On Tuesday morning last William Flagor.
the man who shot Dorgan in drinking saloon
at South Haven and who had been pronounced
guilty OF assault with intent to Kill by jury OF
the county, was brought into Court and SEN
fenced to one years Imprisonment in the State
Prison. When the news reached the street q
young man remarked that this was "the best
county be knew Of in which to shoot men-it
was cheaper than work." We can't help think
ing that there was something wrong about that
sentence. Some three years since Tim Cook
killed stranger on the streets of South Haven,
and was sentenced to 219 years in the State
prison, while at the same term man was con-
vcted OF the theft Of a very inferior two year
old steer. and was sentenced to five years in
the penitentiary. Two drinks Of whisky WAS
the lmpelling cause of the murder, and hunger
Of the mans wife and children the impelliug
cause OF the larceny. Hunger seems TO be
the greater crime.
