Chouteau County Convict Pardoned

According to advices from Helena,
a pardon has been granted to Joseph
Proulx, a Chouteau county convict
who is serving a sentence of thirty
years in state prison for assaulting a
young girl. The trial of the accused
in the district court convinced the
jury of the guilt of the defendant, al.
though the testimony of the complain
ing witness was practically the only
evidence against him.

ing witness, vas herding sheep, four
teen miles west of Malta, in Chouteau

She was sixteen years old then. Ac-
cording to her story, a man CARRIED in

beard long, rode up, forced her at
the point of a revolver to dismount
from her horse, assaulted her and
rode away. Proulx was arrested in
Wisconsin about a year later, and
brought here for trial.
Proulx has been in prison eleven
years. "The cas- presents a very

BOARD OF REVENUE MAY LEASE
WOMEN. CONVICTS TO PLANTER


cally unfit to be put to work on the roads
1t has been the experience of the coal
mining companies who leased the convicts
that not more than so per cent of con-
victs, including the women, are fit for
manual labor, consequently about half of
the county convicts will have to be taken
care of by the county officials.
The Pratt Consolidated Coal company,
which has leased the county convicts for
years, made arrangement with Smith
Mcqueen, who owns a plantation of 5000
acres at Prattville, to suitcase the wom-
en- convicts at So per month, and they
were put to work on his farm. All able
bodied women were put to work in the
fields on the Mcqueen plantation and
were thus enabled to earn their board
and keep.
Judge Abernethy suggested to the board
of revenue that they could make a con-
tract with Mr.. Mcqueen as the coal COM
pany had done to take all the negro
women convicts and thus instead of the
women being an additional burden they
gestion letter has ben forwarded to Mr..
Mcqueen asking him to meet the board
of revenue at an early date and for him
to outline his system of working the
women on his farm. He is expected to be
in Birmingham early next week to meet
the board and to submit any plan he may
have in reference to this class of con-
viots.

workers and in the fact that the spot
where once he saw little of value is now
to have a twenty-five story structure. Mr..
Ensen did not make any comment upon
the work, but just looked deeply con-
cerned.
When the steel pier finally arrived Eu-
gene F. Enslen, Mr.. Weston, Mr. Mark
and a few others climbed down into the
pit to see the first bolts placed. When
the steel workers hoisted the pier and
it was ready Mr.. Enslen personally placed
the first bolt. He seemed to be unusually
pleased that steel was actually placed on
the site.
II. c. Junker, of the steel workers for
Bergendahl & Bass, the steel contractors,
assisted Mr.. Enslen to fasten the first
and then placed the remaining bolts.
Mr.. Enslen when he fastened the bolt did
not make any speech or formal dedication
of the work.
The steel workers, in charge of Mr..
Junker to the number of eight, will con-
tinue erecting steel, as it is here. and
Is the plan to finish that work without
any delay. Mr. Junker said yesterday
that he would have a crew of perhaps 80
men here when the riveting was started
and the job would be carried through with
a rush.
The event of yesterday is the second
time this month that steel has been start
ed on 100000 structures here. The first
was the Roden hotel, which was started
some weeks ago.
