SIXTY LIFE CONVCTS
FIGHT TO REMAIN
IN YUMA PEN
Prisoners Will Employ Lawyer
to Prevent Removal to New
Prison at Florence Arizona.
Especial correspondence - Morning Journal

| ISVttitit torTthHbuututf ~ horhthE bouFHii !
Yuma, Ariz., July l5.-Ihere are
sixty life-term prisoners in the terri
torial ~penitentiary on the hill. As
soon as the new penitentiary is fin
ished at Florence these prisoners, to-
getheT with all other prisoners in the
~penitentiary, viii be removed to the
new place of confinement. However,
the life-termers do not want to 60
and are preparing to make q fight ia
spend the remainder OF their days in
Yuma. When their sentences Of inn
prisonment were imposed they We're
sentenced to confinement in the ter
%ritorial prison at Yuma, Ariz,, for and
during their natural life. such was
not only the wording OF the sentence.
but it was so written in the judgment
books of the court from which they
came and in the commitment papers
on which they were confined. Now
these prisoners claim that under the
terms of the judgment and the com
mitment papers they cannot he re-
moved to Florence or to any other
place of confinement. Yuma is good
enough for them. They are willing to
remain here for life, in this delight
full atmosphere and splendid climate
and perpetual sunshine.
1t is said hat these prisoners have
formed a combination TO fight their
removal. and if they are removed, to
fight for their liberation upon a writ
of habeas corpus. They have been
negotiating with Earl Rogers of Los
Angeles. the celebrated criminal law
yer. to take their ease, and he viii
probably do so.
About a year ago. when Governor
Kibbey was at the head of the terri
torial government, he and the attor-
ney general made an Investigation
into the question. They had made "A
list of all the prisoners who are on
fined on judgments of this kin and
made an exhaustive Investigation of
the law on the subject. No report
was ever made and ii is not known
to what conclusion the ex-governor
came. Anyway. tne work on the
Florence penitentiary has kept right
ON and about half of the convicts now
in confinement in the territory ara
at Florence. However. these are an
short-term men, and they are getting
two DAYS credit On their sentences Of
confinement for each day they work
at Florence. No life-term prisoners
have as yet been taken 10 Florence.
II is undoubtedly n fact that several
of the life term prisoners are hang
ing more han a thread Of hope upon

az least shorten their term Of con-
finement.
The best legal opinion seems TO he
that there Is very little merit in the
question ms hat the courts when
they reach IL will make a short shin

ITO'S DEATH a LOSS 20 THIS
COUNTRY.

In the death of Prince Ito, former
premier of Japan, the United States
has suffered a distinct loss. The as
sassin who shot down this great states
man and imagined that in so doing he
was striking a blow for Korea, un-
doubtedly inflicted a misfortune on this
country. Beyond question, our State
Department so views the crime, which
is OF much more than national i'm
p0rtance.
Prince Ito was an educated man, a
man thoroughly versed in the ways Of
the Occident, a man of wide experience,
a man Of great foresight, and a man
Of peace. Because he was a man Of
peace and because he had great infu-
ence with the AIikado, he was at
various times invaluable % the United
States, and there is no doubt he would
have been valuable TO this country in
the future. he was not iingoist 10
any sense of the term. Not Of the
military party, he had the far-seeing
sagacity 70 perceive that the greatest
destiny Of Japan could be wrought out,
not with her army and her navy, but
through development along peaceful
lines, and through diplomatic achieve
ments rather than military force. Thus
he looms up and has doomed up for
years in striking contrast to some Of
the other strong japanese leaders,
notably Count Okuma, who is the
leader Of the military party.
The hand Of the enslaved sometimes
strikes bIindly, and it has been true in
this case. IN killing him the Koreans
have probably killed their best friend.
II is, Of course, a fact that he brought
about the treaty that made Korea a
dependency. But he did not believe in
unnecessary harshness TO the Koreans,
He was more tolerant and lenient than
many Of bis countrymen wanted him
10 be- Now that he is gone, Korea is
likely % feel the iron hand in earnest.
Ito was a thoroughly patriotic Jap
anese He had plans for making Japan
supreme in the Far East. No doubt be
intended to see to it that the 4open
door was closed 10 us. But he fay
ored relations Of good viii and amity.
With him gone, it may happen that

GOLDEN BARS ON AMERICAN
EMBASSIES.

More or less complaint is heard con-
tinually over the exclusive and aris-
tocratic tendencies Of our American en-
bassies abroad.
A good many Americans travelling in
foreign parts come in contact with the
embassies, and a large percentage Of
them return with the impression that
there is a conspicuous lack of the demo
cratic in the manners and surround
ings Of the diplomats and attaches who
represent this country in the worlds
capitals. II has remained, however, for
Frederick Townsend Martin, who just
returned from abroad, TO hurl the most
savage projectile at the embassies. If
be IL TO be believed there arc golden
bars on most Of them and they radiate
frost rather than warmth. "Once a
year. only" says Mr Martin, "are the
common people permitted 70 cross the
threshold"
This l. how auriyorOus and arctic Mr..
Martin found tbings:
"The cornerstone Of every American
embassy today IL a block Of solid gold,
and the halls Of these embassies are
colder than the marble columns which
decorate them. Although the United
States OF America is the matchless re-
public there is no imperial or mon
arebical embassy which surpasses the
American embassy in its eXclusiveness
and plutocracy."
Mr.. Martin says the evil can be
remedied only by Government owner
ship Of the embassies and that these
should be simple and dignifed buildings
and not Sensational palaces"
In this he is undoubtedly right. Con-
gress should provide our embassies with
such buildings and should do it without
delay, and the opportunities for show
and display on the part of our diplo-
mats should be minimized. If, then,
a tendency is exhibited to fiji these
embassy buildings with more men of
the DR.. Eliot type, there viii doubtless
