Caldwell. Idaho, May 31.-The at
torneys for Mover, Pettibone and Hay
wood give 2ii reasons why their clients
should not be tried before Judge Frank
Smith. The principal reason is that
Judge Smith was appointed by Gov.
Gooding who has issued a manifesto
saying that he has evideace to hang
the men accused. Judge Smith is
criticised severely for his conduct of j
the cases up to the present time. It is J
said further the prosecution cannot
ffoceed until the habeas corpus pro
ceedings 5 ia'.l have been heard by the
supreme court at Washington to which
^ appea. has been taken.
The court ho'.ds that the case must
be tried at once, as aa appeal in habeas
corpus does not operate to stay pro
ceedings. and the motioa and affidavits
supporting it for a change of venue are I
being heard.
