HON. JOHN A. RIGGS Candidate for Governor

pardon for Ruloff and Der ger, which was said in a statement given out to the press at the governors office to have been signed by the best and most influential citi- zens of Hot Springs, was in fact signed only by the two convicts themselves and their attorney. IT is attorney, George P. Wilmington, is a rart of the Pace-Davis politi- cal machine and pardon at torneys.
 ''This is a sample, if the public needs further ex- ample, of the methods and policies of the present state l,ouse administration, which is now desperately seeking to 2erpetuate itself in power.
 'This act will not set we'll with the best and influential people in Hot Springs or any ether section of the state, which is weary of high-handed lawlessness, bloodshed and other crimes.
 ''In my own newspaper, the Hot Springs New Era, 1 have denounced these two crooks in particular and have fought for years to build up a senti- raent for law enforcement as typified by the activities of such men as the late J. B. Wood and his son, Scott Wood, his fathers worthy successor on the circuit bench.
 "I take this occasion to pledge to the public at whose hands I now seek the office of governor, that when they have elected me to that office I will break up this favored gang of pardon attorneys and not turn loose upon the state a lot of desperadoes who have been convicted and sentenced to deserved long terms after court proceedings that have cost the taxpayers hundreds of dollars.-Arkansas Dem- ocrat, June 30.

 Ruloff. whites, alleged daring robbers, sentenced to 15 years in the State penitentiary, were oranted full and complete rardons by acting Governor Ken E. McFerrin, late Tues day afternoon. They had served two months and IF days of their sentences.
 The pardon was granted, according to the proclamation issued by the acting governor, after he had been presented with a petition signed by "the best and most influential citi- zens of Hot Springs, including number of court officials, who stated that they are fa- miliar with the facts and cir cumstances surrounding the trial and conviction of said James Berger and George Ruloff, and are of the opinion that they are the victims of a "frame-up," and that they should never have been con- victed."
 Despite this statement in the proclamation, Judge Scott Wood, before whom the men were tried, bitterly denounced the granting of the pardons, snd declared that "there can be no extenuating circumstan- ces in their case to warrant a pardon being granted" The judge went still further in his denunciations of the pardons and declared that "the gov ernor's office has simply de- moralized the courts here and has taken the edge off the law. The governors office has shown such kindness to the criminal elements that I am tempted to continue all crim- nal cases until Governor Rrough's term has expired"
 Berger and Rulof were con- vlcted in October, 1919, of fobbing W. c. Kramer and B. Elgh in a leading hotel in Hot Springs, getting as their loot about $8,O00. The two men, IL was said, followed their victims into their rooms in the hotel, and after having com mltted the crime, retreated rom the hotel, holding their pistols on guests who tried to stop them. They escaped in an automobile, but were captured s1ter an exciting chase. Af- ter they had been found guil- y Tn the Circuit Court their eases were appealed to the supreme Court, which upheld 'he verdict of the lower court. !. l have made in investiga- hl .lon this morning of what I uelleve to be one of the most snameful s travesties on justice ana law enforcement that has nappened recently in Arkan- Sa' sss' said John A.

Tokio. = An inquiry into. the situa- ton between Japan and the United States by persons in high position who follow the trend of events in mod ern Japan, but who may not be char aeterized as officials, has evolved the following as summarizing the situa- tion growing out of the proposed Cai- ifornia anti-Japanese measures:
 A genuine feeling of apprehension pervades in responsible Japanase quarters over the anti-Japanese move ments in the United States because exclusion movements against the Jap anese elsewhere, especially in the British dominions.
 Second, the Japanese contend that if the Japanese question in California IS left alone it will settle itself, be- cause when the present settlers, who cannot be naturaliZed, either die or return to Japana only their legal American posterity will remain, who in the course of generations will be assimulated.
 The Japanese contend that Ameri- cans are confusing present negotia- tions, which are aimed at perfecting the acquired rights of Japanese now in California with the general ques- tion of immigration, which is not in volved.
 The Japanese maintain that the voting of the California measure would add fuel to the anti-Japanese sentiment created by America, block ing what the Japanese call their legi- innate and necessary expansion in the Far East, especially in China and Siberia. This sentiment steadily is being engendered by anti-Ameriean articles in the Japanese newspapers.

OF WORRY
OLD AGE RECIPE
Increase of 10 to 20 Years
To Life Found Among
Cheerful People.
(By Herald Leased WireD

New York. Jan. S.-Don't worry
and be moderate in all things if
you want to live to be 20 or more.
This recipe Tor longevity was given
today by DR.. George l. Meylan. di-
rector of the Columbia University
gymnasium, after an investigation
of the modes of life of those who
live long and those who die pre-
maturely.
There is abundant evidence"
said DR.. Meylan, "to justify the be-
lief that the average duration of
life could be increased from ten to
twenty years by the general adop-
tion of the principle, moderation in
all things Deaths by infectious
disease or violence are excepted"
The characteristics of people over
20 years of age, DR.. Meylan finds,
are that they do not worry. have a
happy disposition and eat. dbink
and exercise and enjoy themselves
moderately.
Exactly the opposite conditions"
he says. ARE found almost invaria-
bly, in persons between 80 and 20
years who suffer from organic dis
ease of the nervous, digestive, ex-
cretory or circulatory systems and
premature senility. but the vicious
circle of unhygiepic living usually
includes over-stimulation, excesses
in pleasure, abuse of drugs and
worry"

STOCKS TONE
is IRREGULAR
Some Issues Up While
Others Show a De-.
cline.
BY BROADAN WALL.

New York, Jan. S-Great frregu-
larity was seen in the stock mar
ket today and the volume Of trad
ing was reduced. Final prices
were confusing. Some rather i'm
portant net advances were recorded
as we'll as declines. 1t could not
be said that the list as a whole had
any momentum in either direction.
It, acted as IL the propellers were
churning in an effort to get head
way toward higher prices. The
money rate of 6 per cent lent color
to this theory and the declaration
after the close of a 12h per cent
stock dividend by United States
Rubber Company showed that the
captains OF industry still have con-
fidence in the situation.
Among the stocks to attract most
attention were American Tobacco
Securities. United States Rubber.
and Industrial Alcohol. In all Of
these 1t was evident that there was
accumulation. Transcontinental OIL
attracted attention also on account
of its weakness.
As on yesterday American Tobacco
Securities was accumulated freely
when the market was weakest. The
buying that was done in this stock
would have made 1t buoyant but for
the weakness elsewhere. There Is
usually reason when tobacco acts that
way.
The Chamber of Commerce OF New
York passed a resolution protesting to
the Railroad Administration against
the favoritism that Is being shown
to the South in the way of rates.
U. s. Rubber broke this morning
because some traders imagined that
the directors would not keep their
word about the extra dividend OF l.
IL per cent in stock. Those who had
full confidence in the directors were un-
willing to buy this stock because they
feared the dividend might have been
discounted. The company enters 1870
with conditions remarkably favorable.
