McDonald's Testimony ; BY this time no one can put any, credence in the testimony of John McDonald, self-confessed perjurerwho now as aerts that ha testimopy,againsJ Moonev ana Billings was framed. He stands out as a weak-minded creature whose word is worthless. It is qoite impossible to evaluate now the testimony which he gave 14 years ago. l J It is impressive to the outside world that some of those who were connected with the case now profess 9 change of opinion as to the guilt of Mooney and Billings or of one of them. The judge at the time of the trial has reversed his opinion as to their guilt. Captain Duncan Hatheson, then of - the San Francisco police force, iujw city treasurer, stated to the examining jurists that if he were sitting in judgment he would pardon both Mooney, and J38Jings because they . were "unjustly convicted.1 flolice Captaia Charles Goff stat ed that he favored executive clemency f or Mobney but be lieves Billings was Implicated in the bomb explosions. -Difficult it" is to retry a -ease after the lapse of X4 - years. If one or both of these men is innocent of the crime, then society has done them most grievous wrong. If guilty fhey have paid a penanee i or 14 years which is doubtless greater than the average term served even by a murderer. We are just like millions of others who are not in position to sit as judge in the ease; but our attitude is that with the - large element of doubt which has been raised, the California authorities should temper justice with mercy; and unless they are actually satisfied of the guilt of Mooney and B&1 lags, they should be pardoned. - .
