From The People
Prominent Jurist Discusses Mccall
PardOns.

ITONulItIb OuilnA AlinNuooNo hNN"h
PardOns.
POcahontas, Arkansas,
November 2lst, 1925.
Editor Star Herald:
Much interest seems to be manifest
ed in the press and ION the curb" as
to the validity or invalidity Of the
pardons recently issued by Acting Gov
ernOr Mccall When such occasions
arouse sincere interest in the provis-
ions of our organic law, they are in
sense beneficial, because study of
our constitution tends to create real
concern in the government.
Having a rather general clientele OF
farmers, business and professional
men,. the writer's "offhand opinion" on
this question has been sought so fire.
Quently during the past month that
more or less careful investigation of
the matter has been compelled; and
the results are given herewith, without
any regard to policies or politics.
Under the Act of Congress of June
30th 1906, the Constitutions of Ar
kansas of 1896, 1864, 1868 and 1874
were edited by DR.. Francis Newton
| Thorpe, and are found on pages 261
| to 375 inclusive of American Charters,
Constitutions and Organic Laws. The
text is verified from Judge Z. Nj. Roses
edition of the Constitution of Arkan-
sas.
The governors pardoning power in
the Constitution of 1896 is defined on
page 27S of that work in these words !:
"In all criminal and penal cases, ex-
cept in those of treason and impeach-
ment, he shall have power to grant
pard0ns after conviction, and remit
| fines and forfeitures under such rules
and regulations as shall be prescribed
by law"
His power to pardon given by the
constitution of 1864 is defined on page
2D7 in the identical words and punctua-
tion of the same provision of that Of
1896.
The constitution of 1868 defined his
power to pardon in these words (page
315 of the above mentioned authority :
'He may grant reprieves, pardons and
combinations after conviction for all
offences, except treason and cases of
| Impeachment, upon such conditions
and with such restrictions and limita-
tions as he may think proper; subject,
however, TO such regulations as may
be prescribed by law relative to the
manner of applying for pardOns."
| Our present constitution. 1874, de-
fines the pardoning power as follows f:
| (page 344 of above mentioned author
ity) I'm all criminal and penal cases.
iexcept in those of treason and impeach-
ment, the governor shall have power
TO grant reprieves, combinations of
sentence, and pardOns, after convic-
tion; and to remit fines and forfeitures,
under such rules and regulations as
shall be prescribed by law"
The important question we have to
determine is whether under the last
quoted provision the Legislature can
make rules and regulations prescribing
the method or methods to be used by,
the governor in granting pardons, re-
prieves etc, which must be followed.
THE safe rule of constitutional con
struction is to regard the nature and

Burnham sang Dear Old Pal of
Nine" and then Mr.. CuIbertson, who
was master of ceremonies, told the
students that being a good citizen did
not consist only in standing for the
flag, but in working for it as we'll
Mr.. DeGroot of the Interstate Com
merce Commission told of Secretary
Lanes experience when the flag spoke
to him, addressing him as "Mr. Flag
maker" and dwelled on the fact that
the flag is what we make 1t, and that
we alone can dishonor it. Regarding
the symbolic meaning of the colors
he spoke Of the red Of sacrifice, of the
fact that every worthwhile thing in
the world must be paid for by some
ones sacrifice. and that no one can
be really happy until he Is willing
himself to pay this price. eff you
don't pay the price of preparation for
success In your youth, you must pay
the penalty of failure in your old
age" Mr.. DeGroot closed with two
poems, one by Edgar Guest, "Our
Duty to the Flag and "The Best Is
Yet to Be" by Berton Braley.
