The EIectrOcution Bill.

A bill is pending before the legisls-
ture which has for its purpose the sub
stitution Of electrocution for hanging
a. punishment for capital offences.
This is its overt purpose. Bot we
doubt not that il has another purpose.
II. subtle purpose, We apprehend, is TO
find a mesn- for taking life in capital
cases because Governor Cruce has
stood resolutely against the Inhietion
Of the death penalty by hanging.
IL il not brcAuse the death penalty
is paid by means Of rope that there
is objection TO capita punishment in
Oklahoma The objection exist. be-
cause u the means. whether Il be =
rope or ~ electric chat, and il based
on the belief that the state possesses
no right 20 take human life.
We are aware that IL may shork IN.
Il er sensibilities Of the criminal court
Of appeals % this state TO say il. bot
w- say Il nevertheless that capita
punishment is a relic OF barbaric age.
The belief thar il is iustiiiable for or

cause they pull teeth. And yet all ar,
more iu-tifiable, on humane grounds
than taking life because a life has
been taken.
There are other adequate means for
punishins murderers. And that they
will be found equally as potential for
deterring capital offences goes with
out -sying.
The OKiahomau is not opposed L.
the eleetrocntion bill per Sc, but to the
means which II provides for inAicting
punishment. We can see little differ
ence between choking a man to death
at the end af rope and burning him
up with electricity

that IL Is powerless to humanize a
