that in many of our States there
are more executions for m urder by
the people than by the courts; more
lynchings than legal hanging or elec
trocution.
And the police can go further
with truth. According to the sta
t stics of the American Bar Asasocia

per cent of all the oases of our
courts involving a penttentiaiy of

number the new trial is granted
not beacuse of a question affect

of the prisoner, but because of a
purely technical point of dispute in
the conduct of the case!
Do you grasap the significance of
this statement? In nearly half of the
criminal cases in American court it

practice either on the part of the
lawyer or the judge.
There were 131,951 murders in
this country between the years
1885 and 1904. In only- one case in
sixty six was the perpetrator
executed by law. In other words in
only 2.000 cases m the entire list
the death penalty decreed by
the courts. But we are not done. In
2,000 more ases the death sen

1323.93 1 people.
In these 19 year as many persons
were lynched for murder as were
executed by the law.
And in many States, the number of
murderers that were hanged by
the oeoDle wos twice a great as
the number banged by the courts.
These are amazing figures, the
more amazing wuen we consoaer
o'her factors. They do not represent
the total number of our lynchings by
more than 1,300. In this period 3
337 persons were executed by lynch
law, according to the most trust

subject. Most of us have accepted tne

that the only reason on earth why

that he can not afford anything bet
