Poet is Artistic Brigand.

ROME, June 18.-Romance hangs
round Giuseppe Salomone, brigand
poet and playwright, whose trial has
just begun at Aquila.
Very many years ago Salomone was
all honest shoemaker who loved a
beautiful girl and incidentally orote
verses. Unfortunately he found i
rival in her affections in the pers II
of the village mayor, who charged him
with a murder which had been COM
mitted in the district. Four witnesses
swore to Salomone's guilt, and he fled
and took to brigandage.
Then he killed the mayor and the
four men who had given evidence
him and, throwing himself whole
heartedly into his new profession, .
he terrorized all Sicily by his raids.
When captured he began to wife a
book of memoirs proudly entitle i, The
Last of the Brigands," play about
himself, and also a volume of poetry
which has merit
Salomone pleads he is lover of JUS
tice and virtue, and that it is emily
adverse circumstances that caused him
to deviate from the right path. ON the
{ ccasion Of the recent attempt n
King Victor Tmmanuel's life he sent
a telegram Fl om prison expressing his
joy at the kings escape.
He is fine-looking man, with black
hair and beard and keen, bl ,r eyes lie
appears in court clad in an immaculate
black suit and wearing kid gloves.

HEITMAN WANTS MORRISON

Morrison is Heitman's man Friday
That is about as well established as
any political fact in the state. And nc
man known to be satisfactory to Heit-
man will satisfy the rank and file of
the republican party of Idaho. Heit-
man is everywhere distrusted, and gen
orally disliked His past record is a
pretty certain indication of who's the
darky in the woodpile if Morrison is
elected. Hoffman of all men in the
state, knows the value of political pow
er, as a business asset, and there are
those who are not going to elect IIeit-
mans candidate to the office of gov
ernor Morrison is believed to be
be Hetman's candidate. There can be
no question about it. Defenbaugh was
brought out by Hoffman to kill off
Taylor, and this cleared the way for
Morrison. Hoffman could not handle
Taylor Therefore Taylor would not
do. Morrison had been tried and suited
Hoffman, and Hoffman would like to
have his man once more in power.
There is a devious path running
through the political jungle of idaho,
and there are now well-marked trails
that lead to the dark recesses of the
future One of these leads to the door
of Judge Ailshie, who is reported to
have consented to the bottling ~ of
his gubernatoral bee with an under-
standing that he is to succeed Hey
burn as senator. This report is gen
orally believed all over the state, and
there are good reasons to believe that
it is true. So Alshie will be found
supporting Morrison. Ailshie will be
found, if you go to the bottom, rubbing
grease on the Hoffman machine, which |
when Ailshie lands in the senate, will
land Hoffman on the supreme bench
of Idaho.
There are many others in the ma
chine, but the success of the entire |
plan depends on the election of Nor |
rison as governor this year.

She was suddenly taken i'll there

DR.. Wright arrived at Miss Kelly's

at her side until last Monday night,

Since Saturday there has been a
marked improvement in the happy

Of them was on hand to greet him the
day of his pardon, not having been

| The governor acted upon the unani-

clemency. His offence was the alleged
embezzlement of funds in his keeping

Because an expensive suit of clothes
and an overcoat he wore when he en-
tered the penitentiary is now missing
Convict W. NJ Wilson, assistant book
keeper at the prison, who is soon to
be released, has applied to the state
for a square deal. He insists that he
be reimbursed in the sum of $50. Will
son, who as a free man was careful
and natty dresser, is fearful lest he
be compelled to leave the prison in
clothing much to plain to suit his
taste. The disappearance of the suit |
and overcoat is a mystery. Wilson, |
however, will have returned to him |

CONVICT, FORMER JUDGE
WOULD STAY IN PEN

LINCOLN, June 18.-There is one
who differs radically with the opinion
expressed by number of the convicts
that conditions at the prison arc UNI
I bearable, and that they are ready to
fight their way to freedom. He, on the
contrary, says the conduct of the pris-
on is admirable and so much to his
liking that although he has been
granted an unconditional pardon he
prefers to remain for at least a few
days.
The man is Joseph H. Edmundson,
former member of the Nebraska leg
islature, former judge and former
county attorney of Hamilton county,
under sentence for embezzlement.
When news of Governor Aldrichs ac-
ton reached the penitentiary Edmond
son was called to the warden's office
and informed of his good fortune. He
had served since January last On his
two year sentence.

Warden Mellick told Edmondson he
might depart any time he desired, at
the same time proffering him the usual
certificate and allowance.

Edmondson. 81 have some business in
Omaha that l want to look after before

FAR ROCKAWAY, N. Y, June 49,
The details have just been made pub

of st. Joseph's hospital in Far Rock

young trained nurse, who was stricken
with pneumonia on Decoration Day

vite in person a number of her former

UNFAIR TO WEST VIRGINIA.

C. P. Connolly, in Golfers Maya
zine, processes to discuss political af-
fairs in the State of West Virginia,
If the political information detailed
by Golfers on other subjects is not
more thorough and more accurate
than Mr.. Connolly comments upon
the political situation in this State, it
is not seriously to be relied upon
Wheeling Intelligencer (Rep)
The above occasions much surprise.
1t was generally understood that Mr..
Connolly visited West Virginia at the
urgent request of the Machine Repub-
licans, and from whom he received
his information. If the Republicans
are disappointed in the EXPOSE" they
can place the blame upon themselves,
because the special representative Sc
cured his data from them exclusively
The Democrats, too. are disappoint'
ed. They had hoped TO learn some
thing new, but to their surprise they
have not. Our advice to the Machine
bosses is that in their next attempt
to besmirch honest citizens that they
first have legitimate case and then
employ a competent person to pre-
sent it.

THE GOLFERS "ExPosE."

The article in Golfers Weekly
which purports to give a history OF
the charge of bribery and corruption
in connection with the election of Sen
ators Watson and Chiffon in 1911 is
very disappointing to the Republican
politicians Of this state, who expected
a disclosure of additional details
through the activities of agents of
that undertaking publication, The
Charleston Mail, one of the leading
Republican papers of the state, Is dis
gusted with the article. In an editor.
ial reference to it the Mail asserts
that it is but 're-hash," and adds;
There are thousands of people OF
West Virginia, not all Democrats
either, who have long since sickened
on this whole proposition and who
will find no favorable comment TO
make of Golfers latest butttin on
West Virginia politics. Two years
have now elapsed since the memoir
able session of the state Legislature.
Those who had it in their power to
bring about an investigation of the
charges of corruption and bribery
against the states two present sena-
tors waited more than a year too
long. The long-delayed effort, when
it finally came, fell as fat as Golfers
article on the case will now fall, The
effort at investigation lacked SINGER
ity So does c. p. Connolly's arti-
Gle in Golfers In the utter absence
of evidence of bribery and corruption,
as the case now presents, Senators
Chiffon and Watson are no worse off
after Golfers than they were before. "
Golfers has always been credited
with feariessness in its attacks upon
public men, and it is therefore a fair
statement that it has made the best
case possible against the West Vir-
ginia senators. Golfers represents
tive secured his information from
sources that are unfriendly to Messrs.
Chiffon and Watson, and he found
out nothing which hostile press has
not been charging and reiterating
ever since the election of the two SEN
ators. AS the Mail points out, the
politicians who have been talking
investigation" have not been sincere.
They have realized that they have no
case, and have merely kept sensation
al rumors alive for political effect. =
