Penalties of Prosperity.

After all is said it must be conceded
that the apparent disregard for human
life in the United States is largely a
Tribute to progress and to the indus
tries that constitute prosperity. Even
fatal railroad accidents, the largest
item IN the list, cannot be wholly
eliminated, though they can and ought
to be greatly reduced in number. But,
says the Indianapolis News. railroad
accidents are only one item in the list
of annual fatalities. There are fatal
accidents in mining, building, manu-.
featuring and agriculture. They all
claim their victims as sort Of tribute
TO progress, though very costly one.
Carefully compiled statistics show that
in the five great industries Of railroad
ing. mining, building, manufacturing
hnd agriculture no less than 536,165
persons are annually killed or injured
In the United States. This is at the
rate OF over one a minute, and Il in.
eludes only a few Of the largest in.
hustries.

Memorial Building at Arlington.
COLORADO,


One of the kindly suggestions in
President Roosevelt's annual message
Is that there be constructed at Arlins-
ton memorial amphitheater, an esti-
mate for the preliminary work on
which is contained in the report Of
the secretary of war. The Grand
Army of the Republic In its annual
national encampment has recommend
ed such a structure as necessary for
the appropriate observance OF Me-
mortal Day and as fitting monument
to the soldier and sailor dead buried
in the beautiful cemetery, and the
president heartily concurs in the prop
ositiou. The old soldiers are getting
fewer and feebler, and when they take
part in the Memorial Day exercises.
says the Troy Times, it is right that
they should be made as comfortable
as possible. That is part OF the idea
of erecting such an amphitheater. The
structure would be still more I'M
pressive as honoring the dead at Ar
lington. And it would most aptly
symbolic the reunited nation. Ar
lington itself was formerly the home
of Gen. Robert E. Lee, the knightly
confederate commander. and in its
soil rest not only thousands Of union
dead but many who wore the gray and
who afterward served their country
when the call came and was respond.
ed to without regard to section or po-
litical differences. The Arlington me-
mortal should be erected as aoon as
possible.

Murdsrer's Sentence.
Denver.-In refusing to interfere
with the sentence of the court in the
case of John McGarvey, sentenced to
be hanged for the murder Of Jailer Ed.
ward Innes at Grand Junction. Cover
nor Buchtel issued the following state.
ment:
II went to Grand Junction to secure
Information at first hand in the case
of John McGarvey and found these
facts:
First, this man commits burglary
at time when there was a, universal
demand for men to work. Instead of
earning a living by working he breaks
into storage house and steals a lot of
stun and sells it. For this crime he
was then indicted and committed to
the penitentiary. A well-known gentle
man OF Grand Junction appeals In his
behalf and the court releases him on q
technicality.
$50 McGarvey owes his freedom to
the Intervention of kind hearted man.
This man gives him employment and
he commits an assault on n little
twelve-year-old girl, and one small for
her age. Nothing more brutal can be
imagined. The child's mother was in
Europe at the time. The second crime.
too. was against a benefactor. Then
McGarvey runs away and Is brought
back and put in prison to await trial.
His jailer. Edward Innes. was q man
held in high esteem at Grand Junction
for gentlemanly qualities.
Times knows McGarvey and gives
him privileges not extended to other
prisoners. He.is permitted to cook the
food and leave his cell when the others
are shut up. One afternoon at
four o'clock as he was preparing sup
per he selects stick of wood from the
pile which will serve his purpose and
lays 1t aside. Later Innes Is down on
his knees with his hands grasping the
iron door Of a cell looking in at some
prisoners playing cards. McGarvey
steps up behind him and hits him over
the head.
THE first stroke was a death stroke
Innes was Instantly unconscious and
grasps the door of the cell with a
death grip. McGarvey takes Tnnes' re-
volver and keys and after that hits
him. Then he ties him with string.
The tying with the string is the only
point made to show that he did not
have murder in his heart. That may
be accounted for. however. IN another
way. II could have been an exhibition
Of his being in panic OF fright after
killing his guard.
at is probable that more appeals
will be made to me than would other
wise be made. because the impression
will be that | will be sympathetic to

curing reprieves and pardons. So II
is important that l should Say, for the
Information of the public, what my
views are on the subject.
when the courts have reached n de.
cision and established the fact that n
man has committed some criminal act.
and has applied the punishment the
law provides for that case. have no
right to intervene and Illustrate the
work Of the court. The only times
when could intervene would be when
new evidence has come to light which

DEMOCRAT MAY eE JUDGE.
Wsshlneton's Direct Primary Law
May Afford Loophole.

Olympia-The provisions of the new
direct primary law make 1t more than
likely that the democratic party will
hereafter have one or more members
Of the supreme court bench of this
state.
The new law provides for a separate
judicial ticket at primary elections.
This ticket is to be nonpartizan. the
names of the candidates to appear
without any political designation. The
second choice provision is also elm
mated from the judgeship Offices.
At the general election in 1908, three
members Of the supreme court are to
be chosen, to succeed Chief Justice II.
Z. Hadley and Justices Milo A. Root
and Herman d. Grow. The names Of
all candidates will be on the ticket
without party designation, and the
three receiving the highest vote will
be nominated. The secretary of state
is directed by the law to put only the
names of the three candidates thus
nominated on the ballot for the general
election in November.
1 HIS AltdAo ludl INC IuQ6tH Will ~ az
tically be elected at the September pri-
maries, instead of at the November
election. With only the names of the
three candidates on the general cleo
ton ballot, it would of course be i'm
possible to elect any one in opposi-
ton to either of them.
SO may republican candidates are
likely to go before the September pri.
maries as to divide the party vote and
result in some democratic candidate
receiving a plurality. This would leave
the republicans thus defeated off the
November ballot. 1t is the history Of
politics that the majority party Is
always in the field with a multitude Of
candidates, while the minority parties
generally unite on one man. 1t is
easy to see that the democrats, by hav
ing not to exceed three candidates fol
the supreme bench at the September
primaries next year, are quite likely t
elect one or two Of them unless thu
republicans also unite on few candi
dates.
The new primary law likewise elm
mates United States senators AM
members of the legislature from tn
second choice provisions. Section Il
/ Of the law provides that where Their
are four or more candidates of an.
party for one state or congressional
: office" the voter shall designate bot
