Meantime, Dan Casey Is Dead

Governor Pierce of Oregon gave the Casey case long
and prayerful consideration. And Dan Casey is dead,
having been hanged by the neck.
The concluded that Casey had been tried by
jury of his peers and found guilty of murder in the
first degree and that Judge had sentenced him to death
The governor held that If justice erred IN acquttlng
Burns it did not err in eonvcting Casey, and that
two wrongs do not make q right.
This is the legal view,
The legal mind would brush the Burns case from mem
DRY finished and consider the Casey independently
of the Burns The public mind does not work in this
fashion.
For the public cannot forget that Gurns and Casey
were tried for the same crime-the murder of Deputy
Sheriff Phlips-and that by the very nature of the
case they must have been equally guilty or equally inno-
cent.
The public remembers the Burns case and the Casey
case, not two.
The Star altho giving the Oregon governor credit for
having shown courage in letting Casey hang, and for
having followed the dictates of his conscience neverthe
less is sorry the executive did not commute Caseys
sentence TO life Imprisonment.
Not that we weep overmuch for Casey.
Casey not important; society spare him. So
cety could get along without Burns Society, for that
matter is getting along without Deputy Sheriff Phillips
who was good and useful man.
Society would like to have confidence in its Law and
Justice. II would like TO believe Law and Justice in
falble. More important than Casey Burns Phillips,
Governor Pierce, Mayor Brown President Coolidge, or
any other American you may care to MENTION alive or
dead, high or low, is public confidence in Law and
Justice.
And such cases as the Burns-and-Casey case destroy
public confidence in Law and Justice Because here Law
and Jusce-or Law Justice-erred erred when il let
Burns go free erred when it hanged Casey.
Public belief in the consistency of Law and Justice is
worth more than ten thousand lives.
Better to have let Casey free than to convict Justice
of inconsistency Better to reach out and grab Burns and
hang hinl-which of course cannot be done because
cannot be placed twice in jeopardy for a crime
than to convict Justice of inconsistency.
The public mind hanged Justice in effgy when Justice
hanged Casey.

A Fair "Lipin q" Wage

Samuel D. Warmer, head of the anthracite operators
committee, is quoted saying I'VE believe the wage
paid anthracite miners today is fair and just living
wage"
Whenever employer of labor thus uses that word
living in controversy about wages know precisely
what his mental attitude is toward the whole so-caled
labor problem.
1t is the attitude of the feudal overload who looks upon
his employees reainers to be paid just enough keep
them in health to produce profits for said overload
A just and fair wage is one thing, "just and fair
LIVING wage" is quite something else
Every or woman who works is entitled to a lust
and fair wage, based upon equitable distribution be-
tween wages and profits of the wealth produced
There is reason for limiting wages to the
mere living point than there is for limiting profits
in the way.
The profits of the anthracite mine owners always have
been and extraordinarily large. They are en-
trey out of line with profits in industry as whole
in this country.
All the anthracite miners have got out of it is
enough to live at certain standard, none too high de-
cided upon by the operators.
The operators fix their profits fix the price the
consumer must pay and refuse to raise wages on the
ground that their employees vng-or words to that
effect.
