St. Patt. Minn July 5. Following
the formal Interview of Warden Wolfer
of the Minnesota penitentiary giving
lili reasons for asking tlic pardon f
lie Younirer boys. who are serving a
life sentence for the North field bank
robbery I ho Pioneer Press of this
citv. which ha lieretofore bitterly
fought the imi'don has declared in
favor of it in o strong editorial The
opinion is now goiiernl Hint at its
meet In)? a week from to-morrow tlio
state board of pardons will release the
Younger. It is now claimed that
I Icy wood the bank cnshler was killed
by Jesse Jamas.
Many petitiomi accompany the ap-
plication for pardon signed by hun-
dreds of tlio lending' otllrena of Mis-
souri and other Southern statu the
names Including Fulled States Sena-
tors all the living ex-governors of
Missouri judges of the supreme and
other courts members of the stnto
legislature attorneys doctors and in
fact all classes. Among the number
are many relatives and friend of the
Younger1 who are willing to put up a
bond in any amount for the future
good behavior of the boys If permitted
to do so or required to do by the state.
Cole and Jamas are aging fnst and
their only hope now is that they will
soon bo pormlttod to breath the air of
freedom and will be able to return to
their boyhood homes whore circum-
stances occurred which subsequently
drove thorn to a life of crime. There
conduct in prison lias boon such that
Warden Wolfor is impressed with tho
belief that something should be dono
for them and he will loavo no stono
unturned to assist them. IIo Is ably
backed by tlio board of prison man-
agers and by hundreds of citizens of
Still wator who havo known the boys
for many years and havo been im-
pressed wllli their prison record.
In connection with tho' applicaMon
for pardon are a number of pnpers
bearing upon their lives and among
thorn is the history of the Northfield
raid prepared by Coleman Younger at
tho suggestion of Warden Wolfer. It
Is tho only artlole of tho kind bearing
on tho Northfield robbery that has
omauntcd from any of the principals.
Colo Youngar's lips hnvet been sealed
on this subject from the day of his nr-
rost until now. IIo breaks tho silenco
of twenty yoars to give for tho first
timo his own vorsion of tho famous
raid and to tell what part he and his
two brothers took in it.
