LINCOLN , Iarch 13.-Speclnl.-Tho ( ) fate
or the bill abolishing the death penalty In
Nebraska Is still hanging In the balance In
the senate , although time vote hy which the
bill was agreed to In the commitee ot the
whole today Indicates that It has just the
necessnr seventeen votes to PaS It anti no
more. The senate gave up several honr to
its discussion , and the debate was by far the
most interesting and animated listened to
eurlng the present session
Senator Telt opened the debate by saying
that he hoped the substitute oferell by Sen.
ator Watson would fail . lie believed that
the original bill , providing that the execution -
ton of all conlemned ! murderers should lake
place within Limo walls of the state liemmiten-
tary , was a goo one. The state already
has upon Its statute books he said , a law
giving the Jury discretionary powers In fixing
time death penalty. The jury may , If It elects
fix the punishment at hnllrlsonment for life .
Under time law there Is but little danger that
men tried for mlrder will be sentenced to
ecath unless the protecton of society abso-
lulely demanded theIr removal from the
world.
Two years ngD. said Senator Toitt . the
propositon to abolsh capital Ilunlshment
was before the legislature. I was fully dis-
cussed , considered carefully all finally re-
jected. There I no evidence to show that
public sentment has chaugel' during the
past two yars. There Is no popular demand
at the present time for time abolition of capi-
tal ptmnlsimnment
Society contInued the senator , Is a queer
thin , Civilization I a queer arrangement ,
I ts the outgrowth of the necessities of man.
Ian Is ono of the mOlt IJecular animals
ever created. I the first pall had not fallout
from their original state , If their descendants
were nol disposed to encroach upon the
right of others to enjoy life , liberty anti the
pursuit of imappiness governments would not
hI nNessary : but time eXllerlence of manklll
hu shown that I Is absolutely necessary
that governments should be instituted and
that punishments should be meteJ out to
those who Ilsobe ) ' the regulations or gov-
ermnent. I seemed to him that I the sena-
tore could have time experience of others
brought more nearly home to them ( they
wommld not so readily favor a measure calculated -
culnted to allow the wretches who dehlber-
delber-
ately plan to take human life to longer en-
ctmnmbe : limo earth
Senalor Akers favored the bill to abolsh
the dealh penal ) He claimed that hundreds
and thousands of men were hanged every
year who were Innoenl of murder. He
would rather that all murderers shoull be
confined In prison for life , with no hope of
reprieve , than that a single Innoccnt man
shoull pay the death penalty. I
Senator Sloan made an elaborate ant telling -
Ing argument against the bill . He pointed
to time fact that but four states In the minion
had abolished the death penalty , whie forty ,
after the experIence or scores of years had
retained it. For the crime of deliberate
murler the inflIction of the death penaly was
the only adequate punishment.
After the noon recess Senator Hichcock
re 1met the debate by speaking In favor 01
the bill . making the point that even I I
were granted that a murderer Is not fit to
live , he Is not fit to die.
Senator Campbell opposed the bill and took
issue with the statement that If a murderer
Is not fit to live he ts not fit to die He
claimed that as long as a criminal had no
fear of death ho would remain In life har-
dene1 to all thoughts of repentance. 'I I
Senator Cnltwel said that ' hI had been '
opposed to capital punishment for nearly a' '
quarter of A eetnry , but the bill under con-
sderaton ! Invoh'e many features that were
not understood. He was therefore opposed
to the bill.
Senator Crane favored the bill In a brIer
argument. Senator Sprecher was friendly to
the bill. The debate was clod by Senators
Watson and Teft speakIng for and against
the bilL
bi.
A motion to adopt 'Vatson's bill a a sub-
sUuto for the original bill was adopled.
The committee rose with the recommendation
that the bill do pass , the vote standing 17 to
14. The senate adopted the report.
The opponents of the bill claim that a
careful poll of the senate shows that there
are not seventeen senators who wIll vote to
enact It Into a law. On the other hand , the
frIends of the measure claim that their can-
\'ass of tIme senate shows a large majority for
