THE LAST APPEAL

The persistence OF the attorneys OF
Leo NJ. Frank is admirable. which sug-
gosts more than the perfunctory duty
counsel owes to a client. As 4 last
resort they have filed a petition with
the Governor Of Georgia asking hat
the sentence OF death imposed upon
Frank be commuted to life imprison-
ment. That they do not ask for a
pardon now is because they do not
want to risk a refusal hat would en-
able the full sentence 10 be carried
cut. and not on o OF any lack
OF belief in his innocence. That sen
timent in Georgia is undergoing a
change is quite apparent. This has
been strengthened by a letter left by
the judge who presided at Franks
trial. and who died recently, that the
young man not only did not have a
fair trial. but that his guilt was not
c~onclusiyely proven. This letter is
now said to be in the hands of Franks
counsel. and will be used at the prop
er time. AT present the outlook is
somewhat brighter for the prevention
Of the execution of the death sentence.
The two decisions OF the United
States Supreme Court have been mis-
construed by many. Neither decision
had anything to do with the probable
guilt or innocence OF the appellant.
and was not %prejudicial to him in thai
respect. This court merely consid-
cred the law as to the regularity of
his trial. and decided that he had due
process OF law" but upon which point
the court was divided.

ROOSEYELTS REVISION

There is much to be learned from
the proceedings In the Barnes Roose-
welt libel suit. and. probably. a much
light will come to Col. Roosevelt as to
anyone connected with IL intimately
or remotely. The corruption In New
York politics that is being exposed
II not new Col. Roosevelt's evidence
has developed nothing that was not
already OF common knowledge. but
there Is a phase of his attitude, which
seems to have been the afterthought
of his personal abuse OF Mr.. Barnes.
that conveys n weighty lesson and
conviction. He now declares that his
vicious assaults on Boss Barnes
were not intended TO reflect on his
personal honesty and probity. but
were directed against the system he
was hooked up with. the political hab-
Its and customs of the age. We do
not question Col. Roosevelt's sim
certify in this revision of his intent.
but II is remarkable that he should
have been so long in admitting that IL
was the system and not the man he
was firing at. His concessions in this
instance are very much like the high
or order OF temperance agitators who
disclaim any enmity toward the man
I'm the liquor business. but who do
damn the business and its influences
and associations. But he was a little
late in swinging around to these ron
illusions and repudiating the rash i'm
pulses which led him to defame Mr..
Barnes private character.
The trouble with reformers OF the
Roosevelt class and most of the evan
gels of the uplift is their rrogan as
sumption OF impeccability; their mo-
nOpolization of all the political and
civic virtues. crystallizing into the
"holier than thou attitude. They
