ANOTHER ADDRESS
FROM GORDON
REV. JAMES |. GORDON SPOKE
AT BIG BANQUET LAST NIGHT
GIVEN RY RED RIVER VALLEY
CONGREGATIONAL CLUB AT
Prizes HALL-NEW OFFICERS

Another massive address was de-
livered by Rev. James l.. Gordon, ID.
d., Of Winnipeg in the city last night
when he spoke at the dinner given by
the Red River Valley Congregational
club at Prizes hall. More than 100
persons were present at the repast to
hear the eminent Manitoba divine
again.
DR.. Gordon appeared to great adj
vswltage and took for his subject the
word Blessed" which was the first
word OF the sermon on the mount.
His style is always excellent and his
effort last evening was in every way
as mastery as the great speech Tues
day night He showed the essentials
Of a. sermon, the characteristics OF a
preacher and ifferent ways OF appeal
ing to the soul.
His effort last evening was q mar
vel to those who heard him, as are all
the talks of the Winnipeg minister,
Yesterday morning he entertained the
students OF Fargo college and num-
Der OF visitors during the convoca-
ton hour with a splendid address on
The Elements Of Success. In the col
lege chapel he was loudly cheered by
the students Of that popular institu-
ton.
Officers were chosen last night for
the Red River Valley Congregational
club as follows
Observation-Disclosures f. Amidon.
Vice presidents-Rev H. r. Herman
and III. r. Edwards.
Secretary--F. w. Pearson.

decade, still, in the face of all this.
a stupendously incompetent pardon
BOARD has issued free pardons to men,
who, had they received their just de-
serts at the time of these trials, would
not be alive today to be coddled into
malicious activity all over again. A
houble-dyed murderer. possessing
hefty bunch of crying relatives, guar
anteed to move a week-kneed and
bone-headed pardon board to con-
dition of helpless assininity-has
clear right-of-way in this state to
slug, mutilate or slay to his hearts
content.
Fargo Courier News: The arrest of
Kell, the recently pardoned, convict
from the penitentiary, at Bismarck,
Monday, may have good effect upon
the pardon board-if 1t will also ar
rest the boards haste in granting par
dons with the lavish hand recently
shown. Kell's original crime was OF
such a nature that depravity was
shown in every feature of it, and the
pardoning of such a man seems to be
going the limit.
Glenburn Advance: The pardon
boards are very busy these DAYS. we
presume in a few years the McNa-
maras will be out on account of their
good behavior. Time softens the feel
ing against all convicts and senti-
mentality too often gets the better OF
the judgment of boards of pardon.
Grand Forks Times: The arrest and
pleading guilty yesterday to q crime
similar in nature to that for which he
was convicted. by Wilson KeIl who
was one Of the convicts pardoned at
the last session of the pardon board.
gives rise to the inquiry whether or
not the indiscriminate pardoning of
convicts is not burlesque on justice
and a cheapening of the danger of
crime. The Times does not want to
be understood as demanding an eye
for an eye or a tooth for a tooth.
though that was the law Of the in
spired lawgiver. A life for life
merely to satisfy the anger and arous-
ed vengeance of the public mind is
not the underlying principle of Grim
inal Jurisprudence. e contrario, the
setting aside of all power Of the courts
by granting pardons without justifi- |
able grounds, is catering to an over
developed sentiment that has no place |
in the criminal procedure Of a state. |
There are various classes OF Grim |
inals-almost as many as there are
individuals. 1t has been the ideal of |
crininologists that the criminal be re- |

the same influence in the mind of thu
contemplative criminal as well.
Devils Lake World: Appearances
would indicate that the pardon board
which recently did a wholesale bust
ness In Kidding Warden Hellstrom oil
twenty three of his charges, display
ed little too much zeal in extending
the hand of brotherly love to others
in distress-leastwise in bondage. The
spirit of the Good Samaritan is all
right when properly bestowed-which
usually would mean that the recipi-
ent of the gracious acts of those who
are in a position to bestow them
should at least be partly blameless for
his present condition.
Wilson ID. KelI, who was convicted
in Williams county in 1909 for a SER
ious offense, for which he alone was
entirely to blame, was serving a ten
year sentence. He had served less
than one-fifth of the time that those
who heard the details of the case had
decided would be a just punishment for
his crime, when the pardon board saw
fit to release him.
A penitentiary sentence is calculat-
ed to serve the commonwealth in two
ways; first, to properly punish an Of
fender for a crime committed and
second--but possibly not least--to give
those who are criminally inclined and
still inside the pale of righteousness, a
wholesome fear of the iron hand of
law.
Would il not appear that ofttimes
the purpose OF the law is frustrated
and that not only the guilty one is al
lowed to go his way partly punished,
but that. those who would commit
crime were it not for fear of the PEN
atty are rather encouraged to follow
the inclinations of their depraved ma
lures by just such occurrences?
Kell is an example himself. He had
been free from the penitentiary but
tendency asserted itself again and he
is again in the tolls.
There are some men who would COM
init crime as often as they are turned
loose, no matter how long sentence
they had served; there are others who
would be criminal If they thought that
only a small punishment would be
melted out to them for their unlawful
actions-and the last named are the
ones that are encouraged by too Iib-
eral application Of the power that lis
possessed by the pardon board
KEEL may have been an ideal pris-
oner and as 1t il customary in penal
institutions TO commute sentences for
good behavior. he may have been en-
titled to some consideration. but It
hardly seem possible that he was so
angelic while under Warden He'll
strom's care that he Ii entitled to q
OF more than four hfths OF
the penalty that a Judge and jury who
had heard the details OF the crime
committed had decided would be a
just punishment for the offense. II
would really seem that they were In q
better position to Judge than il the
pardon board.
