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.

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.

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. How’s This?

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. Very Low Fares to California and North Pacific Coast, via Rock Island Lines. Choice of three best routes.
