PARDON PETITIONS FOR
MORSE IN CIRCULATION
•'We pray for the absolute pardon of
Charles W. Morse." i
Tills is the gist of a petition which,
the people, not only in Atlanta, but the
entire United States are being asked to j.
slan. . -i
From the <lav that the United States
supreme court refused to grant the Ice
King's prayer for a writ of certiorari,
and ratified Ute rulings of the lower
court that sentenced Morse to 15 years
In the Atlanta federal prison, the friends
cf the New York financier, banker and
trust organizer have been energetic to
secure his release.
A campaign has been inaugurated
which has for Its object the extension
of executive clemency to Morse by the
president. The plan is to secure as
many signatures to the plea for pardon
as it is possible to obtain. ( •
PETITIONS IN ATLANTA.
To this end petitions have been print*
ed and circulated throughout the coun
try, and the agents of those back of the
movement have appeared In the leading
cities of the United States and are hard
at work getting as many influential
names as possible upon their petitions.
The campaign for Morse’s release has
reached Atlanta, and copies of the peti
tion have been placed at the Aragon ho
tel. the Marlon hotel. T. H. Pitts' cigar
store and the Brasetlon Drug company's
store. Efforts will be made by the
Morse agents Jo induee every citizen to
sign who is willing to do so. It Is the
plan, then, to submit these petitions to
the president, the idea being to thereby
convince him that Morse is deserving
of executive clemency. The petition,
which is very brief, is as follows;
THE PETITION.
“To his Excellency, the President of
the United States:
"We, the undersigned citizens of the
United States, respectfully beg leave to
present the following petition:
"We pray for absolute pardon for
Charles W. Morse, recently convicted of
a technical violation of the National '
hanking act.
“From our knowledge of the circum
stances. we believe that Mr. Morse did
not intend to wrong the National bank
of North America, or any stockholder of
said bank, and also because no depositor
suffered the loss of a single dollar.
"The circuit court of appeals, which
affirmed the Judgment against him. re
cognized that the punishment which has
been inflicted upon him is unusual.
"Although a large number of his
friends were willing to go on his bait
bond for an unlimited amount, the court
decided that he must be Imprisoned in
the city jail, where he vuaa incarcerated
for nearly a year. Even ’lf guilty, as
charged, he has already satisfied the ex
treme demands of the law, and has suf
fered, not only imprisonment, but keen
anguish of mind and body, together
with heavy loss of property, by reason
of his incarceration.
"We. therefore, crave the executive
clemency in his behalf, and in asking
this do not hesitate to express our be
lief that the great majority of our fel
low citizens would be grateful at Stich
exercise of the pardoning power."

