LIFE IMPRISONMENT

Richard Loeb and Nathan Leo pold, the two young Chicago million aires sons who kidnapped and mur- dered the Franks boy, were sen- tenced to life Imprisonment today after pleading guilty to premeditated murder. The sentence of "99 years" for the kidnapping is practically the same as life imprisonment on this count also.
 Judge Caverly gave them the lightest possible sentence under the circumstances, unless possible "sen- tencing" to lunatic asylum could have been termed lighter.
 American justice now goes on trial. We are to see whether these two youths really remain in prison the remainder of their lives or whether they are parolled after a comparatively short time.
 If the claim of the defense In nit igation of punishment was worth considering, then the pair are men aces to society if they ever obtain release from prison walls.
 The defense fought against the death penalty; the defense won But life imprisonment is a heavy sentence if 1t really means what i says. The trouble is, 1t may not Murderers as rule greatly prefer a life sentence to execution. The! are actuated by the belief that where there is life there is hope for free dom, some time in someway.

THE GILPATRIC METHOD

The more that becomes known re- garding the Gilpatric bank wrecking the worse 1t becomes, After a rep resentative for the federal comp troller had visited Putnam and made an investigation, and went back to Washington for a conference, he was told to return to the Connecticut city and take the public and the stock holders into his confidence as to the findings.
 And then the public and stock holders learned that the bank Is S7OO,OOO short, that Gilpatric's thefts total s9OO,OOO. What Gilpatric did with all the money is not known.
 The government discovered how Gilpatric fleeced the bank during a period of seven years, He took money from depositors, entered the amounts in their pass books and pocketed the proceeds: the bank records were juggled to show securi- ties were unpaid when they were really paid, and then Gilpatric an- nexed the money when it was forth coming to pay the supposed unpaid amounts; a third method was the forgery of notes, the money for which went into his pocket.
 And through it all the directors of the bank had such confidence in Gil. patric's integrity and probity that they permitted him to be the whole works. Now the stockholders vii be assessed at least s150,000 to make up the losses of the bank.

MURDER CONVICTIONS

A letter-writer to the New York Herald-Tribune declares that 8 Chautauqua lecturer in his home town, Monckton, N. B., stated a few days ago that 27 murders had been committed in Great Britain the previ- ous month, and that of the number, 26 had been arrested and executed and one sent to a lunatic asylum. But the same month nearly 100 mur- ders had been committed in the United States, of which 25 had been arrested, and none executed, as their trials had not yet taken place.
 We do not know the accuracy of these figures, but in general way they bear out the comparative sys- tems in the two countries.
 The New Brunswick man adds that he regrets to say Canada is fol- lowing in the footsteps of the United States; that several murders have occurred in his province, and that ir once case the jury brought in yer dict of guilty, when new trial waS allowed on technicality, resulting in four disagreements, and the de. fendant is still at large.
 The situation is New Brunswick however, does not bear out the re. cent trial, conviction and execution of the young American in Montreal who shot and killed another during a barroom brawl and while drunk The latter conviction was even swift CT than the English speed system,

GREAT BASEBALL SEASON

The baseball league races this year have no difficulty in competing with politics for liveliness. The precedents of three years are being broken, much to the satisfaction of the fans outside of Manhattan.
 The race in the American league looks like a typographical error so far as Washington is concerned. But there they are, right on top, with the Yankees and Tygers closely follow ing. If Washington wins the "gon- falon," as the sports writers are fond of calling it, Walter Johnson will add to the interest of the world series enormously.
 In the National league Brooklyn is | contesting first honors with the Giants, who probably thought they had a mortgage upon the pennant, but are likely to be d1slllusloned al last. But the Pittsburgh Pirates are also near at hand, and have the ad- vantage of being required to play several more games than the two teams slightly ahead of them.
 The races in these leagues are the closest in many seasons, and a wholesome and widespread interest has been stimulated. This is good for the game and the public takes kindly to leadership outside of the two New York teams, which have had more money to spend for good players than the other teams, yet al last are finding out that it takes more than money to monopolize su. periority.

FIRPO, PERJURY AND BOXING

Luis Angel Firpo faces charge of perjury and a hearing has been set for Sept. IS, four days after he is to enter the boxing ring with Harry Wills at Boyles Thirty Acres in Jer- sey City.
 Canon Chase and organizations af- filiated with him went after the Ar genuine prize fighter on the perjury matter and brought about the charge. But it seems Canon Chase is not satisfied; he wants the boxing bout prevented also.
 It appears that the main idea in back of the whole proceeding was to stop the boxing bout, the perjury charge being incidental. But the laws of New Jersey permit boxing bouts, and we think the best way for Canon Chase and his organizations 10 go about 1t would be to induce New Jersey to change it's law.
 So far as perjury is concerned, 1t has nothing to do with boxing. If Firpo were a merchant nobody in his senses would advocate psdlocking his business because of the perjury charge. The boxing bout is legal business in New Jersey. Personally we are not interested in 1t and would not attend even on press pass If it were being held nearby; but facts are facts, and common sense remains common sense. Firpo is entitled to his day in court on the preJury charge, but is also entitled to follow his occupation as bruiser in such states as permit the occupation.

A POSSIBLE CHARTER CHANGE

New Britain Is confronted with a problem that gives to the fire and police boards complete power over appointments to the various depart ments and full administrative con- trol, as the result of change in the charter several years ago following the elimination of the civil service system.
 It is common belief that these supreme powers were given to the fire and police boards unintentional- ly; but as we are faced with coadi- ton and not the circumstances that brought it about. it might be worth while calling the attention Of the city authorities to the situation with view of having the charter revision committee, soon to be appointed, consider the matter and recommend a change if deemed advisable.
 The fire and police boards are ap- pointed by the mayor The concen- traitor of power in these bodies, in the opinion of many observers, gives to the executive indirect but none the less powerful influence in the di- rection of the fire and police depart ments, This, it is said, was not the original intention of the framers of the provision in the charter relating to these boards.
 The supremacy of the fire board over all details in connection with the fire department has been officially recognized by the mayor and com mon council after the eoHs1Son coun'
