A REFORM MOVEMENT.

1t is understood that prominent Sheriff
will propose to the Legislature the pas
sage of bill providing that all executions
must take place in the State Prison at
San Quentin, and at night. The idea is
good one. The REcoRD-UNIoN has re-
peatedly presented the reasons for privacy
of executions, and they are simply unan-
swerable. With ffty-two places of execu-
ton and iifty-two executioners, we have
fifty-two chances of bungling jobs against
one at the State Prison. We have fifty-
two communities to be agitated, and to
certain extent demoralized by execution
scenes We have fifty-two times greater
expense than is necessary, and ffty-two
times as many sensational accounts of
hangings to pieue the curiosity, infame
the Imagination, dull the senslbilities and
pander to morbid tastes; and fifty-two dra-
matte posings by murderers where there
should be none. To make death on the
gallows Infamous, let Us shroud the scene
from light, deprive it of all influences that
appeal to the siekly sentimental, invest its
surroundings with the solemnity of silence
and the asfulness Of seclusion from the
Srorld. Let the victim be practically dead
20 society from the hour of his final coy
viction; let aka be so sequestered that
sensational newspaper reporters and sniv-
cling sentimeni2lists and cranky women
caaeot reach him. He should be removed
to Sen Quentin, known by a number only
smut out from interriewess and the dis
tribators of floral Tributes, and when the
hour Of death arrives he should be dis
patched in the presence Of she necessary
official witnesses and then buried in
the po:tsr's field if there are no friends TO
claim the .sody. So long as we make the
murderer a.hero, give him opportunity to
pose upon the scafiold, publish she sensa-
tional sayings and doings of the assassin in
his last hours, and pour out columns of
gush over bis taking of, We exalt his class
and strip Ehe gallows of the terror il
should inspire among evil doors.

How the Famous Epistle Was Given

Los ANGELES, CAL, Jan. S.-Mr. Os-
goodby, the author of the famous Murchi-
son letter, whose identity was revealed yes
terday, says he did not until few days be-
fore the correspondent ,e was made public
have a conception of its Importance in a
political sense. When he did, the thought of
the far-reaching effects and possible conse-
quences to himself personally rather alarmed
him. Finally, however, after conference
with a few confidential friends in Pomona,
including his two attorneys, =. G. Toner
and w. A. Bell, it was determined to make
the letters public and on Oct. 10 the letters
were brought to Los Angeles by MIR. Bell,
acting for Mr.. Osgoodby. They were placed
in the hands of Judge w. F. Fitzgerald, a
member of the republican state central
executive committee; Henry T. Gage, late
delegate to the republican national conven-
tion, and Col II. G.. Otis, editor of the
Times, and these three decided to publish
the letters without referring them to any
committees, state or national, or to any
other persons, as the campaign was then
far advanced and further delay was deemed
impolitic. They were accordingly published
Oct q in the columns of the Los Angeles
Times, and soon found their way to New
York
