LIFE IMPRISONMENT PICTURED
MORE TERRIBLE THAN DEATH
Judge Marcus Kavanaugh, of
Chicago, considers life imprisonment
more terrible punishment
than hanging. Some days ago
in sentencing a white murderer
named Welcome to spend his remaining
days in the Illinois penitentiary,
Judge Kavanaugh contrasted
death with the tortured
soul of a life convict i?i his solitary
cell, and told the prisoner
that it is not correct to regard
the death penalty as the most
punishment that can be inflicted.
"The instinctive unreasoning
horror of mankind regards the
death sentence as a severe punishment,"
said Judge Kavanaugh.
"This idea is not trup
You are now to receive p sterner
punishment. Your victim died
but once. You will die a hundred
times; you will suffer more
the day you put on your prison
clothes than she did in her death.
After that there will be only the
hopeless, painful years from day
to day, from month to month,
stretching out forever and in
agony.
"In four oi* five years the
eternal solitude and silence will
begin to crush in upon you like
an iron weight. You hear that
street car bell ringing in the
street as it passes now. You
will remember it in after years
as the mist exquisite music. It
will mean hurrying crowds that
go where they will and do as
they please; it will mean the
greatest of all pleasures ?freedom.
You can only dream of it
by day and by night, and your
dream will be torture unspeakable."
The Japanese Way.
Formosa is an island off the
cost of China, but now owned by
Japan, which is applying there
the Japanese way. The interesting
thing about Formosa is not
its peaceful, rice-growing tame
lowlands, but a score of volcanic j
mountains 4,000 feet high inhabited
by dwarf aboriginees.

but they have bought Mausers.
They are just the color of the
gray volcanic soil and they wholly
refuse to accept the tax gatherer
of Japanese rule. Fierce, active,
able to climb anywhere, good
shots, having no wants and few
virtues but courage, they hold
their mountain valleys against
all comers. So Japan has begun
the task of conquest. The
Japanese forces have brought
300 miles of barbed wire fencing,
fenced in the territory in a great
loop from coast to coast, set up
dynamos, worked them with
water power from the streams
and charged the whole 300 miles
so it is death to the touch.
Around this is the Japanese force,
with mountain howitzers and
Catlings. Each day a section of
barbed wire is moved inward,
the jungle well searched, the
natives gathered in and a junction
made with the dynamos. The
next day the electric cage moves
again. This is to go on week by
week until these aboriginees are
driven into the sea or surrender.
It is the simple, efficient Japanese
way. It is sixteen years since
Japan acquired Formosa from
China.
