HYDE SECRETLY FREES
CONVICT AS FAVOR TO
G. O. P. FRIENDS
Courtesy Parole" of Self Confessed
Robber is Disclosed.

Jefferson City, May Ell. Harry
+ Quick, sell confessed highway rob-
Der, who had served two years of a
tive-year sentence from st. Louis,
was paroled secretly from the peni-
Tertiary Monday by Governor Hyde,
after the Republican governor of In
diana and Republican United States
senator had urged clcmency. That
was disclosed Friday in the filing OF
records in the office of the secretary
of state. Quick is the son of a
wealthy banker OF Indianapolis.
| The records, which had not. been
made public previously, also showed
that Governor Hyde had written two
letters to the state prison board ask
ing that some recommendation be
made by the board.
The recommendation finally was
| made by the board as result of the
activity OF Governor Hyde, although
there was no recommendation from
either the trial judge or prosecuting
attorney OF St. Louis. The filing OF
such recommendations have been re-
CURED i'll cases previously recon-
mended by the board.
Newspaper correspondents visited
the office of the secretary OF state
several times Monday, but no men
ton was made of the sact that the
parole had been issued to Quick.
The fact that the parole had been
issued was learned from outside
sources.
The records not only show that
Quick pleaded guilty to the first de-
gree robbery charges in St. Louis on
March IS, 1919, but that he previous
ly had served term in the Jeffer-
sonville, Ind, reformatory.
Gov. Warren I. McCray Of Indiana
and United States Senator Harry $.
New OF Indiana were among those
who wrote letters to Governor Hyde,
urging the role.
w. X. Painter, chairman OF the
state prison board, was asked about
the board recommending the parole
without recommendation from the
trial Judge or prosecuting officer.
His attention also was called to the
fact that the parole papers do not re-
veal the record of Quick crime 9TH
er than he pleaded guilty to the first
degree robbery charge and that he
had previously served term at JET
fcrsonville, Ind.
Painter said that he understood the
parole was sort OF courtesy parole
between Governor Hyde and the gov
ernor OF Indiana
Quick is 81 years old and was pa
rolled to Owen J. Conard OF Indian
apolis.

Wool Clip From 1873 Sells Very
Cheap.

DR.. J. E. Jose of this city discov.
cred that going back to normally
means quite loss to sheep raisers
The Doctor shipped the shear from
173 sheep which brought only $o3.37
on THE market.
DR.. Jose says he paid IS cents a
head to have the sheep sheared which
totaled $3I.14 for the shearing and
that he paid $462 for Irvine and sacks
to ship the wool making the total cost
$3s.72 which taken from the amount
received leaves SILLY for the wool
from the sheep.
Sheep raising, the Doctor says, is a
very Improbable business and if
there is not some change in the wool
market the price will be bound to
show a big increase soon because the
supply will be exhausted.-Missouri
