ROBSON GETS A PARDON.
THE GOVERNOR GIVES HIM THE
BENEFIT OF A DOUBT.

The Fact That Other Safes in Wash
ington County Have Been Robbed
Taken into Consideration in Connec
ton with the Ex-Tax Collectors
Claim-A Charter for q New Railroad.
ATLANTA. Ga, April % The opinion OF
the supreme court yesterday affirming the
Judgment of the court below in the case OF
Jesse Robson, ex tax collector Of Washing
ton county, convicted Of embezzlement, has
been followed by petition to the governor
for pardon. signed by nearly 1000 citizens
of Washing on county and other portions
of the state including Chief Justice Bleck-
lev and Justice Simmons The governor
decided to-day to grant full pardon, and
said. in explanations: The power to pardon
is without restriction, but the constitution
couples with this pardoning power, in the
same paragraph, the requirements that the
governor shall take care that the laws are
faithfully executed The responsibility,
therefore, Of nullifying the sentences of
courts is very grave one, and should be
used by the executive with great caution
and difidence.
REASON FOR THE PARDON.
az have, however, after most careful con-
siderstion reached the conclusion That Col.
J. A. Robson should be pardoned. The
evidence on which he was convicted is
wholly circumstantial. The slate has been
fully reimbursed. The jury aud the prose-
cut0rs. the county officers and large
majority of the law-abldinG citizens IN
Washington county, the chief justice Of the
state and one associate justice OF the
supreme court, and many other prominent
officials and citizens unite IN asking his
pardon. The defendants statement
is that his safe was opened and
the money stolen by others. Other
safes have been recently opened and the
money stolen in the same county. There
is. therefore. a possibility that the defeud-
ants statement may be true, and feel that
] am justified in giving him the benefit Of
any doubt Indeed, his past life and the
marked character Of his services induce me
to give greater weight 10 tue doubt IN ms
case.
