LET'S NOT CONDEMN TOO QUICK.

There has been a great deal Of
unfair comment because the Gov
ernor has used his pardoning
power to a considerable extent,
more so than any other chief ex-
ecutive within the last twenty
years: to the uninformed, the
large number released from the
penitentiary does have the ap-
pearance that the Governor has
been too free with the use Of this
power, but a reading of the pam.
phlet which ne sent to the gen.
eral assembly as his report Of the
reasons which actuated him, IS
convincing that he exercised this
power wisely and humanely in
each and every case, with the
possible exception of one OF two.
We are prone to condemn with
out knowing the facts, for
instance, take the case Of this
county where the Governor par
doned a man who had been in the
prison for about 16 years. In this
case there was a petition contain
ing about700 signatures together
with letters from prominent citl-
zens, including most of the coun'
ty officers, and a majority Of the
jury that tried the case. Upon
this showing the Governor parol.
ed the man: the people in other
counties not being informed OF
the true facts, are as prone to
critlcise him for this case, Us are
the people of this county for some
case in Greenvi}!e. Therefore it
it best to learn the truth before
we condemn.
Then too, the Judges who sen.
tence are not always fair, they
sometimes give a poor fellow a
sentence altogether oat of pro.
portion to his offence. when on
the other hand, they do not give
a man of influential connections
what he deserves. How often dc
we read where a friendless fellow
for some trivial offense gets sew.
eral years in the penitentlary.
and a man Of prominence for a
graver offense gets off with a
fine, or if the law will not accept
a fine, then with a very light
prison sentence, and while il
prison he is not required to dc
the work of convicts but is allow
ed every freedom, except beyond
the walls. that is to say in day
light.
Because Of this discrimination
it is well that the Chief Execu
tive should give a merciful view
to such things: we have had gov
ernorS who feared the criticism
Of the press to an extent thai
they were afraid to exercise then
constitutional rights without get
ting the sanction Of certain mem
bers of the press. the result be
ing that many a wretch lay vast
ing in the penitentiary when he
had paid more than his just pen
atty for his crime, and some lay
there for years and years who
were innocent, but had no one tc
aid them in removing the stain
Along this line The Yorkville
Enquirer of the Sth has the fol

INTEGRITY OF THE COURTS.

Blacksburg speech that impress
ed US more than anything else
was what was said about the
manner IN which justice is dis
pensed.
The governors statement was
to the effect that many criminals
convicted of crime get off more
lightly than otherwise because
Of influence brought to bear upon
judges before sentence is passed.
According to the way the gov
ernor sized it up, the situation is
like this: After a man is convict
ed, some man Of influence, maybe
a lawyer. member of the legisla.
ture before whom the trial judge
has to go for reelection, will 60
to that Judge and make represen-
tations in behalf of that convict,
and as the result of such repre-
sentations the judge will tighten
the sentence.
People may pooh. pooh at this
statement as much as they like;
but it is the absolute truth, and
the fact Of the statement coming
from Mr.. Blease does not detract
in the least from it's significance.
This writer has seen this very
thing done time and again in the
York court house, and he can
conceive Of NO one thing that is
more calculated to bring the
courts into contempt and to de-
stroy confidence in our much
boasted security in life and prop
erty through equal and exact
justice to all.
AS to how to remedy this situa-
ton we confess we do notshnow.
The trouble in the first place lies
with the s'men of influence. who
would prostitute their influence
to such purposes, and IN the sec.
ond place, to the lack of that
courage and integrity in the Judge
which should hold him 10 his duty
regardless Of consequence to him.
self.
For one thing, We have thought
that the situation could be I'M
proved by electing judges by the
people instead of by the general
assembly. We do not claim that
this would prove an infalliole
remedy; but Notwithstanding all
claims to the contrary we have
arrived at the firm conviction
that the voters as a whole. are
more fit to elect judges than is
the general assembly. We believe
there is less politics in the prl-
mary election than there is in
the general assembly and we be.
lieve there is more honesty.

Perhaps when the investiga-
ton is over it Will oe found that
there has been a lot Of political
clap trap for public consumption,
and that instead Of a great big
stink. the odor Of Senator Sulli-
vans rose that he compared the
commission to, will permeate the
whole miserable business. But
above everything else let the
public have the facts, and not
the biased views Of those whom
the governor has offended.
