NO CAPITAL PUNISHMENT

1t would he hard to imagine more
hsartless and unjustitiable murder than
the crime Of the men who robbed a
bank 1T Bay City. Michigan, Saturday
night. Rushing into the bank, six armed
men shot down two customers who
were there on business. and who had
not attempted to defend themselves or
10 oppose the criminals in any manner.
The fiends then took about $1,000 and
escaped.
For less than thousand dollars
apiece, these murderOus villains took
the lives of two respected and valued
citizens Nothing should be left un-
done to catch this gang. and when they
are caught every one OF them should
pay the extreme penalty.
Unfortunately. Michigan Is one Of
the states which has no death penalty,
and life Imprisonment Is the severest
punishment that can be inflicted. This
fact goes 4 long way toward explaining
such crime. Knowing their own lives
are safe from the laws. these ,fiends
had no hesitation in killing.

The Value Of Paving

There time when it question whether
Pueblo should have paved streets, and Pueblo peo
pie remember when it claimed that Pueblo could not
afford paving, should continue with nothing better
than rivers of mud and deserts of dust between the
poorly marked sidewalks. That question settled
today who does know that paving is both
essary and desirable.
The only question is when and under what condi-
tons the paved district in Pueblo shall be extended
For many years in most cities it the custom to
extend paving in flush times and to do nothing in dull
times Now it generally understood that this Is the
wrong system. Public improvements should be made IN
dull times because then they cost less because they do
not compete with the business demand for labor and
materials because in the dull times paving and other
public improvements give employment to men who might
otherwise be out of work.
There is particular need of paving in Pueblo at the
present time because Pueblo needs the paving and be-
cause Pueblo need the work. Not far distant the
business sea lies the open channel to prosperity but for
the next weeks the good ship Pueblo in shoa water
waiting for the rising tide. 1t is not question at the
present time of preparing for long continued period of
hard times. but rather keeping things going few days
There is no better do this than to forward
the paving projects that have already been initiated In
no other way can the people Of Pueblo plainly mani
fest faith their city, and the impetus to
well be just the thing that is needed to take us off
the sandbar stagnaon and set afloat in
the channel of prosperity.

this is exchanged with other manu-

because each of these countries has
also surplus. The result is that tho
actual surplus OF what labor produces,

for claim of persecution of Debs by the federal gov
ernment.
The fact that Debs is free today is the best possible
proof that the talk of poltcal prisoners and of per-
secution for opinions sake is plain There are
many persons who think that Debs should have been left
in prison until the expiration of his sentence, and that
his release was abuse of the pardoning power and
violation of the principles of justice.
Those who remain in prison not political prison.
ers they criminal convicts guilty a serious offences
against the federal laws and against the and safety

seem to think that if criminal also revoluilonlst he
ceases to a criminal that if he declares himself TO be

from any obligation to obey the laws TO respect the
personal and property rights of other people
Such position is absurd, but if Debs- were sanely
