Entered at the postoffice at Decatur, Indiana, as second-class mall matter Some of the republican papers, no-I tably among them the Marlon Chronicle, are trying hard to create a false impression of Governor Marshall on account of the pardons he has granted. The charge is freely made that he has issued pardons indiscriminately . and to individuals who ought not to be pardoned. Particular stress has | been laid upon the pardon of Joseph Roach of Terre Haute, who was serving a life sentence for murder. Investigation revealed the facts that I Roach had become the victim of the drug habit through the use of, medicines prescribed by a reputable physician. It was while crazed by drugs that the deed for which he was sentenced was committed. After he had served several years the late Warden Reid was convinced that his reformation was complete and recommended his pardon. This the government refused to grant, but gave him a short parole, which was afterward extended. The judge and prosecutor who tried him, the father of the young rran whom he shot, and many of the leading citizens of Terre Haute peti-1 tioned for his pardon, which, after it was satifactorily shown that he had fully reformed, was granted. The , tacts are all suppressed by the papers vhich have taken it upon themselves to villify the governor. But the people will learn to know the truth in the course of time and in the end Governor Marshall’s reputation will not suffer at the hands of his defamers. — Goshen Democrat.

Miss Anna Winnes this morning received word from Muncie concerning the condition of Mrs. Frank Mann, stating that her condition in general was about the sane, and still serious Last night she suffered a sinking spell, her heart being in a very weak condition, but she rallied, however. I-ate this morning a telegram was received, stating that she was very low- and i somewhat worse. Miss Winnes left on ■ the first train for that city and will, lend what assistance she can. if nec-1 cessary. Henry Weber, who met with an ac- i cident by coming into contact with an I automobile several weeks ago, is improving but very slowly, and is still quite serious. Close attention is needed before a cure will be brought about. Ernest Bloemekr of Preble township, who suffered a palalytic stroke a few days ego, remains in about the same condition, with but little signs of improvement. His advanced age of seventy-eight years is against him and his recovery doubtful. Henry Getting, who fell from a load of hay in Union township last week, is still suffering much pain, and owing to the heavy bandages which still surround him, not much can be told relative to his improvement. His recovery will be a rather slow one.
