Our hanging theory is beautifully
simple. Every person who has not
committed crime for which death
is just penalty, is entitled to live,
and to kill such an one is murder IN
in the hanging degree. Every MUIR
derer of such n person should be
hung, no matter whether sane or in =
sane, DRINK or sober, old or young,
rich or poor, saint or sinner, male
or female. And any person who
kills another, and can show due
cause and necessity, should be ac-
quilted. This plan does away with
all humbug in the hanging or nom
haning line of business. and it
would soon abolish the emotional
insanity" class of martyrs, and OBJ
vlate the legal necessity of securing
twelve idiots on every jury in a MUIR
e der case And it would pretty
aauch suppress the numbering
mania, in all parts of the country.
We would like TO see il put into
practice.
