Litle Rock, Ark., December 2^.? Characterizing- the Arkansas penitentiary under' the lease system as "a burning, seething hell, consuming human beings," who are "being fed into it in a manner which results in nothing but making fortunes for contractors," Governor George W. Donaghey today isued a lengthy statement in defence of his action last Monday in issuing pardons to 316 State convicts. Sharp criticism of the Governor's action from State officials and citizens had previously; drawn from the F^xecutive the statement that 'all ...v.,. a- _i?i:_i r nmou *yiiv/ tui: ttuuiiMiint'iii Ul the inhuman convict system, which we now have in Arkansas, are, in my -union, bound in the direction of that place spoken of by Governor Blease in connection with the Constitution of his State, and it is my belief they are going to land there in spite of every effort of mine to prevent them doing so." Further criticism of the Governor's course resulted in another statement today. According to a newspaper compilation, based on the State records, 43 of those pardoned by Governor Donaghey were convicted of murder or man-slaughter; one hundred and eleven grand larceny, twenty-six assault to kill an .dsixty-six of crimes ranging from hog-stealing to bigamy. National Corn Exposition. Columbia, S. C., Dec. 21.?From three thousand miles acros the continent there will be brought to the Fifth National Corn Exposition here next month an exhibit in which com will not be featured. This exhibit will come from the agricultural experiment station in the State of Washington, and among other things, will feature modern methods in the growing, handling, packing and marketing of fruit, including a demonstration of the penetration system of spraying; the plant breeding work at the station in wheat, oats and barley; and some of the work on moisture requirements of crops. This exhibit is a striking illustration of the fact that the National t Corn Exposition is not, strict'/ speaking, a Corn exposition, but deals fundamentally and educationally with all phases of agriculture, demonstrating graphically the results of experimental and research work of various State agricultural institutions, the Federal department of agriculture, and other agencies in rural improvement work. T>. i Exposition will open tef'january 27th. The Washington exhibit is being prepared under the supervision of Mr. R. W. Thatcher, director of the experiment station. Mr. Thatcher is president of the American Society of Agronomy. He is being assisted in making up this exhibit by Mr. Alex Carlyle, station cerealist, and Mr. J. L. Dumas, who is a member of the extension force of the college, a director of the National Apple Show, a former president of the State Horticultural Society. The two last named gentlemen will accompany the exhibto the Exposition, to demonstrate it nn/1 nvrvlotn f r\ o 1 1 lrl pifnoinf o uuu QApiaui tu an viaiwio puiuto ui interest and value. DR. J. W.
