Still; what is to be gained by subjecting a woman to the horrible, brutal, savage death penalty of hanging? Can we say it has a deterrent effect upon other criminals? Apparently not, because in the states ' where they have no death penalties there are no more mur- ders than in the states where they | have death penalties. Furthermore, in all history, hor- rible punishments have not pre- vented crime. They have merely brutalized the community or given ovidence ' of an already ' brutalized | ag community. The ancient penalties of Boiling in oil and flaying alive have been abandoned, but hanging still per- sists as a survival of savagery. If the woman is a menace to the community, she would remove that menace by suicide, and Why prévent her from removing that menace i order to preserve her and hang her to satisfy our savage instincts? Poes the state set a Christian xample by committing murder for tirder, when OChrist taught His flrotlowers to abandon the ancient, brutal and brutalizing policy of an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth? ,Does the state set a civilized ex- ample in ¢ommitting murder for i murder? The woman murdered in a fren- zy of anger or jealousy or fear or hatred, She had been raised by a good Christian " farnily; she had beeén a ‘harmless person during her life, ap- parently law-abiding; but overcome by some storm of eniotlon she com- mitted murder. ‘Biit the state murders in cold premeditation, to km‘mu it murders as cruelly and infent and finally it insists upon killing with savage methods rather than allowing the woman to put herseif out of the way. The state kills not as a deterrent, | for there is no more of a detefrent in hahging than there was in flay- ing or bailing In oil. The state kills in the un-Chris- (tian, unecivilized spirit- of revenge, and insists upon killing in the |savage and cruel way that will sat- isfy that vindictive spirit of re- venge. " Arizona is a fine state, inhabited by a fine, intelligent, modern pop- ulation. | Arizona should avoid the stigma of hanging a ‘woman. The woman is to be hanged only ause of Inherited convention. |vived from earlier days, from dark- er days. Is it not about time for modern Amerijcan - states to emerge from the Dark Ages and discard the cus- toms of the Dark Ages? Let hanging follow the unavail- ing cruelties of flaying and boiling in oil. Let Arizona pe one of the civi- lized states to discard this survival of savagery. Arizena should not be governed by the precedents of .an oulgrown ; and surely the men of Ari- zona should not hang a woman. WILLIAM RANDOLPH HEARST el B PR MRS.
