matter Of consideration, not as q mat
ter that he has earned or is entitled

wise policy Of the State. when a man
surrenders himself, gives up and
pleads guilty. and because Of other
services rendered to the State, that
some small consideration. not much
but some, be extended"
The defendant rose again.
"Mr. Mcnamara" said Judge
Bordwell, you have heard the courts
remarks to your brother, and in no
small degree. sir, they undoubtedly
apply to you. And, as in his case,
the fact that the court might not
mete out to you the extreme penalty
Of the law is In no degree due to any
doubt that you merit it, but simply
because 1t appears to be the part of
wisdom to do otherwise.

nounces on your plea Of guilty to this

Judge Smith Establishes Precedent
i'm Charleston.
Charleston, Dec. 4.-The precedent
was established today in the United
States circuit court that papers Of
citizenship will not be given to any
applicant who Is engaged in the sale
Of liquor in violation Of the State
statute. Judge Smith making the rul-
ing after having obtained the peti-
toners statement that he was engag-
ed in the sale Of liquor. A number
of petitioners came before the court
today to be made citizens, this being
the regular day for citizenship pro-
ceedings and. Judge Smith personally
examined the applicants. Among the
number was James Patrick O'Connor,
native Of Mayo, Ireland, and a sub
ject Of Great Britain. In questioning
O'Connor, 1t was established on the
petitioners own admission, under
oath that he was engaged in the sale
OF liquor and Judge Smith imme-
diately declared that he would ad-
NIT no foreign resident Of this dis
trict to citizenship, who engaged in
the violation Of the law, and he re-
fused O'Connor's petition. The re-
fusal was made without prejudice,
however, and later O'Connor may Sc
cure citizenship papers by quitting
the Illegal business and again pre-
senting himself before the federal
court.

Diversity Crops IL They Wish 10
Hold Cotton.
Washington. Dec. 5.-President
Finley, Of the Southern Railway Com
pan, in a recent address at the Black
Soil Belt Fair at Demopolis, Alabama,
laid greet stress upon the Importance
OF diversified farming as enabling the
cotton planter to market his crop to
better advantage. Speaking Of this
subject today, Mr.. Finley said
THE cotton grower who diversifies
his farming. at least to the extent Of
rendering himself independent Of
outside sources Of supply for all OF
the grains, fruits. vegetables, meats,
and dairy products consumed on his
farm, Is enabled to market his cotton
when there is an economic demand
Tor 1t. He Is not compelled to sell
regardless of market conditions, as
has 80 often been the case, under the
necessity Of meeting obligations in
Cured for food-stuffs and other ne
sessitles OF life by reason Of failure to
produce them on the farm. The cot
ton farmer is, Of course. in a still
more advantageous position If he car
ries diversificatlon to the extent of
having something besides cotton for
sale. 1t Is particularly desirable that
the farmer should have steady
source Of income throughout the
ear. The local demand throughout
no South for dairy products, poultry
and eggs is such as to enable the
farmer who produces a. surplus OF
these commodities to have a weekly
income throughout the year sufficient
to meet his bills with local merchants
and regular income, such as this,
even though the amount received
per week may be small, will go far
In ass sting him to market his cotton
when there Is an economic demand
for H.
