The Lawson case went TO the jury
for final consideration on Saturday,
May l, 1915, and the jury was unable
to agree all day Sunday. On Monday
morning an agreement had not been
reached. At noon Monday while the
jury was still disagreed, Frank Good
en-, a court baiIff appointed by Judge
Hillyer, and who had been member
of the partisan grand jury whose con-
duct Lawson had attacked in his plea
in abatement, went into the jury room
and told the jurors that Judge Hill
yer had ordered them locked up in
one room without anything to eat I'M
til they reached an agreement. JnHer
this threat an agreement of guilty
was reached and the jury was then
given its monday meal In no other
way could even a prejudiced Jury
have been gotten to return a verdict
Of guilty against John r. Lawson.
After the jury had been DISCHARGED.
numbers of them made affidavits
showing the misconduct Of the bailiff
and the threats that had been INDUCED
in, and how the verdict was returned
through coercion. A motion for a new
trial was thereupon made on behalf
Of Lawson. Affidavits were filed show
ing the bailiff's threat, and in addition
it was shown that the baiIiff had
falsely stated to Grover Hall, a Juror
who was holding out for Lawson, that
said jurors wife was dangerously III.
The plan was to get this juror 10
agree to a verdict of guilty in his
haste to get home to his wife whom
the bailiff reported to be about to die.
There was also filed in support of the
application for a new trial the affida-
Wit of a man who had talked with the
court bailiff, and to whom the baliff
had boosted how he had coerced the
verdict of guilty. The bailiff did not
file any affidavit denying any OF the
charges which had been made against
him, nor did the court call him 70 the
witness stand to dispute the charges

A PREJUDICED JUDGE

| Prior to the passing of sentence
upon Lawson, the attorneys for the
miners under indictment had gone to
the supreme court of Colorado and
presented an application asking that
Judge Hillyer be prohibited from pro
ceeding in any further trials, and
claiming that he had no jurisdiction
after a motion had been made for
change of Judge. The Supreme Court
granted a temporary writ of prohibl-
ton preventing Judge Hillyer from
trying any further cases, and set the
final argument as to Hillyer's Jurls-
diction or lack of jurisdiction for July
~, 1915. On the day, July 18th, when
the attorneys for the United Mine
Workers of America were in the su-
preme court arguing the question as
to HilIyer's jurisdiction, he, Judge
HilIyer, without giving them any op-
portunity to be present, overruled
Lawson's application for new trial,
and sent him to prison. Lawson's at
torneys had appealed to Judge Hill
yer to wait a few days until the Su-
preme Court could pass on the ques-
ton of jurisdiction, and he knew that
the question as to his jurisdiction was
being argued in the supreme court,
yet, without waiting for the supreme
court decision, and without waiting
for Lawsons attorneys to return to
Trinidad, Hillyer overruled the motion
for a new trial, and as before stated
committed Lawson to prison.
The whole record in the case is one
of injustice to Lawson. He had no
fair trial. He was convicted on tes-
timony on which the average human
being would not even convict a doc,
much less a felloW-man The trial
was before a judge deeply prejudced
against the strikers, and who had
been part of the legal machinery
of the coal companies in their prose-
cutions against the strikers, and, in
addition, the jurors were threatened
with starvation in order to coerce
them into rendering a verdict
The statements hereinabove made
are borne out by the record, and are
not oyerdrawn

OF course any judge other than a pre-
JUDGED one would have been quick to
have an investigation in open court
of the charges made by Lawson, but
Judge HIIyer, without requiring the
bailiff to testify or to dispute the
charges which had been made and
sworn to, calmly overruIed the motion
for new trial, and sentenced Lawson
to Imprisonment for life at hard labor
in the state penitentiary.

