Special Session Tasks.

Woodrow Wilson is not indulg-
ing in extrayagant theories when
he holds that the banking and
currency system of the country
needs clarifying and strengthen
ng. This, in fact, has been
one Ct the beliefs of the Repub-
lhcan party, and the leaders of
that party devoted much time
during the past four years to a
solution Of certain financial
problems.
TIE difficulty seems to be to
hit upon methods and practices
which shall not injure or embar-
rass the financial institutions and
experts, but which shall provide
stronger guarantees and some
what reader credit to the pub
lie as a whole.
If the task of revising the tar
iff schedules, which seems far
moro imperative, now that a
large increase in Government
revenues is promised under the
provisions of the income tax,
is at all certain to interfere with
the financial and commercial
program of the country, as has
been vigorously maintained by
the advocates of high tariff sched-
ules, it is proof of shrewdness
and good sense on the part of
the President-elect that he is in
clined to insist upon financial
legislation as well as tariff leg
islation, when the special session
Of Congress cOnvenes.
And there is further proof of
souua judgment in the President
elect reported declaration that
there should be no Philippine
legislation during the special
session.
The question of the Philippines
is at least not imperative, and,
il has nothing to do with the
major items in the Forthcoming
congressional program,
On the whole, the new Presi-
dent seems not only to have
opinions of his own, but his
point OF view appears to be a
sound One.-St. Louis Times.

A Board of PardOnS.

At the next session Of the legislature
the question of providing for a State
Board of Pardons promises to claim
marked attention.
To create such a board the constitu-
ton will; have to be amended, since it
at present vests in the Governor the
sole right to grant pardons. That right
carries with it a degree of responsible
ty and a Measure of annoyance that al
most any governor would gladly be
freed from.
Appropos to this subject, it has been
freely talkeded that Lieut.. Gov. Bilbo
would promptly pardon C. C. Smith if
he could catch Governor Brewer out
of the state" The creation of a board
of pardons would at least free US from
the ludicrous probability of a real gov
ernor having to stay within the state,
or leave it secretly, to prevent an act
ing governor from releasing from pris-
on those whom the actual governor
thinks should remain therein.
Without reference to the propriety of
%pardoning c. c. Smith, but simply as
an abstract proposition, the Herald is
free to say that the ~pardoning rower is
something which an acting governor
with a tenure of only a few days, or
possibly a few hours, should be slow to
exercise. Indeed, that part of the con-
s~titution clothing the lieutenant COVER
nor with all the powers of the governor
during tn latter's absence from the
state, would be more logical if it ex-
cepted the power to pardon. Madison

Gov. Brewer on OH MN Suits.

In commenting on the suits filed by
Attorney General Ross Collins against
the oil mills of the state, Governor
Brewer said when publication was made
of the matter:
81 have suggested both to Attorney
General Collins and to the officials of
the department of justice in Washing
ton that something ought to be done,
and quickly, to break mp this trust.
When %cottonseed ran up to $24 a ton, it
was peremptorily put back to $40. l
understand that some fellows were
blacklisted because they bid more on
the state cottonseed. That's getting
pretty high-handed, when the trust
tries to dictate what prices will be paid
for cottonseed.
"More than half a million tons of cot
tonseed is produces. in Mississippi, and
if you take $40 a ton off the price it
should bring it results in beating the
people out of 5 1000, 600. This comes
out of the pockets of the farmers, who
earn their living by the sweat of their
brows.
lone of the worst features of this
trust is that the domestic mills, for a
few crumbs are helping out the big
trust, and the great mass of the cotton
seed does not stay in the state, but
goes to the big oil trust plants away
from Mississippi.
Especial agents have been searching
for evidence against the trust for many
months. l am glad the matter has at
last been taken into the courts, for it is
of very great Importance"
