Justice courts whatever, being part of the
act providing for the execution of the death
penalty long since abolished in our state,
and then quoting Sec. 1894, c. L., 1871, he
continues: mo one would for moment ar
que that this law was in force in 1871
Well. no particular argument is needed on
this point. 1t is simple fact that such law
was in force at that time and is in full force
TO day. Michigan has never abolished the
death penalty, notwithstanding the confident
statement of MIR. Heron. 1t is true there is
mo hanging for stealing, nor for murder in
our state, but Chap. 243 c. l.. 1871 prescribes
the death penalty for treason, and tells how
that crime mustbe proved, while Sec. 80, Art.
g, of the Constitution defines that offense,
and the statute referred TO by our critic pre-
scribes how the penalty shall be inflicted.
As to whether the law applies to Justice
courts or not we reply; the title of the chap
ter in which il is found reads: Judgments
in criminal cases and the execution thereof"
There is nothing in the title to the act, nor
in the law itself, indicating that il does not
apply 10 ali courts having any criminal iuris-
diction. The language of the section is GER
talnly broad enough TO include all courts,
and there being nothing in the law limiting
1t 10 any particular court or courts, the plain
and obvious construction is, that il means
just what il says, and is applicable TO all
cases of fine and Imprisonment.
MIR. Heron attempts to show how the old
prohibitory law of 1900 worked q repeal of
the statute under consideration. because it
provided that FOR third ofense the offender
should forfeit 500 and costs, and in MIDI
tim thereto should also suffer imprisonment.
That statute was at the most but quasi Grim
inal, and did not provide for fine and inn
prisonment:' did not make violation of the
act misdemeanor, as does the liquor law of
1881. but provided for the recovery of for
feiture to the people of the state, in all
dctt0H # dot. giving the people the same
right OF appeal as the defendant had, which is
never the case in criminal action. But had
II been criminal statute. the peculiar Ian
guage of the act would have exempted it
from the operation of Sec. 1887, as it re-
quired an Imprisonment tn 0ddLtt0a to the
forfeiture, and did not come under the class
of cases covered 10y that section. The pen
atty under the prohibitory law was recovered
in al action, civil in form, as all penalties
and forfeitures may be, where the offense is
not made a misdemeanor. and where not
otherwise provided. 1t is too plain for argu
ment, that this statute had no relation what
ever TO section 1887.
Further discussion of this subject would
prove neither interesting nor profitable, We
confess we are wholly unconvinced by Mr.
| Herron's argument, and until such time as
the question shall be decided by higher
court, each magistrate before whom liquor
case shall be brought will have to construe
the statute according to his own best judg-
ment, and act as he deems just and right il
the premises.
