so far from even, after all. For,
though the legislative branch of the

the executive, Just think what the
executive branch has done to the
judiciall
Other Governors, like the Gov
ernor of Missouri, whose happy lot
you envy, may haye the power to
make more appointments, but none
of them has ever had the privilege
of pardoning as many appointees to
prevent their trial by the courts
to say nothing Of party associates
needlessly harassed by the petty
charge of completely in the assassi-
nation of Governor.
The Governor of Missouri, you
say, has 1000, appointments to your
twenty But suppose he we're call
ed on to pardon 10 per cent. Of
them before his term was half over,
accompanying each pardon with a
literary production of unquestioned
merit, what time would he have left
for writing 10000 word messages to
his Legislature, or for locoing it
through the country telling the
people of other States that Missouri
is the most lawless in the Union.
II you'll pardon the suggestion
and we know you Whimsical of
grieving over the curtailment of
your prerogatives, consider prayer
fully and thankfully the muss you'd
have got yourself in If they hadn't
been curtailed.-Louisville Times.
