COMMENTS ON LAWS DELAY

Winnemucca, Aug. IA, 1904.
Editor Silver State:-The ways OF
C. urts and lawyers are like the ways of
Providence, in this. that they are past

give the slightest reason why Judge
Belknap or the supreme court did not let
the law take its course with the self-con-
fessed mErderers? The reason gwen
seems to be that there was at least one
Intelligent man on the jury. And Gu
District court evidently despairng of OBJ

grade of intellect in the county, sh fits the
responsibility onto some other coun. v.
and cur citizens pay taxes to keep such
things alive. likely TO be turned loose
later. Such things surely bring courts
into contempt. or beneath it. Certainly,
if courts tried as hard to find a way to
ton, the laws W, uld be executed. LOOK
at the consideration shown to condemned
murderers. Does the judge pass sentenc.
on them at the earliest date allowed by
law? Do the state authorities execute
that sentence with reasonable dispatch.
Not that we have noticed. The urt de-
lays passing sentence until some day re-
mote from the trial, and the state prison
authorities give them another lease of
the lives they have justly forfeited Then
comes in the supreme court. 'Tis well
