CAPITAL PUNISHMENT.
Tliat thero is n feeling against capital
punishment in tho land is shown by th
fact that during tho post year there wok
only one execution to twelve murder
committed, and it is very possiblo that
the ratio wns even less than that.
Juries are seldom bloodthirsty. T1m
law, is not i avengeful, it is only intended
to punish as a means of restraint to the
criminal element that exists everywhere
and that would run riot nud break up
all semblanco of law if not held to strict
accountability. Theio is a hcntiinent
that holds life as priceless, while tho law
lays in cases of premeditated murder die
penalty shall be, n life for a life. Hut
lor all that tho law is merciful and de
mands convincing evidence to sccuro
conviction. It iu safu to believe that
criminal law deals mercifully, for it de
fends tho rights of tho prisoner so well,
that under its safeguards hulf tho crim
inals Hint aro arrested und tried go free.
As to tho necossity of capital punish
ment let us Iooi: at tho closing scono in
life of the man known ns Archie Drown,
whatever his true name may havo been.
Thousands of people labored with a zeal
tlint must havo bevn biuceie, to havo his
sentenco commuted. What do they
think now, after leading his closing
dpeech on thu gallows, where hu Wisted

bery, nnd recounted his achievements ns
nscoundiell His conduct was n blas
phemy upon Immunity. His dying
words wero not only uaicpcntaut, but
they wero exultant over his criminal ca
reer. In all the records of criminal ex
ecutions thero havo been no cases recited
that exceed tho biazen tmsurance of this

This wound, though slight, aroused
tho nnimal's ire, and in n moment,
before the ritlu could be aimed,
he sprang nl tho hunter. With one
sweep of liis powerful paw ho sent tho
weapon Hying through uiuce. Just as

his title, but no human was visible. Ho
picked it up, and walked to where tho
bear lay. Tho animal was stone dead,
shot through the heart. Ho Uion unload
ed the rille and fouud but eight bullets.
Ho was confident that ho had placed ten
bullets in tho inncazino before startiiiL
j from home, nnd that ho had shot but
once, it was plain then that a bullet
from his own gun, which had exploded
when it struck tho ground, had saved
hislifo. Mr. Smith has tho bear'H hide,
which ho intends keeping as n memento
of tho light. The rillo ho will never part

Wo believed that th''..e im-.i il'Morved
their fnto from the liiiit, mid i.ow .o
hnvo no reason to doubr it. When life
ii so depiiiveil thut munler it found nil
handed, it i. fortillul t t'. law, and
not only to modern n.. , mi nvm nil
timo nud from all nations iiicludini;
that furnished us in th" Sacred Scrip
tures, wo hato handed down tho stern
decree: "Ho that sheddeth man's blood
by man shall his blood bu shnl." Tho
world is well rid of miscreants so hato
that no right of life or property is resjwc:
cd by them and no reasonable Iiojhj re
mains for their reformation.
We naturally shudder when wo re
ulizu that a human lifu is to end ou tho
scatlold. Wo err, however, when wo
estimate such life us valual.lo and look
upon such depravity as human. Wo
cannot justly rate such ti criminal ns
within tho nalo of Immunity. Ho has
forfeited all that, has thrown nwuy our
sympathy and scorned our eiibrts to keep
tho social atmosphere pure. Wo are
never safe froin him. He is constantly
an outlaw, never liesttuting to rob, and
determined to kill if wo oppo&o his rob
bery or his dibits to escape. Capital
punishment is a terror to cut doers nnd
n protection for oiusulve. Criminal
prosecutions double taxes and grievously
add to tho public burdens Something
is duo to oumcIvcs, and to our safely as
citizens, and when such u life as that of
Archie llrown is at stake it has no moio
vnltto and is more dangerous than n ven
emous serpent or n wild beast.
If man can become so base that his
lifo is n blot and his presence a scourgo
if ho is to bo ns much dreaded as a wild
beast and his existence- stands ns n con
stant threat to society, it naturally fol
lows that wo have it light to rid tho
world of him as wo would of a pestilence.
Tho millennial era 1ms not progressed so
fur that we can judg human dopravity
less sternly than when the law was given
at Sinai. Capital punishment is a ne
cessity now if it ever wa necessary, and
its visitation upon iriiuiuals is a solemn
judgment of tho law in tho interest of
those who obey the law und preservo the
State. The sentiinettt that opposes it is
wanting in that stern srms- of justice
that is bom of principle nnd inn bedeaf
to sentiment. Sentiment is unsafe und
oilers no protection u'-uinst outlaws. '
The strong hand of law must hold the
robbers nnd murderers in check, and tho
best security against the latter is tho de
mand, n life forti hie. -Pouland Bee.
