ELECTROCUTION FOR HANGING.
Delegate H. R. Wooden Introduces
Bill Before Legislature.

An attempt to substitute electrocu-
ton for hanging in. Maryland will be
begun in the General Assembly next
week. "a bill proposing to install the
electric chair will b. introduced ~
the House by Delegate Wooden, OF
Carroll county.
In it's present shape the bill will
probably be opposed by the directors
Of the Maryland Penitentiaryp - IL
provides that all executions within
the state shall take place at the Pen
itentiary, and, further, that the pen
atty shall be inflicted by the warden,
his deputy o. some one designated
by them.
Warden Weyler has already criti-
cised the plan of pentitentiary exc
cutions on the ground that they ere
ate Decentralization within the prison
and react On the condition OF prison
ers. He contends that the death
chair, IL adopted, should be installed
in the House of Correction.
The Wooden Bill provides briefly
that hanging be- abolished, electrocu-
ton substituted, and Ill executions
take place at the Pen1tentiary. F'urth-
er, that the expense OF such execu-

The proposed law also prescrlbes
that following the imposing Of SEN
tence, the governor shall be notified
and sahll issue death warrant to
the Warden, who shall demand the

keep him In solitary confinement I'M
til his case is disposed of. The only

There are several cases of scarlet
fever reported in Baltimore county
Several OF Mr.. Koiner's children, Of

to prevent the fever from spreading.
We see by the poll OF some OF the
leading men OF the State that Cover
nor Harmon leads. We are not at all
surprised as he is the most logical
candidate in our estimation of them
all. OF course he will have the Peer
Less Leader to reckon with as they
don't play in each others back yards
The Legislature seem to be getting
along pretty well and we hope the
good feeling may continue, as that
will do more to benefit the Democrat
party than If 1t were hostile to the
Governor. While this scribe did not
vote for him, or help to elect him, as
a good many Democrats did we are
sure that Mr.. Goldsborough will make
good.
