The above came out in an extra edition of the Wyoming Derrick last Friday. We gave our readers, some time ago a abort sketch of this case and also of the manner in which ha had been protected by the laws of the state of Wyoming, but let us investigate a little farther. In December Charles, Clarence and Ber tha Woodard were arrested on a warrant sworn out by Samuel Hanes for grand larcenv and the case against Bertha Woodard waa dismissed and the two brothers not being able to give bond were committed to jail to await the act ions of the district court, December 80. The alarm waa given of the escape of Charles and Clarence Woodard, J, F. Franklin and F. D. Foot and in the cliasa that followed Sheriff Ricker was killed and was robbed of his belt and weapons. That the murderer was Woodard there seemed but little doubt and he waa not captured until January 24; he waa then brought back to Casper, Wyoming, for trial and according to the statement made by the Derrick, had not the jury brought in a verdict of murder in the first degree there would have been no use for Judge Bramel to pass sentence or even sum up the evidence, for in that court room were gathered a number of stern faced man whose wills weref unanimous. According to law Charles Woodard was granted a respite for 105 days until the supreme court could go over the ev idence in the county and according to law the sheriff of Natrona county should have protected this mac ar an officer rA the law though he had killed 100 jnvi. We fail to see where Casper has dm herself proud and while we do not ', prove of mob law we think Casper would have done the better thing, that is to have huag Woodard when he was first brought back and not make a mock of the law. f Casper would net have bean so brutal to a fellow man even though be toek tb iff o! their fellow townsman and officer iirti law. Proas he brutality rxbibu 4 by these 24 men that hung Wi.wiui we uu not uhhh an ine murderers ami thieves are dead in that part of Wyoni iog yet. f No doubt Woodard committed a dast ardly crime and by him saying h did not intend to do it doe not help his case one iota. lUit when a man confesses he committed the crime and desires a fe moment that he might make peace with his Maker such has always been granted to even the most blv! hirsty villan but instead of these mr tnting his request they threw him u; side of the scaf' ff!i w' ii his neck would not break from th'3, v n on swung on to tiis legs that the ' uigU help strangle l.im death.
