THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GEORGIA, FRIDAY. NOVEMBER 26, 19W | RED HOI QUESTIONS fIBED ATGDVERNOB I Governor’s Action in Refusing to Interfere in the Kellogg Mur der Case Is Severely Criticised. I Editor The Journal: Will you kindly I publish the following communication: N. A. M. ! MARIETTA, Ga., Nov. 22. 1909. I Gov. Joseph M. Brown, Atlanta, Ga. j Dear Sir: On Friday of last week, a ne -1 gro by the name of J. B. Kellogg was hanged in Cherokee county for the homi cide of one J. C. Landers, a white man. This negro was tried before me as judge of this circuit in September of this year; he had no money to employ counsel, and I appointed two attorneys of the Canton bar to defend him; after a trial lasting a few hours, the jury returned a verdict of guilty, without a recommendation to mercy, and, there being no discretion vested in me as judge under the law to do otherwise, I sentenced the negro to hang. The attorneys appointed to defend the accused did not see proper to make a motion for a new trial, but one of them made a strong effort before the prison commission to have his sentence com muted to life imprisonment; the other at torney was stricken with typhoid fever shortly after the trial and confined to his I bed for several weeks. All of the witnesses against the accused were negroes, and those that gave the most damaging testimony were in the employ of a very prominent white citi zen of Cherokee county, who, at a time I previous to this, had himself had some II trouble with the accused and who took I a very active interest in the prosecution I of the defendant at this trial. | NOT GUILTY OF HANGING CRIME. I heard the evidence against this ne gro patiently -and impartially; after care fully weighing and considering all the evidence, the statement of the accused, and the surrounding circumstances, in r eluding the interest or want of interest of i the different witnesses, and applying the facts as were demonstrated at the trial to the law applicable to the crime of murder, I stated immediately after the I trial, and I state now, that this negro, Kellogg, was not guilty of a hanging crime under the ihw. “Feeling this way' about the matter, and in an effort to conscientiously dis charge the duties of the position I occupy. I voluntarily addressed a letter to the honorable prison commision of this stata earnestly recommending that the sen tence of Kellogg be commuted to life im prisonment. I stated in this letter “that a careful examination of the record in the case would demonstrate the fact {hat this negro should not be executed.” I do not believe there is a judge of the superior court in this state that could have tried the defendant under the same facts without arriving at the same conclusion, and I do not believe the su preme court would have permitted the verdict to stand, if the case had been carried there on a writ of error. Mr. W. H. Landers, a good citizen of this county, a brother of the deceased, and my personal friend, employed coun sel to prosecute Kellogg, and was present at the trial himself. He stated to me sub sequent to the trial that he did not be lieve the negro ought to be hanged, but should be given life imprisonment. I believe the jury in this case did what they thought was right, and returned a verdict according to the way they under stood the law and the facts, but juries are just like the rest of us—they are not immune from making mistakes. I have had 15 years’ experience as an attorney and one year as judge of this circuit, and I feel that I should be aa capable of judging matters of this kind as the average juror whose business is not that of studying law and differentiating legal propositions. SAYS GOVERNOR UNDERSTOOD SEN TIMENT. I know there was a strong public senti ment around Canton in favor of hanging t this negro, and it is clear to my mind that you discovered this fact; but this sentiment largely grew out of the fact that this negro had previously had some trouble with another negro, and one or two white men that were your strong po litical friends—he had previously been tried and served a few months in the chain gang for this trouble. In passing the order declining execu tive clemency, you state In part as fol lows: “I believe that as the will of the people expressed at the ballot box must be obeyed, so the will of the people de termined under oath in the jury box must be protected. Furthermore, it is not in tended by the constitution and laws that the inhabitants of this state shall make of it a walking arsenal; on the contrary all who conduct themselves peaceably must be assured 1 minunity from harm et* ” . ( In parsing thle order, you have dem onstrated that you either failed to read j the record of the case so as to familiarize j yourself with the facts as given under | oath at the trial, or else you willfully un dertook to deceive the public as to the real facts, and have played politics at the expense of human life. Was the deceas ed. Landers, “conducting himself peace- , ably?” The uncontradicted sworn evi dence on the part of the state, as appears of record, shows that he left his wife and family at home, and went on Saturday night to a near-beer saloon about one mile distant, engaged in a beer drinking with the accused, a negro; he asked this negro to drink with him, and paid for the- drinks, and the accused and the de