DEATH PENALTY OPPOSED BY MRS.
 ". I. HINCKS
But Leader of Equal Suffrage Movement Would Have Same Law For Men
 And Women.
Rev. E. J. Craft Opposes Capi- tai Punishment, And Especially Hanging
 Of Women.

Mrs. William T. Hincks is opposed to capital punishment, but believes that in the case of Mrs. Wakefield it will be better the law should take it's course, since capital punishment is provided by law.
 Rev. E. J. Craft is opposed to capital punishment, and believes that the sen tence of Mrs. Wakefield should be com muted. Mrs. Hincks, interviewed by Farmer reporter, said that she herself had always had a very high regard and respect for the courts and their decis- ions and felt that while the law is as it is, it should be enforced.
 VI am not inclined 10 spare the wo- man and give the penalty to the man as are many suffragtsts,'' continued Mrs. Hincks.
 Murder is such a terrible crime I feel it should be punished and until we have a better way for taking care of the criminals, the law as it is today should be carried out. Until we can elevate society as whole, such laws are needed for it's protection and must be put into force.
 +In order to effect this elevation, we suffragists feel that we should be begin at the beginning-the health of the child. think that crime is almost ab- solutely a result of physically defec- tive bodies-sore eyes, poor teeth and so forth.
 UT IA1S reason Inlnk that cdp1IdA punishment should be done away with as soon os possible. I would be one of the first to favor it's abolition
 Appended is a copy of the resolu- tions passed by the executive board of the c. w. s. A. For reasons stated above, Mrs. Hincks voted with the mi nority against this resolution:
 Whereas, The executive board of the c. W. s. A. condemns capital pun ishment, and whereas women at the present time in Connecticut have no voice in making the laws determining penalty for crime, and whereas, Bessie Wakefield, a woman now under sen tence Of death, was not tried by a jury Of her peers, be it resolved, that we protest against this extreme penalty being applied to a member of a, class which has been denied the protection of representation.
 And be it further resolved, that a copy of this resolution be sent to the Board of Pardons and the Associated Press
 Rev MT. Craft, when interviewed by a Farmer reporter relative to the ques- tion of hanging Mrs. Wakefield, in his impressive way said:N ''I am not in fla Vor ofhanging anyone, and especially am not in favor of hanging a women.
 There are so many causes which which society as a whole is responsi- bIe.
 Tt would do the people of Connecti- cut no good to take her Itfe
 T am looking forward 10 time when eiYilizat ton shall have reached such standard that there will be no such thing as d death penalty.
 No am not at all in favor Of cap ita1 punishment"

A remonstrance is being signed in the West End against the transfer of the liquor license of James H. Vel don from it's present location, 304 State street, to a new building at Bassick avenue and States street opposite the West End post office. MT. Weldon recently applied to the county com license.

 Bostwick avenue, a short street, be- tween Fairfield avenue and State street, has some thirty cottages. All the persons who live on this street of the families number several small children. The remonstrance petition is being circulated by the household CTS on the street. It also has the en- dorsement of Joshua T. Butler, who owns considerable property in that neighborhood.
 The West End Boys club is located in the second story of the building where it is proposed to establish the saloon.

Jr-, this morning. This stand had been taken largely on ac- count Of the defense of drivers to the effect that they have to push the horses in order to make deliveries re- qulred to hold their jobs.

Michael said that he was over worked and had to urge the horse in order to make required deliveries Agent Bishop was notified and called on MT. Orlin twice yesterday. He found the employer anxious to com ply with the request but in doubt as to what could be done.
