Editor FL Paso Herald
IN your issue of Thursday, Novem-

Carolina. 1 quite agree with you in
every Utterance against governor
Blease, as he has proved a menace to
his people and impeded the progress Of
his state. The people of South Caro-
lima have repudiated his actions and
it is a benediction that such a man is
soon to be retired from office
In this same article you referred to
the pardonlng record Of governor BOD
Taylor, of Tennessee. Your Slur was
untenable, uncalled for, and records
will refute your statement, namely,
THAT Bob Taylor boosted that he had
given one pardon for each day OF his
term as governor"
The people of Tennessee were hon
ored by having Bob Taylor as governor
of the Volunteer state three or four
times, the term of office being two
years. I know it to be a fact that he
never made such a record as you
claim. To mention governor Blease's
name in connection with the fair and
unpOlluted name of Bob Taylor. The
Apostle Of Sunshine" is convincing
that you know little of the latter or Of
his record
It is true he pardoned many, but in
all instances he was justified. His Op-
ponents made capital of this, but what
governor is so hard hearted he would
not pardon a man who was within the
threshold of death, caused by Confine-
ment within prison walls. Is be to be
bemeaned for pardOning a cripple,
when the misfortune overlook the
convict while working in the state
mines?
Governor Taylor never pardoned a
man in order to promote his political
interest, for the recodrs viii show that
