Illinois Chief Executive in
Court' for First Time
in History
WAUKEOAN, III., March 8. For
tho first tlmo In tho history nf Illi
nois, its chief exccutlvn wont oa
trial during hli term of offlct lu
tho court bouso iiorn today, whin
dorernor Small appeared to ta'es
fraud charges.
Not alnco tho Impeachmont n4
removal of William Suiter from tat
governorship of New York In 1I1S
has iho governor or any Americas
stato faced charges ao swrloaa W
which have attracted tha wide
spread attention as thoso pNidlag
against Len SmlTl, 2Sth governor
of Illinois, and his fellow dofead
ants, Lieutenant Governor Fred B.
Sterling and Vernon Curtli, a bank
er of Grant Park, Illinois.
In IlllnoU' 104-yearsof atateaood
only two other governors have avtr
been Indicted white In office, and
In each of. the previous caaes the
court dismissed the charges with
out trial becauso of., their trivial
nature.
Although dovernor Small a4
Messrs. Curtis and Sterllag- are
charged jointly with conspiracy t
defraud the state through eaabes
clement of (und, (rom the state
treasury during tho terms of Small
and Curtis a atate treunrer,' oely
the governor will go on trial aero
Monday. Curtis, whose case ,wss
brought to Lake county from laa
garcea. .county with (hat of the gv
CTBc-r.-iras'granUd separate, trie!
by Justice Claire C. Edwards, pre
siding in flrcult court hero.v Lieu
tcnunt Gorernor Sterling did not
nk for a c!ungoor venue, and his
caso is still p-ndlng In tho Sanga
mon county circuit court at Spring
field.
Originally (horo wero four In
dictments against Messrs. Small,
Sterling and Curtis, threo of which
Involved thu governor, hut only
ono -the crniplracy caso remains.
Ono Indictment, charging the
three defendants with embexillng
1700,000, wus quashed by Judge
Kdwurds becauso of technical er
rors. The court also quashed counts
In the conspiracy Indictment which
remains to bo tried .und a charge
of operating, a confidence game.
Tho Judgo then ordered tho gover
nor to trial on an Indictment charg
ing embezzlement of $600,000 dur
ing hU term as statu treasurer, but
tho stato objected to trying this
caso first, and when the Judge In
sisted C. Fred Mortimer, state's at
torney of Sangamon county, dis
missed tho Indictment.
Tho fourth ludlcttncnt, which was
never brought tu Waukegau, charg
ed Sterling with embezzling $700,
000. The conspiracy Indictment charges
tho two formor treasurers with en
tering Into a conspiracy with Curtis
to defraud tho statu out of large
suing due It as Interest. Curtis
owned the charter of the Orsnt
Purk bank, a formor prlvato bank
lug Institution, which, the stste al
leges, "absolutely ceased to func
tion as a bank after 1908," Orant
Park is a town of fiOO population
In Kankakeo, a few miles from Gov
ernor Small's homo.
The battery of lawyors for both
Hides Is one of tho largest ever as
sembled In the historic old Lake
county court room.
The defenso Is expected to wage
an attack on the constitutionality
of tho state treasurer's act of 1101.
which required the treasurer lo
place slate funds In the bank pay
ing tho highest rate of interest.
Tho act, tho defense clslmsd Is
I preliminary arguments, Is uncon
stitutional becauso It wsa Improp
erly passod and because It com
bines two subjects under one title,
provision having also boon made by
tho law for an appropriation to pay
for bonds of the state tressursr
and his assistants.
