Whisky Generally the Cause.

In a recent issue of the North
American Review was an article by
the Hon. j.. G. Parker, who for TWEEN
ty-fve years has been judge of the
federal court for the Indian Territory
and the western district of Arkansas.
During this period nearly o thousand
men have stood before Judge Parker,
charged with murder. He has sent
more criminals to the gallows and jails
than any other judge in America.
"When We 60 to facts" said the
Judge, "we find that during the last
six years there have been 1902 HON,
icides in the United States, an average
of 1917 per year. In the same time
there have been 1913 legal executions
and LIS lynchings. These startling
figures show that crime is rapidly in
creasing instead of diminishing. In
the last year 10000 persons were kill

whereas in 1890 there were only 1920,
or less than half as many as in 1895.

increase of the crime which destroys
human life"

Judge Parker replies: "At least three.
fourths of the homicides committed
in this country are attributable, di'
rectly or indirectly, to the use of In
~toxicants."
