PROBE PARDON Of
GOV. JOHNSTON
Oklahoma Legislature Considers
Charges Against Executive

Oklahoma City, Jan. Is R-In-
vestigation Of the pardon granted
last year by Gov. Henry 8. Johnston
to a convicted murderer was the
further business today of a legisla-
tive investigating COMMITTEES inquir-
ing into the official conduct Of the
executive.
Testimony to effect that the gov
ernor pardoned the murderer. r. D.
Crosthwaite, while he was = fugi-
tive from Justice and without full
investigation Of the case, was before
the inquisiatorial board. which was
appointed last week after anti-ad-
ministration forces had gained con-
troll in the house Of representative
The testimony was brought out at
the initial session yesterday, when
the committee voted to take UP first
inquiry into the acts Of the COVER
nor, who has been the target of Bit
ter criticism and Impeachment
threats for more than a year.
Crosthwaite, who killed Theima
Lovejoy, young Oklahoma City
school teacher in 1913, has been at
large since 1928. when he failed to
return after a leave Of absence
granted by former Governor J. G.
Walton, who was impeached more
than five years ago.
r. G. Lovejoy. brother of the slain
girl, told the inquisiatorial body that
when he protested the pardon to
Governor Johnston last year. the
executive told him the clemency act
was "the greatest mistake OF my
whole life" and promised immediate
stepsto revoke the pardon. Lovejoy
said. however. that no action had
been instituted.
Pardon Granted
The pardon was granted. 1t was
brought out, after six purported i'm
parchment charges had been leveled
at the governor late in 1927 by
self-convened secret meeting of the
house Of representatives. The state
senate later accepted the supreme
court ruling that tho house has no
legal right to convene itself and re-
fused to sustain the charges.
Most Of the allegations were based
on grounds Of incompetency. but one
conferred about employment by the
governor of Joe -tlvarado. convicted
store robber. as a special state agent.
Alvarado then was under sentence
to the penitentiary. and now u serv-
ing his term.
The murdered girls brother told
the committee that he had attempted
to protest the pardon to James A.

GOLD BEAR MINE
 IN WILLOW GREEK !5
 ADDED ID PRODUCERS

Thru what may be termed as an 11th hour finish another produc- tive mine was added to the Willow Creek district during the season just closed. It is the Gold Bear, a member of the Gold Bullion group, on which a 20-ton ball mill was in- stalled during the summer. As this season drew near to close x. E. Wann, M. E., who in addition to being one of the best practical mining engineers of Alaska, is an expert mill operator, was called
 nto consultation to put the finish ing touches upon the mill. Operat- ing approximately six days of 24 hours each, a total of $2,500 was
 aken from the plates.
 During the summer MT. Wann was in charge of operations at the Marion Twin Mine, from which he shipped a quantity of $500 ore to
 he Tacoma Shelter while develop
 ng other workings.
 So impressed was MT. Wann with the possibilities of the Willow Creek district that he took an option on the Thorpe gold property on Grub stake Gulch and will proceed with development work next season. In oluding in his plans is 20-ton mill. The Thorpe mine is opposite the Lucky Shot, on tributary to Will low Creek.
