ABUSE OF PARDON.

The Washington Messenger thinks
Gov. Russell has been more condemned
for the way he has used the pardon
ing power than for anything else, and
adds:
Not week has passed but we see
the announcement made that the Gov
ernor had pardoned some criminal"
Public announcement is not made
of pardons. They are made by the
Governor as suits him, and informa-
ton as to the pardons is denied the
public, except as it leaks out.
Shortly after Governor Russell was
inaugurated he announced that all
pardons, would be given out to the
public. He kept this up short time
and then gave orders that the public
should not be advised when pardons
were granted. The fact of a pardon
is now known only to those on the
inside except in occasional cases.
The pardon of an inmate of the pen
itentiary is a public act performed
by a public officer. The Governor
oughts to let the public know in the
regular channels when the pardon is
granted. More than that: when appi-
cation is made to the Governor for
pardon, he ought to cause the appli-
cation to be printed before taking ac-
ton. That would prevent pardon on
eX parte testimony, and would put
him in possession of any reason why
the pardon should not be granted.
Under the present custom, the
friends of the convict employ law
yer who comes to Raleigh and lays the
matter before the Governor with such
petitions as he has been able to secure.
Sometimes the lawyer has purposely
refrained from letting the matter be
known near the locality where the
crime was committed, because he fear
ed a counter petition. Not many years
ago, well known lawyer called at
that | am in Raleigh. / am here try
ing to get a pardon. There might be
opposition to it il it was known at
home that application was to be made.
If they don't hear until the pardon
is granted, the opposition will soon
die down and will amount to little"
Publicity is the remedy for many
of the evils of government. Every of
fetal act of a public official ought to
be published, and every officer vested
with the pardoning power ought to
want all the light thrown upon SO
high and solemn an act.

MUST BE PRESERVED.

Those who wish a law curtailing
the power of the Governor to employ
attorneys forget that within month
the State will have a Governor who
will not need to be curbed. Daniel L..
will be out and Aycock will have an
Attorney General, upon whom the
State will rely to lead in the States
litigation. If the railroads will obey
the State law and pay the taxes as
sessed against them, there will be lit
tie need TO employ lawyers. But if
Simonton assumes to continue to set
aside State laws to enable railroads
to escape the just payment of taxes,
the people will demand of the Govern
or that he employ able attorneys to
assist the Attorney General in preserv-
ing the sovereign right of the State
to tax railroad property as we'll as the
property of individuals. 1t must be
preserved.

EIGHT DROWNED In A STORM.

limits and property valued at several
thousand dollars has been destroyed
or injured. The known dead are: Mrs.
Nancy Caudle. Miss Clara Caudle,
Rosa Chapman, Emma Decker, Thomas
CappS, Frank Walker, two negro men,
names unknown.

dark. The rise in the creeks and
branches was so rapid that it did not

man, all colored-Were drowned with

There were several people, mostly ne

the bridge, a brick structure, collapsed.
Numerous reports Of other losses
come in, but owing to the high water
they cannot be verified. It is almost
certain, however. that several more
lives have been lost. 1t is impossible to
estimate the damage done by the
storm, but it will be heavy. Incoming
