Boise Statesman)

John Sayer, who was convicted Of a
statutory offense in Bingham county
January 8, 1909, and sentenced to
serve three years in the penitentiary
was brought to Boise Thursday night
for an extended visit with Warden
Shook, after running at large since
his conviction. During that time it
is supposed that no attempt was made
to enforce the sentence of the court,
pronounced over three years ago.
Had he started to serve his SEN
tence soon after he was convicted,
Sayer would now have been a free
man, but instead, when the hands of
the law were not upon him, he nat
urally chose not to come of his own
will to the penitentiary to begin his
three years confinement.
The trial and conviction of Sayer
in the courts of Bingham county had
long been forgotten in the rapid flight
of time, except by newspaper man.
Several weeks ago one of the Black
foot papers published an item recall
ing the fact that Sayer had not been
taken to the penitentiary.
Attorney General d. c. McDougall
wrote the prosecuting at
torney at Blackfoot regarding the
matter. He received an answer from
that official saying that he knew
of the case, as it had been
tried before he had assumed the du-
ties of that office. The court records
were stored in a vault.
An investigation was begun at once
which resulted in the enforcing of
The three-year penitentiary sentence
FOR Sayer pronounced over three years
ago.

JANGLE OVER ASSESSOR IN BAN.
MOCK COUNTY ENDED

Pocatello, June Al. B. Case oil
this city was this afternoon appoint
ed county assessor and tax collector
to fill the vacancy created by the
resignation of Assessor Hillman. Fol-
lowing the filing of an custer suit
against him, Hillman filed a $4,000
damage suit against the commission
ers, also suit to GUST them for col
lecting illegal fees. The commission
ers retaliated with a suit for $1,000
for alleged failure to have his asses
ment rolls in shape on the date fixed
by law. Hillman in turn threatened
to bring an custer suit against the
commissioners best friend, the sher-
iff, and they came back with a suit
for $4,000, alleged to be due by rea-
son of Hillman's failure to assess over
a million dollars worth of alleged as
sessable property.
These suits and counter suits piled
up SO rapidly that the state board of
equalization took hand and threat
ened to GUST all the officers RESPONSE
BILE for the delay in asses sing Ban
mock county. When the matter came
to final showdown on trial, before
Judge Walters, beth sides agreed to
a compromise. Hillman was to re-
sign, and all the suits were to be dis
with the understanding that
a Republican was to be named to fill |
out Hillman's term.
This was agreed to by the commits
sioners, but when they discovered
that Case was aligned with the vets
during the last local option campaign
they changed their minds, and it re-
quired all the political influence that
Case could muster, including that of
former Governor Brady, to land him
the job. Thus ends one of the most
remarkable political fights in the his
:ory of the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..

ENGLAND IS MAO
ABOUT HER I5MAY
BRITIsHERs DISPLAYING CoNsID.
ERABLE RESENTMENT AT THE
COURSE OF SENATOR SMITH.

London, April 25.-The British pub
lie is displaying considerable resent
ment a. the course the American SEN
ate committee investigating the II
tanic disaster is taking with regard
to he detention of British subjects
and the manner of their examination.
The attitude generally is taken that
-. Bruce Ismay and the crew of the
Tita lic were convicted before the
hearing.
It is feared that should the senate
condemn the company and crew, its
action would give rise to i'll feeling
between the two peoples.
The dissatisfaction Of the public
might be alleviated if it had a
clearer idea Of the scope of the in
tention of the American investigation
1t is estimated that the senate has
a perfect right to inquire into the
death of Americans, but it Is felt
that tie committee is going far beyond
this.
Some of the questions asked by
Senator Smith are reproduced and
editorially ridiculed in the newspap-
ers today. The Globe refers to the
senator as a born fool and as "a
gentleman from the wilds of Michi-
gan, who possibly is compelled by the
exigencies Of electioneering, to be as
inso,ent as possible to Englishmen.
Unfortunately the investigation is
very much in his hands, and the best
efforts of the more reputable senators
hardly can serve to nullify the harm
he has done"

MARG0NI SAID
SELL STORIES
HEAD OF THE WIRELESS DID NOT
OBJECT TO THE SALE OF
FACTS TO PAPERS.

Washington, April 25.-Guglielmc
Marconi, chairman of the Marconi
company, limited, told the senate
committee investigating the Titanic
disaster that he authorized the wire
less operators OF the Carpathia and
Titanic to sell their stories of the
great SEP catastrophe for publica-
ton. M6I
Mr. Marconi explained that in Civ
ing consent for the sale of these stor-
les ne had not attempted in any way
to suppress general information OF
the wreck.
The inventor of the wireless denied
any knowledge whatever of wireless
messages sent to the Carpathia opera
tors telling them to keep your
mouths shut" and hold out for four
figures" These messages, one Of
them signed "Marconi," were picked
up " the United States battleship
Florida the night the Carpathia was
coming in and forwarded to the sec
retary Of the navy.
Mr.. Marconi declared he never au-
thorized these messages, but did give
consent that the operators should re-
ceive money.
Early in his testimony Mr.. Marconi
told of repeated attempts he made
during Sunday, Monday and the days
after the tragedy to get information
Of the disaster.
