ty for period Of twelve months from

tive vote by James. Mr.. Atkinson be-
ing president was not required to vote,
however, it is understood that he was
opposed to the demonstrator just now.

Petition for Pardon

TO His Excellency, Hon. Earl Brewer,
Governor. Jackson, Mississippi:
We, the undersigned citizens of Gre
nada county, respectfully petition your
Excellency that you pardon Sam Beck,
convicted at the January term of the
Circuit Court of this county in the year
1910. We are of the opinion that had
anyone taken any interest in the cause
of this negro that he never would have
been convicted. He submitted his case
to the Court and took sentence for
manslaughter. He killed the other
negro about his (Sam's) wife; the kill
ing occurred in Beck's yard and the
other negro was armed at the time.
Had the affair been between white
people we do not believe the courts
would ever have taken cognizance of
the case at all. UP to this time. the
time of the killing, Beck had been a
good, hardworking negro and had never
before been in trouble of any kind.
For quite a long while he has been one
of the "trusties" at Parchman farm,
and as we understand has made a we'll
behaved, obedient prisoner and we be-
lieve the ends of justice would be
served and that you would be rendering
a good service by giving him his liberty
and we most respectfully urge that you
do SO. Very respectfully,
R. V. Mason.
W. D. Singleton.

recognized authority on the tariff

demand all over the country. He was
for two terms Governor of his state.

with. He talks with vision and with
an understanding and is full of rich

About clock Sunday morning the
fire alarm sounded. Investigation soon
located where the fire was, which was
in the rear of the store of the Doak
Hardware Co. A barrel of hay was
ablaze and had evidently been on fire
since the night before and had not the
hay been partially wet serious conse-
quences would have followed, but as it
was, the barrel was rolled out of the
building and no serious damage done.
Mr.. Doak stated that he had been in
business for 50 years and that this was
the first time he had ever had fire
to break out in his store.

body and especially by the farmers and

themselves from the slavery of cotton.

THE OTHER SIDE.

There are two sides to very qUes-
t1on-sometimes even more. Those
who argue, no matter what the sub
ject of their contention, should al
ways concede as much.
In recent issues of Golfers, a hack
wrier discussed the Frank case. He
gave one side; indeed, he declared
there was only one viewpoint. Frank
was innocent, although court after
court has affirmed his guilt; Conley
is guilty; Georgia has committed an
awful crime. He tolerated no other
opinion. Bitterly criticising preiu-
dice, he displayed bias himself. In
Weighing against an alleged mob
spirit, he manifested the same
spirit himself, in an effort to brow
beat executive officers with an in
famed public sentiment.
In the latest issue of the Watson's
Magazine Thomas E. Watson takes
the other side. He argues Franks
guilt. His article is much like an
address to the jury, and it is splen-
d1dly wrought with Mr.. Watson's
lmpelIing logic, great legal ability,
keen perception and fine diction 1t
is a superb answer to the campaign
OF libel which has been directed
against Georgia on account of the
Frank case. 1t is tinctured, of course,
with characteristic Watsonian fire
and convictions.
If one wants to thoroughly under
stand the Frank case-to hear both
s1des-before arriving at a decision;
II one would do both Frank and the
courts equal justice, then ConnoIly's
article in Golfers and Watson's dis
cussion in his own magazine should
be read and studied. No one, par
t1cularly newspaper editors, here
and there about the country, should
form verdict, either one way or
