OUTLAWS INSANITY.

There is . great deal Of speculation
among the people as to the insanity Of
Guiteau. That be had premediated
the assassination Of the president and
had laid his plans accordingly no one
can or will for one moment doubt.
That the laws are inadequate to such q
crime is plainly evident. 1t is now
pretty generally considered that the
president will recover. 10 that case
tho only Punishment that could pos
sibly be imposed upon Guiteau would
be that providing for IN assault with
intent to kill. This would consigu
him 70 imprisonment for time, and
then he would be turned loose te
make similar attempt ut some future
day. There is no accounting tor thu
freaks of insane persons. Guitesu
may take the notion 10 his head thai
he u q modern Savior of his country,
and that bis mission is to kill the M
tons ruler. A second attempt uPor
the life Of President Garfield would
doubtles be attended with success
0ar6eldis life Is worth no more thar
that Of any ordinary man. and thu
punishment should b the same. Ia
this 10 again demonstrated the fact
that in the United States all men are
eqssl before the law. The fact that
the attempt Vas upon the life Of the
chief magistrate Of the people. how
ever. renders the crime . more heino us
ono in the eyes Of the people.
That Guiteau is insane no ODt
doubts, but they demand that his pun
ishment shall be just Is severe as that
of sane person. The plea of in
sanity would be but to establish a bad
precedent for any Office seeker who
might desire to seek revenge BY at
tempting the life Of the president or
any of the members of bis cabinet.
Lot Guitsau receive the full punish
ment he deserves. and let it be speedy
and sure; . warning to all Who have
become imbued With the idea that by
killing the president. like the uihilists
of Russia, they rid the country of q
despot. Gsr6eld's administration has
been such % IL win encomiums from
oil, both friend and foe. If it shall
b brought to . sad termination re.
