, nor is it insisted that there
shall be any greater relief offered than
the commutation of his sentence to
imprisonment for life.
Il do not think the affidavits of
Paul Beattie, printed in the papers,
or any other evidence or consideration
brought to my attention sufficient for
that purpose.
ITO grant a respite in so plain a
case would be to set precedent;
| would be to temporize with the law
and to encourage appeals to the SUI
preme court with the sole purpose of
gaining time believe the best way
to pfevent such crimes as this is to
punish them adequately: certainly,
! speedily. Therefore the judgment of
| the circuit court Of Chesterfield will
be carried into effect without interfsr-
ence from me"

Idaho's Governor Says Pardon Was
Fitting Sequel to Interference of
Special Agents With State Federal
Courts. 4

boise, Idaho, Nov. 15.TGovernor J..
II. Hawley today gave out a signed
statement addressed to the people Of
Idaho, in which he condemns the ac-
ton of President Taft in granting a
pardon yesterday to Clarence w. Rob
nett, bookkeeper in the Lewiston Ma
uonal Bank Of Lewiston, Idaho.
lie was convicted OF embezzling
funds Of the bank and was sentenced
~ the federal court at Idaho Springs
to ten years Imprisonment. He never
entered upon service of his sentence.
I feel that the pardon of Robnett
is a fitting sequel to the proceedings
in the United States court during the
last four years while the special as
sistants to the United States alto. ey
general have been usurping the office
Of the United States attorney ana
have been running the cases in which
the United states had been interested
Win q high hand regardless Of justice
or deceney," the statement sets forth.
Not Surprised.
! am not surprised at this pardon
In fact, no act ever done in connee-
ton with the courts of Idaho has so
brought justice into disrepute and
weakened the courts in the estimation
Of our people For more than four
years in every case in which the
United States Nas interested the reg
nlar prosecuting officers have been
retired and these special assistants
have been given full control.
Idaho Injured.
4Without the slightest interest in
our state. caring nothing for our peo-
pie, simply desirous of establishing
reputation in the department of JUS
tice, these special prosecutors have
done more to injure Idaho and retard
its development since the fall Of 1907
than all other causes combined.
The injustice Of this action of the
president, inspired without doubt by
the special prosecutors, will long
ranIle il the minds of our citizens
and will inspire them with a whole
some contempt for such disgraceful
methods.
1T is probably Unfair to severely
blame President Taft directly for this
unspeakable action, as he undoubtedly
acted at the request of ttorney Cen
eral Wickersham, who evidently had
been in collusion with his associates
in charge Of this prosecution"

inexperienced in railroading Probably
some businessman or farmer will be named

Since the Danish supporters from Elk

agreed yesterday to give $4,000 for the
