PROPER VIEW OF PARpoNe.

Foster v. Brown, the distinguished
Tennessee Republican who was re-
Gently appointed Attorney General for
Porto Rico, has the proper concep-
ton of the pardoning power. Mr..
Brown believes, and very correctly,
that the pardoning power Is vested
in the executive merely that mercy
may be extended to the guilty and for
the purpose of granting justice to
those who may through manifest
fraud have been convicted, the fraud
coming to light too late to modify the
Judgment Of the courts. He does not
take to the Patterson idea that the
executive is to constitute himself
review court, to determine the suit
or innocence of those upon whom
proper judgments have been passed
by the judicial authorities.
In declining to recommend a pardon
for a felon in Porto Rico Mr.. Brown
makes these sound observations:
when man makes application to
an executive for pardon he implied
ly admits his guilt, for pardon i'm
plies guilt. II there is no guilt there
is no ground for forgiveness. 1t Is an
appeaI to executive clemency. 1t is
asked as a matter of favor to the gull
ty. It is granted not of right but OF
grace. A party is acquitted on the
ground of innocence, but is pardoned
through favor. Now if should rec
ommend to you the pardon of this de-
PENDANT because believe on reading
the record that the jury and the SUI
nreme Court have arrived at wong
on the facts in the case,
and you should pardon him because OF
this recommendation, then, in my
you would transcend the
of your once. 1t Is
for the judiciary to pass on the guilt
or innocence of persons indicted for
crime; it is the province of the execu-
tive to extend pardon or forgiveness
where, by fraud, accident or mistake
occurring during the trial, great injus-
tice has been done, or where by reason
Of the changed condition OF the de-
PENDANT after the trial, it is in the
public interest to have executive Glenn
ency extended to him"

THE ELECTION LAW.

Republican who are really sincere
In their plea for a fair election law
will not support the machine ticket
in the pending campaign. Patterson
and Patterson's candidates are pledg-
ed to a repeal of the act of 1909, the
first law that insured genuine repre-
sentation to the minority party in
twenty years. They would substitute
for it the old discredited law that
vests absolute control of the election
machinery in the Governor.
For twenty years the Republicans
have sung a song about free ballot
and fair count" That has been
the battle cry of that party in Ten
nessee for two decades. Its orators
have grown hoarse and red in the
face discussing the issue; It's news
papers have screamed and ranted for
these many moons about the iniquity
of the Democratic election law. The
Republican campaign did not bear
fruit until last year when the Demo
cratic majority passed an act that
would guarantee an honest express
sion at the ballot box.
That act took from the Governor
the control of the election machinery,
a. "power which no good Governor
would want, and a power which no
bad Governor should have" The Su-
preme Court sustained the constitu-
tionality of that act over the determ-
ined opposition of the Patterson CO
horts. The Old Guard Democracy
that is supporting the Shields ticket
is pledged to that law The machine
Democracy is pledged to its repeal
and to a restoration to the Governor
Of the appointment of every watch
err clerk, officer and judge at every
one of the 1000 polling places in Ten
nessee.
Are the Republicans sincere in
their plea for fair and honest cleo
tion law? Have they been merely
making noise for political effect
these twenty years? Have they be-
lieved what they said These are
pertinent inquiries which we address
to the Republican minority that is Co .
quoting with Patterson. These are
plain questions that we submit to
those Republicans of this county who
have announced a determination to
support the Patterson puppets for the
Supreme Court. /

state? There Is a crisis In the af1sirs
Of Tennessee. The Republicans have
chance to redeem It Upon their
devotion to principle and their adher-
ence to the plain path OF duty depends
in a very large measure the future
OF this State.
The Republican party has not been
great party in Tennessee because
Is leaders have not always been &C
tuated by the highest motives. This
year they have shown patriotism, hon
esty and courage in dealing with the
situation. Now let the voters Of that
party follow their true and trusted
leaders and the Republican party will
secure the eternal gratitude OF the
people of Tennessee. The Republi-
can party viii be great and true and
strong.

foresaw the result OF the arbitrary

pie OF their right OF local self-govsFn-

for the Widespread decentralization
which has followed the free and easy
policy OF the administration and its

had expected at least a form Of re-

Is little wonder at the alarm tina pub

In addition the situation is made
fearfully worse because Of the at
tempt of the machine to control the

lawless element to defeat those
judges who are appealing directly to
the people for protection against the
very influences that have made this
menacing contempt for law Pos
sible.

THE REPUBLICANS.

Although Mr.. Littleton has made
two or three speeches of two hours
length he has not yet advanced one
single reason why the Republicans
should support the machine ticket in
this campaign. Mr.. Littleton Ire
tends to sincerely desire the election
of a Republican Governor. If he is
sincere in this declaration he is woe
fully ignorant of political conditions
in Tennessee for he must know that
II the Patterson judiciary ticket wins
in August it will be practically impos-
sible to defeat Patterson in November.
If he is not sincere he is making a
most reprehensible effort to deceive
and delude the Republicans of Ten
nessee and deserves a severe rebuke
from them.
No Republican who really desires
the success of his party can afford to
vote for the Patterson ticket. The
Patterson party Is pledged to the re-
peal of the present election law
against which no honest Republican or
honest Democrat can offer one word
of legitimate criticism. This is the
first law that Tennessee ever had that
guaranteed honest minority represen-
tation at the polls. It is a good law
and the Republicans cannot AFFORD to
have 1t repealed.
The Republicans voted almost solid
ly for the prohibition bill That party
has always been party of temper
ance. 1t has always taken an advanc-
cd stand on this question. A vast
majority of the white Republicans Of
Tennessee stand for temperance re-
form. 1t is reasonable to presume
that the Republican representatives
in the General Assembly represented
truly the sentiment of their constit
uents. Now in all candor and homes
ty we ask the Republicans of Tennes.
