Certainly the. people of this State can not be
accused of undue inqusitiveness If they should ask
Governor Jackson for the names of the sponsors of
Dr. Bachfeld, now acting a personal agent of
the Governor in the matter of pardons.
The unusual nature of the appointment without
any explanation of its necessity, is another
for some show of confidence in the people.
Are there matters Of such grave import pending
that it is necessary to have immediate action?

special representative of the Governor
The law plainly says that two members are nee
essary to constitute quorum. There is no claim
that Dr. Bacheld is member. If it be necessary to
have complete board, removal and regular ZAP

The disclosure that Or. Bachfeld had connec.
tion with the Of the most celebrated guest of
the Indiana penitentiary might, SO It would seem
impel the Governor to tell why he made this selec

From those who prosecuted this famous case
comes the information that Bachield made state

with this prisoner and suspected of showing
undue activities In preventing evidence being gath
