SENT TO PENITENTIAEfY
Three Young Men Sent Up For
Sobbing Major Hess
Three young tramps made an
aggravated assault upon Major
Iless of Indianola Monday rob
bing him of such cash and valu
ables as he had on lib perscra
he tramps were subsequently
and brought to McCook
and lodged in the county jail
charged with the offense named
above
Tuesday Judge Perry came to
the- city and held a brief session
of district court it being under
stood that the prisoners woaild
plead guilty to the crimes charg
ed This they all did and snn
tune was pronounced as follow-
upon them
Roy Fisher a hall brcsed Canadian-Indian
from the Hudson
Bay country aged about 19 years
an indeterminate sentence of
from 2 to 5 years
Clarence Cheney of Iowa aged
about 21 vears fiom 2 to 4
years
Chester Cordonier of Kansas
aged about 19 years from 1 to
3 years
The major was not severely
injured but the crime is inten
sified by the fact of the victims
unfortunate mental condition as
weill as his physical weakness
However from The Tribunes
view point it is regrettable that
three young men almost boys
should -ho immured in states
prison tor crime ot robbery in
volving a few dollars when the
victim sustained no serious or
even- severe injuries It does
seeini as though such offenses in
these so young and presumably
net crime hardened could be ad
equately punished in a manner
which would and could keep ibheai
free from the curse and further
contamination aLa states prison
