MISS, SATURDAY, AUGUST 1892


This paper notes with pleasure. the
recommendation Of divers journals that
Col: W. L. Hemingway, ex-treasurer
of this State, be pardoned. His ia a
case without precedent. After an OK.
naustlve investigation backed by all
the powers OF the State, Jurors who
convicted him certified in these words:
! We, the undersigned Jurors, who sat ON the
ttl tfiai 0l ". L. Hemingway. think 1t due to
on our view Of the instructions that the law
required him to explain satisfactorily the
discrepancy between the cash turned over
70 ms successor, and the balance his books
VIE DO NOT RECOGNIZES THAT TH1R1 WAS ANY
PROOF BEFORE Us OF ANY ACT OF FEr.ONEOUs
CONVERSION BY HIN or THE PUBLIC MONIES
In this connection the able Circuit
Judge who presided at his trial, Hon.
IJ.B. Chrisman, said this to him in
pronouncing sentence:
There Is no EVIDENCE in this case as to
what became Of the money which the Jury
a0und to be missing from the treasury.
Ihere IS no EVIDENCE In the record to show
that ANY PART Or IT was converted by you to
BY you for your @ inaividaai idpsi[s 1se. e expended
1t seems plain that the conviction
was on the technical ground that the
books showed balance which was not
IN the vaults. 1t remains also a fact
that very large ahd intelligent class
OF the people of the State believe in his
innocence. Good character is, or
should, be worth q great deal in free
country, where the people govern
themselves, because here all good gov
ernment depends on the the good char
acter OF its people, aud no man in our
borders can show q better character
than the late Treasurer.
Aside from all this, the humiliation
OF conviction and Incarceration to him,
is equal in it's punishment of many
years to one of the criminal class, to
whom the mere physical suffering of
Imprisonment and labor constitute the
only punishment, and anything like
sensibility and shame, or humiliation
Is not a factor. If there has been any
violation Of the criminal law by him,
there has been ample vindication, and,
certainly, his large family deserve
some consideration from right think
ing men, who must see and do see that
no public interest car be subserved by
his longer Imprisonment, and the pro-
motion Of the interest Of society is the
only justification Of human punishment.
In our opinion he ought to be pardoned
and we believe his pardon would be ap-
proved and rejoiced at by a large
majority Of the people Of the State, and
80 we are pleased onote and endorse
the recommendation Of Executive Glenn

DEATH ENDED THE CASE.

OTTAWA. ILL.,, Nov. 1.-The Supreme Court
has rendered a decision in the O'Sullivan
case. denying the application of the attor-
ney for a new trial This motion has been
denied by the court on the ground that q
Judgment might well be entered now as
prior to the death of O'Sulliyan. as there is
no authority in common law for the prose-
cution OF writ OF error by the represent
atives of a deceased person upon a iudg-
ment rendered against the deceased in life
under indictment for felony. Continuing
the court says: IF this motion shall be
granted we must either affirm the judgement
and order IL 60 be executed or reverse il
and arrest it and order "a new trial for the
defendant. But In either case the order can
be effctlve only uDon the assumption that
some one representing or standing In the
place of the dead man can be affected by IL.
A Judgment cannot be enforced when the
only subject matter upon which it can OPP
crate has ceased TO exist. When the de-
fendant ordered TO he punished is dead.
the execution of the order is absolutely ar
rested. For the future it is as entirely q
