CONNCTS FORCED
TO SEE HANGING
SHERIFF AT CHICAGO MAKES A
GRUEsoME EXPERIMENT
IN PSYCHOLOGY.
PROTESTS ARE UNAvAILlNG
officer Commended That a Sight OF
Death Trappings and Execution
Would Have Statutory Ef-
feet on Criminals.

Ccicago.-An experiment in psychol.
pgy was tried at the county jail, in the
grizzly dim hour of dawn, when 200
prisoners were forced to witness the
hanging Of Raffaelo Outrage, convicted
murderer. Hardened criminals-se-
lected from among other murderers,
and felons whose expiation is not yet
the gallows-were placed in cells, tier
on tier of which surrounded the square
in which the scaffold had been erected.
1t was the contention of Sheriff
Peters that the sight of the gruesome
trappings would have a most Statutory
effect upon those in whose life might
come future temptations to Stay or to
rob or to burn.
And so firmly the sheriff believed
In the efficacy of this idea that he
persisted in It, despite the request Of
Gov. Lowden that he abandon his
plan, and other persons who thought
the scheme unnecessarily brutal.
Accordingly the stage was set in
the death chamber, Outrage was led
forth. The quiet in the death cham
Der became absolute for a moment.
Then the moose was slipped over the
murderer's head. From one Of the
higher tiers came striGent shout:
when do we eat?"
Tier by .ier, cell by cell, the cry
was taken up. 1t became a roar
above which the wardens' voices could
not be heard.
The trap was sprung Durrage
dropped into the space beneath the
scaff1d-dead.

his action. The statement reads as
follows:

The effort of any set of men, re-
gardless of party affiliations, who
go to the primary election to select
whom they think is the weakest
man on the opposition ticket are
doing the community an injustice
one which is more than likely to
cause the selection of man for
an all important office who does
not even stand well in his own
party. Such politics are unfair,
and are conceived in the archetype
of corrupt ward politics. A primary
election law that does not abolish
this evil fails in its efforts to place
in the hands Of the voters Of polit-
ical parties the right to select their
own candidates, Under the pres
ent procedure a man might re-
ceive a majority of the votes of his
party. and by rights should be de-
clared the nominee, but fails to do
SO on account of men who have no
right to participate in the primary
election of parties not their own,
voting for the weaker candidate.
