HORTlCULTURlSTs TO MEET
important Session Will Be Held in
 Fort Smitf-State Aid Wanted.

Western Newspaper Union News Service
 Fort Smith-One of the most nota- ble gatherings of horticulturists that has ever taken place in the southwest will be held in Fort Smith the middle of next January, when the Arkansas Horticultural Association holds it's an nual convention here Every effort has been made to make this years affair the banner event in the long and useful career of the association
 The association expects to create sufficient interest at the meeting here to have weight on the legislat5re to grant the appeals for assistance in inn proving horticultural conditions in Arkansas by appropriating funds to carry on educational work and to prosecute or enforce laws the asso- citation will ask the lawmakers to adopt.
 The society chiefly prefers the en- actment of a law making it compulsory for orchardists to stamp out the dead ly San Jose scale, which is making mighty inroads in the vast apple re- zion of the state. Laws for nursery inspection, placing a quarantine on diseased nursery stock shipped into the state from foreign markets, the employment of inspectors and ex- penses to defray the cost of carrying on an elaborate educational program are among it's other aims.

 Hon. Sam M. Taylor of Pine Bluff, Ark, who was MT.

 NEWS AND NOTES Action of Governor in Pardoning 36O Convicts Brings State
 Into LimeIight.
BLEASE SENDS APPROVAL
Some of Freed Prisoners Were Con- victed of Serious Crimes-Gov-
 ernor Severely Criticised.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
 Little Rock.-Arkansas and it's gov ernor have been in the limelight ever since the action of Gov. Donaghey in pardoning the 360 convicts Many have severly criticised the chief ex- ecutive while others have commended his actions.
 When Governor Donaghey pardoned the convicts he gave as his reason the continued abuse of the prisoners by contractors and others who were work ing them, also he claimed Aat many sentences were long and unjust in pro portion to the crime committed
 One of Mr. Donaghey's strongest critics was Gov-Elect Joe T. Robinson who questioned the motive of MT. Donaghey in freeing the prisoners.
 One of the first to congratulate the governor on his action was Governor Blease of South Carolina. MT. Blease has quite a record himself in the line of issuing pardons but he said that Arkansas governor put him 'in the shade" In an interview Mir. Blease said that the people of South Carolina might expect similar action if cer- tain reforms were not made in that state.
 The question of retarding the par doning power of the governor has again been revived and being discuss ed and many have expressed the opin- ion that this question should be taken up by the next legislature and some action taken. Some of the members of the legislature have expressed them selves as interested in this matter and that they would take an active part when the matter was brought before the legislature.
 Of the total number pardoned 43 had been convicted of murder or man. slaughter, I'll had been convicted of grand larceny, had been convicted of assault to rape, had been convict ed of robbery, 19 were under sentence for forgery and uttering a forged in strument; 32 had been convicted of burglary and grand larceny, 26 were under conviction for assault to kill, 5 had been convicted of false pretense,
 were under sentence for perjury, 2 had been convicted of incest and one each were serving sentences under convictions for embezzlement, kidnap- ing, disposing of mortgaged property, removing mortgaged property hog stealing, assault to rob and bigamy.
