Counting the delegates from

delegates to their national con- <

that Idaho and Hawaii both have 1
leanings toward Hearst, Parker has
202 of the delegates, Henr.-t (
143, while 22S are unioslructed I
and the remainder are counted as i
for favorite sons, like \Vnll,()lney

ircenville News, 9th.
Pcjry Butler and John Carter
were convicted of the murder of
Anson Arnold in the Court of
Jenerul Session yesterday. The
two other negroes named, in the
indictment, Joe Parks and .Jesse
Harrison, were acquitted: Connscl
for the convicted negroes imtied
lately gave notice of a motion
for a new trial. Butler and Curler
will probably bo sentenced tolay
by .Judge Townscnd to he
hanged. Four doomed men are
now locked in tho county j lil.
Byrd and Cois'.\oll have already
been sentenced to die far tho niurler
of Magistrate Cox, and the
conviction of Butler and Carter
adds two nio:c to the list.
Tho record made by Solicitor
Hoggs during the past nine days
in this court has been remarkable.
11 o has secured convictions in
seven-eights of the cases tried,
md four of these have been for
murder involving capital punish*
inent. The docket has been one
?f the heaviest in the history of
tlm county, and in almost every
instance the cases 1 avo been bitterly
contested. The Anson Ar
noid (consumed tivo ilays,
ind was a severe trial upon the
Ulcer.; of the court and the attorneys
interested, especially the solicitor,
win conductod the prosecution.
Jim Brown, a negro was
tried )e-t '!(liy ami also convicted
>? murder, hut the jury recommend
d him to the mercy of the
:ourt. This saves his neck, but
makes it i in per ilivc upon the
presiding judge to sentence him
for life to imprisonment in the
penitentiary.