WALTON COUNTY WOMAN
GROWS LARGST LEMON
Honors for raising lemons in great
abundance is held by the section border
ing on the' Mediterranean sea, but the
1 state of Georgia comes in for part of
ithe honors when it comes to raising the
'largest species of this fruit. This is
; plainly shown by the size of those recent
ly grown In' the hot house of Mrs. J. S.
Malcolm, in Walton county, near Mon
roe, Ga. *
Mrs. MaTcom has exhibited during the
past few months over 20 lemons that
weighed from 1 to 2 1-2 pounds, the 2 1-2- ■
pounder being the largest ever seen in
this section. Not only is it the largest
ever seen in this section, but it is be
lieved to be the largest ever grown m
this country and probably the world.
The lemon was grown in Mrs. Mal
com’s hot house on a three-year-old tree
this season. It was picked Sunday and
shipped to Atlanta to Mrs. G. A. Wright,
of 28 Lynch avenue, where it is now on
exhibition.
The lemon tree on which the prizes
were produced, was planted by Mrs.
Malcom just three years ago. She raised
it from its Infancy, taking especial pains
with it. The first fruit borne by the tree
was rather small, but the size of the
lemons this year more than made up for
tWarticlefity ih size last year. The tree
Is'flvg feet in height and has a diam
eter of two inches at the base of the
trunk. The 20 large lemons were entirely
too heavy for the small tree when they
were a couple of months old, and many ’
of them had to be plucked before they
had grown their limit.
All of the lemons were larger than the |
average fruit that is shipped into this
country and placed on sale at the dis- I
ferent grocery stores, while the prize I
2 1-2-pounder was many, many times >
larger than those sold by retailers. The '
one lemon contains enough juice to fur- |
nish lemonade for Atlanta's largest fam- I
ily and. wfl|ild supply juice for iced tea ;
for an entire season. The lemon Is fully ;
developed and will be preserved by Mrs. j
Wright to be kept as a souvenir.
Lagrange to build
CITY TROLLEY SYSTEM
LAGRANGE. Ga., Feb. 16.—At the
meeting of mayor and council of the city i
of LaGrange last night a franchise for i
an electric .street railway for LaGrange ■
was granted Messrs. Aikin and Preston |
and others, of Macon; C. M. Awtrey, |
G. E. Dallis and others, of LaGrange.
These gentlemen will proceed to se
cure a charter and organize the company.
The franchise contains the usual provis
ions of such agreements and is to run
! for 50 years.
• The company will begin construction
of a number of miles of trackage at an
early date after the organization is per
fected, and it is expected the railway
will be in operation by the end of 15
months from date of franchise.
LaGrange has grown so rapidly in the
past few years that it is now a little
city of "magnificent distances,” and
there can hardly be a question blit the
street railway will provs a paying prop
osition from the beginning. It will also
be the means of developing some splendid
suburban property.
GET POWER
The Supply Comes From Food
If we get power from food, why not
; strive to get all the power we can. That
Ils only possible by use of skillfully se
j lected food that exactly fits the require
■ments of the body.
Poor fuel makes a poor fire and a poor
fire is not a good steam producer.
* "From not knowing how to select th<-
right food to fit my needs, I suffered
grievously for a long time from stomach
troubles,” writes a lady from a little town
in Missouri.
"It seemed as if I would never be able
to find out the sort of food that was brst
for me. Hardly anything that I could
eat would stay on my stomach. Every
[attempt gpve me heart-burn and filled
my stomach with gas. I got thinner aid
thinner until I literally became a living
skeleton and in time was compelled t<
keep to my bed.
"4 few months ago I was nersuaded to
try Grape-Nuts food, and ft had such
< good effect from the very beginning that
IT have kept up its use —— since. I was
i surprised at the ease with which 1 dlgcs 1 -
led it. It proved to he just what T needed.
I “All my unpleasant symptoms, the
heart-bi’rn. the inflated Reeling which

I■ 1 ■
MRS. TILLMAN, Jr.
COLUMBIA. S. C., Feb. 15.-Mrs. Ben
jamin R. Tillman. Jr., has won her con
gest for the custody of her children.
I By a decision handed down by the state
I supreme court, this morning, the children
| are taken from the custody of United
States ■ Senator B. R. Tillman, their
I grandfather, and returned to their moth
er. The opinion of the court was to the
, effect that Senator and Mrs. Tillman be
'commanded to surrender the two chll
|dren, who were deeded to the elder Till
| mans last December by their father, upon
Ithe allegation that their mother was un
i fit. to properly rear them, and she was
j not able to give them such an upbringing
as he would like for them to have.
The court holds that such a deed is in
valid without the signature of both pa- :
rents, providing that both are living.
The derision of the court followed the j
application of Mrs. B. R. Tillman, Jr., i
to the state supreme court for a writ of
I habeas corpus for the children. Douschka
! and Sarah, who were deeded by her hus
[ band to his father and mother, following
(the separation df Mr; and Mrs. Tillman,
I Jr.
I The application for the writ came as a [
surprise, i(. being the first intimation to i
the public of the end of the romance
that had been so eagerly watched by the
people of the Palmetto state.
Allegations of cruelty by her husband
were made by Mrs. Tillman, Jr., while
her father-in-law. although in no way at- '
tacking her character, claimed that Mrs. :
Tillman, Jr., was not able to properly 1
care for the children.

