IS NOW So AND
WANTS A PARDON
JAMES GARRINGTON, SERVING
LIFE SENTENCE, IS AFTER
RELEASE.

| Sioux Falls, S. D.-The giving of
official notice by James Darlington,
now serving a life term in the Sioux
Falls penitentiary, that he will ap-
ply for a pardon next month will re-
call one of the most celebrated muir
der cases in the history of South Da-
kota.
Darlington was convicted of the
murder of Alfred Erickson, a young
man, in the early evening of Decem-
Der Z, 1897. An unusual feature of
the crime was that it was committed
in a little shack occupied by Caring
ton near the heart of the Sioux Falls
business district, and while Erick-
son was being stabbed to death peo-
pie must have been continually pass
ing on the sidewalk only a few yards
away. No less than thirty-three
wounds were found on Erickson's
body, any half a dozen of which
would have proven fatal.
Darlington is a veteran of the civil
war and is now So years of age. Gar
rington, soon after the death of Erick
son, was parading around the saloons
Boosting of what a fight he had Just
had. Blood vas upon his clothing.
AS he was a very small man his aud
.itors were skeptical about his story
of the alleged fierce fight in which
he claimed to have been the victor.
While he was in the saloons some
one entered his shack and found the
body of Erickson.
In February, 1898. Darlington was
tried for the murder of Erickson and
was convicted and sentenced to be
hanged. Before the time fixed for
the execution os Darlington on the
gallows his attorney secured a writ
of error, a new trial ultimately was
granted and he finally escaped with
a life sentence. His second trial,
took, place insthe winter of 189s-9.1
Soon after his SECOND conviction he
was lodged in the pcnitentiary, where
he has since remained.
His attorney. who now is dead, all
ways believed that others yer in
strumental in thesdeath of Erickson
and that .Old Jimmy" Darlington
made the scapegoat for these un-
known persons. The entire matter
doubtless will be gone over next
month when the application for Carr
rington's pardon comes up before
the state pardon board for hearing.

has reached the respectable figure OF
js45.so7.450.s7.
Certainly this is not a record from
which to make political capital.
There might be ground for exoner-
ating congress If it had shown any
real desire to curtail appropriations.
1t will be recalled that it required Of
President Wilson's power to prevent
the democratic majority in congress
from passing a s93,O00,0OO rivers
and harbors bill. That 1t represent
ed pork and graft" is shown by
the fact that it was finally reduced
to $40, 900. This was some
weeks after the war started ana at
the very time when congress was per-
fecting a bill for the levying of the
odious stamp taxes. That the maj
ority in congress is perfectly willing
to make further .inroads upon the
treasury's surplus and also TO con-
tinue the stamp taxes to make up
the deficit in revenue thus created,
is clearly indicated by the plans al
ready under way for the passage Of
La $53,000,000 rivers and harbors
bill and also a gigantic appropriation
for public buildings. 1t is well
known that members of congress
want these appropriations almost en-
|tirely for the purpose of aiding them
in securing reelection.
Business concerns all over the
country have been compelled by the
European war to practice economy
and to limit as much as possible all
expenditures for improvements.
When this is the situation with the
people themselves, is there any ex-
cuse for their representatives when
they squander public funds as reck-
iessly as a rich mans son trying to
spend his inheritance? When the pub
&c Is compelled to submit to stamp
taxes for the first time when the
nation is not at war, congressman
must have some better xcu for
their appropriations than that they
will be useful In furthering political
ambitions. If The Republican is
not mistaken, the public will not
fail to declare its emphatic disap-
prevail of extravaganza by legislative
bodies. Al times of great prosper
ity, reckless public expenditures are
often overlooked. But they will not
be in any such period as the present,
