In discussing the vesti1g Of the
rardon.ng power in the executive,
The opinion has tlis 10 say OF res
.r;ints and restrictions that are no
more than implied, and which are Of
vital Importance IN this case:
The pardoning power in this coun-
n, is usually, il not universally, con
itrred by constitutional provisions,
and it is usually conferred upon tn
governors ol the respective states,
unrestrained by any direct lmita
tions OF law The head OF the eX-
ecutive department is believed by
the American people TO be general
ly so self-restrained, SO imbued with
patriotism, so conscious OF the res
possibilities OF his high office, that
h. will never abuse the power and
viii always exercise the same in the
interests of the state as a whole.
TO the exclusion OF all sordid, per
sonal, political or other Interior mo-
thes. This is as it should be. Pub
lie officers, TO be strong and ef-
fective. must have power and res
possibility. II their activities arr
So circumscribed by restrictions as
to prevent all initiative and inde-
pendence. their power for good in
behalf OF the people will be greatly
minimized. They may sometimes go
astray, but the damage thereby to
the state will be negligible, compsr
ed to the damage resulting from
weak and dwarfed public service. In
this jurisdiction the pardoning power
is conferred upon the governor in
the following language:
Subject to such regulations as may
be prescribed by law, the governor
shall have power to grant reprieyes
ard pardons after conviction for all
offenscs except treason and in cases
OF impeachment Article V, section
g state constitution.
Under this provision, there is a
pl;in and clear grant of the pard
oring power. There may be regula-
tions by law of the manner of its
exercises, but the ultimate power
and right to pardon is granted, IN
restrained by any consideration 9th
er than the conscience and wisdom
and fhe sense of public duty of the
governor. No other board or person
is 10 be consulted, nor is their ap-
proval to be obtained. The deci-
sior rests solely with the execu-l
tive"
IN ordering the prisoners remand
ed % custody, the opinion concludes
From all of the foregoing It ap-i
pears that the petitioners. rotwitf-
standing the pardons issued by the
governor, are not now entitled TO be

PARDONS ARE HELD VALID
VILLISTAS TO BE TRIED AGAIN
Ry Gnthrie Smith

The right of the governor OF New
NeXico to grant pardons IS absolute
and unrestricted, il was held by the
supreme court Tuesday in the opin-
ion in the habeas corpus suit OF the
10 Villstas who were pardoned by
Gov. o. A. Iarrazolo, but held IN
the penitentiary by an Injunction
from the district court, signed by
Judge Reed Holoman. The cour'
held furthermore, that no restriction
upon the governors pardoning pow
er may be imposed except through
constitutional amendment.
a further holding OF the court was
that the rearrest of the Nillisias Is
binding, and that they are to b.
held in custody to await another
trial Thus il comes about that Gov.
Lsrrazolo has failed in his attempt
10 set free the murderers who raid
ed Columbus. The most-or the
worst-that he has succeeded in do
ing is to saddle upon New Mexico
the cost OF another trial.
The unanimous opinion OF the
court was that some of the reasons
given By the governor for granting
the pardons were wholly without
foundation, il is tc be inferred. The
executive order raised the point that
po,sibly the United States was .
war with the Republic of Mexico
st the time OF the raid, and con-
sequently the raiders should not be
tried by the civil authorities The
Governors order said. however. that
whether a state of peace or war OBJ
tanned: whether the men were press
ed into service or served as volun-
teers; and even though the men
knew they were attacking an Ame-
ricsn settlement, they were part of
a military command, were not res
ponsible agents and therefore could
rot be guilty Of murder.
The opinion says:
The petitioners in tn -ro~ced-
ing are persons commonly known ara
designated as TIE Villisiss.' They
derived this designation from tho
commonly reputed fact that thev
we're members Of marauding band
OF Mexicans. who, under the lead
ei ship of one Francisco Villa. the
notorious bandit of MEXICO. crossed
the international boundary line on
March 9. ioI6. and attacked the
town of Columbus. in Luna county
iris state. and killed a number RI
our citizens without anv conceivable
cause or provocation. Had the ne
titioncrs been members of the army
OF any recognized government in
Mexico. the erisode would undoubt-
ediy have furnished ample Ground
TO- war with our neighboring re-
public. They were, howeve-, accord

L. F. Woodhead received a Christ
mas present Friday morning. Il was
notification from tae Benjamin Elec-
trio manufacturing company that he
had won first prize on the national
window display contest conducted by
this company. The Joy OF winning is
OF course more to M. Woodhead
than the acual prize, even though
that is fine Elgin gold watch. The
window was on display here about
the first of December and attracted
much attention locally. 1t was a COM
prehensive demonstration OF the use
of Benjamin electric plugs. Nh
Woodhead gives much credit TO his
mother. Mrs. 4 F. Hunter, who mat
erially assisted him in arranging the
window. The letter he received also
asked for the negative of the photo
erapl of the window in order that
it might be displayed in the various
