BALL LOGICAL CANDIDATE

The Press Is pleased to endorse the candidacy of Dr.
c. D. Ball Of Santa Ana for the senate from the
39tn senatorial district embracing Imperial San Di-
ego, Riverside and Orange counties.
DR.. Ball is well qualified for the office he seeks
having the benefit Of two terms asSembyman, dur
ing which time he has impressed leaders of the state
legislature by his ability
He is of the most highly respected men in
Orange county with record a physician which has
caused him to win high standing among the people
who know him.
In his recent visit here, DR.. Ball declared he is in
favor Of all the legislation in which Imperial county
is interested and proved his words no idle cam
pagn talk by referring to his record in the assembly
Dr.. Ball is staunch supporter of Governor
Young. This should mean much to Imperial county,
which has had better friend than the distn-
guished gentleman who heads the state admins
tration and it is only right that should do part
to provide him with legislature favorable to his de-
sires.
Imperial county will also be serving its best in
terests by supporting Dr. Ball This is agricultural
community, and though physician by profession DR.,
Ball is keeny interested in farming, not merely
hobby, but with the idea of aiding constructive legisa
tion that will be Of assistance to those who till the SOIL
The Press recognizes the high calibre of the other
gentleman who seeks the office in opposition to Dr.
Ball. but believes that the latter is deserving the
support of the people of this county and
them capably in every particular.

SANE AND INSANE

There IS criticism Of CalifOrnia's revised criminal
code for permitting two pleas in murder cases-'not
guilty and mot guilty by of insanity Either
plea may be offered both together; and in the latter
case, the code calls for two separate trials.
This certainly seems to complicate things for the
prosecution and give the killer still better chance of
going free whether he deserves it or not.
Not guilty by reason of insanity is plea that
first came into national notice during the trial Of
George Remus, the Cincinnati bootegger, who main
tanned that he sane before he killed his wife in
sane at the time, and again Immediately after
ward-and got away with it.
Jures being what they often are, this seems to
put d new premium on murder If such plea is to
be permitted whether with trial two least it
should be provided that the question Of sanity be taken
OUT Of the hands Of highly paid private experts and
be determined by an official board Of experts main
tanned on salary by the state for that purpose.
