o Lord, Save Us.

This frightful picture OF eternal punish
ment is quoted by the Chicago Times
from one Of Elder Knapp's sermons:
.The soul of the impenitent sinner is
plunged by benefcent and omnipotent
justice into the awful lake Of hell.
Weighted with its sins, it sinks down
into the molten pillows, and down and
down for centuries, for thousands and
tens of thousands Of years. Each instant
of this descent is an awful an unendur-
able agony, thousand times worse than
the pressing OF the quivering human flesh
against blazing Goals. Millions OF years
after the plunge, the damned soul rises
from the molten depths, and emerges ON
the surface of the seething pillows. Cast
ing his despairing eyes across to where
the Father sits, he cries: God, is it not
enough% to which the righteous Father,
as His countenance flames with wrath,
thunders in a tone which shakes the vaults
of heaven and hell, down to all eter-
nity.'"

own Territory as an illustation. At
every Legislature bills are intro
duced on every possible subject of
legislation and in almost unlimited
number. The great majority of these
bills as crude in form, but cruder still in
thought. They may very aptly be termed
confounded mess Of confused nonsense I;
and this criticism will apply to the major
ity of bills introduced into the Legis-
latures of the various States and Terrific
ries. The consequence is that the super
abundance Of laws brings the laws into
more or less disrepute with the people.
Laws should only be made to correct
some wrong, change some condition, or
to facilitate the execution Of some law
already in force. The great mass Of the
legislation introduced into the local Legis-
lature is introduced in disregard of these
three things indicated above as justifying
legislation. 1t is an old saying that
"haste makes waste" and nowhere does
this find truer application than in the
passage ofill-advised and ill-digested laws.
1t is not the abundance Of law that makes
community happy or prosperous, or
gives it protection, but the enforcement
of wise and just laws, which enforcement
is brought about by the spirit of law and
order dominating community. tits the
prevalence of the spirit of law that makes
the law respected, and not the mere
presence Of laws upon the statute book
The present Legislature is apt to weaken
their work by making it superabundant

ciety is subserved by refusing to grant
such a person bail? We think none
whatever. Governor Murray's observa-
tions in regard to depriving the courts of
a discretion in the matter Of bail are best
answered by the use Of this discretion by
Judge Zane and Judge Powers. Judge
Zane has always refused TO grant bail
after conviction, while Judge Powers has
granted bail in the very same class of
cases in which Judge Zane has refused
it. Who exercised the wiser and better
discretion, Judge Zane or Judge Powers? :?
Judge Powers, we think, because he used
his discretion in favor of liberty and gave
to the prisoner the benefit of the doubt
which justified the granting of his ap-
peal. We cannot but think that Cover
nor Murray used the veto power in a
harsh and unwise way, but on this mat
ter we shall reserve n final opinion until
we see whether the Legislature amend
the Bail Bill in accordance with the Gov
ernor's observation as to murder in the
second degree and rape, and submit it to
His Excellency for approval, and whether
or not that approval is given.

THE BAIL BILL.

Governor Murray has vetoed the bill
introduced by Representative West max
ing bail matter of right, pending ap.
peal, in all cases where the punishment
is not death. The two cases instanced
by Governor Murray, murder and rape,
it might be we'll to except from the oper-
alton of the bill, and we trust that the
bill will be SO amended as to include
these crimes and then presented to the
Governor for his approval. We do not
think that Governor Murray's reasoning
justifies his conclusions. 1t may be said
that the grounds upon which an appeal
is allowed are sufficient reason
for allowing bail. Governor MUIR
ray refers to the Rudger Clawson
case to show that the present law
has been fully sustained. That it has
been sustained is very true, but there is
wide difference as to the validity of
law and the policy OF the law. Suppos-
ing it were the policy of the Legislature
to abolish capital punishment and bill
to that effect, having passed the House
and Council, were presented to the Gov
ernor for approval, what kind OF reason
would it be for the Governor to say, as
his reason for refusing to approve it, that
the statute imposing capital punishment
had been fully sustained? Near the
close of the eighteenth century. the num-
Der OF crimes in England punishable by
death was very neal. fifty and the laws
punishing these crimes with death had
been fully sustained for some centuries.
What would the world have thought of
the British Parliament had that august
body refused to modify the criminal laws
OF England on the ground that the said
laws had been fully sustained Society
seeks to protect itself by furnishing those
who violate its laws, but society fully
recognizes the fact that when
it Furnishes any violator of its laws out
side of the form and sanction OF those
laws, it transcends its powers and tres.
passes upon the rights of the individuals
composing the artificial body known as
society. What is the reason for granting
an appeal at all? The reason is that So
ciety is organized primarily for the pro-
lection OF the individual and it deems the
liberty and protection OF the individual
where he is ON trial for an offense against
the laws OF primary importance, be-
cause it thinks there is rea-
sonable likelihood that the law has been
transcended by the courts OF law. Now
is not this ample reason for granting bail
to defendant who has taken an appeal
in criminal case? The law holds de-
fendant in custody after conviction that
the law may have control OF his person,
that it may impose its penalty upon him
in case his conviction is said to have been
legal in all respects. The law retains
the custody of his person merely for the
purpose OF executing the penalty OF the
law upon him when the highest tribunal
to which an appeal is allowed declares
that all the forms and requirements OF
the law have been complied with, and
not for the purpose of furnishing him.
II the law can have possession OF the
body of person convicted when it de-
sires TO impose the penalty of the law
upon such person, what interest OF so,

TOO MUCH LAW.

