Moore, attorney for Loup county, has| addressed an open letter to Attorney Gen- | eral Reed in which he says the reason | why the alleged murderer of Roy Fox was not prosecuted is that the evidence | in possession of the state shows tha: & who had a criminal record, was the gressor and that Galbraith fired n fense of his life. After reviewing evidence, Mr. Moore continues: “Without being able to arrive at conclusion that Galbreath haid committed any crime, and belleving it as muth my duty to protect an innocent man as to prosecute a guilty one, and knowing that a prosecution would cost an innocent man who could ill afford to spend it a| considerable sum, and the prosecution would only serve the purpose of the gang of outlaws for revenge on Galbreath and to deter others who later might be sbnl- larly confronted from prete:ting their person from violence, I refrained from vrosecution of the case. “Without saying or oven intimating that Mr. Hawxby was inflasnced by any- thing but the kest of miotives, vot the people here would havs been much better satisfled with an investigation made by yourself or someone ‘ram your sffice who could not possibly haye had any peculary interest in vecommending 2 prosecution, as it is we'l known that Mr. Hawxby would not have Geen apjointed to assist in the prosecstira nad he mot recommended it. “On my part, 1 do not care to prosecute a case in which, after the state has pro-| duced all its evidence, the defense can | successfully move the court to Instruct the jury to return a verdict of not guilty, without even placing a witness upon the stand for the defendant. ““The people of this county do not ob- ject to the cost of prosecuting a criminal, but do object to making themselves a large amount of expense to prosecute an innocent man for the satiafaction of a lawless bunch, who seek this method of revenge and intimidation. “I have ever prosecuted, not always con- victed, however, every crime committed, where in my opinion a conviction, if pro- cured, could be sustained:upon the evi- dence in my possession, and in this case 1 do mot care to take the responsibility of a prosecution and what it will de- velop, together with the results, but it your office desires to assume the respon- sibility for the commencement of such action, I assure you that you will not find me assisting the defendant.” T.

Williams, head of the Omaha Episcopal diocese, in a sermon to graduates of Brownell hall and Carl M. Worden and John E. | Darling, ordained to the diaconate Sunday at St. Matthias church, warned his hearers who were about to begin a new service to the world, against the methods of Billy Sun- day, the evangelist. Such a ministry as that of Sunday, he said, lacked the authority of God and expressed it- gelf in a babel of shouting in which the individual made himself fore- most. He apoke of the position of the young women graduates as being in a degres similar to that of the young ministers in that it was their duty to translate their natural gifts trained by education into effective force for the benefit of mankind. How to gain this effective force, he said was their ovroblem. Authority of God. The same problem, according to the bishop, confronted the two candidates for the ministry, the other requirement for successful work in their calling, the authority of God, having been conferred by the ceremonies of ordination in the church. In this connection Bishop Williams de- livered what was interpreted by his hear- ers as a denunciation of the practices of Billy Sunday “Jesus Christ ‘authority from God,’ and his ‘effective force,’ which are the literal Finglish translations of the Greek words used, were given by Jesus to his ministers, according to the Gospels,” said the bishop. “We frequently sev one or the other of these elements lacking. Our ministries often lack effective force in advancing the work of God. “Sometimes we see a ministry in which the authority of God is lacking which is such a one that of Billy Sunday. Then the expressions of that ministry are mani- tested in a babel of shouting in which tha individual makes himself foremost.” Ordination Service. The occasion was the annual baccalau- reate service of Browmell hall to which was added the ordination of Rev. Mr. Worden and Itev. Mr. Darling. The ser- vices consisted of a choral celebration of the holy eucharist, the ordination of the candidates and a arge to them and to the young women graduates. A .
