GOVERNOR AND DEATH
PENALTY.

How would you like TO be the gov
ernor and nave it put up to you
whether or not three men should die
on certain day?
This thing Of taking human life
Is an awful thing whether you do IT
under the process of the law or not
OF course the sentence of death is
passed by the courts and the judicial
department is apart from the execu-
tive department under the constitu-
ton and the laws, but there is final
appeal to the governor with whom
the law has lodged the power of
pardon or reprieye.
Leaving out OF the question wheth-
err or not the death penalty is right,
it must be remembered that the gov
ernor Of a state is the sworn exeeu-
tor of the law and the law Of Illinois
says that the penalty Of murder is
death The penalty is inflicted by
the law and not by the officer, only
the instrument of the law as the law
is the instrument OF the will OF the
people, There have been cases where
the governor Of Illinois has had
propositions put up to him that were
cruel in their intensity of the trial Of
his humane instincts and his devotion
to the law which he Is sworn to up.

Many remember the pressure that
was brought to bear upon Governor
Oglesby in the famous anarchist
case and the pressure which was
afterward brought to bear upon Gov.

penalty OF the law by Governor Og

Is put up to any conscientious execu

vocates Of clemency is entitled to
the full sympathy Of the law abiding
citizenship of the state.
