The newa story relating to Mr Alexander's crime and the commuta tion of his sentence a« furnished by th# Atlanta oorrtftpondent of The Tel- egraph and printed In our news col umns yesterday Is as follows: Mr. Alexander Is a member of one of th* most prominent families In Georgia, having been himself a man of.Mgh •tendin'* in the bus iness and aoelal world. He was one of the leading cotton factors of Augusta Rpcrutatlon In fu ture* brought his downfall, lie secured large eums of money on what- was claimed to be false col lateral, and being unable to meet tha notes, left the city. A close friend of Mr. Alexander's family stated today that th* factor never Intended . committing a crime. He etataa that th* money was obtained under temporary pressure, Mr. Alexander being due. he found that the relative upon whom he had depended aa a last recourse, was too ill to> transact any business. The Im pending crash could not then be averted. When arraigned In court a plea of gyllty wee entered. It wae the first purpose of Judge Henry c. Hammond to give a sentence of two or three year*. It wae found that a tertn of such length would have had to have been served on the public roads. In all probability on those of the prisoner's home county. Inetead. a Jientence of alx years was Imposed In order that he might he sent to a pri vate camp. Mr. Alexander has been keeping book* for Baxter A Co., the les sees at Fargo, alnoe he begin serv ing his term two yrara ago. HI# application for executive clemency wae backed by a petition signed by practlcelly alt the lead ing business, nrofeeslonal and official cltliens of AUfuata, The chief Injury wrought by this sort ‘of logic and results Is that It ed ucates the public sentiment to a false conception of the uses of th* criminal law and confuses the inexpert mind aa to .what the 'tan really 14. We arc told aa If tt waa an exoneration pos sibly, or excuse, at loast, that. Mr. Alexander In obtaining money for speculative purposes used "false col lateral" and that "he never Intended to oommit a crime,"* hoping to get the money from some source If hi* spec ulation failed and taking the chances of making It good on this contingency.

Th* truth Is that every self-rasped- tnif Institution anticipates Its own de« atnJdton. but not Its own decline. If you worship with sacrad sincerity ot an altar you iW expert that altar to be deatroyed; you may expect It to be desecrated; hut you cannot expect It to be Ignored. Take on* of those pleasant solemn, florid fellow# who. In th# end of the middle ages, took chivalry and heraldry quite seriously; Froissart, for Instance. Froissart could easily have believed that the peasants would rise and destroy all knighthood and all pictured pedigree; would split up all the shield*, rip up all the pen none, and drag all the create and feather# In the mlra. This really seemed likely to his time; and X wish to heaven It had happened. But tha one thlnr Froissart never could have understood or believed was this, that heraldry should remain, but should re main unimportant He could have tm. tftmd piemans tearing to placet the sacred person ot a herald, but lie could not have conceived the Idea of a pa trician being slightly ashamed of be- Ing a herald at all. Tet certainly ev en* modern fentleman of that rank would shake either with ahame or laughter upon being reminded that he wo* known tn public as a Red Dragon or a Portcullis, or even a Blue Mantle. Froissart, to short could have imag ined that heraldry might be destroyed, but It haa not been destroyed. Rut he could never hava Imagined what has really happened.
