subordination of the military to the
civil power, the privilege of the writ |
OF habeas corpus, and the right of
trial by jury in the civil courts for |
offenses cognizable by them; and the |
conclusiVeness of the executive de-
claration of a state of war
Under these decisions the life and |
liberty of every man within the state |
would seem to be at the mercy of the
governor. He may declare a state |
of war, whether the facts justify such |
a declaration or not, and that de- |
claration is conclusive upon the |
courts.
eff he declares only a portion of |
the state to be in a state of war, a |
person in any other part of the state,
however distant, may be arrested and |
delivered to the military authorities in
the martial zone, and his fate, wheth-
er liberty or life, depend on the action |
of military commission. For know
of no principle which authorizes a
military commission to impose the
punishment of imprisonment that
would not equally authorize the inn
position of the punishment of death.
These decisions exalt the military
power beyond any height hitherto
known in this country.
"They assert the power of the mill
tary, at the uncontrolled discretion of
a single man, to dispose of the life
and liberty of any person within the
state. .,
"The lust for military Intervention
in civil matters grows upon what it
feeds on. One violation of liberty and
law leads to another till the practice
becomes common.
eff it be true that in this country
order cannot be maintained and the
law enforced by the civil authorities,
but we must constantly resort to
military force, our boast of freedom

one of the witnesses who appeared in
his trial, according to an interview
with Becker.
Il think that one of the witnesses
in my trial killed Rosenthal," Becker
is quoted as saying. 81 haven't got
the proof now, butt is my belief that
he is the slayer You know he was
drunk that night, according to his
own testimony. He said he didn't re-
member what happened.
81 feel sorry for those boys in the
death house. l think they ought to
have new trial because don't think
they actually killed Rosenthal."

reporters in the Office of Warden

Sam Schepps as perjurer and said

In the true profit sharing, says
Mr.. Perkins, there is a form of So

real partners of employer and en-