COAL co. S WITNESSES


The great majority of the witnesses
against Lawson did not mention his
name, or even indirectly refer to him.
The only witnesses who gave incrim-
mating testimony against Lawson
were two Baldwin-Felts detectives.
Charles Snyder and Pat Murphy, alias
Petty. These two men, who were
brothers-in-law admitted that they
We're in the pay of the coal operators,
and had been working to obtain evil
dence against Lawson. One of them.
Murphy, alias Petty, admitted on cross
examination that he was convicted
torger, and had served time for forq-
cry. The other, Snyder, admitted on
cross-examination that he had tried to
blackmaiI the United Mine Workers
out of money and that Lawson had
refused to pay blackmail, and that he
had threatened Lawson if he did not
pay the money. He admitted that
Lawson had said that he did not in
tend to permit Snyder to blackmail
the union. He admitted a grudge
against Lawson because of LaWson's
refusal to submit to blackmaiI. The
character of these two men was
shown to be disreputable, yet they
were put forward by the coal oper-
ators to testify, and did testify that
they saw Lawson on the firing line
while the battle was going on with
the mine guards. No other witness
said anything of the kind.
The instructions given by Judge
Hillyer to the jury were unfair to-
wards Lawson, and his instructions
and rulings showed that the charge
which had been made that he was

that he had encouraged someone to
shoot him, or that he was a party to
"a conspiracy.
Lawson also filed a motion to set
aside the panel of iurymen on the
ground of prejudice and the manner
of its selection This motion Judge
Hillyer denied A petition asking
that the court select a jury from the
regular jury box containing over 200
names sent up by the board of county
commissioners for jury service, was
also denied
On the 21st of April, 1915, the trial
of Lawson began. An application for
a postponement of the trial was filed
by Lawson, and duly verified, which
showed that the defendant could not
be ready for trial on account of a
large number of mine guard witnesses
having been endorsed on the informa-
! ton only few days prior to the day
( of the trial The showing was made
that the defendant had had no oppor-
tunity to investigate the character of
the men who were to testify against
him, or where they came from Judge
Hillyer overruled the application and
forced Lawson to trial, the testimony
against Lawson was wholly in
sufficient to justify a conviction, and
no jury other than one selected in the
manner in which the Lawson Jury was
selected, would have returned a YER
dict of guilty, and even that jury could
not be gotten to find Lawson guilty
until the baIiff threatened the Jury
with the statement that the court had
ordered them locked up without any
thing to eat until they agreed.

PERSECUTION OF LAWSON


John r. Lawson was then placed
on trial A motion was filed on his
behalf asking that the prosecution be
compelled to furnish a bill of particu-
lars stating whether Lawson was
charged with actually having killed
Nimmo, or whether the claim was that
he was an accessory, or whether he
was charged with having been a mem
Der of some conspiracy, the written
charges against Lawson furnishing no
information as to these particulars.
Judge Hillyer denied the application,
and sent Lawson to trial without his
being informed whether the claim was
that he had actually shot a man, or

Mountain Press 1.-THE operators take
a gloomy view OF the situation. The
market Is heavy. with prices low and
demand slack. There is little dis
position TO look for lumber, and many
mill men who in better years have been
accustomed to wait for the buyers to
come to them found 1t necessary to
hunt around for buyers, so that they
could get yard room for the product OF
their saws, and release scme OF the

Another new state law that has gone
into effect and which will make ad-
ditional work for County Clerk John
Wall and for various city and town
ship clerks Is the Absent Voters Act"
Under this act legal voters who are
absent from their voting precinct at
elections may cast their ballots
through the mail. II is expected the
privilege will be used largely by stu
dent and commercial travellers and
may also be used to some extent by
soldiers.
A legal voter expecting TO be absent
from home. may any time within thirty
days before an election make afidavit
that he expects to be away from home.
Before election the township, city or
village clerk will mail to the voter a
ballot who marks the ballot, makes
affidavit that he did vote. and returns
the ballot to the clerk, so that II may
be deposited In the ballot box before
the polls close. Should the voter re-
turn and desire to vote in his precinct
he must deliver the unused ballot that
has been mailed him to the clerk OF
the election board. who will cancel II
and he may then vote in the regular
way To provide ballots for absent
voters, the county clerk must send to
each clerk two packages OF each kind
OF ballots, twenty-five per cent OF each
being for absent voters.
