Religion of the Savage.

In protesting against illegal
lied murder" The Commercial
Appeal says: Blood for blood,
life for life is the demand of the
religion of the savage, in keep
ing with which he believes death
for murder to be the pleasure of
God. With our radically differ
ent religious conceptions, with
our conception of a divine being,
free from a spirit of retaliatory
revenge. the continuance of the
death penalty as a conception of
justice is out of keeping with the
higher concepts Of civilization. "
