The carrlek Pardon.

Says the Mortified News
"Unfavorable criticism OF Gov. McCul-
lough's administration viii be confined
almost wholly to the too frequent exercise
OF his parioning power. The latest act in
this line is in turning loose wife beater,
who was serving three years sentence in
the work house, a pretty light punish
ment by the way for a mighty serious
offense. Some Of the comments on this
pardon are To the effect that the governor
was imposed upon. Il certainly does not
seem that he could have had the facts fully
before him.
"All this leads to the question: Why
should a chief executive, national or state,
have the power to pardon a person con-
victed OF any g-ade of crime? Why not
leave all this to the courts The convic-
tons are obtained and the punishment
melted out there. The judges are CONVEX
SAINT with all the conditions or can easily
become so when required and for this
reason are more competent to pass upon
the work OF the court in any particular
case. AT all events the people should be
given ample knowledge OF petitions for
pardons and have an opportunity to pro-
test il they wish to do so.
