“It must be remembered that the power of pardon and parole lies iiT the hands of the Governor, where it is placed by the Constitution.’’ said the Governor. “To the people is given the right to criticise when the Governor does not exercise this right to please them. But as for the Governor’s right, it is his, not a town meeting affair, or an affair which calls for an election before the executive can act.”—From Gov. Marshall’s statement regarding his parole of Bader, as published in the Indianapolis News. All of which is true, in a sense, but the governor should also remember that he is but the servant of the public and owes his position to the suffrages of the people: He is not their master, but their hired man, as he was wont to put it during the last campaign, a fact which he seems to forget when making the above remarks concerning his action in paroling Mr. Bader, the convicted' bridge grafter.
