law: a man is convicted Of higher
crimes and Is given three or five years
10 JAIL and the public smiles. In
either instance, the individual has not
received sufficient lesson, and the
public has received but the slightest
or no beneficent result at all.
In the case of the drunken man, If
he were fined 5000 or 200 days in jail
ut labor for the State, would that not
more likely reform him, and at the
same time impress itself so deeply on
the minds of other bibulous persons
that they would keep themselves we'll
within proper lines? In the case of
the petit thief, If he were given SEN
tence Of one or two years in the State
reformatorv or penitentiary, would
not Others so inclined hesitate long
before they let their fingers get stuck
to articles not their own by right?
If the law is to be effective the pen
atty for violation must be sufficiently
severe to attract the whole public's
attention, severe enough to cause the
public to reflect, sufficient to cause a
healthy consideration Of that penalty
where crime is contemplated. 1t
must be remembered that great deal
of goodness in this life is the result OF
fear of the law. In the case Of the
California vigilantes in 40, they hang
cd for theft OF gold and provisions.
Though theft had been rife for months
in three weeks time pans Of gold left
anywhere in camp were as safe as
though guarded by regiment of sol
ders. Horse thieves i'm Idaho, Wyom-
ing and Montana were hanged and
shot, and in short time horse steal
ing was thing Of the past. 1t is 10
be regretted that the law does not pro-
vide penalties sufficiently severe to
prevent crime, and 1t is equally to be
regretted that the severest penalties
are not always prescribed where guilt
Is unquestioned.
