LAW Is 100 GENTLE
In the Case of Rape, in Judge
Rurford'S View.
IN PASSING SENTENCE
On Henry Morgan He Regrets
1t Can't be Death.

Guthrie, o. T., Nov. 2.-Henry Morgan
pleaded guilty in the district court t
| the crime of rape which was committed
on the person of I-year-old BIanchs
Engert near Langston City last summer
He was sentenced to twenty years in the
penitentiary and in passing sentence
Judge Burford expressed his regret thai
the prisoner was not tried under the fed
eral statute. which provides the death
penalty for the crime OF rape.
Judge Burford said: "You have entered
plea of guilty to one of the lowest,
most degrading, inexcusable and heinous
crimes that human being can commit.
1t is true the law fixes a more severe
punishment for the crime of treason and
murder, yet in my judgment, the crime
of rape is more OF crime against society
than treason or murder. In some states
the punishment IS death, and under the
federal laws, one who commute the crime
of rape in q place over which the United
States exercises exclusive Jurisdiction, is
punishable by death. There have been
more murders committed, more resorts
to mob violence, more riots and more
lynchings as a result fthis crime than
of all others combined. While the law
does not justify the taking of life for
rape, yet society cOmmends the deed of
the father who Stays the destroyer Of
his innocent daughter. Personally, I
should never want to take the life of
my fellow-man. If one should murder
har Of 60 I Iyjll o1
the murderer on the spot in the heat of
passion, could not feel justified. If one
was despoiling me of my property, 1
would not feel justified in Staying him
unless it was done in self-defense. of my
life or some member of my family. But
If some fiend In human form should rape
my daughter and rob her of that pre-
cious jewel which he could not restore
to her, l would feel like following him
with an unrelenting and reyengeful spirit
until I had taken from him that which
could not be restored to hin-yet the laws
would not Justify such a course. But I'M
der such conditions l feel that my state
of mind would be such that I would not
take into consideration the consequences
to myself. Our statute fixes the punish
ment in the penitentiary at not less than
ten years. 1t may be for life. This IS
the law and we yield to 1T. But had 1
the making of the law and though this
statement may destroy my chances of
ever being a lawmaker, would make
the punishment for this crime mutilation,
emasculation, castration complete. If one
has not the power to control his pas
sions he should be placed in a condition
where his passions could not result in
INJURY to others, and If he. can control
them, and yet fails to do so and resorts
to force and violence to crafty his de-
sires, then he should be placed where
he could do no harm to others. You
have by force and violence robbed
young girl Of her virtue-have placed a
blight upon an innocent young life by
the commission of a beastly and inexcu-
sable crime. The law fails to do justice
to your offense."
Morgan was sentenced to the peniten-
tiary for twenty years.

A. J. STINNETT UNDER ARREST
His Wife Only Slightly Wounded
SteDdaughter NAV Recover

Guthrie O. T, Nov. 24-The Okiaho-
man of Oklahoma City announces that
A. ]. Stinnett the man who shot his
wife and stepdaughter Tuesday night, is
in the countr jail, having been arrested
near his home early yesterday morning
by Deputy Sheriff Hauk and a posse. His
stepdaughter is still alive and the at
tending physicians think there is a chance
that she viii recover. Mrs. Stinnett was
only slightly wounded and is, attending
the bedside Of her daughter. Deputies
Hauk and COuchman went to Stinnett's
house yesterday morning, arriving there
at o'clock. Stinnett had not been seen
since the shooting and the officers at once
began the search for him. They soon
found the place where Stinnett had passed
the night II was in a grove about
half mile from the house. While they
were searching Stinnett came out into
the open and Hauk arrested him without
difficulty. According to Stinnetts story.
he took a large quantity Of strychnine
and was deathly sick all night, the fact
that he did not die being due no doubt
TO the fact that he had taken too much.
He had chewed one Of hi singers TO a
gave him breakfast and dressed his fin
ger. She uttered no word Of reproach
for the awful wrong Stinnett had done
TO herself and daughter. Stinnett would
not talk of the affair but from other
members Of the family it was learned
that there was never any trouble between
Stnnett and his family. save when he
was drinking. The neighbors considered
him a good citizen and a good church
member, except when he was on an occa-
sional tear. Sheriff Copeland. who was
for a long time a near neighbor Of Stin-
nett, says that he always found Stinnett
q good neighbor, good for his debts and
obligtng to his friends. Since being taken
10 jail, Stinnett has been quite sick, but
was somewhat improved last night. Feel
ing among his neighbors IS pretty strong
against him
