In the death of James R. Mann, Republican
forces lose loyal and valued leader. For thirteen
consecutive terms, a period Of twenty-sxy years
Representative Mann has been powerful factor
in the house. His constituency had every conf
dence in his ability and Judgment and their faith
remained mistaken. His supporters we're ready
at every election to return him, and openly de-
clared that SO long as he lived he would be re-
turned to Congress over any opponent who might
appear. Mann was able fighter for his party,
he truly sacrificed himself on the altar Of his
party convictions, for his service as minority Lead
er brought aphyslcal collapse that told heavily in
spite ofsapparent recovery. Mann's last party ad-
vice was encouragement to the representatives who
are trying to get the ship subsidy bill passed He
was greatly interested in the success Of this bill.
Congress, both Democratic and Republican, will
mourn and miss this veteran. BE commanded the
respect Of all, regardless Of party afiliation.

For more than half century the
abolition of capital punishment has
been an issue in American public life.
Several states have dispensed with
the death sentence as the supreme
penalty for crime, and one or two of
these states have returned to the moose
and the electric chair as the only eff
fective means of both punishment and
diminishing murder.
In Mother o. Mine" the abolition
lists point out striking example of
the danger of the state assuming to

to get revolver from the drawer of
a table. The boy, fighting for his life,
forces the gun from his employers

The only witness to the ARRAY is the
mistress of the slain man, who, in spite
| of her waywardness, is sincerely de
