The News and Courier say?: "The ease with which ball is obtained In South Carolina la due to the well understood difficulty of convicting murderers. Judges know thnt there is little motive to tbe manslayer to flee aDd so they do not hesitate to consent to his release." Yes; and the well understood difficulty of convicting murderers, la to be found in the easy ball, which is granted to everybody, no matter how aggravating tbe crime. Tbe Judges'ten thousand times more than the Juries, are responsible for light regard which Is paid to human life. Tne juilgos, more than the Juries, are re sponsible for tbe (allure to punish ctlvu against the person. Not until the Judges rtlscbiuge tbelr swor- : duty, need weexpect J irle* todlscbar^e tb?ir du-y In protecting lite. If Judges placed an obligation on the ?ia.v ers of men. greater than the stealers of p'g*. | to account for tbetr deeds, there would b.- ?> few murderer* In court as there are pig ste>i er?. The way Jjdges ^urn murderers loose on the community Is practically a premium cix m order. Until Judges refuse to grant ball, Juries need not be expected to cpovlct. Holding the vle?vg expressed, the Press and Banner believes that Judges, more than all other forces, are responsible for the murders tbat disgrace the State Got Away. Mr. R. 8.
