.BYRNE LOpS OFF JAIL
SENTENCED o. WITNESS
AGAINSTFORMER PALS
Judge Gave Him SO Days After
Arrangements Had Been
Made for Immunity.

Mitchell, S. ID, Dec. 9.-There was q
great deal Of wonderment created In
the city yesterday when 1t was an
nounced that PIN Medley had been
pardoned by Actins Governor Ryrne
from his sentence OF 80 days in the
county Jail, which sentence had been
pronounced Wednesday by Judge
Smith.
Medley was one or the six young fell
lows tried at the present term OF court,
charged with rDbbing the clothing store
of ID, IT. Becker. At the last moment
all the parties changed their plea from
not guilty to guilty. with h hope OF
getting a light sentence Medley, ac-
cording 10 the general sentiment, was
as guilty as the rest. and II could not
be understood why his sentence was so
light, while Koolish. Aspinwali ana
Woodman received six months In the
~penftentiary.
the attorneys connected with the prose-
cution that Medley's pardon came
about through his Willingness TO turn
states evidence to aid In convtcting
the other parties. The prosecution
knew that Medley was not as deep in
the recent transactions 81 the Others
and an effort was made two months
Is 96O w 60NE ~ ~ TO ~ 1922
and he finally consented TO do 80 with
the understanding that he would be
recommended to the court for q fine Of
800. His evidence, however, was not
needed, Relieving that Medley was GO
Ing to turn states evidence, the de-
Tense decided on changing Its plea
When the court sentenced the parties
he gave Medley more than was antici-
pated. I'm tacking on the thirty days
In jail. I'll. FL Hitchcock, Medley's at
torney. went to Pierre on the night
train and presented to the acting gov
ernor the arrangement that had been
made and asked for a pardon. Under
those circumstances the acting gorer-
nor granted the writ, which will arrive
In the city today, and Medley VIII be
given his release this afternoon.
On the night OF the robbery Medley
was but slightly Implicated In the work
that was done, and because OF his con-
dition he was used more OF a tool In
helping to get away with the goods
than involved in any actual crime.
Sheriff Berry expects to take Wood
man. Asphalt and Koolish to the
penitentiary the first OF next week.

The GOVERNOR
Determined TO
ENFORCE LAWS

After an investigation of the law,
Governor West has come to the con-
clusion that he can not only bring
criminal proceedings against officials
who fail to enforce the law, but that
civil proceedings may be brought
against their bondsmen and also to
restrain them from drawing their sal
airy, and he intends to invoke all three
Of them against those who fail to en-
force the laws rigidly
While some officials have complied
with requests made on them and are
enforcing the laws, others have shown
a disposition to ignore the governor,
and it is these that he will subject to
these prosecutions unless they imme-
dlately mend their ways and enforce
the laws. In addition he will, wher-
ever the emergency demands it, call
the militia out and put to rout all
places existing in violation of law.
Against some of those who have
failed to obey the law the governor
has already gathered evidence and he
is in a position to proceed against
them at any time. Whether he does
is dependent on the showing they
make in the immediate future, as to
the enforcement Of the law. Those in
immediate danger is the sheriff and
his deputy of Crook county, the city
officials of Redmond, Sumpter, and
also of Huntington. The sheriff has
not cleaned up the towns in his coun-
ty as the governor feels that he should
have done, and the city officials have
also failed. Against the others the
collection of evidence is also going
forward and proceedings will be
brought against them just as soon as
sufficient evidence to convict is ac-
cumulated.

The Hills Not Idle.

The following is from the Ontario
Argus of recent date and is simply in
line with the accepted theory that the
Hill people are gradually bringing the
lines of contact close together for the
completion Of the system that by 1915
will embrace Idaho, eastern Oregon
end California, which will close all the
Hill gaps.
Grading contracts have been let by
the Hill system for the so miles be-
tween Grangeyille and New Meadows,
says the Argus, work to be started at
Grangeyllle and continued toward New
Meadows. 1t is claimed that this i'm
portant information is direct from re-
liable railroad sources and that the
Hill system will soon be prepared to
let contracts for grading a roadbed
from Weiser TO Klamath Falls, Ore
gon, which is located east of the Cas-
cade mountains and a little north Of
the California line From there the
road would probably be built through
to San Francisco in time for the big
fair in 1915.
The p. & |. N. has recently received
combination pile driver and dredg-
inc machine which ia IN ba nut into
immediate use to place the track in
the canyon between Weiser and Mid
vale in first class condition. This ma
chine is capable of doing the work of
100 men.
It is now conceded that p. & I. N
IS an important link in the Hill road
