PENDLETON FREE;
GRAYS ARE HAPPY
Atlantan. Convicted by Filipino
Court, Wins Liberty From
Island Prison.
Members of the Atlanta Grays and
graduates of the old N'eel Milita y
K h',o! are rejoicing today at the news
that Charles M. Pendleton, an old com
rade. lias been freed from Billbid prison
In the Philippine Islands, and is now in
private business in Shanghai, China.
They expect to give him a hearty wel
ron,» when he comes home next Christ
mas.
Lieutenant Pendleton, of the Philip
pine constabulary, was convicted by a
native court about eight years ago of
the, murder of a Filipino, though his
f-iends believed the conviction a delib
erate move to make an example of some
American for violation of the Filipino
laws. American intervention was im
possible under the circumstances, but
wealthy Filipinos, believing Pendleton
Innocent, put up a cash bond of SIO,OOO
and freed him from prison. He was out
under this bond for six years, but when
he learned his appeal had been denied
he voluntarily surrendered and began
his fifteen-year term in Bilibid in July,
1910.
Grays Worked For Him.
It was through the efforts of the At
lanta Grays, headed by Captain Wil
liam c. Massey, combined with the aid
of Spanish-American war veterans and
members of the Fifth regiment, that
Pendleton finally was freed. Captain
Massey gave out a statement today,
authorized by the parents of Pendleton,
that the former officer had been set
free on July 10. this ''year, though for
certain reasons the news of the pardon
had been withheld until Th ndlcton had
left the islands.
Pendleton was offered his transpor
tation home, but proudly refused it, as
It was of the lowest class.
T have three times crossed the Pa
cific as an officer and a gentleman," he
said. "I will wait until I can go home
In the same manner.”
His friends gave him transportation
from the islands to Shanghai, where he
secured a good position. During his
freedom on b md Pendleton had become
an expert in railroad construction work
In San Juan Fight.
Charles M. Pendleton is the son of
Mr. and Mrs. William Pendleton, of
Atlanta He was reared in this city
and was a graduate of the old Neel in
stitute and afterward a student at Da
vidson college. He was a sergeant in
the Atlanta (Jrays, Fifth regiment of
Georgia, and when the war with Spain
broke out he joined the Seventy-first
New York regiment and fought with
marked bravery at the battle of San
Juan. After the, war he became a lieu
tenant In the Twenty-ninth Volunteers
and when this regiment was disbanded
became first lieutenant in the Philip
pine constabulary, the mounted police
of the islands. It was Pendleton who
commanded the detachment of Philip
pine soldiers sent to the St. Louis ex
position. It was just after his return
from the exposition to the islands that
the unfortunate incident occurred. His
arrest, trial and conviction followed.
Captain Massey requests all persons
Interested in the case to leave their
addresses with him at his office in the
court house.

TAFT IS INCAPABLE OF
UNDERSTANDING, SAYS
SENATOR JOS. M, DIXON
By SENATOR JOSEPH M. DIXON,
Chairman of the Progressive National
Committee.
NEW YORK, Sept. 17.—We hear a
gteat deal in this campaign about the
dignity, "poise" and "conservatism”
of the president. The constitution is
iepresented as attacked on all sides
and desperately defended by the presi
dent. with the aid of Mr. Barnes, of
New \ ork. The people are depicted in
.1 frenzie'd attempt to undermine the
foundations of their own liberties and
the sources of their own happiness,
with nothing standing between them
and their own imperilled institutions
but the stand-patters of the old guard.
It was Doctor Samuel Johnson, the
famous lexicographer, who, disgusted
with the appeals made by discredited
politicians to national pride and party
spirit in order to cover their own short
comings. once described patriotism as
the last refuge of a scoundrel " And
considering certain specious appeals
and shallow catch-phrases which are
much In circulation now, it is very easy
to see that they are intended to deceive
the people and to pervert their judg
ment.
Ex-Governor Frank S. Black said
once of Theodore Roosevelt;
"He is not conservative, if by con
servatism is meant waiting until it is
too late. He cares nothing for dig
nity, if by that is meant preserving a
dignified silence in the presence of fla
grant abuses." *
Many Good Bills Attacked.
And as to this constant criticism
that certain much-needed reforms are
impracticable because "unconstitution
al. ' Roosevelt knows, in common with
all clear-headed men, that the cry of
"unconstitutional" has been lifted up
to defeat almost every measure of ben
eficent legislation that has been en
acted into law. The Dolliver-Hepburn
railroad rate bill was opposed as un
constitutional. Probably no measure
has resulted in such far-Caching good.
It is doubtful whether the interests
that were ranged against this legisla
tion could now be persuaded to concur
in any measure looking to its modifi
cation or repeal. x
The bill for the Federal inspection of
meats was opposed as unconstitutional.
The pure food bill was opposed as un
constitutional.
In the spirit of Dr. Johnson’s defini-