ceased and about a dozen negroes went into a secluded place in the woods some distance from the public highw’ay, and 1 j engaged in a gambling game, "crap I shooting.” The deceased was the self-appointed umpire of the game; along about mid- 1 I night, the accused got into a dispute with 1 ! him about one of his decisions; Landers told Kellogg two or three times “he didn’t ’ l want to have to hurt him;” they were on j their knees on the ground; Kellogg told; him “to hurt;” both up; Kellogg in- . . stantly fired his pistol at Landers one ■ i time, and ran: he insisted that lenders j i threw his hand to his hip pocket in an ! effort to shoot him. and he fired, thinking , ; it necessary to save his own life. It was 1 I insisted on the part of the state that i Landers never put his hand to hie hip! pocket in an effort to shoot Kellogg; that ' i he had no pistol, and got up for the pur- | ] pose of leaving the game. lenders was | i the only white man present. : Is this conduct on the part of Landers ' what you term “a citizen conducting him- 1 self peaceably?” < PERTINENT QUESTIONS. Governor, do please inform and enlight- . en the public as to hoy you reconcile your order in the Elliott case from LaGrange wiQi your reasoning in the Kellogg case?' . .Wasn't Dr. Elliott on that occasion what you term “ a walking arsenal?” Wasn’t Mr. Rivers, the man he shot down in cold < blood, “conducting himself peaceably" In a fact as well as in name? Wasn’t he in < his own home with his family, and not in i < the woods gambling and drinking with | < negroes? Didn’t the medical board that I■< you appointed declare Dr. Elliott to be sane man? • < Now, as to this cheap, demagogic * claptrap and political buncombe of yours < in the Kellogg case, to wit: "I believe < that as the will of th® people expressed s at the ballot box must be obeyed, so « the will of the people determined under s oath In the jury box must be protected. ’ wasn't “the will of the people as de- : termined under oath tn the jury box’ I by two different verdicts in the Elliot! ; case “that he should hang?” And didn’i ] you defeat their will by commuting hit sentence to life imprisonment just like II you have defeated the will of the jurj in other murder cases, and burglary, ar , son, forgery, larceny, assault with intenl j to murder, and various other crimes bj 1 the wholesale since you have been gov ! ernor. j Also, didn't you grant executive cle . mency in the Elliott case not only aftei I two juries said by their verdicts h« should be hung, the presiding judge ap proved their findings, the supreme court affirming the last verdict, and the pris on commission unanimously declined twe or three times to disapprove their de f J cisions ? Have you forgotten that, old adage [ “that you can’t blow hot and cold through the same hole at the same 1 time?” . | Governor, you can play your little s ! "Ki-yi” game of walking to the capito’ .i to be inaugurated when you knew the ' papers through the state would advertise a the mknner of your inaugural (but rid . . ing in a fine carriage every day since j then), and drinking water out of a gourd j at the executive office when some farm j er happens to be present (but out of cut t glass and silver goblets at home), and , i wearing a suit of jeans clothes one day , for advertisement with the "wool hat ~ boys,” if ybu think it will fool the j masses of the people, and get them to ’ vote for you. But in the name of right. t justice, law, good government, and the j high position you are occupying, cut out j policies when it comes to dealing with . , the lives and liberties of the people oi this state: if you don’t do it, in my opln . ion you will not have near so exalted ' opinion of "the will of the people as ex , pressed at the ballot box” after the next election for governor as you seem to b have at present. From a legal standpoint, the homicide ’ of Landers by Kellogg could easily be construed to be “the result of that sud ! den, violent impulse of passion supposed ’ to be irresistible” (under the law). With 1 that construction, be was only guilty of 1 | voluntary manslaughter; construing it in its strongest light, he certainly was not i guilty of such murder as would demand • | the death penalty. I have discharged • i my duty—the responsibility is upon you. s Your order in the Kellogg case has , 1 put me in a position before the public • ' that the facts do not justify, and for 11 that reason I felt it my duty to reply to • you. I I You have given your order in this case I■ so much advertising through the press » of the state, I am sending a copy of this , I letter to one or two of the Atlanta pa ; pers with a request that they publish it.

Hoal was roused shortly before mid night from his cell at the Indiana reform atory at Jeffersonville, Ind., placed in an automobile and hurried to New Albany, four miles away. Within half an hour after leaving the reformatory, where he has been kept since the hold-up, Hoal had been ar raigned before Judge Utz, of the Floyd county court, had pleaded not guilty to indictments charging murder, assault with I intent to kill and assault with intent to rob, had been remanded without bail and was on his way back to the reformatory. The secrecy of the proceedings was deemed necessary by the officials on ac count of the strong feeling still prevail ing against the prisoner in New’ Albany.
