Wholesale Pardons.

It is interesting to notice that many of the state papers are do- ing what the News Record did long ago--scoring Gov. Jones for his reckless and almost criminal use of the pardoning power.
 The matter has come to be a public scandal. It has almost got to this point, that no matter what crime man may commit, ii his friends will get up a petition filled with maudlin gush and tear com polling rot, put it in the hands of some shrewd lawyer or politician with ''pull'' and bundle the com bination off to Little Rock, Gov. Jones will do the rest. It is de- voutly to be hoped that Gov. Jeff Davis will inaugurate change in this highly important respect when he comes into office.-Fort Smith Daily News Record.
 In the above Gov. Jones' par- doning policy is correctly stated. If Gov. Davis pursues the same policy, the laws and courts may as we'll be abolished. But we be- lleve Mr. Davis will be a decided improvement on Gov. Jones in this respect. If he isn't, the law abiding people will be at the mer- cy of the violators of the law Ozark Democrat.
