Yesterday alternoon ot ' fifty minutes

a prominent and popular younn lawyer at

also a lawyer of standing and reputation at
the bar. Thut there hud been an enmity
or at least unpleasant feelings between the
men for some two years past the friends
of both knew very well.
It seems that the cause of this unpleasant

put his feet upon a table; tho first thing
that attracted my attention was Thurmond
saying to Cowart that lie (Cowart) had

t'owurt denied; Thiirmr.nd replied: "You

cfty and his reputation throughout the
state will hardly be cousidt-red mal-
apropos here. He was horn in
Davis county Kentucky some (brty-

not possessed of a finished education he
was fairly well cnltnred and had a.ripirous
robust intellect a mind well adapted to the
practice of criminal law the branch of his
profession iu which he was perha most
prolicieiit and of which lie certainly was
fondest.
During the late war he was for the union
and perhaps bore arms a short time
bctore the clone of the war in
behalf of the union cause. Directly
alter the war being then a yhuu'g
lawyer he went to Idaho territory. wlier be
practiced his prolession a short while when
lie wenr to Montana and first became
known to the public thvrw as an advocate
on the hustings in a congressional cam-
paign in behali of the democratic candi-
date. After this he cot into trouble with the
vigilance committee and was forced by this
committee to lieu from Montana. The cause
of his trouble with the vigilance committee
was his persistent attempt to defend in the
course of his prolession the road agents.
These road agents had become so outrage
ous in .their depredutions that the
citiieus In self-defense had taken the law
into their own hands and were Irving
through this vigilance committee these road
agents and because Judge Thurmond and
another lawyer named Sinkh at-
tempted to defend these road
agents wnen iney were put on

The following is the written statement of
Mil. W. 11. THACKXR
deputy county clerk who was in the court
room at the time ot the killing but who
was not examined by tho coroner's jury.
He suid :
The first I saw of the parties they had just
separated near tho large door of tho middle
room: Cowart going around past the outer
door into the bar and taking a seat at the
table; us he (Cowart) passed around Thur-
mond said to him in a rather loud tone :
''You have slandered me and my family;"
Cowurt denied having slandered his family;
several harsh remarks passed between
them which I do not recollect; Thurmond
being on tho outside of the bur and Cowart
still sitting ut the table near the judge's
stand; Thurmond made some remark to
this effect: "You shan't do" some-
thing I did not understand as 1 was about
commencing my work and was not paying
close attention; very soon after this
remark Tiiurmond walked around rather
hastily inside the bar towards Cowart with
his stick grasped near the middle und
when ho started 1 think it was in his right
hand' after passing through the en-
trance to the bar on the west side of the
court room about opposite the stove. Mr.
Keurby who was near by met him (Thur-
mond) and snid to him: "You limit not
have a light here' or words ol thut pur-
port i '
Mr. Kearby checked Thurmond n mo-
ment or so and about this time Cowart
arose from his seat drew u pistol from his
hip pocket as he rose and tired; Thur-
mond fell and expired; I could not see all
of Thurmond's movements as Mr. Kearby
Mr. Cowart und the stove wcro between me
ami him (Thurmond.)
Our reporter reached the. court room the
scene of the tragedy about ten minutes af-
ter tho shooting. Tho dead body of Judge
Thurmond lay where it fell presenting a
GHASTLY Al'l-KAIIANCK.
Ho was laying on his lea sido rather his
legs sligh t!y bent his left arm and hand
under hi in the left hand grasping hiscauo.
His hat wus still on bit bead and Lis cigar
half smoked up in his inouth. His right
hand wus laying out somewhat from Ins
body and held iu its grasp a small pistol.
DIooU and bruin wero oozing from a pistol
hull wound in the right upper corner of his
forehead just below the eugo of th hair
and running down on to the lloor where a
little puddle had formed when our
reporter reached tho spot. Ho wna
evidently killed instantly as there
was y not the slightest evidence
of any' struggle although by nn Involun-
tary reaction of the stomach he bad rotcbed
ami thrown up a part of the dinner ho had
evidently eaten but a little while beforo.
Tilt I'lsTob
lie had was a small revolver nickel-plated
of the Hopkins iv Allen make and carried
a ball of thirty-eight calibre; tho cylinder
and barrel were nooxcecdiug five Inches
in length If in long.
After tho shooting Mr. Cowart walked
down to the shesilV's olllce and surrendered
himself.
After the Investigation before the coroner
was ended and Mr. Cowart was
required to give hail In the sum
of two hundred dollars he immedi-
ately found bondsmen in the persons of
t'nhmol V. L. Crawlord and Mr. T. 8.
Miller and was forthwith released and
then repaired immediately to hit residence.

he reasoned that the end justified
tlie means and being shrewd
and having strong intellectuality
he was a power in v .a
certain sense as a leader and
in planning. He had a great many friends
in this city who mourn his loss aud who
will ever he loyal to his memory.
The verdict ef the coroner's fury is
A VlilOIlOl'S VINDICATION
of Mr. Cowart for his action in slaying
Judge Thurmond and it doubtless out
voices the prompt action of a trial
jury on the evidence belore it but
it seems that the ends of justice
would be best subserved if the grand jury
should return a bill of indictment against
him. The majesty of the law can only be
vindicated in tho court-room ami it is due
to the state due to the majesty of the law
and due to the accused hiinself that there
should be an indictment thut there may be
n trial by jury and every fuel thut can be
obtained brought to light.
Tho grand jury1 is now in session and
