Little Falls herald. [volume] (Little Falls, Morrison County, Minn.) 1889-1950, 1916-02-25
Nj 1APIyAI, PuNIaIIhGI.EI:r1T

Red Wing Daily Eagle: There is q
very active campaign in progress for
"a restoration Of capital punishment in
Minnesota, says the Mankato Review.
This campaign has been stimulated by
"a number Of particularly atrocious
murders, most notable among these be-
ing the Staying Of Mrs. Price by her
husband at Minneapolis, the shooting
Of Joseph Breining by bandit in the
same city and a number Of similar
murders nearly all Of which were COM
mitted in Minneapolis.
If the abolition of capital punish
ment is the cause for this epidemic
Of murder, will some one kindly ex-
plain. why the crimes have not been
more uniformly distributed over the
stateg The fact that most of them
have taken place in a single city
points to local conditions as explain
atory of them rather than to state
wide policy such as the doing away
with capital punishment.
The minister who officiated at the
funeral of Joseph Breining in Min
neapolis few weeks ago incorporat-
ed in his sermon a plea for the death
penalty upon the one who committed
the murder. It might have been more
to the point if he had called for an
overturning Of the inefficient police
force which has thus far failed to To-
cate the criminal or the perpetrators
of a number of similar crimes in the
same city.
This plea on the part Of a Chris
tian minister is but an application of
the old vindictive principle of can
eye for an eye and a tooth for
tooth.'

We are pleased to print the above

just about to make comment on the
matter. According to one of the com
mittee, the matter was taken up only
as by-play and to s'worry' Christian
son, one of the committee, whose
ideas on this matter they well know.
The "resolve'' was taken seriously
by the metropolitan papers mentioned,
no doubt, because they wished to read
their own ideas into it. The resolu-
ton means just what it was inten ded
to mean,-if the word of one of the
so-called "stand-pat' members of the
committee is to be taken-nothing.

MODERN P0RTIA' LOSES CASE
Thief River Falls Woman Makes Her
Own Plea in Sensational d.
vorce Case.

Thief River Falls, Mimi. Feb. a.
Bringing to close the most sensa-
tional divorce case ever filed in Pen
nington county the court granted an
absolute decree of separation to At
torney E. M. Stanton of this city from
his wife, Fannie R. Stanton. The case
has aroused statewide interest be-
cause of the fact that Mrs. Stanton
pleaded her own case and became
known as the Modern Portia."
Mr.. Stanton charged his wife, in the
filing of the proceedings, with deser.
ton. to which his wife made an elo-
quent plea in defense, claiming that
the affair was simply misunderstand~
ing and that she had no reason to de-
sert her husband whom she had al
ways loved. .

SENSIBLE JUDGE NYE

Princeton Union. In a private let
ter to the publisher, which we take
the liberty Of quoting from, Judge
Carroll A. Nye, writes:
1T appreciate deeply the kindly
words in the Union concerning myself
as an officer, though I think they may
be undeserved.
"Of one thing I assure you, viz: I
am not and shall not be a candidate
for any office other than the one I am
now holding. I fear I am too much of
an independent in my political views
to ever enter the lists for any parti-
san office. But what is more to the
point, this office is more in accord
ance with my tastes and with my am
bition, so far as I have any,
The Union is pleased and the peo-
pie Of the Seventh judicial district
will pleased to know that Judge Nye
prefers his present place on the bench
to any partisan office.
The Seventh judicial district has
always been fortunate in having
judges of character and ability, and
they have always been selected with
out regard to their political affilia-
tions.

State Oil Inspector Rush says the
buying of low gravity oil will help
out the gasoline situation in a large
measure. Contrary to the general
idea among automobile drivers, the
lower priced oil, he states, is more eff
ficient and economical. Only is the
higher gravity oil preferable in start
ing the crank machines in cold wealth
er, but even this trouble is put at a
minimum on account Of the better
ment in carbureter making. For the
self-starter, he says, there is no valid
reason for demanding gasoline with
a high gravity test.

Adequately Secured Against
Aggression by Neighbor.

London, Feb. 24-Premier Asquith
found himself Unexpectedly face to
face in the House Of Commons with a
new demand for the governments
views on peace. He took up the
gauntlet almost eagerly and in q
bristling 15-minute speech made it
clear that the British governments
determination to carry on the war to
the end without compromise had not
abated since the early days Of the
struggle.
For Belgium and Serbia.
The only terms of peace Premier
Asquith offered to the enemy coun-.
tries were contained in the historic
announcement which was the out.
standing feature of his speech at the
London Guild hall in November, 1914,
which he repeated:
1--WE shall never sheath the sword
which we have not lightly drawn, I'M
til Belgium-and | will add, Serbia
recover in full measure all and more
than they have sacrificed; until
France. is adequately secured against,
aggression; until the rights of the
small nations of Europe are based
upon an unassailable foundation and
until the military domination of Prus-
STA is wholly and finally destroyed"
Premiere Position Applauded.,
The prime minister's stern declara.
ton created a deep impression on all
parts of the House and this found
reflection subsequently in the Hobbies.
The occasion for the premier's pro-
nouncement was speech which Phil
Up Snowden, of the Independent La
Dor party, injected into the debate on
the consolidated fund bill, routine
measure, providing appropriations
mainly for interest on the national
debt. Mr.. Snowden urged that the.
time was ripe for peace negotiations.
