en-Dr. southwick Ridicules the Hor-
rible Story Told of Kemmler's Taking
on, and Says He Died Absolutely
Without Pain-English Editors Go Into
Commissions Over the Matter.
NEW YORK, Aug. S-Gen Daniel +.
6ickles, sheriff of New York, in an inter-
view expressed the opinion that the exhi-
bition in the death-chamber at Auburn
prison would not have the slightest inflS
ence in the repesling of the law
"Why should the law be repealed?" he
asked "Simply because this man suf-
fersdS Nonsense He deserved to suffer,
and the greater the suffering the greater
will be the deterring effect on the muir
derous creatures of his llk"
Has No Sympathy for Wife Butchers.
"But, general" suggested the reporter,
athe ostensible reason why the law was
substituted for the old law was that it was
supposed to provide a more civilized way
of putting criminals to death. Their suf-
ferings were to be decreased as much as
possible"
"Yes, understand that, and let me say
right here that the maudlin sentiment of
sympathy for these wife butchers and
other brutes, stimulated by alleged con-
version, is altogether wrong. Men like
this Kemmler should be punished, and if
their punishment is enhanced by the latest
method of execution it is not cause for
sorrow by any means.
If You Only Give 1t Time.
But aside from that, granting that the
new law was intended to make death an
painless as possible, it has by no means
been demonstrated that the execution was
failure. 1t was the first attempt, re-
member, and as successful, imagine as
was the first attempt at hanging a MUIR
derer or crucifying him. Electrocution is
an art that has to be acquired by practice,
and after three or four scoundrels have
been put out of the way by this method,
then things will, no doubt, move more
easily"
''Then you are not in favor of abrogat-
ing the law"
Terror May BE Good Thing.
"By no means l guess it is very good
law. II provides good way of Furnishing
these persons whose minds run to slaugh-
ter, and the terrors of it will make the as
sassin pause before he murders his victim
with the knife or pistol with poison or
the club. There will be no trouble at all,
and the fellows who think it is a good
time to carry out their murderous designs
on defenseless women because sickly
sympathy has been worked up for this
man kemmler had better go slow. They
will be shufiied off right along without a
hitch of any Consequence"

THE Rocky Mountain Neaos and the
Times at Denver have been sold to syn
dictate headed by Assistant Postmaster
General Clarkson and Senators Teller

absolute control of the consolidated pa

100000, and for the Times $500, 900.
This large transfer of newspaper prop
erty has mole than ordinary significance
attached to it, For years the Rocky
Mountain Netcs has been the fearless and
able exponent of democratic doctrine in
Colorado and adjoining western states.
It's circulation is enormous, and it has al
ways been thorn in the republican side.
Its purchase and consequent change of
political faith is serious blow to de-
mocrscy in the west, and unless some de-
cisive steps are taken by the party leaders
to found new paper the democratic
party will be sadly crippled in that Sec

An Electrician Who Denounces the Meth
od-The Newspapers.
LONDON, Aug. S.-Mr Preece, chief efec-
trician of the postoffice department, in an
interview last evening, recalled the fact
that he had denounced the use of cleo
tricity for the execution of criminals be-
fore the British association in 1899 He
reiterated the views he expressed at that
time, and declared that he did not believe
powerful Leyden battery effective in the
taking of life. The American plan. he
thought, was as good as any, but the diff
fculty was to know what amount of cleo
tricity was certain to produce death with
out torture. From a scientific point of
view he thought the execution of Kemm-
Ter was a failure.
One Editor Who Is Not Worried.
All the papers except The Pail Mall
Gazette go into commissions of indigna-
ton over the horror, as they term it. The
Gazette tells its contemporaries to go
slow, that the American people are too ten
der with criminals rather than too severe:
that the published accounts do not Justify
the assertion that Kemmler suffered a
particle and that all the heroics are with
out any justification in fact. Not an ex-
pert who attended the execution can be
quoted as asserting that Kemmler felt
anything after the electric contact was
made.
