State Superintendent Jones, Of the
department of public instruction, has
sent to all of the judges and chair
men of county courts of Tennessee q
circular letter calling attention to the
provisions Of the general educational
act of 1909 with reference to pay of
county superintendent. This act pro-
vides that where the county pays the
superintendent as much as $3.50 the
State will contribute an equal sum.
But the State will pay this amount
no matter what the county pays pro
vided it is above $3.50, the object of
the act being to make che minimum
salary of the county superintendent
$500 per annum.
At the meeting of the quarterly
court on next Monday the salary of
the superintendent for this county
will be fixed. The superintendent now
receives a salary of $1,000 per year
which is very small as compared with
other counties of the population and
wealth. With the $3.50 added by the
State it will give the superintendent
a fairly reasonable compensation. 1t
Is believed that the county court will
Jake this view of the matter and /
cave the salary as it is fixed at this
line unchanged.
superintendent Graham is very pop
liar with the court as he is with the
educators and the school patrons of
he county. He has given the most
+ his time to the schools for the last
our years and his friends and the
riends of education argue that he is 6
ntitled to the increase made by the
tate. And to cut down the county
alary because the State has made pro-
ision for the superintendent would
e contrary to the intent and purpose q
[ the act which was passed not to
elieve the counties of any obligation
ut to give the superintendent ade-
tate compensation.

HON. REAu e. FOLK.

There should be little doubt about
the reelection of Hon. Reau e. Foil
as Treasurer and Insurance Commits
sioner. There is no doubt that In
again electing him to that office the
members of the Legislature will re-
feet the sentiment of majority of
the people of Tennessee. Mr.. Folk
has been an exceptionally efficient
officer. He has always conducted the
affairs Of his department with an eye
single to the best interests Of the
people. During the ten years that he
has most acceptably served in an Inn
portant and most responsible position
no breath of scandal has been direct
ed against him. Every legislative
committee that has examined his Of
flce has made a report entirely COM
plimentary and very gratifying to
the taxpayers. He has experience
and ability and the election Of an
other would not in view of all the cir
,umtances promote the interests Of
he taxpayers and that should be the
supreme consideration OF the legisla,
ors.

-Nho is the greatest offender the po

Who is the greatest offender the poor
mountaineer who, perhaps for con
sideratioR that helps to cloth the max
ed and feed the hungry children,
stuffs the ballot box or the high and
trusted Official, who by piece OF
legerdermain deliberately thwarts the
will of the people and by counting
admittedly fraudulent votes gives q
certificate to one who was denied an
election by the people? This is a query
that the Secretary OF State might
ponder over and think upon during
the holidays.

pARpoNINe MURDERERs.

Patterson pardoned sixteen murd'
srers In one day recently. They we're
given their liberty on Christmas eve.
OF course it is all very well to extend
eiemency at this season and it Is
quite appropriate to show mercy on
the occasion Of the saviors birth. but
Il is a ,maudlin sentiment indeed that
win approve this wholesale pardon
ing of those who have been convict
cd of taking life. 1t is in fact desc
Grafton of the day of peace on earth
and good win to reward sixteen who
have shed human blood.
The Herald does not know the facts
in all the cases where the Governor
extended clemency but it has pretty
accurate knowledge of the proof upon
which some of the pardoned convicts
were convicted, and it knows that the
record did not justify pardons. In
nine cases out Of ten, aye in ninety
nine out of hundred, convictions /
for murder in this State are justified
by the facts. It Is a difficult matter |
to convict the guilty and where there
il any loophole whatever the jury
IL usually only too anxious to permit
80. /
Hence in view of these facts the
Governor pardons for murder ccnsti-
tute a gross abuse of the pardoning
power. No wonder we have an ever
Increasing number of hcmicides in
Tennessee. No wonder our record
grows redder every year. Alter the ,
STATE has secured conviction, there ,
is little chance that the Judgment Of
the courts will be carried into execu' ,
ton. Under Paterson and under f,
some of his predecessors too, 1t has
been an easier matter for a murderer
10 secure a pardon than for a thief to
obtain clemency In proportion to
convictions there are more murderers
pardoned than there are any other G
,lass of offenders. q
This is q gross and wholly unwar-
.anted perversion Of the pardoning II
,ower Murderers should be the very c
asst offenderers to obtain executive Il
;lemency. Until they are, until the e.
'eop,e Of this country shudder at the II
reeing Of red handed slayer laws u
viii not be enforced and human life Il
Fill not be safe. RI
There ara not dozen intelligent pl
1en in Tennessee familiar with the al
roceedings of Tennessee courts who ID
ill believe for one moment that te
here has been year in this State Al
,ithin the last thirty when sixteen "a
r even six persons have been wrong ty
lily convicted of murder And yet IN
le Christmas murder pardons grant ou
| by Patterson represent only por- en-
on of the slayers who has restored is
liberty during the past twelve at
onths. What a sad commentary en-
Jon our civilization it is that of the en-
rty pardons granted on Christmas ms
xteen were to murderers and two ale
'rsons who attempted to commit pc
urder. The little sneak thief who Sal
rhaps steals to keep soul and body by
gether has infinitely less chance to
tain clemency in Tennessee than a
Id blooded assassin.

