NO CLEMENCY FOR CRIME.

1t seems to be taken for granted that
clemency in our criminal Jurisprudence
and administration is wise and proper,
and that It should be exercised ad
libitum Cor with the rarest exceptions)
by the executive power OF the Com
monwealth. At any rate, that is the
view our constitution takes of the
subject, and it is very fully carried out
in practice.-insomuch that, whether
regarded as n duty or n privilege of the
Governor, his time is largely ergrossed
in hearing appeals. reading petitions
examining pleas and evidence, and con-
sidering the law, &c. in behalf of the
pardon, or Communication of sentence, of
this, that, or the other criminal; and
still they come. and still the crowd Of
applicants grows. and still is the bur-
den on the shoulders of the Governor
Increased; and he has TO cry for relief
or help. and n Board of Pardons or
Clcmency is proposed.
Better first consider whether justice
should be thwarted by clcmency in
dealing with crime and criminals. or
not. Is not this provision for executive
clemency an additional inducemcnt to
the violation of law? There is one eX-
ample in our own experience, full of OBJ
ject-lessons. that should teach us how
the best of laws may be practically
rendered null and void by placing the
power somewhere to mitigate or re-
move their penalties. The anti duclling-
lew. with its political disabilities, was
practically perfect, but for the power
vested in the General Assembly to re-
move these disabilities. The power to
do anything naturally compels, per-
suades. or leads 10 the exercise OF 1t.
and the thing is done. In fact, the
removal of disabilities added another
grace to the attractions of duelline.
through the greater notoriety it gave
the parties, and the sense that they had
had their names inscribed in the ar
chives OF the State as those of citizens
too able to be excluded from public
service.

(, If an alleged criminal has been i'm
properly convicted, or too heavily nun-
1shed. or IS in anywlse unjustly dealt
with in the amount of his fine. or term

justice. and, of course, the power to

1t should be placed in the hands of tho
courts. and administered fairly TO all.
according to law and not made the sub

Unless the constitution be amended
we cannot see in what way n Board Of
Clemency can relieve him. 1t may an

the necessity he will be under to ex-
anime and consider the further papers
they will submit in every case. II there
be any relief to be found in such assist

The Picayune, in u recent issue,
treats its readers to the following
bit of entertaining polltical
gossip:
"Since it has become known
positively that the party Of State
officials avoided coming to New
Orleans in returning TO Baton
Rouge, one can hear the widest
kind Of rumors about what trans
pired at the national capital
among the big guns in shaping
up strong combination for the
approaching State campaign.
Some steadfastIy maintain that
the conditions were such as to
place Il combination between Gov
ernor Foster and Senator Me-
Emery beyond the range Of pos
sibilities others declare with
equal assurance that an agree
ment was reached and that it will
gradually leak cut that the admin
istration forces are at work to IN
sure the gubernatorlal nomlna-
ton of Senator McEnery. Those
who press the latter view act as if
they know and are speaking by
the card. One of them went 50
far as to make the statement
that he had the informa-
ton direct from Washington
that the agreement reached was:
McEnery for the goyershlp; Eos
ter for the unexpired term or va
eancy in the Senate occasloned
by McEnery's election as COVER
nor; Foster for Cafery's success
sor; Blanchard for the Senate
rial vacancy occasioned at the ex-
piration Of Fosters filling the un-
expired term; in other words,
Blanch hard Will be elected as the
United States Senatorial repre-
sentative from North Louisiana.
while Foster will be elected rs the
representative from South Lou
lsiana, and Senator Caffery will
be named to succeed Justice
Breaux on the Supreme Bench III
