AVERY BUTLER PARDoNED.

News & Observer: Avery Butler
who is serving life sentence in thu
penitentiary, for shooting his father
from ambush, in Sampson coun ty ir
1890, was yesterday pardoned by Gov
Russell.
The case was remarkable one. But.
ler's father was drunkard, and of very
violent passions when intoxicated. He
had ceased to properly provide for his
family and was very cruel to his wife
and children. It was one morning
after Butler had been beating young
Butler and his mother that the bow
seized gun hid behind a chump of
bushes and shot his father as he came
along.
For the murder he was tried at the
April term of Sampson court, in 1890,
was found guilty and was sentenced to
be hanged July 18th, 1890. On ac-
count of the boys extreme youth and
upon the petition of a great many clti
zens OF Sampson county, the death SEN
tence was committed to life imprison-
ment by Governor Fowle. Since then
many attempts have been made to have
him pardoned.
Young Butler is cousin of Senator
Marion Butler. He has been in the
seven years. He COM
menced life time sentence when a
mere boy fifteen years of age. The
young man has escaped more than
once, but otherwise his record Is clean.
On one occasion he made his escane
and got as far as Kentucky, but a fellow
who made the escape with
him gave him away in order to get a
reward of 500 offered for the boy.
The following reasons are assigned
oy the Governor for granting the par
don:
For six months I have resisted per-
slstent appeals for the pardon of this
BOY. These appeals have come from
Inc very best men and women from
such societies as the Women's Chris
Ian Temperance Union, from the
order OF the Kings Daughters of the
own OF Clinton, from numbers of the
'ltlzens OF Sampson county. It is also
Urged by every member of the board
u directors OF the State prison, repre-
'entlng all political parties. The boy
vas most brutality prosecuted and tort
lred by brutal father, as was also his
mother. Considering the provocation,
ne helplessness of the mother and the
hlldren, the brutality Of the father
nd his threats on the very day of the
lomlcide to kill the boy and the
mother, the case borders on what might j
e termed not in law, but IN ultimate
ustlce, as moral self defence. The law
ught to have been strong enough to
ave locked up the father before his
ruelties made the family desperate.
am creditably informed that the
,other is deserving woman and her
istresses haye been aid are such as to
ppeal to every man who is capable of
generous emotion. 2

LET'S HAVE MORE OF THEM

The Raleigh correspondent to the
Wilmington Messenger says:
cit is claimed that the establishments
OF a dlspensary at Fayetteville has
greatly decreased drunkenness"
The friends of temperance ought to
watch the workings OF the dispensaries
established in the State and If thew do
decrease drunkenness, let us have more
of them until we can get rid Of the sa-
loon altogether.

SEVEN YEARS AGO.

It has been insisted that every par
of the human body undergoes com
plete change once in seven years. We
think that it can be stated as living,
indisputable fact, that the government
of North Carolina has been pretty thor.
oughly changed during the past seven
years.
The COMMONWEALTH would like fOr
every man in the State to contrast the
situation Of public affairs in North
Carolina, in every department, to-day
with what it was seven years ago. 1t
Is too plain to need argument that
there has been a change wrought.
Now, the question we should like to
put to every honest man in the State,
white and black, is: How MUCH HAS
THE GOVERNMENT OF NORTH CAROLINA
BEEN IMPROVED WITHIN THE LAST SEW
EN- YEARS? Is the State as we'll able to
pay the claims on it's treasury as it was
seven years ago?
Are the various counties in the State
paying their own bills as promptly as
they were seven years ago?
Are the State institutions considered
by competent men of all parties in as
good condition as they were seyen
years ago?
Is the free school machinery running
as smoothly as it was seven years ago?
Is the States good name as unfair
nished in the eyes of our sister States
as it was seven years ago?
Is there that harmony of feeling
amongst our people that began to be
seriously disturbed about seven wears
ago?
Are there as few hienous crimes on
record within the boundaries of our
State as there were seven years ago?
Does it look now, under present cir
cumstances, that North Carolina is as
desirable a State to live in as it was
seven years ago?
Would capitalists from other States
as readily invest their money here as |
they would seven years ago?
Is there that confidence in North |
Carolina between man and man that |
prevailed seven years ago?
Are the best people of the State as
well satisfied with the present condi-
tions OF affairs as they were seven years
ago?
The COMMONWEALTH would like to
have some competent person answer
these questions.
