NEGRO F|ENOS
MAY Be MOBBED
One Shot by Posse When He
Started to Flee After
Arrest

Sutton, w. Va. Nov. 4.-Two or
ganized parties of men are today
securing the hills of this county
searching for two negroes believed
to have aided Charles Lewis. also a
negro. in dastardly assault upon
Mrs. Mary Lockhold, wife of a pros
porous farmer last night near the
small settlement Of Exchange. If the
negroes are caught, lynching is not
improbable. Lewis, the only known
member of the party of three, who are
thought to have been implicated in
the deed, is dead. having been shot
and killed by posse of men late last
night while endeavoring to escape
near this place.
According to Deputy Sheriff Will
liams, the three negroes went to the
home of George Lockhold. living but
a few miles from this place, and after
tying the farmer to tree and whip
ping him on his bare back with will
low switches, attempted an assault
upon Mrs. Lockhold. People who
happened to be passing the Lockhold
farm heard the screams of the woman
and the negroes fled at the approach
of the passersby.
A posse of farmers was organized
within short space of time and after
a diligent hunt, Lewis. one of the sup
posed trio of negroes, was apprehend-
ed. AS he turned to flee from his pur-
suers after being ordered to throw
up his hands he was shot and in
stantly killed.

Farmer Will Make the Most Of tho

Washington. Nov. 4.-Some day 1.-THE
steady increase Of population in the
United States is bound to overtax the
ability of the farmer to provide for
its sustenance, but that day is very
remote. according to Secretary Will
son of the agricultural department,
Nor will it be necessary in the Inn
mediate future to import grain for
bread. notwithstanding the doleful
predictions of some publicists. Every
thing depends upon the disposition of
the American farmer to make the
most of the resources of his land, and
to improve his methods of agriculture
in accordance with the needs of the
people.
The secretary is in an optimistic
mood just now and he points to the
figures of crop production showing
that the value of the American farm
ers' output for one single year aggre-
gated the enormous total of seven and
quarter billion dollars. That was
for the calendar year 1908, but the
secretary was confident that, having
In the mind higher prices of the pres

One last question was asked the
secretary: will American wheat go
below $1.00 again?"
Probably not" he replied, "but
there is no telling what might follow
such a disturbance in the industrial
and financial world as we had in
1907. and should be again meet such

ESCAPES GALLONS
Evidence and Circumstances Of
Case Reviewed by Minister {.
Of Justice

Ottawa, Nov. AIRS. James Robin
son. the woman under sentence to be
hanged at Sudbury three weeks
hence, for the murder of infants of
her daughters, will not have to suffer
the death penalty. This much has al
ready been decided, after a review of
evidence and the circumstances of the
case by the minister of justice. 1t is
very doubtful, however. If the cabinet
council will see its way clear to grant
full pardon. There is no precedent
for such a course In the history Of the
Dominion. In the only similar in
stance where sentence of death on q
woman was commuted, some years
ago, to limited term of imprison-
ment. the term was made fourteen
years and she was afterward liberated
after serving seven years.
The case is clearly one of murder
and even though the circumstances ali
cry for mercy 1t is doubtful II, under
the criminal code. a full pardon can
be granted. The matter will come
before the cabinet this week for con-
sideration. Meanwhile, the flood Of
petitions for clemency and; pardon
pouring into the department Of jus-
.4lAe 4ssnnabated. It IL estimated that
over one hundred and NIFTY THOUSAND
persons have already been heard from,
All sections Of Canada, from the At
lantic to the Pacific, are' represented,
and many letters are being. received
from the United States. Some of the
petitioners couch their prayer for
mercy in original poetry, Others write
essays or diatribes on the various as
poets of the case.

self from the grip of the sands at the
entrance to Ambrose channel, into

attempting to make port on her trip
here from Southampton via Cherbourg

before o'clock the steamer managed
to free herself and proceed up the
harbor to her dock. The steamer had

l want to say to you here, sir. on
this memorable occasion. in the pres
ence of this great assembly, and
voicing in some measure the senti-
ments of these peoples hearts. that
while many of us may have differed
with YOU in the past on the great
governmental questions that have
arisen for decision and while we may
still differ in the future as to the
policies that should be pursued by the
administration.-the country is too
large for us all to think the same
way-yet we of the south are espec-
tally gratified at the frank and open
manner in which you have always
dealt with the affairs of this portion
of the country. at the high ground
that you have always seemed to MAIN
tain towards our people. and espec-
tally at the generous sympathy you
have accorded us in our efforts to
work out the problems that press
hardest and closest upon our hearts.
And we welcome you today to our
midst in this spirit and will always
hold as great epoch in all our lives
the fact that we have had you with
us on an occasion like this.
Is it not so, my countrymen?
And l want to assure you further
in the same behalf. that for every
kindly thought you may entertain for
us we will each of us Give you four
fold in return.
Will we not my countrymen?
That for every courtesy we receive
at your hands, we will quadruple the
acknowledgment.
Will we not. my countrymen?
That for every act of appreciation
on your part towards us, we will
multiply our recognition in the loyal
love of our hearts for the great gov
ernment you represent and in the
prayers for your own well-being. and
in generous support of those great
measures which make for the upbuild-
ing and perpetuity of our Republican
form of government inherited from
our common ancestors, and in which
we all alike. with you, believe.

to the United States weather bureau,

other city in the nation; and whose

lived to see the time come when the
nations ruler since the war. in a
season of profound peace, with no
political exigency upon him, and no
great compelling emergency to sway
him, but only pursuant to a plan of
national visiting, has deemed this
southern state and this southern city
of ours, of sufficient Importance on
the map of the government to war
rant him in making them a part of
his itinerary. He selected the proper
time for his visit. for here is this
great state fair. he can see at glance
an epitome of all that Georgia is, and
all that Georgia can do.
Mr.. President. l have heard you
say once that you know the southern
people; that in the great court over
whidh you once presided, whose juris-
diction included two southern states,
you had learned to understand and
appreciate their character at its real
worth.
You know sir. that we have not
been much of a factor in the councils
of the national government since the
war. We have occupied rather an Off

And yet, think he comes with a
grander bulwark than all these; for
as his triumphal march across the

with him the undivided hearts of more

hydra-headed aggregation. the Ameri-

achieved In reconciling conflicting in
