And he turns his pitch fork into a pruning hook when he goes out to cultivate them. SLOW PASSING OF DEATH PENALTY The death penalty is gradually being eliminated from the criminal codes of the various states. It is a slow process, but continued agitation and the trend of pub lic opinion are making steady progress toward some other form of punishment for crime. Capita! punishment is con tinued in 40 of the 45 states. One of the reasons why many influential people oppose the abolishment of the death pen alty is that the crime of murder is in creasing in many states. It is a lament able fact tnat a large percentage of the murderers go unpunished, partly because criminals escape capture, partly because juries shrink from condemning men to death. Many argue that the fear of the death penalty is a stronger deterrent from crime than life imprisonment. In answer to this it may be said that crime has increased in the states that have abolished capitital punishment. The states where crime has increased are thickly populated, and are the places where is naturely to be expected. Chicago has more prisoners awaiting trial for murder than any other large city in the world, with the excoption of St Petersburg and Rome. A few weeks ago, according to the jailer of the county jail at Chicago, the number of prisoners awaiting trial for murder in the chief cities of the world was as follows: St Petersburg 49, Rome 46, Chicago 35, Paris 26, New York 18, Berlin 8. There were none in Dublin. London or Vienna. I: It is evident that there will be no cement walks built this year.
