CLEMENCY WASTED
ON A PARRICIDE
A few davg ago the trlsl of Beach
Hargis end d in a mls'rlal. He Is
j the son of the noted feudist chief of
Kentucky, the notorious Judge Har
j gis, whom he killed. After long de
lay Ihe trial came off and resulted as
! indicated. The mother's evidence,
the widow of the father whom he
murdered but who fought so hard to
save her non, together with the fact
ihat the boy's victim was an undesir
able citizen, probably Influenced
some of the jurymen, and led to the
I mistrial.
r that the young man was re
h-ased under a $25,000 bond, furnish
<d by his mother and her two broth
ers, his uncles, upon his pledge tha
he would quietly remain In Hot
Springs awaiting his next trial. But
no sooner was he released from jail
than he broke this pledge. Within
twelve hours he had returned to
Jackson, his house, had got himself
tanked full of liquor, and was amus
ing himself “shooting up" the town.
He was re-arrested at his father's
“armory,” the scene of the murder,
where he hnd gone to sleep oft his
drunk. His uncles have withdrawn
from hIH bond and the probability is
that ho will now remain In Jail until
his next trial Is called.
For the mother of this pervert boy j
only pitying sympathy can he felt.
No matter how wayward and bad
even though his hands were stained
with the lifeblood i of his father, lie
was still her hoy; and who can blame >
her for trying to save him from a ;
felon’s death, or from the prison? j
But by hi* own acts so soon as he
was freed he has shown that on him
all sympathy Is wasted, nnd that I
those dumber* of the Jury erred who
on account of sympathy for the moth
er, or the character of the father, 1
failed to find this parricide guilty of j
murder.
There may be extenuating cireum
sUince* In some murder cases, where
It Is well to temper justice with
mercy, but never In a casts of parri
cide. The boy who would shoot
down nnd kill his father, wantonly,
In n petty quarrel, Is beyond all hope
of redemption. To expect any good
of him any time In the future Is nn
Idle dream; to make him an object of
pitying sympathy Is nn inexcusable
weakness; to temper Justice with
mercy In his case is folly. The law
should he sternly executed, and by a
life term In a penal Institution such
a criminal should be kept from run
ning n! large In a community which
at any moment ho would he liable to
shock by thh commission of another
crime.
llml there been a single redeeming
good pnrt In this unfortunate young
man's character, after the commis
sion of his horrible crime, after the
narrow escape he had from the hang
man's noose, after witnessing the
itgony of his mother and pending his
next trial, he would have acted at
least decently. But he showed no
remorse for the crime he had coin
mltled, no compassion for the mother
whose devotion to him was so touch
mg, and no appreciation of his own
position. He sought only to gratify
his base appetite, and showed only
contemptuous disregard for the
rights of otherß—ln short that ho
Is a brute.
It Is to he hoped that nt his next
trial he will be found guilty, and that
the prison bars will Impose the re
straint upon him which he needs nnd
which the good of society demands.
THE FILIPINO DURING THE NEXT
ADMINISTRATION.
The Filipino Is the ward of the Am
erican nation. Whether wv like It
or not. this Is a fact. Without a de
sire on our part to havf It so, the
fortunes of war aud Its results—or as
some would express it, the workings
of Providence —have placed the Phlllp
piner and the Filipino* under our
care .It has become our manifest
duty to see to the proper develop
ment of the resources of that rich
Island group and to lift its people to
a higher plane of civilisation. They
are the wards of the nation, under
Providence, Just as the Indians were.
It Is well theu, that we booorne bet
ter acquainted with them, and In a
direct, human Interest way such as
cannot be possible through formal
governmental contact at long range,
and red tape reports. This la difficult
because few Americans go to the
Philippines and only a small propoc
tion of those who go are properly
situated or equipped to make correct
observations, and because fewer Fili
pinos still come to the states. Among
: the few who hare come, however. Is
| one who now Alls a position which will
enable the American people to learn
something about the Filipinos through
the Instructive sidelight that will be
cast upou them by this representative
lot the race.
