case. But these do not seem to
convince many people that his
position is tenable. 1t should be
remembered, however, that those
on the outside are in quite a diff
ferent position from that in which
a governor is placed in matters of
this kind. Such a responsibility
is aserious thing to contemplate
and there should be deliberation
before denunciation. every time,
in referring to incidents like the
Shemwen case. It is human to
err and a public officer is simply
a man after all. If the Governor
has made a mistake in this in
stance, let US hope that he may
be fortunate enough to avoid fall
ing into similar errors in the
future.

THE SREMNE[L CASE.

Baxter Shemwell's sentence of
five months in jail has been COM
muted by Governor Kitchin to
five days in jail, a fine of $500
and costs in the case. It will be
remembered that the offense for
which Shemwell was tried and
convicted in Guilford county
superior court was demanding
the holding up of a through train
at Lexington, by drawing two
revolvers and compelling the con-
ductor to let him off. In Decem-
Der the Governor granted Shem-
well areprieve until April l, on
account of i'll health. He was
severely criticised for taking that
course, for the reason that Shem-
well appeared on the streets of
Salisbury and Lexington the day
following the Governors an
nouncement, when he was sup
posed to be in Hot Springs, Ark,
undergoing treatment for rheu-
matism. Some weeks ago Shem-
well applied for pardon, or change
of sentence to fine, claiming that
confinement would be very de-
to his health. He has
since been examined by number
of physicians, the majority of
whom confirmed the claim that a
term in jail might imperil his
health. Finally Governor Kitchin
reached the conclusion above
stated and in so doing has
brought upon himself the most
severe criticism of any act that
has transpired during his adj
ministration. We do not question
the motive which prompted the
in taking the action he
did in this matter, but feel that
he has made a mistake. Too
many criminals become seriously
i'll when confronted by punish
ment for their crimes. Mr.. Shem-
well did not appear very solicit
Gus about his physical condition
when he pulled those two revolt
and defed that Southern
Railway conductor.
The reasons offered by the
for extending executive

well cover six typewriter pages

republican policies in the West
These two democratic victories
are the fore-runners of the land
slide to democracy at the fall
elections. The people are be-
coming impatient under the
oppression of republican rule in
these days of tariff robbery and
favoritism to privileged classes.
The cost of living is excessive
beyond endurance, yet no mea-
sure of relief is offered by the
republican party.
I'm this daysof unrest and poll
teal prophecy there seems to be
general agreement upon one
evident feature of the present
administration, this being the
failure of Mr.. Taft to make
good" in any particular. Upon
this everybody seems to be
agreed, democrats, insurgents
and regular republicans. He has
been a successful failure = in
SO far as redeeming his ante
election pledges to the people are
concerned. His intimate asso-
Citations with Aldrich and Can
non are an earnest of this fact.
1t is little wonder that his party,
as a whole, declines to follow
where the logical conclusion of
the Presidents late advices
would lead. Aldrich and Can
non declare the Payne tariff law
the best ever and Mr.. Taft
says amen! Gigantic industrial
monopalies continue to extort
excessive prices for the neces-
saries of life from the people
without a protest from the
White House.
So it appears that Aldrichism
and Cannonism are already to
he front as campaign issues this
year. Result: A democratic
next year, ten demo-
,ratssfrom North Carolina.

SouthC Carolina and east Tennessee
To his personal efforts is largely
due the gratifying success of the
meeting here last week. Doctor
Pratt is deeply interested in the
development of the States re-
sources and has conceived the
idea that one of our greatest
needs is better roads. He has
canvassed the State thoroughly,
more than once, in pursuing the
work of the geological survey and
knows exactly where and when
to strike. The meeting on last
Wednesday must have been pleas
ing to him after weeks of effort
to make it a success. Good roads
enthusiasts are fortunate in hav-
ing the assistance and untiring
efforts of such a man as Doctor
Pratt.
Inasmuch as Hendersonvihe
and Henderson county will re-
ceive greater benefits from the
completion of the proposed high
ways than any section traversed
by either of the lines suggested,
it is up to" our people to get
busy while the door of opportun-
ity is open to them. We have no
well-defned plan to suggest, but

possible assistance to the adj

THE GOOD ROADS MEETING.

A better day is dawning for
Western North Carolina. This
section is destined to. become the
playground of the world in the
no distant future. The large
n lumber of delegates from other
states in attendance at the good
roads meeting here onWendesday
of last week and the great en-
thusiasm manifested means that
a con certed effort is to be made
to bring Hendersonville into closer
communication with her neigh
boring cities upon every side.
All of the speeches delivered and
the resolutions adopted, without
a dissenting voice, indicates the
unanimity with which the people
of Western North Carolina, east
Tennessee and upper South Caro-
lima are going about the task of
constructing great highways
from the lowlands. to the numer-
/ Gus resorts of this beautiful and
delightful section. And the pres
enoe in the meeting of numerous
citizens of this county is a further
evidence of the growing senti-
ment for improved highway con-
struction amongst our own people.
This event was, indeed, the
greatest impetus ever given the
good roads movement in North
Carolina and gratifying results
are reasonably sure to follow.
The meeting was held under
the auspices of the Southern APP
palachian Good Roads Associat-
ion and the North Carolina Geo
logical and Economic Survey.for
the purpose of considering the
feasibility of constructing three
great highways, -Greenville-
Hendersonville-A Char
ottee-Asheville Knoxville and
Spartanburg : Hendersonville.-
Asheville. The delegates voted
unanimously to endorse the prop
position to proceed with the build-|
ing of these suggested lines at
once and pledged their respective
communities to give all possible
encouragement in furtherance
of the work. Every county along
either Of the proposed lines was
represented in Wednesdays
meeting and responded to the call
for suggestions of advice or en-
enlargement. All of them re-
ported progress and gave numer-
GUS expressions of encourage
ment. Representatives from
Greenville, Spartanburg and other
points in South Carolina, Knox
vile. Tenn, Asheville, Char
lotte, Rutherfordton, Shelby,
Columbus, Marshall, Saluda, Try
on, Brevard, and elsewhere in
North Carolina, were in evidenced
and expressed the greatest hope
that the three highways contem-
plated would be realities before
the close of the present year.
Ihe leading spirit IN this good
roads movement is DIR. Joseph
Hyde Pratt, State Geologist of
North Carolina, and President of
the Southern Appalachian Good
Roads Association. He conceived
the idea of holding a convention.
