GOVERNOR
and JUDGE
DISAGREE
JUDGE GATENS HOLDS THE OF.
FENSE WITH WHICH PRISONER
Is CHARGED Is NOT EXTRADIT.
ABLE BUT GOVERNOR HAS
LAST SAY.

LEO W. Martin is charged with
brutally assaulting his wife, who was
about to become mother, and II
guilty should be returned to Denver
and punished" said Governor West
today in discussing the kidnapping of
Martin by Sheriff Rinker, of Denver,
at Portland Saturday evening, and
their arrest at Newport, Washington,
on the charge of kidnapping. The
kidnapping was committed after
Judge Gatens had held that the crime
for which 1t was sought to punish
Martin was not an extraditable one,
Martin is accused of assaulting
his wife to bring about an abortion"
continued the governor, "and II the
charges are true, Jesse p. Webb, the
murderer, and over whom so much
ado has been made, is an angel in
holiness when compared to Martin.
"Construing the law of Colorado,
Judge Gatens held extradiietaoinuuu
Judge Gatens held that Martin was
guilty of but assault which Is not ex-
tradltable, Th4 laws of that state,
according to his Interpretation, de-
clare that an abortion can only be
brought about by instruments or
drugs Martin assaulted his wife to
bring 1t about, and therefore, 1t Is
held that his case does not come
within the puryiew of the statute,
and that he Is guilty at the most of
no greater crime than an assault"
Quotes Law.
"The statute says" went on the
governor:
"a person charged in any state or
territory of the United States with
treason, felony or other crime, who
shall flee from justice and be found
in this state must on demand Of the
executive authorities of the state or
territory from which he fed, be de-
liyered up by the governor of this
state to be removed to the state or
territory making the demand"
"The only hand that this office has
in the matter is to issue the warrant
based upon the requisition from the
governor Of Colorado, as provided by
law The officers, no doubt believing
they were acting within the law,
have seen fit to take this man out OF
the state

Judge Gatens. He and are per-
sonal friends of long standing and
any difference Of opinion which may
exist between us at the present time,
is not between Gatens and West, but
between the Judge and the governor.

Shibe Park, Philadelphia, Oct. 16.-
One solid swat over the right field
fence from Frank Bakers war club
won the second game in the worlds
champion series for the Athletic here
today by three runs to one for the
New York Giants
The deciding wallop came in the
sixth inning. Eddie Collins had
poked one into the crowd for two
sacks and with the score tied at
to 1, Baker delivered the goods. He
leaned against the ball good and hard
and as he followed Collins across the
home plate, such a scene broke loose
as staid Philadelphia has seldom
seem Thirty thousand fans, who
hung breathless, on the struggle,
split the air with one roar of joy. 1t
was all over, and from that time the
Athletics were never in danger.
The first run for the Athletics was
made in the first INNING, when Lord
crossed the pan on a wild pitch by
Rube Marquard. In the second in
ming Oldring misjudged a double by
Herzog who scored for New York.
when Big Chief Meyers delivered a
nice clean single.
From the start of the game Nc
Graw's beauty, aMrquard, was wild.
In the middle of the struggle he set
tied down but weakened again after
Bakers tremendous drive, and in the
eighth McGraw jerked him out of the
box, sending Crandall to bat. Gran
dali delivered the goods, but Plank,
who was steady as a rock throughout
the game, held the Giants hitless, and
the deed was done. The score:

jury, but to an impartial one." Nell
son, he said, had agreed that he could
give Mcnamara a fair deal and that
certainly qualified him to serve un-
der the code. He and Horton then
cited numerous court decisions
which, they said, upheld their con-
tentlon
Darrow then closed the defense's
side, taking up Assistant District At
torney Horizons contention that the
defense may prove an alibi and
therefore Nelson was compliant.
I'VE may try this and we may not"
he said, but there will be other
things in connection with this case.
To prove the corpus delictu here, it
must be shown that crime was COM
mitted and we have q perfect right
to show that none was. We may
show that 1t was gas explosion,
and then we don't need any alibl
Now what will the state say when
we reach a talesman who believes
that the Times building was blown
up by gas explosion" I don't
think they will argue to permit that
venlreman to qualify. So let's be fair
here. This defendant demands an un-
prejudlced jury; we ask this court to
give him one. Give him his consti-
tutional rights and we'll be satisfied"
Judge Bordwell then announced
that he would reserve decision until
2 o'clock when he will ask Nelson
some questions and then probably
announce his decision

OKLAHOMA SETTLERS ARE
ARRIVING IN THIS COUNTY

The first members of a colony of
from so to 100 families who are
going to locate in the vicinity of
] Barnesyille are expected to arrive
next Monday. They will come from
Oklahoma with their household ef-
fects and settle on the lands they
have purchased. The colony holds
options on about 4 1000 acres lying
close together and this land will be
settled by families who were ac-
quainted with each other in the
east.
With the coming of the colonists
improvements will begin at Barnes
Vile Plans have been drawn for
50-foot front brick store building
/ and a new hotel will be commenced
at an early date. Other buildings
are under consideration.
The plan of bringing large num-
ber of colonists at once has been
! found impracticable and they will
come a few at a time. With small
delegation coming in at time it
will be easier to take care of the
new arrivals comfortably.
| Many other new home makers are
! expected in Weld county with the
advent of warm weather. The real
estate men report that it is impos-
siblie to convince easterners that
the winters in this section of Colo
RADIO are comparatively mild and free
| from billiards. They have mental
pictures of being showed in for sew
eral months with the attendant ter
rors of being slowly frozen to death.
1t is believed that the influx OF
new settlers will be heavy when the
warm weather comes, as there have
been more than 500 inquiries re-
garding irrigated lands in Weld
county as a result OF the land shows
held at Omaha and Chicago last fall.
Northern Colorado was extensively
advertised at these exhibitions and
results are beginning to be felt.
