THE MOONEY CASE.

FORMULATION to life imprisonment Of the death sen
- tence imposed Thomas Mooney convicted OF the
murder Of ten persons in San Francisco will be approved
for several reasons In the first place the wide campaign
for cemercy has aroused doubt TO Moneys guilt
Appareny that doubt did extend 10 the governor o
California but in committing the sentence, he at least gives
time for any effort which may be forth to dprove the
guilt fastened upon Mooney by the courts OF California and
with which finding the supreme court OF the United States
could find no reason to interfere.
The eommutaton will also remove Mooney from the
martyr class The further publicity which will follow may
enph,en labor to the fact that Mooney /, moi their friend

sheyi,t who seek to attain their ends by violence The

II Mooney is innocent Of the crime proven against him

the death penalty gives time and opportunity to prove the

conviction And Il he i, guilty as many firmly believe
there is severe punishment in life imprisonment lie has
