EXECUTIVE CLEMENCY.

The Newbern News has wise and SEN
sible editorial on Executive Clemency that
is timely. 1t says that Executive par
dons are becoming a trife too frequent
and shows that there is need of reform
all along the line. 1t is so good that we
give place to it as follows:
"a few months ago the Governor of this
State pardoned a man who for some Of
Tense or another, had served several
years in the penitentiary, and still had a
number of years to his debit. The petit
ton asking for the pardon, was signed by
numerous citizens, among whom were the
solicitor who had prosecuted the prisoner,
a majority of the jury that convicted him,
and last, the Judge who had sentenced
him. This seems to be carrying the mat
ter to most unreasonable extreme 1t
places a responsibility upon the Governor
which he in no wise merits. 1t makes
him a target for criticism and censure,
no matter whether the pardon be granted
or not.
'In this particular case, if the solicitor
was persuaded that the man was nno-
cent he should have mol pressed the case.
But no matter what he believed, he prose-
cuted the prisoner with such persistent
vigor that he procured his conviction. And
the same with the Judge and jury If
the latter was composed of honest men,
and they were satisfied that the prisoner
was innocent, they should have said so in
their verdict. And if the judge himself
had felt doubts as to the prisoners guilt
he could have set the verdict aside But
none of these things were done. The man
was tried, convicted, sentenced and sent
to the State prison. Later on, they signed
the petition to the Governor, thereby
throwing the onus of the mans imprison-
ment chad the pardon been refused) upon
the Governors shoulders.
"Our courts must do better than this if
they would retain the respect of the peo-
pie. They must not send a criminal to
the penitentiary and then importune the
Governor to turn him out. If this prac-
tice continues the courts may as well
cease doing business. We believe in eX-
tending mercy where mercy is due, but
when it interferes with the courts of jus
tice we protest in the name of humanity
When man is tried by court of JUS
tice, convicted of crime, and sentenced.
it stands to reason that he is guilty. The
officers of the court should therefore be
content to let justice take it's course, and
not importune the executive to undo what
they themselves have done. Executive
clemency is alright when properly employ
ed, but like great many other things. it
is likely to be abused on various and
sundry occasions

COBB C0UNTY'S EXHIBIT.
Has n Habit of Winning Prizes snd

Has n Habit of Winning Prizes and
Doesn't Expect to Fail This Time.
Among the expectant prize winners
when the committee on agricultural
award comes around is Coob county.
Cobb won the $1,000 first prize at the
Atlanta Interstate Fair and came to
Savannah with the intention of repeat
ing this performance. The county has
never made but four exhibits and each
time has taken the prize.
Messrs j. A. Manget, ]. M. Cogburn
and J. G. Morris are in charge of the

much interest in the exhibit as their

same. honey. both in the comb and in

RAD NEWS FROM HOME MADE HIM
DESPERATE.

Apparently as Cheerful as Ever He
Continued to Chat with His
Friends After Swallowing the
Deadly Dose--Had Burned Letters
He Had Just Received and Gave
No Explanation of His Action.
Doctor Who Was Called Had to
Get Back to the Races-sanguinet-
Supposed That the Letters Con-
tanned Bad News.
James Sanguienetto, an employee of
Mrs. McCraine's photo establishment
on the Plaza at the Fair grounds,
committed suicide yesterday about /
O'Clock, by taking cyanide of potas-
stun. The mans decision, to cut short
his career was suddenly formed and
carried out with dispatch. He had
apparently been in the best of humor
all the morning, laughing and joking
with his acquaintances among the con-
cessionaires among whom he was we'll
known. About noon Sanguinetto re-
ceived some mail from the North. He
read these letters very carefully, but
said nothing to anyone of their con-
tents. Then he went outside the tent
made little pile of the mail he had
just received, struck a match to it
and watched the letters burn. Return
ing to the tent he drank down a cup
full of the acid mixture used in de-
veloping the negatives in the quick
process used by the photo outfit. His
action was unnoticed by the other en-
ployes and they We're not aware of it
until some minutes later. Without
speaking to those in the tent Sangui-
netto walked out to the candy tent
of his friend Lamble, another Coney
Island man, and passed some words
very pleasantly with him. Apparently
if he did not know that death was how
ering over him.
Leaving the candy tent Sanguinetto
came back to the photo tent. The dose
was now beginning to have it's effect,
and he was staggering slightly.
Here goes the mains of it," he said
| to Richard Chenowith, another en-
| ploye of the tent. Chenowith, although
a Coney Islander himself. did not quite
catch the meaning of this and inquir-

Doctor Was in a Hurry.
-''I took the cyanide and that finishes

| AS he made this statement he reeleo
and fell. The people in the tent knew
what taking cyanide of potassium

| grandstand and one of the gate keep
ers pointer out a doctor to him. The
name of this physician could not b.
learned, but he seems to have beer
more interested in the races than il
the suicide. He went to the tent, mad
some inquiries as to what Sanguinet

being done he remarked that he coult

GUARDS WILL FIGHT.

They Don't Want to Give Up the
historical Uniform of Gray.
The Savannah Volunteer Guards will
fight the bill pending in the Legisla-
ture, which seeks to require every COM
mand of the State Troops to wear ex-
clusively the regulation blue uniform.
This will mean that the Guards VIII
be forced to discard their historic uni
form of gray, around which cluster
many sentimental associations. which
make it dear to the heart of every
member of the corps.

command last night Maj Williamson,
commanding the battalion, was en-
powered to appoint committee TO
fight the bill in the Senate and House
Of Representatives of the General AS
