MOORE MUST DIE.
Governor Will Not Interfere With
Rapist's Sentence.

Ashby Moore the Sampson county
rapist must die the death on the gal
lows. He was convicted of rape at the
May term of Sampson county criminal
court and sentenced to be hanged. The
prisoner had fair trial, and the only
question | would consider was that of
the sanity of his mind, whether he wa;
responsible mentally for his heinous
crime.
The counsel for Moore did not take
IN appeal after the trial: judge failed
set aside the verdict, and there was
t one time talk of lynching the fell
ow, as the prosecutriX was a little
.leVen-year-old girl
The plea for communication was made
the Governor on the ground thai
Moore did not know right from wrong,
md Governor Glenn assured the coun-
sci in the case that if three reputable
physicians would examine the prisoner
md certify that Moore was irrespon-
iible. he would commute the sentence,
otherwise the law must take it's course
He later received information that no
physicians would certify to the rapists
insanity, and the Governor NIterday
stated that he must refuse to interfere
further with the execution of the SEN
ence.

WAS MISQUOTED.
Governor Glenn Did Not Say He Could
Grant Prison Bounds to Refers
and Sorrell

Governor r. b. Glenn yester day
stated that the report published in
another Raleigh newspaper that he
had said that he had the power :,
grant prison bounds to Rogers and
Sorrell, now i'm Jail for embracery,
was absolutely incorrect.
The statement made was in connec-
ton with an interview printed in the
paper as coming from Col. j. G. l..
Harris, counsel for j. Rowan Rogers,
who states that his clients health is
now improved and that he will not
ask prison bounds
Governor Glenn says that he rec
ogniZes that he has not the power
to grant prison bounds and that he
never said that he had. His power,
he says, is to commute or pardon, and
that he also had power to commute
sentences to so many hours in Jail and
so many in the sunshine. AS to the
Rogers and Sorrell case he would not
change the sentence unless the condi-
ton of Rogers was shown to be criti-
cal, and his life to be in danger from
further Imprisonment this on the affi-
davit of two physicians whom he, the
Governor, should select.
Governor Glenn laid particular en-
phasiS upon his statement that he had
not said that he could grant prison
bounds" and that without the case
being one certified by physicians of
his selection, if so desired, as des-
perate one he had no idea of making
any change in the sentence of the
men now in Jail for embracery.

in the region around Calhoun, Ga.
The uplands surrounding that town are

would seem an impossibility to culti-

farseeing men of the place determined
to sry to grow peaches On this ROCKY,

could with difficulty be sold for 81
per acre are now worth from $50 to
500 per acre, and the profits on IN
yestment are each year often more
than 100 per cent: that is to say, the
first good peach crop will pay all the
initial outlay for land and orchard
and still leave good argin of profit.