Stone Worth About SIS.

ATLANTA, Ga, Jan. 22.-While
digging in a back yard on Auburn
avenue, William Snowdon, a negro,
unearthed a small stone of such
brilliancy that he took it to a jew
eler, who announced. a diamond in
the rough. Snowden says he was
burying a dog when he noticed some
thing in his shovel which glittered.
He stopped and picked up what ap-
peared to be a piece of glass little
larger than pea, carelessly dropped
it into his pocket, and completed the
burial
Later in the day, when he exam
ined it again, he was struck by the
peculiar way in which it refracted the
light, so he took 1t to D. A. Tobias,
a jeweler of East Alabama street.
When the jeweler told the negro that
the stone was an uncut diamond the
latter was astonished, but seemed
willing to accept 81 for it.
Mr.. Tobias says the stone is a
rough diamond of the first water,
that it weighs 2 SIS carats, and that
he thinks it worth Sc carat uncut.

ANOTHER GUESS ABOUT

Spokane Paper Declares It's Only
o. R. & N. Seeking Puget
Sound Terminals.

SPOKANE, Wash, Jan. 22-Rob-
ert e. Strahorn, of Spokane, presi-
dent of the North Coast Railway
company, who has figured in the
newspapers of the continent for two
years as 1.-The man of mystery" and
whose project is the enigma of the
railroad world, Is declared by The
Spokane Press to be the western rep
resentative of the Union Pacific sys-
tenn. The Press says it has positive
information that the North Coast
line Is being constructed between
Spokane and Seattle and points on
Puget Sound to give the Oregon
Railroad & Navigation company coast
connections from Spokane and Walla
Walla. adding that this is necessary
to enable the Hartman system to Sc
cure its share of grain tonnage from
the Palouse and Big Bend districts
in eastern Washington, which pro-
duced 35750,000 bushels of wheat in
1909. The North Coast company has
expended more than 100000 for
right of-way and terminal grounds in
eastern Washington in the last four
teen months, but so far President
Strahorn has not disclosed the identi-
ty of the hackers of the project. He
will neither deny nor affirm the
latest connection.

FORTUNATE PURCHASE
BY YAKIMA BREEDER
Young Holstein Bull Is Full
Brother to Three World Record
Holding Heifers.

e. B. Marks of the Ahtanum made a
most fortunate purchase last spring
when he bought in New York young
Holstein bull from the Meyer herd at
Syracuse. The animal was selected
for him by Fl. c. Davis of the McKee,
who was making purchases at the time
for himself and Mr.. Marks, and re-
cent developments have proven the
excellence of his judgment They
have also served to greatly enhance
the value of the animal which now
has it's home in the Yakima valley at
the Marks ranch in the Ahtanum.
Three full sisters of the Marks
bull are now world record holders,
They are the junior and senior 2-year-
old heifers and the 3-year-old heifers,
the senior 2-year-old being the record
for heifer with her first calf In but
ter production they lead the world.
The heifers were all developed by Mr..
Meyer. who bred the Marks bull. An
other animal of his, more distant
relative of the Yakima Holstein, also
holds the worlds record for aged
COW. These facts alone place the
value of the representative of the
blood procured by Mr.. Marks al
over $1,000

BITTER BATTLE WACED
OVER ROOSEVELT
Enemy Finally Admits That We're
Teddy to Run Again He Would
Vote for Him.

M. o. Payne, who is in North Yak
ina in charge of the work of COM
plotting the installation of the Central
Heating plant, tells an interesting
anecdote that occurred in the Pullman
smoker on his way out from Chicago
recently.
A political discussion was started
early in the morning after leaving st.
Paul and finally the argument re-
volved around eX-President Roosevelt
as the storm center. One railroad man
in the party was very bitter in his
denunciation of Bwana Tumbo and
introduced facts and figures to prove
his contention. At times the argu-
ment became so heated that it
drowned out the rumble of the train
and listeners added sufficient fuel to
the fire to keep it at white heat. All
day long the battle was waged and
only absolute exhaustion put an end
to it.
The next morning Mr.. Payne says
that he ate breakfast with the railroad
man, who remarked: yet for all T.
have said and in spite of my bitter
ness, do you know that would prob
ably be fool enough to vote for that
man Roosevelt If he ever ran again -

PLEASANT VALLEY
DAM BREAKS AGAIN
Flood Waters Crush Concrete and
Dirt Embankment Intended to
Hold Them for Irrigation.

Flood water accommodating in the
reservoir of the Pleasant Valley Irri-
cation company, about 16 miles north
east of North Yakima, crushed the
great concrete and dirt embankment
Sunday, according to reports that
reached North Yakima, and the entire
supply of water has again been lost.
No details Of the disaster reached the
city.
year ago a similar conditions pre-
vailed in Pleasant valley and the
ranchers were forced to do without
water last summer. Fear is expressed
that, while there is enough water
from the flood period to supply the
irrigation canal, it cannot be retained
behind the dam and used during the
season.
