MURDERER SENTENCED FOR LjPo
"~ 70 PARDoNED.
Crime Was One Of the Worst An.
nails Of the
State.

Fargo. The last and closing
chapter in one Of the most notorious
murders ever committed in North Da'
kota is now closed. Joe Remington,
sentenced to prison for life for the
murder of George Flett at Arthur, this
county, has become q free man as q
result Of the clemency Of tn, state
board Of pardons.
The murder was one of the most
cold.blooded crimes in the state and
is wildly recalled by the pioneers Of
this section. Remington was raised
at Casselton, between here and Arthur
and in the fall Of 80 was employed
on = farm near tho latter place. He
took load Of wheat to Arthur, and in
those days the elevator agents car
ried large sums of money, frequently
paying in cash. Remington saw Flett'a
roll.
Afterwards Remington went to Min
neapolis and for q short period drove
a hack. He formed tho acquaintance
Of notorious woman there and soon
spent what money he had savel. Her
demands on him recalled the money
he had seen Flett carry.
Remington quietly returned to Ar
thur, concealed himself in the hay loft
at the elevator and in the darkness
when Flett came in to feed the horses.
Remington brutally beat him to death
and escaped with the money. The
murderer was arrested at La Crosse.
where he had gone with the woman.
When he returned to Fargo he
pleaded guilty and received life sen.
tence. The state board of pardons
commuted his sentence last summer
to % years and now Remington has
stepped from the penitentiary at Bis.
marck . free man.
Since the recent lynching at Steele
many editors Of the state have boldly
asserted tho mob violence was direct,
" due to the leniency shown BY the
pardon board to Remington, who was
guilty Of one of the most brutal muir.
ders in the history Of the state.
Remington has had a remarkable
record in the state penitentiary and
10 said never to have. violated a rule
Of the institution. He has been 70
garded by Warden Hellstrom as .
"trusty" and for two years had charge
Of the penitentiary exhibit at the state
Industrial show at Bismarck without
q guard.
