JURISTS NOT
IN FAVOR OF

(Continued from Pngo One.)
in his letter to Mr. Pierce.
'Tinier the clrciiinstmievs I
think It would be an outrage up
on jtisl feci for cvecutU e clem
ency to Ih extended to Guutlilci,
The girl agaiii.it whom the crime)
was committed wns a inert
chllil.
Other remarks made by M r.
Knowles in Ins letter to the gov
ernor Included: "If executive clem
ency Is extended to Gaulhier, it
ought also to be extended to his
co-conspirator. Butcher, who Is
now serving a sentence for the.
commission of u similar crime
against another young girl.
Cnder the circumstances I cannot
recommend that exeeiit l e clem
ency lu: extended to Kloyd Gau-
thier."
.Mr. Green Objects
Mr. Green, special prosecutor of
the case, also enured an objec
tion in u letter to the governor.
Kxcerpts follow: "1 personally
would have no objection to recom
mending a pardon after the de
fendant had served u. reasonable
lime, und 1 an; not requesting or
insisting on Hit full ten-year pen
alty, but 1 do think that consider
ing the great expense and the tax
to t'nion county, in the trial of this
case us a whole, that it would bo
a tie vest y on justice tto turn
the defendant loo.c after hi' hus
been found guilty and the case uf-
firmcd by the supreme court by
an undivided court. I un
derstand that the statement has
been made that the defendant de
nies his guilt. If there is any doubt
in your mind about this, I would
ask that you read the record, which
is very short. The original testi
mony is on fit-.! in the records of
the supreme court. While
the sentences given by the court
Is heavy, yet you yourself are un
doubtedly to some extent familiar
with the condition existing In Old
Town of La Grande prior to this
(rial. These girls lived in Hint purt
of town and 1 have often luan 1 the
remark that those two convictions
did more to clean up things there
than anything (hat had happened
for years." '
Wright's Denial
Another letter written by Mr.
Green states: "I understood from
one of your letters thai L'd Wright
recommended u pardon. I have
talked to I'M Wright personally
while here at Hot Lake and he ab
solutely denies recommend Ing u
pardon, but states I hut he recom
mended a reduction In the sentence
to around one year. Now, governor,
