z-A perfect tornado of murder, in.
cendiarism, and devilish crimes in general
deems to be sweeping over New England
at this time. There can be no doubt that
the %inadequacy Of punishment does much
to embolden criminals. If a murderer is
convicted and sentenced to the death pen.
atty there are plenty Of sentimental fools
10 petition for a rcpricve, or even a par.
don, on the ground of emotional insanity,
or some other senseless synonym for a
criminal disposition. A vile incepdiary
is pardoned out after u short imprison.
ment, and it has been shown that the nv.
erage term Of Imprisonment Of criminals
is but a small fraction Of the time for
which they are sentenced. 1t seems to
be settling into 4 conviction with thinking
men that the pardoning power as now ex-
ercised by executives is an abuse and an
imposition. Lcniency in dealing with
villains has been tried long enough and
has been proved to be a failure. No mans
life is safe while the soft.heartedness Of
judge, jury or governor, render the plain
law null and void. If emotional insanity
is to be the accepted excuse for every
horrid crime, then the sooner the public
with hemp, the safer it will be for
the public. Let courts and executives be
afflicted with emotional insanity sufficient
to string up murderer, promptly upon
conviction. and we should hear of fewer
such foul murders as We have recently
had to record,
