Guiteau's counsel, recalls Reeds declara-

"Guiteau had been shown to be mental

THE ELooUENCE OF WENDELL

George r. Vending says that the

America platform was Wendell Phillips.

trades unions are responsible for that. Accord
ing to his opinion, railroad employees refuse to
obey the rules laid down by their employers be-
cause the unions are behind them. Now, this
proposition 10 both absurd and false, for on the
contrary, the cardinal principle of every union
is discipline and obedience. Neglect Of duty
and intemperance while on duty are punished
by unions with the utmost severity. Every law
passed by either congress or state legislature to

union bricklayer, and in the managers judg-
mens the man was not doing the

strated, but the bricklayer labored
under the same mistaken impression as that of
Mr.. Prout, and thought the union was bound to
uphold him, be be right or wrong. The mana
ger complained to the president Of the union,
who, upon investigation, found that the man
was not doing fair days work for q fair days

be easily cited were it not superhuous, for by
this time employers know perfectly well that the
name of & trades union is synonymous with So

1t will be asked, what Is the object of this
article. Ny object is to remind society that it is
under deep obligations to trades unions, and to
impress upon it the necessity of rewarding Its

1t cannot be denied that the Republican

Piles OF protection to American labor, is in

motives that prompt that party to protect

maddened public opinion, and SO we hung
Guiteau as morally responsible criminal,
which he was not, for he had been luna
tic for several years. who ought to have
been restrained Of his liberty, as his friends
knew and confessed.
II, when Guiteau shot Garfield, he had
been seized by the crowd and killed like
mad dog. 1t would have been better than
his solemn trial and execution as sane
and responsible murderer. The only obi
Gus thing about Guiteau's execution was
the feeling that q dangerous wild beast had
been destroyed under verdict that de-
clared the murderer legally sane and
morally responsible for his crime, when as
matter Of fact, as DR.. Mcbride in his
pamphlet proved, the poor wretch had
been crazy for years. The trial and e1ecu-
ton Of Guiteau is a revolving record, not
because he was destroyed. but because he
was destroyed as legally sane.
It Is pity society could not treat homi-
cidal lunatics legally as dangerous ami
mails, never raising the question OF moral
responsibility, more than We do when we
shoot mad dog or tiger. Homicidai
lunatics ought to be destroyed If they can
not be kept safely confined for life. They
ought not to be placed among convicts as
morally responsible criminals. 1t would
probably be legally impossible to decree
the execution of q homicidal lunatic as
mad dog upon whom rests no responsible
ity for the consequences of his madness,
snh IL
and since we cannot thus legally destroy
homicidal lunatics they ought not to be
placed in prison with sane and responsible
sonvicts.

If he was medically insane his place was

fold, not in the penitsntiary.
The Rev. DIR. Talmage, of Brooklyn,
with barbarous fippancy and impiety,
boosted in his pulpit that he had 'for
eight Sundays tried to pray for that
wretch. Guiteau, but could not do it." Of
course, If Guiteau was sane, he was a fit
object of needed prayer, according to tho
example Of Christ and teachings of his re-
. igion, and If he was not sane he was not
deserving of contempt, but of compassion.
