condition placed in the pardon court
battle to determine whether con
ditional pardon will stand would
doubtless have resulted if the jury in
Meridian declares Smith to be sane
1t has been the custom of practically
every governor of the state to at times
grant pardons based on specific con.
ditions, and in some instances, as in
the case of Vicksburg man recently.
these conditions have been enforced,
and pardoned men taken back to the
penitentiary for having violated them.
Assistant Attorney General Geo. H.
Ethridge holds that a governor of
Mississippi has the authority to i'm.
pose conditions. The Mississippi sta
statut have nothing whatever to say
on the subject. however. In a recent
decision the Florida supreme court
held that although the constitution
was silent on the point a governor
could exercise such authority.
/, Relatives of Laurent, the dead man,
1t is said, were preparing to institute
a fight, in case Smith was released,
to have the condition of the first par
don imposed, lbut now that cannot be
done as the second document imposes
no condition except that he be dis
if found to be sane.
When Smith was pardoned by Gov.
Brewer, DR.. ]. M. Buchanan, at the
head of the East Mississippi Insane
Hospital in Meridian, stated that the
prisoner was hopelessly insane. Gov.
Brewer takes the position that if
Smith is sane he should not be in a
and if insane he should re-
main there. The daughter of Smith.
now Mrs. Saunders Wilbourne, of
Winona, interviewed for her father,
and when the governor granted his
executive clemency he said at the
time he wanted to help remove what
might be a stigma from the family
name before the girl married.

is now completing arrangements for
the establishment of branch at Wes-

This arrangement will enable the

to bring in their milk at such an early
hour as to enable them to ship on
the early train to New Orleans to get

their product can be handled to advan-

made on the handsome brick plant of

Jackson, Miss, Sept. 24-The oldest

was pardoned by Gov Brewer late
yesterday afternoon, when the chief
executive affixed his signature that
gave James B. Hall his freedom.
Hall, who was farmer, was sent
up from Lafayette county ten years
ago to serve life term for criminal
assault. He has been at the Rankin
state farm since sentence was passed
upon him, making model prisoner.
The man is growing old, he is now
6S years of age, and the governor be-
lieves that he should be allowed his
freedom.

SMITH TO BE RELEASED.

Jackson, Miss, Sept. 24.-If Charles
R. Smith, whose sanity is to be deter.
mined in a habeas corpus trial now
underway in Meridian, is declared
sane by competent and proper au-
thority" no fight can be instituted to
have him again sent to the penitenti.
ary as it develops that Gov. Brewer
on September 7 issued document re-
moving tie condition of the first par
don granted to Smith, that he remain
the balance of his natural life in the
insane hospital, breach of it to put
into full force the urscrved part of his
life sentence for the murder 70 r. A.

condition the document reads as fol.

press condition that Charles r. Smith
shall remain in the insane hospital Of
Mississippi during his natural life, he
now being confined therein, or until
he shall be adjudged sane and dis
charged by competent and proper au-

The wording of the condition in the
first pardon, dated October 10, 1914, is
as follows:
This pardon is granted on the ex-

BURGLAR TOOK SAFE.

Vast Point, Miss, Sept. 24.-Burg-
lars entered the suburban store of J..
A. Miller a few nights ago and carried
his safe away. The safe was carried
several miles in a buggy to Chooka
tonkchie creek, where it was forced
open and $35 in money taken out. The
safe was then thrown into the creek.
A young man of this city was sus-
pected of the crime, but as there was
no evidence, the police could do moth
ing. Yesterday the suspected man
was approached by policeman, and
after little questioning, broke down
and confessed everything, duplicating
two other men. All three are now in
Jail awaiting trial.
There has been number of rob
berries in West Point and vicinity
lately, and 1t is thought that these
men can account for some of them.

COTTON SEED SOLD.

Jackson, Miss, Sept. 24.-The Board
of Trustees of the Mississippi peniten-
tiary yesterday sold twenty cars OF
cotton seed. OF this amount IL cars
brought s263O per ton while 8 cars
sold for $26.70. This is said to be
about the best price paid for seed
this season and one that is pleasant
surprise to trustees who had not ex.
pected to get more than s25 per ton.
The seed was taken by the South.
land Cotton Oil Company through its
manager, Harris Barksdale, and was
sold on cars at Parchman. 1t is
stated that the reason the state is able
to get such a satisfactory price for
its seed is that they are marketed in
quantities and are always of a high
grade. ~v--~
Prison trustees state that none of
the states cotton will be offered for
sale for several days. 1t is expected
that when placed on the market this
will bring banner price.