THE ATLANTA GEORGIA* AND NEWS. TUESDAY. SEPTEMBER 17. 1912
tion, the constitution might be truth
fully defined as the last defensive re
source of imperilled and uncovered
wrongdoing
It was wittily remarked some days
ago that the president was "a well
meaning person entirely surrounded by
inexplicable phenomena." It does really
seem that President Taft is so satu
rated with formalism, so reverent of
precedent, so tender of change, that he
is incapable of understanding the great
democratic surge w hich, rising through
out the country, demands that our in
stitutions shall more clearly reflect the
enlarging popular sense of social jus
tice.
"Governor Wilson Quibbles.”
To the members of the Progressive
party this rattle about poise, dignity,
conservatism and constitutionalism
seems pitifully thin and unimportant.
So do the quibbles, evasions and plati
tudes of Governor Wilson. It is in
creasingly manifest that if Governor
Wilson has any clear conceptions of
policy he is determined to repress their
statement. His speeches seem con
structed on the theory that the func
tion of language is to conceal thought.
Running on a platform which he
himself has said does not constitute a
program, and which a leading Demo
cratic editor ha= called upon him to re
pudiate in its entirety, he has failed
thus far to state yvnat does constitute
his policy. '
Contrasted with the musty irrelevan
cies and political archaisms which con
stitute the Republican platform and the
feeble inanities thus far uttered by the
Democratic candidate, the clean-cut,
downright and outspoken declarations
of party purpose and party faith made
by the Progressive party, both in its
national and state conventions, natural
ly are winning the respect and confi
dence of the people.
“Our platform," says Roosevelt, "is
a contract to whose fulfillment and per
formance we pledge ourselves in as
binding a sense as we would to the
keeping of a private contract.”
There is no call in the Progressive
party that its candidate shall repudiate
the party platform. It is in the spirit of
candid speaking and straight dealing
that the party makes its appeal for
support, relying upon that truism of
history that the people can not be de
ceived and know whom to trust.
3 DIE IN PHOENIX
IN NEU HIDT
Police Chief and Patrolman Are
Stabbed to Death—American
Killed by Wild Bullet.
PHOENIX, ARIZ., Sept. 17.—Police
Chief Moore. Policeman Williams and
Scott Price, a young American, were
killed here in a riot between Mexicans
over the celebration of Mexican in
dependence day. The two policemen
were stabbed to death. The trouble
occurred last night.
Naturalized Mexicans and unnatu
ralized Mexicans got into a dispute
over the celebration. Williams at
tempted to quiet the trouble. The
Mexicans turned on him and stabbed
him.
Police Chief Moore learned of the
difficulty and ran up. Mexicans
stabbed and mortally wounded him. He
drew his revolver and fired at the
crowd. His bullet went w ide and struck
Price, piercing his heart.
As he shot another Mexican came up
from behind and plunged his knife into
Moore’s back. The police chief fell
dead.
Slayers Flee to Country.
J. Valenzuela, a citizen, who helped
Williams, was severely wounded. The
policeman and Valenzuela arrested two
of the Mexicans and succeeded in lead
ing them toward the jail when the
stabbing occurred. Moore tried to ar
rest the pair. They finally escaped.
Price was watching the fight.
The city council was assembled at
once and scores of citizens sworn in as
deputies to pursue the fugitives and to
preserve order in the city.

COUNTESS’ BROTHER
COMES TO IDENTIFY
BODY AFTER 18 YEARS
NEW YORK. Sept. 17—Through the
testimony of Franz Menschik. a postal
clerk of Vienna, who arrived from Eu
rope today, the Austro-Hungarian con
sulate today expects to clear up the
mystery surrounding the family of the
Countess Rosa Menschik Szabo. -for
whose murder Burton W. Gibson is held
in jail at Goshen, N. Y. Franz Men
schik is a brother to the countess, ac
cording to the contention of the con
sulate, and he will be asked to identify
the body now interred at Jersey City
as that of his sister whom he has not
seen in IS years.
Menschik was called from his home
as a witness before Surrogate Fowler
when the local officials of the foreign
government found that it would be es
sential to have a blood relation testify
before a case could be presented looking
to the removal of Gibson as executor of
the will of the countess.
It w ill be necessary to exhume it for
a second time.
Gibson in his cell at Goshen insists
that the young man will not be able to
identify the body for the reason that
the woman buried in Jersey City is not
his sister. The issue is clearly made
by the imprisoned lawyer.
