Judge Goodwin says that it is
easy to give slave chained to
post little more chain and tell him
to buck. When one sees some of
the slaves, who happen to have
printing presses, jumping about
their posts and bucklng with diatonic
bowls that even drown the clanking
OF the chains, and would put the
most lusty lunged coyote to rout,
he wonders if the calm world does
not, in passing along, stuff it ears to
shut out the din and wish the nui-
sance could be abated peaceably
The pardon of Paul Corcoran has
been fruitful theme to set the
whole menagerie going, until the
general public is inclined to feel
that, even if the merits of the case
we're all adverse to ciemency, the
TRADES are not honestly based on
any such considerations but bear the
undisguised stamp OF chagrin over
the loss Of political issue on which
great hopes were built, and at other
times there seems to be rage over
the loss Of possible platform. In
fact the charges are made that it was
expected the pardon would not be
granted and that the plan was for
all these hysterical journals to come
out and advocate the release of the
prisoner from Shoshone county.
When the Corcoran petition was be-
ing circulated by we'll known citizens
OF this county, the writer refused to
sign the paper because he was con-
tent to let the laws take their course
and he did not care to dabbe with
the ends of justice, more especially
where he was unacquained with the
true facts and considerations that
weighed ON either side. He was
content to leave the matter to execu-
tive authority in which he had and
still has full confidence, and leave it
to such authority to act without the
bias of prayer from any one not
thoroughly conversant with all that
might be laid before the board OF
pardons. We are still unfamiliar
with the bulk of the testimony laid
before that board, but this, at least
has been learned: That during the
last state campaign the republican
politicians fairly swarmed over Shos-
hone county pledging the pardon of
Corcoran if they were put into power.
During the senatorial fight, it is
claimed by certain parties of un-
questioned integrity, the offer was
made to secure the pardon of Cor
coran in return for the election of
Geo. l.. Shoup to the senate, and
those seeking to make the deal offer
ed to deposit t25, 900 forfeit to
guarantee thei carrying out of the
pledge. This shows that the Corcor-
