Five men were convicted of murder
and sentenced to be electrocuted IN
the Greenville court in the recent ses-
sion, including one white man OF
some prominence This is record
that we do not believe has ever been
eoualed in South Carolina, that in five
separate trials convictions should
result carrying the death sentence.
Having no knowledge of any of the
Greenville cases, we would not at
tempt to offer comment on these con-
victions, other than to remark that
if juries all over South Carolina look
ed upon murder as did the Greenville
juries we would confidently expect
a decided decrease in the number OF
homicides in our State.

"JUSTIFIABLE" HOMICIDE.

The other day in the upper part
of the State a coroner's jury, accord
ing to the press dispatches, rendered
a verdict "completely generating a
man who shot and killed another man
in his barn. Some coroners and cor
oner's juries have a queer and exas-
gerated idea of their duties in con-
nection with inquisitions. If we un-
derstand the law in the matter, a
coroner's jury is to determine py
what means and at whose hands the
deceased came to his or her death.
That and nothing more. AS to Whe-
ther or not the killing was justlhed
is a matter for the general sessions
court jury to determine after hearing
the evidence in the case. In this par
ticular case, no doubt the man who
did the killing was technically and
legally not guilty of murder, and
vet il is because human life is held
80 cheap that the State of South car
olina has a reputation for homicides
scarcely equaled by any other section
Of the world. The press dispatches
in the case here referred to state that
the dead man came to the farmers S
house and asked for water and got
it. and then went toward the barn,
Later the farmer saw a light in the
harm and went to Investigate, taking
his gun along, which was all right.
Calling on the man to get out and the
man not complying, he shot and Kill
cd the intruder. Inasmuch as the
stranger was an intruder and a tres
passer, doubtless no jury in South
Carolina would do otherwise tnan
acquit the farmer. And yet, is ne
blameless? Was it necessary to shoot
to kill; was it necessary to shoot at
ally Is it not true that men shoot to
kill in such circumstances because
they are following a precedent and
knowing that they will, be acquitted?
Most people will dismiss the matter
by remarking that the dead man was
nothing but a tramp. Yet it was
human life, just as much as, II ne
were a millionaire. Anyway, 1t IS
certainly not for the coroner's jury
to determine the guilt or innocence
of the man behind the gun.

OFFERS THE TOWN TEAMS.

A citizen of Bamberg, who is
prominent farmer and business man,
has asked The Herald to say some
thing about the city's sereets. We
do not attach any blame to the city
council for the condition of the city's
Streets. The city council certainly
appears to be trying to do something
for the town, and we would not him
Ger with criticism. But this gentle
man made a remark which is worth
passing along. 1t was this. He
stands ready to contribute five teams
for at least three days, or an equiv
lent of fifteen teams for one day, to
be used in improving the streets of
Bamberg, of course contingent on
others doing the same thing. This
citizen, like the majority of others
in town, is rejoicing to see the work
of improvement going on on Main
street, and he fully realizes that in
order to pave the main thoroughfare
the city treasury is being heavily
drained. At the same time, he says
that an automobile can scarcely trav-
ell six miles an hour on any of the
streets of the town. That it would
be quite impossible for the town at
this time to undertake to improve all
the city streets he understands fully,
but he feels like The Herald that the
farmers and others owning teams
hereabouts would gladly cooperate
with the council by providing teams,
for hauling clay. Inasmuch as this
would be the biggest item in street
improvement, it would appear that
it would almost solve the problem.
It might be further stated that this
same gentleman is paying something
like $500 for Main street paving in
front of his property.

The Herald is frequently asked by
advertisers and others to give space
to publicity matter in connection with
some article they sell or some firm
they represent The Herald has al
ways declined to give space to pub
icity matter in connection with ad-
vertising or without it, and our rea-
son is that publicity matter is moth
ing but yelled advertising, written
in a shrewd manner to get advertis-
ing without paying for it, and if we
should publish such matter it would
be really better advertisinglthan dis
play space, because it purports to be
written by the editor and to have the
editors sanction and approval. All

ma fide and paid for While we would

CEM'SLANDS TO BE,
REDUCED
Tentative Agreement Reached for
Reduction of Valuation 10 Per Cent

The forceful facts presented 20 the
state board of equalization in roise
last week by Gem county officials and
others had their effect and tentative
agreement was reached by the board
to reduce the increase in valuation of
Gem county irrigated lands in the Em-
nett Irrigation District from 80 FER
cent to 20 per cent.
When news of 80 per cent in
crease was received, Harry Carmichael
court house deputy, suggested that q
protest should be made on the ground
that lands under the Canyon canal
were owing $40 an acre for water
rights. The justice of the suggestion
appealed to the board of commission
ers, Assessor MCGOWAN and Auditor
Church and they presented their ar
guments to the state board with the
result that the justice of the claims
for a reduction were recognized

DR.. CUMMINGS MUIR
Ed BY EXPLOSION
Was Shooting Gun When Breeck
Came Apart-Hand Suf-
fers Injury.

DR.. R. N. Cummings suffered severe
injuries to his left hand last Friday
evening when gun he was shooting
became unfastened at the breech and
the shell was blown backwards.
The gun was German flare gun"
which DR.. Byrd had brought back
from France as souvenir 1t was
used to send up signals by the Ger
mans and used paper shell about 6
inches long, which was loaded with
powder and chemicals that give off
colored lights. The two doctors plan
ned to show the light effects. When
the gun was shot off by DR.. Cum
mings, the breech evidently was not
locked and it blew open. The force Of
the explosion threw the doctors thumb
out of joint, broke bone in the thumb
and one in the wrist and tore long
cash in the hand. The barrel of the
gun was torn loose and buried in the
dirt nearby. The injured man will be
laid up for several weeks.

TWILLEGAR MUST
STAY
Writ of Eabeas Corpus Quashed by
Judge Bryan

A petition for writ of habeas cor
pus to release Gordon Twilegar from
the Canyon county jail was quashed
Monday by Judge Ed 1. Bryan, after
hearing was held in the district
court at Caldwell. City Attorney
Workman appeared for the city of
Emmett.
The writ was filed Friday by Twill
egar's attorney, Mr.. Dunbar of Boise.
In his petition Twilegar alleged that
he is illegally held in Jail and that the
police judge of this city { D. M.
Stokesberry) had exceeded his juris-
diction in sentencing him to six
months in jail and to fine of $3.50.
The allegations were based on the be-
lief that Emmett is a city of the sec
ond class and that under the law the
city is limited in enforcing an ordin-
ance by fine not to exceed $100 for
any offense.
Judge Bryan, in quashing the writ,
based his decision upon law enacted
by the last legislature which gives to
any police judge the same powers as
a justice of the peace possesses within
the limits of the town he presides in,
and therefore Judge Stokesberry's did
not exceed his powers in sentencing
the accused
