THE BRADLEY CASE.

During the progress of the Bradley
trial The Herald has refrained from
editorial comment on the case because
opinion expressed in advance could not
be based on complete knowledge of the
facts developed later in the hearing OF
evidence. The verdict is not unexpect-
ed because the sordid details showed
such provocation to crime on both
sides as TO excite. if not sympathy,
some allowance for the woman who
committed the murder
Reviewing the case, it is impossible
to overlook the bestiality of the rela-
tions Il uncovered between the man
and woman. In civilized age among
educated people, the deliberate wicked
ness, the wanton disregard of all law,
human and divine. the Haunting pub
licity of the criminal relation are
enough TO shock the most hardened
pervert We view with averted eyes
the tribal relations of African savages,
who show more regard for the decen-
eies than these two showed. The only
feeling possible at the conclusion of the
case is of relief that it is over with
and We need no longer be offended by
thought of it,
The jury decided that Mrs. Bradley
was insane when she killed Arthur
Brown, and It seems a pity that, being
custody and direction of the two chill
dren whose lives are constant witness
of her unf1tness for motherhood. The
blessed human quality which fOrgives
much in a woman for the sake of all
womanhood. has strained the quality
Of mercy for her; but it would be a
continuing crime to link the lives of
these two little ones with hers. She
chose her path and it led her to the
depths of bitterness and degrade ton.
life, abased the womanhood which was
her one claim to mercy. Generosity
ought to end there and kindness begin
with the children who will otherwise
have to pay her ultimate debt to So
ciety.
The children are the innocent victims
of this tragedy of misspent life and vio-
lent death. Poor little chaps. they
never asked to be born" and unless
some provision is made for their fu-
ture they will walk through their lives
with the shadow of this baleful thing
upon them. They ought 10 be given
their opportunity To make their way in
the world. Heaven knows they have
no other birthright save shame and
sorrOw
