The Verdict.

The jury in the Morris murder case
b, their verdict. have said that the
wiltul aud malicious killing OF Il
human being in order To rerpctrate Il
robber! is not murder in the first dc.
* -" and does not deserve any other
len 'ty than imprisonment for life.
That iicuj. \. Morris wilfuliy and de-
liberately took the life Of Frank Los
c:.tero Oh tho 18th day OF November
last, there is not the shadow 81 a
doubt; and that he robbed tho body OF
hi4 victim is equally clear to any UNI
biased mind uniutlucnced by sym
raihy for the defendant and his un-
happy mother nnd relatives.
Tic plea Of insanity made in his
case vas ono Of tho weakest ever sub
nIittcd 10 au intelligent jury aud Ger
tniuly could not have been taken into
consideration in making up tho YER
dict. IL appears to- this writer that
the only cure for insanity Of the Nor.
ris stripe is the iniiiction OF tho death
penalty on all who like him commit
cruel and rowardly murder for the
Tcw paltry dollars their victims may
chance TO have upon their persons. II
it only by the enforcement OF the law
and the punishment OF crimo that so.
ci"ty can bo protected and the citizen
made secure in the possession of
property and the enjoyment OF life.
