Hooray for the board! ll Young Majors took his death sentence with a degree of stolidity which charmed the reporter of the McHerald, who wrote up the scene. He did not flinch when asked to name his choice of death and betrayed no emotion whatever. Well, why should he? He is the fellow who has to die and it is now a matter of business with him.

It ought to have been years instead of dollars. to- gayytturb. There is a story going the rounds of the bar the legal barwhich puts the present United States District Attorney, Mr. C. O. Whitteniore, in a rather awkward position if the same be true. Mr. Whittemore is famous for his faux pas but so far has been able to keep adrift on the political stream despite his ideas of the ethics of the profession. The story runs that when J. H. Bacon, the unconscious wrecker of the Bank of Salt Lake, dis covered how innocent he was of crime and appealed his case to the Court of Appeals, . he feared the drastic measures that Judge Judd had taken, and longed for a change in the office of the United States Attorney for Utah. When the change came wily James was ready to take advantage of it. He courted the new attorney. He used all his personal charms to bring him to a friendly condition. lie put business in hishandsand Charley, never suspecting, ever guileless, fell into the snare. Not long since Mr. Whittemore took a journey to Washington, D. C. The case of the United States vs. James IT. Bacon, on appeal, was set for hearing. In a small valise that Charley carried was a transcript on appeal, with many interlineations which were said to strangly resemble the same handwriting which appeared in the will of the late Minnie Himmah. When Charley arrived at the capitol he called on the Attorney General and after talking over Utah matters, he artlessly presented the transcript and told his errand. He desired to confess error in the case of the United States vs. James H. and have the case reBacon, manded back for trial. He used his best English and talked like a corporation lawyer for many minutes. But the attorney general was cold blooded. All accused persons looked alike to him. He told Charley in plain set terms that his office would not be a party to any apparent attempt to defeat justice. Then Charley beggedthat some attorney other than Judge Judd be selected to present the matter and again Charles was turned down. He wended his way westward mentally cursing against the powers that be and threatening to join Warren Fosters rag time brigade and turn the state over to Socialism.
