know the reasons alleged for not giving the culprit an ordinary jury trial-but do not believe in their sion of such crimes? On the con trary. very often following one such crime. punished by hanging by q mob. there follows a series of such outrages
 His position that in England crime is not so common-I mean murder, as with us l do not deem well taken. A consultation of the English rapers and of their court records will show at least as great, if not greater .scourge of murders committed than with us This. not withstanding the United States has pie to assimilate than probably any nation that has ever existed.
 In this great mass are thousands of the diseased, vicious. brutal fla natical, superstitious products of an unjust old World system. Further more, he forgets that the English man has an inborn respect for law the result of ages of living in a formed society. of looking up to a supposedly superior head. We have Q government based on the idea that we are free to do practically as we please, we make laws for the fun of making them then pro- ceed to forget them. That state ment covers a number of cause; for our prevalence of crime. if there be such a great prevalence.
 That We should liberate proven criminals is not advocated by any sane, sincere believer in the abolition Of murder as q punishment for mur- der. on the contrary they desire the criminal to be isolated from his fellow man. to be given productive work to do, to be given the services of expert medical men who know psychology and be given a chance to be cured of what some of the most eminent of the gentlemans own profession correctly term a dis ease. I have not space here to go into the crime of society against the individual, which crime is one of the greatest of reasons why so- ciety, itself a very great criminal. should not be allowed to avenge itself ruthlessly, unhampered and vengefuny against the unit of so-
Arizona republican., 1913-02-09

ciety that they have forced to be- come criminal.
 On the contrary side. naturally one would feel resentful, mOrtally vengeful should such an occurrence as cited by Dr. Hughes occur, the deliberate murder of "a lovely daugh ter" But he forgets that that is personal reveLge against which his much quoted bible sends forth an unmistakab ble commandment. Ven geance is mine, saith the Lord" To logically carry out this view would be to go back to the days of bar barism, where it was permissible nay, obligatory, that the relatives of the slain might in turn kill the slayer Does he advise recrudes- cence?
 l differ very materially from the statistics he adduces regarding the increase of murder in states that have abolished the death penalty. that is, differ in this respect; the abolition of such punishment makes il necessary to substitute a real. sure punishment for the death penalty, which is rot done in many eases such as he quotes. Later if neces- sary. I shall show other states and nations that report a far different result of, adopting more humane, practical and sensible method of pun ishing murderers
 France, for instance when this method Of the dark ages was re- stored witnessed such scenes of bru- 'tality and bloCd-ust as she had not witnessed since the French reVolu- tion Men of the lower, more brutal class, sWarmed to the execution, fought and paid for seats of vantage that they might more fully glut the desire for seeing brutal blood letting
 Returning briefly to the habit of non enforcement of the laws as We have them. I wish to make It as forcible as it can be made that l. nor anyone else, wishes to see the guilty criminal pardoned or, in any sense, freed from the penalty Of his deeds The pardoning power, when abused. is nearly always abused sim Div because the executive. knowing that the parties freed are innocent and persecuted and, having no other means in his power. has to use the only perogative he has. It Is a well known fact that these petitions for
Arizona republican., 1913-02-09

the pardon of coEvicts are very often signed by the judge, jury and prosecuting attorneys that prosecut- ed. convicted and sentenced him. Isn't this grave condition of af- fairs and are not the ones responsi- ble for the injustice far more to be Censured for their efforts to pardon than any governor?
 As a final test of whether the death penalty is regarded as a pro- duct of civilization, talk with cultured a class not as an individual, be- cause there are exceptions to this general statement-but talk with the cultured class and ask their convic- tions regarding capital punishment. Then, ask another class-the ignor, ant. brutal. primeval- minded, brute imbued class
 The ma jority of the former will be opposed to the death penalty, the latter is overwhelmingly in ia vor of it. Now. the important ques- ton is: Do we prefer being ruled by the cultured. thinking. humane and fairminded. or by the opposite class? I prefer much prefer. the former.
 Finally, while I have written this article hurriedly, with no data by me except that gleaned from mem 0rY-reading. observing. travelling and natural, normal feeling-and while have not had time to correct the article, yet l feel sure that my gen eral position is impregnable, either by facts, honest beliefs of the bet ter class or by the opposition of the teachings of Christ. But that I am joined by thousands who be- lieve in a better society, a fair so- ciety, a society wherein every man will feel that he must do right or that he will be severely punished and made to do so-but that he will not be murdered and thus be de- prived of atoning for his wrong do- ing. Such a society will be in ac cord with that society which Jesus Christ desired and which all great and good men, who really think and arrive at conclusions after careful, honest and thorough investigation of all sides of any subject.

 MEET JOHNSON AGAIN
Mexican Scrapper Says He Didn't Try to Show Against Dinge at Kelly Benefit and Wants Another
 Chance.

T challenge anybody my weight in the vest said Manuel Avilez the other day He evidently resented the way he said he had been banned in The Republican for not showing against Johnson, the dinge, in the third bout at Spider Keily's benefit the other night, and he said so. He also asserted he was not trying to put on any steam against the smoke, which is just what The Republican said about him The result of his discussion in this office simmered down stands at the head of this paragraph.
 Avilez is a lad who has been taking 'em on in and around Phoenix for sCme time He first blossomed out in prelmnaries last spring when there were bouts here Since then he has fought in Cananea, Mexico, but that is as far as his experience in outside rings goes. With boxing on such a precarous footing in Arizona, AvileZ cannot make good his words in this state. So he has allowed he is willing to go to California, New Mexico or anywhere that le bOxe flourishes more than it does in this climate He particularly wants to get inside the ropes with that Johnson kid once more. T know l can lick him. l hit him more than he did me the other night and l was not try ing. You are right that boy has a great defense and kick in each mitt, but I can get him." If California would offer a refuge, AvileZ would gladly go there to mix with either Johnson or anyone else in the same class It is certain Phoenix would look with interest on the ring cam paign of one of her sons,- elsewhere.
