Perjury and Subornation as
Interpreted by Webster and
BY the Statutes in Grim.
inal Jurisprudence,
Who the Guilty Parties Are

There is but one construction
that can be placed upon the re
marlSable explanation of the com
bine's editor in last week Dem
ocrat, and that is u confession
of the fact that the Democrat S
aft davit of ownership gave two
names of parties who haven't a
dollar in the Democrat, and new
er did have, and omitted the
names of three parties whose
money is now in the Democrat,
and was at the time the affidavit
was made.
There is just this to be said Of
that affidavit: If it will stand
the acid test of the courts, then
ali affidavit of ownership isn't
worth five cents, as by such atli=
4 davit no mortal can tell who owns
! the paper and who doesn't,
AS an illustration, if that affi-
davit will hold water, then there
wasn't any occasion for there
having been an actual sale Of the
Herald to II editor a year ago.
All that would have been ncces.

An Explanation.

In all Legislative bodies 1t Is
customary for member to Of
ten arise to explain his vote be-
fore he casts it.
In the case of the Brewers AS
sociation, misnamed "The Colo
RADIO Business Mems Leag1e,
the Herald has contracted to run
their arguments as an advertise
ment for term of ten weeks for
$4,000, the first installment Of
which appears in this issue.
When the League wrote US about
the advertising some months ago
we told them that we would con-
tract with them by inserting in
the contract WITHOUT any claims
on the editorial policy Of the Her
aid by the said league by reason
of said advertisement" which
said provision was incorporated
in tho contract
TIL, Herald is thus not gag
ged by the ad. It believes in
local option ard home rule; and
we find upon analysis, that the
League believes in prohibition.
We challenge any may to say
Why it is right to force profii-
bitionon ones neighbors
and not on those of a towns
ship, or a county, or a state, or
the nation.
The League believes In pro-
hibition and so does the Herald
The League beolieves in home
rule ard so does the Herald
The League believes in 2rohi-
biton ir counties and smaller
divisions. and the Herald dosn' t
believe the League has any more
right to force prohibition on
townships and counties than the
Herald has to force it OF the
state or nation.
But we have contracted to run
their ads. and shall do so as per
tie letter of the contract.

Some Stale Candidates

AS next week we shall give
special prominence TO the affairs
of the county, we shall this
week notice some democratic
candidates outside.
AS previously and on different
occasions stated in the Herald,
Thomas Patterson has opposition
in his own party, but we believe
he will be the next governor of
Colorado, and we believe that he
of right should be.
AS stated by the Herald at the
time of the transfer of the News
plant, we considered it's loss to
the party a calamity, as under
the brilliant Patterson it was do.
ing yeoman work for the party in
this state.
There isn't any questioning the
fact that Patterson is one of the
ablest men in the state or ma,
tion; and there isn't any ques,
tioning the fact that he isa fight
er, and Of the kind that COM
mands the respect Of his oppo-
nents.
Mr., Patterson's advent into
the gubernatorlal ring at this
time is opportune. 1t is a time
when a strong mana man hav-
ing convictions and the courage
Of them, man with determin.
alton, stamina, and backbone,
is headed in the State House.
The Herald knows of no rea-
son why the demo Gratis should
not come solidly to the support
of Hon. Edward Keating for re-
election to congress.
AS, however, in the case of
Patterson, Heating has
opposition (some of the
same opposition) in his own par
ty, As also in the case of Pat
terson, Keating has the courage
of his convictions, and is also an
indefatigable worker.
1t is enough for Baca county
and Colorado to know that Bryan
ana Wilson want Heating back
in congress, as indeed they do
the entire Colorado delegation,
and want them returned with
the practically solid support of
the party.
We believe that Hon. Edwin
V. Brake is the logical nominee
of the party for secretary of
state. He is in harmony with
the administration and the par
ty, and would be a. co.worker
with Patterson in the affairs of
of the state. He has been con-
nected with the state depart
ment il. 4 subordinate capacity
long enough to know every cog in
the wheel, and would be like an
old hand at the mast wheel.
Hon. Fred Farrar should be re.
nominated and reelected as at
torney general; and Chas. Leck-
enby, whose ad. you will find
elsewhere would no doubt make
good as state auditor.
Other candidates for nomina.
ton on the state ticket we hav-
MT sufficient informa-
ton of to make a recommended
ton; but we believe that Baca
county should line up pretty SOL
idly for those mentioned.

Slloot-the-Shoots Victims
of the Baca- County ~
Tammany Combine.

The Herald recently adverted
to the slaughtering of a certain
candidate for a certain county
Office by those who organized or
are at the head of the Baca
county Off Gals combine, and
stated that it wasn't the first
time nor the last time, but sim
ply ONE time.
The Herald has also adverted
to the fact of how the outfit
would smile on a man until he
could be OF no furthur use to
them, when they would barrel
him usually called "canning"),
shoot him over their shoot the.

as he was jolted from crag to

way to the final down-and. out

One of those they smiled on
very effulgently and effectively
was the former editor of the
Democrat; then they barreled
, him very carefully and shot him
over their rapids, while thei,

with a kind of savage instinct

Herald ought to know that it il
a serious thing to be accused o
making false affidavit.
J Yes, it is; and the editor o
the Democrat, and the other!
concerned in the matter. ough
to have thought of that at the
time the affidavit was made.
The Herald knows just how
serious it is TO make a false atfi
davit; and that the Democrat, ant
those who induced it's editor t.
make that ownership affidavit
may know. we here give the pen
alty for such affidavit, as taken
from Mills Annotated Statutes
section 1914 of the criminal code
IN perjury and suDornation, as
follows:
Every person having taken a
lawful oath OF made affirmation
in any judicial proceeding, or in
any other matter where by law
Al oath or Affirmation is required,
NIo shall swear or affirm will
fully, corruptly ana falsely in IL
matter material TO the issue or
point In question, or shall suborn
any other person 10 swear or af.
firm as aforesaid, shall be deem
ed guilty of PERJURY or suborna-
ton Of perjury, as the case may
be, and upon conviction thereof
shall be punished by confinement
in the penitentiary for II term
not less than one year nor more
than fourteen years.
Webster defines subornation
rs the sin or offense of procur.
ing one to do a criminal or bad
action, as by bribes or persua.
ton; to procure (another) to com
nit perjury"
The penalty for influencing
anotter to make a false affidavit
is the same. as perjury itself,
and is not less than one yenr in
the tiary, nor more thar
fourteen.
And through all this matter is
standing out in bold relief the
one fact that that ownership aft
davit didn't give the government
the information asked for, and
ithat-the government to this day
doesn't know, officially. who
owns tie Democrat
In the matter Of the suborners,
the question remaining is as to
who are the guilty parties who
influenced the Democrat editor
to MAKE an affidavit that didn t
give the government the mfor-
nation asked for, and that would
MT stand the test of the courts,
The Demo: rat editor is a law
yer, and when those parties
wanted him to make that atfida-
Wit he should have told them the
consequences to himself aud TO
them, and that he would always
rather be on the outside looking
in, than to be on the inside look
ing out.
Indeed, that would have been
the right thing to have told
them when they first approach
ed him and wanted him to be
their cats-paw editor; and it's
the thing he'll wish he had told
them when they have found the
man they want to take his place.
for he is booked for the rapids
just as soon as they can find that
man.
The Herald will now wait t,
find out how many $500 owner
ship aftidavits it can get in time
to help out the fair committee.
