If there has been any remission of the Governor's power of clemency after conviction in criminal cases, it is to be found in Article IV, Section 11A, Vernon's Ann. St. Constitution, which provides: '. . . .' This section of the Constitution is a limited grant of clemency to the courts by the people and does not encompass the general authority to grant commutation and pardons. The section itself has been held not to be self-enacting. ''State v. Klein'', 154 Tex.Cr.R. 31, 224 S.W.2d 250 (1949).")
