( Special to the Republican ) ' Interest at the state capital just A now , hinges on the numerous ap plications for pardons , all other than the Governor's office being engaged with purely routine work of the year end. Lieu tenant Governor Hopewcll came Saturday to steer the ship of state during Governor Sheldon's absence and has been disposing of pardon applications with care and rapidity. Saturday he listen ed to the pleas of W. T. Turley ot Hall county and L ) . A. Crowcll ( II of Buffalo , for executive clemency Both were represented at the hearing by Judge F. G. Ilamer and Thos Hatner.

During Monday the governor heard the pKns for clemency of F. W. Clement ? , cou- victed of the murder of Luke Golden in Sarpy county J. .1. Reed , convicted of the murder ot Glenna Ilines iu Douglas county and of George Conroy , sciving for burglary committed in Saline county.

J. J. Reed of Douglas , serving a life sen tence for the murder of Glenna Ilines , a woman of the town , came next. Reed was received at the pen in May 1906 and is now p.i t CiO years of i e. Governor Hopewcll comtmittcd his sentence ton teim of ten voar.s , which , figuring the usual jule of "good time , " would give him 1 years and 1 month to servo from the dale of his conviction. The oid man broke down and cried , say ing , "I will be dead long before tliiii. " George Conroy's applica tion was for an allowance of S2 d.iys which the district court in tended to consider in his sentence but inadvertently overlooked. He had failed to make the necessary publication required by law and the governor was powerless to proceed though stating that the plea would have been granted except for the defect in the ap plication. TClmer Russell , under sentence of ten vcars from Boonc county , gave the prison officials a little surprise today by returning to the penitentiary of his own : u II J. S.
