For Crops - Durior Past Week; MI as
'Prevent Cnltlvatlon pt Fields, j
JUtxiaH, July "21 The remarks of
crop correspondents for the week just
put are ' generally ' quite unfavorable,
and Indicate considerable injury to
crops by excetslre moisture and only
tllghtlmprovement In favored localities.
The chief objectionable feature was the
Urge amount of -jaln, occurring about
the 15th and 18th, though at many points
showers fell on every day of the week.
Parmeit hardly had any opportunity to
cultivate crops, which have again be
come very foul: and 1 betides the Wash
ing of the soil by heavy rains, bottom
lands have been flooded again, necessi
tating the general abandonment of low
land crops throughout many counties
The temperature averaged near the nor
mal or slightly below, snd there were no
extremes; the amount of sunshine was
deficient. .
General Injury hat resulted ' from th
abundant rainfall, which entirely pre
vented plowing and obliged many far
mers to. lay by crops while Very grassy.
On uplands and on stiff, impervious clay
soils somewhat better, conditions pre
vail, and where cultivated such crops
look well and promise fair yields. The
advantages of small farms, which are
more easily kept clear, appear - nnder
such adverse conditiona as have pre
vailed during the present season. In
few northeastern counties (Hertford,
Gates) and generally In the valleys west
of the Blue Ridge Mountains the condi
tions hare been favorable, though rain Is
needed In Swain, Cherokee and adjoin
Ing counties. ''
The general condition of cotton is not
promising any where in the State and
the abandonment of grassy nelds con
tinues; however, where properly cult!
rated cotton it doing fairly well, though
generally making too much weed, and
not fruiting rapidly; cotton it shedding
forms badly In many localities; in some
counties on the eastern slope of the Blue
Ridge the crop Seems to be blooming
and formlnit fruit more freely, but for
the Stale at large the concensus of opln
Ion la that the crop Is very inferior.
Much corn on bottom lands was de
al royed by freshets; on uplands the
crop looks fairly well, though aome
turning yellow; the weather has been
too wet to finish laying by in good or
der. Cutting and curing tobacco Is
progressing slowly, with many good
cures reported; It is large enough to cut
n central counties, which will be done
as soon at the rains cease; tome tobacco

Wheat snd spring oats in shock have
been injured by rains, and much of the
crop which was housed while damp bat

peeuats, Held peas and rice are doing
well, though the growth of grata and

encumbers are rotting; aome water'

Reason for Pardon. Why There are
Bore Criminals. Secretary Pearsall
i; Explains. Governor's Position.
Ritsmn, July 23.-5jow Walker at the
f sbroary -term, 1899 ot Iredell Superior
Court - was convicted of , larceny of
twenty-eight dollars worth of goods aud
sentenced to the County roada for four
years.""" He Was "pardoned by the Gov
ernor today. The. new pardon rules do
pot apply In this case as the application
has been on file since July 10th,. The
rules' only apply to applications made
from and after July 20th. The reasons
for the pardon of this man are sent out
In the following letter;
'This Is to say that Joe Walker, ool-
ored, has tuberculosis (consumption) and
is now in the county jail, brought there
eick from the county chain gang. His
disease Is contagious, and he Is, there
fore, a menace to the health of the other
prisoners.
Very respectfully, ,
Hehby F. Long, M D ,
Superintendant of Health Iredell Co."
The Board of County Commissioners
petitioned to the Governor for the par
don of this man. A letter was- also re
ceived from Messrs. Armfleld and Tur
ner urging the pardon of this person.
In their letter they state truthfully that
It would not be humane to keep a con
sumptive confined In jail this hot
weather.
Mr. P. M. Pearsall, the Private Secre
tary of the Governor, discussed at some
length the matter of pardons. "He said
the fact Is that the records show that
there are quite twice as many persons
In durance vile, that Is In the peniten
tiaries, county chain gangs and jaile,
now as tne re were, aay ten years ago.
This does not show by any means that
crime has doubled in the Slate. It is ex
plained by the fact that In ton years our
population has Increased a great deal,
the number of criminals therefore In
creased without the per cent necessarily
increasing.
Another reason explaining the In
crease In number is the lact mat ten
years ago there were very few Counties
wjtloh had the system of working con
vlcts on the county roads. By this sys
tern many are tent to the county roads
ho were heretofore fined and In some
cases iafprlsoned, In others with per
mission lo the County Commissioners to
hire out. Now all of these and, Indeed,
I expect more, aro sent to the roads,
Thus, as heretofore the said number of
persons subject to the pardoning power
of the Governor has very largely In
creased. The records of this office show
that there are more applications on tile
for pardons of persons sent to the county
roads than from the penitentiary
Sixty-two and one-half per cent of
those pardoned by the Governor since he
hu been In office were either In Jail or
on the county roads, and tblrty-sevsn
aud one-half per cent to the penitentiary
It very often happens as, say In the case
of Joe Walker, that the convict develops
consumption, or some other contagious
or Incurable disease, and the Governor
moved by t spirit of simple humanity
pardons the unfortunate. Upon a mo
men It reflection you can readily see that
th pardoning power of the Governor Is
the equity side of th criminal law
lknown to all student of history that
the hardships Incident to the ioflstlble
spplUatloa rule of law developed
great many year ago the equity system
which I now part of our clU Juris
prudence
no such system exist with rforac
