Criminal Court Building, Chicago,
Sept. 10.?Sentences of life imprison
ment for the murders of fourteen
year-oM Matt Franksend 99 Tears
for kidnapping the boy were meted
oat to Leeb and Leopold by Judge
Caverly today. The youth of the de
fendants, 18 and 19 years, saved them
from the noose. It would have been
the path of least resistance to im
pose the extreme penalty of the law,
- said the judge. In <ftoosing impris
onment instead of death the eourt is
moved by their age. It is not for the
court to say it will not enforce capi
tal punishment, but it is within the
province of the eourt to decline to
impose the sentence of death on per
L'v soon who are not of fufi age. This
seems to bo u line with the progs*!1
of criminal law, all over the world,
and in accordance with the precedents
ia this case. The reeordsof this state
show only two eases, to which the
eourt Is not inclined to make any ad
ditions.
After sentence had bie& pronounc

of the defendants, said that 1* would

Nobody that thinks soberly believes
now that advertising doesn't pay. The
business men too has tried to sell
merchandise without advertising has
found it a hard job. The town that
has bullfcitself up without advertis
ing is, hard to find. The county that
has been made famous as a progres
sive county, has done it by advertis
ing. What is true of a business, - a
tdwn, county, is true of a section cr
state. North Carolina, the most talk
ed or sWte in the Unlbn, has an ex
eeUent-oppertunity to become the
foremost stafe in the Union in many
respects, now.
