''The action of the pardon board
aroused great deal of indignation
at the time and a largely signed pc
tition was sent to the members to
have them reconsider their action
but they refused to change, claiming
the pardon was closed incident.
Since the recent lynching at Steele
many editors of the state have boldly
asserted the mob violence was direct
ly due to the leniency shown by the
pardon board to Remington.
Remington has made a good record
in the state pen and is said never to
have violated a rule of the institu-
ton. He has been regarded by War
den Hellstrom as trusty and for
two years had charge of the pen ex-
hibit at the state industrial show at
Bismarck without guard
To a considerable degree Reming-
ton has also educated himself while
in the prison. He is now between
forty and forty-five years old and it
is said has the assurance of a c1eri-

had saved. Her demands on him re-

carry.
Remington quietly returned to Ar
thur, concealed himself in the hay
loft at the elevator and in the dark
ness when Flett came to feed the
horses, Remington brutal'y beat him
to death and escaped with the money.
Remington was arrested at La Crosse
where he had gone with the woman
When returned to Fargo he plead
ed guilty and received life sentence.
The state board of pardons commut-
ed his sentence last summer to twen-
ty-three years and today Remington
will step from the penitentiary at
