THRxI YEARS FOR JUSTICE.

1t Ii now more than three years
since Robert Buchanan poisoned the
wife he had married for her money. He
was indicted more than three years ago
and he pleaded not guilty more than
three years ago. To-day, after three
years. he pays the penalty for his crime.
Note the delay at every step In the
case. His trial did not begin for nearly
. ysar after his Indictment. That is
the hrst evil and should be charged up
sgainst the District-Attorney's once. to
which most OF the wrongs In admins
tering the criminal law should be
charged. He was convicted in April.
1898, moved for . new trial In June.
argued for II In August and was then
taken 10 Sing Sing to die in October. OF
course. he appealed. and II took until
January Of this year to have that appeal
.deaisd. s.t

. reform II 10 this. We have become 20
careful Of our ordinary criminals that
most Of them lead pieasanter and more
cheerful and altogether more healthy
lives In prison than out. Sing Sing for
most Of them ID . sanitarium. Our
snurdereYs have moro care taken OF their
rights than tens Of thousands Of our up
right fellow-citizens. While ambitious
and able young lawyers exist this will
siways be 20. for there 10 no advertise
ment like making a desperate night for
. mans life. II pays the lawyer whether
he gets or does not get fee. The muir
derer does not need money.
The lawyers themselves must point out
the remedy. 1t 10 nonsense to spend
three years trying to md out whether
. man u guilty Of crime. 1t ought not
to take two years to find out whether a
man was properly convicted of a crime.
The next Legislature should make some
changes In legal practice.
