SMALL BLAZE CALLS
FIRE DEPARTMENT

The fire department was called out
at 4:30 o'clock this morning to ex-
tinguish threatened conaagration
at the rear of the premises occupied
by Charles Johnson, corner Fourth
street and Rudd avenue. blazing
fence, ignited from hot ashes dumped
in the street in violation OF the city
ordinances, was the cause of the trou-
BILE. The fire, which was making rapid
headway when discovered, was put
out by the use of chemical apparatus.
The fence alluded to connected with
a large barn owned by John Meredith
and had the fire not been reported
when it was it is probable that a
heavy loss would have been sustain
ed. In the arm were two horses, a
large quantity of feed and several We
hicles. The Daily Record is asked
by Captain Barber of the fire depart
ment and City Marshal C. F. Skinner
to state that the ordinance against
leys will hereafter be strictly enforc-
ed and that those who have not got
ash pits must provide themselves
with them at once. The dumping of
hot ashes on the ground anywhere is
a menace during dry weather as they
are liable TO be kindled into a blaze
by the wind and destroy valuable
property. The only safeguard against
trouble from this source is a brick,
concrete or iron ashpit and such a
receptacle for ashes is required by
the ordinances. The public is urged
to be very careful about the disposi-
ton of ashes.

SIR The publication yesterday and

der OF which | have been adtudged

II is indeed true that under the Con-
stitution of this state before a man con-
viCted of a capital offence can be actu-
ally put to death 1t is his right 10 have
all the proceedings through which his
conviction was secured reviewed by an
independo mt and impartial mind occupy
ing the Executive chair, Even though
the Judgment has been affirmed by every
branch of the judicial department IL
still remains the duty of the Executive to
decided whether, considering the charac-
ter of the witnesses who testified on
the trial against him. the manner OF
conducting it. or for any reason what
ever the sentence pronounced against
him shall be executed, modified or en-
tirrly RENTED.
But the degree To which | can enjoy
this right which the Constitution un-
dertakes TO bestow on me s so well
