Speedy Justice in Tennessee.

Justice moved much more speedily
than usual in the case of the man who
was yesterday convicted at Bristol,
Tenn, Of the murder Of five persons
on the 26th Of November, just two
months before. This atrocious crime
so stirred the community that threats
Of lynching were uttered upon the ar
rest Of the murderer, but the mob spirit
was quieted by assurances that the man
would be promptly brought to trial.
This promise was kept, and proceed
ings were hastened so that If the sen,
tence of death. which has been i'm
posed, Is carried into effect he will
have expiated. his crime in the cleo
tric chair within four months .of the
slayings.
Recently in England two persons
were executed for a murder that had
been committed less than 100 days pre-
ceding, and this was noted at the time
as an illustration Of the promptness
Of punishment in that country. 1t
was not exceptional, but followed the
usual course. This Tennessee case is
an unusual exhibition Of expedited
procedure.
In all likelihood full justice has been
done, despite. the speed with which the
case has been carried to a conviction.
Yet II this crime had occurred in a

large city, and the accused had been
a man Of ample means suficient to
obtain counsel and to defray the cost
of appeals. he would have succeeded
in protracting the proceedings. There
should be no discrimination In these
matters. Justice should proceed as
swiftly in one case as in another. De-
of the calendars. partly to the liberal
ity with which delaying motions and
appeals are permitted and partly to
the protraction Of the trials them.
selves. Cases that should be heard to
a conclusion within a week are ex-
tended over many weeks, and others
that might be concluded in a day
without prejudice to the interest Of
the accused are spread over a week.
It Is not, Of course. desirable that
trials involving human life or liberty
should be rushed to the extent Of
denying the fullest chance to the ac-
cused to establish innocence. But in
the modern practice of the courts the
fullest advantage Is taken Of the rules
by both defense and prosecution to
multiply testimony, to pile up the rec.
ord, to repeat questions and answers
until the real issues are obscured and
the jury is wearied and confused. Re.
form of our court practice is urgently
required to the end that the law may
be made more effective and would-be
criminals deferred by the assurance
of swift. impartial justice.

The Harmless, Necessary Cat.

When the Russian famine was at
its height everything eatable was con-
sumed. The people were reduced to
the most extreme means of sustaining
life. Even the dogs and cats were
used for food. Now the country Is
suffering from the effect of this I'M
natural consumption Of domestic ami
mails. From Kiev comes a plea for
felines, to reduce the mice and rats
that are devastating the land. No
Pied Piper appears to lure away the
rodents and the southern Russians
are clamorous for the restoration of
the cats that once throve in the land.
The quotations are startling-five
million rubles for a promising young
ster. while adults Of the species bring
ten millions apiece. American house.
wives, concerned over the embarrass-
ing productivity on the part Of their
pets, may be encouraged by these fig.
ures. low as they may reduce in terms
OF dollars or cents.
A shipment of cats to Kiev would
probably make the exporter rich,
whatever the rate of ruble exchange.
1t would not be necessary to stock
the craft to capacity at sailing. Like
the express agent in that delectable
tale. pigs Is Pigs" the shipment may
grow to the point of embarrassment.
In this connection one is reminded Of
the apochryphal Chicago alderman
who. when the plans for the world
fair Of 1893 were under discussion, and
it was proposed to bring a number Of
gondolas from Venice for use on the
lagoon, objected to the expense of a
large importation and urged that only
two be brought over and then to 'let
nature take it's course"
The rats at Kiev may be the means
of bringing soviet Russia a little
closer to the rest of the world. The
cry for cats and more cats is very
human one and may arouse sympathy
for the deiuded subjects Of the CON-
missars.

In the immediate neighborhood Of

mediate surroundings IL to pre-empt

Considerations Of economy should
not operate in such q case. The
United States has spent many mil.
lions OF dollars for the protection Of
the natural wonders Of this land. 1t
has spent large sums also for the
preservation as national monuments
OF some of the more important battle
grounds. Fort Stevens should be in
cluded in this program OF landmark
retention.

Who Will Write the
True Story of the West?

Some day, somebody's Russian
Jew from Hester street, perhaps, who
never heard Of the wild west and its
traditions-will go to the Rockies
and write a novel of the west as it
really is-nobody has done 1t yet"
Thus writes q critic in the Argonaut.
And isn't 1t the truth? No one has
yet written of the west as IL really
didn't do It. Assuredly the scenario
writer's haven't done it. And the
Harold Bell Wrights and the Zane
Greys and the Rex Beaches haven't hit
the mark.
The trouble is that western ira
ditions and the west no longer At.
Perhaps they never did. in the real
sense. For many years Montana WIS
the greatest range state in the Union,
not excepting Texas. and yet the ordi-
nary American conception of thu cow
boy was never realized here. We had
our cowmsn and our range riders. to
bs sure, and they were picturesque
enough, but they hardly lived up to
the popular ideas Of what they should
be-.
The Nick Carter series, the Bealye
books, the wild and vivid tales Of
the days which daring trappers reg
cued lovely maidens from outlaws
and bloody savages. all had their
share in establishing standards sup
posed to belong alone to the west.
gests, II may we'll be that some one
not handicapped with a knowledge OF
the traditions Of the west will write
of 1t rs 1t really is. A story like
that would be an important conrri-
button to literature.-Butte Post.
