friends can expect the governor
to take action. Indeed, it does moi
seem clear that the governor would
have any right to interfere even il
he were so disposed. His sole
function is to exercise the pardon
ing power, not to set up extra con-
stitutional tribunals to supplement
or correct the actions of the courts.
1t is easy to get signatures for
almost any appeal to sympathy.
Nevertheless, the expert interest
in the conflicting testimony con-
corning the use of choloroform and
embalming fluids is not without
significance. It is proverbially diff
fcult to punish murders in this
State, and every presumption is in
favor of the verdict of guilty which
has been sustained in the face of
the most resourceful legal attack.
If our courts under such circums-
tances can not be better trusted to
arrive at the truth than any irregul-
ar tribunal, then Our whole system
of criminal jurisprudence falls to
the ground. Moreover, leaving
out the question of actual murder.
Patrick s connection with the Rice
case was so discreditable, involving
as it did a soundrelly attempt to
loot the old man S estate by forgery
that there need be little disposition
to question the ssjustice of his con
viction on general grounds. Never
theless, the criminal law is not ad-
mlnistered on general principles,
and if undoubted chemical and
biological facts discredit the testi-
mony Oh which Patrick was con-
victed, ne his certainly entitled to
have those facts considered, but |
they can be considered only in the
regular way. If at the end Patrick
is not satisfied with the results of |
his trial and appeals, he can in
woke the pardoning power. We
do not try criminals however, in
this State by executive Decree"

WELLS ON BAILEY.

- In a recent interview at Laredo,
Judge Jas. B. Wells, i'll speaking
Of the preseut hue and cry against
Senator Joseph w. Bailey in con-
nection with Standard Oil, express
ed the following opinion:
I am convinced that this attack
on Bailey will make him stronger
than ever before. Those who were
formerly ignorant or indifferent to
his record have had their attention
\called to it and they have found it
to be one of splendid service to the
people, without guilt and without
dishonor. 1t is record of which
any statesman in the Republic
might be proud.

ALL OVER THE HOUSE.
Symptoms Which ForeteII Diseases Of
Children.

Many children when complaining
of feeling i'll are more or less neg
lected by parents who attribute their
complaints to overlooking, a slight
cold or something of that sort, and
nothing further is done than to pet
and coddle a child who is really IN
need of a physicians care immedi-
Gtely. Consequently the disease gets
g firm hold, and often a doctor is
called IN when too late.
A mother can always tell that 6
hild has measles when the eyes and
nose are watery, as in an ordinary
cold in the head. A rash appears
on the face and neck in small spots
after three days and then spreads
over the body. In winter measles
are very serious, for should the child
be weak any exposure to cold will
bring about a bronchial trouble or
perhaps pneumonia, and the child
ever after, if it should even recover,
would have weak lungs. Measles
are contagious. The child should
be kept in a darkened room, a doc
tor sent for and his instructions
carefully followed.
Scarlet fever comes, as a.rule, sud
denly, with sore throat and high
fever. There is vomiting, and a red
ness covers the chest and upper part
Of the body and quickly spreads.

a bad cut can instantly be re-
ieyed by applying diluted tincture
of arnica-one part arnica to ten
parts water. Draw the edges of the
cut tightly together and bind up
well with a piece of clean linen or

piled to a cut until it has at least
stopped bleeding.
