VALE BouGHNER's PARDON
Favored by Mr.. Morris, but Mr.. Bran
non Reserves his Opinion for the
Present.

Saturdays session of the State
Board of Pardons convened at Mounds
VILE was devoted almost exclusively
to the application Of Vale Boughner
for a pardon. The evidence was care
fully reviewed by the Board, with the
result that Hon. P. w. Morris, a
member of the Board, favored the
pardon, but Hon. W. w. Brannon,
the other member, announced that he
would reserve his opinion until the
supreme court passes on the case. The
matter will be before the supreme
court at Wheeling next week, after
which should the court decide against
Boughner, is believed Mr.. Brannon
will agree with Mr.. Morris and a par
don will be recommended. In that
event the governor will hardly refuse
the pardon, in view of the many
strong petitions an influential letters
sent him in the young lads behalf.

A City counsiIman's Enterprise.

AS monument to enterprise, In
dustry and thrift, the w. S. Siers mas
sIye brick block in course OF cree
ton on Pike street is one of the most
striking in our city. This Splendid
structure is the fruit Of the scrlptural
Injunction that thou shall earn thy
bread by the sweat of thy brow and
is the outcome of good management
as we'll. Mr.. Siers is a member Of the
city council and although he lisa dem
ocrat. he is not so partisan as to allow
his political faith to interfere with
what he believes to be the best inter-
ests of the city, nor is it his custom to
indulge in any petty personal selfish
ness and grievances. He stands pre-
eminent as one who desires to see the
city push forward In progression.
What he does is with zeal, and his
personal contribution to the upbuild-
Ing OF the city is worthy OF emulation.
He is reaping his good share OF these
splendid republican times and the pity
Of it is that he does not change his
politics. Under republican rule he
purchased a good brick block and in a
month or two he will have another fine
one alongside. His new building is to
be % by go feet, three stories high and
when finished will be an imposing
brick structure. 1t will be fitted into
fine and spacious business rooms, so
desirable that he has received a num-
Der OF applications for them already.
A few more years of republican pros
perity and Mr.. Siers will be one Of our
most influential and leading real es-
fate owners.

Mr.. Monroe Celebrates His Birthday.

James Monroe, Esq, celebrated the
10Th anniversary Of his birth. at his
residence, South Second street, Fri
day, May Is, 1900, by giving recep-
tion to a number ofhIs acquaintance
and friends. The guests were those
who we're citizens OF Harrison county,
when Mr.. Monroe came to this county
from Hampshire county March 8, 1850,
or more than half century ago.
They we're Judge 7, w. Harrison,
William r. Alexander, B. F. Shuttle
worth, Andrews. Girls, Daniel Bough-
ner, John H. Smallwood, Elmer B.
Hursey, John j. Davis, Col. Ben VIII
son, Hugh Garrett and j. W. Monroe.
The political complexion of the party
was equally divided, the first six
named being republicans and the
other five democrats, and as the host
is democrat, q vote on political
questions would have been u Tie.
Happily, however, 1T was not a politi.
cal occasion, but one of friendship.
Invited guests not present were Col.
Luther Raymond, Lemuel Holden
and James E. Cork. A striking feat
ure Of the affair was the advanced
ages ofthe gentlemen present, the to.
tai number of years, as they sat at the
dinner table so bountlfully laden with
delicious eatables and luscious fruits,
aggregating about 5Oyears. The day
was spent in pleasant "reminiscences
and proved enjoyable, indeed to all.
The genial host made his guests stay
with him a happy one and none pres.
ent will ever forget one OF the most
agreeable events in their lives. All
wished Mr.. Monroe many happy re-.
turns Of his natal day and the Tele-
gram hopes his years may be many
and prosperous.
