PATTERSON.

Gov. Patterson exercised clemency
in two cases Wednesday, both Of
which involved minor offenses, al
though one was aggravated to such
an extent that the sentences imposed
upon the prisoner aggregated about
ten years This was the case of Law
renee Cullum, a Negro convicted for
petit larceny and carrying a pistol by
the Davidson Criminal Court in Sep
TENDER, 1902. He was found guilty Of
larceny in nine cases and was SEN
fenced to eleven months and twenty
nine days in the workhouse for each.
He was also fined $50 for carrying 9
pistol. Cullum's application for elem,
ency was recommended by the County
Judge and the workhouse Commission
ers, who stalled that this mar had
served owe five years in the work
house; that he had made an excellent
prisoner, has been diligent and faith
full in all duties assigned to him, and
they feel that common justice and the
cause of humanity demand that he be
pardOned. He also has to pay $3.50
costs, He was pardoned of the re.
mainder of the sentences and relieved

GOING HOME TO VOTE
Reduced Railway Rates Cause For
Many Government Employees
Leaving the Capital.
Speci,, to the Herald.

SpeCl3l TO the HeTalu
Washington, D. c., Oct. 29.-The
general exodus of voters from the
District of Columbia has begun. The
reduced railway rates offered this
year are the best ever given by the
railways. Heretofore it was possible
to get rates to points only in the
middle states and few of the east
ern states This year the voter may
.sty ticket from Canada to Mexico,
and as far west as Denver. The re-
duced rate this year makes it possible
for the resident of the District of Co
lumbia to go home to vote at cost
of only one and half cents a mile,
when in 1904 the rate was three cents
mile.
The outgoing trains during the re-
mainder of the week will carry sew
eral thousand voters in addition to
those who have already left the city.
Many clerks use their annual leave of
absence for this purpose. and it is
difficult to estimate the exact number
of voters who will have gone home by
Tuesday Henry NJ Camp, who has
been intrusted by the republican cam
paign committee with the task of get
ting out the republican residents eSti-
mates that there are twenty thousand
republican voters in Washington and
that. each of these influences two or
three voters inshis home state.
The government printers and the
employees of the postoffice department
usually exercise their privilege of go
ing home TO vote to a greater extent
than the workers in the other branch
es of the government service. 1t is
estimated that fully sixty per cent of
the employees in these two depart
ments this year will go home to vote.
Already several hundred of them have
left the city, and it is said that twice
as many more will go within the next
three days. The interior department,
department of agriculture and other
departments also are represented in
the general exodus which began today.
Those living in the nearby states will
not leave until Sunday or Monday. |
The situation as it is sized up by the
campaign managers is evidenced by
the fact that both parties are exerting
every effort to induce the employees
who hail from Ohio, Indiana, New
York, Connecticut and Nebraska to go
home to vote
Only "corporafs guard" will be
left at the capitol building, where the
employees, where the employees, who
are strictly political appointees out
side of civil service rules, are all en-
ergetic campaign workers in their
home states. All of the employees and |
clerks at the White House who de-
sired to go home to vote were paid off
today.
