THE supreme court of Iowa has de-
cided that conditional pardon by the
governor OF that state is legal. He had
released a man from state prison whose
sentence was originally for 10 years, OH
three conditions: 1, that the prisoner
should refrain from Intoxicating drinks /;
2, that he should exert himself for the
support of his mother and sister 3. that
lie should not be convicted during the
tenn of his sentence of any criminal Or
tense. The prisoner got drunk, and was
arrested and returned TO the state prison
by order of the governor. He sought re-
lease under writ of hdbeas corpus, but
i'm vain. IL is th,r tore settled that
conditional pardons are legitimate ex-
ercise OF the pardOning power i'll Iowa.
They have often been granted in this
state, and the decision is therefore OF
some importance here.
