THE Sioux CITY journal lends a friendly

The Sioux City Jounsl lends friendly
endorsement of Gen. T. j. Henderson,
OF Princeton, as fit candidate of the re-
publican nomination for governor. There
are people of all shades of political faith
in Rock Island who wodld rejoice in any
greatness that Gen. Henderson might
achieve through advancement in politics,
But the trouble is Gen. Henderson is not
the man who profits by his own record or
exertion. He stood no show in the eye s
of his party when contrasted with the
Chicago schemer, Farwell for the United
States senatorial nomination and he will
stand no better show for the presidential
nomination. And so while Gen. Hender-
son will plod on in the halls of the ma
tional legislature and accomplish work
too. it will de such men as the late repre-
sentative from this district who will al
tempt to steal his thunder and pose before
the public as having accomplished for the
community the things which another had
brought about.

The closing paragraph OF the letter of
E. S. Wilson declining to be candidate
for the democratic gubernatorisl nomins-
tion in Illineis is declaration of loyalty
furnishing an example worthy the emuls
ton of all true democrats. He says:
The democratic party today. as
in the past, is in the right on
all political questions agitating the minds
Of the people. A party in this posi-
ton should make bold aggressive fight.
Nominate such men as you have good
faith in, who are brave in their faith,
and who are armed at all points, and
ready TO make this fight With such
leaders you will necessarily drive from
place the party that has misruled our
state and nation for 80 years. will

MnLvAjNe's EXECUTION
Dr. Moritt Says the Electrical Execution
Law is Horrible in the Extreme.


Dr. bIoritt Says the Electrical Execution
Law is Horrible in the Extreme.
ALBANY. N. Y, Feb 16.-Evidently
the talk about the cruelty Of the electri-
cal execution is not at an end. Senator
Osborne has received a letter from Dr. j.
Moritt, of Poughkeepsie, an old and
bkillful physician who was witness at
the execution of Mcllvaine.
He SAYS in the letter that he has wit
messed executions in every land, and has
seen men killed by hanging, by sword,
by guillotine, by shooting and by the
Spanish garrotte, and nothing compares
i'm borribleness with the electrocutlon.
He SAYS that the Spanish garrotte is the
only thing that for cruelty equals it. lie
continues;
,.From my medical knowledge, l can
assure YOU that the man was not killed
until the second shock. AS to losing con
sciousness. l doubt it by the symptoms l
| observed. ~
He asserts that the man would have
revived had not the second shock been
! turned on. The body after death pre-
sented a most horrible sight and the face
showed that the man died IN terrible
| agony. DR. Moritt urges the immediate
repeal of the law.
Assemblyman Stein has received
! letter from an electrician named Glp
! bons, in Syracuse, and the inventor OF al
| electrical chair lie says the men wh'
| have had charge of the eiectrocutlon
/ have all been amateurs and unable u

Court Martial Verdict in the
ThrOckmortOn Case.
He IS RECOMMENDED TO MERCY.
The President May Commute the Sentence
to Suspension on Reduced Pay

The verdict VIII Not lie Made Public
untI the President Has Formally
Acted Upon the Matter, But the Above
is the Rumor in War Department-Cnl.
A.P. Morrow Retirss and Thus Escapes
Court Martial for Disobedienco of
OrderH.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 16.-Although the
verdict of the court martial in the case
Of Major Charles b. Throckmorton, who
was tried in New York some weeks ago
on charges of duplicating his pay ac-
counts. will not be officially announced
until the President has formally acted
upon the papers it has become pretty
generally known throughout the War
Department that the sentence is dis
mssal
1t is reported, however, that the SEN
tence is accompanied by a recommends
tion for mercy signed by all the members
Of the court. This circumstance, con :
pied with the officers long service and
The trmeuduous amount of influence at
work in his behalf, will probably spare
him the loss of his commission
IL is generally expected the President
will mitigate the sentence to two or three
years suspension on half or three-quar-
ter pay.
Charges Of diaobcdience of orders re
ders have been made against Col A. L.
Morrow by General Stanley command
ing the Department Of Texas and a court
martial was thought to be imminent,
when his friends nteryeued and induced
him to apply for retirement under the
thirty year service law, the War Depart
ment agreeing to pigeonhole the charges
on condition that the application for re
tirement should follow.
The arrangement will not be fully con
sumated until next August, when Colone
Morrow will complete the thirty years
necessary to enttle him to retirement
The War Department has relieved hin
from his command and ordered him Il
his home in anticipation of that event.
The charges against Colonel Morrow
are based upon certain actions of tha
officer during the recent CARA campaign
One of the principal charges constituting
disobedieuce of orders, recites that Colo
mel Morrow issued passes TO meE Of hi
regiment to pass over the border int
Mexico in the face of positive instruction
prohibiting such rction issued by Genera
Stanley.
Colonel Morrow, it will be rerrer,l set,eo
was tried 10y court martial in this eity
few years ago on charges of dupliuttin
his pay accounts and was suspended TO
three years. lie was an aide to Genera
