The Badaracca Case.

Some of the Amador county news
papers state that the public there
greatly disapproves the ten years
sentence imposed on Tony Badaracca
after his pleading guilty of man
slaughter at Markleeville. len years
is the extreme penalty for man
slaughter. The only criticism poss-
ible is on the acceptance of the de-
fendant's plea.
AS to this feature of the case the
Gardnerville Courier says: ''The
sentence imposed met the general
approval of the Alpine people, all
things being considered. Badaracca
had the services of one of the best
attorneys on the coast. and there is a
possibility the jury list would have
been exhausted, causing a compllcat-
ed state of affairs. There was also a
doubt in the minds of the pr rosecuting
attorneys of their being able to secure
verdict of murder, owing to the
strong testimony that could be in
troduced regarding the mental con-
dition of the accused man,
Badaracca was under cash bail for
trying to kill a relative when he
killed PendoIa. He is consider ed
very dangerous in Amador county,
where he resides, and may be insane
as he has epileptic fits. s.-Placerville

A Courageous Newspaper.

The Amador Ledger was fifty year
old last week. 1t has recently greatly
improved It's printing facilities and
increased It's space for local affairs of
the county. Under the vigorous
policy of its editor, Richard Webb,
now veteran in the newpaper world,
it has been of great value and service
to the people of Amador county in
truthfully reporting affairs that con-
Germ the public. In pursuing this
course of writing, fearlessly and
without favor, about local matters,
the editor has necessarily made
enemies, but it is to the credit of
Amador county people that they have
given his newspaper loyal support and
recognize its efficiency as a public
servant and not personal or merely
a political organ. A good newspaper
is something bigger5 and better than
the mouthpiece of man or a party
these days. 10 be of use in the
world, its editor must have positive
convictions on many subjects, includ-
ing politics, and he must not be
afraid to express them, but the old
fashioned days when the newspaper
could not exist except as the organ of
a clique or the slave of party have
gone by. The Ledger is one of the
exponents of the newer and better
type of county newspapers. Ell Dor.

DETERMINED THAT
LOVE WILL HANG.
1t is Suggested that the Murderer
Be Turned Over to this County.

From recent developments it is
quite probable that the notorious
murderer, Love, who has tried to
make his crime all the greater by
duplicating Clarence Murphy in the
killing Of Mrs. Phoebe Williams and
Chester Maker, may be turned over to
the officials of San joaquin county
for trial on the charge of killing
young Nighswonger, who was found
with his throat cut some distance
southwest of Stockton. This murder
was traced to the doorstep of Love
about the time he was found to have
been the slayer of the two people at
Lancha PIana.
1t seems that Loves mainstay in
the saving of his miserable neck was
to turn states evidence and in
order to do this he had to impllcate
some other person in his grevious
crimes along with himself tor pur-
poses, perhaps reasonable to him, he
first thought of Murphy aud made his
confession, wherein the evidence pro-
duced against Murphy III the recent
trial at Jackson was all furnished
and forthcoming from Love. lie
was accorded the same rights by the
district attorney of a Amador county
that have been extended to criminals
throughout the land who have gone
so far as to aid the officials IN bring
ing accomplices to Justice, and was
given the life sentence.
Now that the true state of affairs has
been discovered it is probable that
Love will yet suffer the death penalty
for his crime. He has trified with the
law and the sentence of life imprison-
ment meted out to him cannot be re-
tracted. but there is charge against
him for the killing of Chester Maker
at Lancha Plana, and the further
charge, not yet formally made, OF
the killing of Nlghswonger in this
city. The district attorney is not
certain what procedure he will take
in the matter, but if Love is not
turned over to the sheriff's office of
San Joaquin county for prosecution,
it is certain that he will be tried for
the murder of Chester Maker.
The District Attorney of Amador is
emphatic in saying that Love should
receive a sentence of capital punish
ment IN hanging for his great otfenses
against lite and the general public,
and he asserts that he will prosecute
him until he is sentenced to DEATH =

the passage of laws that would pre-
vent the roads from charging more
than one-half their present. rates,
the shippers, who might think they
had gained great victory over their
enemies, the railroads, would event
ually find they had secured a merely
temporary and evasive advantage; for
the business of the whole country
would be so seriously disturbed as to
react upon the fortunes of all busi-
ness men and producers.
Fortunately the temporary agita-
tion in favor of Governmental inter
ference with and power over the
making of rates is running the usual
course of ill-judged fads, and is on
its decline.

packers agents indicates that the
existing law, if resoIutely enforced.
is sufficient to deal with the rebate
evil. And when discrimination
against individuals and localities has
been stopped, there will be no further

Statistics of Suicide.

Some interesting conclusions have
been drown by Prof. W. B. Bailey,
of Yale, from recent official statistics
of suicide. These he sets forth IN an
article in The Medical News New
York. Dealing with the 30, 344 cases
of suicide officially recorded between
1897 and 1901 he finds that the male
suicides outnumber those of the
weaker SEX by seven to two. The
average period of 20 to 50 covers
nearly two thirds of all the cases. In
the absence of any Information as to
the relative numbers of persons in
the United States at the different age
periods this statement is not very in
forming, but so far as it goes it would
seem to indicate that under the
lower age limit there are few to whom
life seems unattractive, while after
so natural end looms so near that
it is scarcely worth while to precipit-
ate its arrival Other results are
more Illuminating 1t would appear
that, other things being equal, a
married man is more likely to commit
suicide than either single man or a
married woman, while women who
are single, either because widowed
or divorced, or because they have
never been anything else, seem to
find life less attractive than similarly
circumstanced men. Neither ill
health nor alcohol is such potent
cause of suicide as business losses.
and to the latter even absorbing
sentiment such as is represented by
love affair has to yield the palm.
Since business plays so prominent
part in the production of suicide, it
is comprehensive that Saturday
should not be popular day on which
to ring down the curtain. Those who
mediate this step have worried
