Many Apply-Few Are Granted.


Special to Independent.
Little Rock, Aug. 22.-Appli-
cations and petitions for par
dons are not rolling out very
rapidly.
Gov. Hays is endeavoring to
strike a happy medium. He
does not aspire to be known as
a great pardoner, neither does
he wish to be known as a gov
ernor who will grant no pardons
at all. 1t is his purpose to give
every individual case a full con-
sideration as it comes up.
Il think all will agree with
me-" said he, that the pardon
ing power has been greatly
abused in Arkansas. My long
experience on the bench has
taught me that there are very
few really innocent men ever
convicted, while there are I'M
doubtedly great many that go
unwhipped of justice. But ev-
cry case presented to me for
clemency will be considered on
it's merits"

Let Us DO What Missouri Has
Done,

Where is there good roads
believer who does not warm to
the news of what Missouri has
done upon her good roads days?
The governor of the state, her
business men and farmers clos
ed their Offices, stores and
shops, donned their working
clothes and with picks, shoVels,
graders and other road machin-
cry went into the highways and
cross roads and labored for the
cause, which they recognize as
essential to the development Of
their state ind the communities
in which they live.
The news dispatches further
tell us that good roads zeal
was not confined to the men of
Missouri, but to the women Of
the state as well, who cooked
dinners and furnished the noon
day meals of this army of arous-
ed workers.
What Missouri has done, we
too can do. Governor Hays has
set apart two days and urged
upon the citizens of our state
the Importance of this work.
We are not following another
state merely, but joining hands
in a nationwide movement to
better our highways.
With greater needs of road
work the demand should be
more imperative and our zeal
correspondingly greater. Let us
not be content to follow, but
rather aim to eclipse the efforts
of other states. And to do so,
the movement must be organic
ed, not only in each county, but
every township and community.
We become aroused in primar-
les and political issues, where
little is involved beyond the
personal triumph and success of
our man over perhaps an equal
ly capable opponent, and in this
greater fight for better roads,
easier, quicker and more eco
nomical transportation of our
products, that means the saw
ing of millions to the wealth pro-
ducers Of this country, let us
recognize the Importance of the
issue and what good roads will
do for Newport and Jackson
county, and give to it's support
our interest, our zeal, our phys
ical labor and means, that are
requisite to the success of these
two days in turning Arkansas
from passable roads to improv-
ed highways.

SEPTEMBER 3 AND d
GOOD ROADS DAYS
President Phillips of Jackson
County Good Roads Asso-
citation Urges Compliance
With Proclamation.

Newport, Ark, Aug. %, 1913.
Editor of Independent, City.
Dear Sir:
have received the following
proclamation from Governor
Geo. w. Hays, requesting that |
have it published, as follows:
PROCLAMATION.
WHEREAS, there is no mat
ter of a greater public or private
interest than the development
of a system of good roads
throughout the state, and
WHEREAS, there has been
notable awakening of interest
everywhere manifested in the
numerous mass meetings, in the
expressions Of the Press, and in
the enactments of the recent
Legislatures, oil Of which will
go to prove that there is a grow
ing realization Of the vital i'm
portance of public highways of
the highest class ready to be
crystaliZed into a statewide con-
certed effort at Road Improve
ment, and
WHEREAS, this is a matter de-
serving not only the attention of
farmers and business men, who
have need for the roads, but also
of the Chief Executive of the
State, who is charged indirectly
with it's welfare, and
WHEREAS, no better method
occurs to me for furthering the
cause of good roads than the
setting apart of a day or days to
be dedicated to the study, dis
cussion and practical advance
ment of good roads.
NOW THEREFORE, I, Geo.
w. Hays, Governor of the State
of Arkansas, do hereby set
apart and designate the 3rd and
4th days Of September, A. D.,
1918, being the first Wednesday
and Thursday of said month, as
Good Roads Days, at which time
and on which days all persons
interested in this cause, are re-
quested to contribute in whatev-
er manner may seem most APP
propriate for the advancement
of good roads, by holding Insti-
tutes, Public Meetings, Road
Workings, or in any other man
ner best suited to each respec-
tive locality.
IN TESTIMONY WHEREOF,
| have hereunto set my hand
and caused to be affixed the
great seal of the State this 18th
day of August, 1918.
Geo. w. Hays, Governor.
| do most earnestly request
the citizens of Jackson County
that they take an interest in
complying with the request of
Governor Hays by coming to-
gether on the days designated
in their various townships and
do something toward the accom-
plishment of the purpose for
which the proclamation is is
sued. The necessity for good
roads cannot be estimated, and
each citizen ought to bestir him.
self and do something that will
make the roads better in this
county. Let it not be said that
the citizens of Jackson County
are behind the other counties in
the state in this very necessary
improvement.

Twenty Brides on Liner;
All Married Together

NEW YORK. May 6-Twenty blush
ing brides ran down the gangplank of
the steamship California into the arms
of twenty bridegrooms when the liner
dookeG here. Gladness reigned until
the immigration authorities found that
eight of the girls did not have papers
to prove their identity, and told them
they could not remain unless they were
married first at Ellis Island, the i'm
migration detention station. When the
ether twelve heard this they said they
would all stand together. and the
twenty couples left for the island to
find a clergyman.
The prospective brides came from
Scotland and ireland, and the immigra-

NICHOLAS MAY LOSE

Surrender of Scutari by King
to Powers Disapproved by
His CountTymen.

LONDON. May 6.-The decision Of
King Nicholas to surrender Scutari may
cost him the throne of Montenegro. ac-
cording to dispatches today from Ger
MANY. The aged Kings submission to
the powers is not approved by the Mon
teneprins. and rather than face their
condemnation, it is said. King Nicholas
may abdicate.
At the time that Servia and Montene-
gro were together before Scutari. and
the international fleet blockaded Anti
vari. King Nicholas announced that IL
he were forced to lift the siege of Sou
tari he would abdicate in favor of King
Peter of Servia and unite the two king
doms.
Since that time co"lness has devel-
oped between the two states, and 1t is
believed that IL King Nicholas should
leave the throne he would abdicate in
favor of his son. Crown Prince Danilo.

The movement for a human life con-

Medical Association, Independent of the

ment The plans for this conference are
only IN the formative stage, but the
general idea is that the President should
assemble the most eminent scientists OF
the country at a conference in WASH
ington next fall, at which the conserva-
ton of human life and public health
should be discussed from all angles.
The President was urged to lend his
influence to the movement for a House
Committee on Public Health. because
the physicians feel there should he a
committee which could initiate legisla-
tion. There is a Senate Committee on
Public Health, but many matters OF
legislation affecting the public health
are of such a nature that they must be
initiated in the House, and there is no
committee with authority to so initiate

not be convicted of murder by the use
of his own admissions made while talk

fenced to life Imprisonment. was sent
back to the district court of Archuleta
