JUDGE MFEKS SCORfS
GOVERNOR DONAGREY

Mammoth Spring, Oct. Z, 1919
Star Herald, Pooahontas, Ark.
Dear Blnukensbip;
On last week Governor Donaghcy
hardened one Alec Harris, who was
sent to the penilentiary from the
Randolph court last January on ms
plea Of guilty Go thc oIeuse Of
Grand larceny after De had been in
5irtea for tie two oiIcuscs Of bur
glay and grand larceny. It will
he remembered by many citizens
h.tbe Is the same Alec Harris,
who made a felonious assault IN the
court room, while court was in
scssiod the day before his sentence,
ON one Joe johnson, and who after
his sentence told the sheriff there
that he intended to kill man for
every wear he had to remain m pris'
Oh. Other persons there, no doubt,
Will remember some Of his nefarious
oondnet while he was in jail there
The published excuse of the Gov
erpor for his action in granting the
pardon was that he had been in
formed that Harris had been promis
ed only one year il he would plead
guilty and that alter he had entered
his plea OF guilty the court gave
him Eve years and in defense of his
action in granting the pardon he
sends me copy of one of the peti'
,iOns purportiug to have been sign
ed by thirteen citizens of Middle
brook m which they aflix their sig
uature TO a statement to the effect
TIA, "Harris had not been treated
night, that he was promised one
war IL he would plead guilty.
Tha, he did SO and they gave him
Eve years." and that for this reason
and the further fact that older per-
sODs sswere leading the way" and
"tbai they still run Free" This
seems TO be their desire 20 have him
90 free. The excuse offered by the
Governor which is covered by a
copy Of the petition that ! enclose
Won which he has sent me is not
only 4 gross Misrepresentation Of
Mr.. Elmore aud myself but does
not have one modicum of truth Tor
its foundation. ! know some oil
the thirteen men whose names are
on this petition and know them to
be men who want the law upheld
much less to have it treated with
contempt and if they did sign such
statements have no way of account
ing for their strange action unless
they we're mlsled or signed it with
out reading the statement. Now
As those men have gone on record
in stating that "there were older
parties in with him leading the way
and they still run free," it is their
duty to be there at the next term oil
tbe Randolph court and give to the
grand jury the benefit of the
knowledge they publish to the
world to get this fellow pardoned

"A few years later, or in 1870.
when Miss Lajeunesse was nineteen
years of age. her friends in Albany
received a letter from her stating
that she had appeared in the opera Of
'Somnambuls' at Messina and had
won a great success; and she added
that her instructor had told her that
she ought to take stage name and
when she asked him what name he
would recommend he told her Albani
that being the name Of an Italian
family which had always taken great
interest in music. Therenuon she re-
piled that she would be the more
ready to take that name since it
closely resembled the name Of the
city whose people had made il possi-
