To THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES: |
have recently observed in issues Of
your paper the names OF gentlemen
mentioned for the mayoralty of the
city of Roanoke, either OF whom are
gentlemen we'll qualified to fill the
position. But as citizens we have a
particular duty TO perform and place
in that position q gentleman who is
thoroughly qualified, prominent and
faithful in the Councils of the city for
the last seven years, giving his services
and time gratuitiously 70 the many
difficult duties connected with her well
fare. His candcr, aptness and integrity
have always marked his path way in line
OF duty and he is eminensly qualified
from faithful experience to be familiar
with the general operations of the diff
ferent departments and requirements
Of the city.
l allude to r. A. Buckner. Should
he not be averse TO becoming can
didate, it would show true apprecia-
ton of his past services to nominate
and elect him mayor of the city of Roam
oke. In doing so we will have good
mayor, Z good looking mayor and a
good physical representative of our city.

SUICIDE LAW MUST GO.
The MedicO-Legal Society Demands
It's Repeal b. the legislature.

The Medico-LeEal Society Demands
Its Repeal by the Legislature.
The Medico-Legal Society of New York
has prepared a report advocating the re-
peal Of the present law. which provides
for the punishment OF an unsuccessful
attempt at suicide as a crime. Copies OF
the report have been sent to both
branches Of the Legislature. n it will
also be submitted to the Constitutional
Convention.
1t. is signed by the Committee Of the
Society, which consists of Clark Bell,
Chairman; George Trimble Davidson and
Albert Bach, n the reasons given for
demanding the repeal of the law are
that 1t does not operate as a deterrent
to the commission of the crime of sui
eide, but only stimulates the would-be
suicide to higher efforts towards self-de-
struction, thus increasing the number of
crimes; that 1t repeats all former laws
making suicide itself a crime, only maxi
ing the unsuccessful attempt punishable;
that the person attempting the act is
usually insane. inc that In effect the
present statute is practically inopera-
tive. INT that in consequence 1t ought to
be wiped from the books.