. CLEAR THE DECK FOR
( TAFT'S MEASURES
I ■ ■ i
Will Use Every Effort to Get
His Railroad Bill Through
Congress
(By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON, Feb. 17,—Arrangements
I having been made by Republican leaders i
|of the senate to smooth out the creases |
in the administration plans for the en-.j
actment of postal savings bank legisla- ;
tion, stock Is now being taken of other .
bills numbered among the Taft policies
to ascertain what may be their chances
for passage. Sb far as the senate is bon- 1
cerned all of the administration bills ap- I
pear to be in good condition except the.:
federal incorporation measure, and that '
to create a legislative council for Alaska. [
The fact that Senator Beveridge;', who
Is sponsor for the Alaska bin, “has agreed
to allow it to be displaced as the “unfin
ished business," Indicates that he is not
entirely sanguine of its success. There
has developed in the senate a very pro
nounced objection to denying the people
of Alaska the right of suffrage, as would
be done by a bill permitting the presi
dent to appoint a legislative body. Many*
senators believe that it would be bet
ter to permit present conditions to con
tinue until the territory becomes more
thickly populated. Congress.' they argue,
is in a position to exercise control over
the mineral deposits so as to prevent any
fnonopoly from gaining a foothold.
STATEHOOD BILL.
The Arizona and New Mexico statehood
bill will receive early attention. It will
be amended by the senate committee on
territories in accordance with the plan
recently agreed upon between the. con
gressional leaders and the administration
advisers. In that form it is likely to pass
the senate and it is probable it will be ac
cepted by the houfce, This plan looks to
the separation of the votes in the two
territories on the acceptance of a con
stitution and the election of officers, and
provides for a general federal scrutiny
of the constitutions that may be adopted;
This accords with the president s Rian,
and it is asserted he will be thoroughly
satisfied with such an adjustment.
On every hand it 4s admitted that the
measure looking to federal action in
chartering corporations will go over un
til another session, but the proposed
amendments to the interstate Commerce
law have received a decided Impetus
within the past few days. The president
is pressing hard for railroad legislation;
and even the senators and representa
tives of his own party, whp are'not en
tirely convinced as to the wisdom of all
of the railroad legislation which he has
asked, are Inclined to get off the track
and allow him to have his way in the
matter.
WORk ON RAILROAD BILL. .-
Strong influences are at work to' get
the railroad bill out of committee at the
earliest possible moment, an<T some of
the senate leaders have given their
promise that it will be reported next
week if not this. No amendments will
be adopted of a character not satisfac-„
tory to the administration. Attorney
General Wickersham is now engaged in
a review of the provisions giving the
government supervision over the issuance
of stocks and bonds. And he may suggest
a number of alterations In the house
there Is a disposition to omit the pro
vision for a commerce court, but the sen
ate committee on interstate commerce ex
pects to retain that feature.
It was announced today that the spe-.
cial committee of- western senators, of ;
which Senator Smoot is chairman, to.
which the administration conservation
bills will be referred, expects to hold day'
and night sessions for the purpose, of ex
pediting Its W’ork. These bills, including
that relating to the withdrawal at public
lands and continuing the withdrawals in
force until revoked by the president or
by congress, and that providing for the
development of water power, will be re
ported to the senate as fast as they are
completed. The senate calendar is prac
tically clear of other measures and the
house is well up with its work.
To Confer During Day
WASHINGTON, Feb. 17.—The confer
ence of the Republican leaders in the

i and don’t let yourself be swindled by a
crooked horse dealer on any of the score
of tricks he has up his sleeve.

protect yourself in buying, selling or trading. Get
the sensational new book

ginger trick —the loose shoe trick —in short how to beat
