MERCY TO CRIMINALS.

Our San Francisco contemporary, the
Alta, thinks the Governor should commute
the sentence of death passed upon Drager,
one Of the Lowell murderers, to imprison-
ment for life, on the ground stated by De-
tective Hume, that Drager's testimony
gave the first and only clue to the crime,
and led to the convictions secured. The
reason advanced is, that revealing
crime by conspirator or a participant
should beencouraged as deterrent agency,
because the fear of betrayal by allies is
great restraint upon the confirmed crimi
nal. Without discussing the principle in
yolved, and which we do not question, it
should be stated that the Aha reaches its
conclusion from mistaken premises. Drager
did not at any time confess to the murder.
On the contrary, he has strenuously in
sisted that he did not aid in it, and knew
nothing of it, though it is proven he was
an accomplce after the fact" The truth
is, and which Mr.. Hume has misappre-
hended, that at no time was any promise
of clemency made to Drager or either of
the other murderers. His testimony, or
statement, like all the others, was varied,
contradictory and unreliable, and was
voluntary. He, as were the others, was
told that any statement he made might be
used against him. Moreover, It was be-
yond all question established on the trial
that Drager's statements we're false in all
material matters, and there was also ire
futable evidence of conspiracy by the
three; as for instance, their prior state
ments before going to the Lowell farm /;
and again, the testimony of a wholly dis
interested witness, that several hours after
the murder the three men were seen upon
the Lowell premises together, and within
few feet of the body of the victim, though
Drager insisted that he was not present,
but after the killing 6ed and concealed
himself. If the doctrine contended for is
to be applied to the case in question, then
the man who dld the killing and yolun-
tarily confessed the crime, ought TO be
pardoned. 1t follows that if the state
ment of the only man who confesses, and
who says he killed Lowell, has virtue suf-
fcient 20 make him worthy of Executive
clemency, it ought also.to have sufficient
weight to secure the discharge of the
other two, whom he declares are innocent.
That is to say, if the criminals word who
reveals should insure him his life, it would

THE dispatches from Paris yesterday
were dramatically sensational. The story
runs that Premier Floquet had arranged
for the arrest of General Boulanger and
his friends on Sunday, on the occasion Of
the demonstration at the grave of Baudin.
The rumor went to the extent of giving
wings to the canard that even the cells for
the anticipated prisoners had been pre-
pared, but the alleged fact becoming
known, the Minister was obliged to aban-
don the scheme. There is probably not
one word of truth in the story. 1t is more
than likely that Boulanger's friends
evolved the thing from their fancy for the
express purpose of giving new and sensa-
tional importance to Boulanger. The
pompous man lives upon his nerves; if he
is not posing before the public and culver
ing upon the edge of sensationalism, he is
unhappy. There was danger of France
forgetting him, and of his settling down
into the groove of an ordinary, and very
ordinary, Deputy. Something had to be
done to renew public interest in him,
hence the absurd fiction concerning his
proposed arrest. Floquet is no fool; he is
far-seeing, shrewd and able politician,
and statesman of experience and discre-
tion. He does not plot for the arrest OF
men for offenses not yet committed; nor is
he tyrant, or possessed Of the power Of
one, even if he desired to be tyran nous.
He has a strong majority in the Chambers,
and has no reason whatever to fear any
political or other assault from the direction
of the Boulangerists.
Sacramento daily record-union., 1888-11-30

be parody upon justice to execute his
confederates, whom in the same breath he
insists did not participate in the killing,
but under his threat aided him in conceal
ing the body, and shared in the theft that
followed. The Alta will readily see the
illogical character of adopting a policy
such as that. in order to incite men to give
up guilty secrets. In short, the theory of
the AIta, applied in the Lowell case, would
save from the extreme penalty of the law
all three murderers, and thus encourage
rather than prevent crime.
Sacramento daily record-union., 1888-11-30
THE HOPE oF MURpERERs.

In declining to commute the death
sentence of certain murderers convicted
very recently, Governor Waterman has
taken occasion to administer rebuke
to a custom-it is quite entitled to the
designation-that has grown up of saying
to prisoners, on being sentenced to death,
that the only hope remaining to them is
dependent upon the Executive of the
State. Sometimes it is an indiscreet or too
sympathetic Judge who speaks thus to the
condemned, sometimes it is the press,
which, perhaps, fancies there is news quail
ity in the expression. In either case it is
indefensible, since it implies that there is
some hope, and that there is reason for
it, even if it be nothing more than SYM
pathetic one. Whenever a Court so far
forgets itself as to cast a doubt upon the
wisdom and Justice of the result reached at
its own bar, by suggesting to the con-
demned, without specific and strong rea-
son, that the Judgment of the tribunal of
the law may be undone by the interposi-
ton of the Executive, and that there is in
that direction hope for the criminal, 1t
does that which deserves far more severe
rebuke than that just administered. 1t is
not the office of Judge to intimate that
the life of the criminal he has sentenced
ought to be spared. If he has reason to
think so, he should at once and without
suggestion communicate the reason to the
officer empowered to pardon. There is no
possibility of shifting responsibility from
judicial to executive shoulders in capital
cases, except where there is discovery, after
legal exhaustion, of reliable new and ma
terial testimony raising a serious doubt as
to guilt. But the suggestion to the con-
demned to apply for pardon is never neces-
sary. He and his friends know of his
right of petition and are not slow to avail
of it. To add to it the judicial suggestion
is gratuitous interference with jury's YER
dict and the Executives prerogative, un-
called for under any circumstances, inde
fensible and either a sign of judicial limp
ness that does discredit to the bench, or is
uttered thoughtlessly and because others
have used the formula to soften the judi
cial rigor of sentence. The Governor has
very properly entered his protest against
the Judiciary indulging in the privilege
Of thus addressing the condemned. 1t is
very difficult already to secure con-
victions, still more so to make punishment
certain, without unnecessarily exciting the
hope Of the guilty that in the Executive
OF the State he may find that which a jury
of his countrymen, upon their oaths de-
clared he was not entitled to.

HE TOOK THE WRONG MEDICINE.

Robert Stewart, OF Petaluma, recently had
queer experience. He writes:
'Carbuncles and boils afflicted my face and
neck for weeks. Finally procured q bottle
of one OF the leading sdrsaparillas. To my
surprise it made matters worse. This made
me lose faith in sarsaparillas, but seeing a
statement that joys Vegetable SarsapariIla
dried up boils and face eruptions instead Of
forcing more ont as the potash sarsaparillas
do, bought bottle. The effect was aston
ishing. The hecerbuneles and boils began to dry
up, and in two weeks my face was as well and
smooth as ever. Ny brother also took bottle
with the same benefit. ROBERT STEWART,
''Petaluma, Cal.'
[Explanatory Note-The mineral iodide of
potash, which is the basis OF nearly all other
sarsaparillas, attacks the blood direct, hence
forces impurities through the skin, creating
more boils and pimples. Joys Vegetable Sar-
saparilla acts oppositely. Its vegetable alter
atives stimulate the various secretive organs
and thus eliminate all impurities through the
natural channels, hence dries up pimples and
skin eruptions at once. The above testimon-
ial is case in point ]
