Columbia, July 5.---GovernOr Har-
vey is making it very clear that he
Is not Governor to be easily drag
ged into promiscuous exercise Of the
pardon power. In ia great many
cases the Governor has been urged
to extend executive clemency, and
in every single case since he became
Governor has turned Il deaf ear, stat
ing that it Is not his duty to upset the
decisions Of courts. In some cases he
has referred such petitions to the
pardon board, but on none of them
has any action yet been taken
In one unusual instance receutly
a solicitor asked the Governor 10
parole, during good behavior, a pris-
oner in the penitentiary, tho soltci-
tor advising the Governor that when
the criminal was indicted he pleaded
guilty, on the solicitors statement
that he would use his influence in
having the Governor shorten the sem

oner. The prisoners conduct has
been good. He has served twelve
months Of his year and half SEN
tence, and the solicitor has asked
the Governor to parole the man dur
ing good behavior.
This has been done in other years.
bu. Governor Harvey has advised the
solicitor that while he does not want
to embarrass him, still he does not
feel that he could extend clemency
in such case and then turn down
other petitions signed by prominen.
citizens in many cases. However, the
Governor advises the solicitor that
he has referred the matter to she
pardon board for investigation.
Various prisoners, some under SEN
sence Of death, have appealed to Mr..
Harvey for clemency, but the Gov
ernor has not as yet exercised this
authority. lie says he does not pro-
pose to unless there is strong ground
for parole or pardon.

wired the Governor and asked that
he pardon negro who had compile

against two white men then on trial.
The Governor did Il little Investigate
ing and found tha. the negro was
under arrest second time and then
was in the county Jail. lie promptly
declined to issue the pardon.

TKl.COJNrY CLUB BOYS TO MEET
AT Clemson July 2O-Oconcc, Pick
ems and Anderson Counties.

az >hSiiiHoh ousS -p~'SoIlSS,
ems and Anderson Counties.
The tri-county encampment, or
short course, for the boys agricul-
tural clubs Of Oconee, Pickens and
Anderson counties will be held at
Clemson College July 20. 21 and %.
All Of the members Of the agTicultu-
raj clubs of the three counties are
Invited to attend this meeting. The
purpose Of the meeting is to have
learn something useful about agri-
culture. Visits will be made to the
experiment station, the dairy barns,
the creamery, hog and cattle barns,
vineyard and other places Of interest
about Clemson College, as we'll as
the Calhoun mansion and Old Stone
Church. There will be free use Of
the swimming pool, athletic field, free
motion pictures, and free concerts by
wireless telephone. All told, this will
be three days filled with jolly good
times for the boys Of these counties.
The original plan was for each Of
the boys TO take enough food to last
him the entire time-chickens, eggs,
fatback, etc, but Prof. Henry, who
has charge Of the encampment, has
agreed to furnish all Of the food
necessary for each boy while there,
have it prepared by the college cooks
and served in the dining hall, except
that each boy is required to bring
two frying-sized chickens with him.
Bring the chickens alive and they
will be dressed at the college.
1t is hoped that there will be at
least 200 boys in attendance from the
three counties. In each Of the three
counties there are slightly less than
100 boys in the agricultural clubs,
the county memberships being nearly
equal-about 500 in all. The meet
ing will be in the nature of a real
vacation to most of the boys, many
OF whom have never had an oppor-
tunity to enjoy such vacation.
