GOVERNOR FREES
ROBT. ARMSTRONG
WAS CONDEMNED TO DIE
EIGHTEEN MEMBERS OF TWO
JURlES ALSO CONVINCED

Little Rock, Sept. l9.-Gov. Dona-

precedent in the state by granting an
absolute pardon to man in the shad
ow of the gallows.
Robert Armstrong, young negro.
was sentenced to hang Friday. Sept.

versed the first judgment on tech

June 2S, but the governor granted a
respite of ninety days. In the mean
Tune, an anonymous letter accidental
ly turned up, dated Dee. IL, and ad
dressed To w. N. Gray, whose home
had been entered by a burglar. The
writer confessed that he had commit
ted that crime and the one for which
Armstrong had been sentenced to die.

the Shooter" was killed last july.
letters were found among his effects,
the handwriting in which was pro-
nounced identical with that in the
anonymous letter. Armstrong had al
ways maintained his innocence, and
had attempted to prove an alibi.
Eighteen members of the two trial
Jurles and many citizens signed the
petition for the negro's pardon.
The governor declares his firm be-
lief in the negro's innocence. Prose-
cutting Attorney Rogers protested
against the pardon, declaring that he
believed the negro guilty, and that to
pardon him would be to encourage
mob law. Miss Hardcastle is now

knots are turned the same way.
To knot the fringe, take four threads

ed this year. The railroads are add
ing to their already large mileage and
have got ready for handling the crop
| thousands Of box cars The govern
ment agents and the railways are max
ing arrangements for from fifty to six
ty thousand extra farm hands in order
that the crop may be successfully and
quickly harvested, business men are
laying in larger stocks than usual, real
estate men are active, preparing for
the rush Of business that is sure to
follow. and everywhere there is the
note Of optimism. which seems to be
perfectly justifable.
There is, as has been said, a vast
area of the country still open for set
tlement and homesteading lying in the
center north. Speaking Of this part
a writer, who made the trip when the
crop was in its green stage, said:
"Just now, the whole country Is a
beautiful sight, as it presents itself in
full dress Of living green, varied in
shade, many places elegantly fringed
and interspersed with pleatings of
shrubbery and patches Of sweet scent
ed flowers in rose, yellow. white, pink,
scarlet. cardinal and purple. In trav-
cling over the virgin soil, have seen
some Of the most charming rolling
prairies. sloping hills, deep ravines.

and natural parks that one could wish
to behold, and all placed there without
the aid Of man. The land in general
is heavily matted with grass, mixed
with vetches and pea vines. nearly up
to the knee, and many millions of
acres Of which are going to waste
while beef. pork and mutton are soar
ing at prices heretofore unknown. The
comparatively small acreage under cul-
tivation reminds one of few small
garden patches.
when we consider the estimated
crop OF 300,000,000 bushels of wheat
for 1912, to be produced on these west.
ern prairies from these garden patches,
some faint idea can be formed by an
imaginative mind as to the immense
possibilities and rich heritage of glo-
rious western Canada"
The estimate of the wheat crop, as
made by the writer quoted, is exces-
sive, but with even $50 million bushels,
there will be great deal of satisfac.
tion on the part of the settlers.

men-George Kramer used to creep
down from his retreat and take walks
through the back streets-alone. All
others, he reasoned, were in bed and
safe from the peril that was always
with him. So George Kramer used
to walk at night, with the white death
ever at his elbow.
The years went by, and then Mrs.
Caroline Walsh moved into the Furman
street house Mrs. Walsh Is mother;
she has great mother love, which
means love for all. She got to know
the coughing man" by conversations
through the panels Of his door. She
saw his face rarely. But she hearten.
ed him-this mother, who was the only
one In the house to think. except with
loathing, of the coughing man."
Mrs. Walsh used to step to the
door almost every morning and ask II
there was anything s:le or her children
could do for Kramer-any little er-
rands. Usually they would go to the
grocery store for nim and leave the
food outside the closed door, because
Kramer insisted that they should not
come near him.
A few days ago Mrs. Walsh and the
children went out of town. When
they returned, and before she opened
her own door Mrs. Walsh knocked at
the door of the coughing man. NO
answer. More knocks, and still no an
swer. Then the janitor broke down the
locked door.
The man who had walked alone with
the white death for II years had con-
sented to go to a far country with
his grim companion.
The only possession OF value he left
behind him was 81. BY just 81 had the
coughing man. overcomputed that
margin of necessity which had been

being an estimate of the immigration
consumption of coal will naturally In
crease.
The agricultural districts Of Canada
have now become so we'll known
throughout the world, and the vacant
area of splendid land is still so great
that it may be expected that the num-
bers mentioned will increase from
year to year, and it will not be many
years before the immigration figures
will reach the million mark.
1t may be asked what Is there to
warrant this large immigration? With
millions OF acres of land, capable of
producing twenty-five to forty bushels
of wheat to the acre; or. II in oats.
from forty to ninety. and even as high
as hundred bushels per acre, or the
same splendid yields of fax or bar
ley, there is ample inducement to at
tract these hundreds of thousands who
are filling the present agricultural set
Elements and pushing forward into the
newer settlements year by year, and
leave room still for the hundreds of
thousands who will follow. There re-
mains not only the agricultural wealth
of the country. but there are also the
social advantages, the home making
privileges, apart altogether from the
financial opportunities, there Is the life
and the energy born from the knowl-
edge that the settler is more thaM a
unit in the upbuilding, In the making
of country that will soon rank
amongst the first in the nations of
the world. There Is no desire on the
part Of the writer to dwell upon the
success that has followed the Ameri-
can settler in the Provinces of Mani
toba, Saskatchewan and Alberta and
the coast Province of British Colum-
bia, or to speak Of the thousands of in
dividuals whose hundreds of dollars
have made them thousands, but atten-
tion must be paid to the fact that these
people have done well. They are fol-
lowed by their families and their
friends, who also are doing well.
Where, few years ago, seemingly
only months ago, there was nothing
but the open prairie, or If we speak of
the more central portions of these
provinces, the park districts, there are
today well titled and cultivated farms,
large farms, too, and the herds of cat
tie. Cities and towns are the result Of
