from the trial evidence, Mr.. Pattangaii
asserted that the dissenting opinion
claimed new trial was necessary on In
admissible questions by Joe Bits own
questions to a States witrsess.
Joe Bill thought he had proof of wife's
adultery in April, tried to divorce ner.
she succeeded in postponing case and
making him liable for support till fall.
He threatened to and did kill her. ne
shot her three times. Men consider MUIR
der for adultery differently than from
other cause, especially when news is sud
den-but when man knows Of the adultery
for weeks and nally kills, it is different
from no other murder. All the testimony
went to show that sudden news was not
the cause of the MURDER but a long con-
sidered act.
Petitions may be secured with any num-
Der Of names for any prisoner. if friend
will circulate them and they may not
even show sympathy. The friends might
have Clipped and raised .money to raise
that mortgage on Joe Bills $4,000 prop
erty and saved it for his children. That
would have been real sympathy.
IF you will read and consider all
that evidence you will be convinced as
the jury was that Joe Bill was guilty
of premeditated murder.
County Attorney Bellevue said he
was familiar with the case and knew
that many prominent people had re-
fused to sign pardon petitions. know
ing that Joe Bill had threatened to and
did kill his wife-a premeditated MUIR
der.
II don't remeber Of convicted MUIR

pardoning system murder punishment
has become 1-2 to 6 years. Friendless
murderers are we'll used by the State

sured. We should give a man every
chance and opportunity to prove in
nocence and if convicted put him in
prison for life and let him stay there.

Bar Harbor represented George Phil
lips, the defeated Republican candi-
date, while Herbert L. Graham, for
mer county attorney Of Hancock coun-
ty, represented Judson Sawyer, the
Democratic candidates. who was elect
ed The recount appears to show that
Sawyer, the Democrat. who had been
declared elected, had made gain Of
three votes. gs~
The. count showed sqtite "a difference
from the official count, owing to some
of the ballots which were officially
counted having 70 cross in the square,
but being checked on the side as in the
Massachusetts ballot, which evidently
ought not to have been counted. Either
way, Sawyer appears to have been
elected.
The recount showed 500 votes for
Sawyer and sos for Phillips, while the
official returns showed 529 for Sawyer
and SIT for Phillips.

KILLDEER
lOxvechus vociferusl

Length, ten inches. Distinguished
by its piercing and ott-repeated cry
taidee.
Range: Breeds throughout the Unit.
ed States and most Of Canada; win
tiers from central United States to
South America.
Habits and economic status: The
killdeer is one of the best known Of
the shorebird family 1t often visits
the farmyard and commonly nests in
pastures or cornfields. 1t is rather
suspicious, however and on being ap-
preached takes flight with loud cries.
1t is noisy and restless, but fortunate
ly most of its activities result in
benefit to man The food is OF the
same general nature as that of the
upland plover, but is more varied The
killdeer feeds upon beetles, grasshop-
pers, caterpillars, ants, bugs, caddis
flies, dragonflies, centipedes, spiders,
ticks, oyster worms, earthworms.
snails, crabs and other crustacea.
Among the beetles consumed are such
pests as the alfalfa weevil cotton-boll
weevil, clover-root weevil, clover-leaf
weevil, pine weevil, billbugs, white
grubs, wireworms, and leaf beetles.
The bird also devours cotton worms,
cotton cutworms, horseflies, mosqui-
toes, cattle ticks, and crawfish. One
stomach contained hundreds of larvae
Of the saltmarsh mosquito, one of the
most troublesome species. The kill
deer preys extensively upon insects
that are annoying to man and injuri-
Gus to his stock and crops, and this
should be enough to remove it from
the list of game birds and insure its
protection
