"Chief Beavers has made the great est display of nerve, backbone and courage ever shown here by a city of ficial.” today is the opinion of Chair man Carlos Mason of the police com mission. in speaking of the action of the chief yesterday in suddenly swoop ing down on the tenderloin district and virtually wiping it off the city map. “The chief worked this whole thing out in his own mind, and then did what he thought to be his duty, without con sulting any other official or organiza tion of any kind. His action is strik ingly remarkable in this respect. He never informed any member of the po lice commission of his plans, and re ceived no instructions from the, com missioners. either individually or as an official body. What he did was done at the dictation of his own conscience. He has shown himself a man of un questioned bravery and courage." And then Chairman Mason added: Chief 's Move Was Surprise to All. "Some time ago the police commis sion voted that chief of police shpuld be chief in fact as well as name. That Chief Beavers is making good as a real chief there is no question His single-handed extermination of the ten derloin demonstrates it thoroughly.’’ < >th< t members of the police com mission express themselves along the ATLANTA, GA..

Brown again has been petitioned to pardon Thomas Edgar Stripling, convicted, escaped and recaptured murderer in Georgia, some time chief of police of Danville, Va., and now confined in the state peniten tiary for life in expatiation of his crime. This time the petition cornea not in the form of a voluminous roll backed by scores of signatures, legal pleas, and all of that. The last Stripling petition filed with the governor came in today’s mail, and it is signed by one name only, and the only plea that accompanies It is one invoked in the name of the little winged god of Love. E. T. Youngblood, writing from Tal lulah Falls, implores the governor to pardon Stripling, not alone for Strip lings sake and the happiness of his family, but in order that he —Young- blood-may claim as a bride Stripling's daughter, Ruth May, who has promised to be Youngblood's wife, but who, un der former promise to her father, will not wed so long as he wears the stripes of a felon.
