The weekly democratic statesman. [volume] (Austin, Tex.) 1871-1883, 1873-10-30

The Radical papers of Texas now say
that Governor Davis has not pardoned Ea-
tanta and Big Tree. but only parolled them.
How is this7 There is no legal authority
for turning criminals loose except by par
don. The Governor has no right to let an
unpardoned murderer go beyond the limits
Of the State and out Of its jurisdiction.
What would be thought of him if he should
take the word Of a white murderer in the
Penitentiary, and let him 60 out Of the
State on a verbal understanding that if he
killed another man or misbehayed in any
way, he would come back and deliver him
self up, or that the Governor might catch
him II he cOuIdl Does not everybody see
the unlawfulness as well as the ridiculous
ness Of such proceedingi But the case
in question is still worse than the one sup
posed. These murderers arc savages of the
most cruel aud unreliable natures, who
would boot at the idea Of returning to the
Peaitentiary to ''pull sticks"
They deem themselves perfectly free, as
tlty are IN TACT, Nuctuel tue 0OfeIlDF nds
pardoned them or not They will never
enter Texas again unless to butcher more
men, women and children and adorn them
selves with fresh scalps, and Governor Davis
knew this well, when, without authority of
law and in defiance Of public opinion, he
turned them loose to go back to their war
like and irritatea tribe And it will take
more than Governor Davis and his whole
military staff and such State militia
as he can call out, to recatch these
bloody warriors. Besides, should he at
tempt anything of the kind, he would be
stopped by the General Government. He
knows this, too very well, and he knew it
when he gave up the savage chiefs. And
who believes that Grant and the QualIers
would ever recapture Satanic and Big Tree
and deliver them again to the Texas author
tiles? No man with an ounce of brains.
The whole thing has been deception,
pretence and farce. If Governor Davis
has turned loose these chiefs without
pardon, he is liable to impeachment, as soon
as the next Legislature meets, and ought to
be promptly tried, convicted and removed
from Office.