This Filipino Is Monlco Lopes, Mr.
I Taft's valet. Everybody has read of
[him, and knows that he serves Mr.
Taft Most people think thaL be
cause Mr. Taft spent sonic time In
j the Philippines as governor-general,
he there became acquainted with
Monlco and brought him along on his
return home . This however Is not
the case. Monlco came by himself,
1 because he wanted to see our coun
try. Among strangers he became
stranded, and so appealed to Mr. Taft
|for employment. He had heard of
I the big man In the Philippines, and
naturally appealed to him when he
! needed help. He got It. Mr. Taft em
ployed him and he so conducted him
.self that Mr. Taft will retain him
In the position he fills acceptably.
But Monlco Is not an ordinary valet
; The ordinary valet Is merely an au
| tomaton, who acts as he has been
wound. Monlco goes beyond this,
he reveals his Filipino nature as ex
hibited In one of his recent exploits.
■ Some of Mr. Taft's family having
some films to develop, Monlco was
sent to have this done. To this he
attended all right, but he didn’t stop
at this. Representing himself as the
Filipino secretary of the president
elect he Invited all the photograph
' ers of the city to Terrett Cottage to
! take pictures of his chief, and the
unsuspecting chief was greatly sur
; prised when a small army of photo
graphers swooped down upon him at
the appointed hour ready for bust
ness. Of course Mr. Taft, genial gen
tleman that he Is, did not disappoint
tho dupes of his enterprising valet,
and allowed the knights of tpe cam
era to level their Instruments at him.
So by Monlco’s escapade the visi
tors were made happy, Mr. Taft gain
ed more friends, and all was well be
cause It ended well.
Monlco will accompany Mr. Taft
to the White house when he becomes
president. He will constitute a part
of the administration as the presi
dent's valet. That he will do some
thing now and then that is original
and which will attract attention, this 1
Augusta exploit of his must lead the
public to expect. It will advertise
tho Filipinos, the untutored wards of
tho nation, whom In his official capac
ity he fairly represents.
CLAUS SPRECKELS, THE DEAD
SUGAR KING.
American multl-millianatres have
become such a numerous tribe that
tho death of one has ceased to at
tract more than a passing notice.
This was Illustrated In the death of
Claus Spreckels. which occurred a
few days ago.
He was known, as the Sugar King,
a title which he earned by whipping
tho sugar trust when It Invaded tho
Pacific slope and attempted to drive
htm out of business. He promptly
accepted the challenge thrown at his
feet by the trust, nnd turning his
business on the Pacific slope over
to his managers, ho went to Phila
delphia where he built and' equip
ped the largest sugar refinery In the
world. Before ho had ceased to fight
or to think of a truce the trust capi
tulated, having found that when it
was In search of a deer It had caught
a full-grown tiger.
Claus Spreckels was a German by
birth. He landed in Charleston In
1848, with $8 In his pocket. Quickly
catching the gold fever which led so
many adventurous spirits to Cali
fornia in 1849 he too found his way
to the Pac.tif coast where he suc
ceeded so well that when he died
the other day he left an estate valued j
at $76,000,000.
He was a man of enterprise. He 1
owned ships nnd encouraged the
shipping trade; he pushed and built ;
railroads where railroads were need-1
ed before the need was apparent to j
j other men, ami he founded and con-i
ducted a wonderful and gigantic
sugar business.
Tho hulk of his fortune was made j
!by practically taking possession of j
| the Hawalin Islands and establish- j
j lug there enormous sugar estates
j which he operated at great profit with
cheap labor. To him more than any
! other man, however. Is due the de
velopment of the resources of those
Islands nnd the valuablo trade be
tween them and the Pacific coast.
His death removes the last of the
successful pioneers among the 49
nera, who succeeded In building up
; colossal fortunes In the new country
of gold.
New Aspect of the “Yellow Peril.”
