NINE ALLEGED PRICE
OF PATRICK PARDON

NEW YORK, Nov. 22.-According to
story published in a New York
newspaper today the mysterious rea-
son for the sudden pardon Of Albert

Marsh Rice. has been revealed.
According to a sworn statement by
George c. Goodrich. formerly an as

In a nutshell, here is Goodrich's yer
sion of why Patrick was pardoned.
From 1900 to 1912 Millikin had tried
TO secure q new trial for Patrick. lie
had spent q fortune in vain. The
case has been carried six times to
the court of appeals and once to the
United States Supreme Court. Patrick
nad been found guilty of forging
$50. 600 in checks and Of killing Rice

only path To freedom was a pardon.
Four governors had refused the par
don.
Millikin held property which the firm
Of Walker g. Brothers. high class min
Ing bankers Of wall Street, needed to
complete the mining merger. but MIL
likin would not sell.
All attempts to persuade him failed.
Even William Nelson Cromwell tried
With no success 10 win him over. Good
gich. In his sworn statement, says he
brought Millikin and Walker Brothers
together. and then Millikin learned that
the then Governor Dix was closely al
led with the mining firm. Goodrich
says a pardon was promised for Pat
rick as the price of the consent of Mil
Iikin TO the merger.
The pardon was issued Thanksgiving
Day, in 1912. Three days later Miiikin
agreed 10 the merger. But before this
Nas done the price OF some OF the min
ing stock involved jumped from G2 TO
10.

ming made by the Mishawaka promot-
ers is on a more substantial basis than
those Of the past.
Racing men have given assurances
when this subject has been previously
preached that a track between South
Bend and Mishawaka would have an
advantageous location from their point
OF view on account of the superior
character Of its shipping facilities and
that the territory would be a welcome
addition TO one of their circuits. 1t
would be convenient Of access from all
directions for the shipment of horses.
The same applies to the convenience
Of the public, which by way of the
railroads and trolley lines centering
in the two cities could be carried to
and from the grounds conveniently
miles around would be tributary to
race meetings and fairs held at the
proposed location.
Not less important in a sense is the
holding OF agricultural fairs. Many
years have passed since one has been
held here. The farmers of the ST.
Joseph valley are in better position to
make agricultural fairs interesting.
instructive and successful than fifteen
or twenty years ago Great progress
in the cultivation Of the soil has been
made in recent years in the production
of grains and fruits and in the raising
Of stock. The farmers would eager
ly welcome a return OF annual fairs
conducted on modern lines and made
profitable to all who attend.
The enterprise of Mishawaka citi-
zens in taking up the matter of race
meetings and fairs should receive the
Encouragement it merits and given
whatever financial aid is necessary to
pUt the organization on its feet. There
is no reason why race meetings here
should not attract as large attendance
from the outside as at Grand Rapids
and Kalamazoo. which have success
full races every year. We have the
location, the facilities and the local
population TO make such meetings a
big success.
Go 10 it. The opportunity is there.

BE SLOW TO BELIEVE.

The passions of war, at best. pro-
duce many cruelties. But we advise
our readers TO be slow TO believe a
tenth part of the charges and counter
charges that have been or will be
made Of atrocities in the wars wake.
Not all who make these charges are
wilful slanderers. but their vision is
disturbed.
A little while ago, for example. we
were reading daily reports of how
brutally German officials and soldiers
were treating American tourists
caught in the war tide.
But il turns out that not only we're
these tales false but that the reverse
was true-praeticaliy every American
returning from Germany tells Of the
exceptional courtesy and kindness
with which Americans were treated
there.
Except for the few days at the wars
beginning when every German official
had his hands full with getting the
troops started, the consideration
shown for Americans in Germany
was not only all that we could ask.
but actually went beyond what might
reasonably have been expected The
contrast between the first reports and
the confirmed truth has made a very
warm feeling in this country for the
German people.
So now. when We read tales OF alleg-
ed German brutalism in the wake Of
the armys march. we accept them
not
Since IL is chiefly OF the Germans
that these atrocity tales are now be-
ing told. we needn't speak OF the 9th
er armies except 10 suggest equal
caution in believing III.
