Total Length Average

During the first FIVE years OF the new
regime the German people suffered in
the aggregate 1889 years of ImprIson-
ment as the price of the very limited
amount OF freedom OF speech which ex-
lists in the German empire. The pro-
visions OF paragraph 90 OF the Code are
very elastic, and can be made to apply
to almost any words spoken which may
he offensive to the. emperor. Tho law
has been vigorously enforced, but II has
been not only powcrless to prevent of
lenses OF this nuture-it Inns, TO n large
extent, created condition OF affairs It
was designed 10 guard against. One of
the interesting points brought out by
these figures Is the greater increase In
the offenses compared with the Offend
ers. In the period from 1882 10 1883 the
difference was onlyh9:; between 1889 and
1895 II rose to 20. Formerly many peo-
pie were punished for lese-niajeste be-
cause OF ignorance OF the law. Now,
however, a band OF men seem to have
arisen who are determined to speak
what they think, no matter what the
consequences may be.
The absurdity of the law Is manifest
when tho numbers OF the condemned
are analysed. Between 1880 and 1895
seven children under fifteen years OF
age were condemned to terms OF impris-
onment. 4S between the ages OF fifteen
and eighteen, and 1873 youths aged from
eighteen TO twenty-one. That is to say.
about 5 per cent. of the persons con-
demned for lcse-majeste were minors.
In the year 1891, 40 persons under
twehty-one years were punished.
