Nov. 19 (Special) The worst case of cruelty to animals ever heard of In this vicinity was brought to light Sunday by a couple of hunters across the river In Saunders county. In a se cluded spot near the edge of a corn field they found an old horse with lis four legs tied together and almost dead. In Its struggles to get up the ropes had cut ii.tn ti. ..!. lino me nesn. They loosened the animal, but he was too weak to stand, but ate heartily of corn. Thoy hunted up the owner. Thoy hunted up the owner, who proved to be a young man living on a farm nearby, and he calmly told them that the horse was his, that It was worn out and worthless, that five days before he led It out there tied its legs and left it to die of starvation., He seemed to think he had done nothing wrong. The men went back and shot the horse. The neighbors did not know the affair until today and are highly Incensed at the man's actions. Besides prosecuting under the statute they ar ethreatenlng to run him out of the country, and it would only take a leader among them today to do the business at once. Nebraska News Noire.

Firaam and Douglas NEW HEARING FOR CLARKE Negro Murderer Granted One by Gov ernor Sheldon. HE CLAIMS TRIAL WAS KOI FAIR Declares Jedgs Sattem A a sued Law vers Who Did Not Conaalt Ulna and that Ilia a Wit Railroaded. tFrom a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Nov. 19.-(8pecial Telegram.) Harrison Clarke will have a hearing be fore Governor Sheldon December 9. at which time the chief executive will decide whether he la entitled to a commutation of sentence. He renews the charge made after his own counsel and that the attorneys consulted him but once previous to trial and that In effect his case was "rail roaded" through the trial court. He asks the governor to cummute his death sen tence to one for life, or If on reading the record, the governor shall conclude that he Is no more guilty than Gathrtght, already sentenced to fifteen years, to tnake the term of the same length. A letter containing his request was re ceived today by Governor Sheldon, who, on reading It, fixed December 9 as tire time for a hearing. The date' of execution has already been fixed by the supreme court at December 13. In his letter, which Is a long one, Clarke details the circumstances of his Imprison ment In Ihe Douglas county Jail and says Judge Button asked him If he could engage a lawyer. Ho told the court that he would bo able to employ one. but the next he heard of the matter was when Judge Sutton appointed Attorneys Myers and Ijrlgh to defend him. Attorney Myers called upon him and got a copy of the In formatlon"and he heard nothing more from his attorneys until Mr. Leigh visited him, when he asked what would be done and he was told the lawyers would attend to that. Claims lie Waa Not Conaolted. Clarke says he was not consulted about his defense and though he asked a continu ance at the time the case was set for trial, his lawyers did not push the matter and re ported as ready when he was not ready. He said when the case waa called he snowea oy a letter proaucea in court mat he would be able to engage attorneys of his own choice and that money for his defense would be forthcoming, and the court waived his request aside as was done with other requests made on his behalf during the trial. In open court, Clarke said lie re- quested the privilege of asking questions j of the witnesses, but the court stopped him ; and told him he could ask them through I his lawyers. He say he would have shown the testimony of Gathrtght untme, but no attention waa paid to him. Clarke's request Is for the governor, If he thinks him guilty of the murder, to consider the manner of his trial and commute his i .... . ,,, , ,im. , thmt it ntence to life Imprisonment and that If no minus ne is no more guilty man uatn right to make the term fifteen years. Clarke saya the record will show how he was treated at the trial and that he will be satisfied to leave his case In the hands of tho governor If the executive .will but read the testimony carefully.

In the letter sent to Mr, Pierce by Mr. Drake the following statements were made: "That feature printed on the face of the membership certificate you sent me, reading thus, 'Incorporated by act of congress and approved by the president of the United folates' is false, and in my Judgment steps by the federal government should be taken immediately to have those misleading documents recalled, and , if, after Investigation, it should be found that the company has no legal existence, the offenders brought to book. "From the outset I have been firmly of the opinion, and I still maintain, that no provision was made In the district code for an Insurance company to Insure bank deposits. In further support, too, of my position, I Invite anyone to cite In a single Instance a company that is legally organ ized In the United States to exclusively do a business of this kind or Incidentally, either, without having first procured spe cial legislative authority." Insurance Deputy P1erce(ha information that the company Is trying to do business in Nebraska, though It has no authority to do so. Governor Endorses Preeldeat's Ideas.

"He Is going to do all he can to get the most good out of the rivers and at the same time protect the forests. I may be able to attend the meeting, though I believe the congressmen know I the wishes of the people about as well as i the governors and could get along very well without suggestions from the gov ernors." Valvereliy Wilts Credit for Tax. An employe of the State University hag requested that the state auditor give the temporary university fund credit for the total proceeds of the 1 mill levy for lKuT. as well as 1 mill on every dollar collected on back taxes. The regents desire to Issue warrants against this hook account and have the same registered. Should the auditor grant this request a similar re quest could be made next year for the proceeds of the 19us tax. which was also appropriated by the last legislature. As the tax on real eat ate for the year ltS la not delinquent until May 1, lt), this would. In eCfcett, be appropriating the 1 mill levy beyond the present biennium and up to a time beyond the adjournment of the next legislature, notwithstanding the 17 legislature In making Its appropria tions limited them to the blennlum ending March II, ll. The regents will base their claim on the decision of the supreme court In the case of State ex rel Led with against Searle. auditor of publlo accounts, in which It was held: "When the auditor of publlo ecotints has duly audited and allowed a claim payable out of the said funds, and there Is an unexpended balance therein of a sufficient amount. It Is his duty to draw a warrant therefor In favor of the claim ant, although there may be no money ac tually In the treasury belonging to said fund." The court also held that the origi nal act creating the 1 mill levy for the maintenance of the university Is not re pealed by Implication by the revenue law of 1903. The last legislature passed an act approved April 4, 1907, appropriating the proceeds of the 1 mill tax for the yeara 1W7, l!" and so much of the proceeds of the 1 mill tax for the years 19n6 and 1!XS not heretofore appropriated, to the use of the university for the biennium ending March 31, 1909. In the Ledwlth case the court held that this amounts to a specific appropriation within the meaning of the constitution. Since April 1 there has been collected In back taxes WX, 1.14. 47 and tho 1907 tax has not yet begun to come in. So far the auditor has not given the university credit for the amount of the 1 mill levy for 1907. Emerson Man Gets Contract. W. G. Merten of Emerson secured the contract for erecting tho new buildings at the Norfolk asylum for a total of $7i'. S72 sfnd F. II. Wheeler of Havelock the contract for wiring at a cost of 1,640.
