c0ddlIna, the Criminal.

The charges that have been made

has yet been, taken. y Il
4. Nothing encourages crime more
surely than a trayesty upon justice in
its punishment. The theory that the
criminal is still man. and, therefore.
entitled TO human consideration, is n
sound one, but 1T Is sometimes carried
beyond the point OF reason and safe
,ty. The reaction from the old 3princi-
pie Of retrlbutlon has gone too far In
some Instances and not infrequently
he is made to feel that lbs offense has
conferred a distinction upon himself
instead Of working forfeiture Of
those rights which every well-behaved
citizen Is supposed to enjoy. Such a
state OF affairs puts a premium upon
violation Of law and makes the pros
pect Of punishment BY no means the
ugly thing that It should appear.
