LAWRENCEVILLE, GEORGIA, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER°29th 1896. Populists’ Methods Exposed. LETTER FROM GOVERNOR ATKINSON, .\\ii \\ ivtkiivikw with Kourrr oit-(o:M:n\r. c. n. him,. lio\. S. A l{onr>K.vm:nuv,Ch’r Ex., Com., Thomas County, Thomasville, Ga. Dkui Sn lam in receipt of your communication, stating that 1 am being censured on ac. count ot a circular containing a" statement that I had pardon ed Adolphus Duncan, a negro j who had been twice convicted of rape on a white woman, and asking whether or not I had authorized its publication as issued. If you had hut reflected for a moment, you would have known that to attend to the duties of Governor and do the amount of stump speaking that is done by me, was all 1 hat it is possible for one man to do. It is .not. possible for me t<i superintend or know of the work done by supporters of the Democratic ticket in distributing campaign literature, and it does me a great injustice t<> hold me re sponsible for others do without my knowledge or' consent. There would lie jrtxt as much reason and justice in presuming that Bryan and McKinley knew of and were responsible for everything done or said by their party supporters and newspaper advocates. I did not authorize the publication pf this objec tionable statement about which von write, and did not know of it until I saw a criticism on it in a newspaper. I then got a copy, read in it tlie statement above quoted, and saw that tho bare, linked, unexplained state mci l was calculated to demor alize those ignorant of the facts in tho ease, and at once, with-, out a moment's delay, request - j od Chairman Clay to use his; eil'orts to prevent the further i distribution of this circular. Mr. Clay himself did not read the circular or know of ils con tents until I called his atten tion to the same. All of his time is required to look after engagements for public speak ers, and to answer correspond ence. - it is, therefore, equally impossible for him to know the; contents of all »f the literature distributed by supporters of the; Democratic ticket. I will remark, however, from information received at Demo. I cratic head.pi..iters, I learn that the same circular is being distributed at points where it ! was not sent by any supporters ! of the Democratic ticket, audj that 1 am satisfied that the i Populist* have reproduced the I circular in n distorted form and j are distributing it among the j voters and attacking me for what I never did, aud for what they themselves are now doing and prefunding that it is the work of Democrats. As cor roborntive of this I refer to the garbled extrrets of same in this i week’s populist paper, purport-1 ing to be a true copy of the circular. 'l'llis is upon a level with other low, dirty, and dis reputable campaign methods of the populists. The parties who compiled the matter in the circular in ques tion, doubtless thought thatas so much liad been said in the newspapers about the Dtincun case, that every one was just us familiar with the reasons for granting the psrdon as they were themselves, and that the bare suggestion of the ease would recall the reasons upon which the pardon of Duncan was based. The ease in short was this: Duncan was convicted of rape! and sentenced to be bunged. The Supreme Court aud other ! officers expressed to me a doubt as to bis guilt. It was sug gested that ill view of the doubt of his guilt, that I commute his sentence to imprisonment in the penitentiary for life. 1 declined to do this,' and tut ml that if he was gniltv lie *h»nld be bung,and if innocent, lie should by pardoped; that I ht-lB ia* no middle ground in a r.ipe cane. When the charge of rape is made the innocent deserve no punishment, and the guilty deserve no mercy. Even though he was an humble negro, 1 felt that it was my duty to learn the truth, whut j over t ime and effort it might cost me. I did learn the truth. It wa- I elenrly plover, to til- satisfae jtion of the community, Ila I jury, the Solicitor-General, am i all ot the olllcers ol th-eour. that Duncan was an innocent ; man. I was clearly satisfied of hi j innocence and pardoned him. ft is a matter of regret to I every self-respecting Georgian j that the populisti have in der i taken to conduct this campaign J upon such a low plane. Whip I do not propose to sink to theii level. 1 am forced, in replying Ito these attacks, to sav such tilings and state such facts that the people can get at. the truth. The objectionable clause in the circular in question was made to reply to one of of llieii campaiu slanders, and has just above it tin* following state ment: “While it is 1 ot deemed proper to refer to the exercise of the pardoning power of an Executive as the reason why lie sho lid he supported politically yet inasmuch as G ,v. Atkinson has been attacked by the popu lists for pardoning Hinton for the purpose of prejudicing 1 lie colored people against him, it is but proper to refer to the following cares.” Then fol lows the allusion to the Duncan case. If our Democratic friends will get hold of the untruthful and slanderbi** circulars which are being put in circulation by the .Populists in order to defeat me, they w ill find ample cause for indignation against our op ponents. Let us now turn otti guns upon the enemy. Let no Democrat lire into the Demo cratic ranks while there is a common foe