Governor Ben w. Hooper, of Ten.
nessee, recently committed the sen
tence of negro criminal from electro
cution to life Imprisonment He gave
as his reason for so doing, his belief
that the negro had been ''railroaded''
to the chair This called forth bit
ter retort from the trial Judge, A. B.
Neil, of Nashville, and Governor Hoop
er has made public a statement in
which he sets forth his views OF this
case in particular and such methods
in general.
The particular case is not of inter-
est or value to Mississippi, but the
wisdom and justice set forth in Gov
ernor Hooper's splendid paper ought
to be digested by the general public
of Mississippi and every other state,
and especially by lawyers and jurists.
Ed. News.
Governor Hooper's paper follows:
There should be some permanent
and adequate method provided by law
for the defense of men charged with
grave offenses, who are without coun-
sci, the means of employing it, or the
opportunity to prepare for trial.
THE criminal laws are designed to
punish the guilty, not the innocent,
and to inf1ict upon the guilty penal
ties that are reasonable and just and
not cruel and inhuman. The punish
ment of the innocent or the over-pun-
ishment of the guilty does not pro-
tect society but imposes upon it in
jury and injustice.
THE state provides an elaborate
system for the prosecution and con-
viction of men charged with crime.
This is right and necessary. 1t has
sheriffs, constables, police officers and
detectives to run down and arrest Of
tenders and to- gather evidence for
their conviction. 1t has attorneys
general to direct the preparation Of
cases and to prosecute at the trial
thereof.
ITO meet all this, the defendant,
who has means, employs his own
counsel gathers all the available evil
dence, procures the attendance of wit
nesses, gets the benefit of continu-
atees, enlists the assistance of infu-
entail friends, and makes every con-
eeivable preparation to meet the on
slaugh of the state. The doing of all
these things Is the defendants right,
according to him by the law.
But what becomes of the man who
has no money, no friends. no counsel?
Here is the usual course of his
case, and every intelligent citizen and
lawyer knows it.
"He is arrested and placed in jail.
Having no counsel. no preparation is
made for his trial. Having either no

friends at all or none of any influence
or means, he gets no help from the
outside. Unable to make bond, he Is
deprived of the chance to look up his
evidence and make his own feeble eff
fort to get ready to face the state.
Situation AS It Is.
'In the meantime, the able Attor-
ney-General and his assistants are u.s.
ing all the powerful machinery of the
law to prepare case against the de-
PENDANT that will send him to the pen
itentiary or the electric chair. When
the case is reached, defendant is
brought out of jail, and faces the rep
resentatives of the state in about the
same plight as an unarmed man stand
ing before firing squad Of sharp
shooters.
The court calls the case. The state
announces ready. Yes, II is ready af-
ter its months of preparation. The
defendant is asked If he has a lawyer.
No, he has none. Has he the money
to employ one? No, he has not. Then
the couru appoints a member of the
bar to defend the prisoner. This law
yer gets no compensation, and gener-
ally considers the time he devotes to
the case wasted. If he is an expert
enced and busy lawyer he feels that
this service is an unjust encroachment
upon the. time already contracted to
his other clients. In a great majority
of instances, however the court ap-
points some young and inexperienced
member of the bar and shoves him up
against a hopeless proposition that
would handicap even a veteran law
yer. The lawyer does one of two
things. He either puts up the best
fight he can or makes the best trade
he can with the Attorney General The
later course is usually adopted as a
time-sayer The defendant is frequent
ly advised by the officials by whom
he has been surrounded that his sub
mission upon the agreed term viii
save him several years in the peni-
Tertiary. Sometimes this may be true,
but generally it is not.
ut will not do to get the idea that
the Acknowledgement will take care
of the defendants interests. This
cannot be true. The Attorney Gen
erals business is to convict, and the
unprepared defendant and his appoint
ed and unpaid counsel must take care
Of themselves. The practice Of the
law is a game-a contest Of wits, and
the Attorney-General soon acquires
the fixed and unrelenting habits of
thought of the prosecutor. He likes
to win his cases and make record
as we'll as any other lawyer.

a kind-hearted Attorney-General will
look at the case from the viewpoint Of
the helpless defendant. but under the
law, the rules and the conditions,
this is exceptional.
Take the case Of this negro as
fair example of the system.
HE had been in the state about one
year. Had no relatives OF friends here
and no money. He was in Jail, where
he could not help himself. The Judge
gave him chance to get counsel, but
he could not. When his case was
called he was utterly unprepared.
Helpless and undefended. he stood
charged with a crime that meant
death. About noon the day before his
trial the court appointed Mr.. Guild
Smith to represent the prisoner. Mr.
Smith did everything that any lawyer
could have done that afternoon to look
up evidence and get ready, but in the
short time allotted made no Roadway.
Next day he tried to get continu-
ance. 1t was denied. Defendant was
convicted. The jury found mitigating
circumstances. The Judge ignored
this recommendation and sentenced
defendant to death by electrocution.
This negro was numerically rail.
roaded toward death. without a dogs
chance.
"The law should provide a public
defender to represent poor and friend
less defendants charged with grave
offenses, at least, in the cities Of the
state where the criminal dockets are
congested, and the floating wreckage
Of human family is dashed helplessly
upon the rocks"
