BYERS DECIDES
GOVERNOR MAY
PARDON L|FERS
Executive May Pardon After
Assembly Has Had Case
Presented for Decision.

Des Mcines Ia. July attorney
General w. II. Byers has decided that
the chief executive of the state has the
power TO pardon life convicts without
reference TO whether the Legislature ad-
vises for or against 1t.
The decision of the attorney general
directly affects 90 life convicts who pc
titioned the last legislature for pardons.
Under the law the governor must sub
init these applications to the assembly.
Under the decision. that having been
done. the governor has power TO par
don or not. without regard to the rec
concentration of the assembly. There
were more than score OF these appli-
cants before the last legislature.
General Byers handed down the de-
cision on February 10. 1905 or more
than four months ago. His opinion fol-
lowed upon a requests from the governor
for an Interpretation of the statute and
constitution. filed with the attorney
general several months prior to the
time that the opinion of the legal de-
partment was promulgated.
Under date of February Is, 1908, At
torney General Byers wrote. as fol-
lows:
Hon A. 3. Cummins, Governor of Iowa.
Sir: Some months ago you submitted TO
me the question of your power 10 pardon
or parole a prisoner convicted of murder
In the iirst degree and committed TO the
pcritentiary for life. and requested an
opinion as to whether or not you could
properly exercise this power and pardon
islature had. upon thu matter being pre-
sented 10 1t, refused to recommend such
action upon your part.
Legislature Can't Prevent.
Since that time have given the cues

I .l,ars, h,tn htnt, ak N
fna the slightest foundation or encour-
agcment for holding that the legislature,
by refusing Ia act upon AN appiicatlon
| FOR pardon when properly submitted TO 1t,
or by unfavorable action could thus pre-
vent the granting of the pardon or parole
/ by the governor.
1t Will be conceded. think. by. every
| one who has given the subject thought
! that the chief executive would not be
bound TO grant the pardon simply because
the legislature recommended 1t. and IT Is
| difticllt to understand why or upon what
authority 1t can be claimed that its ac-
ton should control In the one case and
| not I'm the other.
In my examination of the authorities
| touching this question ! found many
eases supporting the contention that thu
power to pardon under constitutional pro
/ visions similar to ours, can IN no man
ncr be controlled by the legislature; but
4 no good purpose Will be served by citing
them here.
The question is an important one ane
mllnication until could fully and abid
ingly satisfy myself what my decision
+ ought to be.
j do not overlook the fact that SOM
years ago the then attorne:- genera
passed upon this, question and held tina
thc governor was bound by the action y

do not know exactly how the question
came to him but as | sad In the begin

to find any support for that view and m
