The pardoning by Gov. Jones OF
two White county convicts drew a
letter from Judge Cypert, of Searcy
on the use of the pardoning power,
The Judge went to the trouble to
investigate and found that the par
dons were secured largely on mis-
representation, that officers whose
names we're reported as signerS Of
the petition knew nothing about it.
He recommends that a board of
pardons be created. 1t is undOubt-
edly fact that the pardOning pow
er is most woefully abused and
something ought to be done to put
a stop to it. Not one convict in a
hundred deserves Clemency, and ey-
cry one that is pardoned makes it
Just that much harder for the
courts to convict.-MonrOe County

AN ESTEEMED IMPERIALIsT.

A highly esteemed correspondent
DIR. John B. Bond, Srp wants to
know divers and sundry things
about imperialism and very prop
erIy seeks information from the
Democrat.
The good doctor wants us ito
print out the act or acts of 'imperi-
ahsm' by our government in rela-
ton to the Philippine war" That's
easy-so here goes; One act of
imperialism" a monumental one
that will do for all time, was that
provision in the Paris treaty by
which the government of the Unit
ed States forced fallen foe, sup
plant at its feet, to cOncede the
sovereignty of the Philippine Is
lands. Our correspondent wants
an "official act or utterance' that
warrants the charge of Imperialism.
Let us first take the presidents
declaration against Imperialism
made in his message of April Is,
1898, when he declared that "for-
chile annexation is criminal ag-
gression of the worst kind. But
see how rapidly the spirit of greed
and conquest mastered him. Just
six months afterwards, on October
21, 1888, the same president caused
a proclamation to be made an
nouncing that Dewey's victory" had
practically effected the conquest of
the Philippine Islands" " and that
"a military government had been
instituted in fulfllment of the rights
of soYereignity." This is all "ofti-
cial" and that seems to be what DR..
Bond wants. 1t is a well known
fact, never denied, that majority
of our commissioners at Paris were
not in favor of taking any consider
able part of the Philippine group
until sealed "instructions" from
President Mckinley compelled them
''to make the purchase" as the
chairman of the American commis-
sioners, Judge Day. explained it.
But why go further into the details
of the disreputable business? The
truth is we began the war with
Spain on humanitarian grounds; we
ended it as island-grabbers. There
was but one chance for us to come
out of the war with clean hands
and that was to come out with
empty hands. But, God forgive us,
the lust OF power and the greed of
empire, the acCursed spirit Of impe-
rialism, ruled the hour and in less
than one short year we repudiated
all our sacred promises and entered
upon a career of conquest and spoil
alton. This is therecord that inn
partial history will make for US.
Who can foresee the end? We
are claiming sovereignty over a
thousand islands, 5000 miles dis
tant from our shores, inhabited by
| 10, ,000,00 half civilized savage and
barbarous people. While we are
putting down an insurrection in one
of these distant possessions" we
are by a solemn compact recOgniz-
ing slavery aud poligamy as exist
ing orders in another. While we
are putting down Aguinaldo and
his insurgents, we are paying His
Royal Highness, the Sultan of the
lSulus, out of the federal treasury
the sum of $500 a month, as salary,
and $75 per month to the keepers
af the royal harem! This is impe-
rialism. This is as a part of the
inheritance which we received from
poor, old bankrupt Spain. 1t is a
fine picture to look upon. And yet
there are good, honest, simple
minded Christian people who see
manifest destiny" the hand of
God guiding us" in all these things!

TEXAS BAPTIsTs.
The Church Split Wide Open as Re-
suit of Factional Differences.

Houston, Tex, Nov. l6.-A spes
cial from Dallas says. The Baptist
Church of Texas is split wide open
as a result of the factiOnAl differ
ences which resulted in large num-
Der of delegates being refused seats
in the state convention which ad-
iourned tonight. The faction which
was excluded is known as the
Church party; its leaders were to-
day in earnest but quiet consulta-
ton. The situation was considered
from all standpoints aud a vigor-
onsly aggressive campaign deter
mined upon. An address to the
Baptists of Texas is to be pronul-
gated within the next three days.
The instrument is now being pre-
pared. 1t was determined to dis
tribute this address among every
congregation of Baptist and then at
the expiration of tive months ener'
getic action is to be taken. The
first move of Importance will be a
resort to the courts of law. The
board of directors appointed to-day
by the general convention are to be
sued to obtain control of the Bap'
tist general convention, all the
educational institutions of the Bap'
tist denominations in Texas, the
possession and control of mission
funds and in fact for all the ma
chinery of the Baptist church IL
this state. This will be the most ex
teusive religious lawsuit ever in
stituted in the United States. II
was also given out that the pro
ceedipgs of the general convention
just adjourned will be reported tt
the various churches by th'
church policy" party and de
nounced as illegal and of no force
that the amendments to the con
stitutiou are not binding and re
commentator made that a gen
eral convention be held under tht
auspices of the church party Leaders
The result will be that the fgh'
will be carried into every church il
the state some $500 in number.
