ton to aboliShng the death penalty is
largely due to the fact that the sentence
of life Imprisonment often means 50 lit
tie. In the states where that law pre-
wallis, friends and relatives of men known
to have committed atrocious murders
have too often succeeded in securing
pardon after the guilty one has served
a comparatively short term of imprison
ment. 1t is often claimed that imprison
ment for life is a much more severe pun
ishment than death. That may be so. 1t
is also claimed that such a penalty is a
stronger deterrent than capital punish
ment. That may also be true. But to
make it effective in either of these re-
spects the possibility of pardon must be
removed except of course. upon the dis
covery of absolute proof of the inno-
cence of the condemned.

THE MILEAGE RAKE-oFF.

Yellowstone Leader: The provision In
the laws of this state which allows a
sheriff ten cents a mite for the round trip,
and also ten cents a mile one way for
every con1 let transported to the state
Iehitentiary is an outrage upon the tax
Payers of Montana. Under the provis-
ions of this law it costs the people some
thing in the neighborhood of $50 to send
convict from this place to the penten-
tiary at Deer Lodge. The regular rail
way fare is about one-third of that
amount. But sheriffs do not pay regu-
lar fare. They all travel on passes. The
actual cost of transporting man to
Deer Lodge including his meals. amounts
to six or eight dollars, and tie actual
cost is every cent that should be al
lowed. The sheriff receives ample COM
pensation in the salary of his Office and
it is wrong to allow him additional sums
for personal >eXpenses as we'll as an addi-
tional fee for every service rendered.

the abolition of this slaring abuse. 1.r

He had been invited to speak at meet

vised the trustees, whenever they We're at
ter aid, for the institution, to secure spot
cash and not deal in futures. Then he
told a story to illustrate his point as fol-
lows:
l remember going to a church in Hart
ford one hot night to hear a city mis-
sionary read his report. The report
contained instances of herOSm and devo-
ton and of acts of kindness done by the
poor for the poor. l had $500 in my pock-
ct l determined to put it into the mis-
sionary's hat when it was passed around.

and talked. the people grew sleeper. My
first feelings of generosity, which l had
imagined would last a year. went down,
down, down. down and finally when the
hat was passed around instead of putting
my $400 into it l stole a dime out of it.

CAPITAL PUNISHMENT.

The discussion regarding capital pun
tshment still goes on. We observe that in
these states where the death penalty has
been abolished the agitation is for it's
restoration while in those states where it
is in force, there is a strong movement to
have it done away with.
Conservative old Maine stands forth
just now as conspicuous example Back
in 1887, the law was changed to have the
infiction of the extreme punishment op-
ticnal with the governor and so it re-
manned until 1876 when capital punish
ment was wholly abolished, life impris-
onment being substituted as the penalty
for. murder in the first degree This ac-
ton was unquestionably due to the Isle
OF Shoals case, when "a man universally
believed to be innocent was hanged
In 1883, capital punishment was again
restored there, but after four years it
was once more lerea ed. During the past
few months. however, Maine has been
shocked by number of atrociOus muir
ders and bill has been introduced in the
Legislature to re-estabish the death pen
atty. The state has certainly had a wide
experience in the operation of both forms
of punishment, and the settled opinion
there appears 10 be that capital punish
ment is essential. 1t is believed it will be
restored.

TUESDAY. JANUARY %. 1901.
THE TRAGEDY OF A GENIUS.

A few days ago Prof. Elisha Gray, n.
Sc, of Chicago, died at Newtonvile,
Massachusetts,, where he was visiting
Arthur J. Munday. A wonderful man
MAS Prof. Gray and his career is as
strange as anything in fiction. In the
opinion of a majority, perhaps, who have
investigated the subject, he was the in
Nentor of the speaking telephone, and
not Prof Bell. AS it was. he died very
poor while Bell made millions.
Prof. Gray was born in Ohio in 1888
and as a lad. graduated from a black
smith shop. His love of knowledge was
Unborn, however. and he managed to get
to Oberlin college where he rema med five
years. devoting all of his energies to
physical science. He outstripped his pro-
fessors and for them constructed new
apparatus. For six years after leaving
Oberlin, he studied electrical science,
then in its infancy. and his first inven-
ton was telegraph relay. In 1873,
while studying electro harmonic tele-
sraphy, he discovered the principle of
the telephone. His nephew was amusing
himself with small induction coil and
had connected one end of the secondary
Coil to the zinc lining of the bath tub
which was dry. Holding the other end
of l. All in iS 1aft bon nd ,a abaJ b,
lining of the bath tub with his right and
in making the connection, his hand
would glide along the side few inches.
Prof. Gray noticed that a sound was
proceeding from under the hand having
the same pitch and quality a the vibrat-
ing electrome. He developed the prin-
oiple until Feb. II, 1876 when he filed his
c4veat, whose terms We're the eXpec-
tation of perfecting The art of trans
hitting vocal sounds telegra phically"
ON March s. 1876, Prof Bell secured his
ratent for speaking telephones, and to
the day of his death, Gray insisted that
up to the time he filed his caveat, Bell
knew nothing of the principle of the tele-
phone. On the trial, strong evidence was
introduced to show collision between an
employee of the patent department and
Bell, but the final decision was in favor
OF the latter. The record shows clearly
enough, however, that while Bell may
have worked out the problem unassisted
and perfected the system at least as
early as did Gray, the latter was the first
to discover the principle and that he too
d veoped it to perfection by original
work
For a long time following the settle
ment of the litisa ton, Prof. Gray lived
i'll dire poverty, and While he finally
made other important inventions and
somewhat retrieved his fortunes. he
never wholly escaped the maddng
thought that he at one time had millions
upon millions within his grasp had he
but closed his hand one day earlier.
