The Question Of Pardon.
lie Sueur Sentinel

The St. Cloud Journnl- Press commenting
on the pardon by the President of Geo. II.
Lewis, of st. Paul, who was convicted last
October of robbing the mails while actingas
route agent on the st. Paul Il Duluth rail
road, says: "This thing is getting exceed
ingly monotonous It might be about as
we'll to close our courts. Criminals are
caught, tried and convicted, only that they
may be pardoned.'' Too true. This is the
third Presidential pardon of mail robbers in
this State within the past year, not to de-
tail the numerous pardons of other criminals
throughout the country. And Governor
Pillsbury is following Austin in the whole
sale pardoning of felons in this State. AS
the vicious and dishonest find that convic-
tions for high crimes are speedily followed
with pardons, crime must steadily increase.
The lax execution of our laws and the fire.

rapidly making this a nation of crime

on Vendors Oath ed, 253) and notes; Han
ley vs.. Aamer, Cowen, 718: Campbell vs.
Walker, Vesey, p. 67e. This disposes of
the appeal taken by the plaintiff.
A separate appeal was taken by defendant
Mobiles.
His answer which is claimed to be some
what in the nature of a cross bill, alleged an
arrangement by which certain parties inter
ested in the Randall mortgage agreed to re-
lease all their right to certain parcels Of
the property covered by the mortgage to
Mobiles in consideration that the Randall
note owned by Mobiles ''should be cancelled
and eliminated from the operation OF the
mortgage" The answer alleged the execu-
ton of certain deeds under this arrange
ment to the delivery of which it claimed that
Mobiles was entitled to have the parcels of
land above mentioned adjudged to be his in
fee simple, and that he was further entitled
to an account and payment over of certain
rents of said parcels. The court
found facts relating to the alleged
arrangement, and to what was done under
it otherwise than as alleged in the answer,
and further as conclusion of law, found
that Mobiles was not entitled to the specific
property claimed in his answer nor to de-
livery of the deeds referred to in his an
swer.
Such was the issue raised by his answer
and tried, and determined by the court below.
This determination we see no reason for dis
turbing. The findings of fact cannot be
questioned, as none of the evidence bearing
upon them is before US, while the findings
! of law appear to US to be entirely correct.
The claim made in this court with reference
to the purchases made by Hart by Lash, Tur-
rell, Bidwell and Burwell (being substantially
that made by the plaintiff with regard to the
same purchases) and the manner in which
they should be treated was not within the
issue made below by Nobles' answer, and as
respects Mobiles was not submitted to or
tried, or passed upon by the court below.
| It follows that Mobiles cannot be heard to
make it here.
We are not, however, to be understood as
asserting that he or his successor in interest
can now be heard to make it anywhere.
The judgment is affirmed,

Mr.. Eugene Hale's Congressional Re
publican Campaign Committee has not
succeeded in securing money from the
Federal officials in Washington as ra-
pidly IS they expected, and have recent,
~ addressed a circular to these. officials,
stating that the committee know they
are very busy in the day time, and to
give theman opportunity to respond to
the invitation to, contribute to campaign
purposes; the committee viii keep their
rooms open until eleven o'clock at night.
This last circular shows the committee
sto!be determined to have the money
asked for, if perseverance will secure it,
and justifes the suspicion that ME-
Hayes and his administration are con-
:piyingsat this mode of raising money,
for ifthey do not approve it, the time
has come when they should say 10 the
government employees that they are at
liberty to refuse to contribute TO this
committee, and that they shall not lose
their positions ifthey do not subscribe.

THE CIVIL SERVICE ORDER.

The President in issuing bis civil SER
vice order soon after his Inauguration,
inspired the country with the hope that
it was possible that although the present
administration had been inaugurated
through fraud, yet it was the intention
to, in measure, atone for the crime
against good government which the Re
publican party perpetrated to continue
itself in power, by giving to the coun-
try term ofgenuine political reforma-
ton. However we'll founded these
hopes may have appeared at the begin
ming, it will hardly be contended now
that they were founded upon anything
more substantial than an illusion intend
ed to distract the public mind from the
contemplation of the frauds which se-
cured the promotion of the present ad-
ministration. In nothing except words
has there been any indication of reform,
and the celebrated cival service order,
which proposed to prohibit Federal Off
cials from engaging in, or even partici-
pating in party politics, has section by
section been explained SO as to allow
contributions from Federal officials, and
even membership of primary organiza-
tions and State Conventions. The order
appears to have no meaning. The re-
cent circulars of the Republican cam
paign. committee have not secured con-
tributions from many Federal officials
through this State, and the result is, that
in some instances the amount of work
required of these officials has been in
creased, and the inquiry suggests itself,
does this mean pay up orquitf 1t has
been said by the President that Federal
officers have the right to give their
money for campaign purposes ifthey
wish, and there are many who would
like to know ifthey are to enjoy the
equal privilege of Withholding it if they
desire. The President and the heads Of
departments should settle the civil ser
vice question BY saying definitely wheth-
or officers are to retain their positions on
account of.political services or for their
competency and fitness: They have said
that their appointees have the right to
give money if they wish. Why do they
not say also that they have the right to
refuse if they please, and that they shall
not be disturbed in their Offices if they
see fit to keep their money. The ad,
,ministration should answer this question
squarely, or it will be right and proper
for the country to conclude that it is in
league with the Congressional Committee
to levy large contributions from govern
ment officials for campaign, fund.
