The doctors and experts who wit
messed the execution of kemmler by
electricity say now, that from the NOM
ent the current first passed through his
body he was dead and unconscious and
experienced no pain. They also made
this assertion at the end of the first
eighteen seconds, but changed their
minds in a couple Of minutes, thinking
that the muscular contraction. conse-
auent upon so severe a shock, was an
evidence of respiration or recovery of
consciousness. It was then that they
gave him the second shock of 1000
volts, continuing it until the body COM
menced to burn and smoke. It was
this action on the part of the physicians
that made the execution horrible. Had
they done nothing after the current was
first cut off, the satisfaction with cleo
trocution would have been much more
general than it is under the existing cir
cumstauces.

Some papers, Democratic ones prin-
cipally, would have us believe that the
election of Merriam means the defeat of
G. X. Davis for the U. S. Senate, two
years from now. No doubt Mr.. Mer-
riam would like to have it mean that,
but there is a way to prevent it. Let
each county select as its representative
in the legislature, that elects a senator,
a man who prefers brains, honesty and
ability to anything else. Merriam can
make first class governor but he is not
the man to set aside Cushman X. Davis
as United States Senator.

The report Of the bureau of statistics
on immigration for the past fiscal year
shows total immigration of 45l, 219
against 458,619 for the year ending
June 80, 1889. The feature Of the re-
port is the change noticeable in the
sources Of immigration. The movement
from Great Britain, Germany, Norway
and Sweden is decreasing. German
immigration decreased over 1000; that
from Sweden and Norway fell off about
5000 from the previous year. The in
crease is from Austria, Italy, Poland
and Russia. The increase Of Austrian
or Austro-H Hungarian immigration
is $4,000; that of Italy, $4,000; Poland,
1000; Russia, 700. The Hungar-
ians are coming in large numbers.
It is evident from the report that the
quality of the immigration is really
deteriorating. This is to be regretted
and is all the more reason why con-
gress should restrict immigration.

At last the world and cou1ts are rid
of Kemmler, the New York murderer.
The execution took place at the Auburn
States prison between six aud and
seven o'clock last Wednesday morning
and while it cannot be said that it was
a failure, none of the witnesses can ad.
vance the statement that il was COM
plete success. 70 be sure, it killed
the plisoner-killed him quick, but
the CHASTITY treatment, given his body
in continued shock of five minutes
duration, when the current was at 1000
volts, was enough to disgust anyone
with the manner of the execution. This
of course may be avoided in future ex-
periments, if there ever are any, but
the accounts of Kemmler's death will
go but little way towards making cleo
trocution the established mode Of pun-
ishment. If we are to believe the re-
ports it was an exhibition of bungling
work that was far worse in its horrors
than hanging.
