Gov. Taylor of Tennessee ETectuaIIy
Ended the Interference
of Legislators.

Gov. Bob Taylor, of Tennessee, was
just exactly opposite to Gov. Allen,
with as tender a heart as woman,
and the way he pardoned out con-
victs was something awful, He was
waited upon by committee of the
Legislature, who very fatty and in
no uncertain way told lin that this
wholesale pardoning must stop"
"Gov'ner Bob looked at the COM
mittee, tapped a bell asked for his
pardon clerk, and when he came, said :.
"Make out pardons for every man
in the penitentary."
The clerk bowed and withdrew.
Then the governor looked at the com
mittee, who We're staring as if they
thought he was going mad.
Gentlemen" he said, finally. ~ am
governor of Tennessee, and if this
committee or any other ever again
seeks 10 interfere with my constitu-
tional right to pardon I'll sign every
one of those pardons which the clerk
is making out. Good morning"

WHERE AMERICANS MAY WIN.
Portugal n Great Field for American
Enterprise. Says Our Min
iater There.

There is a great field in Portugal for
American enterprise, writes John n.
Irwin, United States minister to that
kingdom, in Success. Our manufac-
turers really ought TO prospect" in
that little-known country. In the first
place they are made most welcome.
The king and the queen. both young
and truly regal speak English perfect
ly and are among our warmest admir-
ers. They reflect the sentiment of
their people. In the second place,
American goods are needed. and the
progressive part of the population
would welcome them as a means of ad-
vancing the countrys prosperity.
English-made machinery now used
there is of old type and not up to date.
In Lisbon the old style of transporta-
tion is being changed to the electric
system. While English capital is con-
ducting the enterprise, every bit of ma
terial from the smallest bolt to the
modern cars. is of American make.
Portugal sends us cork. and we send
her petroleum and wheat. but in my
opnin the balance OF trade now in our
favor could be materially increased
If our manufacturers were to take
full advantage of their opportunities
in the little kingdom.
