CHARGE TO JURY. other persons. Conspiring to suborn perjury involves every element excopt tbe accomplishment of perjury. It does uot matter if the perjury was committed or not. Thore has been some evidence to show that Gesner had au arrangement with entrymen to have tho uso of the grass on the claims, and this is uot unlawful. An eutrymau baa a right to borrow money and execute a mortgago on his land, but the mortgage must be made iu good faith iu other words, there may be a loan of money to be repaid. A man may let it be knowu what he will pay for certain claims aud he may loan nioucy with the intention of buy ing the claim upou II mil proof being made and act lawfully, liut if there is any contract or agreement direct or indirect, the person so doing is a violator of tho luw. "In order to mako an agreement between the parties there must be a meeting of the miuds, exprossed iu some taugib.'o way. It is not enough that the intentions of the ontrymau ' are to convey tho title to another. The contract need not bo in writing, but must be expressly set forth and uderstood by the two parties. 1 'The offense oharged here is that two or more persous conspired to ac complish perjury byseauriug the false swearing of entrymen on the public lauds. The questions, thou, for you to determine aro: Did the dcfoudatits, or two of thorn, outer into a conspir acy to secure entryineu to outer ou lands." "Did they secure the making of false affidavits at tho time of Uliug and did the defendants mako a con tract, direct or indirect, with the en ! tryuien, wheroby they woro to socure i title to tho claims? I "In proving conspiracy, it is nllow ! able to introduce circumstantial ovi- deuce. This evidence must uot only be conclusive, but any othor acts , must be shown to bo unreasonable uu- der tho circumstances. If you believe that the defendants or oithcr of them I Induced eutrymeu to file upon lauds , aud later Induced them to relinquish, you are to give this such weight as I you may decide. The defendants have ; ottered themselves as wltuesseB, und ! iu this counectiou you must decide , how large a motive they havo to give testimony favorable to thcmsolves iu ' weighing it aud giving it due consid : eratiou. If you Hud that some outrv- mnu committed perjury iu making their ontrios, you will uot find the de fendants guilty uulos8 a conspiracy is proved to secure tho accomplishment of this peijury, and if this conspiracy is proved in regard to two of tho de fendants and not tho third, you will find only two of them guilty. Pre vious good character is entitled to weight in lluhiug a verdict. The dej cidiug upon this case and the weigh ing of tue evidence is for you alone, i'ou may decide that all tho defend ants are guilty or that all tho defend ants are uot guilty, or you may find one of the defondants is not guilty."
