ON Mr.. FISHER REGARDING
CAPITAL PUNISHMENT

Mr.. H. G. Fisher, in speaking
against capital punishment. remarked
he could not understand how any
Christian could approve capital pun.

, tian can approve of the breaking OF
one of the commandments of Almighty
God and that, too, the first command

only commandment, but a solemn
covenant. to execute the murderer.
fully agree with Mr.. Fisher that
,human life is sacred. So did God, and
he hedged it about with a solemn cove
nant with Noah to execute the one
who had taken human life.
Murder had become SO frequent be-
fore the flood that the earth was filed
with violence. and God determined on
the utter destruction of human life
with the exception of the one righte-
Gus man; and the first thing he did
after the flood was to make a cove
nant with Noah and his seed after
him. a perpetual covenant to all gener-
ations.

man he gave the right to eat the flesh

fishes. right man did not have until
God gave it to him.
And porhopc Mr. EiSbar powar
thought about it, as l judge he is not
a very deep thinker or a very great
student of the Bible, but every time
he kills a chicken or eats beef steak
or looks upon God born in the blood
and admires its beauty. he renews his
covenant with God to execute the
murderer.
When he refuses and teaches men
so. he is covenant breaker-and in
the scriptures a covenant breaker is
second only to the murderer. He says.

that is all right, but how long. We
have one instance in the Bible of
murderer repenting and one instance
of one repenting in the agonies of
death, and only one, and do you re-

of man or woman who processes to
be more merciful than God; they don't
seem to have any mercy or sympathy
for the lesser criminals. They spend
it all on the murderer. the man that
has killed steer or stolen something
to feed his family don't excite their
sympathy.
He has laid his sacreligious hand
upon the God Of this world, the al
mighty dollar.
ID Those who have received pardons
since have heen in Colorado have
almost invariably been the most no
torious criminals. and a great many Of
them have gone out breathing venge-
ance on some of their prosecutors.
The last one that was pardoned
didn't say anything. at least that was
published, that showed that the fact
of his being a murderer weighed very
heavy on his conscience, but rather
posed as hero and martyr.
Oh, this everlasting gush and sym

murderer. is not really mercy but the
cruelist of cruelty to the world at
large. Read the Ninth Chapter OF
Genesis. G. T. GIBBS.