Sir Robert Mart, for a generation in
spector of customs for China and
reckoned as the men that knows the
Chinese better than any other for
eigner, speaks of their unreasonable
ness, calling them strangely reason
able, and of their abhorrence of mi
litarism. But seeing that they can
not hold their ground, they have turn
ed their attention to an army. What
will they do with It? In Sir Robert's
opinion, they will compel peace by
throwing their force—say, of ten mil
lions of men —with the country that
was attacked. The Philadelphia Rec
ord. contenting on this, says;
"The millennium of peace to be
brought on by China and under her
compulsion! Might be made to
give way to right In the councils of
nations at her dictation! This is an
aspect of the 'yellow peril' that the
war lords and militarists cannot but
contemplate with alarm. No longer
will they be able to turn up their
noses at the proposition of universal
arbitration and ask contemptuously:
•Who will enforce the decrees of the
untversal arbitral tribunal?' When ten
million Chinese fighting men. abhor
ring soldiery as they do, should stand
ready to give battle from a sense of
pure reasonableness, the question
would be superfluous. There is ns
much virtue In a 'when.' however, as
in an 'lt' " —Montgomery journal.
THE AUGUSTA HERALD
WARMING UP TO JUDGE TAFT
No Doubt There is a Very Friendly Feeling in
the South for him
The preparation for the dinner at
Atlanta In honor of Judge Taft and
the enthusiasm in respect to It that
lls being manifested throughout the
state, indicate that, he will have to be
guarded in what he says on that oc
casion if he doesn't want to create
[the impression that he has been
captured by the South Instead of cap
turing the South. From all accounts
the managers of the dinner are re
ceiving offers of 'possums from hund
reds of people in various parts of the
state, and one of those making the
offer, Mr. Harry S. King, of Newnan,
known as the 'possum king, has this
to, say; "Give us a 'possum loving
president, and the White house will
ring with peace and prosperity and
joy for years to come.”
The occasion promises to partake
of the character of a love feast.
Judge Taft will be made to under
stand that, although the South hasn't
had much to do with shaping the gov
wiment since the war between the
states, and may not have a great deal
to do with shaping It during his ad
ministration, there Is a strong dis
position to give his administration a
very hearty support. He has al
ready heard and seen enough since
he has been in the South to make
him feel that he is a welcome visi
tor. The address last Saturday of
Gen. Rhodes, who with a delegation
from Birmingham visited Augusta to
invite him to visit that city was cal
culated to create in his mind the im
pression that the South trusts him
Impllclty and looks upon him as a
friend. Gen. Rhodes stated the case
strongly, but It Is pretty certain that
there will be no protest. In the open
ing of his remarks he said: “If you
know the heart and head of the men
of the South, and particularly of Birm
ingham, you know th>y regard the re
sult of the last election as a benedic
tion from God Almighty Himself to
the people of the South over their
own protest. I am a democrat; most
of these gentlemen are democrats,
hut we all welcome your advent into
the South, not only because we have
come to love you for your humane
qualities, for we understand that your
TURNING OVER NEW LEAVES
Some New Year’s Resolutions of
Prominent Men
(BY C. B. QUINCY.)
Just about this time the recorders
of resolutions got out their adding
machines, oil them and get ready
for business.
There Is a peculiar satisfaction
about making a good resolution, more
especially If one Intends to break it |
at the earliest possible moment. And
then there is the added joy of break- i
ing it—ln fact, the best part of a good
resolution Is the sudden ending of It.
So perhaps all these resolves should
not he taken too seriously.
President Roosevelt has resolved to
declare the Ananias club roster
closed. Also that he will send only ,
two more last messages to congress,
and that neither of them will be of
more l hail 700 words. Likewise that
he will shoot rhinos full of lead for
the sole ■ purpose of increasing our
knowledge of faunal natural history. ;
Mr. Taft has resolved to hole out In
one every time, (if he succeeds he
will abandon politics altogether for
golf, but the chances are that he will
stick to bumblepuppy.)
