THE OPPORTUNITY THAT'S LOST.

The most disagreeable aspect fur
niShed by the st. Charles jury's S
dePIorable lenieHcy IN the case of
the kIdnapperS and mnrderers of
Waiter Lamana is to be found in
the fact that an excellent opportu-
NIFTY for the presentation of most
Is'tfecllve object lesson to the lower
class Slcillans of New Orleans has
been lost.
1t Is from these lower. class 81.
Gillian that the "Black Hand" and
other similar more or less organized
societies of blackmailers, kidnap-
pers and asSaSsins are recruited.
Slcilians of this kind, men in
whose veins the blood of Moorish
pirates ravi> hers predominates,
cannot be led away from the prac-
tice of crime by moral suasion or
reasoning except, perhaps, in very
exceptional instances.
But they can be reached by fear
-fear death.
In their native land, the admin.
lstrati3n of the law is-or was bnt
a few years ago extremely lax and
irregular. Wherefore, the lower
class Slcilan comes to this country
with but little respect for the laws
power.
a real verdict, verdict with q
capital punishment attachment in
this Lamana case, would have gone
far to make them recognize that
American law was vital and
thing-a thing to fear.
They would have feared.
And in that fear Of theirs would
lie pretty fair insurance against
the recurrence of kidnapping and
and murder for the sake of gain in
The ltallan-or rather, the Sicilian
-colony of New Orleans.
SO much of good would surely
have resulted from legal execu-
ion in the premises. N. o. Item.

"DEMOIgACY OF LOUISIANA IS But
A NAME"

General Lecn jastremSki, in his
/ paper, The People," yesterday,
declares that he is being miSrepre
scented by the newspapers. He saws
that he has been going to his Office
every day since July 8, despite the
reports of his illness and inability
to be active. Says he:
at is assumed that LouiSianjsns
have lost their manhood and have
no principles left. That Demo
cracy IN Louisiana is but a name
aud that the height of the aims of
the average white voter is to find
out the winning man for the var
lous offices, so that he may be able
to cast his vote for him regardless
OF the superior merits Of his com
petitor, and of principle.
"Such is the political schooling
that is being taught to the youth

Can Win" has been sounded, and
speakll of this cry he says:

consideration and discussion.
"Think of it! This is one of the

END OF THE ITALIAN CASE

The case of the Italian kidnaper
and child murderers has come to a,
end.
Four prisoners, three of whom
are men, and who the cOmmunit,
fully expected would be punished
with death, were given a sentence
OF life Imprisonment. The fourth
who Is woman, was very properly
saved from the gallows.
These people are of the very low.
est class, morally aud socially, and
to them imprisonment is only re.
straint. 1t inhicts upon them no
conditions Of shame and mortifica-
ton. la all probability they were
ex-convlcts or refugees from justice
III their own country, and they
came here to join the hordes of
foreign criminals and rascals who
hnd IN this free country, with it's
loose methods punishlng criminals
and It's careless and unsuspecting
native population, a vast field and
lnnumerable opportunities for ply
ing their various evil enterprises
They are fertile in their expedlents
for escaping from prison, and with
out doubt all three of the men are
of securing their liberty
sooner or later, and have in all
reliability "doue time" in prisons
where the discipline and vigilance
are vastly stricter than in ours.
As to the two accused yet untried,
the postponement secured in their
cases until next November is great
lynn their favor. A case that has
been a nine-days' wonder and has
aroused large numbers of the best
people to a state of high excitement
and indignation, will in the next
