GAMBLER GRANTS PAROONS.
Two OF THE LUCKY ONES WE'RE
SENT Up FOR ARSON.

Case of Young From Polk County
Was Unique-Had Been Sent Up for
Life for Trying to Burn a Hole in
the JaiI-GIascOck Citizens Petit
toned for Witcher's Pardon-The
other Case Was From Richmond
County.
Atlanta, June 25.-Gov. Gambler issued
three pardons to-day, two of the prisoners
being charged with arson. and the third
George Taylor, a white man from Rich
mon county being charged with assault
with intent TO murder.
The two arson prisoners were Lige
Young, sent up for life from Polk county,
and Warren Witcher sent up in 1894 for
twenty years from Glascock. The case of
the Polk county negro is unique. In 1881
he was confined in the Polk Jail awaiting
trial for larceny. At the instisation of
white prisoner he burned hole in the
Jail in order TO escape. The grand jury
indicted him for arson and he was given
q life sentence.
A few weeks ago The negro on his own
motion wrote a letter TO Judge Turner
chairman Of the prison board. reciing
these facts. The judge said il they were
true he should be released for the Su-
preme Court had ruled prior to this
mans conviction that an attempt to burn
out of TAIL was not arson but simply an
attempt 10 escape. The investigation was
made, and the Polk county authorities
substantiated the negro's story and the
board recommended a pardon, which the
Governor granted this afternoon there
being no petition, no lawyers, nothing eX-
cept the letter of the prisoner and state
ment from the Polk county officers Verl-
flying what he said.
Walden, the Populist member OF the
Legislature from Glascock, was the pros
ecutor in the other arson case, and asked
the Governor to notify him when the
case would be heard. The Governor no
tilted Col. Walden several days ago that
the papers were before him. and he would
be glad to hear from him, incidentally
telling him that 500 white citizens of his
county had petitioned for the Negroes re-
lease. Walden refused TO appear before
the Governor, saying that If his neigh
bors wanted to turn loose a red-handed
arson fend on the country, he would have
nothing more to say. The pardon was
granted.

CREATE GOOD IMPRESSIONS.

The immediate vicinity of Topeka
does not furnish many examples of con-
fornity with the law on the part of
property owners who have hedge fences.
There is a statute, a reasonable law,
generally so conceded, requiring the
trimming of hedge fences, but there are
few property owners who comply with
it. Almost within the city there is on
Huntoon street a. long hedge owned by
Washburn college which has been
neglected too long. South and west of
this fence are several others which need
attention. This is not intended as
criticism against the particular in
dividuaIs TO whom reference may be
made, but the beauty of city and its
surrounding territory is largely due to
the appearance of the roads and streets.
Neglect of this kind is apparent on ev
cry highway out of the city.
Now that the street force has been at
work for several days cutting weeds
and grading the streets the property
owners might easily contribute their
portion to the landscape by trimming
the hedge fences and cutting the weeds
adjoining the yard fences.
The general personal impressions of a
country are uniformly those gained by
persons passing along the public high
ways. If these thoroughfares be not
well kept the impression given is a bad
one and it lasts. If the streets of a city
are unclean and overgrown with weeds
the impression is not an agreeable one.
especially when the one who views such
conditions is from some other town.
Trash and weeds in the streets will
give Topeka a bad name The people
have it in their power to prevent this.
So. let all work together to give the city
clean streets and attractive highways.
It costs nothing; demands no subscrip-
ton or guaranty but the result is far
reaching
