Murders Steadily on the Increase
Since Dr. Andrew D. White, former
president of Cornell, returned from his
post as United States ambassador at
Berlin, he haa devoted a large part of
his time to a sr-idy of crime and crim
inals. In an interview printed n the
Chicago Inter Ocean bv Karl Kitcnen.
Dr. White is quoted as saying:
"Before the first day of October. 1312.
iO.OM persons will be murdered within
the borders of the United States, yet
fewer than 116 persona will pay Uie pen
aity for those crimes. This la not a
Dim arises, but a statement baaed on
statistics which L have been gathering
during the last twenty years. Of their
accuracy there can be no doubt. These
wholesale murders and the lax adminis
tration of our criminal laws are the most
disgraceful srvtla that confront our coun
try today."
Once- starteil on the suMect wbtch ha
la so seriously investigating Dr. White
became Intensely in earnest and slab
orated ha views:
"I repeat that this annual wholesale
murder is the most disgraceful evil la
America today, and conditions are rap
dly becoming worse," he oontnued. "Ten
year ago there were only 11" murders to
l.uuil.jM, today thars are Tan years
ago one In every seventy-four cases waa
punished, today only ana In eighry-six
meets the penalty prescribed by law.
joke. In that great document it ia
stated that ail men are endowed by the
Creator with certain inailenable rights:
that among these are life, liberty and
the pursuit of happiness. Tet without Ufa
liberty and the pursuit of happiness are,
of course. Impossible. The United Stares
today has the highest percentage of mur
ders of any country in the world. Even
southern Italy, with lta Camornets and
Mafias, does not have as many murders
.n proportion to the population aa our
country.
"Tha only way for us to put an end
to this disgraceful evil la to reform and
administer our criminal laws aa they are
administered In England." he said with
earnestness and conviction. "The conduct
of most of our murder trials ia a dis
grace to our manhood, and the abuse of
the appeal Is even mora disgraceful. One
has only to familiarize himself with ex
isting conditions in London and New
York to appreciate what I say. Rarely are
there more than a do sen ' men charged
with murder awaiting trial in London.
In New York at the present time, so I
am informed, there are between thirty
five and forty men charged with mur
der awaiting trial. Yet the two cities j
are about tha um aizs. Hara in New
York state there are convicted mur
derers who were sentenced to death more
than a year ago still awaiting final action

Adventures of Piute Pete
j
In Lincoln. ECan., one evening last weei.
a young man asked a pretty IS-year-olii
girl to go for a ride, and when they hai
reached a dark spot in the woods, he
jumped out of the buggy, gave a whistle
to a crowd of men concealed in the
bushes, who nprang out. dragged the g:rl
out of the buggy, stripped her1 of her
clothes, and applied a coat of tar and
feathers.
Then they put her in the buggy and
her escort drove her home.
They ciaim as a reason for their deed
that the girl had been saying uncompli
mentary things ahout other siria in Lin
coln. Nothing else! She had committed
no greater crime than talking too much,
and If every one who talks too much
were treated similarly the streets of even"
city and country hamlet would be MI leu
with animated feather beds.
There ?nod men who sought to reform a
woman whose sin is never aa great as
theirs, are seeking shelter behind other
women; they assert that the woman slan

the tar and feaiher bed; that they could
