CROWDS of boys and girls pack cheap
theater nightly in San Francisco to wit
ness blood and thunder performance in
which a convicted California murderer
and highwayman is presented as hero
and a prosecuted individual, and the Off
GERS of justice are denominated Unsuitable
vampires, bloodhounds of the law and
despicable hirelings, while highway rob-
berry, murder, jail breaking and thieyery
are sugar-coated with invitations to SYM
pathy and intiammatory sentiment. Is
it any wonder that the lawless element
recruits its ranks easily from among such
audiences. Is it surprising that boys and
girls in the metropolis are daily and
erty and the peace of society? Is it at all
remarkable that the footpad hourishes
and groan upon the axles of the law? Is
it a matter to awaken surprise that the
defiance of the law is becoming a virtue
in the eyes of youth, land that their ideals
of manliness and heroism are lowered to
the level of the knight of the road and the
thief? What with vicious, cheap litera-
ture, police gazette lubrications and the
highwayman drama, the outlook for a
fine crop of new criminals is promising.

Forgive us our debts as we forgive our

Forgive US our debts as we forgive our
debtors"
Let us apply these cardinal principles
to the McNulty case. Was he merciful to
the man he murdered? If not, then he
did not come within the category of those
who should obtain mercy. Did he shed
mans blood? Then by man should his
blood be shed. Did he take the sword
Then he should perish by the sword. and
forgiveness to him should be measured by
the forgiveness he manifested toward
mankind. Thus the debt he incurred to
society by the murder of his fellow man
should have been paid according to the
measure of justice or mercy manifested
by him in his unforgiveness toward his
debtor.
Our esteemed correspondent apparently
knows nothing whatever of the underly-
ing principles, by the observance of which
society has evolved penalties for crime,
nor the motive for such penalty, nor the
heinous offense of interfering with the
natural course of justice. Our esteemed
correspondent appears to be equally
ignorant of the body of Christian doc
trine or of the standards of ethics set up
by Christianity. In short, our esteemed
respondent does not think he is guided
by a mawkish sentimentality worthy of
no consideration in the establishment of a
penal code. His doctrine would deny So
ciety the right to infiict the death penalty.
and at the same time accord it freely to
the assassins.
The McNultys and the Patrick Collins's
infiict the death penalty upon slight
provocation. When they are confronted
with the consequences of the ethics
they themselves have established, they
invoke the aid of the Daughters of the
Good Shepherd, who, by lending aid, be-
come the servitors of murder. Then fol-
low petitions to Governors of States for
the exercise of executive clemency, and
in some instances the clemency is exer-
cised only when the court in which the
murderer was fairly tried and duly con-
victed has sufficiently apologized to the
murderer for having found him guilty
and sentenced him to be hanged.
Every such instance of the commuta-
ton of the sentence of redhanded mur-
derers like Men ulty energies the crimi-
nal impulses of the criminal elements of
society. Every such instance finds its
justification solely on the ground that
murderers are the only persons who have
the right to inflict the death penalty for
real or fancied injuries. Every such in
stance denies to society that inherent
right of self-protection, and each case of
the kind is menace to personal safety.

THE VIVA EPISODE.

Some Youths on n Midnight Spree Give
Mrs. Stanford a Scare.
A report was received in this city yes
terday that about midnight on Tuesday
night an attack was made on Mrs. Leland
Stanford's private car at Vina, which
was waiting to be attached to the Oregon
express train coming south.
According to the story published, the
car was attacked and Mrs. Stanford ter
rorized by the rapid discharge of fire.
arms. She was accompanied by her
brother, Harry Lathrop, and her maid.
The RECoRD-UNloN learned last night,
by special telegram from Vina, that
while there was some foundation for the
wild rumor that had reached here, there
was no attack on Mrs. Stanford's car.
1t seems that a number of young men
about Vina were on a spree, and in order
to make as much noise as possible they
discharged their guns in the air. In the
course Of their wanderings the midnight
roysterers went down below the depot,
and some of the shots were fired in the
vicinity of Mrs. Stanford's car, but none
were fred at the car.
Knowing nothing of the cause of the
tusillade, the occupants of the car were
naturally more or less frightened.

ARARE OPPORTUNITY
Good Agricultural Land for $40
to $50 per Acre.

The Pacific Improvement Company has re-
Gently purchased twelve thousand 1cres OF
land in the heart of Tehama County for the
parpose of promoting subdivision and settle
ment. This land embraces lands from first
class Sacramento Valley agricultural land to
land of fair average quality, and is offered at
from SO to $50 per acre, in subdivisions OF
40, 80, 12o, 16o and $50 acres.
The terms upon which these lands are offered
are especially attractive They will be sold in
subdivisions, as above indicated, by the pay
ment of interest only Tor three years, at which
time the purchaser can begin the payment of
principal by paying the first OF five equal an
nual installments. Thus no part of the prin-
cipal is TO be paid for three years, and then
the purchaser is to have five years in which to
pay five equal annual instaliments, with in
terest at the rate of per cent. per annum,
making payments extending over period of
eight years. Intending purchasers are as
suTed that this is an opportunity TO purchase
land of fair average quality at $40 per acre,
and good agricultural land at $50 an acre,
with other grades of land at prices to CORE
spond between these figures.
The assertion is frequently made that good
lands, suitable for general farming, and es-
pecially adapted for fruitgrowing cannot be
had in California for less than from 500 to
SlOO an acre. An examination of the land
subject of this advertisement will prove TO
home-seekers that this is an opportunity for
the purchase of good agricultural land at $50
an acre, and for qualities grading down to fair
agricultural land at $40 an acre, on terms OF
payment which should make the disposition
of these lands to actual settlers result easy OF
accomplishment.
The primary object of the purchase Of this
body of land was the breaking up of large
holding for the purpose of promoting its set
tlement in smaller quantities and its devotion
to diligent husbandry.

the average expenditure of these people
in San Francisco will be $40, and We will

Traffic in Hair.

Eight cars loaded with human hair ar
rived in Paris recently, consigned to
dealers in that merchandise. The hair
came from India and China, whence
thousands of pounds are annually sent to
England and France. This traffic, a
foreign medical journal says, is the cause
of the introduction of many diseases to
Europe. The hair is cut from persons af-
ter death in China, and although it is dis
infected upon arrival in France, it often
carries the germs of disease. Asiatic
hair. owing in part to it's coarseness. can
be purchased cheaply. it selling often as

THE authorities at Washington are ex-
ceedingly and annoyingly reticent in the
giving out of news in which all the peo-
pie are interested, and concerning which
there is no pressing reason for secrecy.
Why. for instance, not have given out at

about Benham's gallant action at Rio?
All the authorities gained was about
twelve hours of secrecy at the most and
what did it profit the Nation?
