In tho barroom we hear tho yeggmun's side of capital punishment from a sociological point of view. In the club we hear the views of some whoBe stomachs have never been empty, and whose hands have never been cold. On the street we jhoar the chatter of the curbstono tat tler. 1 A TIMKI.Y AND SENSIBLE EXH$ES. , the ))re88 we hrap followerg of 8I0X (IX CAPITAL rCNISIIXENT, the lowly Nazarene argue pro and con, WHICH THOSE WHO SUFFEK)and ,)oth ln tho name of Go(1, Aa a 1'KOM CRIMES ARE CONSIDERED. cIimaX we hRVe the lcttcr from a Among the Intelligent partisans the controversy over capital punishment It deepening the channel of moral thorfght and responsibility. Among the superficial, there Is a great deal of twaddle exchanged through the gen erous press. The people have spoken, "but the minority are not yet satisfied, 'That's a limelight finis, a glorious ex tinction, a rare specimen of courage, tut since It Is liable to be a long time before tho two extremes of tempera ture may settle their own, contention, hadn't wo better take things a little more moderate?

When this protect Ion has been questioned by open crime, all agree In a penalty. Tho contention over capi tal punishment 1b not so much one of penalty, sib one of what kind of pen alty. Society has ordained the ex treme limit In some cases. If you base tho penalty upon tho natnro of the crime, we find that the most extreme punishment la frequently Inndequqate. Capital punishment Is as far as we can go ln the line of penalty. We believe the nearest we can come to an adequate remedy In the cose of the lonelv widow of Philomath is to Southern Oregon woman who desires Mact m eye for fln eye , Jn th)g BQ that she might be hung instead of the clety pleases the theologians who are and so wet for the violators?
