North into the Carolinas and Vir-
ginia. In the course of time he locat-
ed in Danville, where he was Joined
by his wife. Later he was elected to
the police force, and finally became
chief of police. His family in the
meantime had increased from two to
ten, the youngest being twins. He
led a circumspect life during all of
these years, and had come to be re-
garded as an exemplary citizen.
There had never been any intimation
that his past was under a cloud. He
was known in Danville under the
name of Morris.
Two years x a s~harp-eyed little
man dropped off the train at Dan
vile. In his possession were requisi-
ton papers from the governor of
Georgia upon the governor of Nir-
ginia, and formally honored by the
latter, for the arrest of Stripping,
alias Morris, escaped murderer.
The governor has given no intima
ton of what he will do with the petit
ton. During his first term Governor
Brown refused, after an exhaustive
hearing, to pardon Stripping. Will the
governor listen to this insistent plea
from the heart of a man for the love
of a girl? Only the governor can
know.

CUPID SEEKS PARDON FOR
MODERN JEAN VALJEAN
Ex-PoIice Chiefs Daughters
Suitor Entreats Governor.

SAVANNAH, Ga. Oct. 2S.-Gov-
ernor Joseph Fl. Brown has again
been pe.;tioned to pardon Thomas
Edgar Stripping, alias Morris. con-
victed, escaped and ~recaptured MUIR
derer, one-time chief OF police of
Danville, Va, and now confined in
the State penitentiary for life in ex-
piation OF his crime.
This time the petition comes not in
the form of a voluminous roll, backed
by Scores of signatures and legal
pleas. This last petition is signed by
man only, and the only plea that
accompanies 1t is the one invoked by
the little winged god of love.
E. r. Youngblood, of Tallulah Falls,
80 years of ago, implores the governor
to pardon Stripping, not alone for
Stripling's sake and the happiness of
his family, but in order that he

The story of Stripping is that of a

Candidate Charles A. Nutting adj
dressed the employees of the Croker

day. Mr.. Townsend. in brief, said:
"George Perkins has been the chief
angel for Colonel Roosevelt. He only
paid two million dollars for a New
York newspaper two years ago and
testified that he figured himself a
'piker' because he only contributed
800, 600 to the Roosevelt campaign
In 1904, the congressman said, the
contribution of Mr.. Perkins was
x4s, 900, and that was from the insur-
ance funds. IF you would take 8 per
cont. interest on that 800, 900, 1t would
keep five families comfortably" he
continued. "As for Hiram Johnson.
his father has disowned him for
his political attitude"
Mr.. Nutting made a strong plea for
tho election of both congressman, the
Assembly ticket and for Joseph Nc
Donough, the candidate for county
ciery. He referred to the excellent
record of the Democratic Assembly in
1911, and the poor n of the Repub-
iioan Legislature Of 1912.
Mr.. Mccoy spoke as follows:
"English manufacturers are much
more likely to contribute to Repub-
iican campaign funds than to Demo-

The partly completed counterfeit

dence against him, r composed of a
centre of lead composition and COW
cred on one side by silver foil, Ibear-
ing the design of the reverse of good

pleted no coins, but obviously would
have to v the other side of the
coin with. a similar silver foil sur
face. It was suggested that he had
not yet solved the problem of making
a perfect junction between the two
coverings. II successfully completed
the coins might be a very dangerous
counterfeit.
MacFarland, as far as is known,
made no attempt to pass bad money
in the ne~ighborhood. He paid his
landlord the advance, rent in bills and
paid his laundryman in bills. These
were the only expenditures which
have been checked up.
MacFarland was very bold about
his operations The landlord saw
coins and metals lying about > the
room two days after he took the
room, but did not attach Importance
to the fact. Whenever MacFarland
went out he left his satchel tied with
string in such a way that it could not
be opened without his knowing 1t.
The man kept to himself ana asso-
ciated with no one in the house. He
is a stranger to the landlord.

which passed later. Rittman's chest
was crushed in and his skull was

Cattle RustIinq Must Stop.

Grand Junction.-The failure to Sc
cure a conviction in either of two
cattle rustling cases tried early last
fall, in which the Mesa County Stock
mems Association employed skilled
detectives, and the increasing loss to
cattlemen from thieves has caused the
executive board of the organization
to take steps toward protection which
are as drastic as those in vogue in
western Colorado before there were
courts. On each range cowboy who
is known to be a dead shot will be
placed. He will have the safety of
the herds in his hand and will patrol
his territory as a policeman does his
beat. He will be paid by the stock
men, but will have commission
from the sheriff. He is under orders
from his employers to shoot on sight
any cattle thief whom he catches sepa-
rating cattle from the herds, and the
stockmen have received assurances
from the district attorney that efforts
to prevent rustling will not be inter.
fered with.

NEW LEASING
PLAN PROPOSED
CONSERVATION OF NATURAL
RESOURCES OF THE WEST
PROVIDED FOR.
TAYLOR BILL FAVORABLE

THoRlZED TO EXTEND TIME
ON DESERT ENTRIES.
western Newspaper Union News Service.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington.-Th first meeting of
the Senate public lands committee,
under the chairmanship of Senator
Smoot of Utah, was devoted to a dis
cussion OF a general land leasing plan
submitted by Senator Newlands of
Nevada, the ranking Democratic
member of the committee.
Senator Newlands' plan is similar
to that of Clifford Pinchot and Sena-
tor La Toilette, and provides for con-
servation of natural resources of the
West by proposing to retain all land
E, containing coal, oil, iron, phosphates
and all water power in the ownership
of the federal government and provid-
ing for leasing these lands under
conditions which Senator Newlands
says will at once prevent monopol-
istic control and yet provide for their
development at fair prices to consum-
ers.'
Newlands' plan provides that sew
enty-five per cent. of the revenue
| from the leased lands shall be paid
to the state where the lands are To-
Gated. The committee took no action
on the Newlands plan and it will be
| discussed further at the next meeting
of the committee. 1t is believed the
| Democratic members of the commit
tee will vote to adopt the Newlands
plan, but unless it receives some Re-
publican support it will not be
adopted.
Senator Guggenheim obtained au-
thority from the public lands commit
| tee, of which he is a member, to re-
port favorably the Taylor bill, watch
has passed the House, authorizing the
| secretary of the interior to grant fur
ther extension of time within which
| to make proof on desert land entries
| in Weld and Larimer counties.
The bill provides that any desert
land entryman in the counties named
may be granted a further extension
| of time of not more than three years
in which to make final proof provided
he shall show by his corroborated af-
fidaVit that because of unavoidable
delay in the construction of irriga-
ton works intended to convey water
to the land embraced in his entry, he
is, without fault on his part, unable
to make proof of the reclamation and
cultivation of his entry within the
time required by law.
Harry E. Wadsworth, superinten-
dent of the Wind River Indian School
Wyoming, was promoted by the Com
missioner of Indian affairs to the SUI
perintendency of the Chemawa Indian
School at Salem, Oregon. The Chem
ava school is one of the largest in the
Indian service and carries salary of
$500 year more than the Wind
River school. The vacancy caused by
Wadsworths promotion will be filled
by the selection of civil service ELI
| gible.
Senator Warren was notified by the
| Commissioner of the General Land
| Office that 1929 acres of land under
the Carey act project of the Sahara
Ditch Company has been approved for
patent. The lands form part Of the
Sahara Ditch Company project in
Johnson county, Wyoming.
