LARDo. IDAHO.


British statesmen are again striv-
ing to amend the law so as to permit
persons convicted of crime to appeal
TO a higher court. The need OF some
change in the law has long been admit
ted, for although man against whom
verdict of a hundred pounds has
been found in a civil court may APP
peal, one who has been convicted of
murder must submit to the sentence
with no effective appeal save to the
clemency of the home office. The ex-
perience OF a perfectly innocent man
who was twice convicted for crimes of
which he was not guilty, and of which
ne might have been proved to be inno-
cent III the full evidence in his defense
had been admitted by the trial court,
mas reused the British sense of justice
I'LL 1t has been decided that the law
must be amended There is no agree
ment yet on the details of the proposed
changes, but it is admitted that the
new should be so framed as not to lead
to delay in the execution Of sentence
on the guilty. The London Times re-
marks that Delay In disposing of
cases of murder, for example, would
mean in effect the abolition of capital
punishment. The public would not en-
dure the thought of men lying in
prison many months uncertain of
their fate" In America, where oppor-
tunftfes for appeal seem at times to
be almost unlimited, says Youths Com
panion, the public does not concern
itself much when convicted murderers
deiay execution for years by resort to
every device for postponement that in
genious lawyers can discover. Abuses
arising from the freedom of appeal are
as great here as those in England aris-
Ing from the summary execution of
the sentence of the trial court.
