WQer6 a person Oh SOUND mlnQ ana QlScr6-
ton unlawfully killed a reasonable being in
the peace OF the United States, with malice
sforethonght. 1t had to be proved, first, that
death was caused by the act of the accused,
and further, that it was caused with malice
aforethought That did not mean, however,
that the government had to prove any ill-will
or hatred on the part OF The accused toward
. the deceased. Wherever homicide was shown
to have been committed, without lawful
authority and with deliberate intent,
it was sufficiently proved to have been done
with malice and forethought, and malice was
not dsproved by showing that the accused had
no personal ill-will to the deceased and that he
killed him from other motives-as, for instance
robbery, or through mistaking him for another
or las claimed in this case) to produce public
benefit. II it could be showed that the killing
occurred in heat of passion or under provoca-
premeditated attempt and therefore no malice
aforethought, and that would reduce the crime
to granddaughter.
1t was hardly necessary however, to say that
there was nothing of that kind in the present
case. The jury would have to say either that
the defendant was guilty of murder or that he
was insane. In order to constitute the crime
of murder the assassin must have
a reasonable mind; in technical terms he
must be "of sound mind, memory and
discretion. IAN irresponsibly insane man
could not permit murder. If he was laboring
uDQ6r q ulS6dS6 VI bHo u0Hbhl ldCulGloS W SuCu
an extent that he did now what he was doing
or did not know it was wrong, then he was
wanting in that sound mind, memory and dis
erection that was part of the definition of
murder. In the next place every defendant
was presumed innocent until the accusation
against him was established by proof. In the
next place Notwithstanding this presumption
of innocence it was equally true that defen-
dant was presumed to be sane and to have been
SO at the time the crime was committed; that
is to say, that the government was not bound
to show afirmatively as part of its proof that
the defendant was sane, as insanity was an ex-
ception. and as majority of men are sane the
law presumed the latter condition of every
man until some reason was shown to believe
to the contrary. The burden was therefore on
she defendant who set up insanity as an excuse
for the crime to produce proofs in the first in-
stance to show that that presumption was mis-
taken so far as it related to the prisoner.
The crime therefore involved three elements:
killing, malice and a responsible mind in the
murderer After all the evidence was before
the jury, if the jury, while bearing in mind
both those mptions-that is, that the de-
PENDANT is innocent till he is proved guilty,
and that he is sane till the contrary appears
(still entertained what is called reasonable
The Portland daily press. [volume] (Portland, Me.) 1862-1921, 1882-01-26

must draw their own conclusion from the evil
denee.
The instructions he had already given to the
jury impaired that the true test of crimi nal
responsibility, where defence of insanity was
interposed, was whether the accused had sutfi-
Gent use OF his reason to understand the ma
ture OF the act with which he was charged
ard to understand 1t, was wrong for him to
commit it. If these were facts he was crimi-
nally responsible for the act, whatever pecui-
arities might be shown of him in other re-
spects On the other hand, if his reason were
SO detective, in consequence of brain dieease,
that he could not understand what he was do
ing, or could not understand that what he was
doing was wrong, he ought to be treated as an
irresponsible lunatlc, as the law assumed every
one, at the outset, to be sane and responsible.
The question was, what was there in this case
to show the contrary as to the defendant? The
jury was not warranted in inferring that
man was insane from the mere fact of his COM
nlitting crime, or from the enormity of the
crime, because the law presumes there is bad
motive, and that the crime is prompted by
malice. III nothing else appears, perhaps the
easiest way far jury to examine into the sub
ject was, first, to satisfy themselves about the
condition of the prisoners mind for reasona
BILE period of time before any conception of as
sassination had entered it, and also at the
present time, and then consider what evidence
exists as to different condition of mind at
time Of the commission of the act. He should
uOG Speuu any tllno Oh bnS nfSL quoS-
ton, because, to examine it all would
require review of the evidence
relating to over twenty years of the prisoners
life and has been so exhaustively discussed by
the counsels anything he could say would be
wearysome REPETITION. 1t was enough to say
that on one side this evidence was supposed to
show chronic condition of insanity before
the crime, and on the other side to show an
exceptionally quick, intelligent and decided
power of discrimination.
The jury would have to draw its own con-
clusion: Was the prisoners ordinary perman-
emit chronic condition of mind such that he was
unable to understand the nature of his actions
and to distinguish between right and wrong in
his conduct Was he subject all the time to
insane delusions which destroyed his power SO
to distinguish, and did those continue down to
and embrace the act for which he is on trial?
If SO he was simplp an irresponsible lunatic.
On the other hand had the ordinary intelli-
gence of sane people so he could distinguish be-
tween right and wrong as to his actions? If
another person had committed the assassina-
tion would the prisoner have appreciated the

against soft glove" contests, as that
between Sullivan and Tug Wilson,
Mr.. Bergh very correctly denounces
them as brutal, and in a letter to the
mayor OF New York, states that the
decent people Of the city look "to
that officer to protect them from a
recurrence Of such disgusting and
ancivilized Eorgies." lie also asks
how it is that the citizens Of New
York pay $3O,OOO.0OO a year for mu-
nicipal government, and yet such
scenes as the Madison Square Gar

eddy Mr.. Bergh is very good man
filled with all manner Ofgood inten-
fions; but he seems to go the wrong
way about accomplishing his pur-
poses. A glove fight like the Sulli-
Fan-Wilson affair is unquestionably
an exhibition of brutality that
ought not to be seen in a moral,
Christian community; but when
$1,000 men and women crowd
through the doors of the garden,
and pay from 81 to SIS for the
privilege of witnessing the
show, it is no easy matter to sup
press the affair. Mayor Grace and
she police might possibly be vigiIant
enough to prevent the mill in New
York, but it would be given else
where and New Workers be its chief
Ratrons. Sullivan and Wilson did
not hammer each other because they
enjoyed either beating or being

mauled for the money which the
krutilized among New YOrk's people
gave to witness the encounter. II

THE PEOPLE of Utah have
feared lust what the United States
Sc late has done and what it is more
than probable the House OF Repre-
sentatives will concur in. Reference
is made to the comforting upon the
Governor of the territory power to
fill by appointment offices that be-
came vacant by reason of the lapse
of the election. This is just what
certain few have been playing tor,
and they believe that through this
power can they soonest get control
of the territory. Fortunately there
are not many of the really important
offices that were to be filled at the
election on Monday, so that if his
excellency should receive the ap-
pointing power, and it should be
decided that failure to elect
a successor brings the term
of Office to an end,
though the commission runs
"until the successor is elected and
qualified" the Governor will not
capture much of Utah this year. 1t
s hoped thai before the date for the
next registration the commission
will find time to come to Utah and
prepare for the election. Meantime,
should Mr.. Hoar's proposition be-
came law, the people of Utah ought
to unite as one and petition for the
removal of the present Governor,
and the appointment of a man who
will be fair in the performance of
the important duty of appointing
men to office. The Governors rank
prejudice and extraordinary fana-
ticism make him a very dangerous
person to be entrusted with so much
power.
