a FEW REFLECTIONS.

I HE STATEMENT BY Arthur Pratt,
the new warden of the Utah pen
itentiary. that there is not a man in
the prison now who was there fifteen
years ago when he first served as war
den, in spite of the fact that he had
then i'm custody three men who were
serving life sentences for murder, is
sufficient 20 give US food for thought.
Il goes 10 show that the sentence Of
imprisonment for life is not as severe
"a penalty as many well meaning per-
sons would have us believe.
il Is not worth while now TO go into
"a discussion of the facts brought out
at the trials Of the men referred to by
Warden Pratt. All, we know is that
they were branded as murderers while
the facts were stin fresh In the minds
% the people. They were sentenced 10
spend the remainder of their days in
prison. If competent juries had not
thought thela deserving of this pun
ishment. they would not have been 50
harshIy dealt with. 1t was the inten-
tion Of the juries and of the courts
that sentenced these men that the law
Should be vindicated.
Yet. within q comparatively brief
period. they are. with one exception,
as cree as any man who never COM
lnitted a crime. The exception is an
exception only in the fact that he must
report at stated intervals to a compe-
tent authority regarding his manner OF
liking. TO ali intents and purposes he
il practically free - come and go as
he pIsases. Is this justice? is it ret
ribution for the blood shed by these
criminals? 1t may be said that the
men are good citizens now; that so
long az there is a chance to make and
keep a man a good citizen he should
not be confined behind prison walls.
As much can be said of almost any
offender. IN all probability every one
OF these life termers was regretful
within @ very few moments after he
committed his crime. Then. according
[, the theory just outlined, they should
not have been sent to prison for day.
Time too often makes us fOrgetful of
the evil as well as the good men do.
These reflections are offered. not in a
spirit cf unfriendly criticism of the
pardonng powers. In view of the
pressure that is brought to bear upon
them in behalf of this man or that, the
only wonder is that more convicts are
not set free.
The point we set out TO make and
the point we do make is that life SEN
fences are not the bugabOos some peo-
pie would make them out; that where
a clear case of murder is established.
established beyond the peradventure
of a doubt, the extreme penalty should
be inflicted. rather than the lesser.
For. the cases in which the lesser has
been inflicted so TO show too often
that the punishment is no punishment
at ali.

THE CORRECT ATTITUDE.

I T Is GOOD 10 SEE the greatest ed
itor OF this day and genratiOn,
Henry Watterson. and the greatest
newspaper i'm the south, the Louisville
Courier-Journal, falling uuequivocaIly
into line FOR the nominees of the next
Democratic national convention, with
out regard to the personalities OF these
nominees. Thus unequivOcaIly do Colo
mel Wattersop and his paper take the
plunge:
In order to allay excitement and sup
press conjecture the Courier-JOurnal de-
sires 20 say that whoever receives a two
thirds vote in the next national Demo-
cratic convention as candidate for presi-
dent Of the United States shall receive
tie support Of this paper. II the platform
contains matter we cannot honestly in
dorSe and approve. we shall repudiate so
much Of 81 as may meet our dissent. and
20 ON with the campaign rs IL nothing
had happened. II the nominee be not
precisely 20 our liking we shall discount
our objections and give him the best the
shop has I'm stock.
I'VE are not in the least afraid that
twO-thirds of the next national Demo-
cratic convention viii be cast for an un-
fit candidate. or that any Democratic can
tlidatc receiving N majority of the votes

help or harm it: the same can be said
on the Courier-Journal in respect To

faint Of self-interest in our desire to
compliment the COurier-JournaI and
Colonel Watterson on its stand 1t in
sUres Kentucky to the Democracy in
1904 In 1886. without the support of
the Courier-Journal, the Democrats
lost Kentucky. With it in 1900 the
Democrats won. For our part we are
willing TO let bygones be bygones. to
let the dead bury their dead
The Democrats have at least a fight
ing chance to win the national election
this fall, but they are going to need all
the help they can get. whatever the de-
cision at st. Louis may be. The Cour-
ier-Journal and Colonel Watterson are
a power-bad English. that. but plain
fact-and we wish them plenty more
power.

GAVE HER TFsTTMoNv

A Methodist clergyman who oficiated
in town last Sunday vouches for this
story. he has an interesting 5-year-
old grand daughter. At a prayer meet
ing he asked the congregation 60 rise
and give personal testimony, and he
was agreeably surprised to find his
granddaughter among those who gave
experiences. She said:
The Lord is my shepherd. shall not
want"
At the parsonage later i'm the evening
the clergyman kissed his gTandchild
and said that the happiest moment of
his life was when his darling arose and
shamed the older members by giving
her testimony. 1t was such as she who
made bad men good. he added The
child listened attentively TO the eulogy.
Then she said.
We'll, I just had TO do it. Didn't
want to stand there like a darn fool and
say nussen."

runs Tarpey had some business 10

inquired out as a deputy marshal until
recognized and the head Of the family

ton Occasionally Tarpey would get
close enough to see the cloud OF dust
as MS man went over the hill. but that
was all. Tarpey was not interested in
the polygamy prosecutions All he
wanted was to transact some land bust
ness. but after several fruitless days
ne gave up in despair and showed up
in Logan. There he met a friend. A.

him Tarpey incidentally mentioned the
