If He Does Not Intervene Billek VIII
Be Hanged

Springfield, ILL.,, April 9.-Unless Gov
ernor Dineen or the state board of
pardons intervenes Herman Billek will
hang In Chicago April "a. The
supreme court today denied Billek's
petition for a rehearing.
The condemned man is Bohemian
fortune teller, who is accused of hay-
ing caused the death of several MEM
bers OF Chicago family named vzral,
who perished one by one of poisoning.
After Billek's conviction, Father P, J.
O'Callaghan, head of the Paulist order
in Chicago, became convinced that
Billek was innocent. Later two of the
principal witnesses against Billek ac-
knowledged that their testimony was
perjury done at the instance of a DO
lice official and an assistant prosecu-
tor, whose alleged motive was to gain
prestige and promotion.

HOCH SHOWS HIS RECORD.
Hasn't PardOned as Many Convicts as
Did Governor Bailey.

Governor Hoch has had his clerks
dig up his "pardoning' record, and
presents it for the purpose of demon
strating that he has not pardoned and
eonvictH as freely age tffd
Governor Bailey, his predecessor. The
reason that Governor Hoch has be-
come known as a liberal dispenser of
pardons is probably because he par
doned three celebrated convicts-Em-
NETT Dalton, Willie Sell and J. e.
MARCEL.
Governor Hoch has been in office
thirty-nine months and Bailey was in
office twenty-four months all to-
gether. Governor Hoch has released
103 men during his time in Office and
Governor Bailey released 1O1 men in
less time. Governor Hoch has granted
more unconditional pardons than did
Bailey, but the latter was long on
communications of sentence. Bailey also
granted more conditional pardons than
has Governor Hoch.
The following table shows the mum.
ber of men released by each governor
and the kind Of release, whether an
unconditional pardon, a conditional
pardon or a Communication Of sentence

TOO MUCH POLITICS.

1t IS to be regretted TO see the
appearance Of so much politics in
the Grand United Order OF Odd
Fellows. There was a time when
one could boast of the purity and
benevolence OF this great ancient
order.
The great men of this order,
so far as colored Americans are
concerned, have passed away.
Their deeds do no seem to be OBJ
ject-lessons to the young element
which now exists and controls
this great organization. Politics
and graft seem to be the stock in
trade. Great men have been re-
moved to make room for these
grating politicians,
The Southern members Of the
order must come forward and
place one of their own number
in command, and thus redeem
from the grafters and politicians
in the order one Of the greatest
organizations in the world. The
day will come when such men as
Howe, Knox, Davis and others
will vindicate themselves. Many
of them don't like such men as
Wright, Mannings, Johnson, Wat
son and others Of such high sense
of honor.
There is too much politics.
The Washington bee., 1908-10-03

about FIVE hundred colored votes
and no more, and the majority
OF these viii be in New York. In
New Jersey, the colored vote is
almost solid for Mr.. Taft, not
withstanding the attitude OfBish-
op Alexander Walters.
There IS no dissatisfaction
among the colored voters in the
southern part Of the State.and not
enough in the northern part that
will affect the Republican ticket.
There are a number Of colored
men out for the stuff, or the
filthy lucre;' > so to speak: aside
from that, the sensible colored
men have nothing to do with the
DemOcrtic party.
Colored Americans may be
crazy, but indeed they are not
fools" "
