James Bryce a New Style Ambassador

quainted with so important a portion
of the national machinery, and he took
the easiest means at hand and called
first. Many of the governors found
time TO return the visit. Others could
not. but they all met James Bryce and
took his measure just as he took
theirs. Mr.. Bryce entertained Bryan,
John Mitchell. Andrew Carnegie and
many of the governors at dinner. II
any man on this continent will know
what this meeting of the governors
meant, it will be the publicist from
Great Britain. He intends to write of
II also, and it is comfortable to realize
that he has obtained all his data at
first hand and from reliable sources.
Mr.. Bryce has been a revelation to
the silk-hat-kept-in-a-b bandbox kind of
diplomatist usually assigned to the
Washington mission. He has taken
high ground, and the pace he has set
is not altogether pleasing to his col
leagues. Many of the ambassadors
now in this country would cling to the
old ways IL they felt secure in SO do
ing. But Mr.. Bryce has revolutionized
the service. The ambassadors cannot
draw the line socially. even politically.
They must get in the limelight, make
speeches, give interviews. mingle with
the common herd. Such men as can
not do this are being called home.

OF GoEsEL.

Frankfort, Ky.-By announcing the
pardon Saturday of Caleb Powers and
James Howard Governor Wilson
most noted criminal cases in the his
Tory of this state, in which people all
over the United States have formally
expressed their interest by signing
petitions for pardon
In the closing days of January, eight
years ago, while the contest of William
Goebel for the gubernatorial seat oc-
cupied by Governor Taylor was being
held, Goebel was shot, dying later from
his wound.
The shot was believed to have come
from the half open window of the sec
retary of states office. and as Caleb
Powers was then filling that position,
suspicion was at once directed toward
him and his arrest followed.
Four times has Powers been put on
trial for his life on the charge of COM
plicity in the murder, the first three
trials resulting in conviction and SEN
tence, death being the penalty in two
| trials.
On the fourth trial, which came af-
| ter the case had been carried to the
United States court being finally ap-
| pealed 10 the supreme court, winch
sent it back to the state courts. the
jury disagreed and thereupon the eff
forts for a pardon for Powers, as well
| as for James Howard, who had been
| convicted some years ago on charge
of completely. were renewed Names
of many hundreds of thousands of SYM
pathizers of all parties and all sections
were appended to the petitions that
! poured in on Governor Wilson, who
for several weeks has been consider
/ ing the case.
In announcing his decision Governor
Wilson says:
Il grant Caleb Powers a fun and I'M
conditional pardon for the offense with
which he stands charged and restor-
! alton of all his rights of citizenship.
| and order that he be forthwith released
| from Jail. My reason for granting a
pardon is that am fully con-
vinced that he is. beyond all reason
able doubt, innocent of the crime
! charged against him, and that any fur
ther prosecution against him for the
crime charged would be great wrong
and against the peace and well being
of the commonwealth
The governors reasons for the par
don of James B. Howard are set forth
to be that after careful examination
| of all of the evidence and proceedings
of the trial ne is satisfied that Howard
had nothing whatever to do with the
murder of William Goebel, but that
| Henry Youtsey formed the plan which
was carried out in the murder.
