Big Rewards Offered for their
Capture
ISSUES PUBLIC ADDRESS
Says Resort to Mob Law Greatly m
jures the Good Name OF the
State-Appeas to Cool
People of Parish.
ISSUES PUBLIC ADDRESS

Baton Rouge, La May 6.-Governor
Blanchard today made an offer of reward
aggregating $500 to secure the arrest and
conviction of members of the mob which
on April 2e entered the parish jail at
Homer. La, and shot to death Dick
Craighead, awaiting new trial for the
murder of Mrs. Mckee and child. Fiji
teen hundred dollars is offered for the
identification and conviction of the en-
tire mob, twenty to twenty-five in num-
ber; $1,000 for the conviction of any five,
OF more. or $500 for the conviction Of any
one person who was a member of 1t. The
offer of reward is to remain in effect for
a year.
The governor issued an address to the
people of Claiborne parish denouncing the
assassination of Craighead, in which he
said:
This resort to mob law greatly Injuries
the good name of the state, and tends
greatly to impede her progress. Especial
ly does 1t work harm to the community
in which 1t took place. Whether Craig
head was innocent or guilty of the double
murder with which he stood charged has
nothing to do with 1t. In the eyes of
the law the parties who mobbed the jail
are as much subject to condemnation IL
Craighead were guilty, as they would be
IL he were innocent.
I'VE must inculcate respect for law and
order We must let it be known that
here in Louisiana life and property are
protected. We must make the law a ter
ror to those who defy 1t, and this mob did
defy 1t outrageousy.
"All good citizens owe it to the state.
to the community in which they live, and
to themselves to range themselves on the
side of the officers of the law in the ef-
fort that will be made to identify and
bring to trial those who formed the
mob
II appeal to the good people of the
parish to uphold the cause of law and
order The executive department will rem
der every assistance In its power to bring
the guilty parties to answer at the bar
OF justice for their crime"

Washington, May 6-(Special )-If an
epidemic that has recently broken out
among misunderstanding veterans through
out the country spreads the pension Of
flee will soon have sort of conscience
fund. which will rival that of the treas
ury department.
About two weeks ago grand army
veteran in the west wrote to the Conn
missioner of Pensions that he had recov-
cred the heatl he had lost years ago
and felt that he was no longer entitled to
draw a pension. This was followed by
several other waivers of pension claims
from pensioners in various parts of the
country. The most recent case is that
of man who lives at Pierre, s. d. A
letter from whom was received by Com
missioner Warner yesterday. 1t read;
Dear Mr.. Commissioner feel that l am
no longer entitled to draw a pension from
Uncle Sam. I was disabled for many
years. but now I am well. Christian
science has cured me and you need not
send me any more money"
This man draws pension of Sc month,
''The beauty of it is said Commits
sioner Warner in discussing the subject.
that whenever he wants to that man
can call on us to resume payment of
his pension and we will have to do so.
He does not relinqulsh any rights, and
if his cure should prove only temporary
he can come back into the fold and draw
his $6 every month"
Most pensions which have been relin-
quished lately, and there have been a
dozen or more since Mr. Warner came
into office were small ones, but one man
gave up SO Ga month.
