result of extraordinary efforts being
made to save Charles l. Hyde, the
millionaire South Dakcka land man,
from the penitentiary.
A petition to pardon Hyde before he
has served single hour of his sen
tence in the Leavenworth federal
prison, was presented to President
Taft by Copgl essman Burke and State
Historian Doane Robinson of South
4 Dakota.
Republican politicians of great in
fuence not only in South Dakota, but
in many other states, are lined up in
support of the effort to induce the
president to keep Hyde out of prison.
On the other hand the postotfioe de-
partment, which brought about the
conviction of Hyde for conducting his
fraudulent real estate business through
the mails, is protesting vigorously
against any Communication of the SEN
teDoe.
AIDED BY POWERFUL FRIENDS
Hyde, who is .reputed to be worth
s3O0O,O00, is in Washington with a
group of powerful friends and high
priced attorneys, directing the fight to
retain his freedom.
He was on the point Of being taken
to the penitentiary when Assistant At
torney General Harr directed the fed
eral authorities in South Dakota to
agree to stay the commitment proceed
ings 80 days, pending the appeal to be
made to the president.
This stay order was procured from
Harr by Attorney Wade Ellis, who was
retained by Hyde couple of months
ago. Ellis formerly was assistant to the
prosecutions

SENTENCED TO YEAR IN PRISON
He was indicted in 1911 for misuse
of the mails, the charge being that he
had misrepresented the value of lots

In the latter part of 1911 Hyde was
convicted in the federal court at Sioux
