JUDGE pARKER'S REMEDY.

Judge l. c. Parker of the west
ern division of Arkansas gives
utterance to plaintive wall,
through the North American Re
view for the present month, as TO
the increase i'll number Of homl-
cldes in the country, and attempts
to point out the ways in which 1t
can be checked.
He shows that for the last SIX
wears there has been an average
of 1917 murders per-yeal, while
for the period mentioned there
have been only 723 legal execu-
tions and LIS lynchings. These
are figures which will cause law
abiding men to cry out in amaze
ment. 1t would have been a little
more satisfactory, however, II
Judge Parker had endeavoIed TO
place before the public the number
of convictions rather than the
number of legal executions. There
are some states in which capital
punishment has been made illegal,
and in which as consequence
there is never an execution. And
in most OF the states, there is q
tendency to commute the sentence
of death to one of life imprisOn-
ment, where the governors find
the slightest reason for the exten-
sion of clemency. This is only an
evidence of the tendency toward
greater humanity in the world, for
after all not many Of the large
number of murders committed can
Justly be described in the legal
phraseology-willfully, malicious
" and Of malice aforethought
As for lynchings, they are gener
ally the penalties OF unusual
crimes committed on the helpless
with ii brutality which moves men
to frenzy.l
What is Judge Parker : remedy!
He would abolish the resort tC
appellate courts, which, it is
noticeable, have reversed a large
number of the verdictS rendered
against many over whose trial he
presided. Would it be right tC
deny to a prisoner the right tC
appeal against a judgment render
ed in court by jury which had
been influenced by judge who
had converted his charge into q
harangue against him!
The rights of society are sacred.
SO are those of men accused OF
crime, who, though they stand il
the dock, are entitled to legal pro
lection against the passion of the
moment which often leads to the
conviction of the innocent. Muir
der may be on the increase, but
Judge Parker has not yet found
the way to decrease it. Appellate
courts furnish a safeguard against
the hasty judgment of juries ant
the Incorporate charges of judges
of lower courts. Republic.

THE NEW WOMAN.
She Is the Cause of a Big Sensation in
 Missouri.

MANSFIELD, Mo-, June 26.-The advent of the new woman at Mountain Grove, this county, has caused big sensation and at present the town is divided. A night or two ago some of the leading society belles of the place appeared in bloomers at public enter tainment. This was enough to shock all the good sisters of the various churches and many denounced the act of the young women as outrageous.
 The Weekly Hornet took sides with the church people, and, in describing the affair, said it was most miserable attempt to initiate the new woman, as some of the costumes were actually vulgar, closing with an appeal for greater efforts toward modesty on the part of the young ladies.
 The Advertiser is championing the cause of the young ladies, while the leading minister has shocked his con- gregation by coming out squarely for the new woman under the plea of dress reform. The best families of the town are strongly arrayed against each oth- CT, but who will come out on top re- mains to be seen.

THE WOLFLEY CLAIM.
It Is Strengthened by the Recent Fund
 ing Bond Act.

Yesterday the appeal of the Gila Bend Reservoir and Irrigation con- pany was perfected in the forwarding to the clerk of the supreme court at Washington of the papers, transcript and brief of appellants.
 It was something of busy day with President Lewis Wolfiey of the canal company. He has claim against the territory, which now with accrued in terest, amounts to about $8,000, for expenses incurred by him while gov ernor in the interest of the territory. The grant of the funds, made to him by the legislature, has been declared illegal because of excess of appropria- tion, in violation of the Harrison act. The late act, passed by congress at the instance of Delegate Murphy, legal izing all debts incurred heretofore, is also held to sweep away all difficulties in the collection of this sum, and SO Governr Wolfley called upon the ter ritorial auditor again yesterday and presenting his claim and a copy of the appropriation act, asked for warrant for the funds.
 The matter was referred by Auditor Leitch to the attorney general.
