No Pardon for Carleton.
C. C. Carleton of Dodge county, who mur
dered August Gotham in a tight over a
woman nearly ten yeara ago and who for
this crime ia now serving a life sentence in
the penitentiary, will continue for the pres
ent at present address, for Governor Mickey
has refused to Interfere. The Carleton
matter was brought before Governor
Mickey last week by an Omaha attorney
and friends of the man from Dodge county,
and a pardon asked for. The petition pre
sented to the governor with the argument
was signed by 1,600 men, among whom was
Senator Reynolds, who agreed to employ
Carleton should he receive executive clem
ency. Governor Mickey read carefully all
the evidence lit the case and then refused
to .interfere.
Friends of Carleton asserted that he
should not have been prosecuted for a
crime greater than manslaughter. Gov
ernor Mickey said that even if this waa true
the man had served only eight and a half
years, and for manslaughter the sentence
can be ten years. For murder In the sec
ond degree the lowest sentence Is ten years.
Both Governors Poynter and Savage re
fused the man a pardon. The Jury first
gave Carleton the death penalty, but thia
waa commuted to life Imprisonment by
Governor Holcomb. Governor Mickey com
mended Governor Holcomb s action.
Carleton lived oa a farm near Fremont
and Gotham and his oun wifo uampod
there while traveling through the country
In a 'wagon. Carleton fell In love with the
woman and the two went to Schuyler to
get married, Carleton later claiming that
he did not know she was Gotham's wife.
While Carleton waa at hla home alone
Gotham went to the house, and the two
fought, Carleton shooting Gotham In the
head three times and killing him,
Coaferenro oa Tabltha Home.
Governor Mickey, Attorney General Prout
and members of the State Board of Charl
tlea and Correction tomorrow will have a
conference with Rev. Helner, superintend
ent of the Tabltha home, to see whit he
intends to do about it and to determine
whether to bring those proceedings to annul
the charter of the organisation. Since the
report of Father Rueslng was publlsheo an
other report has come to the board from
members that the condition of the boys at
the Wiener farm has been greatly im
proved, the publication of the report having
had a good effect. Now that this report hits
come In and the head of the home Is show
ing a disposition to take care of the In
mates to the best of his ability, it may be
that no proceedings will be brought and
if brought It' la believed that the State
board would have hard work establishing
Its grounds for the annulment of the char
ter. The main object of the irritation, how
ever, the powers that be believe they will
accomplish, that la to have the next legis-
I luture enact a law that will require all
I private Institutions of this character to
j report to the State board the conditions
of the Inmates and- the financial condition
like the state institutions are now com.
j pelted to do and have their doors open to
J Inspection at any time the State board
on these rer"''. thnt we will be success
ful also In the district Judicial fUhta."
Speaking cf the First Judicial district
where the fuslonlsts are claiming to be
so sure of suoress. Governor Mickey said:
I have no doubt but Reavis will be elected
notwithstanding the fight that Is being
made on him. I have known him a num
ber of years and his father before him.
and both are fine gentlemen and populnr
with the people. Reavis Is one of the
brightest young men In the state, and he
has a faculty of getting there and I am
sure he will. The circulars that were
sent out denouncing him will do more
harm to the fusion cause than to Reavis."
No dates have jet been set for Governor
Mickey to take the stump, and he does not
know when he will start out. He has been
Invited to go to Iowa and Ohio to help out
the party In those states, but declined the
Invitations because It would require his
absence from bt:lness at a time when he
believed ho should be at home.

Works School Teachers.
A book agent down In Cass county has
been working the teachers on a library
scheme to the extent that the county su
perintendent, C. S. Wortman, has sent
out a circular letter warning them against
the man. Mr. Wortman stated that the
agent waa going around telling the teachers
that the county superintendent gives the
books his highest endorsement when In
fact he had never seen the agent at nil
and knew nothing of the matter until two
school boards had Informed him of the
manner of procedure of the agent. Ac
cording to the warning sent out the agent
Is selling thirty non-copyrighted books for
$37.60, when the same books could be bought
for $10 or $15 for forty volumes. The sales
are all made upon the alleged recommemij
Hon of the county superintendent.
Tradliia Fish with Kaasas.
The flfk car will leave tonight over the
Rock Island for Langdonj, Kan., carrying

articles of Incorporation with the secretary
of state and now has the right to run fac
torles or build factories or what not In

on the matter. This morning Mr. Prout
instructed the secretary to file tha. articles.

dream of the S'.ate beard since its Inceptloti
and Governor Mickey Is of the opinion that
uch a law Is badly needed and that It
would resu.t In a betterment of the condi

that the agitation will result In the enact

Governor Mickey, though a very busy
man these days, is still not too busy to
take an Interest in the campaign that is
now on. He is very optimistic of republi
can success In the Judicial fight, and said
this morning:
"I be neve there Is no doubt In the world
but Judge Barnes will be elected supreme
Judge. I have net men from all parts of
the state during the last week, and they
bring reports that everywhere it Is Barnes
and a full republican vote. They tell me
that the party la wejl organised In every
district, and I feel sure, basing my belief
it?

NEWS COMES TO BOUNDARY COMMISSION
Board Created by Treaty Ho in Part
Formed AdJonrna Ont of Respect
and All Pay Trlbnte to
Hla Worth.
LONDON, 8ept. Sol Sir Mlchnel Herbert,
the British ambassador to the United
States, died today at Davos-Plats, Switz
erland, after a long and plucky fight
against consumption, which terminated
with tragic suddenness. The first an
nouncement of the ambassador's untimely
end was received at this afternoon's ses
sion of the Alaskan boundary commission.
It was announced by Lord Alverstone, who
had Jotted down a few sentiments, which
he read as follows:
The members of the tribunal have Just
learned with the deepest sorrow of the
death of Sir Michael Herbert who, in be
half of Great Britain, negotiated and signed
tho treaty by which this tribunal was cin- j
stltuted, and under which it Is at this mo- I
merit sitting. I cannot trust myself to ex
press the feeling of grief which this an
nouncement has caused to every member of
this tribunal, and to ninny others who had
the great privilege of Herbert's friendship.
It is no language exaggeration to say that
no man ever brought to the discharge of
his duties higher Ideals, and few. If any,
greater qualifications. His majesty and
tho British nation hnve lost a devoted pub
lic servant and many of us have lost a
cherished personal friend.
Americans Express Sorrow.
In the meanwhile Ambassador Choate
had entered. He had Just come from Lord
Lansdowne's room, where he learned the
news. The Intense silence which followed
the delivery of Lord Alverstono's tribute
waa broken by Jacob M. Dickinson of the
American counsel, who voiced the Ameri
can sorrow and proposed an adjournment
of the commission. Solicitor General Car
son followed and the commission quietly
broke up until tomorrow.
Friends of Sir Michael Herbert came
hurrying along the Foreign office corridors
to ascertain If the news were true. On all
sides, American, Canadian and English,
genuine sorrow was exhibited, which was
evidently actuated by a sense of deep per
sonal loss.
'sir Michael had been at Davos-Flats
about five weeks. When he returned to
London from America he confessed that
he felt far from well, but his physicians
still held hopes of his conquering the con
sumption. Tho ambassador expected to
leave Davos-Platz a week or so ago In
order to greet the Alaskan commissioners
here, but contracted- bronchitis. Of this
he wrote only a few days ago, quite slight
ingly, saying It was only annoying be
