All of those parties will find a reasonable excuse, but truly the real party to be blamed for this hideous crime, Is the one who does not raise the voice or vote In protest against such a relic of barbarism.

Of course the prisoner is allowed counsel and he does all he can to free the party: but what can the grand Jury do otherwise than their duty aa called for in the law. as much censure.

The same holds true of the trial jury. Many a man would FOR EVERY COUGH not bring such a verdict even though he knew the party was guilty. But the fact remains. many. I believe that when I have concluded, none of us of competent understanding will longer have a cloak for a murderous self.

I say this with the most Jury findings are based on a conclusion, it is the law. Now the sincere and honest belief and feel JMm ifillil i judge with as honest and fair most of you will so agree when you have duly considered this charge as he can make it, instructs them of their duty according to the law.

This gruesome spectacle has without doubt started forward from the old Mosaic Law, "An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth." But did not our Lord and Savior change this order when he said as quoted above, "The people of old say unto you such, but I say unto you, 'He who smite you on the right cheek, turn to him the left also." Is this beautiful quotation dream words or are they real? Remember, kind reader, this is from no sect or religious body, but from one whose name is signed below and who wishes to accomplish just a little good in this grand old world, and let me assure you in presenting some evidences that this thing is wrong. "No two wrongs ever made one right." Now who Is the executioner of one found guilty of capital punishment? I believe there are those who have died under such convictions Innocently, but let me assume that every one who has been put to death legally is a guilty person. If so, then who is quilty of his or her death as the case may be? Where shall I begin? With the man who throws the electric switch or springs, the trap as public executioner? Shall I commence at the top or the bottom of the- ladder? If one reaches the top usually it is reached by traveling rung after rung until we approach the top, so let us commence at the bottom. First we will say the party has been caught in the very act or with circumstances connected therewith, to warrant the arrest by the proper officer. Surely he will excuse himself because he is doing his duty.
