Judge Hardy entertains conscien-

state of California, although his

Judge Has Power
In sentencing persons<to to the gal

helpless, inaSmuch as the iury's YER
diet made it imperative for him to
pronounce the death penalty devol-

of not guilty by reason of insanity,
Hickman admitted the murder, and
is +2ied by the Jury for one purpose
only-to determine whether cr not
he was sane or insane at the time
he committed the atrocious murder.
In bringing in a verdict that Hick-
man was sane at the time he orut-
ally murdered the Parker child, the
jury : duty ends without any fur

From that point ON, Judge Hardy
would have been the sole and ex-
