nEG pAnnoN. GENrLEMEN

The Board Of Pardons at its next
meeting will probably be asked to rec
ommend the release Of John Lynn and
Harry NJ. White, former members Of
the Levy Court The Evening Journal
has no feeling in THE matter, but we
suggest that an impression prevails
that it is an easy matter to Sc
cure a pardon providing you have the
proper persons TO urge the petition. AS
far as we have heard there is no after
discovered evidence to show that these
men were improperly convicted. The
only plausible ground is the alleged
failing health Of the prisoners, but this
is getting to be a trife monotonOus
since it is urged in each instance. The
trouble is that there is an impression
that a pardon is easy to secure If yol
go about il in the right way. Th'
recent release Of Cole gives this color
and persons are warranted in drawing
the inference that II he could be re
leased under the circumstances, Their
ought to be little difficulty in othe
cases. And, by the way, it has beei
said that the AttoIney-General is re
sponsible for that, and that he is will
ing 10 stand for all criticism for tn
act. This is nonsense; the members c
the board are responsible, and the
cannot shift the burden to other shou
ders. II is playing the baby act"
attempt to shift the burden, or 70 a
low il to be shifted.
The power to grant pardOns shou
be exercised with the greatest car
and only in extraordinary circun
stances. When a court has heard a
the evidence under due form of la
and the jury has found its verdict, al
the sentence has been passed, this
cree should not be set aside, save
rare instances. To bring each ca
in review and to grant pardons wi
considerable frequency means trifiil

Cuba is TO be thrown virtually upon

NOW AND FOREVER

There are rumors Of conferences al
washington with certain officials oi
the Government over thematter ofDela'
wares two vacant seats in the Senate
Neither the President nor the interest
ed members of his Cabinet can learn
much that is new from these confer
ences. With Addicks II is a personal
fight; he has been consistent in that he
has never budged from his attitude
that his election as senator should
take precedence of everything else. 1t
is superior to all the claims of prefer
ment of friends and foes. If he can't
succeed. the party may go to perdi-
tion. and he has avOwed his purpose
Of helping it along.
The Republicans, on the other hand,
have no personal fight; they have no
one man who must be named as the
price of harmony. They could make
a deal any day under which they could
name a senator. but to the everlasting
credit of their leaders be it said that
not one Of them values his reputation
so little as to consent TO an election
with Addicks The party has taken its
stand for decency; it will make any
honorable concession; it has no feel
ing of animosity towards any Repub-
lican in the State, but Addicks is out
of the question. There can be no deal,
no compromise, no detection that will
allow him to win by Republican votes.
This has been the attitude. it is the at
titude. it will be the attitude.

.AN ERROR IN THE rHRoArn

A six-year-old boy in Philadelphia
died recently under the ministratlons
of Christian Science practitioners, and
the coroner's Jury returns a verdict of
Death from diphtheritic Group" What
nonsense that is There is no such
thing as disease, and mind alone is
causation," II we may believe the doc
trine Of the new cult One Of the prac-
titioners who attended the little fell
low, testified before the coroners jury
that she endeavored "to change the
boys thought" but was unsuccessful,
and so he died. The grim humor Of
such statement evidently did not
strike her ITO change the boys
thought! From that we are to infer
that the patient thought that he had
the disease. and, therefore, had 1t. This
suggests the proof of error in the
whole theory No healthy boy Of six
thinks anything about disease until he
has contracted it. Is It reasonable to
suppose that the little fellow decided
that he was going to have diphtheritic
Group, and therefore had il? It is
more reasonable TO presume that he
was thinking Of his marbles or OF a
circus when he was stricken.
Another statement OF the witness Is
most extraordinary. She declared that
IL Is the practice of Christian Scientists
to call in physician when a case gets
beyond their Skill That is an admis-
sion. to be sure, and suggests that If
the DOCTORS skill is necessary in des-
perate cases, IL is preferable from the
beginning. II looks like a small aper-
ture through which the baffled scien-
tist can crawl, shifting the RESPONSE
bility at the last moment.
According to another Of the attend
ant practitioners, when she was called
in the child was suffering from IAN
error in tho throat" and she labored
long and hard to remove this error. In
other words she bedeyiled the sick boy
with theories while he was suffering;
she tried TO put the thought Of health
In his mind while the mucous was
closing his throat and he was gasping
for breath! Isn't ii horrible.
But the curists go free Because they
testified that they did not charge for
heir services but only for their timel
This himsy evasion seems to have de-
neiyed the coroner. for he declared they
could not be held since they had asked |
no fee for professional services. I'll
this is good law, then every Quack can
medicine; he can charge what
ever he pleases for his time, and be
immune. Thus the law meant for the
protection of the people is coolly
evaded. Instead of an error in the
throat" numerous persons appear to
be suffering with an error in the brain.

With the coming Of the leaves and
other green things, the boys begin to
"play ball" The new rules promul-
gated seek the suppression OF rowdy-
ism in the great American game. and
il they shall have this effect it will be
money in the pockets Of the clubs. The
umpire has been given authority, not
only to fine players, but 10 disqualify
them. If this power is exercised with
Judgment it will result in less kicking
and grllmbhng, and less disgust on the
part Of players. The umpire must ever
be an autocrat. and it is a part of the
game that his decisions should be up
held. It is better to take defeat from
the hands of such an official than to
give an exhibition of childishness by
futile protest. SO play ball." and

The coroner Of Philadelphia thinks
that Christian Science practitioners
cannot be held for violating the law
when they practice medicine without
a license. when they testify that they
only charge for their time. But no
body ever pays a person for his time
alone; he pays for some work or skill
during that time. A physician is not
paid TO spend so many hours with us
and even a Christian Scientist is moi
called in TO occupy a chair, for a GER
tain number of minutes, to receive
suitable remuneration. The law can
not be evaded by any such subterfuge

its report TO the General Assembly The

right to criticise tho report in the AS

In view of the fact that this question
has been the cause of great agitation
for years, this practical unanimity is
surprising and gratifying, and prom
ises the acceptance of the report sub

to demonstrate that great church may

Hogs-Early this morning receipts
