VICTORY FOR THE LAW.

Alexander guilty of rnurdr in the first degrea. after being out just fourteen minutes Unless the Supre ms Court reveYses the lower courts rulings or finds come other technicality upon ich to give Alexander a lease on life and if the Governor does' not interfere, Alex ander will hang for the cold blooded murder of J.

 The Graphic cres for the blood of no man. It's heartfelt sympathy goes to any man in tr1uble and especially Alexander, whose criminal career has kept him prominently in the courts for years But the law must be up- held at any cost. The foundation of the government depends upon it's strict enforcement and especially is the demand greater in recent years for law enforcement in the careless and frequent use of firearms.
