THE Ford brothers who killed Jesse
james, the prince Of outlaws, have
been tried, found guilty, and sen
tenced to be hung on the 10th ofMay;
but Governor Crittendcn stepped in
and granted them an unconditional
pardon. II was at the governors in
stance that Jesse James was captured
..'alive or dead" The Ford's preferred
to kill the outlaw instead of attempt
ing his capture alive. This is
severe strain upon an executives pc
rogative, but undoubtedly the nature
of the case demanded heroic action.
But Jesse James had large follow
ingiia the State of Missouri, and it
begins TO look as though this episode
would make two political parties in
the State, James and an anti-James
party or rather one party siding with
thieves and murderers, and the other
in favor Of law and order. This, per-
haps is a broad way of stating it, but
the question resolves itself to this at
last Wayren Ledger. The Ledger's
ideas on this subject are among the
most sensible we have yet seen. The
idea Of liOnizing a cut-throat like
James is wicked in the extreme.

these counties the bosses are the Re
publican people. They have taken
this matter in hand and propose to be
heard. They say we will nominate
this man who has led blameless life,
whose ability is unquestioned, who left
a leg upon the field Of battle as test
Of bis patriotism, and then we will see
how many of the citizens of the old
keystone State will vote to strike him
down. How many will listen to the
yelpings of the Democratic ours and
their guerilla allies, and vote to turn
over to Democratic hands the State
Government and the Legislature. We
might as we'll meet the issue now. If
we cannot win with such candidate,
who will have $4,000 Grand Army
meu to strip for the fight in his behalf,
who will have thousands upon
thousands of those who respect the
ordinances of the Sabbath and the
Christian religion to support him
regardless of politics, then we cannot
with any. We accept the situation.

GENERAL JAMES A. BEAVER.

-Four years ago the gentleman whose
name heads this article was promi.
nently mentioned as candidate for
Governor. He was believed by many
TO be the coming man. But he was
not pressed, and Gov. Hoyt carried
pf the prize. From that day, how.
ever, to the present, he has been
looked upon by Republicans in all
parts Of the State, as the probable sue
cessor Of the present incumbent. His
ability as a lawyer, his splendid
record as soldier, hia high moral
character, all tended to render him an
xceedingly available candidate for
The highest office in the gift of the
people Of Pennsylvania. This has also
1cen understood by the Democratic
party, and not being able to discover
anything in his character which would
prove distasteful to the people, they
have raised the cry that he is candi-
late of the bosses. We concede that
70 this position they come nearer to
:he truth than they usually do. The
bosses are undoubtedly bringing about
ais nomination, for in the twenty-eight
counties which have chosen delegates
Pc is the unqualified choice of the del
sates Of at least tweniy.four. In

AN OPEN LETTER.
To WoIfe's First Lieutenant from
General Beavers Home.

EbLrON1b, A. april ~, 1907.
1. d. MCKEE, Esq,
Chairman State Committee, Citizens
Republican association, Philadelphia.
DEAR SIR: Your favor of the 9th
instant did not reach me promptly,
owing to my absence from home.
You frankly ask mo as to the prob.
abilities of my taking part with your
political association in the next cam.
paign in our State, and as to "my
vie'cs alpon the probable issues to be
raised this fall against any nomination
ttGt may be made by Cameron & Co."
So far as we are true Republicans,
think it would be serious mistake to
make up our minds to oppose candi-
dates or nominees for office simply
because Mr. Cameron should happeE
to favor good men.
Take, tor example, the popular
indications pointing to the nomination
of General James A. Beaver for Gov.
ernor-a gentleman of eminent fitness,
and justly deserving all the honors
that the people of this Commonwealth
can ever bestow-do you for moment
think that we should forget our duty
to party and to the country because it
is given out that Mr.. Cameron, with
thousands of others, also fayors his
nomination.
And in this connection, from my
personal knowledge of General
Beaver, you may accept my assuran.
ces that when he becomes Governor of
Pennsylvania he will represent the
entire Republican party, and no
faction of it.
Not i'll twenty years has any candi-
date for the Office of Governor in our
State been so clearly indicated by the
people as that of General Beaver at
the present time. l doubt if any party
could, or would dare, defeat his NOM
ination, and this simply because the
people who compose the Republican
party are moving in his behalf. And
would you, therefore, deem it wise that
we should oppose him?
Take the list of eminent and honor
able names suggested for the Supreme
bench, shall it be a political crime
against their names that Mr.. Cameron
also makes choice of one or other of
those This would not be political
reform, bat political madness rather.
When we have, as citizens, done all
in our power faithfully and we'll to
name the best men for Office, and voted
for them, we have, as 1 think, dis.
charged our full political duty. Do
what we may, evil practices will spring
up, aud when, from time to time, these
become unbearable, the people will
arise in their might and their integrity
and overthrow them.
Politics has become q high art and
the professionals in it shrewd and
wary, and to counteract mischievous
work we must learn their skill and
with it overthrow those who do evil.
To make orr wo.k efficient we must
remain in the party to help purify and
elevate it, and not, by decrying,
attempt to destroy. Our work must
not be spasmOdic, but with constant
vigilance working together for good.
The grandeur of the achievements
of our party in the past, its record
upon the history Of our country, my
duty and my honor impel me to work
brayely on within the ranks, hoping
for the best, and tEust you, too, and
your organization may be found there