The Herald this morning makes the fol-
lowing just remark in commenting on
Governor Murray's veto OF the Bail Bill :
Very few laws are required The books
are full of laws, and with such as we have
the community has existed and maintained
order, and with only these it will continue
to grow, thrive and prosper.
The remark-"Very few laws are re-
quired-" should be well needed by the
Legislature, and mature and thoughtful
reflection will convince them that this is
true, Not only Utah, but every State
and Territory in the Union, and the
United states themselves, has too much
law. The esult is that great quantity is
give. in place OF great quality. This is
the common complaint all over the coun-
try. 1t became SO great in New York
State two or three years ago that the
sessions OF the Legislature were changed
from annual to biennial, and with the
result that the laws that were enacted
were better in every respect than those
enacted under the annual system, and
they were fewer in number. Take our

A LIST OF FREE TRAVELLERS.

Under the above title, the New York
Sun OF the 22d has an article on the free
pass system. The DEMOCRAT has spoken
of the acceptance of railway passes by
public officials at divers times. We pub
lish the Suns article to show what a
leading Democratic journal thinks of the
matter:
Criminal laws, if wisely framed and prop
erly enforced, may do much to lessen evil
conduct by deterring men from the COM
mission of forbidden acts; but laws Of any
kind can do very little to make men honest.
II a statute were enacted in this State pro-
hibiting the use of free railway passes by
public officers, it would prevent repetition
Chamber at Albany on Wednesday, when
the Clerk publicly distributed passes to such
members as were willing to receive them;
but it may well be doubted whether any real
reform in the character of the peoples rep
resentatives would be produced by it.
The true remedy is in the hands of the
voters throughout the State.
If they want to be represented in the Sem
ate and Assembly by men who accept favors
from the great railroad corporations whose
interests are always liable to be affected by
legislation at Albany, they cannot Justly
complain Of the results of their choice.
If they do not want such representatives,
they need not elect them.
In order, however, that they may be in
formed on the subject whenever member
of the Legislature presents himself for re-
election, it would be well to amend the law
relating to reports by railway companies so
as to compel each company in its annual re-
port to give q list of all persons by whom
free passes had been held during the year.
This list could be printed by the Railroad
Commission, and would be most useful
and instructive guide to voters.
We would guarantee it the largest circu-
lation of any public document printed un-
der the authority of the State.

DUBLIN, July 14-During the rioting at
Belfast, last night, between Catholics and
Protestants, four taverns and q number Of
dwelling houses were wrecked. The police and
soldiers charged the rioters several times and at
last succeeded in clearing the main streets. In
the by-ways however, dangerous knots of men
are lurking and fears of renewal of the
disturbances are entertained Among those
wounded last night was a sergeant; and it is
thought that he cannot recover. A constable
and many civilians received severe wounds
This morning the head constable of Waterford
forced private soldier to attempt to arrest two
Orangemen, father and son. During the strug-

A NEW ExTRAD1r1oN TREATY.

An Agreement Providing for the Surrender
of Dynamite Miscreants.
LONDON, July l4-An extradition treaty be-
tween England and the United States has been
signed. In addition to the customary clauses,
the treaty provides for the surrender of dyna-
mite miscreants. At the Foreign Office to-day
it was stated that when the matter
was ripe communication would be
made to the President in the usual way, and
that the treaty would doubtless be ratified at
Washington after the customary routine. Fur
ther details were peremptorily r, fused. AT the
American legation, Secretary White was greatly
incensed on being questioned in regard to the
matter and refused to admit or contradict the
statement that treaty had been signed, on the
ground that the State Department at Washington
was alone competent TO speak on the subject He
said he was surprised at the indlscretion of the
Foreign Office and quietly closed the inter
view. 1t is thought in diplomatic circles here
that the Socialist troubles in Chicago largely
influenced the American government in making
the treaty.

LEABO'S PERIL.
A Condemned Man Who Is Possibly Innocent

ST.. LOUIS, July A.-There is a strong feeling

man is innocent. He has had three jury trials
the first resulting in conviction, which was re-

suited in mistrial, and the third in conviction,
which the court OF last resort has recently af-
frmed. The prosecution claimed that Leabo
poisoned his wife and threw her body in a well
to escape detection, while the defense holds that
the woman administered the drug with her
own hand and jumped into the well of her own

ing upon this subject with your correspondent,

You have no idea OF the expense entailed

does not pay more than $50 or $40 q year. and

the place for the man whom it was desirable to
put in there. IE one instance made not less
than three trips to Washington solely in behalf
of man who desired to be postmaster at littla

Simply because these Insignificant Offices are

influence than some of the biggest federal Of

party organizations intact, we must look after
these minor matters very closely and for this
reason we are often compelled to expend large
sums of money for very small financial returns.s
