" j i rhirty Christmas Pardons Issued by Blease. Thirty prisoners held in the Sooth Carolina penitentiary received their iberty on Saturday at t ie hands of he Governor of South Carolina, when > record for pardons and paroles was aade. Briefly stated, there were 11 life* iine prisoners freed, nine of whom vere convicted on a charge of murier. One was convicted on the charge >f burglary and arson. Seven were :onvicted on a charge of manslaughter, the sentence 4 ranging from five to wenty-six years. Several had been onvicted on minor charges and one vas pardoned to restore citizenship. Eliminating the question of the moril right to grant pardons promiscously, ind viewing the act of the Governor of south Carolina from an economic itandpoint and considering the pardon 'onr,r^ fnr a H,iv made DC9sibie bv the VV V * V4 *V* ? ? | - w institution of ihe State, it means hat tliis State was deprived of the service of convicts aggregating 239 years. Chi9 is for unexpired terms. The estinate is made upon an average of 20 fears for a life-time prisoner. The I iverage length of service is probably onger. A liberal estimate of the valle received t>y tlie State for the service of a convict for one year is $100, vhich would make a total of $23,900, ost in labor. There was clemency granted in 30 ;ases, legal statisticians have estimated that it costs about $300 to convict a prisoner in this State. This would mean an additional $15,000 as court expenses incurred. Taking the sum total of the expenses and value to State, the Governor of South Carolina on Friday expended $38,000 of the taxpayers' money. Of the eleven lifeiime prisoners to eceive clemency at the hand9 of the jovernor, Samuel Reefe, the Chester jounty wife slayer, is probably the post noted prisoner. He was confided in November, 1899, for killing lis wife while she slept in his home. Governor Blease assumed office on ;he 17th of la9t January, and siDce hat time he has granted clemency in ncre th^n 320 cases, Ends Winter's Troubles. To many, winter is a season of ^rouble.