J. D. Rockefeller has made up his
mind to pay tho government s29j
-000.000 ns a small expression of his
regard. Further, he has decided to sub
stdtze any persons wishing to estate j
lish Independent oil companies.
W. J. Bryan has resolved not to
be a candidate for a presidential
nomination until 1912.
'Kaiser Wilhelm has resolved to
keep a perpetual seat on the water
wagon, end never, never to give out
another Interview.
King Edward's mind Is mado up
that he will never again wear a green
hat with a feather In it,
Castro, of Venezuela, has decided
to settle down to a quiet life, and
has also decided that he will never
drink more than a half a dozen quarts
of champagne at one meal.
Commissioner Bingham says that,
during the coming year ho will em
ploy the police force almost entire
ly to prevent and suppress crime, es
pecially crime of a more heinous na
ture than theatrical performances.

sympathies are as broad as the uni
-1 verse, but also because you have
come here sir, indicating to us that
you want the South to hold her place
In the councils of the nation.”
In the course of his response Judge
Taft said that his purpose wasn’t to
gain a political advantage for his
party, but to open the way for tho
South to have such a voice in the gov
ernment as her importance entitled
her to. He said he was against the
South or any other section of the
country forming a political division.
He wanted the political character of
the South to be as uncertain as the
; political character of any other sec
tion is. He said that if the demo
cratic party lost two or three states
in the South it would likely gain as
many states in the North, because
there were states there that were re
publican simply because the Soutn
was solid.
There is no doubt, of course, that
there Is a very friendly feeling for
Judge Taft In the South and, under
his administration, there will be a
freer discussion of political doctrines
In the South, provided the party for
which he stands doesn’t insist upon
solving in its own way the problems
which are Southern. t The Southern
! people are willing that assistance in
! solving these problems shall be tend
ered, but they object to having them
j solved by those who have but little
actual acquaintance with them, but
who have prejudices and theories in
regard to them.
Before Judge-. Taft’s Southern visit
comes to an end he will be able to
consider these problems from a
Southern point of view and thus be
\ better qualified to instruct and guide
: his party in matters in which the
South is particularly interested. Any
! way, the warmth of his Southern wel
come is making him realize that the
Southern people think that In him
they have found a friend who will
do whatever can be done to give the
: South the place in the government, to
[ which she is entitled without her
\ people being made to feel that a
j proper regard hasn t been maid to

Confederate Flags.
The first Confederate flag was tfie
stars and bars, a blue field and three
stripes, one white aud two red, and
on the blue field seven, white stars
in a circle, a star for each state that
up to that time had seceded. Iu bat
tle, however, it was seen that this
banner bore altogether too close a re
semblance to the stars and stripes,
and thus there came into use the
Confederate battleflag, the origin of
which seems to have been as fol
lows:
This is the statement’*’ of General
William L. Cabell; “When the Con
federate army commanded by Gen
eral Beauregard and the Federal
army confronted each other at Man
assas, it was seen that the Confeder
ate flag and the stars and stripes
looked at a distance so much alike
that $t was hard to distinguish one
from the other. General Beauregard,
thinking serious mistakes might be
made in recognizing our troops, after
the battle of July 18, at Blackburn
Ford, ordered that a small badge
should be worn on the left shoulder
by our troops, and, as 1 was chief
quartermaster, ordered me to pur
chase a amount of red flannel
and distribute it to each regiment.”
This Confederate battleflag was
adopted in September, 1861, and was
designed by Generals Johnston and
Beauregard. Red was its color, with
a blue St. Andrew's cross reaching
from corner to corner and white
stars on the cross representing the
different Southern states. The wom
en of the South made these flags by
hundreds out of their red and blue
silk dresses. Miss Constance Cary,
who afterward became Mrs. Burton
Harrison, the well-known novelist,
was one of the three Southern girls
who made the first three battleflags.
