AGAINST PARDONING BISHOP
Sane and Sensible Reasons for Not
Doing So.

Arthur l.. Bishop, now serving
term in the penitentiary for killing
Tom Wilson in Charlotte. gives no.
tice that on the 5th of February he will
apply to Governor Glenn for par
don, and all persons who oppose the
pardon are asked to MAKE known the
fact to Governor Glenn. The Land
mark has no hesitancy in expressing its
opposition. Bishop. a travelling man.
with wife and children at Lynchburg,
went about this state seeking introduce
tiOns to young women and posing as
single man. He found some acquain-
tances in Charlotte. and on the occa-
sion of the murder went TO wilson's
home in company with Wilson's daugh-
ter and another woman. carrying
pocketful of wine or liquor. Wilson
was in bed asleep but his wife saw
Bishops conduct and Informed ner
husband. He went Immediately to the
room and ordered the woman visitor
and Bishop to be gone. Bishop stopped
to argue that he was gentleman
(save the markD and Wilson caught
hold of him to put him out. Then
Bishop shot and killed him-killed the
man in his own house while he was
trying to protect his family and rid his
home of the presence of an unWelcOme
intruder, whose intentions were OF
course not honorable. For this muir
der--that's what it was-BishOp was
convicted of manslaughter and got five
years in the penitentiary. He ought
to thank God daily that he got off with
his life. The punishment given is moth
ing compared to the offence. But, as
is the habit of such cattle. Bishop is
hiding behind his wife and children
and asking a pardon on their account.
He was thoughtful of them wnen he
was going about the country trying to
debauch young women. If Governor
Glenn grants a pardon in this case we
shall be very much surprised.-States-

"A statistician has estimated that
If one good grain were added to each
ear of corn grown in one of the states
of the orn belt. it would add 5000, 600
to the yearly product of the state. II
instead of one grain dozen were
added or il whole ear were added
to each hill, the grain would be cor
respondingly greater, running into the
millions in the latter case. Not only
in corn, but in all the products of the
farm, including live stock, improve
ment is the watchword of the times.
A single county like Winneshiek
would he largely enriched by adopting
the best methods in any agricultural
or live stock line of work, as manv
of our farmers are already doing. A
good agricultural paper like The
Homestead, of Des Moines, Iowa,
setting forth each week the best
methods of increasing the size and

toured the world, and received highest
praise everywhere, being more signally
honored by King Edward of England

COURT WARS
ON LOAN FIRM

TRENTON. n. j.. oct. 1O-Justice
Alfred Reed caused two sensations in
Mercer Court when he charged the
October Grand Jury with the duty Of
discovering alleged usury practiced by
loan companies and indicting without
regard to who. were engaged in such
illegal practices.
The court said he had discovered
that loan agencies in Trenton would
give but SIS on a 500 loan. and tie up
the property Of the borrower by a
chattel mortgage. According TO the
court, fake searches are charged TO
make a bill of expense which seems
legal TO the borrower.
The court denounced such illegal
methods as against public policy and
an outrage against the poor, and de-
mandel the searching investigations of
the Grand Jury.
The other sensation was a charge by
the Court that liTlor was being illeg-
ally sold to forelglers working on the
railroads around Trenton. and this
practical ccounted for much of the
lawlessness OF these men.
The court said tickets were sold to
the Italians and exchanged for whskey