upon the field. Before believing charges against our party nominees, let us make inquiry and learn the truth. In the course of political campaigns it is not my custom to reply to attacks ~f a j on a! nature made by my p I tie-t! opponents, and only notic this one because the request to do so conies from you as Chairman of the Democratic Executive Commit!' yourOounty. Obediently yours, \V. Y. Atkinson. Hill’s Strong Words* HAS A YlGOUtil'S DEFENSE TO MAKE ON ATKIN SON’S RECORD. SAYS THK OOVKItNoU WAS moil I IX I'AKHONIXO nrxTAX. From Constitution Sept., tMtli Severe attacks have h. ei made upon Governor Aikinsoi by the populists and his cue uiies because of his pardoning Adolphus Duncan and his refus al to grant pardon to Arthur Ha live. It has been charged that .the governor was influenced by po litical motives in extending tin pardon to Duncan, and seven censure ha- been made by tin populists in his refusal to com mute the sentence of Arthur Hanye. From all over the State in quiries have poured into Solid tor Charles D. Hill upon these cases. Members’ of both par ties have besieged him with questions regarding the Diinca' case and that of Hanye. Ip 11 this time Solicitor Hill lias re mained silent. He was Solid tor General in both eases and thoroughly familiar with all facts in both cu-es. Cpon this Mr. Hrll wns seen yesterday afternoon. He was asked Ins opini >n of the action of the governor in the two cases concerned. Mr. Hill said: “In iny opinion, no attack was ever made on a public man with lees excuse milt more hlisii lute indefensible than on tin conduct of Governor Atkinson in these two cases. In the Dfin can case, alter two oonvi lion-, newly discovered evidence wit. produced which satisfied mo be yond a qiu st ion of a (login t hut the victim ill the case was mi-- taken in the identity, and that Adolphus Duncan Dune m wn*. enlirelv innocent ot the charge ugiiinst him, and for which i was under sentence of death There was no question wha'- ever as to the genuinely ** of this evidence. After n careful study of tie* newly discovered evidence, being eqnvme-i| thai the pegro was nmqoeiit, j wrot * th« governor a letter urging ; him to grant the jiurdnit, and i iq fn»m«<nt interviews with tl u governor I went over the mi. Ideliue ill the naso with him, weighing carefully every feature !of it uml endeavored to show • him, in the light of the newly discovered testimony, that the verdict was wrong. “In addition to this careful consideration of the testimony, j there never was a stronger pres ure brought to bear upon an ex ecutive in helm It of executive clemency. The supreme court jot the State, even wit hunt new jly discovered testimony, roc commended at least a comntu | tation of the sentence.' Hun dreds of the best citizens of At- lanta. not influenced l>v maud lin sentiment, because senti ment was all on thenlher side, but from consideration of the evidence published in newspa pers, repeatedly urged the gov ernor to grant the pardon. Those people who would criti cise the governor on account of the pardon in this ease are not acquainted with the facts. They do not appreciate the courage of an executive in the discharge of his duty In my position i have been frequently called upon by Governor At kinson for my opinion in appli cations for pardpus, in cases where I had represented the State. “I have never kno\vti an of ficial more conscientious and laborious in the investigation of every case than Governor Atkinson. Neither popular clamor or private appeal has any effect upon him. but lie is guided alone by hi- judgement and Ilia conscience as to what is the truth and life right in every case. The enemies <,f (luvernor Atkinson in attacking hint on thqg'xercis- of executive clem ency have selected a point at which, in my opinion, he is ab solutely invulnerable. 1 have, ever known a more striking instance of courageous dis charge of official duty than the pardon of Adolphus Duncan by iovernorJAtkiuson. unless it he he refusal to pardon Artlnn .liinve. In the first case, he p-rdbned a man convicted of a '.Host heinous often-. * because he trntlt in the evidence de manded it. “In the second case, notwith standing the most urgent ap peals made by many, and not - withstanding the ninny eircuni- stnnees of touching pathos sur rirnmling the cake, he refused to e .minute the sentence, because, after a careful consideration of '•very fact, Ilf- believed that the 1 rut It In the evidence would not 'justify him in interfering with! tin* sentence of tlm law. In my j humble opinion, the courageous i maintenance of tlie law by Gov- i et'iior Atkins hi in Ilanye case deserve* the unqualified admi ration of every cit izeit who be lieves in the enforcement of the law. 1 know how Governor Atkinson's heart was moved to its very depths by (lie appeals; made to him in the Ilanye case. [ know how he labored to find j some fact of extenuation which would justify him in interfering j with the sentence of the court, and 1 therefore know that his official courage in this case is worthy of all commendation. “This much 1 have said in j justice to Governor Atkinson. I do not believe Georgia ever had a truer, more faithful or more courageous executive, or one whose administration of his high office ever exhibited more uifselfish fidelity to the high duties of his public trust.” -• • OF WOMAN AND.OF I.OVK.
