.FORDYCE MAN TO
 ERECT FLOUR MILLS
A. E. Acruman Agrees to Build Mills
 If Farmers Will Grow Wheat.

Fordyce, Oct. 30.-A general move ment has been launched in South Ar kansas among the planters to grow less cotton and more wheat. Meet ings of the leading planters of Cal houn, Dallas and Cleveland counties recently held, passed resolutions say ing that they would cut the acreage Hampton and Fordyce are already un- der construction. MT. Acruman has at least 40 per cent.
 In several of the counties the Farm ers' union also adopted resolutions to reduce the cotton acreage at least 40 per cent. It seems that the general sentiment among the planters is in hearty sympathy with the resolutions and it is believed that there will be no trouble in persuading the farmers to grow more wheat and oats.
 A. B. Acruman, one of the oldest merchants and most experienced planters in the state, and whose home is in this city, has agreed to erect flour mills for the convenience of the farmers who grow wheat. Mills at made several addresses recently ex- blaming the simple way in which they can grow wheat to an advantage. Orders for more than 5000 bushels of seed wheat have already been plac- ed with concerns that have promised market prices for the flour made by the farmers of South Arkansas. The slogan of this prosperous section is: "Less cotton-more wheat"

l apply for pardons. He discovered that througn ignorance of the points
 Of law and evidence to be considered
 CT through inability to employ a com fetent attorney deserving prisone"S often lost their chances of obtaining pardon. When application is made for a pardon all the rosy facts ami circumst anees that can be arrayed on the side of the convict should be included i'll the sam document. For, after being refused a first time. ] second application is likely to meet with prejudice, an adverse impression Of the case remaining in the mind f the pardon from reading of Thc case as initia!ly presented
 So 10 overcome this chance of in justice, MT. Finch drew up form which jurists say is a masterpiece of silent cross examination II makes tine prisoner, applying for the pardon, cudgel his brain to fill in the blanks.
 For instance there sa section in the form reading: "State reasons why pardon should be granted" and then a sub-sentcnce reading: "Give each reason spcrately." This latter sen tence is desi ignedlo make the pris- oner think out and analyze for him self why he should 6c pardoned
 The form includes a section for the signatures of persons endorsing the applicants petition for apardon. Not content with seeing the sigma lures of these citizens, the pardon at torney wants to know why these per sons endorse the application. that is, why they think the man should be pardcned Also they must give their occupations, because occupations are. in themselves, character witnesses.
 The prejudice of district attorneys is something tho pardon attorney has to contend with. When a district at torney, particularly young and en-
 thuslastic district attorney gets a,
 man in jail for crime, he usually
 wants 10 keep him there. His job is
 70 keep people who it is alleged an noy or endanger ether people caged up. Wherefore, he often opposes the granting of pardons. The pardon at torney must take everything advanc- ed by these officers at it's true value. The recommendation of the pardon attorney is forwarded to tine president
 who usually grants it, for he consid-
 CTS that the attorney has sifted the case thoroughly and has recommend
 ed accordingly. The president does
 not always grant the pardons, how
 ever, as many disappointed zappli- cant can testify.

ATTORNEY
 OFFICE OPERATIVE Few Persons, Aside From Lawyers and Judges,
 Aware It's Exists. ATTORNEY PARDONs
James \ Fish Has Charge of This De- partment of Justice and Through Him Pardons Are Secured for All
 COnyicts Who Merit CIemency.

Washington, Oct. 31.-Few person < in the United States. except lawyers, judges and prisoners know of the eX- istence of the office of Pardon At torney. The general public occasion ally hears of the president granting pardons to prisoners as, for instance when such distinguished men as Charles w. Morse or Julian Flaw thorne are the prisoners pardoned, but that the United States govern ment maintains an officer whose en tire time is devoted to pardons is net generally known.
 Yet not a fedeAl prisoner in any penitentiary in the country can he pardoned without his case first pass ing through the hands of this pardon attorney. His office is in the build ing of the department of justice at Washington and comes under the di- rect supervision of the attorney gen. eral of the United States.
 Children, particularly smalY boys, look upon policemen as the personifi cation of oppression as the personi- fication of the theory that might is right. So that when these children grow to manhood they harbor an ir- stinctive dislike for police officers The most conscientious citizen willbe piquel if he is addressed sharply by { policeman. For these reasons many have come to regard the legal mach inery of the government as dedicated to getting offenders into jails. Where fore, it seems paradoxical to realize that the legal machinery of the gov ernment also has good-sized cog dedicated entirely to getting prison CTS out of all.
