Gus and kind act Of your part, en- act
that ought and shoald be appFecistea
BY every one.
But, II the tEfeution Of this is that
the actioa Of The district court Of Sa-
line county % the judge thereof Ia the
trial Of the cases mentioned by the
petitioners De brought before You for
review or for Investigation and judy
ment thereon, feel in duty bound to
most respectfully protest against such
q course. @
ASH understand our form Of gov
eminent the executive, the legisla-
tive and the judicial are coordinate
branches Of gOvernment, independent
Of and within their oWn spheres, In
no wise directly responsible 70 each
other.
But, my dear Governor, as every
official IS we'll as citizen is presumed
70 set from just aud proper motives,
until the contrary clearly appears, /
most certainly stall and gladly do
give 10 you the beaefit Of this pre-
sumption and therefore attribute your
action 20 the fFst motive suggested.
Thia therefore calls simply for an
acknowledgment Of your personal
kindness which / desire hereby to
make.
But, that theirs may seem 10 be no
stubborness or hanging back between
the departments Of gOTernment, but q
full and manifest interest In each TO
assist the other, and to help all on to
Just and correct results 10 may be
nothing more than proper, nor more
than you may expect fOr me 10 say
that / have carefully read the copy OF
the petition SO handed 90 me, and 50
far as it states improper action OF I'm
putes improper motives to the Judge
Of said District court, / wish TO en-
phatieally deny Il.
see said petition Is signed only by
the petitioners themselves. Mark
you, do not wish here 10 blame or TO
reflect upon them for the erroneous
allegations OF their paper, for think
they have only come TO such conelu-
siOns by reason Of the err0ne0ds adj
vice and prejudiced dispositions Of
Others who, perhaps. are More learned
In the law than they.
Thanking you again for your kind
ness, and asking n other persons shall
subscribe by oath or otherwise 70 the
allegations Of said petition having
reference to myself, that these be for
wsrded TO me also and that by the
chief officers OF the Law thus working
kindly together, the highest achieve
ments possible under our beneheent
institutions MAY be attained.

EXECUTIVE DEPARTafENF.
TOpeka. June 81 1884

Hon. j. q. MOhleF, and Hon. T. F..
Carver, Sdtind, Kansas.
Gentlemen I'll have given the ap-
plication for pardon, In the case Of
Messrs. Vim. H. Sweeney, GustaVe
Behr, Jacob Mugler, Peter Mugler,
VIM. HuebneF, and j. H. LHdes care
full consideration and examination,
and / am constrained 20 say after the
examination Of the petitions and pa
peFs I'm the case that Tam satisfied
that full pardOns. ought TO be issued
to the six men imprisoned.
It Is not Necessary that should
give In detail my reasons therefor,
but simply state the conclusions at
which / arrive from q full and care
full examination OF the testimony,
records, letters, affidavits and papers
submitted.
First, The pardnns are asked for by
q large number. about one thousand,
Of the respectable citizens and tax
payers Of Saline county where the
prosecutions were carried on.
Second, The evidence presented
shows that parties who had formed
and expressed opinions and were in-
eligible by law were by the prosecu-
ton and the assent Of the judge kept
on the juries.
Third, The evidence shows that the
juries were packed and organized by
the prosecuting attorneys with the
aid Of the judge 80 as to prevent q
fair, honest and impartial trial and to
secure a conviction.
Fourth, The evidence shows that
the parties had no fair, honest or
impartial trial, aud that their legal
rights were Intentionally ignored and
dlsregarded both by the prosecution
and the judge.
1t is not necessary that I should re-
capitulate the evidence aud refer to
the testimony TO sustain the foregoing
proposition as stated, but a full and
fair investigation Of the papers sub
mitted will convince any one that
there can be no doubt about their
truth. This being the case feel that
Ii Is my duty to interpOse the execu-
tive power of the State to protect
these individuals.
While 1t ls argued, and with per-
feet propriety, that those who violate
law should be punished, that we
should all aid in securing the enforce
ment Of the law, II does not lay in the
mouth of those who argue IN favor Of
the enforcement Of the law to demand
that the legal and constitutional rights
OF the individuals should be violated
by the courts, nor does it follow that
the courts In their execution Of the
Law have the right 10 60 beyond the
commission Of the crime alleged
against the person on trial and COM
init even q greater crime by destroy

that the Democratic platform is Free

Up here the brethren arc not so previous
on that question. They cover up the lex
