THE DILLON CASE.


TfE verdict Ia the Dillon case at
Ogden will scarcely satisfy the public
mind. lie has been convicted Of
voluntary manslaughter. Manslaughter
a. defined IN the law, Ia the unlawful
killing Of human being without NAL
Ice. II IA voluntary when committed
on sudden quarrel or heat Of passion
The full penalty ~ five years imprison-
ment In the penltentiary.
NJ. w. Dillon, while partly intoxl.
Gated, shot aud killed George Mitchell,
n bar tender nj tho Broom Hotel,
Ogden, because he would not drink
with him. A strong effort was made TO
show that Dillon was insane and subject
10 attacks Of epilepsy. This failed,
however, n the verdict shows. II bo
had been adJudgcd insane he would
have been acquitted. IL was expected
that he would be convicted Of murder
In the second degree.
The Idea that rowdy, drinking,
reckless person may slaughter a fellow
creature without Just provocation and
escape with no light n penalty as will
be pronounced IN this case, does not
comport with the public idea Of Justice.
And yet, on critical examination Of
the law, we think II will appear that
theJufy were Justified In their verdict.
Murder, either In tho hrst or second
degree, implies malice aiorelhought.
In this case II did notappesr that there
was any deliberate intention on the
part Of the defendant TO commit q
crime. In sudden passion, while
under tho Influence Of intoxicating
drink, he drew his revolver and
shot the object Of his wrath.
The law provides tina, an act COM
mlltcd by n por-on while intoxicated
n no lees criminal on that account
hut II also provides that when a mo.
tive, purpose or intent Is a necessary
element In the case, the fact Of the
defondanps intoxichtion may be con.
sidofod In determining rs to that mo.
tive or intent. This was doubtless done
In the Dillon ease, and aided the Jury
In arriving ut their verdict.
The case was mos, ably conducted
on either slide, aud gave evidence that
In criminal law Utah IL abreast OF
other parts Of the country 70
far ~ the matter OF talented advocates
Il concerned. Tho trial was pro.
tracled, imparilally reviewed by the
Judge and watched with great Interest
by the public. And while II may
seem that tevcrcr penalty was de.
manded considering tho effects OF the
crime, all things considered the yer.
dict appears conformablc 10 tho
statute.
This case makes good temperance
lecture. II Dillon had been n sober
man he would not, la all probability,
have committed this fatal act aud
stained his soul with tho blood OF q
fellow creature. II he has the ordinary
feelings and conscience Of civilized
humanity, this crime win always
weigh upon his mind and DO a source
Of grief aud opprobrium. We say
nothing Of the business which his victim
followed but that hhc had been better
employed he might now have beon
living In honor. II will DO glad day
for the world when the hell.ntc that
innamea mons passions and bringa
about 70 much ruin aud distress, win be
quenchcd entirely by the foods Of
reason and intelligence which will
some time surely spread over all the
earth.
