The death of Col. L. M. Farmer, of
Newnan, caused deep sorrow in our
community, where he was born and
reared, and where his young manhood
was spent. He was a good man and
useful citizen, and hosts of friends
mourn his untimely demise.
We also sympathize with Mrs. Geo.
W. Mathews, of Moreland, in the death
of her venerable and estimable hus-
Itand, which occurred last week. Many
times have we enjoyed the hospitality
of this worthy couple, and found much
pleasure in their company.

implicated in the killing of young Mc-

who was arrested as accessary to the
crime, was exonerated and is again
enjoying his liberty.
A negro named Bob Hines shot a

A brilliant event of the autumnal
season was the hallowe’en party given
by Misses IJobie and Ruth Bailey to
the members of the “Young Peoples’
Social Club” on Friday evening of last
week, at the home of Mr. E. J. Bailey.
The Bailey home, widely known for its
cordial hospitality, is one of the hand
somest in the county, and on this oc
casion, with its spacious rooms thrown
open and artistically decorated, it pre
sented a scene of unusual beauty.
Here and there throughout the halls
and rooms hung jaek-o’lanterns and
witches’-head lanterns, which gave the
place a wierd and ghostly look: and
witches, ghosts and other fantastic
spirits were on hand to unveil the fu
ture. On the large front lawn, where
the guests were received, an open fire
added greatly to the fun of the party,
and played an important part in many
of the festivities. “Bobbing the ap
ples" and "burning the nuts and can
dy" were favorite pasttime!. Another
happy thought, which afforded much
amusement, was the telling of fortunes
by one of the witches, svho with her
curds foretold each one’s fate by the
"sign of the moon, the stars, and a
pot of boiling water.’’ At the supper
which followed two courses were served
from the dining-room, where the deco
rations were white and yellow chrysan-

grandmother, Mrs. Fannie McKoy, to saved because Gov. Brown could not
stand the pressure put upon him by ex-
Gov. Terrell, who represented Harper
as attorney before the Prison Commis
sion. which refused to recommend clem
ency.’’
It will be remembered that Harper
killed the sheriff of Murray county.
For that crime he was convicted and
sentenced to hang. It came out later,
however, (and not before the jury,) that
Harper was surprised by the sheriff,
nd was not informed that it was an
officer seeking his arrest. He was re
treating, and the officer (unknown to
be an officer) was advancing on him
when the fatal shot was fired. Judge
Evans and also Judge Holden, of the
Supreme Court bench, both recommend
ed commutation of the sentence. Judge
Evans said: "I think the circumstances
attending the trial and the facts estab
lishing the homicide will warrant a
commutation of the sentence. The
State did not produce the sole eye-wit
ness, after the Solicitor-General in his
opening address had said he would
prove the crime by eye-witnesses.”
Judge Holden said the same, in almost
the same words. Holden was appoint
ed Supreme Court Judge by Gov. Smith.
After the development of these facts
public sentiment in Murray county
changed very materially, and there was
a general demand made on the Gover
nor to commute the sentence to life im
prisonment.
In regard to The Press’ story to the
effect that ex-Gov. Terrell was the at
torney for Harper, and that he "put
a pressure on the Governor which he
could not resist,” it seems to be wholly
a fiction. It was stated in our Atlanta
dispatches yesterday that Terrell had
no connection whatever with the ease,
and, on the other hand, Harper’s law
yer, Sam Hewlett, who urged the case
before the Governor, was a very ardent
Smith supporter last year.
Harper’s sentence was commuted on
Thursday. Murray is one of the moun
tain counties of North Georgia. Its
railroad facilities are very meagre. The
county-seat is credited with 213 inhabi
tants. That "deluge of letters” must
have been gotten up and transmitted by
a flying machine to have reached Atlan
ta on Friday in time for the Atlanta
letter to The Press of Saturday.
In view of these facts, and some other
facts in regard to the exercise of the
pardoning power, it would be a rather
remarkable thing to start a gubernato
rial campaign with John Harper as an
issue.

— Newspaper editors are learning by
experience, as well as other people.
Until a few months ago there were
three papers in Washington county.
The Tennille paper then consolidated
with the Sandersville Herald, leaving
only two. Now the Sandersville Her
ald and the Sandersville Progress have
consolidated, making only one paper in
the county, and they will issue a semi
weekly paper. This was the proper
thing to do, and Sandersville should
discourage any other paper that may
start up there, for one first-class pa
per is much more credit to the town
than two makeshifts would be. It
takes money to run a newspaper, and
newspaper men are learning by sad ey
perience that two papers cannot be run
successfully in a one-paper town.

Resolutions of Respect.
Adopted by Elim Sunday-school on
the death of Mias Zema Grimes.
Wheress, on June 28. 1909. God, in
His infinite wisdom, saw fit to remove
from our midst our beloved friend and
puDil, Misa Zema Grimes. In the pass
ing away of Zema we feel that the i
Sunday-school has lost a faithful pupil, j
and it causes mournful reflections to j
think that never more will we have
the privilege and pleasure of seeing
her in the school; that never more will
we feel her warm hand-clasp nor hear
her sweet words of greeting. It is so
hard to think that we will never again
see heron earth, yet we will live with
godly hope of meeting her in heaven,
where parting is no more. Yes, if our
prayers are answered we will meet her
on the other shore, "in the sweet bye
and bye,” and we rejoice in the hope
that

we have lost a loving friend and a
