AN INNOCENT MAN IN PRISON.

A pardon has been issued by Gov.
Taylor, of Wisconsin, to James B. Car
ter, who has spent over seven years in
Waupun on life-sentence for murder,
of which he was convicted largely on
his own admission, at the Lacrosse
County Court in 1867, but of which, it
now appears, he was innocent. He was
living with shoemaker named Ira B.
Wheeler, in Pepin County. He and
his wife differed, and she was regarded
as quite loose. Quarreling about some
shoe-pegs she brushed over with her
dress while he was at work, she picked
up the Ratchet, struck him in the head
and killed him. Carter, horror struck,
saw the deed, and attempted to fly, but
threats of accusing him of the murder,
and persuasion, induced him to stay
and help hide the body. Suspicion was
aroused. and both we're arrested. On
the plea that by confessing the guilt
himself he could secure Mrs. Wheeler's
discharge, and then her testimony with
other influences, could be usedto secure
his release, he was induced by counsel
to admit the crime. Both, however,
were convicted. The woman's discharge
was secured by writ of error on tech
meal grounds, and Garter sent to State
Prison. His brother has persistently
labored to prove Carter innocent and
secure his release. and recently left for
Waupun with free pardon granted by
the Executive on mass of documents
showing the above facts, the mans good
conduct in prison, etc The official
xatement of the reasons for the pardon
relates that the record showed the man
was made victim of thewoman Wheel
er and her friends, and pardon is recon-
mended among others by the Judge who
sentenced him, the District Attorney
who prosecuted, and five of the jurors,
several of the witnesses for the state,
county officials, and nearly 600 citizens
of Pepin.

A CORRECT VIEW.

The Chicago Tribune. to our mind.
represents the true position OF an indie
pendent Republican journal. upon the
Louisiana business. We have conten-
ded that the reports Of every Congress-
ional Committee which has thus far re-
ported upon the Kellogg administration.
have failed to show that he held his Of
Ace by any other tenure than the decis-
ion Of q corrupt judge backed by the
power Of Federal bayonets. We have ro-
psatsdly said that Congress could. in
justice TO the people Of that State. do
nsthing less than order q new election,
and that neglect was criminal. In our
Judgment. the President was powerless
to remedy the evil. and the response
bility rests with Congress alone. The
Tribune in commenting upon this
matter. utters our views in the follow
ing: "we think the Republicans, as a
party. have carried Kellogg and his as
sociates long enough; they have kept
him in power by force for two years.
against tho solemn judgment OF the In
vestigsting Committee OF Republican
Senators that he wa q usurper. Be
hind that judgment the Republican
party cannot % so, particularly when
the people Of the State have affirmed 1t
by q late vote that is too decisive to be
questioned. One Of two things should
be done; either order q new election for
Governor. or let the party which carried
the late election govern the State, even
IL Kellogg loses an Office which he cam
not hold an hour save by the aid OF the
Federal army and navy"
