PARDON FOR OFFICERS
WHO KILLED 'SHINER

Frankfort, Ky, April 30
Governor Morrow pardoned De-
putty Sheriffs Critt Conley and
Edward Bailey, who killed Green
Stone after destroying moon
shine still on Indian Grave branch
in Knott county last November
The pardons were granted as
a matter of right, not of mercy;
the Governor said. He said the
transcript Of evidence was filed
with the application lor pardon,
and 81 am utterly at a loss to un-
derstand the verdict. 1t is not
supported by the facts, it is not
sustained by the law, and i9
against the evidence" "
Governor Morrow then recited
the fact that the officers. on the
way to the still, met Green
Stone and a companion and fol-
lowed their tracks in the SNOW to-
the still, and came upon Stone
afterward on the mountainside,I
overlooking the mouth Of thei
hollow. where the still was To-
Gated. and that he drew his gun
and fired before they killed him
There is presented for the
consideration of the executive
the question whether the law en-
forcing officers OF the Common
wealth are to be convicted when
they have done nothing but their
duty; or whether they are to bel
punished for protecting their
lives in the discharge of their du-E
ties. This verdict if sustained, |
will paraIyze the enforcing Of
the law against those who vio-
late it. When an officer goes
into the Businesses of the noun
tains to locate and destroy moon
shine stills he is entitled to every
protection Of the law. He puts
his life in jeopardy to mainain
the law and when attacked by
those who are violating it he has
every right to protect his life and
is entitled to the shield of The /!
aW, which he serves"

YOU! 60 TO SUNDAY
SCHOOL ON SUNDAY

One Of the most interesting re-
ligious movements OF recent
years is the "Go-To-Sunday-
School movement which has for
it object the increasing of attend
ance in the schools, and the re-
newing of the interest i'll Sunday
School work. This is one OF the
most 1audable enterprises that
can engage the attention and en-
list the sympathies Of the young
people, especially, OF the com
munity. Every effort will be
made by the Sunday Schools OF
Madison and the country to make
the attendance on May a re-
cord breaking one.
The healthy stimulation oil Sun
day School work afforded by The
Colo Sunday School movement
is well calculated to promote a
larger attendance and greater in
terest. Pupils of the various
schools will work with a right
hearty good will to bring Madi-
son to the front in the matter OF
Sunday School attendance on
May /. Let everyone put forth
every effort to make old Madison
county take a place in the front
rank. Go to your Sunday School
or some other one, on May lst.
and try TO persuade some of your
friends who have not been in the
habit Of attending, to go at least
that day.
