month to pass in many, many years
during which at least one or two pris

When Governor Bilbo took the oath
of office on January 18th he issued a
statement that pardon seekers might
IS well stay away from the executive
suite until after the legislative SEES
sion, at least. He further said that
only in instances of an extraordinary
character, where it was clear thai
justice had not been done, would h.
even consider a pardon petition. He
has made good the statement, for up
10 date the Governors pen has not
traced his name on a single dOcu

OUR CONGRESSIONAL
CANDIDATES.

The voters of Haywood county will
have an opportunity today of hearing
the two candidates for congress in
joint debate.
Hon. Finis ]. Garrett has held this
position for the past twelve years and
has made an enviable record at Wash
ington. During his stay there he has
been close student of national af-
fairs and has been recognized by the
president as one of the strong men in
the edmocratic party. He is man of
unusual ability and as a debater has
few equals in this state. His record is
an open book and if he has failed in
any respect as a representative, his
opponent will have every opportunity
of showing the people how and where
in he has failed.
Mr.. Senter, who is opposing Mr..
Garrett for the nomination, is a man
of strong character and ability and
we'll worthy of recognition. He, too,
has record as a public official open
to inspection. Like Mr.. Garrett, he
has many friends in Haywood county.
Today will furnish the voters of this
county splendid opportunity of COM
pairing the two gentlemen, their rec
ords and their ability as statesmen.
Hear them and be prepared to vote
for that one who will best represent
the interests of che ninth COMPRESSION
al district at Washington.
