The Pard0ning Power.

a Columbia dispatch to tho New
York Uc,W1d ccmsurcs Governor IIa-
good for a too liberal exercise OF cx-
rcntivc clcmcncy. Tho caso Of Neil
Blair, lhc inulatto who killed = com
panion While in III Of bcastly intoxi-
cation, and whose sentence Of death
has been commuIcd to imprisonment
for life by Governor llagood, after
seven r">pi!ra by other Governors, is
one OF The instances given. Two other
eases arc given, and the correspondent
says:
.t;ovcrnor lIagool has already sig
nali"cd his administration by granting
barge number of pnrdons and COM
mutations, some of which nrc very
objectionable 10 thc communities from
which the partoncd criminals come
and to which they will return. An
effort will be made al the next meeting
of the General Assembly to divcst tho
governor ct the pardonnG power and
place it with II Board of pardOns.
There can bc no doubt that This power
has been abused frequently in South
Carolina daring the past few years.
Without denying the correctness Of
the charge that there has bccn too
much clcmrncy in the past, VIC vcn-
tltrc the assertion TINT Governor IIa-
good had substantial reasons for tho
exercise Of cicmcncy in the cases re-
fcrrcd to. lie is not Il man to be swaycd
by maudlin sentiment, and we should
rather Judge that his course would
generally be To let Justice he done
though the heavens fall and though
every criminal in the State got his
neck cracked. The mere fact that
Blair had been rcspilcd seven times
hy othcr Governors Is strong cause for
belief that there must be mitigating
circumstances In his favor. After all,
imprisonment for life is not II great
deal better than short sllrilt and Il
tight rope. II is difficult to say whcth-
CT II Bonr.l Of Purdons would act more
judiciously than IL Governor would.
Doubtless the Governor would be GLAD
to get rid Of the unpleasant duty Of
virtually passing sentence on the con-
dcmnod criminal. We see no reason
to change tho law rs il now stunds.

REG ULdTIN<1 RAILROADS..

Public Right and K"iIrond Charges.-A Ma
| tionai CoinInlssien RECON- n,cndcd by the
Now York Chn'nbsr OF CoDmorce.
New ,I0RK, January CAT u meet
ing Of the Chamber Of Commerce to.
day tho special committee on railroad
transportation submitted long report
on the railroad problem, which was
adopted. IL sets forth the importance
Of proper legislation to regulate rail
road charges; discusses the Two rail
road bills now before Congress, known
ns tho Reagan bill aud tho Henderson,
bill, and urges the necessity Of cncOur-
aging competition and preventing tho
organization OF pools and combina-
tons. 1t shows that M advance in
freight rates Of five cents per hundred
pounds upon the grain crop of the
West Is equivalent to un export tax
OF fscvcnty-iivo million dollars, which
comes out Of the pockets of producers.
In conclusion, the committee submit
the following resolution:
ReSolrcd, That the public welfare
urgently demands that ailc commerce
by railroads should be controlled and
regulated; that such regulation should
take he form Of: first, positive laws,
defining public rights; and, second Il
supervision by All executive power, TO
sec that these laws are carried into
effect; that with Interstate commerce
these laws nnd railroad provided by
Congress, and for those railroads cx-
chsivcly within the jurisdiction Of u
state, similar action should bc taken
by the Legislature OF that State.
RrSo/rcd, That il the measures now
pending in Congress for tho regulation
OF Interstate Commerce, the bill
known us the Reagan bill, in the opin-
ion of this Chamber, is the ono best
cnlcu lated to protect public interest,
and thnt it should become Il law with,
out unnecessary delay.
Hc II .fHfihcr rcSOiUcd. Thnt m adj
dilionnl aud separate bill, not incom.
sistcnt with The Reagan bill, should be
passed providing National Board of
Railroad commissioners, to SEQ that
all laws of the United States relating
to rnilroads arc dG y executed, and
generally to supervise the operation Of
Interstate railroads.
